1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

After coming out of the Peace Hotel, Lu Chen said to Lu Jiaming, "Brother, I won't go back with you. I'm going to the company."

Lu Jiaming nodded and warned: "Then be careful on your own way. Don't forget that you are still on the Black Dragon Society's must-kill list."

Lu Chen nodded to show that he understood, then he stopped a rickshaw on the side of the road and headed towards William Trading Company.

Half an hour later, Lu Chen arrived at the company. William was very surprised to see Lu Chen coming to the company.

"Boss, didn't you say you had something to deal with these few days? Why did you come to the company today? Have you finished your work?"

Lu Chen didn't have anything to do. He just felt a little tired, so he found an excuse to take a break. He didn't get the order from Director Chen today, so he felt a little irritated. He didn't want to go home, so he came to the company to see if there was anything to do to divert his attention.

He replied: "Things are not going well, so I am going to come to your place to take a look."

William said casually: "Boss, what's going on? Why don't you tell us and we can discuss it. Maybe there will be a solution."

Lu Chen looked at William hesitantly. He was a little confused about whether to tell William about it.

It stands to reason that William has been doing arms business in China for a year, so he must have a lot of connections, and he might know Minister Chen. It is even possible that they have done business before.

I told William everything about this order, and William should be able to find a way to get this order.

But Lu Chen was a little worried. He bought a German production line and made a Mauser rifle. This was equivalent to digging up Germany's foundation. This was a bit unethical.

Lu Chen was worried that William, a former German soldier, would be disgusted by his actions after learning about them, which would leave a bad impression on him and make him part ways with him. This made him feel very conflicted.

In the end, Lu Chen decided to tell William about it, because he was not the only one who dug the foundation of the Third Reich. If William parted ways with him because of this incident, he could only accept his fate.

So Lu Chen gave William a brief account of what happened today when he met Minister Chen.

After hearing this, William said with some complaints:

"Boss, why didn't you tell me earlier that you have a military factory in the United States? If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have stopped the arms business."

Lu Chen explained awkwardly, "I only recently built this military factory. All the equipment was bought from Germany. I was worried that you would feel bad after I told you."

William curled his lips and said, "What's so sad about this? Germany doesn't even have an army now, so why keep these weapons production equipment? It's better to sell them and buy some food for the people."

Lu Chen laughed dryly and said, "William, do you think we can still get this order?"

William thought about it in his mind, then turned around and opened the safe, took out five "big yellow croakers" from it, placed them in front of Lu Chen and said:

"I have dealt with Minister Chen before. He is a rather greedy person. Boss, didn't you say you would have dinner with him tonight? I have some gold bars here. You can deliver them to him tonight. As long as he accepts them, the order will basically be ours."

Lu Chen nodded and said helplessly: "Okay, I'll try it tonight."

William continued to ask: "Boss, since you have opened an arms factory and can produce arms, can our company's arms business continue?"

Since Lu Chen had already told William about his military factory, he naturally wanted to let William continue to do the arms business. He smiled and said:

"Of course, my factory is in the Philippines, so it will be more convenient for you to get the goods in the future."

William said excitedly: "That's great."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting William's words. Then a sweet voice came from outside:

"Mr. William, Mr. Xu Wenqiang from the Qing Gang is here to see you. Do you want to meet him?"

William looked at Lu Chen with a questioning look. Lu Chen nodded indifferently, and then William said to the person outside: "Xiao Mei, I just happen to have nothing to do now, please bring Mr. Xu Wenqiang in."

A moment later, Xiaomei brought Xu Wenqiang to William's office.

Lu Chen looked at Xu Wenqiang who came in. He was wearing a black windbreaker, had a slicked-back hair, and held a toothpick in his mouth. This reminded Lu Chen of the "Little Brother Ma" in the movie. Xu Wenqiang's equipment was too similar to Little Brother Ma's.

As soon as Xu Wenqiang entered the door, he said to William with a smile: "Mr. William, I am here to bother you again today."

William also asked Xu Wenqiang to sit on the sofa in the office with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Xu, you haven't been here for a long time. What brings you here today?"

After William finished speaking, he took out a bag of tea from under his table, took a handful of tea leaves from it and made a cup of tea for Xu Wenqiang.

Xu Wenqiang quickly stood up and took the teacup.

"Mr. William, you are so polite. You always make me such good tea every time I come. I came here for the same reason as before. I want to buy some things from you."

William laughed even more happily when he heard the sound.

"Mr. Xu, you came at the right time. My business just resumed and you came. So I will give you a 10% discount on everything you buy today."

Xu Wenqiang was very surprised and said, "Oh, really? Thank you so much, Mr. William."

William smiled and asked, "Mr. Xu, what goods do you need this time and how much is the quantity?"

Xu Wenqiang frowned and glanced at Lu Chen who was sitting next to him, then said with some embarrassment:

"Mr. William, this..."

Seeing Xu Wenqiang's expression, William quickly pointed at Lu Chen and said:

"I forgot to introduce you, Mr. Xu. This is our company's boss, Mr. Lu Chenlu. Mr. Xu, just tell me what you want to buy. We are all family, so there is no need to be considerate."

Xu Wenqiang quickly stood up and stretched out his hand to Lu Chen and said, "Hello, Boss Lu. I never thought that William Trading Company was actually run by a Chinese."

Lu Chen stood up and shook hands with Xu Wenqiang before saying, "Mr. Xu, you're too polite. I was just lucky. I got to know Mr. William and used his connections to start this company."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sat down separately. Xu Wenqiang smiled and said to William, "Since we are all family, I will be frank. I came here to buy 20 box guns. I wonder if you have any, Mr. William."

William was silent for a while and then said, "Mr. Xu, I don't have so much stock here. How about this? You wait a few days. We will have a batch of goods arriving in Shanghai in a few days. I will notify you then. How about this?"

Xu Wenqiang nodded and said, "That's fine. We're not in a hurry these days anyway. But Mr. William, I must get this batch of goods by the end of this month."

William assured: "Please rest assured, Mr. Xu. I will definitely deliver the goods to you, Mr. Xu, this month."

After the discussion, William prepared to take Lu Chen and Xu Wenqiang out for dinner.
