The appearance of the Ring Spirit, or the Flame Man, is equivalent to pouring a basin of cold water on Li Zhigao's head, who has become more and more proud recently, although it has given Li Zhigao a lot of benefits, but all the benefits are not as unpleasant as the so-called ten-year limit.

Although there is a good saying, people are forced out, and if you don't go crazy, you can't live, etc., but Li Zhigao has always liked to live a quiet life, and he doesn't like to have restrictions and persecution, just like he plays some time-limited strategy games, obviously he can play the game before the final time, but he still has to use modifiers to remove the time limit, which is a leisurely cheating game.

To put it bluntly, Li Zhigao is used to being free and casual, and he doesn't like people forcing him to do things, otherwise he wouldn't be like that before he got the ring, although he has various reasons, but in the final analysis, it is his own personality.

After getting the ring, although he is very busy every day, it can be said that he has no leisure for a moment, but in fact, he is happy and forgets to be busy, which is like those big CEOs, who can't say how tired and busy they are, but in fact, that is what they like to be busy, and their busyness itself is a kind of enjoyment.

Fortunately, Li Zhigao has an advantage, that is, it is easy to accept the reality, and he will not do useless anger and protest, besides, as a senior cheating player, he knows that most of the things like this restriction are to force the protagonist to keep moving forward, don't slack off, and when it comes to that critical moment, there must be room for bargaining.

After thinking about it carefully, when talking to the flame man, although he said that he would open a new map and go to the new world in 21 years, he also said that there were other additional rewards, right? This is actually a hidden condition, maybe as long as a certain condition is met, it is not impossible to prolong the time in this world...... bar.

Anyway, with this encounter. Li Zhigao had to get busy again, after all, ten years seems to be a long time, but in fact it is very short, especially to use China as a base in the early 20th century, which is a huge pit in itself, if you don't hurry up and cheat. It is very difficult to get 16 million square kilometers of land in 10 years.

Quite simply, China's traditional geographical area is so large, if you want to expand the land, where can you fight? It's nothing more than one to the north and the other to the south, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, but all in all, it is easier to fight north, but then you have to fight with the Russian old Maozi in advance. Coupled with the Japanese devils who are eyeing each other, and the British who still never sets, this is definitely a difficulty above the difficulty level, if you don't hurry up and cheat, can you do it?

Since time is pressing, Li Zhigao must make full use of his cheating resources.

In Li Zhigao's mind, in this era of 1911, if only to unify the whole country. It should not be difficult, but the difficult thing is how to integrate the resources of the whole country as soon as possible. Then concentrate the forces of the whole country and fight out.

Although Li Zhigao has increased the amount of personal space and the number of crossings, these are not really honor guards.

You must know that although Li Zhigao's carry-on space has more than 40,000 cubic meters, it can transport more than 46,000 tons of goods at a time, and four times a day, that is, more than 180,000 tons of goods can be transported back and forth at most. This may seem like a lot. But if it comes to the national level, this amount is very small, and it has to be kept secret, plus it can't be faked to others, so the two worlds import and export 180,000 tons a day. It can only be an ideal value. After all, Li Zhigao can't do anything else every day, just be the captain of the transportation brigade.

Xinyi clothes are a good thing, but they can only ensure that they are not easy to be killed, or play personal invincibility, but it will not help in the national war, and it can play a morale-boosting role at most, so it can basically be ignored.

The rest, the most useful, should be the soul control system.

No matter what time it is, the most expensive thing is talent! Li Zhigao worked for so long in the late Qing Dynasty and got so many advanced equipment and materials, but the progress was still slow, and in the final analysis, there was a lack of qualified talents, not only qualified scientific research personnel and industrial workers, but also qualified management personnel.

Don't look at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there were also many capable people in China, who left a lot of shining points in history, but if you really want to compare, those capable people in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China are not comparable with the talents of modern society in later generations.

At least Li Zhigao thinks that if there are no time constraints, even if there is no ring, he will wear his soul alone to this era of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, even if he can't achieve great things, at least he can live a good life as a rich man, without him, this is the asymmetric advantage of modern people in later generations in terms of knowledge and overall historical situation.

Therefore, Li Zhigao felt that the top priority at the moment was to return to the modern society as soon as possible, get the talented people first, and have professional, reliable and loyal talents to help him, let alone ten years, as long as he was given eight years, he would dare to say that he would defeat Japan and Russia at the same time.

Just do it, anyway, you can travel back and forth four times a day, and there are four coordinate points, so Li Zhigao doesn't have to make any preparations, give his subordinates any advice or anything, anyway, going back and forth between the two worlds is as convenient as commuting to and from work.

As usual, Li Zhigao went directly from the Taiping Mansion in the Republic of China era to the secret base in Durban, South Africa.

Located on the outskirts of northern Durban, the site is a private estate covering more than 40,000 acres, but nominally an emerging satellite city of Durban, or a development zone. The entire development plan is called the Blue Light Project, and the building developer is the original Nanxing Jewelry, which is now the Nanxing Construction and Development Group under the Nanxing Group, and the specific construction party is a famous construction group with an official background in Chinese mainland - China Construction Group.

The main function of this so-called private satellite city is to locate in the tourist resort villa area, as well as warehousing and logistics, so there is not only a private harbor private villa area and a private beach, but also a large number of warehouses and an expanding medium-sized private marina with an estimated throughput of 5 million TEU. Now, the development has entered the second phase of the project, and it is expected that after the completion of the second phase of the project, it can officially apply to become a satellite city called Blue Light.

Of course, all of this is a trick to facilitate Li Zhigao's smuggling of materials back and forth and serve Li Zhigao's smuggling activities in time and space.

Here is a coordinate point of Li Zhigao, and in the past, Li Zhigao was smuggled nearly seventy percent. All were carried out through this private territory, and only thirty percent were carried out in a secret warehouse of a branch in Chinese mainland.

As for why we want to cooperate with China State Construction Group, in addition to the fact that China Construction Group is indeed very cost-effective in construction, there is another important reason, that is, through China Construction Group, Li Zhigao can connect with domestic arms manufacturing companies. It is possible to purchase Chinese light weapons and equipment in large quantities, as well as various mechanical equipment, at favorable prices.

Not to mention, there are many things that you can't buy in China, but if you return to the country, as an intermediary agent or smuggler, you can easily buy all kinds of contraband made in China that China can't buy itself, but for the time being, this aspect is only on the line, and the specific arms smuggling has not really been launched, after all, China's caution is also known to the world.

In fact, more than 40,000 acres of private territory can be obtained. Even in the name of building a satellite city, it is a very powerful thing, and the reason why Li Zhigao can do this is because he has tossed up to now, not to mention that in the early 20th century, he was already a powerful man in all directions, even in modern society, he is a rich man with actual assets of more than 10 billion US dollars. However, because Li Zhigao is usually very low-key, the company has never been listed. Therefore, the mainstream society in the 21st century knows very little about him, but it does not prevent the relevant institutions from paying attention to him.

After all. The 21st century is already a relatively transparent world, and so many gold jewels have recently flowed out of Li Zhigao's hands on the market, and it would be self-deception to say that Li Zhigao could not be noticed at all.

In fact, Li Zhigao's company has been raided by the South African government more than once in the past. It has always been the focus of the South African government, after all, a large amount of gold jewelry has been flowing out of the market recently, although there is no definite evidence, but it can basically be determined that it is from Li Zhigao's company, but it is a pity that it has been checked for so long. It has not caught any sore feet, and there is no reliable evidence, but it has made Nanxing bigger and bigger, and has become a well-known multinational enterprise in the jewelry industry in one fell swoop.

Of course, if you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse for it, and this sentence is not only useful in China, but also in foreign countries. If the South African government really wants to convict Li Zhigao, there can be various reasons. But the problem is that the South African government is not the United States, let alone China, and its own partisan and ethnic issues are very complicated, and it is not a strong government. In addition, Li Zhigao's rise was so fast that before the South African government could react, Nanxing relied on a large number of gold jewelry from unknown sources to build a strong network.

In other words, in less than a year, through the cooperation with Harrison, Li Zhigao and his Southern Star Group have become a significant group in South Africa, and because of a large number of cooperation with Li Zhigao, Harrison's company has also become a well-known local security company, and the two are closely united, which is already a force that cannot be easily shaken.

What's more, Li Zhigao's Southern Star Company has recently linked up with the Inkata Liberal Party and has become a strong supporter of this party.

However, although there is no problem for the time being, after all, the Nanxing Group has already fallen into the eyes of the South African government, and it will be more troublesome to smuggle it in the future, and the reason why the Chinese side is reluctant to agree to smuggle arms is because of its concerns about the South African government.

In the past, because Li Zhigao has always focused on the world of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, in addition to asking for materials and selling gold and jewelry, he is basically the big shopkeeper, and the specific group business, or normal business, is handed over to Bai Jingshan to be responsible, of course, it is precisely because of this that Nanxing Group will develop so well.

To put it bluntly, today's Nanxing Group is already a fairly complete modern enterprise, even if Li Zhigao does not do smuggling, he can live well only by relying on those legitimate businesses. In fact, Bai Jingshan has reminded Li Zhigao more than once and asked him to give up the smuggling business, but it is a pity that Bai Jingshan does not know the secret of the ring, and does not know that for Li Zhigao, all this is not worth mentioning compared to the great cause in the world at the beginning of the twentieth century, not to mention that there are still the urging and restrictions of the flame man.

Bai Jingshan has long been accustomed to Li Zhigao's elusiveness, so although Li Zhigao called him over in the middle of the night, but out of the consciousness of his subordinates, he still obediently left his wife, drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself, and immediately returned to the company to report.

Who knew that after rushing to the company, he learned that he had to prepare a private jet immediately. And after completing the formalities, Li Zhigao wants to return to China immediately!

It should be said here that Li Zhigao has not actually become a South African citizen now, but only has a South African green card, that is, permanent residency, and in essence he is still Chinese

"Leaving now?" Bai Jingshan said in surprise.

"That's right. Let's go now. Li Zhigao nodded solemnly and looked at his watch, "It's two o'clock in the evening, and the time difference between South Africa and China is six hours, which means that it's only eight o'clock in the evening on the Chinese side, and it takes at least fifteen hours to fly to Beijing. I want the fastest plane! ”

"The fastest." Bai Jingshan thought for a while, "It just so happens that Harrison just bought a Citation X plane recently, this plane is currently the fastest flying business jet, with a speed of Mach 0.92, and it only takes twelve hours to go to Beijing from here, do you want to borrow this plane from him?" ”

"Good. Just use this! Li Zhigao nodded, "Do it immediately!" ”

Harrison because of Li Zhigao's relationship. Relying on the resale of arms and all kinds of machinery and equipment, he has also made a fortune recently, and he is about to become a family with Li Zhigao's company, but it should not be a problem to just borrow it to get off the plane.

In fact, Li Zhigao obviously has coordinate points in China. There is a reason why it is so troublesome to fly.

Li Zhigao's whereabouts in this world so far have been low-key living in South Africa, if he wants to return to a bright China. There always needs to be a legal way to have a proper record.

In the past, although Li Zhigao also went back to China several times through the coordinate points, he went directly to factories in some remote areas to buy materials directly, and few people knew about his situation, and the impact was not great, but this time it was different, he wanted to return to China in a bright and bright way.

The reason why he wants to return to China in a bright and bright way is because Li Zhigao wants to take the opportunity to go back to his hometown to see his parents this time, after all, he has been out for so long, except for an occasional phone call, he has never been back, this time he just took the opportunity to go back to see his parents, and after officially returning to China, he can also be active everywhere in China in the future.

Although there are many Chinese in South Africa, it is mainly Taiwanese and Hong Kong, and most of them are businessmen and craftsmen, which are not in line with the high-end talents he needs.

Li Zhigao has thought about it a long time ago, and at present, there are four categories that he needs most.

The first category is high-level scientific researchers and senior technicians who can skillfully use CNC machine tools. Not to mention the importance of scientific researchers, some old academicians are now very old, and they can always find someone who has just died to get over; As for the mechanic, the senior technician who can use the CNC machine tool is the first choice, if the number of people is small, some of the legendary old eight-level fitters in the past, eight-level welders and other old people, you can also look for it, and you can always find a natural death or accidental death. Obviously, scientific researchers and senior technicians are the top priority and belong to the highest priority level of talents.

The second category is naturally all kinds of military staff officers, preferably from China's high-level military academies in this world, and the active-duty soldiers who have actually led soldiers must be at the division and regiment level, even if there are not many such people who die accidentally, there are always a few that can be found. In addition, some of the older generation of revolutionary predecessors with actual combat experience, such as those who participated in the Korean War or the Vietnam Self-Defense Counterattack, are also quite good candidates, and such people are generally older, and there will always be more deaths or accidental deaths, so it should not be difficult to find.

The third category is naturally business administration talents, and this kind of person must be a senior talent from Harvard and Cambridge, at least a doctorate or something. In the past, these people could not only make Li Zhigao's business empire more perfect, but also be called government administrators with a little involvement. You must know that in fact, the administrative personnel of the government are not much different from the business personnel in theory, and some business elites are actually better able to do administrative work, but the administrative personnel may not be able to do a good job of business elites.

The fourth category is educators, that is, senior teachers. Li Zhigao understands very well that a good technical expert may not be a good teacher, after all, teaching and educating people and studying technology are actually two different things. Modern teachers with modern educational concepts and rich experience can improve the education level of the whole people at the fastest speed, and educate the most useful elite talents for themselves. In other words, modern educators are more efficient at teaching knowledge than those of the early twentieth century. Of course, because of the limited number of places and the time limit, it is impossible for Li Zhigao to even want teachers in primary schools and kindergartens, so he only plans to find some high-level university teachers and professional technical school teachers, with these people, he can cultivate enough middle and low-level skilled workers and various technical arms for himself as soon as possible.

These four types of people include scientific research, military, economics and education, as long as these four types of people are high-level elites, coupled with the modern equipment provided by Li Zhigao, as long as they go there, as long as they spread a little, it is basically enough for rapid industrial upgrading.

Originally, when Li Zhigao asked someone to inform him to borrow a plane, he was in a bed battle with a few hot girls, knowing that Li Zhigao was going to borrow a plane to return to China, so he agreed without saying a word, not only agreed, but he also left a few hot girls and ran over in person, planning to go to China with Li Zhigao.

"Anyway, I went back to China to visit relatives, why did you go with me?" Li Zhigao asked strangely.

"There's a reason, of course." Harrison smiled, then looked left and right, "Get on the plane first, and then talk about it on the plane." (To be continued......)
