Driven by profits, more and more Chinese tin miners applied to join the Chinese Tin Association, and they took out loans from the U.S.-China Bank to purchase machinery to expand the scale of production, and then sold the tin sand to the Lee's Tin Company to repay the loan

Even Hu Guolian, the king of tin mines, is no exception, he knows the power of British tin business machines to mine tin ore, if he does not update his equipment in time, let alone compete with British tin merchants, he may also be driven out by other Chinese tin miners in the guild.

Hu Guolian scolded with a smile: "Li's tin company almost pocketed the tin merchants attending the meeting, and the heroes all fell into Li's hands. ā€

These tin miners are all representatives of the tin mining industry in Malayahua, and under their white spoon demonstration, the remaining small and medium-sized tin miners have to join them. Later, the membership of the Chinese Tin Merchants Association reached 150.

Due to the good tin market in the international market, under the leadership of the Chinese Tin Association, the Chinese tin merchants received the capital and technology provided by the United States and China, and gradually became a deposit that could compete with the British merchants. This is a matter of mutual benefit, and the Meihua company will also benefit greatly from organizing China to enter the tin merchant industry.

Due to the business dealings with a large number of Chinese tin merchants, the American Chinese Bank has opened branches all over the major cities where the Nanyang tin industry is developed, and has become the internal bank of the Nanyang Chinese Tin Association, and tens of millions of funds engaged in tin investment are turned over in the American Chinese Bank every year.

While the Bank of America and China has the funds of these Chinese businessmen, it also has information about the Chinese businessmen. Through these Chinese businessmen who walked in Nanyang, the Zhi Gong Party was quietly building an intelligence network all over Nanyang.

Under the manipulation of giants such as the Li Tin Company, a large number of weak and small Huajin small tin mines have closed down and been swallowed up by other large tin miners, and some of the bankrupt tin workers have to go into the mineral or tin processing factories of the Li Tin Company, or into the farms of the Meihua Company to make a living. As a result, many of them took the road of revolution.

It's completely a big fish eating small fish and a small fish eating dried shrimp, and Situ Nan, the mastermind behind the bankruptcy of tens of millions of Chinese tin merchants, is not ashamed at all.

Even if the many handicraft tin industries among the Chinese businessmen did not have the impetus of Situ Nan, they would have lost and closed down in the capital competition with Britain and the Netherlands.

Without the protection of the policy, if Chinese tin merchants want to occupy the tin market in Nanyang, in addition to paying more, they must also be ruthless enough. Survival of the fittest, only the large-scale Chinese tin miners with monopoly can survive and develop under the competition of tin miners in the UK and the Netherlands.

Although Situ Nan withdraws a large amount of funds from the United States every year to invest in the United States and Chinese companies, these funds are not only used for the development of immigrants, material reserves, and personnel training in Nanyang, but also for the development of Nanyang's rich resources, and it is impossible to pay for those Chinese capital that have failed in market competition. If some tin miners can't support the wall, then Meihua can only find someone who can support the wall to replace them. Only by making more money can Meihua have more spare power to support Nanyang's independent business.

Meddling in the tin industry is the first step in the development of Situ Nanyang, and after the initial completion of the tin industry layout, Situ Nan looked at the rubber industry.

The chamber of commerce in Bencheng benefited Situ Nan a lot, and he met a group of wealthy businessmen in Nanyang, which allowed him to find a direct way to enter the Nanyang rubber industry, that is, a joint venture, and find a joint venture between Chinese businessmen in Nanyang. So Situ Nan asked Chen Kah Kee to the William.

Chen Jiageng, who was dressed simply, walked into the William, and secretly felt the luxury of the ship, and the ancient emperors were nothing more than that. The ship was almost half his worth.

"Hello, Uncle Chen, and welcome to the William." Situ Nan greeted Chen Kah Kee warmly, and when he saw a young man in his twenties who came with Chen Kah Kee, he casually asked, "Who is this?" ā€

"Hello, Mr. Szeto. My name is Lee Kong Chian and I am Mr. Chen's assistant. Lee Kong Chian said generously.

"Lee Kong Chien?" Situ Nan looked at Li Guangqian with great interest, wearing glasses, Si Swenwen, a pair of clear and restrained eyes, and it was naturally shrewd to be Chen Jiageng's assistant.

"Oh, you're Uncle Chen's son-in-law? I remember, Brother Li. Situ Nan said with a smile.

"Huh?" Situ Nan's words made Li Guangqian dumbfounded, Li Guangqian's face turned red in an instant, and he quickly explained: "Mr. Situ, you are mistaken. I'm not Mr. Li's son-in-law, and I'm not married. ā€

"Huh? Am I wrong? Situ Nan was stunned for a moment, and thought: Didn't Li Guangqian marry Chen Jiageng's eldest daughter, and later started his own business, invested in the rubber industry to make a fortune, and finally became another rubber king in Nanyang? Well, maybe the time hasn't come yet!

Situ Nan realized that his ideas were a little "ahead of his time". However, being able to bring Li Guang to the William shows that Chen Jiageng values Li Guangqian, otherwise he would not be recruited as a fast son-in-law in the future.

Fortunately, Tan Kah Kee and Lee Kong Chian were not angry at Situ Nan's nonsense. Situ Nan smiled and said: "A talent like Brother Li is a promising future at a glance, and I want to recruit you as a son-in-law if I have a daughter." Uncle Chen, do you say yes? ā€

Chen Jiageng's face was stunned, stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, why did this Situ Nan mention this matter again? Feelings are more anxious than me? However, the child was not young before, and the eldest daughter of the family seemed to have reached the age?????

Chen Jiageng thought for a moment and nodded Jingran.

Don't seem to be much against it?

Li Guangqian's face turned even redder, and at this moment, the beautiful figure of the eldest daughter of the Chen family appeared in his mind, and his heart was hot, and he was even more excited, but he didn't dare to turn his head to look at Chen Jiageng next to him.

Wouldn't the boss really want to marry his daughter to me? Suddenly, the thought crossed his mind.

Li Guangqian's expression fell into Situ Nan's eyes, he was secretly amused, it seemed that Li Guangqian, who was in his twenties, was also anxious.

Although Chen Jiageng and Lee Kong Chian have not yet married Weng Zi-in-law, it does not prevent Situ Nan from having a good impression of this Weng son-in-law, knowing that this Weng and son-in-law are very similar to each other, with the same business talent, the same integrity, the same strong patriotic heart, enthusiastic charity, countless donations to schools, and leaving a good story in history. Situ Nan invested in the rubber industry and immediately thought of this pair of sons-in-law.

After a little joke, the two sides got into the subject. Since Situ Nan could not stay in Nanyang for a long time, and more of the people who would deal with Chen Jiageng in the future would be Meihua Company, so Situ Nan specially recruited Yao Hongmin.

Yao Hongmin was the first to speak: "Mr. Chen, there is no doubt about the credibility and strength of our Meihua Company, and the reputation of Qianyi Company and Mr. Chen is also well-known in Nanyang, so we will talk openly if we have something to say." ā€

"As it should be. We at Qianyi also value this cooperation very much. Manager Yao has any good construction yƬ just said. Chen Jiageng nodded and said.

"To be honest, our Meihua company has also invested a lot in the rubber industry. Many rubber plantations have been opened in the Philippines, Medan and other places. These are new seedlings that have been planted for less than two years, but we are bullish on rubber, so we will open more rubber plantations in the future, with an initial investment of $3 million. Yao Hongmin smiled, paused slightly, and observed Chen Jiageng's expression.

$3 million? That's almost 7 million silver dollars! If you want to expand your rubber plantation, you have to sell tin mines and fruit canneries to raise funds, and you are almost smashing the pot and selling iron, but the Meihua Company is going to spend 7 million silver dollars without blinking, which is really incomparable!

Chen Jiageng sighed in his heart. He knew that he had just invested tens of millions of silver dollars in the tin industry, and now he had taken out such a large sum of money to invest in the rubber industry, which was really wealthy. Is it any wonder that you can drive such a luxurious and luxurious cruise ship?

Chen Jiageng looked at Situ Nan, who was silent on the side, and couldn't understand the other party's thoughts in his heart. Since the other party is so rich, why not find yourself?

"Mr. Chen, you must also know about Lee's Tin Company? In fact, our Meihua company also wants to carry out cooperation similar to that of Li's tin company with Qianyi company. If we cooperate with each other, the management of the company will be handed over to Mr. Chen, and Meihua will not interfere, but Meihua will play some guiding role in financial supervision and rubber sales. Yao Hongmin said.

So good? The other party invests in its own company, but as a major shareholder, Meihua Company asks the company to manage itself, although there is an example of Li's Tin Company, but Yao Hongmin's construction is really a bit subverted Chen Jiageng's imagination, how can there be a special money to do business?

"I am a little flattered by Manager Yao's kindness, and I take the liberty to ask, why did you choose our Qianyi Company?" Tan Kah Kee asked. He knew that with the conditions of the Meihua Company, he could definitely find a large number of collaborators.

That's a good question! Before that, Mr. Li would like to answer me a question? Situ Nan interjected, "Mr. Chen, as far as I know, you live a simple life and often eat with sauerkraut, but you donate so much money to build Jimei School, why is this?" I know that other Chinese businessmen are also enthusiastic about education, but they can't do what you do. ā€

Chen Jiageng didn't expect the other party to know him so well, and even knew that he donated to build Jimei School. Although it was a little abrupt, Chen Jiageng still chose to answer.

"It has always been my wish to benefit Sangzi and return to my hometown. In fact, I don't need brocade clothes and meat, instead of spending money on personal enjoyment, it is better to take it out and do something good. A few dollars that seem inconspicuous to us, but enough for a child in my hometown to study for a year, isn't this enough to change a child's life? ā€

Chen Jiageng said with emotion.

These words made Situ Nan embarrassed, although he William Foundation spent much more money than Chen Jiageng, but Situ Nan couldn't be as pure and thorough as Chen Jiageng, and his ideological consciousness was not so high, so he wanted to take out all his net worth to do good deeds, unless he was about to die.

Of course, the greedy Situ Nan didn't plan to change anything in this regard. He seemed to have expected Chen Jiageng to say this, nodded and praised: "Uncle Chen's deficit heart is touched. When we choose to cooperate, the first thing is to pay attention to the integrity of each other's products. Meihua has many partners to work with, but only those like Uncle Chen are Meihua's intimate friends. Uncle Chen's father and son inherited the reputation of their father's debt, who doesn't know Nanyang? Leaving the company to you to take care of, what are we worried about? ā€

"Oh? You know that, too? Chen Jiageng asked with a smile.
