However, Mainz does not want to fish so dry for the time being, and those companies in North America must invest a large part of their income in the reproduction process if they want to grow and grow, so that they can continue to grow and make more money!

It would not be friendly to their future development if they collected all the profits they had obtained at this time, and Mainz could not use so much money for the time being, and the main problem for the German army at present was to complete the clean-up he wanted, and only then began to secretly develop new weapons in preparation for the next war.

Mainz didn't need that much money until these new weapons were put into production and started on a large scale, not much from 70 million to a pound a year.

As for the extra money, in addition to investing in these potential companies and allowing them to expand their scale, Mainz also intends to completely complete the secret acquisition of Goldman Sachs.

Goldman Sachs Bank has a complicated background, the founder of Goldman Sachs Bank is Markus Goldman, a German immigrant who has a military background and has received military support, and part of Goldman Sachs' equity is in the hands of Prussian aristocrats, and this stake has already fallen into his hands when Mainz departs for North America.

As the most important part of operating North America, Goldman Sachs Bank, as Mainz's white glove in North America, must be firmly in its own hands, so the last time in North America, Mainz acquired a part of Goldman Sachs' shares, and at this time it had about 75% of Sheng's shares.

He intends to continue the acquisition of the remaining 25%, and now that he has enough funds, it is natural to accelerate the acquisition of all Goldman Sachs.

Mainz never underestimated his enemies, he knew that in a humble house in the capital where the sun never sets, the famous MI6 had been established, and the CIA would be established in North America in the future, and these hidden enemies would definitely investigate the source of funding for the German army.

In order to ensure the security of North American business networks and funding channels, Mainz needs to be careful to guard against these organizations, and also strengthen the control of the flow of funds to avoid exposure, for this reason, he deliberately turned over several funds, through Goldman Sachs and then through the hands of Swiss Bank, making it difficult to investigate the whereabouts of these funds.

However, the best way to deal with spies is to set up their own intelligence organization, which is what Mainz will be doing for the next period of time!

Thinking of this, Mainz called Himmler over.

"General, do you have something to do with me?"

Himmler stood respectfully in front of Mainz, Himmler, who was just 20 years old this year, was just a farmer's son two years ago, a civilian with no background, if he had not been promoted by Major General Mainz, most of Himmler at this time had been discharged from the army and farmed at home.

As early as 1918, Himmler's parents arranged for him to set up a small chicken farm at home, but fortunately Himmler did not go back at that time, but continued to wait in the army for six months, a wise decision that changed his fate, because he waited for his nobleman, Colonel Mainz!

Himmler knew very well where his current status and power came from, so he had always been loyal and dead to Major General Mainz, and he regarded Major General as the person he admired the most!

Because he can see that the Major General is a real hot country, and he wants to save this country!

"Himmler, I have a task for you, are you willing to accept it?"

Mainz stared at Himmler with burning eyes and asked word by word.

"Promise to complete the mission, you will be disappointed!"

Himmler did not ask what task Mainz had given him, but immediately replied in a loud voice, indicating his attitude.

Mainz smiled and nodded, Himmler's obedience made him very happy, soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, when they encounter orders from their superiors, they should not ask why, but immediately show their attitude, accept the task, and obey the arrangement!

If an army has its own position and cannot carry out the orders of its superiors, the consequences will be very terrible!

What's more, what Mainz put Himmler in control of is a more terrifying existence than the army!

"Very well, since this is the case, then the creation of the Gestapo will be left to you!"

Mainz then explained to Himmler his thoughts and requirements, as well as the responsibilities and powers of the Gestapo.

Himmler's eyes were full of excitement after hearing this, and he understood what this Gestapo did!

This is a secret police force that carries out espionage and surveillance missions internally and externally!

Of course, the Gestapo had much more power than the average policeman, and to some extent, they could even disobey the constitution of the Weimar Republic!

"Remember, the Gestapo is a double-edged sword, if it is well controlled, then it will be our sharpest spear, but if it is not controlled well, it can also turn around and hurt us, Himmler, your duty is very important, all members of the Gestapo, must be absolutely loyal to me, to the army, understand?"

Mainz said with a serious expression, and he put himself in front of the army.

Himmler didn't think there was anything wrong with Mainz's words, in his opinion, it was normal for Major General Mainz to line up in front of the army, without him, there would be no current German army!

"General, please rest assured, I will definitely complete the task, and I will definitely not disappoint the trust of the general!"

Himmler was very excited in his heart, such an important task was handed over to him by the major general, which shows that he is very trusted by the major general, and his status in his heart is very high, only absolute henchmen can gain such trust, which makes Himmler very happy, and he vows to work hard to complete the task assigned to him by the major general!

"Very good, since you have this confidence, then I can rest assured, when you create the Gestapo, I will give you a task: to monitor the unusual behavior of the Junker nobles in the country!"

......

By June 1920, Main's reform of the Navy had been largely completed.

Hit hard by the war, the navy lost almost all of its warships, and after the loss of warships, it was natural that there was no need to continue to maintain such a large scale, so at this opportunity, Mainz reduced the strength of the navy to 000 people.

And in response to the continuous change of commanders in the Navy in recent years, Mainz also made changes, he promoted a group of young naval officers, including Second Lieutenant Karl Dönitz, who piloted submarines during the war, was captured by the British after the war, and had just returned home.

Captain Gonther Lütjens, who served as the captain of a destroyer during the war and participated in the Battle of Jutland.

There is also Captain Raeder, but this man is 44 years old this year, and Mainz has little interest in him and does not use him too much.

Because the number of naval personnel was too small, Mainz did not appoint a naval commander, he himself concurrently served as the commander of the navy, and appointed Lütjans and Dönitz as deputy commanders, and rehired famous generals such as Hipper and Schell, and let them serve as strategic staff officers of the naval staff, responsible for studying and analyzing the development of foreign naval tactics and ship technology, and providing reference for the development of the navy in their own country.

These two people are in their fifties this year, and they will definitely not be able to catch up with the next world war, so Mainz has never thought of listening to their suggestions and opinions, after all, people in this era are still addicted to the era of giant ships and cannons and cannot extricate themselves, even if the war has proved that the so-called giant ships and cannons cannot bring victory at all, they still will not easily change their opinions.

In this case, there is naturally no need for Mainz to listen to their opinions, and inviting them back is just to take advantage of their old qualifications but lack of real power, deliberately let them confuse the people of the Entente countries, and make them misjudge the direction of development of the German navy. _
