Australian Storm 1876

  Chapter 584 Brothers are united

  Evening

  Morgada Town **** Church

  The crowd gathered around the table, watching Mr. Wu Mozhou wave a splash of ink, and wrote the powerful and powerful "Humen Pass" three characters, and they shouted aloud.

  The character is round and magnificent, and the pen is thick. It can be said that it has brought together Wu Mozhou's calligraphy skills for decades, and it is not inferior to the handwriting of masters.

  Mr. Wu Mozhou put aside the brush in his hand, took a step back to appreciate the writing carefully, and nodded with satisfaction; “It’s a clumsy work, everyone laughed.”

  "Why the master seat is too modest, I think this handwriting is powerful and majestic, and the pen is old-fashioned. It is a rare masterpiece. It happens to complement the majestic and majestic relationship, and it will definitely bring celebrities to history!"

   "Hey... I'm showing my ugliness."

Even though Mr. Wu Mozhou said so, the complacency on his face could not be concealed. He slowly lowered his cuffs and said; "Fortunately, the hand feels very good today. I may not have such a good effect when I write a picture."

   "Master seat, there is an unsympathetic request for a humble post, I don't know if it should be said or not?"

"Oh..." Wu Mozhou turned his head and saw Gu Kaizhi holding his fists in his hands, so he said with a smile; "Brother Kaizhi, you and I have known each other for many years, and you are fortunate to work together. When it is a year-long friendship, why bother to be so polite? Just say it."

  Gu Kaizhi said sternly;

"Kaizhi has been thinking about it recently. The name Morgada has a strong Italian color. It has always been disliked. Now this place will become the location of the first line to shield the Italians from erosion. It is very inappropriate to continue to use this name. I thought it could be changed to "Humen Town"?

  Remember that back then, what was the spirit of Lin Zexu's ban on smoking in Humen?

  Using the name of this hero here, I only hope that the Chinese who have colonized overseas will not forget the sages, inherit the fierce character of Lin Zexu, be self-reliant and self-reliant, and work together to build this place into a beautiful paradise for overseas Chinese. "

  This statement comes out

  The room fell silent for a moment, and then there was a burst of warm applause...

"Okay, this proposal is really good. It makes people excited after hearing it. The colonization spirit of Chinese immigrants lacks a spirit of fearlessness of ghosts. Humen Town has a very good intention. I agree with this matter." Wu Mozhou Cheng Xing picked up the brush and wrote the two characters "Humen" in a swipe.

The two characters    are different from the previous ones. Appreciating the sharp sharpness of the pen carefully, there is a strong sharpness of the sword out of the sheath, which evokes a shout of applause.

  To change the name of a small town, the head of the African chief executive has the right to report it afterwards.

   Since then, the name Morgada has completely disappeared, replaced by the resounding and exciting name of Humen Town...

  The next morning

  Wu Mozhou and his entourage came to the pier, prepared to leave Humen Town (Morgada) on the cruiser "Nanisha", and went to the fortress of Grand Hanish Island to inspect the coastal defense construction and the town traffic construction in Somalia. This was also one of the main tasks of the trip.

At the pier, a large ocean-going freighter from Australia is unloading brand new fishing boats. These fishing boats are neatly parked at the pier. Most of them are small and medium-sized fishing boats of more than 100 tons to more than 200 tons, and the number is more than 30. Ship.

  In addition, the same ship also unloaded 12 mosquito patrol boats, all of which were "mosquito" type C patrol boats with a displacement of 260 tons per water.

This offshore patrol boat belongs to the reduced version. It has a self-sustaining power for three to four days at sea. It has a fully enclosed cockpit to cope with the wind and waves in the Red Sea. It is equipped with a Maxine heavy machine gun and has 11 crew members.

  Compared with the larger tonnage offshore patrol boat, this 280-ton "mosquito" type C patrol boat reduces the tonnage, weakens the firepower allocation, and reduces the sea self-sustaining power, and the price is of course cheaper.

  Compared to the Red Sea, where the wind and waves are small and the area is small, based on the principle of enough use, this reduced version of the patrol boat is a representative work of small size and great ability. It is inexpensive and can be widely equipped.

  This is also the smallest tonnage offshore patrol boat with a fully enclosed hull structure.

  As for the smaller tonnage "mosquito" patrol boat, it belongs to the category of inland rivers and can only play a role in inland rivers. The ship's side is lower, and the cockpit is not fully enclosed. It does not have the ability to fight wind and waves at sea. When a big wave comes, it sinks.

  Wu Mozhou stopped at the pier and looked at it for a while and asked with interest; “Sir Li, I’m afraid this is your handwriting again, right?”

  Li Yong hurriedly stepped forward and replied with a respectful expression;

  "Return to the headmaster;

These ships are indeed ordered, but of the 12 patrol boats, 6 of them were donated to the garrison. Heh heh... My own business left 6 ships running offshore, nearby Yemen and the Arabian Peninsula. The quantity of goods required is relatively small, and it is not cost-effective to dispatch a large ship.

In addition, these 32 fishing boats were ordered last year and are ready to be used in the newly established Humen Fishery Fishing Company. For this purpose, a set of equipment for a fishery processing plant was ordered to prepare canned seafood for sale in Xi’an-City. There is a great demand for this kind of storage-resistant food, and the market prospect is quite good. "

  " "Well, I won't comment on the patrol boat, but the idea of ​​developing fishery production is very good. How did you come up with this idea? "Wu Mozhou asked very interested.

"Return to Master General, when I was an officer of the Guards, I followed Master Earl to Moresby many times for inspections. It is a very good place for the development of the offshore fishing industry. Deep processing of seafood has provided thousands of jobs. This...I am very impressed next."

"Very good... this project is indeed very good. The Red Sea is a sea area with extremely rich fishery resources. The big fish in the sea can easily reach hundreds of catties. The establishment of fishing companies and processing plants not only solves the demand for seafood, but also increases employment. Opportunity, this is a good thing. I hope you don't let down the high expectations of Lord Earl and make some achievements."

   "Thank you for your good reputation, I will use this as a lesson next, and keep it in my heart." Li Yong said solemnly.

  Wu Mozhou nodded approvingly. Without saying anything, he led a group of officials on the cruiser "Naniwa" and waved goodbye to the crowd seeing off.

  The mighty battleship slowly left the pier, and drove away in the distance...

  Dockside

  Li Yong watched the battleship disappear into the distant sea, and fell into a long period of contemplation. The cool breeze on the beach moved his clothes and fluttered, and his figure looked very solemn.

  The people standing at the back looked at each other, no one dared to step forward and disturb Li Jueye's thinking.

  In a moment

Da Lao Hei couldn't help winking at Mo Zhenxiong, and whispered; "The devil is so startled, why stand here for a long time, what's so beautiful about this sea?"

   "Shut up and wait impatiently for you to go back alone."

  "Don't tell me, Lord Mo, can't it be done if I am wrong?"

   "Then shut your mouth."

"Oh!"

Since his victory over the Italian army, Li Yong's personal prestige has reached the culmination of incomprehensibility. In addition, he was awarded the title of "Honorary Knight", and was virtually plated with a noble gold body. Although he was a mercenary leader, he had already left. The vulgar taste has entered the elegant level.

  On the 600,000 square kilometers of land in Somalia, that is really scorpion shit... the only one! Call for strength to leverage.

  Perhaps hearing the discussion of the people behind him, Li Yong turned his head and took a majestic look, and said with a faint expression; "You don't follow here anymore, all go back, Zhenxiong stay and talk to me."

  "Follow Sir Sir Alex's instructions." Everyone responded in unison, and then quickly dispersed.

  Mo Zhenxiong walked to Li Yong silently, looked at the vast ocean in the distance, took a deep breath of the salty sea breeze, and asked; "Brother Yong, what are you thinking about?"

   "Zhenxiong, I'm thinking... We have made so much money and have been eating and drinking for several lifetimes. Should we use it in more meaningful places."

   "Uh...you mean..."

"Humen Town, Mr. Gu Kaizhi's words deeply shocked me. This is a heroic land that will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of China. I want to contribute a meager effort to the construction of this town. If it can be built We will be deeply proud of being a big city like Xi'an."

  "Brother Yong, I understand what you mean, but didn’t we donate more than £1,000?"

  "Hehehe...This is far from enough. I want to put all my net worth out to set up a company, build roads, build factories, build medical education, and attract more Chinese immigrants to live and work here and take part in the grand event."

   "My God...you won't? This is too exaggerated." Mo Zhenxiong's eyes widened in surprise.

  He knows that fixed assets are not included. Li Yong has earned hundreds of thousands of pounds over the years. It is enough to build ten small towns with so much money. What is the concept of investing all in Humen Town?

  Mo Zhenxiong's reaction was not beyond Li Yong's expectation, he smiled indifferently and did not answer.

  How much can a person spend on extravagance?

The most glamorous Arab woman is worth 200 pounds. It is enough to build an extremely luxurious manor for two to three thousand pounds. Li Yong's current wealth has surpassed the material enjoyment stage of ordinary people, and he has begun to pursue higher social status and social status. The upper management affirmed that they would work for the benefit of future generations.

  The headmaster faintly mentions something in his words, how can he not know?

  I think that the power of the master of the Red Fort is becoming more and more prosperous. One day it will be a matter of course to reach the top of the throne.

If you make a dazzling achievement at this time of revolution, I am afraid that a mere "honor knight" will not be able to pass it. Maybe you can earn a noble title for future generations, seal your wife and son, and spread it. Hundred generations.

  If people do not have ideals, what is the difference between them and salted fish?

"Zhenxiong, I have decided to set up a Humen development company and devote all efforts to the construction and build it into a beautiful coastal city. I will build a lighthouse here, expand the port and wharf, build a large storage area, and develop with all my strength. The marine fishing industry and the seafood processing industry have formed industries dominated by ocean transshipment trade, shipping and marine fishing, attracting more Chinese immigrants to settle down."

  Speaking of which

Li Yong turned his head to look at Mo Zhenxiong, and said earnestly; "Zhenxiong, you are an officer of the Guardsman, you are knowledgeable, capable, and ambitious. I hope you can work with me, if you can do it. With some results, the owner of the Red Fort will probably not be stingy with the title of a wife and a cute son."

   "Brother Yong, I listen to you." Mo Zhenxiong was really shocked, and after only a few thoughts, he agreed. This kind of temptation is something normal people can't resist.

   "Hahaha... good brothers work together, and there is nothing that can't be done." Li Yong laughed, and the two powerful hands clasped tightly together.
