"DO yOU dare tO threaten me! (You dare to threaten me!)"
Connor, Dewen seemed to have heard the funniest joke he had ever heard in his life. It was really a big joke that the son of a mere warlord dared to threaten him, the minister of the Great Eagle Empire.
You know, not even the princes and nobles of the court dared to threaten him like this, let alone the son of a small local army leader.
Connor, Dewen felt that his identity was insulted. He gritted his teeth and shouted to Su Yu, "Today, you will pay the price for your words and deeds!"
After saying that, Connor, Dewen and the other two negotiators slammed the door and left!
"I can't stand these bitches," Su Yu said angrily, slamming the table, "Sooner or later, I'm going to drive them all back to China!"
"Master, have we gone too far?"
"Wait too much," Su Yu glared at the butler and said, "People are standing on your head to piss on you, and if you still endure it, they will only go further and further. Just like the current court, they compromise again and again, and they Just getting closer step by step!"
"But!"
The steward continued, "The Great Eagle Empire is an established power today, and even new powers like Japan are very afraid of it. I also know that we cannot resist completely, but the Great Eagle Empire has tens of thousands of troops stationed in the concession, and the coastline is There are several large warships parked on it, and they can blow up our dock with just one shot, and there is nothing we can do to each other!"
Su Yu also understood what the housekeeper said.
Because of the incompetence of the Great Xia court, the backbones of many Chinese people have been broken in the past hundred years, so there is a kind of fear in the heart towards these foreign powers.
Because the other side is strong and we are weak, we will be beaten if we resist, so if we are bullied, we will suffer.
There is also a euphemistic way of saying that if the opponent is strong, we must endure it first and then seek development. After we develop and become strong, we can then resist.
Su Yu strongly disagrees with these two concepts. Forbearance is indispensable, but there is a bottom line. If others want to destroy your country and your species, but you still endure it, then you are incompetent.
What he says now is not nice, but he is actually trying to endure it.
If he were strong, the three Eagle Country guys just now would not be able to get out of this door, and it would be impossible for foreign troops to garrison on the land of Daxia!
But he is tolerant and will not be trampled on by others, but will resist to a certain extent. At the same time, he will develop his own strength, and when he becomes stronger, he will destroy these bullies in one fell swoop!
"Okay," Su Yu waved his hand and said, "I have confidence in this matter. You just have to do your own thing well."
After that, Su Yu asked the housekeeper, "How much liquidity does our company still have on its books now?"
"Nineteen million silver dollars," the steward responded. "In addition to these, we also have 7 million foreign debts for lending, and 2 million silver coins in gold bullion reserves."
Hearing this, Su Yu had to lament his predecessor's business ability. As long as he gave the other party three to five years, it was not impossible to become a wealthy man in Daxia, but this was an era where the gun was king.
"Take out 1 million silver dollars in cash for me and have someone send it to the security team for me."
"Yes, sir."
Su Yu's 1 million silver dollars are mainly used to train the security corps. According to the military salary given above, the average salary per person is 4 yuan, because the security corps is a local force and the regular army only pays 6 yuan.
Therefore, the current number of the security team is 3117. He announced that during the special training period, each person will receive an increase in military pay of one yuan per month, so he will have to pay more than 3,000 yuan per month. And he plans to give the brothers more during the special training period. Add extra meals to increase your physical fitness.
Of course, these expenses cannot consume his 1 million silver dollars. The main purpose of his 1 million silver dollars is to recruit reserve forces and turn them into regular troops when the time comes.
Time waits for no one, the empire is about to be stormy, the inside is in chaos, and the outside is even more glaring. He only has one regiment of troops in hand, how can he protect himself in this troubled time?
"Also," Su Yu continued to say to the housekeeper, "don't we still have nineteen shops on hand?"
"Yes, we plan to rent it out," the official said looking at Su Yu, "because the location is in the concession and needs to be opened up and down."
"No need to rent," Su Yu took out a drawing and said, "Renovate them all like this, and then set up a subsidiary called Millennium Foreign Trade Co., Ltd."
"Foreign companies, but us?"
"This is not easy," Su Yu said with a smile, "Money can make things work. All the employees in our foreign company are managed by foreigners, and the top management is our people. Isn't that what it is?"
"That's a way, but what do we, a foreign company, sell?"
"arms."
"What, arms!"
The housekeeper was also shocked when he heard the word "arms". In this era, if you want to talk about huge profits, it is definitely arms.
"That's right," Su Yu looked at the housekeeper and said, "foreigners are selling, why can't we sell? If we sell, we can seize the foreigners' business. If we don't sell, they will still make a lot of money."
"So, I will give you one month. These nineteen foreign banks need to be fully renovated and advertised. There is also the issue of personnel, and they must be fully recruited. After one month, these nineteen foreign banks need to be fully renovated and advertised. All open.”
"Understood."
Su Yu wants to use the world's nuclear peace to make huge profits from arms. Even if he doesn't sell it, others will, so it's better to make money from his own people.
Regarding the arms business, he originally wanted to wait until he became stronger in the future, but judging from the current situation in Daxia, he must develop his own strength as soon as possible.
He is now racing against time.
After finishing these tasks, he quickly left the company and came to the security team's station.
At this time, all officers and soldiers of the security group are undergoing special training. Because it is morning, everyone is undergoing professional training.
The machine gunners practiced machine guns under the guidance of the instructors, and the artillerymen practiced artillery control techniques under the guidance of Wang Wu. Anyway, everyone had their own things to do, and no one was idle.
For these three months of special training, Su Yu also used bullets. The cannonballs were completely free. He trained to death. As long as he could not die in training, he would practice to death. There was no need to save bullets or cannonballs for him.
At the regiment headquarters, Wang Wen was also studying tactical guidance with more than a dozen staff officers. Liao Yuanliang was also looking at the maps in front, including the map of Shanglu, the map of Daxia, and the world map.
"Yuanliang, come here for a moment."
"Oh, here it comes."
Liao Yuanliang came to Su Yu and said, "Captain, with this batch of arms, the strength of our security group is already higher than that of the regular army. After these three months of special training, our security group can be called a Elite troops.”
