- The mayor often has the final say when it comes to approving land in the city. However, the land Qu Wen wanted was too large and he had to apply to a higher level first. It took one day longer than originally planned to approve the land. He took advantage of this time to quickly build infrastructure. construction. When the mercenary company gets the approval, it will cost more money. The weapons and equipment alone will cost at least several hundred million. At the same time, the construction of related places near Chinatown was also being stepped up. In order to accommodate the disciples who could not become combatants, Qu Wen worked hard to place more than 2,000 disciples of Pluto.
The news that Pluto was about to clear his name spread to the outside world, and it didn¡¯t take long before some ambitious gangs were ready to take action, but they were severely suppressed at the first sign of a nod.
More than half a month later, Li Tang spoke out as Pluto¡¯s representative, claiming that Pluto would establish a mercenary training base in Detroit. This confirmed the rumor that Pluto would establish a mercenary company.
When the news came out, the remaining gang members who still had some ideas wilted and fell silent. Who said that Pluto would withdraw from the underworld world and become stronger? The gangster force that used to be resisted by the law has transformed into one protected by the state. The armed forces can openly use various weapons, continue part of the original industry, and at the same time assist the municipal government in managing city security. Anyone who goes against Pluto is going against the country.
Standing in the conference room on the sixth floor of Pluto's headquarters, Qu Wen and others laughed happily as they looked at the newly approved mercenary company license, with the word "Pluto" written on the header.
¡°This thing alone cost billions of dollars, but fortunately it was done, and it feels like a dream.¡± Brody said, he is now the bishop of Pluto. For today, he specially went to Blackwater Company to receive military training for half a year. The purpose is to learn the management mechanism of Blackwater Company.
"Actually, most of the money was spent on opening up the joints. After opening these layers, I doubt that I can help people open up the second branch of the governor again." Qu Wen joked, in order to get this piece of paper, the middle No one understands hard work better than him. Just like what he said, you can get through it layer by layer, and then you will be successful.
Hearing this, the crowd laughed. The money was spent, but not in vain. Moreover, most of the money is spent on the construction of municipal-related facilities. These facilities are still managed by Pluto and operated according to the corporate model. As long as there are no major problems, the money can always be recovered sooner or later. What's more, after the mercenary company is officially established, it will be like a chicken laying golden eggs, and money will continue to come in.
"How many disciples can we officially turn into combat personnel now?" Qu Wen turned around and asked. Some of Pluto's disciples were retired soldiers, and now they have all been turned into instructors in the gang, responsible for training the gang disciples.
"There are 1,126 main combat personnel. There are 320 base personnel and support personnel, and the rest have been transferred to Chinatown and some of the original industries for work management." Li Tang said. There are more than a thousand combatants, equivalent to the strength of a regiment.
"You and Brody should follow up on the weapon matter, don't let Thor trick us."
What¡¯s very interesting is that the name of the designated arms procurement company is somewhat similar to Pluto, called Thor.
Raytheon is a large U.S. defense arms contractor headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. It has 73,000 employees around the world and an annual turnover of approximately US$20 billion, of which 100 Ninety percent of it comes from defense contracts. According to a 2005 data report from defense news, Raytheon is the world's fifth-largest arms dealer.
Qu Wen said this just to ask the two of them to pay more attention. After all, the quality of Thor's production and arms is guaranteed. In addition, Thor also helped to provide some international cutting-edge new weapons to Pluto.
"Don't worry about this. Brody will be responsible for quality control. The first batch of weapons will arrive in a month. By then, the basic facilities of the base will be almost completed."
"Okay, I won't care about this. I should take a break after being busy for so long. I still have my own things to do."
Li Tang and others knew what Qu Wen was talking about. Zhong Kui, Yin Xiaofeng and Liang Shan had already entered the secret room to practice more than two months in advance, and were fully improving their cultivation with the medicine provided by the six departments. Qu Wen had been delayed for a long time about Pluto, and he didn't know if he was in a hurry or not.
"Leave the rest to us. You have to work harder after taking it for so long."
"Yes." Qu Wen sighed longly. Spiritual awareness and supernatural powers are different from other skills and can be increased without deliberate practice. Now that there is only more than a year left before the conference, it is no longer possible to practice according to the normal practice method. "I want to go back to my country and figure out my own training matters."
"Go back, I know you can't get used to living in the United States." Julia said, Qu Wen has been unable to integrate into the life here after several months in the United States. I don't usually say anything, but the look of homesickness is often reflected on my face.
"Let's go in a few days, anyway, there is still one day before the Spring FestivalIt¡¯s rare to come to the United States every month. It¡¯s rare for me to have free time and I want to visit various places in the United States. "
"What!" Li Tang looked in surprise. "At this time, you still have time to travel."
"It can be considered a trip, but I have other purposes."
Although spiritual awareness does not need to be practiced deliberately, it cannot be quickly improved through meditation like Zhong Kui and others. If you want to improve your spiritual awareness in a short period of time, you can only absorb a large amount of spiritual energy. Nowadays, it is difficult to increase the aura quickly just by relying on antiques. The only way is to go to the spiritual mountains and rivers. Before that, Qu Wen had been searching for famous spiritual mountain holy places in the world, such as Mount Everest and Shennongjia in China, Mount Osore in Japan, and Mount Rushmore in the United States. If you want to know whether there is a large amount of spiritual energy in these spiritual mountain holy places, you can only know it by going there in person.
Qu Wen didn¡¯t say anything about the purpose, and they didn¡¯t ask too many questions. This is how it is between brothers. There are some things that the other party doesn¡¯t want to say, so there is no need to deliberately know.
"Then be careful. After all, this is not China." Julia reminded, what she meant was that the international killer organization is in the United States. If Qu Wen travels alone, he will easily be attacked. No matter what the reason is, no one wants anything to happen to Qu Wen.
After chatting for a while at Pluto¡¯s headquarters, Qu Wen returned to his new home near Chinatown. At this time, Gong Xiaolan also happened to come back from Chinatown, and the two of them smiled at each other. Walking into the house hand in hand.
Since Han Xueer came to the United States. The hall of Qu Wen's new home became her territory. No matter when, she would sit on the sofa and watch American TV series, especially fantasy TV series. For this reason, I once curiously asked Qu Wen why American TV series can be so well-produced. Qu Wen's answer was simple. The first is money, the second is professionalism, and the third is mutual respect.
Like in the domestic entertainment industry, unless you are a very famous screenwriter. Otherwise, there will be no status at all. A script will be revised here and there by a big-name star, and it will be completely changed beyond recognition. There are too many facts like this. Moreover, many actors who have just debuted or are not well-known have worked hard to memorize their lines for several days. On the day of filming, a big-name star said, "I think this sentence is unreasonable, so I won't use it anymore!" The young actor who had been preparing hard for several days lost one opportunity.
The same thing happens in Hollywood. That simply wouldn't happen at Disney, which has a professional writing staff. When the company needs to make a film, it will call in all the screenwriters, and each one will tell his or her idea for five to ten minutes. Then the one who feels good will go on to help complete the rest. The actors were not allowed to make any arbitrary changes afterwards, so a well-conceived and rigorous film was produced.
In fact, this is true not only abroad, but also in China many years ago. Mr. Lao She once said in very stern words: touching me is like raping my mother. This shows that Mr. Lao She attaches great importance to copyright. But now the actors randomly change the scripts and finally manipulate the ratings, so that the level of domestic dramas will never be raised.
Of course, Qu Wen is just chatting about this kind of thing, and I am not the screenwriter to do so much.
Seeing the two of them returning home, Han Xueer turned around and said lightly: "You are back, when will we have dinner."
"Then what do you want to eat?"
"Let's eat curry."
"Why do you suddenly want to eat this?"
"Here." Han Xueer turned back and pointed at the TV. In the plot on the TV, the hero and heroine were eating curry.
Having been with Han Xueer for a long time, I found that she is a bit rebellious but otherwise quite good. I gradually like this sister more and more. He smiled and said, "Then let's go eat curry. There is a new Indian restaurant in the next street."
The three of them went as they were told, and soon arrived at an Indian restaurant two streets away. As the security in Detroit stabilized and publicity increased, some foreign investors came here to open shops. Cheap housing prices and low taxes became the Advantages that attract everyone to invest.
The ordered dishes were quickly served one by one. After eating a few mouthfuls, Qu Wen said seriously: "Xiao Lan, I want to go out."
"Where to go?"
¡°Mount Rushmore.¡±
"What are you doing there?" Gong Xiaolan asked curiously.
"Look at the aura there."
Knowing that the practice of Quwen is very special, it needs to be nourished by the aura. Before that, it was delayed for Pluto for so long. Now I finally have some time and finally have time to go to practice.
"Can I go with you?"
"No." Qu Wen refused flatly. Under the protection of Pluto and Han Xue'er in Detroit, no one dared to touch her. If she left here and went to the mountains, if she really encountered danger, he might not be able to protect her.
Gong Xiaolan knew what Qu Wen was worried about. He was afraid that something would happen to him, but he was not the same.
"But I'm worried about you."
"What are you worried about, I won't come back once I leave?" Qu Wen said with a smile.
"I'm on Brother Wen's side in this matter." Han Xue'er interrupted: "Sister Lan, you are the only one who has to worry about me. With Brother Wen's current ability, if you can't fight him, you can always run away. If you follow him, you're afraid of meeting the enemy. He I have to distract myself from taking care of you.¡±
Han Xueer's words are not unreasonable. After all, Qu Wen is a master in the realm of transforming into gods. He has not even reached the level of practicing Qi and transforming into essence, so he can only become a burden.
Looking at Qu Wen, Gong Xiaolan said: "Then be careful, I'll wait for you at home."
"Don't worry." Qu Wen reached out and touched Gong Xiaolan's nose, not caring about anyone around him. "I'm just going to have a look. If there's nothing else, I'll come back before the Spring Festival. Then we'll go home to celebrate the holidays together."
The home Qu Wen talks about is not the building next to Chinatown, but the real home far across the ocean, in China.
Gong Xiaolan had a happy smile on her face. A man who is willing to take a woman home and introduce her to his parents shows that he truly cares about him.
¡°Then we¡¯ve made an agreement, remember to call me.¡±
"Um."
*************************************************
Mount Rushmore National Memorial Park, also known as Mount Rushmore, is a memorial park to the President of the United States of America located near Keystone, South Dakota, USA. There are four 60-foot-tall statues of famous former presidents in American history in the park. They are Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt and Lincoln. These four presidents are considered to represent the 150 years of history of the United States. In order to protect these four heads. The U.S. Department of the Interior established a branch here.
Carrying a backpack and wearing a single coat, I walked alone on the mountain trail of Mount Rushmore. I was surrounded by tourists coming here, most of whom were American tourists. The four presidential statues on the mountain made Mount Rushmore a The holy mountain in their hearts.
When I walked to the foot of the mountain and let go of my spiritual sense, I didn¡¯t realize how strong Mount Rushmore¡¯s spiritual energy was. There was some light floating around, but this alone was not even comparable to a fine antique with a shining light.
Qu Wen shook his head, this is the sacred mountain in the hearts of Americans. Except for some local attractions, they simply cannot meet their needs.
Maybe it will be stronger in the mountains.
With this thought in mind, I continued walking into the mountains and arrived in front of the Lincoln Borglum Museum. Just as I was about to walk in, I was suddenly called by an old foreign couple.
"Can young people take long-term photos for us?"
Although they are also blond and blue-eyed, it can be seen that this couple is not American. This is like the difference between Chinese and Korean people. The main difference is in temperament.
Turning around and seeing the kind expressions of the old couple, Qu Wen walked over, took the camera with a smile, and took several photos of the old couple with a few clicks.
Seeing Qu Wen¡¯s friendly attitude, the two elders took the camera back and asked again: ¡°Can we also take a photo for you?¡±
"Of course." Qu Wen doesn't like to refuse other kindness. I know that this is the interest of many foreign tourists. They like to take pictures of the people and things they pass by on their cameras. Consider it a wonderful travel memory.
The two elders smiled happily, waited for Qu Wen to pose, and took a picture of him with a click.
"Okay, can I ask for your email address? I can send it to you directly when I get back to the hotel." Qu Wen rarely refuses other people's kindness, but it does not mean that he is not wary. The old couple met by chance and suddenly asked him I don¡¯t know what the purpose of the email address is. I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s not just to send photos to myself.
In Qu Wen's heart, the United States has always been the enemy's territory. His biggest enemy, the International Killer Organization, is here. The general has premeditated to get rid of him several times. He has to be careful about this. He was really afraid of the two elders when he took pictures for them. Suddenly he pulled out a gun and shot himself.
I hesitated and gave out my email address that I rarely use.
"We will send you the photos when we get back to the hotel that night." the old man said.
"Okay, I don't know where these two tourists are from." Qu Wen asked equally curiously, with a hint of vigilance in his curiosity.
"We." The old couple looked at each other, and the old man laughed again: "We are from the Principality of Zealand."
"The Principality of Sealand?" Qu Wen was stunned for a moment. He had never heard of this country. Could it be that it was a newly established small country. "I'm sorry, where is the Principality of Sealand?"
"On the English Channel" the old gentleman said slowly.
It turns out that the Principality of Sealand is the most well-known private country in the world. Its territory only has an abandoned man-made building on the sea, with an area of ??only 550 square meters. Changxin rarely has more than fifteen people.Although the country's population is small, there are many members of the royal family and government departments. The royal family members include: Prince Roy Bates (head of state), Princess and co-ruler Joan Bates (Roy¡¯s wife), and Regent Michael Bates (Prince Roy¡¯s son). Government departments include: Foreign Affairs Bureau, Internal Affairs Bureau, Postal Computer and Science and Technology Bureau. However, these departments either have no activity, are closed, or operate outside the territory of Zealand's own country. The old gentleman and the old lady are the old king and queen of Zealand.
After listening to what the old man said, Qu Wen was amazed that there was such a small country in the world.
"Sir, can such a small population be considered a country?"
"Why not? As long as the United Nations recognizes it, that's fine. In fact, there are countries that are smaller and less populous than us, like the Republic of Eberts Field. It is located on a desert island in the Bahamas. It covers an area of ??only two hectares and has only one resident. Two people, namely President and Secretary of State Sid Abraham, and Prime Minister and Ambassador to the United States Manny Abraham. The two brothers, one 76 years old and the other 73 years old, were originally residents of New York. In the past few years, they spent They bought the island from the Commonwealth of the Bahamas for US$20,000 and declared "independence". From then on, the two became their own country. They asked for assistance from the United States and were approved by the US government.
"There is such a thing. What are the conditions required to apply for a private country early?" An idea flashed in Qu Wen's mind. If this way is feasible, then there will be a better solution to his marriage. . Apply to establish a private country in your own name, so that even immigrants are not afraid of being criticized by friends at home. Because the new country can be affiliated to China's name.
"This is actually not difficult. As long as you find or know that there is an undeveloped island and give some money to the United Nations and the United States, they can give you the right to use that island and make you the king of this country. .¡±
