Hot, this is the only place where Jiang Weiji is dissatisfied with Nanhua.

"What the hell!"

A car came on, and the license plate should be from the government department. Jiang Weiji took a look at it curiously, and suddenly the window was lowered, revealing a young face, a young man in a suit.

Well, on a hot day, this guy is still wearing a tie and is meticulous, he should be one of those young people who came back from abroad. Jiang Weiji thought to himself and continued to walk forward.

The young man looked at Jiang Weiji, and his expression suddenly became excited: "Uncle Jiang, are you Uncle Jiang?" ”

"You are?" Jiang Weiji stopped, looked at the other party vigilantly, and reached to his waist. If it was those short, dark-skinned Javanese, he would have to be careful.

Seeing that the other party was Chinese, he secretly relaxed, and felt that the other party was a little familiar, with a thin face and bright eyes.

"I'm Lifu, Chen Lifu!" Chen Lifu got out of the car excitedly, and the authentic Ningbo dialect reached Jiang Weiji's ears, and then he remembered that he didn't expect that the polite young man in front of him was actually Chen Lifu, and he didn't expect to meet Chen Guofu's younger brother Chen Lifu in Nanhua.

Chen Guofu is his horse, almost obedient, and the two are familiar with each other, which is mainly related to Chen Guofu's early appearance in society.

However, Chen Lifu has been studying, now studying mining at Peiyang University, and later went to the United States to study, relatively speaking, the relationship with Jiang Weiji is a little more alienated.

This time, Jiang Weiji was promoted, he was trying to promote Chen Guofu well, and estimated the day, and Chen Guofu's ship would arrive in New Tangshan in two or three days.

"Yo! Uncle Jiang. You're in the army now, lieutenant colonel, and if you work hard, you can probably become a general. Chen Lifu said, looking at a military uniform, he didn't expect to meet this Uncle Jiang, who he hadn't seen for many years, followed by a young adjutant, this uncle is not simple.

"It's a long story, find a place, and our uncle and nephew can talk about it!" Jiang Weiji excitedly patted Chen Lifu on the shoulder. When I met my old acquaintance in a foreign country, I was also very happy...... On the 1st of the month, the Taiping Ferry arrived in Singapore, and the port was jubilant. This choke point city in the Straits of Malacca was originally a free trade port, home to more than 100,000 Chinese, accounting for more than half of the population, and is still growing rapidly, and many of the passengers on the Taiping Ferry have come to Singapore.

The port of Singapore, at the throat, is not only anchored by hundreds of merchant ships from all over the world. It also includes the British ** ship not far away. The influence of the British Empire in the Far East was gradually waning, and their warships were withdrawn from Weihai, Shandong, China, and now they had withdrawn their main forces to Singapore, while the fleet in Hong Kong was only used for show, and was actually too small to resist the combined Japanese fleet.

these years. The Royal Navy spared no effort to build tall and sturdy forts in dangerous places, and huge artillery groups made it difficult for enemies from the sea to retreat.

The British are getting less and less courageous, and in the past they put their fleet in this way, and there was no need to build fortifications at all.

Zhou Tiancheng looked at the narrow Strait of Malacca and thought to himself.

But. Singapore's development speed is indeed very fast, especially oil, tin ore, rubber trade potential is very large, the turnover is second only to the current booming New Tangshan, even the financially tight Meihua company has also invested a lot in Singapore, the task of the United States and China is to organize Singapore's Chinese-funded enterprises from the manufacturing industry development.

"The ship had to anchor in Singapore for a day to replenish water and food. I will only go to New Tangshan the day after tomorrow, do you want to go down for a walk? ”

Zhou Tiancheng took his mother and cousin off the boat, and invited Chen Guofu and them to get off the boat to play. Chen Guofu happily agreed, eager to see the customs on the shore. The weather was too hot, and Liu Hongsheng preferred to stay on the Taiping Wheel.

In the evening, there was a grand banquet on the ship, Chen Guofu came back with a red face, Liu Hongsheng asked with a smile: "How is Singapore?" ”

"Hot! The afternoon was like roasting a pig. I finally know why Mr. Hu's panacea is so good to sell! ”

Chen Guofu fanned the wind with his hands in just one afternoon. On the street, someone was found to be suffering from heat stroke, and then passers-by applied a large amount of panacea to the patient's face, and finally saw the scorching atmosphere of Nanyang.

In fact, the night is the most comfortable time! If you disembark now, you'll definitely see the beautiful night view of Singapore, but it's also a good idea to stay on board and enjoy the "fresh breeze and the water".

Liu Hongsheng's words made Chen Guofu a little annoyed, this guy deliberately didn't tell himself in the morning, and when he returned to the boat, he felt cool, and when he saw Liu Hongsheng wearing shorts and holding a glass of fresh coconut water, he suddenly found that unconsciously, the pants of the guests on the ship suddenly became shorter, and the woman's clothes became thinner all of a sudden, and even a little transparent.

"Hu's Yong'an Tang is the fastest-growing pharmaceutical company in Nanyang, and its market size is second only to Meihua Pharmaceutical, but don't think that he is just a jack-of-all-trades!"

Liu Hongsheng took a sip of coconut water, added ice cubes to it, felt cold, and couldn't help but talk about the anecdote of Nanhua again.

"Huh! Nanyang is not good at this, it is very hot, and the lowest latitude in the world is better than Shanghai and Guangzhou! ”

"So you're going to have to get used to it here." Liu Hongsheng nodded to Chen Guofu, it is not easy for Nanhua to come out now.

Chen Guofu nodded, understanding Liu Hongsheng's words, and once pretended to inquire about Zhou Tiancheng easily.

"That Mr. Zhou is a busy man, and where he is, things are always small. But he shouldn't have time to take care of Zhejiang Bank, and I'm the same, so it's up to you son-in-law. ”

Liu Hongsheng patted Chen Guofu on the shoulder and said meaningfully.

For Zhou Tiancheng, Liu Hongsheng and others, this investment is not big, and their connections in Nanhua are enough to ensure that Zhu Wulou will not dare to fool them, otherwise-

The trajectory of his life has turned around, and Chen Guofu, who is almost going to be a spy under Jiang Weiji, will still be a businessman after all, if he knows that there is a similar person in the parallel space who has been prominent for half his life, and finally because of his incorruptibility, he even looks down on his illness, I really don't know what to feel in his heart.

When the Taiping Ferry arrived in New Tangshan, it was very coincidental that it rained heavily, pouring the scorching earth through.

"This is Nanhua?" Chen Guofu looked at Tangshan Port, which was silent in the rain. The scale is even bigger in the port of Shanghai, which he is familiar with, and the heavy rain has not extinguished the busy wharf at all, the dock machines are flying around, the huge crane arms are constantly working between the sea and land, and the dock workers in blue uniforms are busy like diligent little bees.

"That's right. This is Nanhua, do you see the cape in front of you? It is a lighthouse under construction and will become a landmark building of New Tangshan in the future. ”

Liu Hongsheng pointed to a cliff road at the mouth of the sea, with a proud face.

When Chen Guofu saw it, a section of the building was erected in the air, and the high foundation was erected. Above is a ten-storey building, although it has not yet been built, but it undoubtedly shows people the financial strength of Nanhua.

"That's the coal port next to it, right? Yo, there's a railroad! ”

Chen Guofu pointed to the wharf on the other side of the port and exclaimed, just now he saw a train roaring into the wharf, next to the wharf there were two black freighters, full of coal, which had been transported from elsewhere and were piled up like a dark hill in the port area.

Chen Guofu saw it from a distance, and secretly compared the coal ship in the distance in his heart, which was basically the same as the Taiping ship under his feet, that is to say, those two ships carried 560,000 tons of coal.

Obviously, this coal was transported by rail to the industrial area, so how large is the industrial area to consume this coal?

Watch as the coals are unloaded by workers in the rain on the ship. The pile was getting higher and higher in the port area, and Chen Guofu couldn't help but ask Liu Hongsheng next to him.

"You're asking the right question." Liu Hongsheng smiled slightly and told Chen Guofu that the coal was transported from Sumatra and Borneo, and that the coal in West Java basically came in from Tangshan Port. It is then transported by guò rail to the regions.

Last year, Tangshan Port handled more than 5 million tons of coal, and this figure was refreshed in the first half of this year. Iron and steel industrial zones and power plants are the main consumers of coal, followed by high-quality anthracite for ship power.

"The Port of Tangshan has now surpassed Singapore to become the largest coal port in the South Seas, and more and more ocean-going vessels are anchored here to replenish coal."

Following the direction of Liu Hongsheng's finger, Chen Guofu looked at the ships with the flags of various countries moored on the dock, and responded to the poem "The door is berthed in the Dongwu Wanli ship".

Haven't landed yet. It seems that he also felt the thriving atmosphere of Nanhua from Liu Hongsheng's pride.

"Pingxiang Coal Company has already done business in Nanhua?" Chen Guofu asked casually.

"Not really. Personally, I run a coal business here, and this time, I would like to take a look at the thermal power plant project in Nanhua. If things go well, Pingxiang Coal Company will build some new power projects in China. ”

Liu Hongsheng explained that the matter is important, and this time he did not reveal more information.

At this time, a freighter happened to come in and stopped next to the coal wharf, Liu Hongsheng smiled slightly. Pointing to the British and Australian flags on the ship, he said with some envy: "That's the iron ore shipped from Australia, and most of the iron ore in Nanhua is transported from the west coast of Australia?????? Luckily, we owned the iron ore in the first place! ”

Iron ore? Australia? What does he have to do with Nanhua?

Chen Guofu was secretly surprised, feeling that Zhou Tiancheng, Liu Hongsheng and others made him a little unable to see through, anyway, they were high-level big people who were higher than him.

Even this Nanhua, from the first sight of Tangshan Port, Chen Guofu felt that there were too many secrets hidden in it, and a voice in his heart called to him, only by creating a career and standing taller would he see farther, and the original secrets would be revealed.

The arrival of the Taiping Ferry made Tangshan Port jubilant, and countless flags greeted the ship, and the people on board also responded. Whether it is the dignitaries in the first class or the destitute people in the third class, they remember this extraordinary trip deeply.

"If you have time tomorrow, I will introduce you to a big man, the kind who can reach the sky, and he is also our fellow countryman."

Liu Hongsheng waved his hand, got into a brand-new car and left.

Chen Guofu and his wife Zhu Ming cautiously walked out of the dock, in front of them was an open square, the traffic was busy, the cars were speeding on the road, it had just rained, the glass of each car was smooth and shiny, and there was an endless stream of back and forth.

But the most are bicycles, and the sound of bells rings in the streets non-stop, and ?????? Those abominable rickshaws, they are the most hated people for tricycle drivers! (To be continued.)
