039 Royal Family Gift (2)
Lee Hwan felt it was time to think about the demand for natural minerals.
It is good to simply purchase real estate in some areas of the United States, but he thought that targeting Australia, the main production area, would be beneficial in many ways.
“Can I make contact with the British government?”
“British?”
“I need to buy some mines in Australia.”
“Well, there is nothing wrong with that. As long as you give them the right money.”
After all, it’s all about money.
It wasn’t too far from the day when Hana Lee Hwan would sit on the money cushion.
“Let’s make contact first.”
“Then why not first contact the royal family through Prince Ben-Herren, and then face the British?”
“Hmm, well then, let’s do it.”
“And maybe by the time we get the Springfield rifles, the British will come first, right?”
Lee Hwan agreed with his words.
“That’s right. How far have you been with research on guns and gunpowder?”
“The research on personal firearms is nearing completion.”
“Hmm, okay?”
“After all, the Nobel family had a deep knowledge of gunpowder. Without them, development would never have been possible.”
“Fufu, that’s right.”
“Isn’t it because of them that we can conduct research on the steel wire cannon designed by the president?”
Even if it is not yet at the level where high-purity TNT can be developed, it was only a matter of time if only Lee Hwan’s chemical formula was properly studied.
Lee Hwan tried to estimate how long it would take to make a high explosive detonator.
“When will we be able to build high-explosives that can fit in cannons?”
“If it’s a bomb for a small explosion, we already have it. One is also a safety issue… … .”
“Um, I see.”
If the safety issue is solved, it will be possible to measure any number of steel wire cannons, and it will be possible to modify the common firearms system in infantry warfare.
If that was possible, the Netherlands would have been able to destroy it in the first place, even if the neighboring powers threatened it.
“It seems like it could be finished within three months at most.”
“Three months! Okay. Let me wait.”
Joshua, who continued to pour out reports without a break, finally closed the report.
Lee Hwan handed him the land document and order document he received from the Dutch government today.
Joshua, who received the order document, smiled broadly.
“Huh! What is all this?!”
“It is a gift from the royal family. Should it be said that it is a reward for bringing in 1,800 people? Half of them applied for enlistment, so within the next five years, we will be able to train 100,000 troops.”
With more troops, the Netherlands will get richer and the East Stella Company will make a ton of money.
the next day.
Lee Hwan had a fairly busy day in Rietterkirk, inspecting the company and fulfilling the orders of his superiors.
Now he would have to go back to the sea to join the main force right away.
Peter Mouser and Henry Luger handed Lee Hwan a pistol.
With a flying hawk engraved on a black barrel and engraved in gold, this pistol is a revolver that fully utilizes the mechanism of the casing.
It was characterized by a rather large caliber and ample ammunition.
“This is the first pistol with the new white powder. The two of us put our heart and soul into making it as a tribute to the Lord.”
“Hey, you make guns like this!”
“I made this while praying for the safe return of the Lord. That is why we pride ourselves on the performance of the gun at its best.”
When I received this gun, I felt that the Mouser and Ruger families were submissive to Lee Hwan.
He smiled brightly.
“thank you. You made all these guns.”
“If it is for the president who believes in us and willingly risks his life for the company, what can we do? From now on, we will not sacrifice ourselves for the company and the boss until we die.”
It is also true that at first, there were too many concerns about Lee Hwan going around the battlefield.
However, since his past has made the people around him marvel, how can his employees not follow suit?
Soon after, Hannah Mouser, the eldest daughter of the Mouser family, approached Lee Hwan.
She handed me a vest and rope made of woven fabric and leather.
“I made it with my boss in mind. I heard that you often ride the watchtower, but I think you need something like safe equipment to get on the rope.”
“… … safety hook? Did you make all of this by hand?”
“Yes, yes. It took me three months to make it.”
Hannah had already come up with the concept of a safety ring and was committed to putting it on Lee Hwan.
Lee Hwan smiled brightly and accepted it.
“thank you so much. Thanks to that, I don’t have to worry about falling.”
“I’m glad you like it.”
“May I ask you a favor?”
“A request?”
“Can you work on making something like this safety hook into mass production? I think it would be good for construction workers to use it.”
“I know. I will do that.”
Lee Hwan felt very happy when he received the gift.
Joshua came to him with a big smile.
After greeting those around him appropriately, he informed Lee Hwan that a guest had arrived.
“I came from the Goldman family in Germany.”
“Goldman?”
“He is a Jewish financier.”
“… … financier?”
Peter Mouser went out to give an ambiguous explanation to Lee Hwan, who tilted his head.
“I heard it when I was in Germany. They used to manage the wealth of the Prussian royal family, but now the whole of Germany, as well as England, France, and even the Netherlands, seem to be in charge of managing them.”
“Then you must have a lot of money?”
“Not a lot. I know they are under strong pressure on the financial sector in London City.”
The people who built the Bank of England were Jews, and the people who built the financial district around London City and held money were also Jews.
Among such Jewish finances, the Goldman family could be said to be unparalleled.
‘Why do Jews ask me?’
Lee Hwan asked Joshua if he had anything to do with Ben Heren.
“Does today’s visit have anything to do with Prince Ben-Herren?”
“It doesn’t seem like that. It is true that the Ben-Herrens once partnered with the Jews to engage in commerce, but I know that their ties were cut off towards the end of the 17th century.”
“Hmm, okay?”
“Anyway, there is something I want to discuss about business, would you like to meet?”
Lee Hwan quietly fell in thought.
No matter how much I shook my head, nothing came to mind.
“What… … . Let’s meet first.”
“Yes, I understand. Would you like to see it at work? Or at the factory?”
“Let’s go to work.”
Lee Hwan is leaving the company tomorrow and going to the battlefield, but I decided to meet him for the first time because he wanted to just let the guests who had come at the most.

Mouser, Lee Hwan headed to the office with a pistol given to him by the Ruger family.
Joshua, who was following him, asked.
“Sir, I have one question.”
“Say it.”
“If the Jewish capital asks to hold your hand, will you do it?”
Yi Hwan knew very well about Jewish capital.
Although he did not know who the Goldman family was, he knew that the Jews were connected by a strong network and managed huge assets.
‘They are great capitalists. It is said that it is the center of finance that moves the world.’
It was making investments across European and American conglomerates as well.
Even investment finance and commercial finance giant capitals were almost entirely uninvested by Jews.
Is there any reason to join hands with them?
“I do not know. Should I think about it?”
***
that afternoon.
Lee Hwan sat down with Billion Shirleyburn, a member of the Goldman family.
Billian Shirleyburn is an old gentleman who is about 70 years old, and his posture is quite straight, so it looks like he’s been exercising quite a bit or has learned some martial arts.
Billian Shirleyburn exclaimed as he drank the Oriental tea Lee Hwan gave him.
“… … After all, the tea of the East is so much that Western countries do not dare to keep up. It is not a luxury more expensive than gold for nothing.”
“Since a guest has arrived, I have to give this much away. My name is a member of the traveling fleet.”
“Heh heh, that’s right. Well, given the scale of the traveling fleet led by the best merchants in the Netherlands, it is not surprising.”
“Anyway, I wonder why you came to me.”
Billian Shirleyburn smiled for a while, then pulled out a piece of stationery from the pocket of his suit and held it out.
The stationery had a seal engraved with a blue star pattern.
“Who sent it?”
“It was sent by Abraham Goldman, the master of the Goldman family.”
“Um, that’s right.”
As soon as Lee Hwan received the letter, he wanted to open it.
But he didn’t.
Lee Hwan secretly puts the letter in his pocket.
Billion tilted his head.
“Aren’t you looking right away?”
“If you really need to see it now, I will.”
“No, you don’t have to.”
“In the East, letters from important guests are read alone.”
“Ah, that’s right.”
Of course, there was no such custom.
The reason that Lee Hwan did not open the letter was to show that he was absolutely not a hasty act.
That intention seemed to have worked.
“You are cautious.”
“Am I?”
“The older you get, the first thing you see.”
“If you think so, thank you.”
“Anyway, you even came to my family, so you can eat and go.”
“no. There is a saying that the older you get, the lighter your butt is. I’ll just get up then. I also sent you a letter.”
“How can a person just let a guest come from a long way? Let’s go eat.”
“Hmm, is that okay?”
“In my hometown, this is called Jeong.”
“Jeong!”
“Now that this has become my home, I will call it the heart of Ritterkirk.”
Billion, who was quietly looking at Lee Hwan, smiled broadly.
“Heh heh, that’s it. I really can’t help it.”
“Let’s go. Even though it’s a simple dinner at our company, you won’t have any problems filling your stomach.”
The East Stellar Company had a pretty decent canteen.
There is one near the factory site and one at the headquarters, and when you turn around, you feel like your mother’s dining table.
There was so much road that Lee Hwan also went out to other places and remembered dinner at the head office.
When I opened the door of the restaurant, the smell of grilled sausages and savory potatoes vibrated.
“Tonight’s dinner looks like a stamppot for grilled sausages.”
“Ah, I know well. Isn’t that a good thing to eat in Holland? Sausage is also eaten a lot in Germany.”
“Then you won’t like it.”
“Sure. It’s been a while since I’ve tried a simple home-cooked meal.”
Would it be appropriate to describe it as being stuffed with potatoes?
This dish is one of Lee Hwan’s favorite home-cooked meals, which is a combination of a stamp that says mash in Dutch and a pot that means pot.
Lee Hwan liked to eat it with red pepper in it.
Because of this, he planted peppers after getting them from Bolivia, so Lee Hwan still has the taste of Koreans.
As Lee Hwan entered the restaurant, his admirers approached him and held hands.
“Hey, boss! I prepared red pepper powder, so eat it a lot.”
“Everyone is struggling today. I’ll make a separate drinking party later.”
“That’s all right, you’ll have to find a good girl somewhere and start a family. I think that will give us some peace of mind.”
“Haha, that’s a little later.”
No matter how downfall the feudal system may have been, there was a distinct class system in the Netherlands.
Nevertheless, Lee Hwan was really free to spend with commoners.
Shirleyburn, who had seen the scene for the first time, looked at Lee Hwan as if in surprise.
“I heard that he was ordained a nobleman, but he maintains a close relationship with the common people. You are really shy.”
“These are the people who have been with me through life and death. Wouldn’t it be more strange if there were flaws?”
