This is a lounge with an area of about 20 square meters, with several dark brown single sofas placed against the wall, a coffee table on the right hand side of the sofa, and tall potted plants on the left hand side, ensuring that there is a proper private space between each two sofas.

There is now a cup of hot coffee and a plate of scones on the coffee table in Li Wan's hand, and the blonde uniform beauty was still smiling at Li Wanyan when she sent it over just now, and now the beauty is working behind the desk outside the door, Li Wan feels that she is very kind, because almost all the white people Li Wan has seen before are arrogant and commanding, and only when facing white people will they show the same smile just now.

If Li Wan knew that there was a pistol in the desk drawer in front of the blonde beauty, then I'm afraid Li Wan wouldn't think so.

Hanging on the wall opposite Li Wan is a huge world map, which shows the sphere of influence of Adan Company in the most eye-catching colors, except for the scattered stars, most of the peninsula has been painted red, and there is the Port of Medan, and the small half of Sumatra, including the Port of Medan, is also painted red, which makes Li Wan shocked.

"Sir, please take a break here, Mr. Andy is receiving guests." The blonde beauty at the door attracted another guest.

Li Wan couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, the one who just came over was Ling Zhi, the largest farmer in Medan, and it is estimated that this one also came over just after the meeting.

Ling Zhi smiled at Li Wan and didn't say hello, then leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and the blonde beauty was also busy getting up and thanking him when she brought the coffee.

I don't know if the scones ran out, but the blonde sent only coffee, not scones.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, but it didn't last long, and soon someone came to visit Andy, this time two uniformed Chinese mercenary officers.

"Do you mind?" A uniformed officer held a pack of cigarettes and gestured to Li Wan and Ling Zhi.

"Please, please." Li Wan and Ling Zhi were both sincerely afraid.

Then the two officers swallowed the clouds, and one of them asked the blonde for an ashtray.

"I can't restrain myself, the cigarettes I gave you are a bit much." The blonde beauty sent the ashtray over angrily, her face was as cold as ice, and she was obviously disgusted by this behavior.

Although disgusted, it doesn't affect the work, and the complaint is also because it's more familiar, and the coquettish tone is actually hidden in intimacy.

The two Chinese officers laughed, and the younger one was more enthusiastic: "Let's go to dinner together after work?" ”

"I'll wait until you quit smoking." The blonde beauty did not refuse directly, and this time the treatment was even worse, not even coffee.

The two officers didn't mind, chatting with Erlang's legs crossed.

"The army here is a little weak, our team didn't fire a shot at Lansha a few days ago, and those servant troops ran away-"

"What if you don't run, you guys caught building roads?"

"Yesterday I went to raid the homes of the two earth kings, those guys are very rich, but I don't know if the land here will be sold in the future, if it is sold early, otherwise the price will spread in the country and the price will be speculated."

"The land here is too remote, and the income is not very good."

"It's better to be remote, it's cheaper to be remote, Johannesburg is not biased, can you afford it?"

"What's the solution, people come early, and those of us who come late can only drink some soup."

"It's not too late for us in Medan—"

"I still have to go to the lord for a loan, buy thousands of eight hundred acres of plantations here, we will have a head start in the future, and we will come here to retire for the elderly, but I don't know if there is a public school here."

"Don't worry about it, there are public schools in places like Port Elizabeth where birds don't, and there will definitely be one here in Medan in the future, but the quality of teaching is not easy to say, and we still have to send children back to Nyasaland to go to school."

"You don't even have a wife, where is the child?"

"It's not easy to have a wife, there are so many slave girls in Port Elizabeth—"

The two officers chatted casually, and Li Wan and Ling Zhi listened attentively.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Ling, please follow me-" The blonde beauty came over to call someone, her eyes glaring at the one who had just spoken of the slave girl, whooshing were all throwing knives.

"I'm so clean and self-conscious, and I'm never half-hearted." Just talking about the slave girl, this desire to survive is still very high.

Li Wan and Ling Zhi didn't listen to licking the dog and kneeling and licking, and followed the blonde beauty to see Andy.

Andy sat behind his desk, with the rice flag and the southern African flag hanging on the wall behind him, this was the first time Li Wan and Ling Zhi had seen the southern African flag.

"Please be seated—" Andy didn't get up, just raised his hand.

"Thank you." Li Wan and Ling Zhi sat down on the chairs opposite the desk, both of them sitting on half of their buttocks.

"You are all smart people, I won't talk nonsense, do you know about the situation in Medan?" Andy got straight to the point, everyone was quite busy and didn't have time to go around in circles.

Li Wan and Ling Zhi both nodded, Li Wan came a little later and came for many years, Ling Zhi is a native of Medan at all, his ancestors came to Medan, and he knows the situation in Medan very well.

"Very good, let me first explain that the Adan company is different from the Dutch, the Dutch are understaffed and the national strength is weak, so they have to rely on the king of the earth to rule the East Indies, our Adan company does not need it, you should know that we have been immigrating from the Qing Dynasty in southern Africa, and there are also many Chinese here in the East Indies, so we don't need to rely on the king of the earth, these kings must all be cleared, and those half-hearted Chinese farmers, maybe you are not used to the way our Adan company works, it doesn't matter, you can slowly get used to it." Andy is decisive, the biggest advantage of the Chinese is the population, when there are many people and there is little land, the population is a burden, and when there are few people and there are many people, the population is the advantage.

Li Wan and Ling Zhi were both a little shocked, the traditional Chinese pay attention to subtlety, with the royal way to subdue the Quartet, the East Indies Chinese have lived under the colonial rule of the Dutch for a long time, most of the time to swallow their anger, cautious, never so high-profile publicity.

However, when the situation was still unclear, he dared to stand up and join Adan Company, Li Wan and Ling Zhi are not ordinary people, especially Li Wan, compared with the older Ling Zhi, Li Wan's attitude is obviously more radical.

"Great, I've had enough of it, doing a business is exploited by the Dutch every day, endless taxes of all kinds, a business runs down, the money earned has not paid more taxes, those soil kings are also bastards, picking on us Chinese, it is a person who can bully us Chinese-" Li Wan scolded when he mentioned the Dutch, it is estimated that he has suffered a lot over the years.

"We also have to pay taxes here-" Andy poured cold water, taxes are the root of life, both the Dutch and the Adan company attach great importance to it.

Of course, Adan certainly doesn't collect as much tax as the Dutch, at least the "ass tax" is such a thing, and it can't afford to lose that person.

"Then I'll admit it, at least leave it to our own people, it's better than the cheap bastards." Li Wan's fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders.

"Mr. Andy, our East Indies Chinese have been bullied by the Dutch for too long, in the past, we Chinese accounted for half of the East Indies, but now we are less than thirty percent, Ling is not talented, and there is a little floating wealth in the family, I would rather go bankrupt than give us East Indies Chinese a bright future." Ling Zhi is old and knows what Andy wants.

"Don't worry, our lord has never treated his own people badly, maybe you don't know, the Chinese that the lord brought to southern Africa, now all of them are landlords, and they are living a good life, and it is the same in our East India, Adan Company needs money, but it will never pit its own people, those soil kings are also very rich, find a way to let them take it out-" Andy has a way to make money, and everyone thinks about robbing the rich and helping the poor.

These native kings of the East Indies are actually the former tribal chieftains, or the kings written in the history books, these tribes or countries are not big, and there are deep contradictions between them, and conflicts still often break out.

The main reason why the Dutch were able to occupy the East Indies was that the East Indies did not form a unified state, and the various tribes did not unite and could not form a joint force.

After the Dutch occupied the East Indies, they did not change this situation, and in order to facilitate the rule of the Dutch, the Dutch did not even impose the Dutch language in the East Indies, because they were afraid that the various tribes of the East Indies would unite and affect the rule of the Dutch.

Adan Company does not have this concern, there are many Chinese in the East Indies in this era, just like Ling Zhi said just now, the Chinese once accounted for half of the total population of the East Indies, so the Dutch would be so jealous of the Chinese.

Unlike the Dutch colonial government, the Chinese are the natural allies of the Adan Company, don't underestimate farmers like Ling Zhi, there are a large number of Chinese on the plantations in the East Indies, and organizing these Chinese is a huge force, and it is actually easy to drive out the Dutch.

"I'm afraid they won't take it—" Ling Zhi didn't know how far Adan could go.

"It's not easy to find a reason?" Andy laughed dumbly, Ling Zhi was probably not used to being a villain.

It doesn't matter, there is always a process of adaptation from obedient people to rulers, and the Chinese in the East Indies have been silent for too long, and it will take time for them to change for a while.

"Those earth kings have thugs-" Li Wan is more on the road, but there are also practical difficulties.

"I'll give each of you a hundred people, and you have to form a force when you go back-" Andy was generous, this hundred people were not only the backbone of the troops, but also to protect Li Wan and Ling Zhi.

In the current situation in the East Indies, some people are willing to take refuge in the Adan company, and there must be people who have been under the rule of the Dutch for a long time and are accustomed to being obedient to the people.

"We don't have weapons—" Ling Zhi also understood the truth that power came out of the barrel of a gun.

"Don't worry about this problem-" Andy smiled, and didn't dare to say, the weapons were enough, as many as they wanted.
