Chapter 587: Brothers United
Evening
Jesus Church in the town of Molghada
Everyone gathered around the table, watched Mr. Wu Mozhou splash ink, and wrote the three big characters of "Humen Pass" in a strong and powerful manner, and applauded loudly.
This character is written in a mellow and atmospheric manner, and the pen is thick, which can be said to bring together Wu Mozhou's calligraphy skills for decades, which is not inferior to the handwriting of famous artists.
Mr. Wu Mozhou put down the brush in his hand, took a step back to appreciate the painting carefully, and nodded with considerable satisfaction; "It's just a clumsy job, which makes you laugh."
"Why should you be too modest, I look at this character written majesticly, the pen is old-fashioned, it is a rare masterpiece, just complementing each other with the majestic majesty, and it will be a celebrity in history!"
"Hey...... It's ugly. ”
Although Mr. Wu Mozhou said this, the smug look on his face could not be concealed, he slowly put down his cuffs and said; "Fortunately, it feels very good today, people and words are one, which is very rare, and it may not have such a good effect if I write another one."
"Lord Boss, there is a reluctant request for a humble position, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"
"Oh......" Wu Mozhou turned his head to look and saw Gu Kaizhi clasping his hands into fists, so he said with a smile; Kaizhi brother, you and I have known each other for many years, and we are fortunate to work together, when we are friends who have forgotten the year, why be so polite, just say it. ”
Gu Kaizhi said;
Kai Zhi has been thinking recently, the name Morghada has a strong Italian color, has always been disliked, and now this place will become the first line of Xiongguan to shield the erosion of the Italians, it is very inappropriate to continue to use this name, I think it can be changed to "Humen Town"?
Thinking back then, what kind of spirit did Lord Lin Zexu have when he banned smoking in Humen?
The name of this hero is used here, and I only hope that the overseas Chinese will not forget the sages, inherit the fierce spirit of Lord Lin Zexu, be self-reliant and self-respecting, and work together to build this place into a beautiful paradise for overseas Chinese. ”
As soon as this statement came out
There was a moment of silence in the room, and then a round of applause......
"Okay, this proposal is really good, it makes people's blood surging when I hear it, the colonization spirit of Chinese immigrants still lacks a sharp spirit that is not afraid of ghosts, Humen Town's idea is very good, I agree to this matter." Wu Mozhou picked up the brush and wrote down the two big characters of "Humen" with a wave.
These two words are different from the previous ones, and if you carefully appreciate the sharpness of the pen, there is a sharp spirit of a sword out of the sheath, which attracted a round of applause.
The Grand Governor of Africa has the right to change the name of a small town, and he only needs to report it afterwards.
Since then, the name Molgada has completely disappeared, replaced by the loud and uplifting name of Humen Town......
Early the next morning
Wu Mozhou and his entourage came to the wharf and prepared to leave Humen Town (Molgada) on the cruiser "Naniwa" to inspect the coastal defense construction and the transportation construction of towns and towns in Somalia Province on the Great Hanish Island Fortress, which was also one of the main tasks of the trip.
On the wharf, a large ocean-going freighter from the Australian mainland is unloading brand-new fishing boats, which are neatly parked by the wharf, most of them are small and medium-sized fishing vessels of more than 100 tons to more than 200 tons, and there are more than 30 of them.
In addition, 12 Mosquito patrol boats were unloaded on the same ship, all of which were "Mosquito" type C patrol boats with a displacement of 260 tons.
This kind of offshore patrol boat belongs to the reduced version, self-sustaining power at sea for three ~ four days, with a fully enclosed cockpit to cope with the wind and waves in the Red Sea, the bow is equipped with a 95mm Miss Australia gun, and each side of the hull is equipped with a Maxine heavy machine gun, carrying 11 people.
Compared with the coastal patrol boats with a larger tonnage, this 280-ton "mosquito" type C patrol boat reduces its tonnage, weakens its firepower allocation, and reduces its self-sustaining power at sea, and of course its price is cheaper.
Compared with the Red Sea, where the wind and waves are small and the area is not large, in line with the principle of enough, this type of reduced patrol boat is a representative work of small body and large ability, with low price and can be widely equipped.
It is also the smallest type of offshore patrol boat in tonnage, with a fully enclosed hull structure.
As for the smaller tonnage of the "mosquito" patrol boat, it belongs to the category of inland rivers, which can only play a role in inland rivers, the side of the ship is even lower, the cockpit is not fully enclosed, and there is no ability to go to sea to resist wind and waves, and a big wave at sea will sink when it comes.
Wu Mozhou stopped at the dock and looked at it with great interest for a while and asked; "Sir Li, I'm afraid this is your handiwork again, right?"
Li Yong hurriedly took a few steps forward and replied respectfully;
"Back to the words of Lord Shoza;
These boats are indeed ordered, but of the 12 patrol boats, 6 are donated to the garrison, hehehe...... My own business left 6 ships to run offshore, and the amount of cargo in nearby Yemen and the Arabian Peninsula is relatively small, and it is not cost-effective to send large ships.
There are also 32 fishing boats that were ordered last year to be used in the newly established Humen Fishery Company, for which a set of equipment for the fishery processing plant was also ordered, ready to be made into canned seafood for sale in Xi'an, and the cargo ships coming and going have a great demand for this kind of shelf-stable food, and the market prospects are quite good. ”
"Well, I won't comment on patrol boats, but the idea of developing fishery production is very good, how did you come up with this idea?" Wu Mozhou asked with great interest.
"When I was an officer of the Guard, I went on several occasions with the Earl to visit Moresby, which is a place where the development of the offshore fishing industry is quite good, and the deep processing of seafood provides thousands of jobs...... Very impressive under it. ”
"Very good...... This project is really good, the Red Sea is extremely rich in fishery resources, the big fish in the sea are often hundreds of catties, the opening of fishing companies and processing plants, not only to solve the demand for seafood, but also to increase employment opportunities, this is a good thing, I hope you do not disappoint the high expectations of the earl, make some achievements. ”
"Thank you for your reputation, I will definitely take this as a lesson and keep it in mind." Li Yong said solemnly.
Wu Mozhou nodded approvingly, didn't say anything more, and led a group of officials to board the "Naniwa" cruiser and waved goodbye to the crowd who saw them off.
The mighty warship slowly left the dock and sailed all the way into the distance......
Dockside
Li Yong watched the battleship disappear into the sea in the distance, falling into a long contemplation, the cool breeze on the seashore fluttered his clothes, and his figure looked very solemn.
The people standing behind looked at each other, and no one dared to step forward to disturb Lord Li's thinking.
A moment later
Da Lao Hei couldn't help but glance at Mo Zhenxiong and whispered; "The lord is stunned, why are you standing here for a long time, what's so beautiful about this broken sea?"
"Shut up, impatient to wait for yourself to go back alone."
"Don't mind, Master Mo, can't I be wrong?"
"Then keep your mouth shut."
"Oh!"
Since the victory over the Italian army, Li Yong's personal prestige has reached an incomparable peak, and he was awarded the title of "Honorary Knight", which has invisibly been plated with a layer of aristocratic gold.
In Somalia, more than 600,000 square kilometers of land, that's really scorpion...... It's a one-of-a-kind! The appeal is leveraged.
Perhaps hearing the discussion of the people behind him, Li Yong turned his head and glanced at it majestically, and commanded with a faint expression; "Don't follow here, go back, Jinxiong will stay and talk to me."
"Do as the lord commands." Everyone responded in unison, and then quickly dispersed.
Mo Zhenxiong walked to Li Yong's side without saying a word, looked at the endless sea in the distance, and asked after taking a deep breath of the salty sea breeze; "Brother Yong, what are you thinking?"
"Jinxiong, I'm thinking...... We have made so much money and have eaten and drunk for several lifetimes, should we use it in more meaningful places? ”
"Uh...... What do you mean......"
"Humen Town, Gu Kaizhi's words deeply shocked me, this is a heroic place that will leave a strong mark in the history of China, I want to contribute to the construction of this town, if it can be built into a big city like Xi'an, we will be deeply proud of it."
"Brother Yong, I understand what you mean, but didn't we donate more than 1,000 pounds?"
"Hehehe...... This is far from enough, I want to use all my net worth to set up a company, build roads, build factories, build medical education, and attract more Chinese immigrants to live and work here to participate in the grand event. ”
"Oh my God...... You wouldn't, would you? This is also an exaggeration. Mo Zhenxiong's eyes widened in surprise.
He knows that fixed assets are not counted, Li Yong has earned a huge net worth of hundreds of thousands of pounds over the years, so much money is enough to build ten small towns, what is the concept of investing all in Humen Town?
Mo Zhenxiong's reaction was not what Li Yong expected, he smiled indifferently and did not answer.
How much can a person spend on luxury?
The most glamorous Arab woman survived for 200 pounds, and two or three thousand pounds to build an extremely luxurious manor house is enough, Li Yong's net worth has now transcended the material enjoyment stage of ordinary people, and he has begun to pursue a higher level of social status and upper affirmation, and seek benefits for future generations.
The head of the seat faintly mentioned the point outside the words, how could he not know?
Thinking about the increasing power of the master of the Red Keep, it is a matter of course that one day ascending to the throne is a matter of course, and it is also a matter of expectation, and anyone with a little brain can see this, which is not unusual.
If you make dazzling achievements on the occasion of this Ding Revolution, I am afraid that it will not be a mere "honorary knight" who can send it, and maybe it will also earn a noble title for future generations, and it will be passed down for generations.
If people don't have ideals, what is the difference between them and salted fish?
"Zhenxiong, I have decided that I will set up a Humen development company, devote myself to the construction, and build this place into a beautiful coastal city, I will build a lighthouse here, expand the port wharf, build a large storage area, and make every effort to develop the marine fishing industry and seafood processing industry, and form an industry based on ocean transit trade, shipping and marine fishing, so as to attract more Chinese immigrants to settle down."
Speaking of which
Li Yong turned his head to look at Mo Zhenxiong, and said earnestly and really; "Zhenxiong, you are an officer of the pro-guard team, knowledgeable, capable, and ambitious, I hope you can work with me, if you can make some achievements, presumably the master of the Red Fort will not be stingy with the title of a wife and a cute son."
"Brother Yong, I listen to you." Mo Zhenxiong was really shocked, and after only a little thought, he agreed, such a temptation is irresistible to a normal person.
"Hahaha...... Good brothers work together, and there is nothing that cannot be done. Li Yong laughed, and his two big strong hands were clasped tightly together.
