In the twenties, the United States had an annual surplus in foreign trade, reaching a maximum of $1.1 billion! Under the banner of an open-door policy, the United States gradually opened up the internal markets of the great powers, and a large number of American goods were sold to Europe and Asia, in exchange for a large amount of foreign exchange.

The world's gold flows to New York, the United States accounts for half of the world's gold reserves, and New York's status as the world's financial center is unshakable.

Correspondingly, the amount of U.S. foreign investment is increasing every year, and hundreds of millions of dollars flow from New York to the rest of the world every year. The new type of South China is also one of the directions of the flow of the dollar.

At the same time, all major US multinationals have made money from foreign trade and investment, including a share of the William consortium. Robles Securities had more than $50 million worth of gold stored in its underground vaults.

Some of it was brought back from Siberia, and some of it was made back by the Stuart and Oppenheimer families who jointly invested in Anglo-American companies, and in addition to diamonds, gold mining was also the main business of Anglo-American companies. More of the gold was earned back by Situ Nan from the oil business.

Because Nanhua won the war, Robles not only did not collect Nanhua's debts, but also actively borrowed from Nanhua, and Nanhua became the country with the largest foreign investment from Robles.

This is all good news for South China. The oil discoveries on the island of Sumatra have strengthened the national credibility of South China, and while not necessarily all of them are interested in South China's oil resources, a growing number of foreign companies are already feeling the heat of that capital from South China's ambitious industrial plans.

At present, the large purchase of American aircraft and equipment by South Chinese people has attracted the attention of the American business community. Some medium-sized companies with good strength also hope to get a piece of the South China development pie and welcome the arrival of the South China delegation.

Stuart told Stuart with a smile that after he negotiated with U.S. Secretary of State Dawes, the U.S. government was willing to provide South China with a $100 million commercial loan.

Obviously, Andrew has a lot to do behind this, and as the US Treasury Secretary, he has a lot to say.

"Although it's just an intention, it's not completely determined, but this thing can't be run." Szeto Meton said with a smile, "The Americans see the potential of South China and want to improve the international status of the dollar. It's not surprising that they are willing to spend money, and anyway, the money ends up in their pockets. ”

Not counting the business cooperation of the companies under the William Consortium, there will be four or five billion US dollars of foreign investment in South China in the next few years, which is indeed terrifying! It made Stuart Maiden excited.

This mentality is exactly the same as that of the GDP officials who just opened up a hundred years later. After all, holding state power and seeking to seize the country are completely different faces, and the attitude towards foreign capital is naturally completely different.

Looking at Situ Meiden's smile, Situ Nan thought to himself, he was still worried about Situ Meiden's political talents.

However, compared with the Dawes Plan of the United States and the later Young Plan, billions of dollars were invested in Germany. At present, the United States has not invested much money in South China.

"Have you thought of how to spend it?" Situ Nan asked.

"Part of the infrastructure construction, part of the army, part of the government's public expenditure, part of education." Situ Meiden laughed.

He is really not afraid of borrowing now, although the South China government may have a hard time after taking on a pile of debts, but compared to building the country's industry. A little money is nothing.

Obviously, this is a lot of money, and each department has scored one point, and it will definitely have to go through some bargaining when you go back.

Most of Nanhua's resources are controlled by several major consortia, such as the US-China consortium, and the heavy responsibility of national industrial construction also falls on a few large-scale projects jointly built by these major consortia and large foreign companies. Even a large number of soldiers were discharged. Transferred to the reserves, these people were also arranged by the Meihua Company.

The South China government does not have much money in its hands, and it will not be responsible for all aspects, so it is inevitable that there will be some omissions. After all, it is taking the capitalist road.

After hearing that Situ Meiden was willing to spend some of the money to invest in education, Situ Nan nodded reassuringly, and did not delve into how to use this international loan??????

"Revisit. Today's scenery is better than ever! ”

The South China delegation visited New York's Chinatown, where gongs and drums were noisy and joyful, and the unique lion dance custom in the south was also brought out, attracting many audiences.

Even the police in New York were dispatched to do a good job of security on the streets, looking at those jubilant Chinese, their eyes were a little complicated.

"Today, Nanhua has become the backing of Chinatowns all over the world. In the future, Chinatown affairs will be the focus of our diplomatic work. Especially Chinatowns in the United States. It is especially important. ”

Szeto told Foreign Minister Chen Youren, who accompanied him on the trip, that Chen Youren's resourcefulness and courage have gone from being a Dutch last year to the United States today, and he has won a lot of glory for South China in diplomatic occasions.

Chen Youren nodded, relations with the United States are indeed the top priority of South China diplomacy.

Here, the role played by Ambassador to the United States Mu Xianming, so the eyes of the big guys fell on him.

"Prime Minister, please rest assured, I will not let the villagers be bullied." Mu Xianming assured, his eyes were firm, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his heart.

Mu Xianming's not-so-formal official assurances reassured Situ Meiden, who smiled and nodded in encouragement.

Ambassador to the United States is the post second only to the foreign minister, Mu Xianming has worked in the US branch of the US-China Company, Robles Corporation and other large companies, has extensive contacts on Wall Street, and his appointment as ambassador to the United States is conducive to the economic and trade exchanges between South China and the United States.

At the same time, as a member of the William Consortium, the resources behind him also help him solve the thorny national problem. At the beginning of the year, Situ Nan planned a crackdown on the Ku Klux Klan, which was greatly conducive to improving the living conditions of Chinese immigrants in the United States.

Ma Decai's M Ji fast food chain has opened in New York, and on the streets of Chinatown, Situ Nan smiled when he saw the familiar M Ji recruitment.

"Aren't you thinking about M fast food? That's for you. Situ Nan smiled at He Xiangu beside him, not understanding that this girl actually liked those baked cooked foods as much as children.

"Young master, you're making fun of people again! Away from the U.S. for so long. Can't you miss the M Hamburger? He Xiangu glanced at Situ Nan. Unknowingly, she has been drifting with Situ Nan for almost a year.

Just as they were talking, Ma Decai's round face had already welcomed Situ Meideng and the others in, and when he saw Situ Nan, Ma Decai said, "Young Master Situ, why are you here too?" It's such a pleasure to meet you! He invited Situ Nan in.

"That's a good business!" Situ Nan smiled and looked at the storefront, which was a little familiar with the fast food restaurant in his memory, and it was also a little different. In short, although M Ji has changed people, this business model has gradually emerged.

Stu Meiden and they came here temporarily, and when they came in, there were still many customers in the store, both Chinese and white.

Seeing a group of yellow people being surrounded by people and looking majestic, those white customers were secretly surprised.

"Everyone. Today, in celebration of the visit of the Prime Minister of South China, all food is free of charge. ”

Ma Decai waved his hand and said arrogantly.

Where is Nanhua and who the prime minister of Nanhua is, the vast majority of Americans do not know, and I heard that there is no money for food. Immediately jubilant, applauding, whistling, not at all strict, completely American cowboy characteristics, no understanding of humility at all. But thinking that people can even go in the White House to play, it's normal to see the leader whistling.

Under the enthusiastic explanation of the waiter, they realized that Nanhua was a new Chinese country that defeated the Dutch in distant Asia.

If you can defeat the Dutch, it is estimated that this Nanhua is very powerful. Many people thought to themselves while nibbling on the fragrant hamburger, and when they came out, they looked at those Chinese who had straightened their waists a lot and looked at them with more respect.

"This old horse can do business!" Situ Meiden smiled, and the group entered the restaurant on the second floor.

The shrewd Ma Decai had already temporarily vacated the second floor, and went up to the quiet second floor, and the agents who followed him secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they were most afraid that some ultra-racist would suddenly jump out, let alone hurt the prime minister. It's not good to hurt the flowers and plants.

"Uncle Ma, come and sit. Let's talk about Chinatown here. Situ Nan said with a smile while beckoning Ma Decai to come over.

Speaking of which, he also has a copy of this M Ji fast food company, but he never cares.

"Mr. Ma is a business leader in Chinese America, come and tell me about the situation here. Thinking about how many years it has been since I left the United States, time flies! Situ Meiden sighed.

"Premier Situ, Nanhua has greatly increased the morale of the nation! I've heard about your old man's deeds in the United States for a long time, and now that Chinatown mentions your name, no one doesn't praise him. Ma Decai praised.

The emergence of Nanhua made the Chinese in Chinatown in the United States feel a sense of excitement connected by blood, and the defeat of the Dutch made them feel honored and committed, and more and more people began to realize that their fate had been tied to Nanhua thousands of miles away.

In addition to Ma Decai, Chinese leaders from Chinatown also came, some of them were also Situ Meiden's subordinates, and seeing the "old hall master" was like seeing relatives, so they naturally wanted to express their heartfelt feelings.

There are a few elderly people, estimated to have come to the United States during the gold rush, and after hearing that the prime minister of Nanhua came to visit, he came to toast with a large bowl of wine on crutches, and the scene was touching, and even a black-hearted person like Situ Nan felt a sour nose.

"The Chinese living abroad are so miserable, even if we make a little achievement, they are very excited, and the slightest emotional fluctuation will be magnified countless times."

Mu Xianming sat next to Situ Nan and said. Feeling that his efforts to stay in the United States in the past ten years have not been in vain, he felt proud and secretly warned himself that he had a long way to go and needed to redouble his efforts.

"Do you still keep in touch with Gu Weijun?" Situ Nan asked casually.

"Yes. He is now the foreign minister of the Beijing government, and he has fulfilled his wish. Last year, the Shandong issue was handled beautifully, and Shandong was won back for China. ”

Mu Xianming said excitedly. Gu Weijun is a good friend of his, when Gu Weijun was ambassador to the United States, he also worked as a senior manager at Robles Company.

In recent years, Gu Weijun has been in the limelight in the diplomatic circles, and he is no less talented than Gu Weijun, and he has been running and shuttling for the affairs of Nanhua, and now he has finally become famous.

South China's economy is mainly oriented to the United States, and there are too many investment plans that require a person who understands the economy and has connections, and understands that the US ambassador to the United States is in the middle of coordination, and Mu Xianming as ambassador to the United States is also Situ Nan's strong advocacy.

"By the way, I received a congratulatory telegram from Gu Weijun from Beijing not long ago." Mu Xianming said with a smile.

"What did he say?" Situ Nan said with concern.

"Didn't say much. Mainly talking about strengthening cooperation between the two countries, mutual support and so on. As you know in Beijing, sometimes what he says doesn't necessarily work better than a general. ”

Mu Xianming said.

"That's true. However, the necessary cooperation and exchanges are still needed. Nanhua has a plan to support the motherland, but it has no spare strength for the time being. Therefore, we can only focus on investing in Guangzhou, Guangzhou, but there is really nothing to do with the Beijing government in this regard. Hey, it's really messy, I guess there will be another war in the north. ”

Situ Nan sighed.

"Another war?" Mu Xianming was surprised. Like most people in South China, in the minds of many people, the boundary between South China and China is very blurred, and most people are thinking about the motherland, after all, their home and roots are there.

"Didn't fight in that year of the Republic of China? They fight and we get rich, and when we accumulate strength, we clean up those bastards! Situ Nan said unwillingly.

Not only him, but many people in the South China Army have a similar mentality. If it weren't for He Wenxiu's suppression, it is estimated that those soldiers who were idle and had nothing to do would have returned to their hometown to revolutionize.

However, with the exception of some officers who returned to China, most of the officers and men could only devote their energies to industrial construction and fighting the indigenous resistance.

In the territory of South China, there were no more major wars, and small riots appeared from time to time, mainly because the railways almost affected the interests of many indigenous peoples, but their resistance was doomed to be futile.

With the massive layoffs of the South China Army, hundreds of thousands of soldiers retired from the army and became officials of the local government, and behind them there were tens of millions of compatriots who desperately went abroad from China.

Mu Xianming understands this truth without Situ Nan's explanation, tens of millions of dollars of funds have flowed into Nanhua from New York through his hands, and what earth-shaking changes are taking place in Nanhua, even if others are not in Nanhua, they can feel it.

Naturally, the focus of work shifted to the construction of South China, and the Zhi Gong Party naturally did not have so many resources to devote to the great cause of the reunification of the motherland.

"It seems that the problem of the two Guang still has to rely on their own strength." Mu Xianming said a little unwillingly.

"Huh. If the army were to move north from South China, 100,000 soldiers and horses would be enough to fight from Guangzhou to Beijing, but China's problem is not a military problem at all, but a social change. Chief among them is construction! But construction is the hardest part.

It has been three years since we spent so much energy in Liangguang to digest the two provinces, and this is still the result of our large number of immigrants to South China and effectively alleviating social contradictions. ”

Situ Nan sighed.

I thought to myself: If we go north, even if we conquer most of China, there will not be enough resources to feed hundreds of millions of peasants who are waiting to be fed, and they will not immediately overthrow the cause they have worked so hard to build?

In the face of countless powerful enemies, the people who are in dire straits at home and abroad have no patience to accept the slow results of the South China model??????
