Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 48 Forming a New Team

   When leaving, Brigadier General Jackson was not with Fang Lang, but was stayed by Lieutenant General Chambers.

   "Jackson, the person you recommended is very good, I am very satisfied, and I will recommend him to General Marshall!"

  Brigadier General Jackson was also very satisfied. The candidate he recommended was favored by Lieutenant General Chambers. He said modestly:

   "It's all for the general's plan!"

   Chambers was very satisfied with Brigadier General Jackson's performance, and rarely asked his opinion.

   "What kind of destroyer do you think we should provide Brazil?"

As for what destroyer to provide to Brazil, there is still no conclusion. At this time, the most advanced destroyer in the United States must be the Keeling class. It is definitely impossible to provide such a destroyer to Brazil, which is not much in the US Navy. , after all, Brazil is not that important.

The main warship currently equipped by the U.S. Navy is the Allen Sumner-class destroyer, with a number of about 70 ships. It is an enlarged model of the Fletcher-class destroyer and the best destroyer in World War II until 1975. The year began to gradually retire from the US Navy. Many of them were resold to third world countries after retiring, and they did not completely withdraw from the stage of history until the 1990s.

  The Fletcher-class destroyers with the largest number are of course more than 170 ships. It was almost the 1970s that he began to gradually retire.

"If it is to be provided to Brazil, my suggestion is that the Fletcher class is enough. After all, this is our largest number of destroyers. It is obviously not in the interests of the United States to provide more advanced ones. If it is too backward, it will hurt Brazil. human emotions."

  Brigadier General Jackson is an American general after all, and it is impossible for him to be willing to provide the most advanced warships in the United States to Brazil, not even the British ally.

"Since we have the same ideas, I will send a telegram to the country to apply for dispatching a Fletcher class to the Brazilians. Since the Brazilians have a new type of destroyer, they must join our **** operation on the Atlantic route Come on. I hope our young captain friend can show us his ability. Otherwise, we won’t be able to find a better reason to continue supporting him in the later stage.”

   Lieutenant General Chambers took a deep breath of his cigar.

  At this time, Fang Lang, who returned to the Gilas, was calling his crew to his side one by one, having a one-on-one conversation, and asking if he would like to serve on the destroyer. After all, the destroyer was going to the front line, so he had to choose those crew members who were willing to fight with him.

  Although he has only been the captain of the Gilas for two months, many crew members have become his loyal fans no matter in terms of work ability or allowances for the crew.

  After an in-depth conversation, 20 crew members of the Gilas were willing to follow Fang Lang to serve on the destroyer, including the first mate de la Torre and the chief engineer Amar Reina.

   Obviously, 20 crew members are a drop in the bucket for a destroyer that needs more than 350 people. In the next few days, Fang Lang was busy interviewing various personnel every day, including the fifteen people on the list provided by de la Torre, and the personnel provided by Colonel Parisi.

   There are people led by Lieutenant Colonel Graham. It's a pity that Lieutenant Colonel Graham didn't know that he was an out-and-out **** in Fang Lang's mind now, and Fang Lang would never let his subordinates get in with him again.

  Finally, Fang Lang used Colonel Parisi to stuff the two hair boys he brought back from Sao Paulo into his team.

   And when Fang Lang formed a destroyer team for himself, in the cigarette factory in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Yang Zong and others finally made several unique flavors of cigarettes based on the ideas provided by Fang Lang.

   "Everyone try it out, these types of cigarettes, which one you think is the best!"

   There are five flavors of cigarettes in front of Yang Zong. They are all cigarettes of different flavors made by adding different spices according to the new production process.

  Several technicians in the factory were surprised after trying it out. They did not expect such a change in the cigarettes after such treatment.

   "It's amazing that this kind of smoke can produce a sweet taste!"

   "I don't like that sweet one, I like this one, it's mellow enough and has a long aftertaste."

   "But I like this fragrance type! It has a floral fragrance, it smells really good!"

   "This kind of rose smells better! I will only smoke this kind in the future!"

   "Don't you guys love the peppermint one! I bet it's going to be a hit!"

  Everyone discussed the different feelings of several different flavors of cigarettes. It was almost all positive reviews, which made Yang Zong very excited. He directly announced the success of the cigarette test, and began to readjust the production line and formulate a new production process.

  Following the guidelines left by Fang Lang, create the Lucky cigarette brand. Create new packs for each flavor of cigarettes and start organizing production.

  The acquired newspaper has also begun to re-typeset according to Fang Lang's guidance, and renamed it "Brazilian Times" and distributed it all over Brazil. In the early stage, it will be distributed to the government, major schools, hospitals, banks and other places in the form of free gifts.

  According to Fang Lang's guidance, Brazil Times often attracts customers with sensational headlines, and the actual content is no longer boring, which is very different from the current newspapers. Therefore, it will soon gain a firm foothold in Brazil, and as soon as Fang Lang's new printing machine purchased from the United States arrives, he can quickly occupy Brazil's public opinion position.

Although Brazil Times uses headlines to attract customers, it never has any political inclinations. It often tells news events in the form of storytelling, which surprised the Propaganda Department, which had just abolished censorship of books and newspapers, and began to focus on it. Follow the development of Brazil Times.

   Fang Lang, who was far away in Italy, finally built his team after repeated screening for about a week. Some special positions, such as radar, sonar and other arms that require relatively high professional skills, will be organized to go to the United States with Fang Lang to receive a one-month professional skills training.

   A group of 20 people took a US military transport plane to the east coast of the United States after several trips. Fang Lang and the new deputy captain de la Torre were sent to the West Point Military Academy in New York, USA for a one-month pre-job training.

   Other crew members were also sent to different locations to participate in corresponding job training. The training in the United States was mainly for some new technology arms such as radar, sonar, fire control, and turbines. Others studied in Italy on destroyers with the U.S. Navy.

  After arriving in New York, the United States, the United States Department of the Navy sent a special car to the temporary training class at West Point Military Academy. Because it was only a short-term training, no accommodation was arranged. Fortunately, Fang Lang had notified Wan Chongxin before departure, and rented a small apartment for the two of them near West Point.

  Because of the long journey, it took more than 30 hours. When they arrived in the United States, it was midnight, so after the two packed their luggage, they fell asleep directly.

  Early the next morning, while Fang Lang was still soundly asleep, Wan Chongxin had already knocked on Fang Lang's door.

"Boss, good morning! I brought you a special breakfast in Chinatown. I don't know if you have eaten it yet!" After Wan Chongxin entered the room, he put the oiled paper bag he brought over on the table and put the Take everything out.

   "I said Ashin! Are you so early every day?" Fang Lang glanced at the rising sun outside the window, and said in surprise.

   "That's definitely not the case. It's just that I haven't seen the boss for so long, and I have a lot of things to report to you. I'm afraid that you will have to go to class soon, so I can only come here to disturb you before your class."

   After finishing speaking, he pushed a breakfast in front of Fang Lang and said.

   "This is preserved egg porridge and fried dough sticks, do you want to try it?"

"Okay! I haven't eaten these things for a long time. Let's talk while eating!" Fang Lang looked at the breakfast in front of him, and he was not polite. He looked at De La Torre who heard the sound coming out of another room road:

   "Old De, this is my friend Ashin. Here is the breakfast he brought over, come and have a taste together."

  After the two nodded to each other, de la Torre sat directly next to Fang Lang, looked at the porridge pushed in front of Fang Lang, and ate it unceremoniously.

   He still made clicks from time to time, obviously very satisfied with this breakfast.
