Longqi 1924

Chapter 522 Big deal!

Rooney picked up the coffee cup and siped, "Yorke, you are still serving in the army now. I heard that you are a major now?"

"Uh-huh, no matter what, I've been here for more than ten years, and the rank of this major is not very high." York's words were relaxed, but the arc at the corners of his mouth exposed the pride of his heart.

Rooney shook his head and smiled, "Come on, at least we used to be colleagues in the army. I still know the gold content of you, a major. Especially for an outlying army like you who are stationed in the colony, the oil and water is even bigger! Am I right?"

"Well, this is the glory of the kingdom. We devout people are just enjoying the benefits brought to us by the kingdom." York picked up the coffee cup and gently motioned to Rooney, siping it.

"Yes, without the kingdom to give us such a coveted colony, how can we enjoy everything now, cheers for the glory of the kingdom!" Rooney was a little excited to see his old friend he had not seen for many days.

"Did Rooney hear that you are now the tax officer of Surya? This is a very oily position!" York said with a smile.

Rooney's eyes shrank, and he recognized the strange tone of his old friend: "What? Dude, what do you think?

"Ha ha, what can I think? I just see that there are dirty oriental monkeys everywhere. I'm a little worried about you!" York said lightly.

Rooney's erratic eyes finally looked at him. He stared at the old friend in front of him for a long time and suddenly laughed: "My brother's eyesight is really extraordinary. I can see at a glance that this Surawase city and even the Java Island are the biggest hidden worries of our Dutch kingdom!"

He took a big mouthful of the cigar in his hand. Rooney looked out of the spacious window of the coffee shop and shook his head and said, "This period is the New Year for the local Chinese people. As you can see, there are Chinese people gathered everywhere. Their existence is indeed a big concern for us!"

"Yes, on the way here, I probably calculated that it's almost 100,000 yuan for the Chinese in Surabaya City tonight. It's really unimaginable! I've been thinking that if these Chinese people make damage, the consequences will be unimaginable!" York said calmly, but his somewhat plain tone made people unable to believe that it was full of murder.

Rooney raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "My brother seems to feel more than I, a person who lives here. Tell me, what do you think?"

York smiled: "It's really my old friend. Just listening to my simple beginning, I know that I have something to say to you."

Rooney didn't say anything, but his blue-brown eyes stared at his old friend. Obviously, he was very curious.

"You know, our Marines have always followed the kingdom's warships all over the world and have seen a lot of things. Although there are not many colonies in our kingdom, I know that as you just said, these seemingly barren places are actually extremely rich. So...you know..."

Rooney's eyes lit up, and he finally understood what his old friend meant: "Yorke, you mean..."

"Shh" York stretched out his index finger and said, "I can see that you are also an old man. Since you have been in this Surat for so many years, you must know a lot about the connections here. So, I think that as long as we are thoughtful and well-designed, we may make a lot of money!"

Rooney held back the excitement in his heart and hesitated, "Jock, this matter is not a small matter. Once it is exposed, it will be discredited! We must not act rashly! Oh, by the way, how long can you stay in Surai City this time? Such a confidential matter will take time!"

"Don't worry, we are following the Empire's supply ship this time. According to the plan, we will stay in Surat for two or three months, which is enough!" York looked completely confident.

"Well, that's good. Let's go. There are a lot of people here. Let's find a place to make a good plan. Ha ha, I didn't expect that it's not easy to meet the old friend to have such a big cooperation. I'm really excited to think about it!"

York raised the coffee cup in his hand and smiled, "That's right. If I hadn't known that you were like a fish in water in this Surai Water City, I wouldn't have thought of such a good thing that we could make a fortune together. It seems that this is all the fate of our brothers!"

Rooney smiled and said, "Okay, if I can do a big job with York in this faraway place of the emperor, I will really tremble all over when I think about it!" Let's mourn for those poor sheep!"

Chen Jiaju stood on the cargo ship that was about to enter the port, looking at Suraya City, a very famous gathering place for Chinese in Nanyang.

At this time, the Spring Festival had just passed. Chen Jiaju was originally going to carry out the reorganization of Zhongyi Hall, but an unexpected episode interrupted his plan and made his attention turn to Suraya, a place that he ignored.

The wife of Wu Ming, the chairman of the Kujin Autonomous Committee, who went to visit his relatives in Suraya City, Java Island a few years ago, was actually kidnapped during the first month. Together with her, several famous large families in Suraya City were kidnapped. This situation naturally made Wu Ming, who was at a loss, ask Chen Jiaju, the king of Kujin, for help.

After listening to Wu Ming's story, Chen Jiaju's first reaction was that there seemed to be a lot of fame. Mrs. Wu was not alone and was held hostage by a thieves. At the time of the incident, she was accompanied by several guards.

Chen Jiaju is thinking that things are indeed a little strange. According to the information feedback from his intelligence system, there seems to be no strong armed force among the local people.

After thinking for a long time, he finally decided that the matter must be solved immediately. This is not only about his current friendly alliance, but also the family safety of Wu Ming, the chairman of his comrades's self-committee in the future. It seems necessary for him to start to make a layout in a well-developed Chinese gathering place like Java.

Looking at the staggered private houses in Suraya City from afar, Chen Jiaju sighed in his heart that this is the Suraya City where there are frequent anti-Chinese and anti-Chinese history!

In addition to the massacres created by the Dutch to show off their power on this land and to maintain their own rule, the Indonesian indigenous people who gained the rule of Java in later generations also repeatedly raised butcher knives to the Chinese.

Whether it is the massacre of at least half a million Chinese people in Indonesia, which was angry with the Chinese because of the failure of its own coup in 1965, or the massacre of at least half a million Chinese people, or the Indonesian Chinese exclusion and massacre against the Chinese in the Chinese world at the advent of the Internet era in 1998, It all shows how miserable and helpless the Chinese are in this place where the Chinese have worked hard for it.

Chen Jiaju knows that since he wants to fight for the national liberation of the vast number of Chinese people in Nanyang, he must solve all these potential hidden dangers that have happened and have not yet happened. We must not let the tragic fate of the Chinese in this scene happen again in front of his eyes!
