Hardy Empire 1945

Chapter 415: Buy half of Johor

The latest website: This attack killed the Sultan of Johor.

Hardy tested the bottom line of Britain and the United States, and their attitude towards Malaya was basically to let it go.

In fact, it is normal to think about it.

A colony, and a colony that is clamoring for independence, has been removed from their list of patronage.

As for countries such as France and the Soviet Union, they simply ignored this matter. They all have their own affairs to be busy.

As for other countries, there is no comment. Many people don't know what Sudan is and who cares about him.

If it is a future generation, maybe there are still people who can try the United Nations.

Now,

The United Nations has just been established for a few years, and the basic framework and operating model are still being explored, basically without any rights.

But through this incident, Hardy has gained a lot of benefits.

One is to publicize its own force to the world. HD Defense Company, HD Mercenary, will go to a bigger stage from now on. Although HD Security is just a company, no one will dare to underestimate him in the future.

Hardy's status will naturally improve.

The second is to collect a large amount of assets. The assets of the Chinese in Malaya are far more than that of the indigenous people, and they will develop better in the future. They also took the opportunity to win over the feelings of the Chinese. I believe that more people will settle in Penang and Malacca.

People are the primary productive forces.

Now there are only hundreds of thousands of people, which is far from meeting Hadi's needs for development.

Since then,

I am afraid that Malacca, Penang, will become another important immigration place besides Hong Kong and Singapore, where Chinese immigrants live.

And the third benefit,

It is now in progress, and if this is done, the area of ​​Hadi's fief will be expanded by 4 times.

 …

Singapore.

On the second day after the Sultan of Johor was killed, someone came to Maha. As the fourth heir of Johor, Maha,

The eldest brother and two nephews are dead, and he is automatically eligible to inherit the Sultan's throne.

When Maha read the newspaper that day, his spirit was momentary, and then he was ecstatic.

For Ismail,

He didn't have any feelings at all. How could Maha have feelings for a big brother who needs to kneel down to meet him.

In fact, Ismail has no feelings for him. In Ismail's eyes, he is just a family parasite.

Those who come to Maha,

It was the middle-aged man who was looking for him back then,

smith.

Maha, we have fulfilled our original promise, now it's your turn to fulfill the promise. Smith said.

Now that Maha knew the power of these people, Sultan would kill them if he wanted to, and he didn't dare to disobey their opinions.

No problem, I am willing to fulfill my promise, but I don't know if other people are willing or not. You know, I didn't have any power of my own before. Even if I become a Sudan, I will be hindered by someone if I want to do something. I'm afraid it's hard to control The people below. Maha said.

Although he is an idle prince and has never been in contact with political struggles, he is not stupid. Johor is not the only sultan. There are many powerful ministers and families outside. Maha did not have any roots before. I am afraid that these people want to do the most. Just empty him.

Smith smiled.

Of course I have considered these situations, so I came to you. Don't worry, we will help you get the throne of Sultan. As for those who block your orders, we will help you deal with them.

Maha's heart trembled.

Is this to completely control your own rhythm?

Maybe if he becomes a Sudan in the future, he will also be a puppet of these people in front of him.

But now he has no choice but to rely on these people in front of him.

Okay, I'll follow your arrangements.

 …

a week later.

The Sultan of Johor held a funeral, and the family of the Sultan of Johor was buried at the same time, and the person in charge of it was Maha, the nominal first heir.

at the funeral,

Many of them wore white robes with machetes pinned to their waists.

The long procession carried more than a dozen coffins. The procession was very spectacular. The people who came to see them off were all Malays. As for the Chinese and Indians, no one was willing to participate in the funeral.

behind maha,

There are more than a dozen family men.

Including Maha's four younger brothers and seven nephews, these people also have the right to inherit the throne, but they are ranked behind Maha.

at the funeral,

Maha always felt that these brothers and nephews looked at him strangely.

he knows,

If you die,

Then they also have the opportunity to become kings. That throne has touched the hearts of many people. If it was before, Maha might have been killed. Before Maha was depressed, he did not cultivate any power of his own.

His younger brothers more or less have some property, or have good relations with some ministers' families, but Ta Maha is the biggest loner.

the funeral is over,

On the way back, many cars directly overtook Maha's car, and it was obvious that these people had no respect for him.

Even surpassing his car was intentional.

Just to give him a signal, we refuse to accept you, you are not qualified to sit on the throne.

Maha clenched his fists.

Although Johor belongs to Malaya, each state is relatively independent. It is also a British colony. The political system is very unique. It has its own king and government system, and at the same time it is under the control of the British.

The Sultan is the head of state of Johor,

There are ministers responsible for finance, law, culture, and education below, as well as their own judges, police, and prison system.

As for the army, there are officers in charge of the army.

these people,

They used to be Ismail's confidantes. This is normal. Whoever comes to power will use his confidantes. These ministers and military officers hold a lot of power in their hands, and can even affect the handover of the throne.

This time the incident happened suddenly, the Sultan was killed, and even the heirs were all dead. Now the number one pick is Maha.

Maha has no fundamental connections in Johor.

It is really a joke to make these ministers obey him. The strong ministers are weak and the weak ministers are strong. Not to mention here, even in Yangyang China, it is not uncommon. Whoever has the final say, it still depends on strength.

Maha also has his own house in Johor Bahru, so he returned home.

No one came to visit,

No one came to inform him when he would hold the succession ceremony to become the Sultan, as if people had forgotten him.

perhaps,

At this time, those people are frantically connecting together, thinking about how to kill him, and then game out a new sultan.

Maha was right.

Some people are indeed thinking and doing this, especially his younger brothers.

but,

Someone won't make them wish.

The Chief of Staff of the Johor Military and Police is now the highest head of the army in Johor. As soon as he got home from the funeral, he received a call from someone who wanted to talk to him.

He immediately thought of those who attacked the Sudan.

After the meeting, the other party put forward the conditions very simply, supporting Maha to come to power, he and his family can get certain benefits, otherwise the other party will take action.

As for the action the other party said, he can naturally guess what it is. The soldiers in his hands now only have more than 2,000 soldiers. Although he can dominate one side in Johor, compared with others, it is not enough to put a gap between his teeth.

Maha is the number one heir, and I am willing to support him. The military boss immediately stated his position.

at the same time,

The Minister of Finance, the Judge, and the Superintendent of Police have all been interviewed. They are considered figures in Johor State, but in the eyes of some people, they are just the more prominent ones among a group of local turtles.

 …

a few days later,

People came to Maha's house one after another to greet him and express their loyalty.

Maha knows,

It was definitely not his own charm that inspired these people to come here automatically. As for who did it, he knew very well in his heart.

a week later,

The state of Johor elected a new sultan, and Mahathir successfully became the sultan. A relatively grand ceremony was held. The new sultan sat in an open jeep and received the blessings of the people of Johor Bahru.

As for the original Sultan Ismail.

People have forgotten him.

human memory,

Sometimes it is three days.

After Maha came to power,

It didn't take long for a series of new appointments to be made, with new finance ministers, education ministers, and chief of staff.

These people are not Maha's people. Whose people are they? Naturally, it is self-evident. Hardy has already made preparations to suppress one group and activate another group. The change of dynasty will naturally be completed. These people are all Hadi. When Dee got on stage, they would surely listen to Hardy.

disobedient,

The end is definitely not just a simple loss of office.

Maha knows,

I was completely emptied.

But he has also gained a lot. Originally, he had no hope of being a sultan in this life, but now he can sit on the throne. He has already made a lot of money.

Another month passed.

Johor and the Dominion of Malacca, Penang, entered into a deal to sell half of Johor's land to Hadi.

According to the outside world, Johor needs to do a lot of things and needs a lot of money. The previous sultans exhausted their national strength and could only sell land.

Nine thousand square kilometers.

Priced at $30 million.

The site is connected to Malacca. Originally, Malacca was just a place on the waterway, but now it extends directly to the coast of the South China Sea, cutting across the entire peninsula.

The state of Johor has become surrounded by the states of Malacca and Singapore.

Johor Bahru, the capital of the king, is still owned by the Sultan of Johor. Even if he only owns this city, Maha is already very satisfied.

As for the $30 million,

Instead of paying cash directly, it is paid in various forms, including materials, infrastructure construction, roads, port and wharf construction, etc.

As for the rest, it will be paid in installments over 20 years.

As soon as the news was disclosed in the newspaper, countless people were shocked.

The Sultan of Johor sold half of his land,

Anyone would think a lot about this kind of operation, why the former sultan was killed, and why the current sultan sold the land to the Dominion of Malacca, Penang. Is there no dark deal in this?

Many people immediately sketched out a scene of stealing and looting.

HD mercenaries, if you save your employer, you save your employer. Why did you kill the original sultan at the same time? It must have been premeditated, and it must be for the land of Johor.

What is the difference between this and the Europeans who robbed colonies back then?

same same.

Sultans of Malaya,

I feel the same about this matter as Der Spiegel in my heart. From the very beginning, Hardy probably went for the land of Johor. This is a conspiracy.

In fact, the whole world knows that this is a conspiracy.

But now, no one cares about what Hardy is doing, no one cares at all.

The United States is happy to see it,

Britain pretended to be stupid.

The Governor of Singapore stated that this is a free transaction, and the sale of land is completely legal and complies with all procedures.

 …

Andy came to Penang from America.

One is to have a holiday and come to Penang to relax, and the other is to be invited by Hadi to come and see his achievements in Southeast Asia.

to Hardy,

Andy admired it from the bottom of his heart.

If the operation of the American industry is still a normal business plan, after obtaining the Dominion of Cayman, Andy's thinking can no longer keep up with Hardy's series of operations.

Cayman,

Become a financial offshore center.

An ordinary small island in the Caribbean Sea has shown its value far beyond itself, and Hardy has given it a new positioning.

Now it has become a paradise for the rich in the United States.

Andy can foresee that Cayman will create countless wealth, and it will be created continuously.

Through Cayman, it has also formed good cooperative relations with countless financial consortiums, which is definitely a huge political wealth.

American politics is controlled by corporations, and corporations are controlled by banks.

Even if all of Hardy's businesses in the United States fail now, with the Cayman Islands alone, Hardy will still become one of the richest people in the world.

Later, Hardy developed business here in the Far East. At the beginning, Andy didn't care much about it. It was Hong Kong at first. It is the most dangerous time for Hong Kong.

But relying on the danger, Hardy got a lot of money when others gave up. In the end, he succeeded and got ten times and a hundred times in return.

Then there is Japan.

When operating in Japan, Hadira joined the American consortium and controlled most of Japan's economy. Now Japan has become an economic puppet of the United States, and the United States can lie on the Japanese without any scruples to suck blood.

Keep sucking blood.

And in this,

Hardy is the leader. In addition to making money, it also allows him to establish a closer relationship with several other consortiums in the United States. With this relationship, it will be countless times easier for Hardy to do anything in the United States.

Even if you open a public toilet, you will make a lot of money.

How powerful is Hardy’s network now? Take the lottery industry as an example. The first place in the United States to unblock the lottery is Nevada, which is operated by the Hardy Group.

If you want to operate in other states, you need to go state by state. When opening in Cayman some time ago, Hardy found the consortium companies in those states, sat down with them to eat and chat, and talked about developing the lottery industry together. .

These bigwigs agreed immediately.

During this time,

There are already more than 30 states in the United States. Some congressmen have proposed to lift the lottery ban. With these families behind the operation, it is only a matter of time before the ban is lifted.

When the ban is lifted, the Hadi Group will definitely become one of the partners, because the Hadi Group has a wealth of lottery sales operations, and the probability of becoming an operating company will be very high. From this business, the Hadi Group will be able to earn a lot of money .

And Hardy,

In fact, it is just a matter of one sentence.

Use a relationship.

This is the strength of Hardy's network.

Now,

Hardy got two places, Penang and Malacca. Perhaps this place was a wild place before, but with Hardy's participation, it will definitely rise in the future.

Becoming a second Hong Kong is definitely not a problem.

Andy came for two days, and Hardy told him his plan. In fact, Hardy asked Andy to come, not only for relaxing travel, but also for him to plan for himself.

Malacca and Penang in the future,

Will focus on several directions,

It will become one of the eastern financial transit stations, establish a number of banks, reduce financial taxes, and develop it into one of the financial centers in Asia on the same level as Cayman.

As for enterprises, there are port transshipment, precision machining, electronic product processing, gemstone processing, tobacco enterprises, rubber industry, etc.

All of these can form a joint force with the Hardy Group.

Especially the recent incident in Johor in Hadi Lane, which can be described as very sensational, and Andy is also very concerned about it. At first Andy thought that Hadi was doing it for his own industry, but then he wondered if it was related to politics. Finally, he found out that it was all for Penang. The development of the city of Malacca.

killed a sultan,

Recruit Chinese to join Hardy Investment Company,

Hardy made hundreds of millions of dollars directly.

Such a business, I am afraid that countless capitalists will die with envy. What is it to kill a sultan, it is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Andy already felt that Hardy was very, very powerful, but yesterday he found that he still underestimated Hardy's calculations.

He actually bought half of the 9,000-square-kilometer land in Johor, including all urban assets and population on the ground.

This completely shocked Andy.

This transaction is equivalent to expanding the territory of Penang and Malacca by 4 times.

Andy applauded Hardy in his heart.

Andy was lying on a beach chair. In front of him was the blue beach of Penang. In the distance, some sails could be seen. A group of young Chinese girls walked by the beach in gauze tube skirts. One of the girls heard something. The smile is very carefree.

Laughter attracted Andy.

He looked at the girl, and at that moment, the girl looked over, and the two of them met each other's eyes.

At the same time froze for a few seconds,

The girl turned her head, continued to chat with her companions, and walked past Andy.

do not know why,

At the moment when the two looked at each other, Andy felt that the smile on the girl's face was so beautiful. At this moment, his heart, which had been severely hurt by love, felt throbbing again.

Andy's gaze unconsciously followed the girl's back.
