America 1919

Donnie said with a smile, "Carl called me earlier, our farm's sugarcane and grapes are almost unable to meet the production needs of Elwood Village. Next, we need to buy more land, and Margaret Mitchell is a good entry point. Her father has significant influence in Georgia, and if we can get in touch, it will be very beneficial for us!" Seeing that this matched her own speculation, Helen no longer inquired. At this time, old Woodruff walked over, holding a glass of champagne, and asked Donnie, "Donnie, are you satisfied with the arrangements for tonight?" Donnie expressed his gratitude, "I'm very satisfied, but it's a pity I have to leave here in a few days. Otherwise, I would really like to enjoy the rural scenery of Georgia!" Old Woodruff laughed loudly, "There will always be a chance. Whenever you guys are resting, come over, and I will definitely keep you company!" After exchanging pleasantries once again, they followed the normal course of the evening's events, and then Donnie took Helen back to the hotel. The next day, Donnie declined all invitations and, under the secret protection of bodyguards, he and Helen relaxed and strolled through the city of Atlanta. On the third day, Donnie and Helen boarded a train and left for Washington! Donnie's trip to Washington was also in preparation for the Apollo Chain's business matters. The establishment of the Apollo Chain meant the creation of tens of thousands of new jobs. First of all, a convenience store needs at least four people, two men and two women. With Donnie planning to open 2000 convenience stores for the first time, that means 8000 people are needed. Secondly, since convenience stores are being opened, United States Logistics will also need to increase in scale to cope with this situation. Even though United States Logistics is already large, an additional 3000 people will still be needed. That is why Donnie came to Washington! "General Pan Xing, in our plans, the first choice for recruiting female sales associates for the Apollo Chain is to recruit from relatives of veterans, such as their wives, girlfriends, sisters; we only need those veterans to provide proof for us. As for the male sales associates and employees of United States Logistics, naturally, we would recruit from among our veterans! As long as they are willing to take the job!" Donnie sat in the office of the Chief of Staff of the Army, discussing his plans with Pan Xing. Pan Xing looked at Donnie with a gentle gaze, feeling very grateful in his heart. Being the Chief of Staff of the Army after the war was not easy; during the war, they could take charge of military strategies and orders, but after the war, they had to face various tedious issues. Business partners from wartime would seek their help due to decreased orders. The arms race couldn't be ignored, and combined with various domestic political tasks and the resettlement of veterans, Pan Xing was already feeling extremely troubled. Now, the emergence of Donnie was like timely help in the snow for Pan Xing. Moreover, although Donnie was helping solve this problem, he wasn't like those detestable businessmen who, when spending a penny on themselves, expected to take a dollar's worth of benefits from the U.S. Army. As for Donnie, other than the Army purchasing oil from Pandora Oil Company, he couldn't offer any other help to Donnie! "Donnie, if all American businessmen were like you, my job would be much easier!" Donnie laughed, "I think they would like to help you, General Pan Xing, they just don't have a better way!" Pan Xing snorted coldly, "It's not that there isn't a better way, they just want more orders. Not to mention others, General Motors, at this time, actually wants me to increase the purchase of engines. This is absolutely a joke!" Donnie was also a shareholder in General Motors, and upon hearing Pan Xing's complaint about General Motors, chuckled without expressing his opinion. Then Pan Xing thought of Donnie's multiple identities. Seeing that Donnie didn't continue on this topic, he found himself looking at Donnie more favorably. "What a pity, the production of Pandora Oil Company is still too small. Otherwise, for a patriotic businessman like you, we should be giving more support!" Although this was just a sigh from Pan Xing, Donnie took it to heart. After all, in Donnie's future business plans, the military industry was a profitable segment that he couldn't give up. Whoever controlled the American military industry would truly have an unshakable position in the United States. The Rockefeller Family is formidable, right? During the antitrust period, the Oil Company still got dismantled! But among the various antitrust cases in the United States, one family stood firm, and that was the DuPont Family! Although there are many other reasons, it's undeniable that the military industry has been an important support for the DuPont Family! "I also hope to have more opportunities to cooperate with the military in the future, but right now I only wish to help more friends who have the same wartime experiences as me, to help them out of life's predicaments. They are national heroes and should not be treated like this!"
