He's in the west, he's a cowboy

Arthur and the others knew that Zhou Zheng was going to talk to William about business, so they didn't encourage him to come with them. They waved to him, and the four of them left arm in arm.

Although William’s family also has a lot of good wine, when it comes to drinking, it’s definitely better to go to a pub.

And I have to go to a cheap tavern, not a luxurious one. Because only cheap pubs can have that lively atmosphere.

Low-quality drinks, exciting casinos, dancers with their shirts pulled open and drunks who get into fights after drinking too much, this is where American tough guys should go.

Even though Zhou Zheng has been here for so long, he is still a little unaccustomed to it. He drinks very restrainedly and doesn't play cards. He only plays cards with his own friends when he has a party with his brothers, but he still loses a lot.

Those dancers who look like dinosaurs are even more uninteresting. Doesn’t her own wife look good?

As for the fight? Who can beat him...

Zhou Zheng watched the four people leave, and then led the housekeeper to William's study.

As soon as he entered the door, before William came, Zhou Zheng went straight to William's bookcase. He knew that cigars and fine wine were often kept here.

Sure enough, there was a box of fine Cuban cigars and a bottle of French wine. The butler spontaneously brought an ashtray and a wine glass, and helped Zhou Zheng put the cigars away.

Zhou Zheng was sitting happily on the sofa, smoking a cigar and drinking wine, looking as happy as a god.

"If you don't come back, I'm going to be annoyed to death by those women." William walked in slowly. Seeing Zhou Zheng's leisurely look, he sat down next to Zhou Zheng, picked up a cigar and made some for himself. branch.

Zhou Zheng poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile: "What's wrong, Isabella caused you trouble again?"

"That's not true." William said helplessly: "You know? Ever since his mother passed away, there have never been so many women in the family. It has made me feel uncomfortable these days."

"Haha." Zhou Zheng couldn't help laughing.

"How's it going? I heard you solved the Ryan brothers' matter?" William asked curiously.

"Of course, I have successfully solved it, and I have brought back the people and drawings." Zhou Zheng said with some pride: "If everything goes well, we will be able to have our own factory in the future."

"Very good." William nodded: "Although the pastures are good, the times have changed. The future is the industrial era. If we want to maintain our prosperity, we can only rely on these pastures and your small businesses. Business is not going to work.”

"Yes, this is a good opportunity." Zhou Zheng put down his glass and said ambitiously: "But we can't put all our hopes on the Lane brothers. We must find some more powerful engineers. And to be honest, the big companies in the east are not What we can compete with, Henry Ford’s designs are not something we can just do, we have to make these drawings our own.”

"Very good, you are sober, as always." William couldn't stop the look of approval on his face: "We don't necessarily have to make that four-wheeled private car. We can find a few people to study and make our own things. No one can say anything like this."

"Well, I already have some ideas, but I still need more engineers and technicians." Zhou Zheng looked at William and said, "I can't find these people. I have to rely on you to find a solution."

"It's very simple." William said with a smile: "We don't need those old masters and so-called skilled workers. Those people's brains are like stuffed with cotton and they can't move. We just need to find a few people. Post some recruitment advertisements at the entrance of several universities in the east and raise the salary and benefits, and there will be many talented young people willing to come to us to seek gold."

The gold rush in the West has never passed, but it used to be about real gold, but now it's about a lot of job opportunities and avenues for advancement.

Thanks to the years of war and repressive social atmosphere in the Old World, a large number of talents poured into the United States. The next half century was an era of roaring development for the United States.

The two world wars devastated the entire Old World, and the United States, which had not experienced the war, became the world's factory. It absorbed talents and nutrients from all over the world, and then sold its industrial products to the world, making a lot of money. The bowl is full.

After so many years of development, the east is almost saturated, while the west, although various states have been established for many years, is like West Elizabeth. There are only two big towns in such a large place, and people are everywhere, and people are making money everywhere. Chance.

"Then I'll leave these things to you. I have to go back and find a place to build a factory, buy equipment, and prepare for our upcoming talents." Zhou Zheng picked up his wine glass and clinked it with William, and the two of them drank their glasses happily. Drink all the red wine in one gulp.

"Are you going to build a new town?" William put down the wine glass and poured some more for the two of them.

"How do you say it?" Zhou Zheng asked curiously.

"Your place is already very big and prosperous now. It is impossible for Strawberry Town to watch you stay outside his system. If you don't plan to build a new town, then you should negotiate with Strawberry Town as soon as possible. What should I do? Do whatever you want." William said seriously.

"What if I planned to build my own town?"

"Then you have to be prepared. Strawberry Town will not just watch you break away from them and form a faction of your own." William said hesitantly: "You must think about this matter carefully. There are pros and cons in it."

William is right, this matter must be carefully considered.

If he does not break away, the benefits will be obvious. People in Strawberry Town will continue to support him. Coupled with the support of Blackwater Town, he will naturally be like a fish in water.

But there are also disadvantages. The people of Strawberry Town do not support it in vain. Those rich people will definitely want to get a share of the pie. The more people there are, the more mixed their opinions will be, which will inevitably hinder things in the future.

And now that there are more and more people there, the judicial system, such as the police, will definitely get involved.

And the benefits of being a self-contained group can also be seen, that is, they can make their own decisions on everything and do it completely according to their own wishes. Without restrictions, their development speed is astonishing.

But the people of Strawberry Town will not just watch Zhou Zheng, the fat man, slip away. Once Zhou Zheng is about to leave, retaliation and troublemaking from all parties will definitely follow. How to deal with these things will be a big problem.

"I'll go back and think about this matter slowly. It's a bit early to say this now." Zhou Zheng shook his head. This matter cannot be solved in a short while. You have to find a suitable opportunity.

William glanced at Zhou Zheng. After hearing this answer, he already understood Zhou Zheng's choice. He also thought carefully in his heart that it was time to build momentum for his son-in-law.
