William Hope, with the help of Sheriff George Maher, terminated his contract with his original employer before coming to Zhao Chuanxin.

At this time, Miao Cuihua was shaving Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin likes sunshine, so he doesn't like to stay in the house.

Miao Cuihua sat on the stool, leaned over him with an old-fashioned razor, and shaved his face carefully and carefully.

After several days, Zhao Chuanxin rarely rested for a while and enjoyed the leisurely daylight.

Haircutting and shaving are the most smoky activities, and in a moment Zhao Chuanxin's consciousness began to blur, and he was only one foot away from falling asleep.

Just when the sober line of defense was in jeopardy, the voice of the damned Freddie Pavit rang out: "Sir, the cowboy named William Hope that day is here." ”

Miao Cuihua glared at Freddy Pavit dissatisfied.

In the past few days, Zhao Chuanxin has forgotten to sleep and eat, and her beard is unkempt, and she is distressed.

After a break, Freddie Pavit interrupted.

Zhao Chuanxin opened his eyes: "Bring him over." ”

William Hope was looking at the size and luxury of the estate in amazement.

He had no idea that the irascible man who would not tell him his identity would sit on such a magnificent estate.

So, become more cautious.

This is the humility that a person at the bottom should have in the face of capitalists.

He took off his hat and bent over: "Hello, sir." ”

Try to make yourself look less vulgar.

But the smell of cow dung and sweat on his body can't be concealed.

Zhao Chuanxin took the wet towel handed by Miao Cuihua and wiped the remaining foam on his face.

He got straight to the point: "Williams, let me ask you, do you know this place in Kurdeks?" ”

William Hope nodded: "Yes, it's in Westchestershire, not far from North Tarrytown, on the east bank of the Hudson River." I used to want to try my luck there, there were so many wild animals that no one wanted to risk hiring someone to graze herd, but the pastures were good. ”

Zhao Chuanxin got up and patted him on the shoulder: "Xiao Wei, I am very optimistic about you, the heavens will definitely descend on you, can you bear it?" ”

Miao Cuihua, who was familiar with Zhao Chuanxin, immediately knew that Zhao Chuanxin might have to calculate people.

Courtesy to others, there must be something to ask for, which Zhao Chuanxin always deduces vividly.

But William Hope didn't understand, and he was flattered: "Sir, I don't know anything else but riding horses and herding cattle." ”

"Modesty, you Europeans and Americans are not good at this, you are too modest."

"Ah......h

Isn't this the usual European and American stereotype of Asians?

"I'm going to buy a bunch of cattle to keep in Kurdeks, what breed do you think I'm going to buy?"

William Hope thought for a moment and replied carefully: "Sir, Scottish hardy cattle, Jesse cattle, Holstein cattle, and brown Swiss cattle, these cattle can produce milk and meat, and they are more suitable cattle breeds for grazing in Kurdex. The land is close to New York City, whether it is beef or milk, there is no need to worry about sales. ”

Listening to what he said, it seems that this cowboy still has two brushes.

Zhao Chuanxin said: "How many cows do you think you can raise with your ability?" ”

"Sir, me and my guys, up to 400 heads. But Kurdex has many ferocious beasts, and if you have some sheepdogs, you can be sure that you will put 300 of them. ”

Zhao Chuanxin was taken aback.

Outside the Guan, because there is no pasture, even in later generations, the most individual cattle raised by Zhao Chuanxin are only thirty or fifty.

But William Hope opened and closed his mouth to three or four hundred.

Zhao Chuan's salary is a bit unreasonable, and now it's time to use money.

He asked with a little hesitation, "What is the price of a cow?" ”

Speaking of which, that's William Hope's specialty.

He said: "Sir, it depends on whether you want to produce milk or meat." I recommend buying a Holstein calf, a calf, which can cost $30 if it has a nice color, a good shelf, and thick legs. If it's ordinary, it's at least around $18. In order to produce quickly, the adult and young cows should be mixed, and it is best to buy the cow with the calf. The price of an adult cow varies widely, ranging from $80 to $150. If you want to buy it cheaply, it's better to go to the south and west and buy it, which can be at least $5-10 cheaper per cow......"

Zhao Chuan's salary is in the middle, and after a rough calculation, I Cao, I have a lot of money.

There must be additional configurations to buy cattle.

And he didn't have time to go west or south to buy cattle.

The thought of spending so much money made him even more hesitant.

The relocation of the factory, plus the purchase of cattle, is another big account.

Zhao Chuanxin stroked his hair: "Otherwise, don't have 400 heads, don't have 300 heads, I'm afraid you can't manage it, just 200 heads." ”

Didn't you just say that you want to make yourself a big responsibility?

William Hope was confused.

Why are you afraid that you won't be able to manage it now?

He was just about to speak, but Zhao Chuanxin interrupted him: "That's it." Williams, I'm optimistic about you. So, I'll keep this batch of cattle in your name. At the same time, you have to go to the local area to build a factory, which is also in your name. ”

This time it was William Hope's turn to be taken aback.

He stammered, his mouth dry: "Sir, I, I really don't understand anything else. ”

"Don't worry, I'll go with you. You can't learn slowly, there will always be a day. ”

Originally, Zhao Chuanxin didn't plan to suffer this crime.

But to raise 200 cows, that's not a small amount, and he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't go.

People in this era, regardless of the East or the West, dare not casually pick up pies falling from the sky.

William Hope hesitated, but Zhao Chuanxin didn't give him a chance, turned to Freddie Pavit and said, "Tomorrow, I will set off and take William to Kurdeks to explore the way first." Find a good place and I'll let you know. When the time comes, you slowly move the factory over. If someone else asks, you say that you are bankrupt and sell the equipment. ”

Freddie Pavit pulled Zhao Chuanxin aside and whispered, "Is this William Hope reliable?" ”

"I'm going to make him lose the courage to be greedy." Zhao Chuanxin said happily.

Benjamin Goldberg and Marcus Nkrumah went to the punching bag to practice boxing and came back breathlessly and said, "Master, I think I can beat everyone in the school." ”

Zhao Chuanxin looked at his little arms and legs and shook his head: "Obviously, you can't." ”

Benjamin Goldberg was a little frustrated.

"Master, then what's the use of me practicing boxing?"

"You have to learn like a teacher, and don't always be brave. Collecting the soldiers of the world, gathering Xianyang, and becoming the god of war in the universe is what a man should do. ”

Freddie Pavit wiped the sweat from her head.

If you want to say that the best man in the world, it should be the master, right?

Zhao Chuanxin continued: "Okay, don't talk this nonsense. Tomorrow, Master will take you to Kurdeks, and on the way we will design semi-automatic rifles. ”

……

While Zhao Chuanxin and the American consortium were engaged in turn-based moves, the rest of the world was also running at high speed.

Hawaii.

Since Hawaii was returned to the United States, the United States has introduced many laws targeting immigrants from Asia.

For example, the Qing Dynasty people are not allowed to have more than 25 people per boat, and they must have a special passport to land on the island.

At that time, Zhao Chuanxin and others were stopped at the port.

These laws also target Japanese immigrants, who in Hawaii are the largest group of immigrants.

Recently, Hawaii passed a law requiring all immigrants to be fingerprinted upon entry into Hawaii.

The Qing people were used to being bullied, and they didn't dare to resist at all.

But the Japanese blew up as soon as they heard it.

The Japanese now feel good about themselves, and since the victory in the Russo-Japanese War, especially the victory in the Battle of Tsushima, they feel that they can do it and can wrestle with the European and American powers.

Obviously, this law is aimed at the entire Asian community, but it is mainly aimed at Japanese immigrants to Hawaii.

Because there are too many of them, they have aroused the vigilance of the United States.

This contradiction has been backlogged for the time being.

After Zhao Chuanxin left Hawaii, Japan Plant Fertilizer Co., Ltd. planned to buy Hawaii's Golden Island, where it planned to plant pine trees as timber and build a large-scale agricultural park.

The local Karnaca people stopped when they heard it.

They planted sugar cane on the Golden Island, and the Japanese wanted to cut a side?

The contradiction broke out completely.

The Japanese and the Kanaka protested at the same time, but the Japanese protested against the United States by marching, and the Kanakas, led by the high priest, were fully prepared to fight with the Japanese crowd.

Despite the fact that they are now a Hawaiian minority, they are no worse than the Japanese in terms of belligerence.

American reporters were moved by the news and came to Hawaii to cover the news, wanting to get first-hand information.

And then

They heard the arrogant slogans of the Japanese emigrant march.

"Hawaii should belong to Japan!"

"Get out of Hawaii Americans, or the Japanese shell San Francisco!"

American journalists were stunned!

Who gave them the courage to shout that?

This kind of slogan will definitely not be groundless.

They began to investigate deeply, and found out that this slogan was shouted by a Japanese officer named Miyoshi Jozo in order to strengthen his emotions during his speech.

Of course, he doesn't represent Japan.

But in the eyes of American journalists, this is a provocation!

They also received information that the top echelons of the Japanese military circles, headed by Hasegawa Yoshimichi, often regard the United States as an imaginary enemy and envisage a war with the United States, and that Japanese warships will shell and land wherever they want.

When the news was published in American newspapers, some people laughed, some people felt that Japan was not capable of doing its own thing, and some people felt that Japan was a threat.

White House,

Da Luo put down the newspaper and first asked his secretary and assistant William Burrow: "The Queen of the Netherlands is arriving tomorrow, right?" ”

William Bro was a workaholic, the personal secretary of Da Luo, and everything went through him, no matter how big or small.

He said, "Yes, sir, I have arranged the formal reception, and the rest is up to Madame." ”

Da Luo ordered the newspaper again: "The Japanese are really arrogant. However, they are a jealous, allergic, and warlike people who can do anything, and they pose a great threat to Hawaii! ”

William Bloe nodded in agreement: "Sir, our Great White Fleet is almost ready, don't worry too much about Japan." ”

Da Luo was a little angry about Japan's attitude: "These damn bastards are always unwilling to stop. Let the Navy prepare, I will let them sail around the world before Christmas, so that the Japanese can see our force! ”
