Enjoy the world

After finishing this paragraph, Manman asked again: "What does it mean to see only clothes but no people?"

Hua Zhenxing: "This is a metaphor, which means that they have no position, only pure utilitarianism and practicality. For example, if you want to wear beautiful clothes, it is to dress yourself up beautifully. But some people are like clothes racks in a store , the clothes rack is just to display the clothes more beautifully.”

Manman blinked for a long time, feeling half-understood but also enlightened, and then asked: "Is there any more story?"

Hua Zhenxing: "There is another famous story, that is, the death of Su Qin..."

Su Qin was stabbed by someone sent by someone fighting for power in Qi State. The injury was so serious that it was difficult to treat. The king of Qi wanted to catch the murderer but failed. Before Su Qin died, he told the King of Qi: "My body will be publicly executed as a chariot, and I will be declared to the outside world as a spy sent by the State of Yan, and a reward will be offered to those who assassinate me."

The King of Qi acted according to his plan, and the assassin came to collect the reward himself, so the King of Qi executed the assassin. This is the story of Su Qin's legacy and his revenge after his death.

Manman wondered: "Is the killer a fool? He is a murderer, so he dares to receive the reward? Is King Qi also a fool? He just did what Su Qin said? Listen to the story you just told, that man is Su Qin You're not stupid, why did you come up with such a stupid idea?"

Manman is not from Dongguo and does not understand this period of history. She has no preconceived notions. It is just the first time she has heard such a story, so she naturally has questions.

Moreover, Manman is definitely not a person who knows how to maneuver and deceive. Her education in this aspect is not much better than that of ordinary people in the Eastern Kingdom during the Warring States Period. Even she thought the assassin was a fool, and he probably really was a fool.

"You're right to ask!" Hua Zhenxing couldn't help but stretched out his finger and flicked the tip of Manman's nose. "I asked the same question at the beginning, but old man Yang told me that Su Qin is not stupid, and he also knows about the assassin. It is unlikely that he is a fool, but he has been playing Machiavellian tactics all his life, and even in death he has to play tricks.

King Qi wanted to catch the assassin, so Su Qin told King Qi a way to catch the assassin. Regardless of whether it is a real assassin or a fake assassin, even if you kill a random death row prisoner, if you do it according to his method, everyone will admit that he is an assassin, and they will think that Su Qin is great and can avenge himself after his death. "

Manman: "You mean, the king killed another person but claimed that person was the killer?"

Hua Zhenxing: "I'm not saying that this must be the case, but it's very possible. It's definitely not possible to do it directly, because it's not easy for people to believe it, but with this strategy, the credibility is high. It is said that King Qi only executed the man who came to collect the money. I didn’t hear that he had found out the mastermind behind the murder.”

At this time, Li Xiaoyang came in and greeted with a smile: "Oh, is Manman learning to write?"

Hua Zhenxing raised his head and smiled: "You came just in time, let's have lunch together."

Li Xiaoyang: "If I weren't afraid of disturbing you, I would eat three meals a day here. I made an appointment with Lei Gong this afternoon, and we just happened to go together after dinner."

Huazhen Bank has been a bit "not doing business" these days and has no time to sit at the counter. Old Yang also went to the Palm Manor to enjoy himself. The business of the grocery store was left to Li Xiaoyang to take care of. Li Xiaoyang also played a guest role as a gold inspector and collector for several days. ,.

Now that the acquisition point has been moved to Fesuogang Supply and Marketing Cooperative, Li Xiaoyang no longer needs to do these things himself. But Huazhen Bank was still very busy, so Li Xiaoyang sent several people from the supply and marketing cooperative to take turns to be "on duty" at the grocery store.

When people come to help look after the shop, Huazhenxing is always embarrassed to leave food alone, so he makes extra portions of lunch and dinner and brings them to the counter outside. As the vice president of Huanxiang Industrial and the director of the engineering project department, Li Xiaoyang has a lot to do, so he doesn't need to go to the grocery store all the time.

But whenever he had free time, Li Xiaoyang would come here. Even if someone had been assigned to be on duty, he would still come to take a look in person, basically rushing to eat. Isn’t the food in the supply and marketing cooperative’s canteen delicious? It’s really not as delicious as Xiaohua’s. Hua Zhenxing has been studying the knowledge of cooking with Manman these days, and by the way, he explains and tutors the cultivation of Yangyuan.

The Project Engineering Department is responsible for projects within the Beisuo River Basin. The Beisuo River is now only in the sand table and does not exist on the actual map. Huazhenxing's plan is to restore this historical river and reclaim 80,000 acres of modern farms.

Wang Fengshou is the director of the second project engineering department. The second department is responsible for projects in Fesoport urban area, so Ke Mengchao asked him to take Locke to deal with the "superstructure" of Beiwan District.

At present, Huanxiang Industrial has successfully completed the land acquisition. The 300 square kilometers of land was purchased in seven pieces. The Fiso Port authorities were short of money, and could hardly pay the salaries of municipal officials. Someone actually came to take advantage of him, and they quickly completed the transaction and completed all the legal procedures.

The purchase of these lands, including various formalities, plus the upfront costs of establishing Huanxiang Industrial Headquarters, Fesuogang Supply and Marketing Cooperative, etc., cost a total of almost 10 million rice. It has been almost a month since Huanxiang Industrial was established, and the largest single expenditure was the mining gold acquisition fund for Huazhen Bank, with 40 million meters of gold prepared.

This money was not counted on Huazhenxing personally, but was nominally the registered capital of Kelin Mining. The mining company has spent more than 30 million meters of gold, and all the mineral gold inventories of various forces in Africa's Port have been basically emptied. If they want to acquire it again, they can only wait for new output.

Hua Zhenxing calculated that if he wanted to complete the task of refining pure gold of the same size as himself, he would need almost two tons of mine gold. There is still a gap, and it is estimated that it will not be filled until the end of the heavy rain season.

Hua Zhenxing doesn't have to worry, he still has to refine it slowly. The process of refining pure gold is the process of the mining company withdrawing funds and making profits.

This business is a sure profit. Huazhenxing takes in gold at the price of 600 meters per ounce, and can extract 70% pure gold. The price of pure gold is 2 kilometers of gold per ounce, and Still rising.

The cost of acquiring two tons of mined gold is 40 million meters of gold. The final revenue can reach more than 93 million meters, and the net profit is more than 50 million meters of gold.

Of course, this business will continue in the future. The only limitation is the scale of mineral gold output. It is difficult to acquire so much mineral gold at once. A while ago, it was equivalent to all the forces in Africa's Soso Port over the years. The inventory was wiped out.

Huazhenxing kept the 15 million gold in Jindianxing's account and gave Locke 40% of the shares. Those were Jindianxing's shares, not Kelin Mining's shares.

Jindianxing is a subsidiary of Kelin Mining. It can be used as a sales channel in the future and can continue to accept pawned gold. It has signed relevant cooperation agreements with various financial institutions.

According to Huazhenxing's requirements, there are differences between the projects of Engineering 1 and Engineering 2. The second part of the project can accept other investors' participation, but the first part of the project can only be 100% controlled by "Feng Zibin". This requirement is unreasonable from a commercial perspective, but Feng Zibin insists on it.

The focus of the new alliance is not on fighting but on construction. At present, the entire Beiwan District has been captured, and further control will be handed over to the Machiavellian Wang Fengshou to finish the work. Huazhenxing made an appointment with Chief Engineer Lei Yunjin to discuss the project.

Huanxiang Industrial currently has three projects, one large, two small, and needs help from the Dongguo Aid Project Engineering Department. Small project one is to build two apartment buildings at the western end of Palm Estate. The second small project is to build a new neighborhood on the northwest edge of the Kelin District.

The residents in that area were cleared out, and all the buildings were razed to the ground by a blast. Huazhenxing wanted to plan it carefully and turn it into a model unit for the entire Kelin District.

The location of this place is very important. It is the throat area for other forces in Fiso Port to enter the Kelin District. It used to be very messy, but now it will be easier to bulldoze it. Huazhenxing plans to re-plan the roads here, build patrol barracks and daily training bases, as well as checkpoints for entering and exiting the Kelin District, plus a police station and supply and marketing cooperative branch.

The big project is to put up a barbed wire fence for the planned Beisuo River Basin, not only the 300 square kilometers of the outer boundary line, but also the 80,000 acres of farmland divided into nine areas. According to Hua Zhenxing's plan, all of them would be equipped with Y-shaped barbed wire. He had seen this kind of barbed wire at Meili International Airport, and many countries also use it as border barbed wire.

The main body of this kind of barbed wire mesh is a steel grille with columns, which is more than two and a half meters tall. The top bifurcation is Y-shaped when viewed from the side, and the center of the bifurcation is a spirally wound barbed wire ring.

There is a saying in the Eastern Kingdom called "adding railings to the Yellow River", which is used to satirize those unrealistic and whimsical people. Hua Zhenxing is lucky, he really plans to surround the entire Beisuo River with such a high-standard barbed wire fence.

After finishing lunch together, Li Xiaoyang sighed with contentment. He knew that Feng Zibin was actually Hua Zhenxing, but he really came here every day either to curry favor with the "big boss" or to make money.

Li Xiaoyang had never heard of Hua Zhenxing's dream, nor did he know that his dream was to create such a country of fantasy. But he absolutely supports Huanxiang Industrial's current plan. He never thought that someone would really do this, and there is absolutely hope that it can be done. He is full of energy now!

After the meal, a group of four people drove to the Dongguo Aid Project Engineering Department. Li Xiaoyang drove the car himself, with a bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat. Hua Zhenxing and Manman were in the back seat. Originally, Manman didn't have to come. She didn't know what she was going to do and couldn't understand Dongguo. However, Hua Zhenxing didn't tell her not to follow, so Manman got in the car naturally.

The Dongguo Aid Construction Project Department is located in the southeastern suburbs of Feso Port and on the north bank of the Feso River estuary. It was originally a deserted beach. The engineering department chose a higher-lying area to build dormitories and living areas. , surrounded by a thin blue iron plate, is a relatively independent area where about 1,500 workers live.

There are two main construction projects they have recently undertaken. The Feso River Bridge has just been completed. Now employees of Huanxiang Industrial use that bridge to go from the Kelin District to the headquarters Palm Manor. There is also a heavy oil power plant project that has just started laying the foundation stone. The current main project is to build a dedicated wharf for the factory area.

The heavy oil power plant project is also on the edge of Beiwan District, and happens to be adjacent to the newly purchased land by Huanxiang Industrial. The specific location is south of the planned mouth of the Beisuo River, adjacent to the international pier, where there was originally a beach full of rocks.

It’s the beginning of the month again, please give me a monthly pass! So that we can add railings to the Yellow River.
