Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

When leaving, Brigadier General Jackson did not stay with Fang Lang, but was stayed by Lieutenant General Chambers.

"Jackson, the person you recommended is very good. I am very satisfied. I will recommend him to General Marshall!"

Brigadier General Jackson was also very satisfied. The candidate he recommended was favored by Lieutenant General Chambers, and he said modestly:

"They are all serving His Majesty the General's plan!"

Chambers was very satisfied with Brigadier General Jackson's performance and rarely asked him for his opinion.

"What kind of destroyers do you think we should provide to Brazil?"

There is actually no conclusion yet on what destroyers to provide to Brazil. At this time, the most advanced destroyers in the United States must be the Keeling class. It is definitely impossible to provide such destroyers to Brazil, which are not many in the U.S. Navy.

,After all, Brazil is not that important.

The main warship currently equipped by the U.S. Navy is the Allen Sumner-class destroyer. There are about seventy ships in total. It is an enlarged model of the Fletcher-class destroyer. It was also the best destroyer in World War II until 1975.

They began to gradually retire from the U.S. Navy in 2000. Many of them were resold to third world countries after being decommissioned, and it was not until the 1990s that they completely withdrew from the stage of history.

Of course, the largest number is the Fletcher-class destroyer, with more than 170 ships, and it is the absolute main force fighting Japan in the South Pacific battlefield. It was almost in the 1970s that it began to be gradually decommissioned.

"If it is to be provided to Brazil, my suggestion is that the Fletcher class is enough. After all, this is also our largest destroyer. If it is provided with a more advanced destroyer, it is obviously not in the interest of the United States. If it is too backward, it will hurt Brazil.

Human feelings."

After all, Commodore Jackson is an American general. It is impossible for him to be willing to provide the most advanced American warships to Brazil, not even a British ally.

"Since we have the same idea, I will send a telegram to the country and apply for the transfer of a Fletcher class to the Brazilians. Now that the Brazilians have a new destroyer, they must join our escort operations on the Atlantic route

Zhonglai. I hope our young captain friend can let us see his ability. Otherwise, we will not be able to find a better reason to continue supporting him later."

Lieutenant General Chambers took a deep breath on his cigar and said.

At this time, Fang Lang, who returned to the Gilas, was calling his crew members one by one, having a private conversation, asking if they were willing to serve on the destroyer. After all, the destroyer was going to the front line, and he had to choose those who were willing.

Only the crew who fights with him will do.

Although he only served as the captain of the Gilas for two months, his work ability and the allowances he provided to the crew made many crew members become his loyal fans.

After an in-depth conversation, twenty crew members of the Gilas were willing to follow Fang Lang to serve on the destroyer, including First Officer de la Torre and Chief Engineer Amar Reina.

Obviously, twenty crew members are just a drop in the bucket for a destroyer that needs more than 350 people. In the next few days, Fang Lang was busy interviewing various people every day, including, provided by de la Torre.

The fifteen people on his list, as well as the personnel provided by Colonel Parisi.

There are even people led by Lieutenant Colonel Graham. Unfortunately, Lieutenant Colonel Graham does not know that he is an out-and-out bastard in Fang Lang's mind now, and Fang Lang will not let his men sneak in again.

.

In the end, Fang Lang added the two young boys he brought back from Sao Paulo into his team through Colonel Parisi.

Just when Fang Lang was building a destroyer team for himself, in a cigarette factory far away in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Yang Zong and others finally produced several unique flavors of cigarettes based on the ideas provided by Fang Lang.

"Everyone should try these cigarettes. Which one do you think is the best?"

In front of Yang Zong were five flavors of cigarettes, all made according to the new production process and adding different spices.

Several factory technicians were greatly surprised after trying it. They did not expect that the cigarettes after such treatment would have such changes.

"I didn't expect that this kind of cigarette can actually produce a sweet taste. It's amazing!"

"I don't like the sweet one, I like this one, it's mellow enough and has a long aftertaste."

"But I like this kind of fresh fragrance! It has a floral smell, it smells so good!"

"This kind of rose smells better! I will only smoke this kind from now on!"

"Don't you like this mint flavor? I dare say it will be a hit!"

Everyone discussed the different feelings of several different flavors of cigarettes. Almost all of them received positive reviews, which made Yang Zong very excited. He directly announced that the cigarette test was successful and began to readjust the production line and formulate a new production process.

According to the guidelines left by Fang Lang, the Good Luck cigarette brand was created. New packaging was made for each flavor of cigarettes and production was started.

The acquired newspaper has also begun to follow Fang Lang's guidance to re-layout and rename it "Brazil Times" for distribution throughout Brazil. In the early stage, it was distributed free of charge to governments, major schools, hospitals, banks and other places.
Following Fang Lang's guidance, the Brazilian Times often uses sensational headlines to attract customers, and the actual content is no longer boring. It is very different from today's newspapers. Therefore, it quickly established a foothold in Brazil and just waited for Fang Lang to start from

As soon as the new printing presses purchased by the United States arrive, they can quickly occupy Brazil's public opinion position.

Although the Brazilian Times uses headlines to attract customers, it never carries any political leanings. News events are often told in the form of storytelling, which greatly surprised the Propaganda Department, which had just abolished censorship of books and newspapers, and began to focus on

Pay attention to the development of Brazil Times.

Fang Lang, who is far away in Italy, has finally built his team after about a week of repeated screening. Some special positions, such as radar, sonar and other military units with higher professional skills requirements, will be organized to go to the United States with Fang Lang to receive a one-term training.

One month of professional skills training.

A group of twenty people took a U.S. military transport plane and arrived on the east coast of the United States. Fang Lang and the new deputy captain de la Torre were sent to the West Point Military Academy in New York, USA, for a month of pre-job training.

Other crew members were also sent to different locations to participate in corresponding job training. Those who participated in the training in the United States were mainly new technical units such as radar, sonar, fire control, and engines. Others followed the U.S. Navy in Italy.

Studying on a destroyer.

After arriving in New York, the United States, a special car from the U.S. Department of the Navy was taken to a temporary training class at West Point Military Academy. Since it was only a short-term training, there were no arrangements to live on campus. Fortunately, Fang Lang had already informed Wan Chongxin before departure that he would be at West Point.

A small apartment was rented nearby for the two of them.

Because the long journey lasted more than thirty hours, it was midnight when they arrived in the United States, so the two of them packed their luggage and fell asleep directly.

Early the next morning, while Fang Lang was still sleeping soundly, Wan Chongxin had already knocked on Fang Lang's door.

"Boss, good morning! I brought you Chinatown's special breakfast. I wonder if you have ever eaten it!" After Wan Chongxin entered the room, he casually placed the oil paper bag he brought on the table and put the contents inside.

Take out everything.

"I'm talking about Ashin! Are you always so early every day?" Fang Lang glanced at the sun that had just risen outside the window and said with some surprise.

"That's definitely not the case. It's just that I haven't seen the boss for so long and I have a lot of things to report to you. I'm also afraid that you will have to go to class soon, so I can only come and disturb you before you go to class."

After speaking, he pushed a breakfast in front of Fang Lang and said.

"This is preserved egg and lean meat porridge and fried dough sticks. Do you want to try it?"

"Okay! I haven't eaten these things for a long time. Let's talk while eating!" Fang Lang looked at the breakfast in front of him without being polite. He also looked at de la Torre who heard the sound and walked out of another room.

Tao:

"Lao De, this is my friend Ashin. Here is the breakfast he brought. Come over and try it together."

After the two nodded to each other, de la Torre sat directly next to Fang Lang, looked at the porridge that Fang Lang pushed in front of him, and ate it without ceremony.

He made tut-tsk sounds from time to time, obviously very satisfied with this breakfast.
