Today, the Black Dragon Guild in the Magic City has become famous again. The president of his family was assassinated in front of his guild hall.
Although people from the Black Dragon Society immediately dispatched to block the nearby entrances and exits. The police station in Shanghai was notified as soon as possible. But this time Xiaori's prestige in the Magic City was completely gone.
In the past, it was because the Black Dragon Society had the backing of the small country. He is arrogant and domineering in the devil's capital. No one dares to mess with him at all. But no one did it twice around this year. Another time, the Black Dragon Guild Hall was bombed, but no one was caught.
Then some people in the Magic City began to rebel against the Black Dragon Society. In the following days, some gangs even directly fought with the Black Dragon Society, but that was a story for another day.
At this time, Lu Chen and Ike were driving to the pier. Lu Chen saw that a checkpoint had been set up at the entrance of the pier. Checks on people entering the dock have begun.
"Hey, did the police in Shanghai City move very quickly this time? It has only been less than an hour, and the checkpoints have been completed."
Lu Chen looked at the checkpoint and said with some surprise.
Ike's car stopped at the checkpoint, and several military policemen walked toward the car fiercely. After seeing clearly that Ike is a foreigner. He immediately turned into a flattering look.
"Please show us your ID, please."
Lu Chen and Ike both handed over their IDs.
The military police looked at both of their IDs and immediately returned them. Without even checking their car again, they shouted at the checkpoint behind them.
"Let it go, let it go."
After Lu Chen and his car entered the pier, a police officer next to them asked:
"Boss, their car hasn't been inspected yet, so you just let them go."
The police officer who was called the head turned around and kicked the police officer who asked the question.
"Damn it, you're hurting me. One of the people above is a German and the other is an American. If they tell the superiors that we are deliberately looking for trouble, we won't get any good results."
Lu Chen and Ike entered the pier smoothly, drove the car to the warehouse rented by William on the pier, parked it, and then walked towards the cruise ship calmly.
Fu Mingzhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Chen arrived on the cruise ship safe and sound. Damn it, Lu Chen is really annoying. I don’t know what he was doing now, it took him so long to reunite with him.
Not long after, the cruise ship slowly sailed out of the pier. Heading towards New York.
The cruise ship sailed on the sea for a month and finally arrived in New York.
Lu Chen walked off the cruise ship with a group of people. Then he went to the phone booth on the pier and called Hans.
"Hans, Ike and I are at the New York pier now. There are more than ten people following me back this time. You bring two cars over to pick me up."
"Okay boss. You wait at the dock, we will be there in half an hour."
Half an hour later, Hans and Locke arrived at the dock in a small truck. Picked up Lu Chen and more than ten people and brought them back to the manor.
As soon as Lu Chen entered the villa, Chen Jianghe found Lu Chen.
"Lu Chen, why are you back? If you don't come back, I will send you a telegram."
Then Chen Jianghe saw Fu Mingzhuo behind Lu Chen. He quickly ran over in surprise and gave Fu Mingzhuo a hug.
"Mingzhuo, Lu Chen has brought you here too. That's great. We haven't seen each other for a few years."
Lu Chen looked at the two people. Do they know each other? Should I ask, or forget it, just in case I knew something about the two of them knowing each other before. Hey, the memory of the original owner is too complicated and messy, so I’d better find some time to sort it out. Otherwise the secret will be revealed sooner or later.
Fu Mingzhuo felt a little disappointed when he saw Chen Jianghe.
"Hey, Jianghu, Lu's Textile Factory is gone. I didn't keep the factory. I broke my promise."
Chen Jianghe glanced at Lu Chen and said:
"This is none of your business. Lu Chen said that he is going to rebuild Lu's textile factory here in the United States. As long as we rebuild the textile factory here, we will live up to the cultivation of Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu."
After hearing Chen Jianghe's words, Fu Mingzhuo's eyes lit up. He looked at Lu Chen and asked:
"What Brother Jiang He said is true. You really want to rebuild Lu's Textile Factory."
Lu Chen nodded and said:
"I want to build a textile factory. I'm just curious. I haven't seen you interested in rebuilding a textile factory in China."
Fu Mingzhuo looked at Lu Chen disdainfully.
"Is it useful to you at home? I have already saved 1,000 yuan. I plan to rebuild a textile factory by myself when I save enough money."
Damn it, why are they both so interested in the textile factory? Lu Chen was puzzled. But he didn't ask, anyway, as long as these two people could help him. Asking too many questions is not good for yourself. He looked at Chen Jianghe and asked:
"Brother Chen, did you have something to tell me just now?"
Chen Jianghe reacted quickly. He patted his head and said to Lu Chen:
"I almost forgot about the real thing. It's like this. After you returned to China, for some reason, all the Chinese employees in our factory suddenly resigned. Now there are only more than 20 employees left in the factory, and we can't even operate normal production. "
Lu Chen frowned and asked:
"Have you checked why they resigned?"
Chen Jianghe touched his head and said:
"I haven't yet. I have been designing the cars you drew for me in the laboratory. I only discovered the problem recently after finishing the designs and preparing them for trial production."
Lu Chen was speechless. He was indeed a man from science and engineering who was busy doing research. Lu Chen was a little surprised. Wasn't Chen Jianghe in the factory every day? Didn't he notice when he went to school and returned to the factory every day? Wasn't he in the factory?
"Brother Chen, weren't you in the factory during this time?"
Chen Jianghe touched his head and said sheepishly: "I was in the factory, but I didn't go to the workshop. The management of that workshop didn't report this to me either."
Lu Chen was a little angry. There were so many people leaving the workshop, but you, the workshop supervisor, didn't report to the factory.
"Where's that workshop manager? Fire him."
Chen Jianghe said uncertainly:
"It seems he's gone too."
Lu Chen was stunned. This is not normal. The salary Lu Chen paid to the workshop supervisor was not low. I gave them forty or fifty dollars a month. How can a Chinese earn such a high salary and this is during the Great Depression? Even an individual would not resign for no reason.
Lu Chen decided to find out the circumstances of these people's resignation first.
Lu Chen was allowed to rest at home for a day. I will go to the factory tomorrow to take out the home address information that the employees filled in when they were hired. Then go to those employees and find out what's going on.
"Brother Chen, we just came back today. Let's rest for a day. I will take Fu Mingzhuo to relieve himself tomorrow."
"What, Lu Chen is back and has brought more than ten people with him?"
Yamazaka Erkaku said excitedly in the martial arts hall as he looked at the people at the foot of the mountain who came to report to him.
"Yes, Mr. Yamanaka, our people arranged near Lu Chen's house saw Lu Chen coming back in a car today."
"Yamashita-kun, go and arrange for someone to ambush Lu Chen on his way to the factory. We must kill Lu Chen this time."
"Yamanaka-kun, how are you sure that Lu Chen will go to the factory?"
Yamanaka Erguan smiled and explained:
"During this period, Sun Yuanlin asked his men to go to Lu Chen's factory and threaten all the Chinese employees there. All those employees resigned en masse.
Such a big thing happened, and Lu Chen didn't know that Sun Yuanlin was responsible. He would definitely go to the factory to find out the reason. I just don’t know when he will go. Ask the people following Lu Chen to keep an eye on Lu Chen’s movements. As soon as Lu Chen goes out, he will report immediately. "
"I'll make arrangements right away."
After saying that, the people at the bottom of the mountain went down and arranged for people to prepare to assassinate Lu Chen.
The next day, Lu Chen, Fu Mingzhuo, Qin Jian and others boarded Hans's car and rushed to the factory.
As soon as Lu Chen and the others went out, they were immediately spotted by someone who was following the Black Dragon Society. The people following him passed the news to the second pass in the mountain as quickly as possible.
The second pass in the mountain immediately informed the people at the foot of the mountain. The people at the foot of the mountain, with more than a dozen little ones, were waiting for the arrival of Lu Chen and his group on the only way they could pass by.
Lu Chen's motorcade was stopped halfway by Adams.
After intercepting Lu Chen, Adams immediately ran to Lu Chen and said:
"Lu Chen, where have you been during this time? Why can't I find you?"
Lu Chen was surprised to see that it was Adams blocking his way. Something big had happened that made him drive to cut him off.
"Adams, why is it so urgent?"
"Lu, the UK is recently preparing to sell a group of oilfield exploration rights. After the government received the news, it immediately invited a group of people from consortiums and oil companies to participate in the auction. You have also been invited by the government.
Since I haven't been able to contact you some time ago, and you have always wanted to enter the oil industry, I took it upon myself to help you agree. Now the government is about to take people out. Fortunately, you're back, otherwise I wouldn't know how to explain it to the above. You can follow me there now, Minister Jess and the others are waiting for you. "
Lu Chen was depressed. It seemed that he would not be able to go to the factory today. The same goes for Adams. If he can't find him, he doesn't know how to look for Chen Jianghe. Even if he doesn't look for Chen Jianghe, you can just look for Hans and the others.
Lu Chen said to Hans: "Hans, change the itinerary. Adams and I will go to the city hall. You all follow us in the car."
"Okay, boss."
After explaining, Lu Chen got into Adams' car.
When they arrived at the city hall, Adams dragged Lu Chen to Jess's office.
"Minister Jess, we're here."
Jess saw that it was Adams and Lu Chen who were coming, and enthusiastically asked them to sit down.
"Thank you both for supporting our work. I thought you couldn't come, Mr. Lu."
Lu Chen quickly thought of an excuse:
"Minister Jess, I'm really sorry. I've been too busy recently, so I forgot about it."
"I don't know what Mr. Lu has been busy with recently, and he can even forget such important things."
Lu Chen was quickly thinking of words in his mind.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that there were some problems with a factory I ran."
"Oh, Mr. Lu, do you still have a factory in New York? I don't know what went wrong. Do you need my help?"
Jace said politely.
Jace actually said that he wanted to help. Lu Chen felt happy and said quickly:
"Mr. Jess, it's like this. My factory needs to recruit a group of workers, but the people in New York don't seem to be willing to work there. I haven't recruited a few people yet."
When Jess heard this, he realized that such a thing still existed. The government was now worried about a large number of unemployed workers. And Lu Chen actually said that his company couldn't recruit people. This wouldn't be Lu Chen taking the initiative to express his kindness to him. After all, every official in the government is now tasked with solving the employment problem of a certain number of workers.
He asked tentatively:
"Mr. Lu, I don't know what your factory does and how many people you need to recruit."
Lu Chen replied:
"My company produces motorcycles, and the company still needs to recruit more than 80 workers. If there are technicians, we would also like to recruit a dozen people."
Hearing that Lu Chen needed hundreds of people, Jace was very happy. The target he was assigned was to solve the work problem of 1,000 people. He has been to a lot of companies recently and managed to solve three to four hundred people with his old face. Lu Chen killed a hundred people for him in one go. He said to Lu Chen enthusiastically:
"Mr. Lu, leave this matter to me, and I promise to solve it for you. I will send the workers to your factory in two days, tell me the address, and then the people in your factory will be responsible for receiving them."
Lu Chen said happily: "Thank you so much, Mr. Jess."
After speaking, Lu Chen wrote down the address of his company and handed it to Jess.
"Mr. Lu Chen, now that your company's problem has been solved, let's talk about the oil field auction this time."
Lu Chen nodded,
"Mr. Jess, please speak."
"It's like this. Hasn't the government always encouraged our country's oil companies to expand overseas? This time the government plans to let you rich people take over the oil fields, and then let the country's oil companies exploit them. Of course, the shares between you The government will not be involved in the proportion distribution. It is up to you to negotiate with the oil companies."
Lu Chen nodded
"This is very good, otherwise we won't be able to exploit the oil field if we take it."
Jess continued: "Since Mr. Lu agrees to this proposal, please prepare Mr. Lu to leave. We have prepared a plane for you. It will set sail for London at 12 noon tomorrow."
Lu Chen got up and said goodbye to Jess before returning to the motorcade. Then he ordered Hans to take the people home.
Fu Mingzhuo asked:
"Lu Chen, I think it's still early. Let's continue going to the factory. I heard from Chen Jianghe that the factory will organize production soon. If the workers' problem is not solved, there will be no production."
"Fuck you, don't go. These people don't want to make money anymore. Why should we care about them? The workers' matter has been solved. You can follow Chen Jianghe to the factory tomorrow to get familiar with it, and then someone will take care of it in two days. The workers send it to the factory. You can just receive it when the time comes."
Fu Mingzhuo was very surprised. He didn't expect Lu Chen to go to the city hall and solve the problem just like that. Now that there are workers, they naturally don't need to pay attention to those workers who resigned.
The people at the foot of the mountain waited at the ambush site for more than an hour, but did not see Lu Chen's motorcade. The people at the bottom of the mountain were a little angry. He asked someone to contact the second gate in the mountain. The second gate in the mountain had received a report from the stalker, saying that Lu Chen and his party had returned to the villa.
The second pass in the mountain could only lament Lu Chen's good luck. I can only order people to inform the people at the foot of the mountain. The ambush was withdrawn.
