1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Green brought Lu Chen, Sun Yuanlin and others to a Chinese restaurant called Peace Hotel, and then said to Lu Chen and others:

"If you don't mind, let's do it here."

Lu Chen looked into the store and saw no one else except two or three waiters. He nodded.

Sun Yuanlin and Wu Xuance are both local bosses, and they have no objection to this place at all.

Seeing that no one had any objection, Green took a few people into the restaurant.

As soon as he entered the restaurant, Lu Chen saw a middle-aged woman sitting at the front desk. Green said to the woman in a familiar manner:

"Boss Mei, give me a private room."

Boss Mei saw that the people who came were Green, Wu Xuance, Sun Yuanlin and Lu Chen. She was a little surprised that these people gathered together. Especially Wu Xuance and Sun Yuanlin. The Huaqing Gang and the Tiandihui were usually very hostile to each other. Why did they come together today?

But she soon stopped thinking about it. She was just a restaurant owner, why should she care about these things? She smiled and said to Green, "Mr. Green, you have come at the right time. There is no one in the "Dongmei" private room. I will ask someone to take you there right away."

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, quickly take Mr. Green and the others to the Dongmei private room."

Boss Mei yelled at the waiters who were chatting and laughing.

As soon as Boss Mei finished speaking, a waiter who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old ran over and said to Green:

"Gentlemen, please follow me."

Led by Xiao Wu, Green and his companions soon arrived at the private room called "Dongmei". The background of this private room was full of snow-white. Then there was a plum blossom-shaped table in the middle of the room.

Green asked everyone to sit down. He said to Xiao Wu:

"Ask the boss to give us a pot of good tea."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Xiao Wu bowed and walked out of the private room.

Green said to Lu Chen: "The tea here is very good. I heard from President Sun that it is the best Longjing."

Lu Chen had no knowledge of tea. In his eyes, tea was just for quenching thirst. He was very interested in why Green was so familiar with this restaurant.

"Green now, do you come here often?"

Green nodded. "I do come here often. The food here is delicious. I fell in love with it after eating here once. So I come here to eat often."

At the table, several people were chatting about family matters, and no one was talking about what happened today. Lu Chen was very disgusted with this kind of thing. When sitting at the table to discuss things, they always had to talk about other things first, which was very uncomfortable for him, a person with a 21st century soul.

In the end, Lu Chen spoke first.

"Everyone, let's talk business. I see everyone is very busy. After we finish talking about things, everyone can go back to deal with their own affairs."

Green looked at Sun Yuanlin and Lu Chen with a smile on his face.

"In that case, let's get started. I wonder what price Brother Lu Chen wants the Tiandihui to pay before they are willing to reconcile."

Lu Chen looked at Sun Yuanlin and said, "Originally, I wanted President Sun to give me one or two hundred thousand dollars and that would be it."

When Sun Yuanlin heard Lu Chen asking him to take out 1.8 million, he immediately became angry:

"Lu Chen, you must be crazy because of poverty. You don't have any money. In..."

Green glared at Sun Yuanlin, who could only swallow the rest of his words. Green made a gesture to Lu Chen, indicating that Lu Chen should continue.

Lu Chen looked at Sun Yuanlin with some contempt. He didn't expect that Sun Yuanlin, a gang leader, was so afraid of Green. At the same time, he was also curious about Green's identity.

Who is this American who can make Sun Yuanlin shut up with just a look?

Seeing Green asking him to continue, Lu Chen stopped thinking and said with a smile:

"But I don't need this little money. How about this? President Sun, give me a street in Chinatown. Let me be the boss."

Sun Yuanlin looked at Lu Chen and snorted, "You want a street? Fine. As long as you can eat it, I'll give it to you."

Lu Chen was not polite at all: "In that case, President Sun, you tell me which street to give me."

Green looked at Lu Chen and said, "Brother Lu, you'd better stop joking. You're a businessman, and it's useless for you to have this street."

Lu Chen said, "Mr. Green, you are wrong. A street may be useless to me, but the land and people are still very useful to me."

"Hahaha, so that's how it is. But unfortunately, neither of these two things belongs to him, Sun Yuanlin. He can't give them to you."

Green said after laughing for a while.

Lu Chen spread his hands, expressing his helplessness: "Then I don't know what I can ask him for."

Lu Chen turned his head and looked at Sun Yuanlin:

"President Sun, how about we find a place to have a fight?"

Sun Yuanlin was a little irritated by Lu Chen's words, and immediately stood up and wanted to say something harsh. Green quickly asked Sun Yuanlin to sit down. Green said:

"Brother Lu, I know that the people under your command are not simple. They all have a military temperament. And they are elite soldiers. How about this, since you look down on the things of the Tiandihui, then I will do President Sun a favor. I will compensate you on his behalf."

Lu Chen was a little confused about Green and didn't know what he was going to do. Could it be that Sun Yuanlin had some special role to play for him that was worthy of his protection? Lu Chen smiled and shook his head:

"How can I ask for compensation from you, Mr. Green? In this way, I will give you face, Mr. Green, and I will not embarrass President Sun. President Sun, I heard that you have several shipping companies. I only need one or two of your ships. I wonder if it will work."

The shipping company was Sun Yuanlin's lifeblood. When he heard Lu Chen mention the shipping company, Sun Yuanlin ignored Green's signal and slammed his hands heavily on the table. He leaned forward and looked at Lu Chen with murderous intent.

"Kid, you want my shipping company? No way."

Lu Chen leaned back in his chair casually and said nonchalantly, "Since President Sun doesn't want to talk, then we can just go our separate ways."

Green was also very dissatisfied with Lu Chen's continuous challenge to Sun Yuanlin's bottom line. He said to Lu Chen:

"Mr. Lu, I know that you have been in trouble recently. As long as you reconcile with President Sun this time, I will help you. What do you think of the conditions?"

Lu Chen didn't expect that Green actually knew he was in trouble. He looked at Green with some surprise:

"I don't know where Mr. Green got the news that I would be in trouble."

Green did not return to Lu Chen, but said:

"Mr. Lu, let me introduce myself. My name is Green Douglas, and I am a three-star general in the U.S. Army. If you agree to a settlement, I am willing to use my connections to help you resolve your troubles."

Three-star general, that is the rank of lieutenant general. He should be a military officer. I don’t know which American unit he is the head of. Lu Chen smiled and said:

"It turns out to be Lieutenant General Green. Excuse me, it's my fault. I don't know where General Green is posted."

Green smiled and said, "I am currently working in the Philippines. Don't worry, Mr. Lu. Although I am not working in the United States, our family can still have a say in the country."

From the Philippine Army? Isn't this the army of the American who came up with the "Christmas Offensive"? And Douglas is the same as that guy, they are not relatives. Lu Chen asked tentatively:

"Mr. Green, do you know a man named MacArthur?"

Green smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know my cousin. I've never heard Mike mention you."

Lu Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his random guess would turn out to be correct. How could he possibly know MacArthur? Lu Chen quickly waved his hand:

"I don't know MacArthur. I've only heard of him."

"So that's how it is. I wonder if Mr. Lu will agree to the conditions I proposed."

Green said with a kind look on his face.

Lu Chen fell into thought. His factory was going to be built in the Philippines. It would be good if he had a backer in the Philippines. And with Green's military rank, he must be a big shot in the Philippine Army. It would be good for him if he could establish a relationship with him.

After thinking it through, Lu Chen said to Green with a smile:

"Okay, I agree."

Seeing Lu Chen agreed, Green was very happy. If he could keep Sun Yuanlin, his business in the United States and China would be saved. After solving Sun Yuanlin's problem, he thought of the Houyi Commando mentioned by his men. He didn't expect that they were Lu Chen's men. He was very interested in this unit, so he said:

"Mr. Lu, I want to ask you a question."

"Mr. Green, you are too polite. You can just call me Xiao Lu or Xiao Chen. Don't call me Mr. Lu. That's too distant. Mr. Green, please tell me what you want to know."

Sun Yuanlin was a little indignant. This Lu Chen was really good at climbing up the ladder. He was trying to get close to Green. Now that his own affairs had been resolved, he felt that there was no need for him to stay here any longer. He really didn't want to see Lu Chen. So he said to Green:

"Mr. Green, thank you for solving this matter for me. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Green glanced at Sun Yuanlin. He was going to discuss some personal matters with Lu Chen, and he was worried that Lu Chen would be worried if other people were present. So he nodded.

"Okay, Sun, go do whatever you have to do."

Sun Yuanlin stood up and said to everyone, "Please enjoy your meals and drinks here. I will take my leave now."

After saying that, Sun Yuanlin left the room without looking back.

Seeing this, Wu Xuance also said goodbye to Lu Chen and Green, and then left the room. In an instant, Green and Lu Chen were the only ones left in the room.

Green and Lu Chen were the only ones left in the room.

Green said to Lu Chen, "Xiao Chen, let's ignore them and continue our conversation. I want to thank you first. Thank you for helping my people and taking my goods back from Xiao Rizi."

Lu Chen was a little surprised. He didn't know how Green knew about this. But this was a good thing. He had been wondering why Green was so polite to him. Now he finally understood. Lu Chen said politely:

"Mr. Green, that was all an accident. I just wanted to get revenge on Xiao Zi, but I didn't expect to be able to help you. You don't have to thank me specifically."

Green said seriously: "No matter what the reason is for you to help me, I should express my gratitude. By the way, your Houyi commando team has extraordinary combat effectiveness. I wonder where you found these people from."

Lu Chen explained: "These people are my brothers in life and death. They are all veterans who have fought in the battlefield."

"No wonder they have such fighting power. Xiaochen, are you interested in letting them join the army? With their abilities, they will definitely have better development in the army."

Green looked at Lu Chen and said.

Let Qin Jian and Hans go to the army. Lu Chen didn't expect Green to come up with this idea. Lu Chen looked at Green with some embarrassment.

"Mr. Green, let them join the army. It depends on their own willingness. You should also know that there are Chinese and Germans in my team. I will go back and ask for their opinions. The most important thing is that I also need manpower around me."

Green said to himself: "Indeed, Brother Lu Chen also needs some manpower."

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Xiao Chen, how about this? You can let your men take up a position with me. They can just go to the Philippines and report to me every year."

Lu Chen looked at Green in confusion: "Mr. Green, are you so optimistic about my commando team?"

Green nodded and said:

"My men came back and told me that your commando team of more than ten people was able to wipe out twenty or thirty bandits in the dark. This is very impressive. You have to know that those bandits are all veterans from the army."

This must be a mistake. There are clearly more than 20 people, and more than half of them are injured or killed. Lu Chen thought to himself. But he thought Qin Jian and the others would not object to him serving in the army without having to go to work. Lu Chen nodded and said:

"I'll go back and ask how many of you brothers are willing to go. Mr. Green, I want to ask how they will be treated after they join the army."

Green said, "Don't worry about this Xiaochen. He will definitely not treat the brothers unfairly. I will directly hire them as lieutenants. What do you think?"

Lu Chen thought it was not bad. A lieutenant officer should be a platoon leader. Lu Chen said, "If that's the case, I'll tell them when I get back. I just don't know where they should report if they agree to go."

Green took out a piece of paper and a pen, wrote a letter of introduction, and then wrote an address on a piece of paper. After writing, he handed them all to Lu Chen and said:

"Xiaochen, if they agree to go, let them take this letter to the address I wrote. When they arrive, someone will arrange for them to join the army."

Lu Chen collected the letter and the address. Then he said, "Okay, I got it."

After chatting with Green for a while, Lu Chen said goodbye to Green. Lu Chen walked out of the Peace Hotel and returned to the exit of Chinatown. Qin Jian saw Lu Chen coming back and immediately said:

"Boss, are you back?"

Lu Chen nodded and glanced around, noticing that the trucks had already left. Lu Chen then asked:

"Have all those laborers returned? How many people did they bring back?"

Qin Jian said: "They are all back. This time there are 276 people in total. Together with the original ones, there are 355 people in total."

Lu Chen nodded: "Then let's go back too."
