In the office, Yan Shao was handling official business.

There are a lot of things that need to be dealt with by Yan Shao, such as the follow-up troops of the expeditionary force.

According to the plan of the Ministry of National Defense and Yan Shao, the size of China's expeditionary force to Europe should reach at least 300,000. In other words, this is definitely not a matter of one or two batches of troops, not to mention the number of personnel who have been replenished after being wounded, even if the scale of the expeditionary force approved by the National Social and Political Axe is only 300,000, the final number of additional personnel will probably reach 40 or 500,000.

After all, even if it is commanded by Cai Yi, there is no way to guarantee that none of his troops will die or be injured in Europe, and there is always a need for replenishment or something.

What's more, there are more than 700,000 people in the country, and it is impossible to send all of them to Europe, and the main division will go to a few, and the rest can only be formed by the reserve to form a new division to help, and the mobilization of the reserve force is also a headache.

In addition to these, a series of projects currently underway in China also need to be approved by Yan Shao.

In particular, the 'Seventh Five-Year Plan' has now entered a critical stage. Those projects that are relatively easy to solve have basically begun to be put into production now, although some are only small batches, but it is estimated that it will not take long to reach the maximum production capacity.

Even if it's a way to increase investment...

Some time ago, some of China's arsenals had exported a batch of equipment to Britain and France, and the response was very good, especially the wooden-handled grenades, mortars and light machine guns equipped by the Wehrmacht, which were equipped with large orders, in addition to the M1915 rifles commissioned by the French to China, the British also commissioned several arsenals to manufacture a batch of Lee Enfield rifles...

At present, the European side is in urgent need of all kinds of materials, even if the price is higher, Britain and France are willing to buy it, so there is no need to worry about increasing investment, which will lead to rising costs and losses...

After all, how to rise, considering the large gap between China and the United States, Chinese things are always cheaper than those in the United States...

In addition, now not only the second expeditionary force, but even the third group is also in preparation.

It's just that when there is already a batch, the time for the remaining two batches does not need to be so urgent, so the national social and political axe has more or less more time to prepare.

Having said that, Yan Shao is still a little busy every day, and even the time for running has to be squeezed out of his teeth a little...

"It's time..."

Sitting on the sand on the side, Otsuki Kaoru, who was looking at a magazine, looked down at the women's watch on her wrist, turned her head sideways to look at Yan Shao, and saw that Yan Shao was still there and was engaged in official business, so she stood up from the sand gently, for fear of disturbing Yan Shao. Then with the same gentle movements, he opened the refrigerator door and took out a glass of juice that had been frozen for a long time.

"It's not bad..."

Looking at the orange-yellow juice, Kaoru Otsuki showed a soft smile.

Yan Shao has always disliked things like alcohol, tea or coffee, only likes frozen ice water, or juice and the like. So in addition to pure water, what is put in the refrigerator is Yan Shao's favorite juice. At the same time, because Yan Shao likes to drink frozen juice, Elaline and Otsuki Kaoru even deliberately made a schedule to ensure that the juice put in the refrigerator will only just freeze some ice residues, and will not be directly frozen into ice cubes...

This kind of behavior is naturally a bit extravagant in the eyes of ordinary people, but when it comes to Yan Shao's current identity, it seems extremely ordinary, not to mention that compared with some other hobbies, this small hobby is already very ordinary.

By the way, the watch on Kaoru Otsuki's wrist is also produced by Yushi Group, which can be regarded as one of the products of diversification. And this kind of watch is also the only one in China that can be used on the wrist...

Not surprisingly, although clocks were made known many years ago, the world's first watch belonged to Countess Oscoicz. But this form of clocks was not popular at the time.

The promotion of this watch, which was very popular in later generations, was therefore postponed until the beginning of the twentieth century, and in 19o4, the French merchant Louis ? Francois? Cartier received pilot friend Alberto? Santos? Dumont's complaint: It was difficult to get the pocket watch out of his pocket when flying an airplane, and he was asked to help solve the problem so that he could see the time during the flight. So Cartier came up with the idea of tying a pocket watch to his hand with a belt and buckle to solve his friend's problem. And this pocket watch tied to the hand is today's watch.

It wasn't until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 that all parties realized the importance of 'hands-free' watches, which sparked the general public's eager demand for hand-worn watches.

Watches are a wonderful thing, cheap ordinary people can afford it, but it is expensive, but it is amazingly expensive. Among the many industries, luxury goods are definitely an industry with amazing benefits, and it is natural that Elanor will not let go of this industry.

This era is a very special era, and many of the most famous brands in later generations have either just been founded or have not yet been founded. For people in this era, these may be nothing, but for people in Yan Shao's era, this is an extremely strong business opportunity.

The same is true for the watch industry.

Although at this time in the market, there are already some old brands that have been founded for more than half a century, but the scale is not very large, after all, in this period, watches are not particularly luxurious objects, and the purchasing power of ordinary people can not support it, and with the support of a few rich people, even if there is some scale, the scale is pitiful. Industries such as watches, such as sports shoes, which are being operated by Yushi Group, may not be able to show until the purchasing power of the people in this era increases. As for the other brands, they are either new or have not yet been founded...

This is definitely a time full of business opportunities for Yan Shao.

By the way, those companies that left a reputation early in Yan Shao's era have either been acquired by Yushi Group, or have received a certain scale of investment and have a considerable number of shares, which naturally include many famous watch brands...

Even brands like Chanel have received some investment from Yan Shao, and Yushi Group owns a 7o stake in the store.

And the reason why Yan Shao did this is because once when Yan Shao was attending a banquet, he once heard some young ladies who had just come from France talk about that in the Rue de la Cambon, No. 31, next to Place Vendôme in Paris, France, there is a very good shop pù, and that shop pù is Chanel's...

At this time, the First World War had broken out, and even Paris was under the threat of German fire, so it was obvious that similar luxury goods could not make a good profit. Because of this, Yan Shao's purchase of shares has become very smooth.

And because there is also a branch of the Yushi Group in Paris, it is very simple to carry out all the qiē.

However, although it is equivalent to buying, Yan Shao did not let Ilenor interfere too much with this kind of store pù, after all, no one knows whether this kind of store pù can still reach the historical Cheng dù after the intervention, so Yan Shao only provides financial support to these companies, but does not intervene in other aspects, this behavior naturally makes Ileno and many people feel a little puzzled, but the founders of those companies are very grateful for Yan Shao's trust and behavior.

And after these companies have received the support of Yan Shao, they have also been developed faster than in history.

If today's Yushi Group is already the world's largest business group, then when these brands grow, Yushi Group will become an unprecedented, huge business empire...

Yan Shao is even considering whether to buy a number of car companies, including Ford, General Motors, Rolls-Royce, Chrysler and Daimler. Although these companies are definitely among the most influential figures in the industry in later generations, in this era, under the suppression of Yushi Group, they have some meaning of lingering.

But in Yan Shao's view, these are only temporary, as long as you understand the status of these car companies in the future generations, no one will doubt their strength.

They will be like this, just because Yan Shao has taken the path that Ford has walked in history, and has gone a little further than he did...

Historically, Ford's simple structure, coupled with the huge production capacity brought by the 'assembly line', made it the first automobile empire in human history, and thus once accounted for more than 50% of the world's car sales.

It's a pity that Ford is too stubborn to think that people are only satisfied with the simple structure of the car, and ignore the original surname of leisure and hard work.

When you don't have money, you only need cheap cars, even if it's simple. But when life is better, it is natural that they will start to pursue those cars that are cheaper, but have better surnames...

So Ford was abandoned...

Although Ford was later called a giant in the automobile industry, compared with his early position, it was still a little too bad...

And Yushi Group, because it has not followed the road that Ford once walked, has developed extremely fast, and now its global share has even reached 70%, which can be described as the overlord of the automobile industry.

But Yan Shao also knows very well that this situation cannot continue forever.

After all, no one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes all the time, and the most important treasure that Yushi Group relies on today is actually the 'assembly line', but the patent right of this thing is also limited. When the time comes, other car companies will naturally start to work hard...

At that time, it is absolutely impossible for Yushi Group to bless such a large market share now.

So instead of trying to find a way to deal with threats from other companies, it's better to buy them now and let them become a member of the Yushi Group...

At present, these companies are struggling under the pressure of the Yushi Group, and if they want to buy them, now is the best time...

Otherwise, you'll have to spend a lot of money...

At present, Yushi Group is negotiating with Ford and GM and other companies in this regard, and many companies have a tendency to compromise, after all, the status of Yushi Group in the automobile industry is unshakable...

Seventy percent of the world's market is occupied by Yushi Group, and the remaining 30 percent is divided by other car companies. Coupled with the profit-seeking surname of businessmen, they are group capitalists after all, and in addition to dreams, they are more for profit...

So after the Rain Stone Group began to contact them, there were many people who were willing to compromise...

As long as these people can be included, at least in the next 30 years, Yushi Group will not have any threat in the automobile industry, or even ......... Longer...

After all, these characters who can create a car kingdom that will be important in later generations are not easy to appear in any era...

As long as these people are gone, the hidden dangers will naturally be gone.

Even if there are a few fish that slip through the net, it won't cause much trouble―――――― from a certain point of view, if Yan Shao has reached this point, and his descendants can still make people reverse from a desperate situation, then they are too wasteful, even if there is something, they deserve it...

――――――――――――――――――――

A cup full of juice was brought to Yan Shao's table, looking at the juice still floating with ice residue in the cup, Yan Shao glanced at Da Yue Kaoru, and then nodded slightly. "Thank you..."

After saying that, Yan Shao refocused his attention on official business, and Otsuki Kaoru was used to it, so he didn't say anything more, just sat back on the sand.

But it didn't take long for Yan Shao to be busy with official business, and the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

In the originally very quiet space, a series of bells suddenly sounded, and you can imagine how scary this situation is. Fortunately, Yan Shao didn't read any horror novels at this time, otherwise he might even be scared out of heart disease by this ringtone.

Frowning slightly, Yan Shao picked up the phone.

However, after listening to it for a while, Yan Shao, who was still frowning slightly, suddenly relaxed his brows.

"It's already there..."

After hanging up the phone, Kaoru Otsuki looked over and said with some doubts.

"What's coming?"

"Fleet...," Yan Shao said with a smile. The fleet carrying the expeditionary force has arrived in Marseille, and we can finally breathe a sigh of relief..."

Hearing Yan Shao say this, Otsuki Kaoru's face also showed a hint of joy. After throwing the magazine on the sand, the whole person stood up from the sand, and then walked to Yan Shao's side and asked. "Really?"

"Of course it's true..."Yan Shao laughed. We were worried that they would not be intercepted by the Germans on the way, but now we are all relieved..."

"That's it..."Hearing Yan Shao say this, Otsuki Kaoru also breathed a sigh of relief. That's just great..."

In fact, it's not just her, and I don't know how many people are concerned about the safety of the fleet during this time. After all, on that fleet, which consisted of dozens of ships, was loaded with tens of thousands of expeditionary officers and soldiers.

It can be said that almost every day, I don't know how many people crowd in front of the doors of major newspapers, just to know something about the expeditionary force.

It's a pity that at present, except for the usual telegrams to the country every day, the expeditionary force rarely has contact with the country the rest of the time, let alone those uncrowned kings.

Although there are some reporters in the fleet, there are also some reporters who go out with the army, but there is no radio, and no matter how many things they record, they cannot return home. Therefore, in the huge China, except for the national social and political axe, no one knows about the situation of the expeditionary force.

Of course, the same is true of the Germans ...

Moreover, since China declared war on Germany and other Allied powers, the Secret Service has also carried out some operations to arrest a number of Germans in the country, including some German legations and consulates.

After China declared war on Germany, the German embassy in China was not closed, but it was also under surveillance. The Germans, on the other hand, took advantage of this opportunity to steal some intelligence from China...

The Germans arrested by the Secret Service were those who tried to obtain information about the expeditionary force from the hands of the national social and political axe. It's just that compared with the Secret Service, these people are too amateurish, and the Secret Service has already begun to stare at them in normal times, so as soon as they acted, all of them have been captured, and almost none of these Germans have slipped through the net...

In this regard, the German minister Marzan naturally carried out **, but the answer of the national social and political axe was also very simple.

"After the declaration of war, it would be reasonable to put all of you in a concentration camp, and now it is already done to you like this, and what happened some time ago was purely your own death..."

Marzan also knew very well that Yan Shao had indeed done his duty.

After all, in the case of the declaration of war between the two countries, Yan Shao only recovered one of Germany's rights and concessions in China, and the other was to cancel the unequal treaties of the past, and there was almost nothing else, and even the private property of the Germans in China was protected.

In this regard, some of the more arrogant Germans in Germany think that China does not dare to offend Germany, but Malzan knows very well that Germany may be very strong, perhaps much stronger than China, but it is absolutely the whims of the Germans to say that the Chinese do not dare to offend Germany because of this.

No matter how strong Germany is, what can it do with China from such a long distance.

What's more, after the end of this war, even if Germany really wins, in the case of such a big loss, I am afraid that there is nothing to do with Yan Shao.

Yan Shao will treat the Germans in China well, completely because he wants to leave some affection, so that no matter what happens in the future, even after meeting, it will be easier to talk, but if the country is really as reckless as in the past, I am afraid that it will not be far from the end of the German personnel in China...
