Chapter Eleven The Big Boss

  Lin Huo's actions were swift, even feeling a bit impatient, which can be seen from her ruthlessly abandoning her beloved Versailles rose and then taking leave of school.

  "We don't have to rush, do we?" Yang Feng said hesitantly as he was pulled onto his yacht by the usually laid-back young woman. He wasn't quite used to her efficiency. As someone who handled millions of things every day - or more accurately, millions of dollars - it didn't seem like a good time to run off to Sweden, especially since his reputation as a divine doctor had spread far and wide, even attracting patients from countries like Germany and Austria who came all the way to London seeking treatment.

  "Don't you want to meet my family sooner?" Lin Huo Ke looked at him with a pitiful expression, her beautiful big eyes staring at him.

  "Of course, how could I not? I'm eager to tell them about my feelings for you right now." Yang Feng wrapped his arms around her slender waist, speaking with tender affection as he gazed at Lin Luo's happy smile, a sly grin spreading across his face like a wolf.

  From the UK to Sweden, it takes several days, and for a lonely man and woman to be together on a small yacht day and night, if nothing happens, it's an insult to human nature. The first night, Yang Feng coaxed and cheated his way onto Lin Ke's bed, and I guess this little girl was also mentally prepared, otherwise she wouldn't have let him succeed so easily.

  A journey of over a thousand kilometers, Black Arrow, which had once run twenty-five sections at its fastest speed, took a whole week to complete under Yang Feng's deliberate slowdown. Of course, this was mainly because the two of them ran off to play in Holland for two days midway through. During this week, Yang Feng, who had been suppressed for several months, was finally satisfied.

  After arriving in Gothenburg, the two rushed to Lin Luo's home. This little girl's family history is quite ancient, and it is said that since the era when everyone gathered together to go pirating during the agricultural off-season, there has been a small manor on the outskirts of Gothenburg that looks quite gloomy. Although he was surprised by Yang Feng's arrival, Alfred, Lin Luo's brother, still didn't beat him up out of politeness. When he learned of Yang Feng's intentions, he wouldn't do so even more.

  "Mr. Eriksson, I have a series of investment plans in Sweden, with a total investment amount of no less than two million pounds." Mr. Yang said with a composed face, he really couldn't believe that the lion-like forty-year-old man in front of him was Lin Luoke's brother, as they not only differed in age by more than a decade but also had no common features in appearance.

  Yang Feng's investment amount also startled Alfred Eriksson, Lin Luo's brother. Two million pounds was a truly staggering sum, enough to buy an entire fleet, but he simply couldn't believe that the Chinese man in front of him had so much money.

  "Eriksen, you must be wondering why I have so much money, right?" Yang Feng immediately saw his suspicion.

  Eriksen smiled faintly, but with his beast-like face, the smile was somewhat eerie.

  "You should know this watch?" Yang Feng casually showed off the Hua Yu Da Flywheel on his wrist.

  "Are you that Chinese guy?" Erikson's eyes widened, after several months of speculation, the whole world already knew about the ten-block Sea-Gull Tourbillon, but he didn't expect that the owner of the watch was actually his sister's friend, this fact really made his head spin.

  Yang Feng smiled slightly with pride.

  Now Erikson had nothing to suspect, you know that these watches, each one's auction price is not less than ￡100,000, even if the commission and taxes for the auction house are deducted, this Chinese person in front of him also owns a fortune of no less than ￡1 million.

  No need for more than that, ￡500,000 would be enough to complete his projects and it wouldn't cost much to set up a factory in impoverished Sweden.

  "Firstly, I need an ironworks, preferably one that is already established and can be bought directly, for example, I am very interested in the Bofors-Gullsp?ng company. Then I will start a power systems company, I have a British patent for a diesel internal combustion engine, which I have also applied for in Sweden, but have not yet received a response. This company will only be built when I receive the Swedish patent."

  After the company is established, I will build a vehicle manufacturing plant that uses this internal combustion engine.

  Apart from this, I also intend to invest in the production of military equipment. I have several designs for military equipment that are ready to be patented. If they can be patented, they will be produced in Sweden.

  Apart from the arsenal, a shipyard will also be built. You should take a look at the vehicle I took this time, my engine can make a paddle steamer run to twenty-five knots, if you replace the paddle with a propeller, I believe it's easy to reach thirty-five knots." Yang Feng suddenly had an idea and continued: "In addition, I have also designed a new type of bearing, which will be produced in Sweden.

  SKF, a name that even Roosevelt was afraid of being sanctioned by, for this reason he had to tolerate Sweden always colluding with Little Xi.

  Eriksson was already stunned, and he didn't even hear the things Yang Feng said afterwards. You know, Sweden is not a powerful country now, if Yang Feng's plans are really implemented in Sweden, the national strength will be greatly enhanced.

  "Yang, I still have some influence in the National People's Congress. I believe all your patent applications will be approved as soon as possible here." He understood this point clearly, Yang Feng had said that these factories would only be built after obtaining patents.

  "Thank you so much! And there's something else, about Caroline and me, I'm sure you understand that we're already in a relationship now." Yang Feng glanced at Lin Xiao Ke's expectant gaze beside him, then spoke with a gentle expression.

  "At this point, I respect Caroline's own choice." Erikson said hastily, his sister had found such a rich husband, he was now delighted and didn't have time to be unhappy! Although Erikson looked like a beast, his mind was not as rough as his appearance.

  With that, things became simple. Under Erikson's introduction, Yang Feng formally entered Swedish high society as Caroline's fiancé. After learning about his purpose in coming to Sweden and his ￡10 million family property, especially after learning that he was a divine doctor and also the supplier of the recently popular jewelry, he simply became the darling of social gatherings.

  However, after he showed off his medical skills and easily cured a congressman's pneumonia, this guy was no longer just a darling. The daily activities of the mysterious oriental millionaire became the focus of newspaper attention. His romance with Caroline became the focus of countless tabloid gossip columns, especially since the People's Publishing House's "The Lord of the Rings" had also landed in Sweden, so the title of the mysterious oriental millionaire was added again.

  "Scientist, entrepreneur, divine doctor, and also a writer, my god, Yang, I really don't know how many more identities you have." Erickson said with an exaggerated expression of surprise.

  "A small achievement, I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants." Mr. Yang said humbly, but isn't that an understatement? He's not just standing on the shoulders of giants, he's practically standing on their foreheads.

  As for his patent applications, that was naturally a mere trifle. A big shot who was prepared to invest two million pounds in Sweden, not to mention that his patents were indeed all novel inventions, even if someone else had already applied for them, they still had to be given to him. There was no need to hesitate over this. Within just one week, Yang Feng obtained the patents for his diesel engine, tungsten filament lamp, and temporarily added double-row automatic centering ball bearings, automatic pistol, and 9mm Parabellum bullets in Sweden.

  At the same time, through Ericsson's connections, negotiations for the acquisition of Bofors also began. At that time, Bofors was just an old steel mill with its own gun and ammunition production department, but it wasn't doing well in terms of operations. The Swedish army had limited numbers, so they wouldn't need too much military equipment. Moreover, there were many other companies in Sweden doing the same thing, making it impossible to develop. Exporting was even more out of the question. In fact, even the Swedish Army's own guns were licensed productions of Mauser, without their own brand. The country's influence was too small, and exporting was not possible at all. This was not the Sweden of the Thirty Years' War era.

  The negotiations went relatively smoothly, although the original shareholders were quite greedy. After all, Yang Feng's series of big plans had already been widely publicized in the newspapers, and so many factories definitely needed a steel mill as their foundation. After some haggling, Yang Feng finally bought the Bofors-Gullsp?ng company for 1.5 million kronor and immediately renamed it Bofors.

  "Alfred, are you interested in cooperating with me? You also know that I won't be staying in Sweden for long, there are many people in the UK urging me to return. Here, I need someone to take charge specifically, merge your factory into Yang's Power Systems Company, and I'll give you 10% of the shares." Yang Feng said to Eriksson, after spending some time together, he was still quite satisfied with this guy's abilities, and he indeed needed a person in charge in Sweden, so why not let his own brother-in-law take care of it.

  "Why not?" Eriksson shrugged, his small factory barely scraping by, neither good nor bad, and in Sweden's current economic situation, it was difficult to imagine any development, otherwise he wouldn't be so interested in throwing himself into politics, and participating in Yang Feng's big plan would also be a great help to his position in the political arena.
