I have opened a new book "The Pinnacle of Technology", everyone supports it! This time it is a science and technology article, I hope it can be appetizing for everyone. I implore everyone to collect and recommend!

***************

The so-called "Prince" from South America came very quickly. Xiao Feng asked Xiaolin to inform him that the man came to Bencheng the next day.

In the afternoon, Xiao Feng met the ‘Prince’ in his office.

The prince is of medium build, but he is very sturdy. It seems that the size of the prince is indeed different from the Chinese.

Looking at the face, it is not a Chinese face, and the skin is neither white nor yellow. Anyway, it looks like a mixed race, and it is a kind of mixed blood.

But the black hair and black eyes are right, and the facial features are not as profound as those of pure Europeans, and some Chinese ancestry can still be seen.

"Hello, this is Xiao Feng."

"Hello, hello, my name is Chen Yonglu, and my English name is Tony."

Xiao Feng didn't expect this man to speak so well in Mandarin. He was really taken aback. The man laughed when he saw him in surprise.

"I have been in China for several years!"

This kid is really clever, just by looking at Xiao Feng's expression, you can know what Xiao Feng is thinking, and Xiao Feng can't help but feel a little like this young man in his heart.

"Haha, okay, are you going to a university in China?"

"Yeah! I studied at XXX University."

"Oh, that's good. By the way, what would you like to drink? Tea, coffee, or..."

Xiao Feng showed the wine cabinet to the guy. The guy was quite knowledgeable and ordered a glass of gin.

"By the way, what did you do before?"

"Hi! Just do some import and export trade, contact the source of goods from the mainland, and then buy it back to my hometown."

"How can you tell me about your hometown? To be honest, it was the first time I heard of it when Xiaolin told me about it yesterday!"

"Haha, indeed, very few people in my hometown have heard of it. Okay, let me introduce you to Mr. Xiao."

Speaking of his hometown, Chen Yonglu opened the chattering box.

It turned out that this matter had to be talked about more than a hundred years ago. At the end of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Taiping Army all the way boarded a ship to the South American mainland in order to avoid the pursuit of the Qing army.

When boarding the ship, they signed a contract with others. Back then, they were called contract miners, but now they are selling piglets.

In this way, more than 10,000 Taiping troops and their families went to the South American continent. The area they arrived in, called Icak, was not a good place.

It faces the Pacific Ocean on the east and the desert on the west. It was originally a territory of Peru.

After arriving in the local area, these contract miners began to be squeezed. It was very hard to be squeezed at first, but these people who are rebellious in the country naturally do not want to continue to be squeezed in this way.

Before, I could fill my stomach, but later I couldn't even eat my stomach, so I naturally wanted to resist.

So there was the second uprising in the South American continent. It was a coincidence that it happened to catch up with the copper country, the war with Peru and Bolivia for the production of saltpetre.

So these miners launched an uprising and went to the mine site. The area where they were originally belonged to Peru, so Peru naturally sent troops to crusade.

As a result, the Peruvian native army was really weak in combat power. It was defeated several times by these experienced Taiping troops, and several generals were even killed.

At this time, when Tong Guo saw that this group was quite strong, he was moved with compassion, as if they were in an olive branch.

If they join the copper country and the war is over, the copper country will assign this mining area, as well as the deserts and overseas islands to which they belong, as autonomous regions.

So this group of people joined the Army of the Copper Nation, and together with the Copper Nation, they launched a war against Peru and Bolivia.

In fact, the Tongguo people didn't do anything good at first, and didn't equip them with too many bullets.

However, this group of Taiping Army's remnants relied on this war experience to build Taiping Island. They used a pennant as a flag and wore brown clothes. They literally defeated the Peruvian army and the Bolivian army many times.

Helped the Army of the Copper Kingdom to siege the city, defeated the Peruvian and Bolivian forces many times, and stood as the vanguard in this war.

General Pizzo, who commanded the war, admired them very much, not only provided them with more supplies, but also greatly enhanced their rewards.

This made this group of people fight more valiantly, and soon gained the prestige of the Browns.

In the end, with their help, the Tongguo people won the saltpetre war between the three countries and completely controlled the saltpetre mining area.

The Tongguo people have not forgotten their roots. They always remember the contributions of these Chinese in this war.

They kept their promise and divided the Taiping Army, the city of Iqak that they had taken, and all the surrounding mining areas, plus the foreign islands, to these Taiping Army remnants, making it the Isaac Autonomous Region.

And the leaders of these Taiping Army are also very sensible, let the people abide by the laws of the copper country, and want to marry the locals, and strive to integrate into the local society as soon as possible.

And they are also the most successful group of overseas Chinese. Now their Isaac area is still a very influential area of ​​the copper country.

The permanent resident population in this large area is 200,000 people with Chinese ancestry, plus hundreds of thousands of others who do not have Chinese ancestry but also have in-laws.

And this Chen Yonglu was one of the descendants of several Taiping army leaders.

After listening to Chen Yonglu's explanation, Xiao Feng finally understood why this guy was called "Prince".

Originally, he thought that this guy gave himself the name of "Prince", not a liar, just to attract attention to obtain the nickname.

Now it seems that there really is some reason.

He had heard stories about this before, but he always paid too much attention to it. He didn't expect to encounter such a Chinese descent today.

Xiao Feng was very happy, and chatted with Chen Yonglu for a long time, but most of the time, through him, he learned about the South American continent, the copper country, and the situation in the Ithaca area where he is located.

In the evening, he asked Xiaolin to take the ‘prince’ downstairs for a meal.

Although this ‘Prince’ has an unusual status, he is not so honorable that he should greet him personally, not to mention that he still can’t confirm that what this guy said is true or false.

After sending this Chen Yonglu away, Jesse knocked on the door and walked in.

Xiao Feng looked at her with a smile and asked, "How is it? Have you found out what you checked?"

"Of course boss, No, this is the information you want."

Jesse smiled and pushed Xiao Feng a piece of information, and Xiao Feng began to look through it. These pieces of information were what he asked Jesse to ask about Chen Yonglu and the situation in the Ithaca district that he said.

Although he intends to cooperate with this Chen Yonglu, he really needs to understand the situation of Chen Yonglu carefully. It is impossible for him to believe what he says.

Although Jesse has left Citigroup, she still has a very close relationship with this bank, so it is naturally more convenient to collect some information about the Ithaca area through this bank.

After all, Citi is in the copper country and has a lot of economic contacts.

According to the information from Citigroup, Chen Yonglu did not speak big words.

At least about the Taiping Army's foothold in South America and the establishment of the Ithaca area is correct, and there was indeed a family surnamed Chen among the main leaders of the Taiping Army at that time.

A lot of the information that Chen Yonglu said is accurate, but his description of the Ithaca District, in the Citi report, does not appear to be as good as he said.

In fact, for a period of time after the Saltpeter War, these descendants of the Taiping Army had a good life in Ithaca.

However, after the end of World War II in the last century, the countries of South America fell into a period of turbulence.

Later, the copper country experienced an important person on stage, and then a Japanese president came on stage. During the two reigns, they were not very friendly to the Ithaca area, which is more Chinese.

In addition, there have been several internal fights between themselves, and the community has gradually become divided.

And in the 1960s and 1970s, because of poverty, some of them even participated in the vigorous sales of white flour in South America.

They have very close relations with several major drug lords in South America. They even used their special autonomous region status and opened many banks because of the large number of islands.

As for what to open a bank, everyone naturally understands it.

Although it is not so pushy now, it seems that there are still many families who are still focusing on some obscure industries.

And this Chen Yonglu is indeed a child of one of the families, and he is also thinking about leading the family transformation.

After reading these materials, Xiao Feng basically understood that what Chen Yonglu had said to himself before was half true.

Their family, rooted in the South American continent, has been in business for more than a century. In terms of strength, it is certainly not bad.

But the only thing I dare not say is the family background.

Xiao Feng began to think about whether it was cost-effective to cooperate with them.

I thought about going to ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but didn't immediately make a decision.

At this time, it was getting late, and he decided to have a meal first, and then he would go to He Fangzhou to see it tomorrow.

He Xiaojun told himself before that he had done some research on the snake venom he gave him last time.

After coming back this time, I was busy attracting investment and joining, and also busy with the opening of the Sunshine Burn Hospital. I really didn't pay much attention to his laboratory.

Tomorrow happens to be free, so you can go and have a look.

In addition, after seeing the laboratory on his side, he had to go to the island to the south. Mr. Zhang and the others agreed to assign that island to the ninth laboratory, and he had to step on it himself.

In addition, Peter has also contacted himself through Katya several times, asking himself how the preparations are for seafood processing. After a while, he has to go to Russia to see it.

Next, naturally, I still need to go to Liu Jin to purchase a batch of weapons and ammunition, and then go to the other world to see, this time I have been back for so long, I don't know if there is any change there.
