Chapter 1246 Ideas Brought by International Friends
Now, apart from the Zeng family, the only people who can contact Zeng Wangcai directly are the three old men.
So Wu Yao, who was found by Little Perry, came to the courtyard after finishing his work and discussed with the three old men about calling Zeng Wangcai.
Zeng Wangcai answered the video call directly: "What's the matter, old man? We are celebrating the festival!"
"What about the barbecue? It's not even Laba yet, what festival are you celebrating?" Liu Yong projected the screen of his phone and put it down, and the four of them stood in front of the screen together.
"I'm talking about foreign festivals. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. You've worked hard these past few months. Take a good rest, eat some barbecue, and play some cards. Look at them..." The scene shifted and people playing cards came into view.
"That's right. You did such a big thing by yourself, so you should take a break." Liu Yong touched his chin and said with a smile, "Well, our negotiations with the Americans are getting smoother. Since you wiped out their navy, they have been so docile. They basically agreed to everything you said at the beginning, except for the land."
"Don't panic, the fight isn't over yet."
"I said, how long are you going to fight? Are you not coming back?"
"How can that be possible? Sister Mei is still relatively strong right now, and there are still many people supporting her. I wonder if the beating is not harsh enough. Let's continue after Christmas."
"Be careful and safe..."
This is the current situation. The harder Zeng Wangcai fights, the stronger his strength is, and the more frequently the Americans nod their heads. However, the final land is indeed a difficult point.
Zeng Wangcai also knew that getting a piece of land in the British country, or even just an island in the sea, would pose a very different threat to the Americans.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to get the media to step down and let the UK completely become a cat without claws. At that time, things will be much easier if Mason makes a statement.
But the problem is that there are now quite a lot of wealthy people supporting Sister Mei, and the eleven villages are also coaxing Sister Mei to continue fighting.
For Zeng Wangcai, everything in the village is easy. As long as Sister Mei is dead, they will leave immediately. If that doesn't work, I can also visit your house, right?
The trouble is the local wealthy people. They will do anything to protect their interests, especially when it comes to spending money. As the saying goes, money can buy the devil, so the people around Sister Mei are very strong, which led to such a long and hard time this time.
"Grandpa, can you please let me talk about business?" Wu Yao on the side was a little impatient. You agreed to call me, so why are you guys chatting and talking about family matters instead?
"Yes, yes, Wangcai, Xiao Wu has something serious to discuss with you. Let him talk."
"Brother Wu..."
"Wangcai, it's like this. Yesterday, a man named Perry called me and said that his family's business was affected by the war and could no longer continue."
"Wait a minute, Perry...are you from China?"
"To be precise, they are friendly people from the UK..."
Wu Yao spent more than ten minutes explaining the situation of the Perry family. Why did it take so long? Because he had to start from a very early time.
A simple introduction is that the Perry family is really a group of friendly foreigners to us, and they are the kind that have stood the test of time and circumstances.
"Oh, so what does it mean?" Zeng Wangcai asked after listening.
"The superiors' opinion is that it depends on whether it is convenient for you." Wu Yao replied, "After all, the Perry family chose us over the Russians, which played a very positive role in our economic development. It was a great help and an even greater role in leading the way. Moreover, old Perry himself was sanctioned by the Americans for more than ten years because of this. Not only did all business with the Americans stop, but he was also not allowed to enter American territory for more than ten years. It was not until the 1970s and 1980s that things got better."
“Their family paid a lot.”
"It's really big. Now that you're fighting in Britain, the local economy is almost ruined. Others can still do some business with their neighbors with the help of the authorities, but old Perry can't do business anymore."
Because of what happened back then, not only was Perry Sr. targeted by the Americans, but he was also targeted by many local businessmen.
It would be more accurate to say that the Perry family's business is not so much spread all over the world as it is done mostly with forces that are not pro-American.
Once sea transportation stopped, their business naturally could not be done, but other wealthy people could still do some business in other villages in Europe via fleets.
"Wangcai, what the leader means is that the overall situation is important." Wu Yao finally said, "If we can help, we will help. If we can't, we will make it up to him later and provide him with preferential policies and financial assistance to help his family's business get back on track."
"I see. I don't know much about their business now. Let me talk to their family. My superiors trust them, and I trust them too. Give me their phone number. By the way, where is their family now?"
"Okay, I'll call you right away. They are all in the countryside of Sheffield now."
"Oh, that's not too far. It won't take more than a day to drive there and back."
"Okay, you decide on your own. Let me know how you plan to proceed and what support you need from us."
"Okay, shave it!"
After hanging up the phone, Zeng Wangcai announced that dinner was ready.
"No more beatings, no more beatings, my sister-in-law is too cunning!" Xiao Bao stood up with a face full of paper notes and complained, "My dear, you are too bad. You are not cut out to be a landlord. When you were a peasant, you couldn't beat the landlord. When I became a landlord, couldn't you help me a little?"
"Look at what you said!" Yu Tie stood up and blew the paper everywhere. "You said you are the landlord, why should I help you?"
"Okay, stop talking and eat!"
“It’s time to eat…”
Xiao Bao quickly tore off the note and threw it into the fireplace, then picked up a few skewers and gave them to Zhang Xiuzhi first: "Sister-in-law, lamb skewers."
Zhang Xiuzhi will always be the core force in Zeng Wangcai's team.
While eating the skewers, Zeng Wangcai said, "One of you two will go on a business trip the day after tomorrow to Sheffield to pick someone up."
"Brother, I'll go!" Yu Tie raised his hand, "I'm fine!"
"Oh my god, I'm fine too!" Little Leopard was a step slower and raised his hands in annoyance.
In fact, it’s not that they have nothing to do, but that they have something to do every day.
When they first arrived, they took the brothers from the security team to do morning exercises in the manor, which included practicing military boxing and running exercises.
On the first day they were spotted by Zhang Xiuzhi. Zhang Xiuzhi remembered the Thirteen Guardians she had trained and felt that Xiaobao and the others needed training, so Coach Zhang took over.
"Go ahead, my friend. Xiaobao, learn from your sister-in-law."
"Brother, I..."
Xiaobao swallowed the second half of his words of objection and shut up.
After dinner, Zeng Wangcai took out his cell phone, took the number Wu Yao gave him and called: "Hello, Mr. Perry? Are you free the day after tomorrow? I'll send someone to pick you up..."
While eating, Zeng Wangcai had already thought of a good idea, which could not only help the Perry family, but also maybe deal with the wealthy helpers surrounding Sister Mei.
