1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Lu Chen carried the wooden box onto the ship. In order to ensure the safety of the box of information, he specially booked a single room in the first class cabin this time.

After returning to the cabin, the first thing Lu Chen did was to put the box on the bed. He wanted the box to be within his sight at all times.

Half a month later, Lu Chen returned to the United States. When he got home, he immediately found Fu Mingzhuo and asked about the factory.

Fu Mingzhuo reported:

"The day after you left, more than 100 workers were sent to us. Chen Jianghe has already produced several prototypes of the cars you designed. The workers felt that the prototypes were pretty good. They are just waiting for you to come back and give the order for production."

"A prototype car is out so soon?"

Lu Chen exclaimed in surprise at Chen Jianghe's speed.

"It could have been even faster, but the factory had some problems recently and production was always disrupted, which resulted in the production of the prototype only recently."

The factory had problems again. Lu Chen felt a little unhappy and frowned as he asked:

"What went wrong? Are the workers dissatisfied? Or is there something else going on?"

Fu Mingzhuo explained:

"The workers did not cause any trouble and were very satisfied with the salary we offered them. The main reason was that some Chinese people would often appear near the factory and harass the workers on their way to and from get off work. The workers had already had several conflicts with those Chinese people, which delayed production."

Hearing about the Chinese making trouble, Lu Chen naturally thought of the Chinese who resigned some time ago. This is bullying me for not having a temper, right? Thinking of this, Lu Chen angrily cursed:

"Damn it, what's wrong with those Chinese? Didn't they resign on their own? Why are they back to cause trouble now?"

After cursing, Lu Chen continued to ask:

"Did you call the police? Were any workers injured?"

When this matter was mentioned, Fu Mingzhuo became quite angry. He said with an indignant look on his face:

"I called the police right away, but after they arrested those people, they released them within half a day. It was completely useless. It didn't solve the problem at all."

Catching and then quickly releasing him was a familiar operation to Lu Chen. He thought about it carefully. Damn, isn't this the same as the last time he was caught for playing tricks at school, and Adams immediately found someone to get him out?

After thinking it through, Lu Chen immediately realized that there must be someone behind this, but he didn't know what the purpose behind it was. Thinking of this, he instinctively wanted to ask Adams to help him investigate who was behind it. Lu Chen stood up and said to Fu Mingzhuo:

"Wait a minute, I'll make a phone call and ask what's going on."

Fu Mingzhuo was speechless when he saw Lu Chen getting up to make a phone call. He muttered softly:

"Do you even need to ask? Someone in the police station must have taken the money."

Lu Chen ignored Fu Mingzhuo. He walked to the phone and dialed Adams.

"Adams, this is Lu Chen."

Knowing that it was Lu Chen calling, Adams said excitedly:

"Lu Chen, you're back. How's it going? Did you get anything this time? I've already prepared the money to acquire the oil company."

Lu Chen said unhappily:

"There's nothing to gain. Damn it. Those who attended the auction are all big shots. They spend five or six million pounds without blinking an eye. The money I have is not even enough to fill other people's teeth."

Hearing that Lu Chen didn't get the oil field because of money, Adams said angrily:

"Why are you so stingy? I didn't ask you to pay all at once. Don't you know that you can only pay 30% of the money at the auction? The rest will be paid after the auction is over.

You have 10 or 20 million dollars in your hand. It's no problem for you to acquire an oil field worth less than 10 million pounds. Shit! You didn't even get a single piece of oil."

Lu Chen was stunned. Is there such a rule? He really didn't know anything about it, and no one told him. He asked angrily:

"Is there such a rule? I didn't know! Why didn't you tell me in advance? Don't you know that this is my first time attending an auction?"

Adams was depressed. He had indeed forgotten that this was Lu Chen's first time attending such an auction. But he was still upset that he didn't get the oil field this time. He asked impatiently:

"So what is the reason you are calling me now?"

Lu Chen could hear a hint of dissatisfaction in Adams' tone, but he was even more upset at this moment. Not only did he fail to obtain the oil field this time, but his factory at home was also disrupted. He failed to get either end right. He said irritably:

"Someone is causing trouble in my factory."

"If someone is causing trouble, call the police."

"Would it be useful to call the police? I'd call you for nothing!"

Adams was speechless. He thought for a moment and said, "You can go to Minister Jess for this matter. And you can also go to my uncle for help."

"Then give me your uncle's contact information."

Adams quickly told Lu Chen about Feifuli's phone number. Then he said:

"From now on, just contact my uncle directly. Don't always contact him through me. I'm very busy."

Then he hung up the phone.

Lu Chen got the contact information and called Fei Fuli immediately without hesitation.

"Hello, I'm Fevrey."

"Uncle Feifuli, I'm Lu Chen."

"Oh~Oh, Lu Chen, why did you think of calling me?"

"Uncle Feifuli, weren't there a group of people arrested near my factory some time ago? I want to know why they were released on the same day."

Fei Fuli said a little embarrassedly

"I can't do anything about this. The State Police Department gave me an order, so I can't not release him."

"So that's how it is. Uncle Fei Fuli, do you know who the person is who came to my factory to cause trouble?"

"I know this. They are from a Chinese gang called Tiandihui. I heard that they have some connection with the Red Gate in California. Lu, how did you get involved with them? Tiandihui is not easy to deal with. They have thousands of members. I heard that they have guns. You have to be careful."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Feifuli for clearing up my confusion. I have some things to do here, so I'll hang up now."

After Lu Chen hung up the phone, he fell into thought. It turned out to be the group of people from the Tiandihui. They were able to use the relationship of the State Police Department. I wonder if they asked the Red Gate for help.

In this case, it seems that we need to spend some money and use some tricks to get rid of the group of people from the Tiandihui. Lu Chen picked up the phone again and called Jess.

"Hi, I'm Jace."

"Minister Jess, I'm Lu Chen."

Because Lu Chen helped Jess solve the employment problem for the workers, he had a good impression of Lu Chen. When he heard that it was Lu Chen who called, Jess smiled and said:

"It's Mr. Lu. I wonder why you called me at this time. What's the matter?"

"Mr. Jess, this is what I am doing. I am planning to expand my factory and would like to buy 100 hectares of land near my factory. I wonder if Mr. Jess can help me."

Jess frowned. There were several other factories near Lu Chen's factory. If Lu Chen wanted to buy land, he would have to find a way to move those factories. This would normally be easy to do, but in this special period, every surviving factory was important to the government.

Jace didn't want to forcefully move these factories. So he said:

"Mr. Lu, 100 hectares of land is easy to solve, but there are several factories next to your factory. Our government will not force these factories to move away. You need to convince those factories yourself."

Lu Chen thought about it and felt that as long as he paid the money, this should not be difficult, so he agreed:

"Then could you please help me contact the owners of these factories, Mr. Jess? I need to meet with them."

Jace thought about it and felt that he could help. Whether the deal could be concluded depended on Lu Chen himself.

"Okay, I'll notify the bosses of those factories to come over and introduce you to them. The rest is up to you."

Lu Chen immediately thanked him: "Thank you so much, Minister Jess."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Chen said to Fu Mingzhuo:

"Old Fu, please buy me a better pocket watch."

Fu Mingzhuo was very clear about Lu Chen's thoughts and nodded quickly:

"Okay, I'll stop by the watch shop on my way back to the factory. I'll buy you one."

Lu Chen looked at Fu Mingzhuo and said:

"Let's continue. You've finished talking about the factory. What about the lab? Is there any progress with Ibaka?"

"The lab is fine. Ibaka said he has developed what you mentioned, but the reaction is not stable yet. He is working on it. Once he has solved it, we can start trial production in small batches."

Nylon was made, and this news made Lu Chen very excited.

"Did he test the performance of that thing?"

At this point, Lu Chen paused and continued:

"Forget it, just send the sample over here. I'll test it myself."

"Okay, I'll have someone send it to you right after I get back."

Later, Lu Chen and Fu Mingzhuo talked about other things in the factory. When Lu Chen and the others finished talking, the servants had already prepared lunch.

After lunch, Fu Mingzhuo left the villa and headed to the factory, while Lu Chen returned to his room to take a nap.

At this time, in a martial arts hall in downtown New York, Yamanaka Nibi received a telegram from his home country.

After reading the telegram, he showed a lost expression.

Yamashita Yezhong looked at the lost Yamanaka Erbi and asked, "Yamaka-kun, what did the telegram say that made you so happy?"

Yamanaka Erbi smiled and said:

"I didn't say anything. I just said that Jiro Ono, the president of the Magic City Black Dragon Society, was removed from his position by the headquarters due to serious dereliction of duty."

Hearing this news, Yamashita Yezhong asked in confusion: "Yamazhong, the position of the person in charge of the Magic City is vacant now. This is your chance. Why do you look so disappointed?"

Shan Zhong Er Bi sighed:

"It's not that easy to become the president of the Magic City Black Dragon Society. You have to know that in order to let Ono Jiro become the president, his family paid a huge price in the society. I'm just a commoner. The officials at the headquarters will not give this position to a commoner."

The people at the foot of the mountain consoled him and said:

"Yamano-kun, you still have a chance. As long as you make great contributions and let those people see your ability, you can apply at that time. I believe those people at the headquarters will definitely agree."

"It's not that easy to achieve great success."

The people at the foot of the mountain immediately reminded:

"Mr. Yamanaka, have you forgotten about Lu Chen? He is the one on the kill order. If you kill him, it will be a great achievement."

Hearing Lu Chen, Shan Zhonger's eyes lit up. He felt that God was still looking after him, and he still had a chance to fight for the position of president of the Magic City Black Dragon Society.

But he also thought that Lu Chen was very cautious and had very powerful weapons. It was impossible to kill Lu Chen before the headquarters selected a new candidate.

Shan Zhong Er Bi shook his head and said:

"We want to get rid of Lu Chen before the headquarters appoints a new president. The time is too tight. We don't stand a chance at all."

Yamashita Yezhong suggested: "We are short on time and have a heavy task. Let's just give up the assassination and attack directly. I don't believe that Lu Chen, who only has more than 20 people, can withstand our attack."

Shan Zhongerbi was somewhat tempted, but he was also a little worried, after all, this was in the United States. If he made too much noise here, would it affect Xiaorizi's relationship with the United States?

Yamashita Yezhong saw the concerns of Yamanaka Erbi and said, "Yamaka-kun, this is the president of the Black Dragon Society in the Magic City. It's worth a gamble."

Shan Zhong Er Bi thought that this was right. This kind of opportunity doesn't come around often. If I don't fight hard, how can I compete with those children from big families for this position? He slapped the table and said:

"Then let's do it. Go down the mountain and gather some people. We will act tonight. Before we act, go and contact Sun Yuanlin from the Tiandihui. He also has a grudge against Lu Chen. With his help, we will have a better chance of success."

The people at the foot of the mountain said immediately:

"Ha! I'll do it right away."

After the people at the foot of the mountain left, the second person in the mountain stood at the window and said to himself:

"Lu Chen, just be a stepping stone on my road to success."

Sun Yuanlin was surprised when he received the invitation from Shanzhong Erbi. What did Lu Chen do to cause Shanzhong Erbi to retaliate so recklessly?

He thought about it and felt that this was an opportunity. As long as he helped Xiao Rizi, he would be connected with Xiao Rizi in the future. It would be more convenient for him to smuggle opium in the future.

He ordered his men:

"Go and inform the brothers below that there will be a big operation tonight. Have the brothers prepare their weapons."

After hearing Sun Yuanlin's instructions, several of his trusted subordinates immediately stood up and left the room.

After Sun Yuanlin and the others left, they immediately laughed and sighed:

"Haha, Lu Chen, you've gotten into big trouble because of your arrogance. I want to see how arrogant you can be this time. You beat up my son, Sun Yuanlin. This time, I'm going to make you pay a thousand times over."

Lu Chen was completely unaware of the danger approaching him. He was still sleeping soundly in bed.
