Chapter 214: Confrontation is better than cooperation
Zhou Yu didn't rush to urge, he knew that this matter sounded a bit unbelievable, but Situ Meitang was a smart person, and he only needed to leave enough time for the other party to judge and decide.
Either that men don't know each other if they don't fight, after just a short period of joining forces to resist the enemy, Situ Meitang is no longer so resistant to Zhou Yu subconsciously.
He thought about it, he was the only one in this matter, there was no possibility of suffering, and he had no reason to refuse.
"May I ask you what you want to do with that? What kind of technology do you need money for? What kind of military industry? Are you going to play a military coup d'Γ©tat in the New World and set yourself up as king? β
Zhou Yu waved his hand and smiled: "Brother Situ, you think too highly of me, I haven't died to that point, and I still recognize how many catties and taels I have~."
Yes, the Dragon Chamber of Commerce is doing well now and making a little money, but if we openly argue with the federal government, I believe that under the crushing of the power machine, everything we have gained will be wiped out in an instant, and it will cease to exist.
Rip the ground in the middle of a fairly intact and powerful and wealthy empire? I'm afraid that only YY novels dare to write this kind of bridge. β
"This ......" Situ Meitang said with a strange expression: "But the projects you said are not something that a businessman should consider, but more like a politician." β
Zhou Yu sighed lightly and said, "Brother Situ, do you still have an impression of our hometown and our motherland?" β
Situ Meitang didn't understand what he meant by asking, but he still replied in a deep voice: "I was sold to a labor ship at the age of twelve, transported to the New World to dig coal and build railways, and at the age of fifteen, I made a small name with a pair of iron fists, and gathered a group of people at the dock to establish a small gang of my own.
At the age of eighteen, I entered Anliang Hall and worked my way up to the position of the head of the Boston branch, and to be honest, that hometown was already a little vague in my memory, and all I could remember was poverty, dirtiness, and depravity, as if I would never see the ruin of hope. β
Zhou Yu nodded and said: "Yes, it was a difficult day in our hometown, but no matter what, it is our home, and the mother will never discount her maternal love because the child is good-looking or not, and no matter where a child travels, there is only one place in his heart, and that is the hometown where he was born and raised."
What I am doing now is to pull it back and drag it back into the right track in the process of sliding into the abyss, so that our 40,000,000 compatriots in China will suffer less crimes, suffer less, sacrifice less, and leave more fire. β
Speaking of this, Zhou Yu laughed at himself and said, "Brother Situ probably thinks that I have a problem with my brain, but this is what I really think, and this is what I want to do."
I can't explain the specifics to you now, I just know that time is running out, I don't have the time, I don't have the energy to spend on the scam between the gangs, there are still a lot of important things to do, and there are more meaningful business to discuss.
Because it can save a lot of people, many, many people, so much that you can't imagine it, believe it or not, that's what I really think at the moment, and I want to change that and do my best. β
Zhou Yu knew that no matter who he told about this theory, it would be difficult for people to believe it, after all, it had not happened yet.
Now Hitler is still a homeless man who was rejected by art school and ate the last meal without the next meal.
At this time, Mosolini was still a bastard who knew about fighting all day.
Roosevelt was enjoying the holidays with his family, and no one could have imagined that a few years later they would be embroiled in one of the largest wars in human history, a war that would sweep the world.
His homeland, his countrymen, everything he cares about will fall into purgatory and suffer in the war.
After listening to Zhou Yu's words, Situ Meitang could say that his head was full of mush.
On the one hand, he felt that this person must be crazy, and on the other hand, he felt that Zhou Yu was not a Holy Mother with a shining halo?
However, he doesn't care whether the other party is a madman or a virgin, he is only sure of one thing, that is, Boss Zhou of the Longxing Chamber of Commerce will give him the position of president of the Chinese Federation, and will also set up a joint-stock company and let him manage Chinatown on his behalf.
This is a real benefit, it is real money, it can't be faked, no matter whether the illusory things Zhou Yu said are true or false, Situ Meitang has no loss, this is the most important thing.
Situ Meitang raised his hand and wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment and not knowing how to speak, he still tried to say:
"You are really different from ordinary people, you are a veritable madman, to be honest, I only understood about 20% of what you just said, but I understand the main content, you want money, a lot of money, you have to use this money to make investments, and then use that money to save our compatriots in our hometown, is that what it means?"
"Although the words are a bit broad, eight or nine are not separated from ten, that's what it means."
Zhou Yu's affirmative reply made Situ Meitang nod thoughtfully, picked up the red wine again and took a sip and said: "If it is really like what you said, I can agree, but before I really sit in the position of president of the Chinese Federation, I will reserve my opinion, who knows if you, a madman, will suddenly regret it?" β
"Hahaha~~ Maybe in your eyes I'm really a madman, or maybe I'm a Lotus Mother, but it doesn't matter, I don't care what others think of me, my goal is very certain from the beginning, or no one in this world can fully understand me."
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu added in his heart, "Unless there is another compatriot traverser in this world." β
Situ Meitang no longer bothered about this problem, and immediately raised the goblet in his hand and said, "So...... For the time being, I wish us a happy cooperation. β
Zhou Yu raised his wine glass with a smile, and touched the other party with a "ding" and said, "Happy cooperation." β
In this way, the two people who fought to the death the day before decided the future route of New York's Chinatown and An Liangtang in such an environment full of blood and corpses.
Confrontation is better than cooperation, Zhou Yu has taken another step towards his goal, but compared to what he really wants to do, this is just the beginning.
With the passage of time, the winter in New York has quietly left, the spring flowers are blooming, everything is recovering, and the pedestrians on the streets are becoming thinner and thinner.
Unlike London, where men tend to be gentlemen and have to wear three-piece suits for decency even on hot days, the men of New York, especially the young, have changed into light jackets and wide trousers, mousse on their heads, and are not bound by top hats.
And the skirts on the ladies are getting shorter and shorter, of course, this shortness is only relative, and the current skirts are only ankle-baring.
At the same time, squeezed by the Treaty of Versailles, the lives of the people at the bottom of Germany were miserable, and Sara and Di Maria took all their savings, sold most of their recipes and belongings, and sailed to this devastated country.
However, just as they were wondering where to find a sponsor, they heard a high-spirited man singing in a shabby, dirty tavern.
[Let the enemies of the empire appear immediately~~ We are ready to meet each other in close arms~~ From the Eastern Desert to the Plains~~ The enemy does not dare to make a fool of it~~Germany relies on the German sword~~The power of the empire is unshakable~~]
The man's singing was so impassioned, so infectious, that several of the drinkers around him howled and raised their beer glasses and sang along.
Sara had cut her hair short at the moment, dressed in coarse linen clothes, dressed as a man, and she was unconsciously attracted by this man's singing, and couldn't help but cast her eyes.
The man finished singing the song and drank the beer in his mouth, regardless of the spills on his body and legs.
He stood on the wooden stool, and then on the table, waved his hands, and began to speak generously to the crowd, and said something with emotion.
Sara and Di Maria's German was just getting started, and the passionate man standing in front of them spoke so fast that they couldn't understand a word.
But this did not affect the atmosphere around the atmosphere was inexplicably elevated, as evidenced by the warm applause and cheers of those drinkers from time to time.
Suddenly, a drinker with flushed cheeks pulled a few bills out of his pocket and slapped them on the table.
"I donate three hundred marks to the Nazi Party~! So that we can print more slogans and slogans~~ Adolf, you can really fucking say it~~ Why didn't you find out that you had this talent before? We should take to the streets and let more people hear your voice~! β
It was only then that Sara finally heard what the other party was saying, and it turned out that the man who had just led the way and sang impassionedly was named Adolf.
At this moment, he saw Adolf holding up the banknotes, looked around at everyone and said: "The miserable situation in Germany must be broken with German steel, and that time will inevitably come!" Compatriots, friends, I decided to go to a few more taverns and increase the number of speeches today to eleven times~! β
"Oh oh oh~~~"
The crowd around cheered, but Sarah's eyes were slightly open, this guy, this kind of infectious and passionate speech can he speak eleven times a day? So it seems...... I could have paid more attention to him for a while.
