Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

After careful consideration, Fang Lang still rejected Lieutenant Sirio Leitch's proposal to go to Rio de Janeiro to investigate in person.

Although Lieutenant Sirio Rechi now works at his own naval base, his actual job is still the head of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, Natal Distribution.

As the head of a local intelligence department, he left his job and went to the capital to investigate the situation of the former Army Minister. Once someone found out, things would be very serious.

Fang Lang stood up and patted Lieutenant Sirio Leitch on the shoulder. Fang Lang smiled and said:

"You don't need to go there yourself, I have many friends in the capital.

We don’t need to investigate. For those of us who don’t know the situation, this information may be intelligence, but for some people, it is just gossip after dinner.

I came to see you because I noticed in this report that your people mentioned that they were going to start targeting the guards around Mr. Colonel. Have they started to implement it?"

"Sir, this plan has already been implemented.

As far as we know, these guards are more like servants than guards. They have completely lost their sense of honor as soldiers.

I think we will get something soon."

"Very good, these people around us will definitely be able to provide us with more accurate information. Although we now have some guesses about the situation, we must not relax our vigilance.

To be able to become a colonel officer, it is definitely not enough just to be the son-in-law of the Minister of War. Maybe he has some special talents!"

"Yes, sir, I understand.

Please rest assured that our people will quickly infiltrate Mr. Colonel’s entourage and ensure that none of Mr. Colonel’s actions can escape your eyes.”

Fang Lang nodded with great satisfaction. Intelligence work cannot be overemphasized. With fast and accurate intelligence support, Fang Lang will not be blind when doing anything or making any decision.

After Lieutenant Sirio Leitch left, Fang Lang directly called Major Blackwell's office.

"Haha...Fang, I know you will definitely call me.

You don’t need to tell me, I know you want to ask me about your new colleagues, right?”

As soon as he heard Blackwell's laughter, Fang Lang knew that he had made the right call.

"Okay! It seems that I don't need to ask, brother, you have already found out some information for me, right?"

"Of course, Fang, we are good brothers, your affairs are my affairs, of course I have to help you take care of it!

If you don’t call me today, I will call you.”

"It seems that brother's harvest is not small!

Tell me quickly, what have you found out for me?"

"Brother, I definitely don't need to tell you some explicit information. I will only tell you one thing today.

You must remember not to spread this matter, otherwise it will be a scandal for our Brazilian army."

Blackwell's words stunned Fang Lang. His new colleague was also involved in the scandal of the Brazilian army?

What is going on?

"Brother, you know very well what I am like.

I just want to know some information about some new colleagues and their parents’ status. I’m not very interested in scandals, so I don’t think you need to tell me such things.”

Fang Lang didn't dare to be interested in the scandals in the Brazilian army. After all, some things could be understood in depth, but some things were better known as little as possible.

After all, curiosity will kill the cat. Don’t be too curious about everything, especially things that are related to the reputation of the entire army. It’s better to know less.

As the head of the counterintelligence department of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, Blackwell still has great power, and it is normal for him to know some secret information in the army.

However, as the military commander of the main force of the navy, there are some things that are not necessarily suitable for me to know.

"Haha...Fang, I just like your character.

This scandal happens to be related to your new colleague. The news I got is that your new colleague sold a batch of weapons and equipment brought back from Europe.

I used the money to buy a property in Rio de Janeiro, but I don’t know who reported it to the Ministry of War.

The military bosses notified his father-in-law directly, which caused his father-in-law to lose face and be very embarrassed.

However, in the end, the matter was suppressed.

But he couldn’t survive in the Army. Just when you were about to form the Marine Corps, his father-in-law put his old face on him and approached Mr. President.”

Good guy, you are quite courageous. You dare to sell arms brought back from Europe.

So it seems that what General Crook was worried about, that this is the Army's behavior of mixing sand into the Navy, does this not hold true?

After thinking for a while, Fang Lang denied it again.

Only people within the Brazilian Army Ministry knew about this matter, not outsiders.

Could it be that no one in the Army Department is willing to take the initiative to come to the Navy, and Colonel Waldo Granma happens to have such a serious problem, and the chiefs of the Army Department are selling the face of the former Army Minister?

Someone came along and solved this candidate to enter the navy!

Think about this colonel’s background as the son-in-law of the former Minister of War, who has been serving in the Army. He naturally possesses Army attributes, and no one in the Navy can really accept him no matter what.

So, this is the perfect sand for just the right moment.

However, this Mr. Colonel is also very courageous! He actually has the idea of ​​making munitions.

"Selling arms? Is it just this time, or has it always been like this!

Isn’t this a long-term and stable arms business?

If this is the case, there is no reason for him to be the only one involved!

Could it be that the former Minister of War is the main culprit and this guy is just a handler?"

Fang Lang blurted out involuntarily and expressed his doubts.

This situation is not impossible!

After all, you make money! It’s not shabby.

According to what Fang Lang learned, Colonel Waldo Gramma had a very ordinary family background and was born in an ordinary farmer's family in Amazonas state.

After joining the army, I had the opportunity to leave the countryside and come into contact with the colorful world outside.

As for this guy's appearance, it is indeed very in line with the aesthetics of the Western world in this era, which is what we often say that people are handsome.

Even though he is middle-aged now, he is still handsome.

Fang Lang has never met his wife, so she doesn't know what she looks like, but she is probably conquered by this guy's handsomeness.

Otherwise, the daughter of the dignified Minister of War would definitely look down on a soldier from the countryside!

"Brother! Your mind is spinning really fast, but you must have thought wrong this time.

The original equipment of our army was not good, and could even be said to be backward. We have counted the batch of arms purchased from Germany before the war, and there was no shortage.

What's more important is that our Army Minister's family has a huge coffee plantation, and also has a lot of land in Rio de Janeiro.

He probably wouldn’t be involved in the business of reselling arms.

According to the information I received from the Ministry of War, this is probably the first time Colonel Waldo Gramma has engaged in this business, and he was easily found out by the Ministry of War."

Hearing that Blackwell overturned his inference, Fang Lang shrugged indifferently. After all, this was just an idea that suddenly popped into his head, and he didn't expect to find the truth directly.

"It would be interesting if this guy really did this business for the first time. What made him take such a big risk?

Is he short of money?

As an army colonel, he should not be short of money!

Even if we are short of money, why are we not short of money before but now we are short of money?"

"Haha...Fang, do you want to be a detective?

Let me tell you this! We don’t know why he did this deal, and we don’t want to know.

We just need to know that he really did this business and the evidence was found.

This matter was not investigated by our Intelligence Bureau, but was investigated by the Army Department after receiving the complaint letter.

And it’s already knotted, so we can’t touch it again, do you understand what I mean?”

Of course Fang Lang understands what Blackwell means. If others have already closed the case, you can take it and investigate it in depth.

The most important thing is that the person involved in this case is still the son-in-law of the Secretary of the Army, even though the Secretary of the Army has already pushed it down.

But the person involved is also a colonel, so some things should be done in moderation.

Otherwise, you just don’t understand the rules of officialdom.

"I understand, I just want to discuss it with you.

Because these are all doubtful points!

But you are right, the War Department has already closed down, so we shouldn’t delve too deeply into it.

Your news has been of great help to me.

I didn’t say anything, I’m going to Rio de Janeiro in the next two days, and we’ll meet up and have a good time together.

Last time we found a great place for a party."

"Then it's settled, what I'm waiting for is your words.

I heard Tiqi tell me, but unfortunately, our wallets are not thick enough, so we are just waiting for you, the big boss, to come over and show me around!"

Of course Fang Lang understood what Blackwell was talking about.

This couldn't help but remind him of the mansion he arranged for Radia Redondo to buy. He didn't know how it was being cleaned up now.

If the cleaning is completed, I can just play with everyone in my navy club, which is much safer than outside.

It seems that this time I have to go to Rio de Janeiro to see it.

Of course, Fang Lang would not refuse Blackwell's request. This friend was still very helpful to him.

Fang Lang must maintain this relationship.

Therefore, I readily agreed to the other party’s request.

Then the two of them started bragging about everything, and it took half an hour before they hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. He felt that there must be a reason why Colonel Waldo Gramma sold this batch of arms.

Just like what he and Blackwell said, why did Mr. Colonel, who was not short of money before, start to be short of money now?

What is the reason for lack of money?

Why should the money from selling arms be used to buy another property?

Was the house we originally lived in not good?

Since the old Secretary of War did not know about his behavior, then the reason for his lack of money must have nothing to do with his family.

Or is there any other reason?

Fang Lang lit a cigar, leaned on his office chair, and looked at the sea view outside the window, falling into deep thought.

Slowly, thoughts appeared in his mind one by one, and then he dismissed them one by one.

Finally, Fang Lang thought of the most likely explanation, and he no longer hesitated.

I found General Clark of the advisory group, and after being introduced by General Clark, I met Lieutenant General Mark, who was responsible for commanding the Brazilian Expeditionary Force.

After many twists and turns, I found the US military liaison officer who was in the expeditionary force and responsible for connecting with Colonel Waldo Gramma.

The information provided by this US military liaison officer to Fang Lang confirmed his suspicion.

A fox-like smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
