Chapter 195: Colleagues Gathering

General Moraes stood up, went to the bookshelf behind his desk and pulled out a document, looked at it carefully, and said:

"Colonel Fang, a week ago I received information that a very good deposit of bauxite was discovered in Orichmina, Pará State.

Because it is located deep in the Amazon River, it is difficult to develop.

Therefore, the Ministry of Energy and Mining is now hesitant to find a suitable capital cooperation to mine the bauxite here.

I know that aircraft manufacturing requires a lot of aluminum.

Tomorrow I will go and discuss with Mr. President, that your family and the Ministry of Energy and Mines will jointly mine the bauxite here, so that you can ensure that the cost of your aluminum is the lowest.

It's my support for Brazil's aviation industry."

Fang Lang didn't expect General Moraes to bring him such a big surprise, Fang Lang was originally coveting Brazil's domestic mineral resources.

However, during the reign of Vargas, the state's control over mineral resources was very strict, and Fang Lang's acquisition of Vale's shares was also obtained through shares in artillery factories.

The future development prospects of aluminum ore are very broad.

If General Moraes can really give the Fang family the opportunity to participate in the mining of aluminum ore, the Fang family will truly become the person with a mine in the family.

"Is that really okay? It won't make you too embarrassed, will it?"

Fang Lang's mouth was about to grin to the back molars.

Of course, Fang Lang is not the master who only makes cheap and does not suffer losses, and has already made a decision in his heart, if this aluminum mine can really let his family become a shareholder, no matter how many shares can be purchased, he will leave one-tenth of General Moraes' dry shares.

"Don't worry! I'll personally go to Mr. President to talk about this, but be prepared that this mine is located deep in the Amazon and may require a lot of money upfront.

This is also to be able to provide you with aluminium ore and develop our mineral resources."

General Moraes was obviously thinking too simply, and it was not easy to turn bauxite into ingots, which required a lot of electricity.

Brazil is not a particularly electrically developed country in its time.

If you really want to set up a factory to smelt aluminum, Fang Lang's investment will be very huge, and even need to invest in a power station.

Otherwise, with the current domestic power generation in Brazil, no matter where the city builds an electrolytic aluminum plant, it will cause the city to cut off power.

When the time comes, it will be strange not to be blocked by the people to complain.

However, now that General Moraes is providing such an opportunity, it must not be given up.

In Fang Lang's impression, Brazil's bauxite reserves are 8.67% of the world's bauxite reserves, ranking fifth in the world. The reserves are nearly three times that of my hometown.

Ninety percent of Brazil's bauxite is in the Amazon.

Although Fang Lang does not know how much of this bauxite ore has now, he believes that it will not be a small mine.

"Thank you so much, Your Excellency General, I will tell my father the good news, so that my father can prepare the funds and wait for the notice from the Ministry of Energy and Mines at any time.

As for the aircraft factory, please rest assured, I will go to Germany again in two days to see if I can bring back a few designers from Germany who have experience in aircraft design to Brazil to design our own aircraft for us."

"Okay, that's what you said, I'll just wait and see if I will ever see our Brazilian-made planes take to the skies in my lifetime."

Listening to General Moraes' wishes, Fang Lang suddenly felt a lot of pressure, aircraft manufacturing is a systematic project, and it cannot be realized immediately in two words.

However, the propeller aircraft should not be difficult to achieve, and it is a big deal that some parts that cannot be manufactured in Brazil will be purchased globally!

Fang Lang can't be blamed here, and General Moraes will be happy not to say anything about the excellent aircraft designers he found in Germany.

Now the most I can say is that I know about these designers

Someone else who doesn't come to Brazil for a day can't be considered a success.

If you say it early, then people won't want to come to Brazil, and you will be embarrassed.

It will also leave an unstable impression on the leader, Fang Lang will not make such a low-level mistake.

The meeting between the two can be said to be very fruitful, and General Moraes was even more overjoyed because he saw the hope of localizing armaments.

When Fang Lang left General Moraes's office, it was almost time to get off work, and Fang Lang wanted to invite General Moraes to dinner.

However, today is the inauguration ceremony of the new president, and tonight the heads of government and the personnel of various parties, as well as the financiers behind the scenes, will attend the appreciation dinner of Mr. President, so there is definitely no time to eat with Fang Lang, so I can only find a chance next time.

By the time Fang Lang left the Ministry of Defense and returned to the hotel, Colonel Titch was already waiting at the hotel.

"Fang, hurry up and pack up and change into casual clothes, I'm going to take you to a great place today."

As soon as Colonel Tiqi saw Fang Lang, he urged urgently.

"Isn't it? Every time you go to Rio, you say you want to take me to experience the passion of a Brazilian girl, but it never happens, is it true that your conscience has found it today?"

Fang Lang glanced at Colonel Tiqi and said with a smile.

"Haha. Fang, don't look at me as the head snake in Rio, in fact, I don't play as much as Berry's guy.

I didn't even know there was such a place in Rio, but after listening to Berry's description today, I can't wait."

"Oh! Tell me what excites you so much!"

"Hey, hey. Hurry up, you'll know when you go. I also heard him say, I haven't seen it specifically, you hurry up."

Under the constant urging of Colonel Titch, Fang Lang changed into a delicate custom suit and was dragged into the car that had been waiting at the door for a long time.

The guards were also jumping for a while, and finally changed into civilian clothes to protect their safety from afar.

The car went all the way around and finally came to a very large seaside manor, where the security is very tight, standing outside the manor to see the specific situation inside, the view is blocked by walls and shrubs.

After the inspection, the vehicle drove into the manor, and the view suddenly cleared.

The European-style building faces a private bay dotted with tall coconut palms, and in the dim darkness of the night, bonfires are lit on the beach by the sea.

A group of girls in sexy swimsuits are drinking and chatting with a few people around a campfire.

Fang Lang recognized at a glance that several people were the same as several naval officers he knew in the Ministry of Defense today.

Glancing at the direction of the European-style villa, although the lights were bright, there were obviously no other guests, Fang Lang glanced at Colonel Tiqi beside him strangely and said:

"Whose villa is this?"

To be honest, Fang Lang didn't expect Rio de Janeiro to have such a luxurious villa.

This made him want to buy the same villa as his home in Rio de Janeiro, after all, it was really inconvenient to stay in a hotel every time he was in Rio.

"Haha. Fang, this is not our villa, and we can't afford such a high-end villa. Berry said that this is one of the most exclusive private clubs in Rio.

Only one group of guests is accepted each day, and only member reservations are accepted, so I don't know exactly how Berry managed to get here.

I've heard of this place, but I've never been to it again."

Colonel Titch looked at the crowd on the beach, his eyes glowing green.

"I haven't been here, how do you know you're here, I haven't seen you take a detour!"

Fang Lang obviously didn't believe that he hadn't come.

"You can't slander me, I'm from Rio, and if you tell me an address, there's no place I can't find it."

Hearing that Fang Lang was suspicious of him, Colonel Titch swore by him.

But Fang Lang didn't bother to dwell on such a boring thing!

The three people on the beach had already noticed the arrival of the two and greeted them one after another.

It was the three commanders of the Brazilian naval base who were met in the morning at the Ministry of Defense.

With the addition of Fang Lang and Colonel Tichy, the commanders of the entire Brazilian Navy's current five major theaters or five naval bases have arrived.

It also meant that, except for the captains of two battleships and one cruiser, the powerful officers of the Brazilian Navy were present.

Of course, the river fleet is not included.

However, it can also be seen from here that the current Brazilian naval strength is really very weak, and the entire Brazilian coastline is 7,400 kilometers long.

Before Fang Lang appeared, there were only four theaters of war, and only two destroyers in each theater could sail to the open sea.

It is no wonder that during World War II, the Americans looked down on the Brazilian Navy and only arranged the task of laying mines.

"Haha. Fang, we've been here for a long time, so we're waiting for you, come over quickly, and I'll introduce you to the beautiful women."

Colonel Berry took the initiative to greet the two of them.

While talking, he also motioned to several sexy girls who were with the three of them to come forward and greet Fang Lang and the two.

Fang Lang noticed Colonel Titch, his left and right arms were pulled by two hot girls, his face began to flush faintly, and he didn't know where to put his hands.

The eyes unconsciously aimed at the girl's towering, and the waves below believed that this old boy was coming for the first time.

While Fang Lang was observing Colonel Titch, everyone was also observing Fang Lang's reaction.

As a result, Fang Lang was not shy and took the initiative to take the thin waist of the two girls who came up and said:

"I said brother, I didn't have dinner, your show is very good, but it can't make me hungry!"

Although the one-piece swimsuits worn by these girls are very sexy, they are too pediatric for Fang Lang, who has experienced the baptism of the Internet in later generations.

Bikinis don't have a single bad review.

The key is that as a seafarer, Fang Lang often travels on the seashores of various countries and has experienced celestial baths, how can this kind of small scene get into the eyes of Fang Daguan.

However, when his hand swiped over the smooth skin of the girls, Fang Lang was still slightly surprised, and after carefully looking at the two girls beside him, he was relieved, fortunately, they were adults.

After all, in Fang Lang's impression, Western girls generally have more body hair, and the skin of slightly mature girls will not be smooth enough.

Several people also laughed when they saw Fang Lang so relaxed, and Berry smiled:

"We didn't wait for you to come and order, we have already arranged for them to prepare the best Brazilian barbecue, which will be served soon.

There's a unique seafood here, so if you like it, ask them to come up and try it."

In fact, Brazilian barbecue is really a good thing, and it is very much in line with Fang Lang's appetite for this carnivore.

However, the Brazilians' craftsmanship in making seafood is really flattering to Fang Lang.

But since it was recommended, of course Fang Lang didn't mind trying it.

"Then let them hurry, I'm really hungry."

After speaking, he looked at the two girls with healthy wheat skin next to him and said:

"I'm going to be very tired tonight, so I can't eat enough."

After everyone heard Fang Lang's frank words, they all laughed, and even the girl next to them laughed coquettishly, and shook Fang Lang's arm unrelentingly.

Feeling the softness coming from Dao's arm, Fang Lang also laughed.
