MTL - I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World-Chapter 26 Intermediary
"Welcome, you must be Mr. Jiang Chen, a mysterious friend of the East." Just as soon as he entered the door, Jiang Chen saw a white man with blond curly hair greeted him with a smile, using which chinasekungfu movie he did not know. The posture of the middle school, arched the hand.
Although it is white, Jiang Chen feels that Roberts' face is not white, and the rough skin is like rolling in the sand. However, the clean and tidy instrument and the courtesy of the gestures can still make people feel respected.
"Fortunately, you will be lucky, you must be Mr. Roberts, Mr. Bruce introduced me to you." Jiang Chen's face was a little weird, but still smiled and arched his hand to express friendship.
To be honest, I saw that foreigners use the phrase "the Chinese in the eyes of foreigners to say hello" and say hello. This sentence may be a bit circumvent, but in short it means this...
"Bruce is a good guy. He used to stop me in the Middle East. I can meet him again here. I am very happy. Haha, there is a Chinese saying: Friends are my friends, I am right. Is it?" Roberts reached out.
"Yes. Mr. Roberts's Chinese is amazing." Jiang Chen took Roberts's hand and shook it, sighing sincerely.
It should be correct, although Jiang Chen does not know whether the sentence is a proverb...
"Haha, that is nature. I have always been interested in this mysterious country of the East. There are business opportunities everywhere." Roberts looked at Jiang Chen with a gaze, and a gentleman gestured an invitation. "Inside, please, My friend. I have a bottle of 82 years of Lafite here. Haha, I have long wanted to try it."
"That, respectfulness is worse than death." Jiang Chen arched his hand.
Unlike the new wines offered in the villas, this **** red liquid has a mellow taste. Even Jiang Chen, who is not used to drinking red wine, can't help but admire it, really good wine!
The man who stood on one side kept moving like a piece of wood, but Jiang Chen could feel the general smell of the beast that he had uploaded. Although with sunglasses, the prominent frontal bone and the high nose of the Slavic features in the person's face is still more obvious, the bear temperament faintly highlights the nationality of his fighting race.
"My bodyguard, Nick Kaczynski, Belarusian. Oh, we met in Ukraine. He is also a good buddy, responsible for my safety." Roberts noticed Jiang Chen's gaze, so he smiled To Jiang Chen, "Although Bruce is a good person, Blackwater International sometimes does not do things very well. They are too close to the FBI, so I changed my partner."
Even if he heard that he was talking about himself, the sculptural bodyguards did not have the slightest ups and downs.
“Is it dangerous to do?” Jiang Chen leaned back in the chair and asked in a chattering voice. “Listen to Bruce, you are a famous American middleman. Oil and gold?”
"Yes. Because in addition to safer crude oil and gold, I sometimes have to make some arms and other things for my employer. When these things are touched, people will inevitably want your life."
Roberts ignited a cigar, and then gave him a very polite one. "The control of firearms in your country is very strict. It is a paradise for me here. But good times are always short-lived. For example, next time I have a flight to South Africa at three o'clock,"
"Doesn't it matter in time?" Jiang Chen looked up at the clock and it was already 11 o'clock.
"It doesn't matter," Roberts waved his hand in a smile, then sat up. "I am very interested in Mr. Jiang Chen's business. I don't know if there is any place I can help?"
Jiang Chen groaned and shook the ash on the cigar, and he couldn't help but sit up.
"I hope you don't misunderstand, my friend, I just accidentally heard your talk with Bruce at the dinner. This is purely accidental. But isn't the business opportunity always born in the accident? You know, I am in the Far East. Business has always been very interesting, but it's all in the groping phase... my instincts tell me that we definitely have a place to work together."
“Oh?” Jiang Chen did not accuse him of eavesdropping on private conversations, but instead raised his eyebrows with a slight interest, “say?”
“Mr. Jiang Chen’s business should be settled with gold, but as far as I know, the laws of your country and the strict supervision system, the sale of a large amount of gold is bound to attract the attention of the government. Moreover, there is no 'invoice'. gold."
"It seems that Mr. Roberts knows a lot about our national conditions. However, is there no problem in selling gold in the United States?" Jiang Chen smiled and said nothing.
"There are problems, but we talk about the law, tell the evidence, don't talk about (political) governance. I have a very professional team responsible for handling such troubles for me, even though the FBI recently had a little contradiction with me, I still haven't been caught. Didn't it?" Roberts shook the ash on the cigar and smiled mysteriously. "I have an analogy on how to deal with it. I registered a shell company in Saudi Arabia. I got a batch of crude oil from Iran, according to The embargo agreement, my approach is illegal. But if this crude oil is transported into my shell company in Saudi Arabia, it will not be long before the crude oil will appear legally on the international market."
You told me this, you are not afraid of being eavesdropped?
Randomly, Jiang Chen is amazed, and I must have such a strong bodyguard, which is impossible for the anti-eavesdropping work.
Jiang Chen immediately understood the meaning of Mr. Roberts.
The middleman of feelings also has a business dealing with black goods, which is interesting.
"So, we really have the possibility of cooperation." Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"I am an honest businessman," Roberts said when he saw the deal, he couldn't help but smile. "No matter how much, I can eat it. Your gold only needs to go to a mining company in South Africa." It can be legally appearing in the international market. Of course, you don't have to worry about the specific operation, you can sell the gold directly to me. And I only charge a fee of %9."
Jiang Chen thought for a while.
The fee for %9 is not too high. After all, his gold is trading without capital. A small amount of shots may be eaten by ordinary gold shops, but if Jiang Chen really moved out of ten tons of gold, I am afraid that no store will dare to accept it. Even if sold in batches, the risk of being targeted is high. Moreover, the person named Liu Anshan always gave him a feeling of not being very good. I am afraid that his hand is not very clean, but he can't touch his own idea.
Be careful, although it is suspected of smuggling a large amount of gold out of the country, I believe that Roberts has his channel to solve this problem.
At this time, Roberts saw that Jiang Chen was silent and he was not sure. The 9% fee seemed to be a bit higher, but he did not have a risk at all. He is busy with the preparation of funds. If the transaction amount exceeds 20 million US dollars, even if he sells all his assets, he will not be able to get it. In order to make this business, he also got in touch with acquaintances to find a way to get a personal loan. The interest on the loan is not a small number.
However, if the amount of gold in Jiang Chen’s hand is large enough, the handling fee still has 1 point of space to adjust.
Just as Roberts prepared to tentatively and aggressively cut prices, Jiang Chen suddenly opened his mouth.
"No problem, but I have a condition."
Jiang Chen’s words gave Roberts a glimpse, and then he showed a happy expression.
"I can guarantee the quality of gold. It is a thousand gold, which is what you often say 24K gold. In this respect, I believe that you also have specialized talents to identify." Nonsense, can there be fake in the bank vault? The fake ones are all sold out! Cough, "But, transportation is the responsibility of you, I am only responsible for transporting gold to a certain place in the country. Also, gold and US dollars are delivered on-site, and I am no longer responsible for the safety of gold after leaving."
"No problem! My friend." Roberts agreed very quickly. "It seems that my deal has been reached?"
"Yes, the cooperation is pleasant." Jiang Chen quickly extended his right hand.
"Cooperation is pleasant." Roberts smiled and held Jiang Chen's hand, and the two stood up together.
"This is my business card. If Mr. Jiang Chen is ready, please call me for some time. Also, it is best to prepare a Swiss bank account, which is more convenient."
"Of course, I wish you a smooth business." Jiang Chen took the business card.
"Can I get to know it in advance? I don't know how much Mr. Jiang Chen's goods are, I am prepared to have enough liquidity." Just in case, Roberts still asked this somewhat embarrassing question.
"Oh, this is not anxious. I will call you on July 15th. As for the amount of gold, there are probably a few tons." After that, Jiang Chen left the room, leaving a shocked Roberts. .
The expression on Roberts' face was so sluggish that the precious cigar fell on the ground and did not notice.
How many tons? How many tons is it?
According to the recent market, if you make a whole ounce of gold 1350 dollars, a ton of gold can be 43402500 dollars! According to the 9% fee, as long as 3 tons of gold can bring him millions of dollars in income!
9%! This is the rhythm to make crazy.
It’s just lying down to make money.
A few tons of gold... Even if it is 7% of the handling fee, he will do it. How much rich it will be, and even the counter-offer will be too lazy to return. At the same time, this also made Roberts more certain of his own guess, this batch of gold is really black goods.
What business can get so much gold? Did he rob the CICC?
"...oh, God," Roberts had to return to God for a long time, and took a sigh of relief. "Good guy, it’s going to be rich."
Reselling 10,000 tons of crude oil is only a profit of more than 500,000 US dollars, but also risked being detained by the US Navy, risking being investigated by the FBI... However, Jiang Chen’s opening decided to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. transaction.
"Nick, do you think this oriental friend is reliable?" Roberts asked softly in his dreams. He naturally knew that Nick didn't understand the business. At this moment, he only wanted to let him wake him up.
"Sorry boss, I don't understand very well," Nick said as Roberts shook his head silently as expected. However, after a moment of indulging, Nick continued, "But this oriental is a dangerous guy."
"Oh? He will still have Chinese Kung Fu?" Roberts smiled slyly, and he was funny enough to pose a Bruce Lee's pose. He didn't believe in these things.
Nick looked at the boss of the treasure, and shook his head silently. He is very familiar with this boss. Whenever he is excited, he always does something that looks strange to others to express his excitement.
"With a soldier's intuition, he may be fiercer than the Bruce guy." Responsible for the safety of the boss is his duty, Nick seriously said his instincts.
Roberts stunned and frowned slightly.
"Is he not a businessman?... No, I think people should not be wrong."
Nick hesitated for a moment and continued to speak.
"Maybe he is a businessman, but his skill should not be weak. My instinct tells me that if he holds a gun, he is not my opponent. But if I open my hand, I only have a 50% chance of winning."
Roberts stunned, but he had seen this Nick's skill. At the time in Ukraine, when he was dismissed from the government army by the US government, the arms of the US government suddenly encountered civilian armed attacks. At that time, Nick Lima pulled out the pistol from the waist of the government military officer who died. Then, with the last 9 bullets, and retreating, he successfully brought Roberts to safety. More than a dozen civilian militants were killed.
Now Nick actually said that Jiang Chen’s melee ability may be comparable to him.
Suddenly Roberts laughed haha.
"The East is a mysterious place, or will we go to Egypt next time? Hahaha..."
No wonder Jiang Chen did not hire a bodyguard. It turned out that his own strength is very strong. In China, a country where guns are banned, it is enough to be able to fight.
However, what can Jiang Chen play and what is the relationship with their trading?
Roberts is an honest businessman. The spirit of the contract makes him believe that credit can bring him long-term returns, and he will never do anything to kill chickens and take eggs.
Even if he saw the diamonds in the hands of the children in refugee camps in Africa, he would only choose to use candy instead of bullets.
After all, the unit price of a bullet can be much more expensive than candy.
Roberts has no doubt that Jiang Chen really needs a few tons of gold to shoot, and he is not able to investigate his bottom in this strange land in China. Is there a risk that it can be called a business?
Roberts is willing to gamble. Jiang Chen’s gesture of not hesitating is definitely that gold is supporting.
Moreover, deceiving him does not bring any benefit to Jiang Chen.
