In fact, this is no wonder Schmidt. Although Long Hao promised to give him 10% of the shares of the mining company, the gold mine has only been excavated for two months, and the establishment of the mining company is far away. Schmidt is now extremely poor.

Ding dong, no, he bought several sets of geological research equipment in Seattle, gritted his teeth, and decided to get $30,000 out of it first!

As for that Dream Island, the registration fee is only US$100, and it only has one ship, the Homecoming, which is clearly an empty shell. Schmidt now feels that he can exchange the illusory 3% of the shares for US$30,000.

What a bargain!

On August 24, the Homecoming officially set sail from the Port of Seattle, flying the American flag (the company was registered in the United States). In order to make it happen, Long Hao asked several French and Spanish people (Llorente's men) to sail the ship.

and the princess's attendants) boarded the ship, and all obeyed the thunder dragon's orders.

After bidding farewell to the newly docked Homecoming, the Dream sailed out of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and into the Pacific Ocean. It sailed along the west coast of the United States and passed by Long Beach, which had just been established for 2 years. It meandered all the way, blowing the sea breeze, and sailed into

The Columbia River enters Portland!

Portland is the largest city in Oregon. It was founded in 1843. It was just a small port at the beginning. However, with the economic development of the United States since the mid-19th century, it has become the largest port in the Pacific Northwest of the United States! However, as time goes by,

With the construction of the railway, Seattle is prospering and is now about to replace Portland as the central port connecting the northwest United States to the Pacific Ocean!

Despite this, Portland was still very prosperous in September when Long Hao arrived. Most businessmen had not yet realized that this 'City of Roses' was about to wither. Many shipyards and large heavy industry factories were still roaring and emitting emissions day and night.

The black smoke produces goods, and the workers in the city are also full of energy and shuttle, and the whole city still has a strong vitality!

After the Dream Dream docked, Long Hao sent Gordon to inquire about the Spanish Consulate in Portland. Gordon was very efficient and soon found out that the Spanish Consulate was located beside a rose garden in the southeast of the city.

So, with Princess Melissa as the main one and Long Hao as her attendant, the group dressed up in Spanish costumes and got on the bumpy old-fashioned tram. It took them an hour to arrive at this city with roses everywhere.

A floral mansion.

The mansion is a small Moorish-style building, five stories high. There is a small arched fountain in the front yard. The roof of the building is arched and circular. There are many sparkling water channels on both sides of the path, and there are also ivory and ceramic decorations.

, the sun shines down, and the beautiful reflections of the decorations appear in the water, which makes people fascinated!

After Melissa walked in, her veil kept trembling. It was obvious that she saw buildings similar to those in her hometown, and she felt cordial and excited.

The consul was a bald old man with a broad chin named Bosque. When he saw the royal certificate presented by Melissa, he smiled like a wild chrysanthemum.

"I didn't expect to meet the noble princess here. Bosque is flattered. Please accept my respect!" Before the Spanish-American War, Spain was still one of the great powers, and the dignity of the royal family was still high.

"Excuse me. In fact, I came all the way this time to complete the test my family has given me!" Melissa sighed quietly, her voice was like the sound of nature, even though most of her face was covered, it still made Bosque look at her.

God's gift, my heart is intoxicated.

The old guy looks like a pig! Long Hao stood behind, snoring in his heart.

"What kind of test is it? If you can get me Bosque's place, please give me your orders, Your Highness!"

"I really need help from the consul!" Melissa smiled slightly: "I want to acquire a chemical plant. Does the consul have any good suggestions?"

After receiving the 10,000 US dollars in benefits, Bosque immediately became active like a rabbit out of the cage.

On September 3, a Spanish company named ‘Ocean&melisa’ was registered in Portland. Because it was a cross-border registration, the registration fee was slightly higher, US$500!

On September 6, O&M (Oumei Company), which had just been established for three days, invested US$115,000 to buy a chemical factory on the verge of bankruptcy outside Portland. This factory originally produced soap, dyes and rubber tires. However,

Because it failed to compete in the U.S. market and suffered losses for 16 consecutive months, with Bosque's help, the French factory owner quickly agreed to sell the entire factory to Long Hao.

This chemical factory not only has a factory area of ​​3.5 square kilometers, four production workshops, and a complete set of chemical production equipment... most importantly, it also has nearly 500 employees, of which senior chemical talents account for 30%!

115,000 US dollars? Not expensive at all, but a huge profit! Long Hao touched his chin and thought to himself: It seems that this French factory owner has brought the romanticism of their country to industrial production! 30%

There are 150 chemical talents. Why should he open a chemical factory? He should directly set up a laboratory to research formulas and sell patents!

Selling soap, dyes and tires, producing such products with no technical content, and not having a marketing department, it’s no wonder that they don’t go bankrupt!

"Sentas, I appoint you as the executive director and director of this 'Meihao Chemical Factory', with full responsibility for the affairs of this factory! I ask you that this factory can be put back into production within a week!"

This chemical plant was originally going to follow the name of the parent company and be called 'Haomei Chemical Plant', but Long Hao felt that the name was not good (Haomei? What bad luck?), so he dropped the two words! On the contrary, it was

After Melissa heard this, she thought Long Hao respected her, and she was secretly happy.

"Master Long, don't worry. Schmidt and I have just walked around the factory. Let alone a week, even if you want to start work tomorrow, there will be no problem!" Little Liebixi's face was filled with fiery enthusiasm.

, said, patting his chest!

Finally... the young master bought me a chemical plant. After holding back for so long, I, Liebig... can finally show off my talents!

In Meihao Chemical Factory, Little Liebig holds 10% of the shares, Princess Melissa holds 15%, and the remaining 75% belongs to Long Hao.

In fact, even if he does not have that 10% share, little Liebig will go all out, because this chemical plant is a platform for him to realize his dream. Master Long has so many wonderful potions in his hands, and he vows to find the formula and use chemical means to

Synthesize and use industrial means to streamline production!

"Don't be anxious, I suggest you put out a notice first to appease the workers!" Seeing that little Liebig was very motivated, Long Hao was also very happy and reminded: "The most valuable asset in this chemical factory is the more than 400 workers.

They have rich experience, and 150 of them are top students in chemistry majors in various universities. They must not be let go! If one of them leaves, you are the only one I ask!"

"clear!"

No need for Long Hao to remind him, little Liebig also knows the importance of these employees!

After spending almost half a year in Alaska's barren, cold place, little Liebig had suffered enough without a considerate assistant!

There is a lack of experimental equipment, the assistants do not understand the language, and it is difficult to train apprentices. It can be said that little Liebig has done almost all of his research in the past few months alone! There are only two apprentices who are good at it (this time they all brought

), its level of hardship is no less than that of Schmidt who studies ores all day long!

Suddenly there were 150 "scientific research talents". Little Liebig made up his mind: Whoever dares not to stay, I will ask Captain Cui to teach him a lesson!

The news that the chemical plant changed hands and was renamed "Meihao" quickly spread among the employees, but before they started to panic, a notice posted at the factory gate made them return to the factory dormitory with satisfaction. (
