Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Chapter 85 Goodbye Father-in-law

For a discussion that lasted for more than six hours, both parties were very satisfied. And both parties gained additional gains.

Due to the late time, Fang Lang and the two did not rush back to Genoa overnight, but spent the night in Piacenza. Early the next morning, they drove all the way back to Genoa.

There was nothing to say all the way. After Fang Lang returned to Genoa and arranged the army's work, he went directly to Global Trading's office in Genoa.

Although work has always been communicated through telegraphs, Fang Lang now wants the steel plants and shipyards in Genoa to support the new steel plants and shipyards in Brazil.

Therefore, Fang Lang must personally understand his steel plant and shipyard in Genoa.

It happened that his father-in-law was also in Genoa, so it would be inappropriate for Fang Lang not to meet him.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and after Coburn personally poured a cup of coffee for Fang Lang, he couldn't wait to speak;

"Boss, you are finally back. If you don't come back, I will go find you."

Fang Lang was stunned, what happened to Lilith? That's not right! He hasn't hit a home run yet!

"What's wrong?"

"Following your instructions, the company has been purchasing transport ships from the US military. However, now that the war is over and the shipping routes are safe, everyone has begun to rush to buy transport ships, causing the price of transport ships to skyrocket.

As a result, the ship purchase plan you set for us was not completed on time. I am really sorry. I don’t know if we will also increase the purchase price.”

Coburn said cautiously with a hint of apology.

When he heard that the plan had not been completed and he was afraid of blaming himself, Fang Lang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. This was no big deal, just rent it if you can't buy it! Anyway, these ships have only been glorious for a few years, so it is more convenient to buy less and sell them.<

/p>

He smiled nonchalantly and said:

"I thought something happened to Lilith! What does this little thing have to do with how many ships we have now!"

Mr. Coburn was immediately embarrassed by Fang Lang's words. He was obviously a little embarrassed about discussing his daughter and him with his boss.

I can only say with a weird expression:

"Lilith and Vivian are both very good, but they miss you a little. If you don't have time to go to Naples, I can ask them to come over."

I didn't expect that Mr. Coburn would answer like this. Didn't he make it clear that he had no objection to directly taking the sister's flower? This is so happy! My father-in-law doesn't object, so what else is there to say.

Fang Lang's expression began to make him want to laugh uncontrollably, laugh at it, laugh at it, then laugh at it.

"Is it really possible? That's great. I miss them so much, but I really don't have time to go to Naples now."

Mr. Coburn was so filled with hatred for Fang Lang's answer that he wished he could pour the coffee in front of him directly from Fang Lang's head.

Can you be more shameless? You can't call him a scumbag anymore! He is simply a beast, but you can't change it. How can you say that the three women in the family have already reached an agreement? We can only change the topic directly:

"Now we have a total of fifty-six cargo ships, and they are all heading to the United States and Brazil. However, the war has just ended. Therefore, the supplies have not arrived so quickly. The earliest supplies are expected to arrive in the port in four days."

p>

Seeing that his father-in-law's face turned a little dark, Fang Lang calmed down his mood decisively and started working seriously, otherwise he would be tempted to beat himself up.

"Since everyone is competing for cargo ships, let's not participate anymore. The route has been restored to safety, so let's directly outsource our transportation tasks to transportation companies.

Global Trading Company is a trading company. We need to operate separately from Global Transportation and have independent accounting. Hasn’t the United States arranged for someone to come over and take over the transportation company?"

When it comes to company matters, Mr. Coburn is still very serious.

"I have taken over. I am handing over the work with Universal Steel and Universal Shipbuilding these days. If you are still a few days late, I should return to Naples."

Obviously, several new companies established while studying in the United States have already started operating as planned. Then the plan to establish steel plants and shipyards in Brazil can begin.

"Oh! Let's meet with them tonight. Some work needs to be arranged for them. When can the two factories resume production?"

When talking about the factory's resumption of production, Mr. Coburn couldn't help but feel lucky.

"This may depend on the integration situation! Fortunately, we directly acquired Genoa when it was just recaptured. As soon as the Germans surrendered, someone came over to inspect the factory. Fortunately, we identified ourselves as a branch of an American company in Italy.

p>

It was not inspected. Another shipyard was directly inspected by the occupying forces because it was an Italian company and had built warships for the Italian Navy.

Recently, we have recruited a lot of talents from their factory employees. Alas! It seems that although the war is over, it may take a long time to restore normal life order!"

Unexpectedly, there is a shipyard nearby that has built warships for the Italian Navy. Isn’t this exactly what I need? Don’t feel that the Italian army’s combat effectiveness is not good, just think that the Italian equipment is not good either.

No matter what others say, it is a world power, and its equipment manufacturing capabilities are quite good. Just think of some high-end car brands such as Ferrari.

"You said this shipyard has manufactured warships for the Italian Navy? Have we recruited their company's designers?"

Talking about the current situation of Italian workers, Mr. Coburn couldn't help but feel a sigh of relief. If it weren't for Lilith getting to know Fang Lang, his family might be struggling for food and clothing now!

Thinking of this, the resentment towards Fang Lang, the son-in-law, was much lessened. After all, he was the benefactor who saved their family from suffering!

"Definitely! Prices in Italy are skyrocketing and supplies are in short supply. Due to the war, everyone has basically manufactured military equipment for the army. Therefore, many factories have been inspected, liquidated, or suspended.

All the original workers have lost their jobs. Only companies like ours with American-funded background can still operate normally. Only by recruiting some workers can we prevent everyone from going hungry.

However, the shortage of various raw materials is severe. For example, steel plants have stopped operations because there is no iron ore.”

Isn’t it a joke that the production has stopped because of raw materials? Brazil is now the raw material supplier of the United States! What kind of raw materials are not available?

Isn't this just a thirsty person meeting a water seller? Fang Lang said indifferently:

"Brazil has one of the largest iron ore reserves in the world. You ask the Brazilian branch of Global Trading to purchase iron ore directly from Brazil's Vale and get the factory started as soon as possible.

Soon, the United States will pass an aid plan to Europe. The demand for infrastructure materials such as steel and cement will boom, and we must seize the opportunity to develop rapidly."

"Aid plan for Europe?"

Fang Lang immediately realized that he had almost revealed the history in his utterance, and quickly changed the topic:

"Yes, but time does not move so fast. Living supplies such as grain and oil should be the most valuable in Italy now. We must make good use of our status as a multinational company.

Keep telegraphs open and circulate scarce supplies between countries at any time. By the way, has the demand for cigarettes and the like slowed down now?"

Fang Lang is still very concerned about his main business. With the end of the war, the mental pressure of the soldiers is no longer as great as it was during the war, although the demand for cigarettes still exists.

However, no one will continue to pay high prices to purchase cigarettes. Therefore, when the war was about to end, Fang Lang directly informed Global Trading to start reducing the purchase of cigarettes.

Change the business direction and start selling necessities for people's lives, such as grains, oils, spices, coffee, etc.

"Sales of cigarettes have dropped significantly, but the Lucky Cigarettes recently shipped from Brazil have a rich and distinctive flavor. Although there is no way to maintain the original high price.

However, the Gambino family still hopes that this channel will not stop. But I guess that after the government officially returns to normal, we may have to obtain a tobacco and alcohol monopoly license."

After all, Mr. Coburn was born in a formal business, so he still has some scruples about cooperating with the Gambino family. Perhaps the Mussolini government's crackdown on the Mafia left him with lingering fears.

He was afraid that when his import and export trade would be classified as tobacco smuggling by the government, he would be in trouble. Only by obtaining government authorization could he feel at ease.

Fang Lang, on the other hand, doesn't care. At worst, he will let his uncle's New Water Gang cooperate directly with the Gambino family. As long as the cigarettes from his factory can be sold and make money, I don't care how to sell them.

Therefore, Fang Lang said casually:

"Well! You can think of these things yourself."
