In fact, the essential oil massage project that Tang Cheng gave to Smith was just the result of his impromptu initiative. Tang Cheng did not expect this project to make money. He just wanted to use this matter to maintain contact with Smith. It has to be said that the Germans are really serious about sitting back and watching. In just half a month, all the preparations have been made for the horizontal railway that Tangcheng wants, and construction is about to begin. Tangcheng fully supports this. He has always been wary of Americans and hopes that this railway can be completed as soon as possible.
When the railway was built, Hans, who had traveled to Europe, returned here with a large number of construction machinery. However, Tangcheng did not give Hans time to rest, but urged him to go to the United States immediately. "Smith told me that Dodge has launched a heavy-duty truck. When you go over this time, you will not only order their heavy-duty truck, but also register a patent for it." Tangcheng handed Hans a piece of information, but Hans didn't see it. This is why. Tang Cheng could only be patient and explain to Hans. The latter was very happy after hearing this and said that the opportunity to make money had come again.
Like Tang Cheng, as long as it is a business matter, Hans also likes to make the business bigger first, and then divide the profits with his partners. Moreover, Hans studied the information that Tang Cheng gave him for several days afterwards, and finally took the people to the United States with great joy. The information Tang Cheng gave to Hans was a reward he won from the system. It was a technical information on artificial diamonds. The largest diamond company in the world today is De Beers of the United Kingdom. They monopolize more than 70% of the world’s diamond business.
Strictly speaking, diamonds are just a mineral, and their value is not even comparable to the jade and white jade that the Chinese love. It is only because of the publicity and monopoly sales of diamond companies that diamonds become valuable. In fact, artificial diamonds were successfully synthesized for the first time in 1954. At that time, a group of General Electric researchers created a diamond in the laboratory. They imitated the environment in which diamonds are formed in nature and subjected carbon to extreme high temperatures and pressures. After this, another method of producing synthetic diamonds was also successfully developed. This method, called chemical vapor deposition, deposits carbon from a carbon-containing mixed gas into a diamond matrix at very low pressure and relatively low temperature.
In the information that Tang Cheng gave to Hans, the technology for manufacturing artificial diamonds has matured, and even the best diamantaires cannot tell the difference between the artificial diamonds produced. If it weren't for the fact that the professional equipment required for this technology was in the United States, Tangcheng would not have let Hans go to the United States with technical information to seek partners. For now, the market for artificial diamonds is huge. As long as the technical information is not leaked, no one will know that these are artificial diamonds.
Not long after Hans arrived in the United States, he sent a telegram to Tangcheng, saying that he had successfully established a relationship with the Morgan family. Through the channels of the Morgan family, they had successfully produced the first bomb in the laboratory. A man-made diamond, and a yellow colored diamond. The Morgan family took this yellow colored diamond and visited almost all jewelry companies in the United States, but no one could identify it as a man-made diamond. The result is gratifying. Hans, on behalf of Tangcheng, has signed an agreement with the Morgan family.
The Morgan family holds 40% of the shares in the jewelry company. Of the remaining 60%, Tangcheng used this technical information to become a shareholder, so it holds three shares. The remaining three shares were divided by the Morgan family to two other consortiums in the United States. According to Tang Cheng's plan, the Morgan family will soon send people to the African continent to acquire a diamond mine that originally belonged to the French. As long as there are diamond mines, the Moen family's jewelry company will have a legal reason to sell diamonds.
We are at least a few years away from 1954. Even in 1954, those few General Electric Channel researchers can still develop the process of artificial diamonds. In just a few years, it was enough for the Morgan family's jewelry company to sell a large number of high-quality man-made diamonds, thereby reaping large profits. A high-quality artificial diamond costs only one-third or less of a natural diamond, and can easily harvest a large amount of wealth. No wonder the Morgan family immediately signed an agreement with Hans.
Although Tangcheng only acquired 30% of the shares, Hans became connected with the Morgan family. The family was very powerful in the United States and was definitely beneficial to Tangcheng. After getting the good news, Tang Cheng did not let Hans come back. Instead, he arranged for someone to go to the United States with several other pieces of information. Tang Cheng has extracted a lot of this kind of business information from the system. Since Hans has already established a relationship with the Morgan family, it is better to make the business relationship between the two parties more stable.
A week later, a luggage company named Apple was successfully registered in the United States. There is no doubt that this luggage company called Apple is the product of the cooperation between Hans and the Morgan family. Trolley cases are the flagship product of this luggage company. In addition, this luggage company also sells women's satchels and cosmetic bags. The design concept that was decades ahead of its time has made this luggage company called Apple an instant hit in the United States. It can especially customize women's satchels with family crests and logos, which are hard to find.
The rich rewards made Hans happy to be in the United States. Tangcheng, far away in Thailand, was not idle during this period. He led Tang Hu's young army to carry out a continuous dragnet-style siege in southern Thailand. The local forces here were completely wiped out. Not all local Thais want to fight against Tangcheng, especially when railways and docks began to be built here. Many of them got job opportunities. Even the old, the weak, women and children who cannot lift with their shoulders or hands can still make money by setting up stalls around the construction site.
Coupled with the entry of a large number of foreign construction workers, the southern area soon became lively, showing a vibrant scene. The situation in Thailand is good, and the situation in Myanmar is even better. As the Zionist Army once again provokes war, the Myanmar arsenal begins to work overtime continuously to produce bullets and explosives for the Zionist Army. Zhang Jianghe, who has already learned about the Tangcheng plan, is leading people to install new equipment from Europe. He believes that the arsenal in northern Myanmar will soon be able to produce artillery shells.
As the domestic situation continues to change, the number of Chinese going south to Myanmar is also increasing. The Wanding Port, which was originally ordered to be closed by the national government, has also been quietly opened by the local garrison. These soldiers, who have been forgotten by the national government, also need to make money to support their families. So far, the number of Chinese in Myanmar has rapidly increased to 1.5 million, and this number is still increasing. The number expected by Tangcheng is that there are more than 10 million Chinese in Myanmar. Only in this way can the Chinese in Myanmar firmly occupy a dominant position.
Everything is moving in a good direction, and Tangcheng in southern Thailand has been solved. I can only breathe a sigh of relief temporarily. After all, central Thailand is still a mess. Just when Tang Cheng was about to return to Myanmar, Thomas, who was far away in the UK, finally contacted Tang Cheng. There was no movement on the textile factory agreed between the two parties, and Thomas seemed a little anxious. According to the previous agreement between the two parties, Thomas has already completed the relevant machinery and equipment in the UK. Next, Tangcheng needs to coordinate the infrastructure construction of the textile factory.
The textile factory Thomas works with seems ordinary, but it is an important part of Tangcheng's plan. If the textile factory that cooperates with Thomas is established in southern Thailand, Tangcheng can use the name of the textile factory to order large quantities of superior cotton from Egypt. In the one-on-one seventeenth battle a few years later, Rabbit's army will face the dilemma of lack of food and clothing. Tangcheng can take the opportunity to secretly transport a large amount of cotton to the north. At least, Rabbit's army will not suffer from lack of cold protection. A large number of non-combat casualties occurred due to the loss of clothing.
Moreover, once there is a horizontal railway in southern Thailand, this textile factory will be able to occupy a geographical advantage and radiate to the entire South Asia region, including Japan. By the time the proud Hans returned from the United States, it was already a month later. Most of the textile factory that Tang Cheng personally supervised had been built. Hans was not just a proud boatman this time. He also followed Tang Cheng's instructions and used the first dividend from the jewelry company to directly purchase two large transport ships from the United States through the channels of the Morgan family.
"Don, you didn't see the scene at that time. There are so many rich people in the United States! I didn't expect that the Morgan family actually used those artificial diamonds to hold a diamond auction. The biggest news in the United States now, This is not a tidbit from the president, but the Morgan family has found a diamond mine on the African continent, a super diamond mine that can produce colored diamonds."
The first thing Hans brought to Tangcheng was the good news about artificial diamonds. A super auction with a total auction amount of more than nine million US dollars made Hans ecstatic. When Tang Cheng heard this, he secretly curled his lips, thinking that Solovich's printing house could print counterfeit $10 million banknotes in only half a month. If it were not for finding a strong partner in the United States, Tang Cheng would not have bothered with this effort.
The two transport ships that Hans brought back originally belonged to a California businessman. This guy originally wanted to do shipping business because he thought that the European War would continue for a few more years. But he didn't expect that the European War would be over just after he went to the shipyard to place an order. The ship was half built, and Japan also surrendered. His idea of doing military business was considered bankrupt. Hans took advantage of the situation this time and bought these two newly built large transport ships at the lowest price.
"The situation in the United States is not calm. I heard from the Morgan family that some people in the U.S. Congress have expressed dissatisfaction with what MacArthur did in Japan. Many members of Congress feel that the Japanese cannot be trusted and they are worried about Japan. Once they regain their strength, they will rebel and break away from American control. Compared with Japan, many members of Congress feel that the one in Nanjing is a good agent."
