Xiao Feng really didn't expect that Li Xingkai actually guessed what he was thinking.

In fact, the destruction of the Rico family and the robbing of so many assets did not make him very happy.

What really made him happy was accepting the two ports, docks, and warehouses from the Hernandez family.

Before the Hernandez family controlled these piers, it was natural to use them to sell flour like in the United States, but after Xiao Feng took over, he no longer planned to do that kind of business.

His original idea was to build a railway between the two oceans, but that was just an idea.

But when he later learned that the Panama Canal is a toll standard, his idea of ​​building a railway here became stronger.

The toll for passing a ship can easily cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Is this shit obviously a steal?

Of course, the Panamanian government would not dare to be so black if there is no support from the Americans.

Don't look at the fact that the United States claims to have exchanged the Panama Canal to the Panamanian government, but who doesn't know that the Panama government is actually a puppet of the United States.

The Panama Canal is still under the control of the Canal Management Committee.

The Panama Canal was first built by the legendary American banking tycoon JP Morgan, who raised $40 million and employed 80,000 laborers.

In those days, $40 million was almost equivalent to $40 billion today.

Of course, the United States also gained enough benefits from this canal later, from 1914 when the canal was completed to 1974 in the last century for 65 years.

The canal has always been in the hands of the Americans, and it was only handed over to the Yunhe Management Committee jointly established by the United States and Panama in 1974, but in fact it is mainly the Americans who have the final say.

Later, when Noriega came to power in 1983, after this old man came to power, his attitude towards the United States has not been very friendly. He once encouraged the domestic people to take back the Panama Canal.

This touched the backlash of the Americans. As a result, in 1989, the local government of the United States actually imposed a drug trafficking charge on the president, directly launched an invasion, arrested the president, and overthrew the Panamanian regime.

In this way, the Americans once again firmly controlled the Panama Canal, and it was not until 1999 that they signed an agreement with the Panamanian government to transfer the management of the Canal back to Panama.

But in fact, behind the existing Panama Canal Management Company, the major shareholders are Americans.

Otherwise, do you think that the Panama Canal has the courage to charge hundreds of thousands of dollars to cross the river?

A standard 10,000-container cargo ship usually costs US$780,000 to pass through the canal once. In the Suez Canal, the price is at least hundreds of thousands of US dollars cheaper than the Panama Canal.

This is the main reason why many domestic cargo ships would rather go around the Suez Canal than the Panama Canal when returning from South America in the Atlantic Ocean.

Moreover, the Panama Canal is still controlled by the Americans, and it is very vulnerable to political factors. It is too troublesome to board the ship for inspection and arrest the ship at every turn.

In particular, what Xiao Feng plans to do in the future is Venezuela's oil business, and now Venezuela is still on the sanctions list of the United States.

To transport oil through the Panama Canal, it is estimated that the ship of the Maoxiong country dared to swagger through it, and the Panamanians did not dare to make things difficult.

If it is your own ship, I am afraid that it will inevitably be engaged by the Americans.

After much deliberation, it was the most cost-effective to build a railway.

However, Xiao Feng only had a preliminary idea of ​​the railway construction plan from Apartado to Puerto Jurado. If this plan is actually implemented, there are still many joints that need to be opened up.

These two ports, located in the provinces of Córdoba and Choco in Colombia, want to build a railway with these two ports,

People in the local political circle must agree, otherwise the plan will be difficult to start.

The other is the Columbia Western Railway Company, which is the only railway company in Colombia. The railway in this country is very unique.

It has been hundreds of years since the founding of the country, but the railway mileage is pitifully small, that is, from the port of the Caribbean Sea, it has been extending inland, passing through Medellin, Bogota and other cities.

The railway network of the whole country is a thin and elongated oval, without much thinking about other regions in the country.

And this railway company was originally state-owned, until the 1970s, after the country implemented privatization, this company fell into the hands of the Jurado family.

But later it changed hands several times and became a joint-stock company with many shareholders.

In the past ten years, the company's operating conditions have been neither good nor bad. Now Li Xingkai has acquired this company and has become the company's major shareholder.

And he also knows the congressmen of those two provinces. From this point of view, this guy is really good at it!

Xiao Feng looked at Li Xingkai with a smile, and Li Xingkai also looked at Xiao Feng with a smile.

"I have to admit that you are really talented. Well, tell me first, how did you know that I want to build a railway between these two ports?"

About this point, Xiao Feng was very curious.

Li Xingkai pointed to his head: "Of course it's observation!"

"I have been collecting information about you before, but judging from the collected information, you are a businessman doing legitimate business, until when you helped the Chen family in Tongguo, suddenly there were many Russians around you. And now in South America, which country has the most Russians? Of course Venezuela!"

I have to say that this guy's analysis of things is really clear.

"I hate to know about the situation in Venezuela. They are so poor that they can't help themselves. How can they pay Mao Xiong's wages? There is only oil, but the quality of their oil is not high, and Mao Xiong is a country that does not lack oil. , so even if Mao Xiong gets the oil, he will definitely find a way to dispose of it. Considering the principle of proximity, the only friend who can help them deal with the oil is you."

After listening to Li Xingkai's analysis, Xiao Feng kept nodding his head frequently.

"Since you have already guessed this, why don't you report it like an American?"

The Americans are very powerful in South America. They are sanctioning Venezuela. If Li Xingkai reports to them, Xiao Feng is secretly doing Venezuelan oil business.

Then it would definitely attract sanctions from the US, even if Xiao Feng did not directly do business with the Venezuelans, that would not work, the long-arm jurisdiction of the Americans is so domineering.

But Li Xingkai shook his head after hearing this: "Who am I? I was already on the blacklist of the Americans! Besides, why should I report like the Americans? I wish more people would poach the corners of the Americans! "

"Oh? Judging from your tone, you seem to be very dissatisfied with the Americans?"

"Haha, indeed, I have been dissatisfied with them for more than a day or two. If you have a mother who died at the hands of the American police, and the last policeman was only given a light sentence, you must be dissatisfied. If you When you were in middle school, you were always the target of bullying, and you will be dissatisfied with the United States!"

Looking at Li Xingkai's distorted face, Xiao Feng knew that this must have touched some of this guy's unbearable memories.

Originally thought that this guy grew up in the United States, and he would be very fond of the United States. I didn't expect him to have such an unbearable past in the United States.

This can also explain why he did not report himself like those institutions in the United States.

"Then let me ask another question. It seems that you have no objection to cooperating with me. I really want to know why?"

"Why? If I don't cooperate with you, will you let me go?"

Xiao Feng shook his head with a smile, and Li Xingkai shrugged his shoulders: "Isn't that enough? Besides, I really don't like those guys like Li Fei and the others, because among the people who bullied me since I was a child, they are the two brothers. "

In the end, Li Xingkai's face became serious again. It seems that even if they are cousins ​​with Li Fei, they are not right!

"Okay, if you were asked to take charge of the construction of this railway, what would you do?"

"First of all, I will ask people to arrange for the people of these two places to go to the parade..."

"Forehead?"

Xiao Feng was taken aback when he heard this, and Li Xingkai shrugged his shoulders: "You know, the employment situation in these two places has not been very good, and many people have no jobs. It is not so easy to go fishing now, so many people are in Hungry."

About this point, Xiao Feng still knows, so the labor in these two places is very cheap.

"Then I will contact the two congressmen in the name of the railway company. I will arrange for the railway company to propose a railway construction plan, buy land, hire workers, and the councilor will speed up the approval of the project. At most three months, this matter can be completed It's done."

It seemed that Li Xingkai was very confident about this matter. Xiao Feng frowned. Did he know that the Colombian government was virtuous and efficient.

It can even be said that the kind of success is more than failure. You want to do something, but before you start, a group of vocal opponents will jump out and argue with you every day.

As for the construction of the Trans-Oceanic Railway, there will definitely be many pro-American congressmen who will jump out to oppose it, but in Li Xingkai's view, it seems that this is not a difficult task.

And Li Xingkai was like a roundworm in Xiao Feng's stomach at this moment. Although he didn't say anything, Li Xingkai already guessed what he was worried about.

"Haha, those congressmen and officials, you don't have to worry too much, because many of them are my clients. Even if they are not my clients, I still have ways to catch their pigtails."

It turned out to be like this! Xiao Feng smiled and nodded.
