Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

After making arrangements for the garrison in the Falkland Islands, Admiral John Federhouse prepared to lead the task force back home. But now there is a troublesome thing. A ground-effect aircraft is seriously injured. Now it can only sail on the sea and cannot fly at all. But as the exclusive combat tool of the troops stationed in Hong Kong, the people and the Queen wanted to see it.

This kind of aircraft cannot be repaired in the UK, so it can only be repaired by towing it to the Xiangjiang Heiyun Group. This will increase the cost a lot and may also shorten the service life of the aircraft.

In the end, after discussion, they were allowed to go to the UK first and let the Queen and the people appreciate it before dragging them back to Hong Kong. Even if the finances are in difficulty, this money cannot be saved.

At this time, only three engines of the injured Xiangjiang Monster ground-effect aircraft could work normally, and the power was less than half of normal. For safety reasons, a tow rope was placed below, allowing it to be towed by other ships to the UK even without power.

This time, the Black Cloud Group can be said to have fully cooperated with the British war effort, and was sanctioned by Argentina for this reason. Bao Zixuan was also invited to participate in the victory celebration, but he was excused because he could no longer compete with the soldiers for the limelight.

Nothing good will come of going to England at this time, because the war is here. The UK's fiscal deficit must be staggering. One billion pounds has already been spent. What if the British see that you still have money and ask you to invest in the UK? Can people in London refuse so easily?

Austin-Dupont found it incredible to see the man in front of him dare to refuse the invitation of the Queen of England. Even the DuPont family would not dare to make such a move. This is the Queen of England, one of the oldest royal families in the world, who has huge influence all over the world.

Austin-Dupont: "Isn't it too disrespectful for you to refuse the Queen's invitation like this?"

Bao Zixuan admired this woman a little at this time, how much he loved letting her stay with him regardless of how much she stayed like this for several months. They talked about the sports car several times, but Bao Zixuan used words to talk them out. Now that he is wasting his time here, Richest Man Bao becomes more and more unable to understand women.

Bao Zixuan: "Heiyun has contributed enough, and it was inevitable that he would have to contribute money in the past. No matter how much money I have, I can't spend it like this! This is a bottomless pit, and people can't really think that it is natural to come to you to withdraw money."

The Iron Lady is coming to Hong Kong soon, and negotiations between China and Britain on the Hong Kong issue are about to begin. Although the funds are already sufficient, it seems to Bao Zixuan that it is still not enough. His goal this time is very big; it is so big that Heiyun will not be able to make large-scale investments in the next few years.

Paulson-Bute asked about the opinions of Heiyun's specially recruited employees, hoping that they could stay in the army; but to his disappointment, none of Heiyun's 30 employees were willing to stay. Originally, I wanted to take the things back to Xiangjiang directly. After all, a lot of Argentinian things were seized, and we could go back together with the cargo ship. Now that he knew that the Queen was going to receive them, he stayed on a trip back and forth to the UK. Heiyun's treatment was so good, so of course it was impossible for him to stay in the army and continue to serve.

The task force began its mighty voyage to Britain, with many fewer warships than when it arrived. Two Sheffield-type anti-aircraft destroyers alone were sunk, and many other small ships were sunk in this sea area.

However, the morale of the British soldiers was quite good, and they won the victory in three months; at least it was faster than they imagined.

At this time, Paulson-Butt was in the cockpit of the ground-effect aircraft and asked Heiyun employees what he should do next. In fact, he knew that he was asking Bao Zixuan for advice. It's just that no one said it clearly. After all, if people knew that they could reach out to the military, they wouldn't be cut off.

Paulson-Bute: "Hahn, what should I do when I return to the UK? You can give me some advice. After all, the future is still very unclear."

Hahn is the engineer of the Black Cloud ground-effect aircraft, although he is British. However, he grew up in Xiangjiang and attended university in the United States. His family is all in Xiangjiang, making it impossible for him to leave this land easily. Hahn's current identity is more like the captain of a 30-man team, because Bao Zixuan communicates many things to this side through him.

Hahn: "I suggest you not to go back to Xiangjiang. With your military exploits, you will definitely be promoted and reused. You can stay in the UK to accumulate contacts and resources, which will be very beneficial to your future development in the military."

"You are from the Duke of Bute family. Don't care about the immediate gains and losses. You have earned enough fame, and you can compensate the soldiers and their families financially. After returning to the UK, put down your work and place the injured soldiers in good condition. At the same time, Go visit the relatives of the soldiers who died in the war.”

"In short, if you want to make a big difference in the army, you have to give up something. As long as you have power, it is never difficult to get money. We can sponsor some if necessary, but you must not take some money."

Paulson-Bute knew that taking money from them was equivalent to taking money from Bao Zixuan. It was not a glorious thing for an active officer of the British Empire to ask a businessman to take money. Then you won't even dare to say anything harsh in front of others. Now it seems like you don't have enough money, so you might as well get some from your family. If you want your subordinates to work for you, you have to give something.

After sailing at sea for half a month, the task force finally returned to Portsmouth, England; this is the home port of the British Royal Navy.

Today's Portsmouth Military Port can be said to be crowded with people, and the enthusiastic people want to appreciate the style of the imperial soldiers. Everyone wanted to take a first look at the legendary Major Paulson Butt.

The Queen of England and her husband also came to the military port to greet the victorious soldiers, including their sons.

As the Commander-in-Chief of the Task Force, John Federhouse came to the Queen and his wife and said: "Dear Her Majesty the Queen, the Commander-in-Chief of the British Empire Task Force, Royal Navy Admiral John Federhouse, led the fleet to return victoriously, and hereby expresses to you Return to life."

Queen: "Your Excellency General, you have worked hard all the way, and your victory was all due to the general's command and the bravery of the soldiers. On behalf of all the people of the British Empire, I would like to express my gratitude to you. It is precisely because of you that the British Empire can still stand at the top of the world."

Next, John Federhaus began to introduce the main officers and their achievements. This time is the most glorious moment for soldiers, and it is also the time for the public to understand their dedication. The British have a tradition that the most important person appears last.

After everyone in front had finished their introductions, John Federhaus said into the microphone: "Major Commander Paulson Bute of the 12th Battalion of the Royal Marines of the British Empire, the third son of the Duke of Bute, now 29 years old ; Unmarried. During the Falkland Islands Campaign, he captured South Georgia Island; he made a surprise attack on the Argentine Presidential Palace; he captured the Argentine Army Command Center in the Falkland Islands and captured the Argentine Army’s supreme commander alive.”

In fact, the purpose of introducing one's origin is the royal family, so that the people can see what the royal family and nobles do when the empire encounters crisis. The Duke of Bute is a veteran British aristocrat. Being able to send his son to the battlefield is admirable. Now he carries out such dangerous actions every time, which shows his courage. At least it can help people eliminate some misunderstandings about the royal family and the nobility.

The introduction of unmarried is John Federhouse's personal intention, just to let the public and young girls pay attention to soldiers. It is really difficult for soldiers to find girlfriends or get married.

John Federhouse's scheming was indeed in vain. The girls at the scene screamed when they found out that Paulson Butt was unmarried. This is a real-life knight, the bravest man in the British Empire. A good background and a strong figure can be said to be an ideal candidate for Prince Charming.

The celebration lasted for 3 hours before it ended, but what everyone found incredible was that the Queen and the Prime Minister finally discussed and decided to promote Paulson-Butt to the rank of Commodore of the Royal Navy of the British Empire. It can be said that this has not happened in the history of the British Army. Ren Nengou was promoted so quickly.

Just when the public wanted to appreciate the Brigadier General's splendor, what made people feel incredible was that Brigadier General Paulson-Butt actually disappeared, and his shadow could not be seen at many high-class balls. It's incredible that a young man can keep his heart. Everyone wants to know what our brigadier general is doing.

Paulson-Bute accepted Hahn's suggestion and began to visit the homes of soldiers who died in the war. He gave all the rewards he received to their families. It can be said that the British military had not issued pensions at this time, but Butt had already Walked ahead of them.
