Chapter 43: Don't be angry and call young people
To win the trust of a long-time person like Sawuyang, of course, it is not something that can be done by having a meal and chatting for a day.
Gu Kun had never looked forward to it like that.
Therefore, after being full of wine and food, and analyzing the benefits and disadvantages thoroughly, Gu Kun strongly invited the other party to sit on his boat for a while.
The reason why he chose to entertain guests at the Cherished Spring Garden was also because it was located on the banks of the Sarawak River, not far from the fishing port wharf in Kuching South City.
Sa Wuyang also wanted to understand the true strength of this new "chess piece", so he happily went to observe in secret.
Don't look at his current wine and wealth, after all, he was born in a naval family. When I was young, I also ran all over the five oceans, so there was a natural sense of intimacy when I got on the boat.
"This ship is entirely your own, and as far as I know, you've only been around for the last two months. ”
After a brief glance on the ship, and seeing what facilities were available, Sa Wuyang estimated that if the ship was built in Nanyang, it would not be less than 1 million reams (2.4 million yuan)
And there is a high-end segmented cold storage on board, which shows that Gu Kun is interested in doing ocean - the kind of person who goes out for a week, sees what he catches, and then returns to the sea, is reluctant to make this money.
Facing the other party's suspicion, Gu Kun was very generous: "Don't believe it, then look here." ”
Gu Kun naturally pointed to a drawer on the desk in the captain's room, took out something from it and handed it to the other party, and added:
"Not only do I have full ownership, but I have three. It's just that I still owe a lot of loans, millions. The other two, currently at sea, have not been returned, and this one just docked at the port yesterday. ”
Sa Wuyang glanced at it a few times, and his pupils instantly dilated: "You actually have three fishing licenses in Huaxia? Can you still ask the banks in Huaxia to allow you to borrow a few million?"
When Gu Kun described his loan amount, he actually misrepresented something.
All his current ships and cash are worth about 7 million yuan, but he still owes 1.8 million loans, so the actual total assets are about 5 million.
However, Gu Kun doubled the loan, and Sa Wuyang completely believed it.
Because he thinks it's better to understand, at least Gu Kun's net worth after subtracting his liabilities doesn't look so exaggerated.
And this misunderstanding will not make him underestimate Gu Kun's strength in the slightest, but will overestimate it even more.
Because you have the ability to owe more than N loans, you are the uncle, especially in the maritime trade industry, you can borrow a lot of money, which means that you have a hard background and an iron background.
Think about it thirty or forty years ago, when Huo Ye was rising, how many low-interest loans were there? Those were all obtained by being diligent in state affairs for many years and being a red capitalist.
Gu Kun saw the uncertainty in Sa Wuyang's eyes, so he waved his hand back from Sa Wuyang's left and right assistants, and pretended to be very confidential and said to the other party in private: "Uncle Sa, I won't hide it from you, what about me, on the day I first started two months ago, I did get a piece of equipment from the Ocean Country that has a great background, and after selling it for money, I really got a lot of dignitaries in the north to meet and promise......"
His half-truths and half-truths are pretending to be a fox, a fake tiger, and a staggered photo and information of his conversation and laughter with those import and export state-owned enterprises and even the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs in Guangdong, so that Sa Wuyang does not dare to despise it.
To put it mildly, the size of Lanfang's country, in terms of population, is the largest town, or the smallest county.
However, considering that in terms of international relations, "all countries are equal regardless of size", and counting this BUFF, then the actual status of the Grand Duke of Lanfang is estimated to be equivalent to the strongest county magistrate in China, or the deputy position of a prefecture-level city.
But Sa Wuyang is not the Grand Duke, he is just the Grand Duke's brother-in-law. In Lanfang, there are dozens of people with his strength in all aspects. (Although others are not necessarily known for their money and business)
Therefore, Sa Wuyang thought to himself, he is also an ordinary deputy county magistrate in Huaxia, or the social status of the strongest town mayor.
Gu Kun was able to talk and laugh with those section-level cadres of the Huaxia Foreign Trade and Economic Department, and the other party cooperated with him so much and gave him so many loans......
Gu Kun's strength is really still qualified to cooperate with him, so if it can be maintained in the future, it is best not to offend.
"It's no wonder that the virtuous nephew can suddenly rise and get so many resources, and in the future, everyone will have to come and go often. You're in luck. Sa Wuyang put on a smiling face, and his attitude was very different from the official business just now.
He didn't know that Gu Kun had arranged a relatively quiet mini camera equipment in this cabin.
When the time comes, the scene of Sa Wuyang and Gu Kun's "happy conversation", and other materials, will be collected.
Then pinched the head and tail, took the words out of context, and shaped it into the appearance of "Gu Kun and the high-level of Lan Fang are also close and deeply connected", and when Gu Kun returns to Huaxia to do follow-up business in the future, maybe the right time will be able to take out the fox fake tiger power.
It can be said that the stunt of the white wolf with empty gloves and the fat man on both sides has been brought to the extreme.
It was only after doing this kind of thing in person that Gu Kun really understood why Ma Feng in his previous life founded Huaxia Yellow Pages/Ahri Baba at the beginning, and let Ma Zai carry the camera everywhere.
All the camera materials that talk and laugh with big people can be turned into blackmail props that can be turned into foxes and fake tigers and whitewash the thickness of their connections!
You "inadvertently" make Big Man A mistakenly think that you are buddies with Big Man B, and "inadvertently" make Big Man B mistakenly think that you are buddies with Big Man A, and over time you will really become buddies with those big guys.
......
After flickering and stabilizing the temporary allies, Gu Kun could let go of his hands and feet and make his next plan.
After staying overnight in Kuching, he returned to Lan Fang with Long Wu early the next morning.
Gu Kun didn't even go to see his own sister Gu Pan, he just didn't want to have more complications - whether it was Sa Wuyang or Chen Mingcheng, they didn't know that Gu Pan was studying at Kuching Zhonghua No. 1 Middle School, only that Gu Pan had transferred schools.
Because Gu Kun changed to a big ship and had to dock at the main wharf of Lanfang Port, the news of his return quickly reached Chen Mingcheng's ears.
Gu Kun didn't have time to go home, Chen Mingcheng's younger brother rushed to the dock to invite him, and politely asked Gu Kun to appreciate his face, but he still drove a tiger to pick up people.
Gu Kun's face was relaxed: "I heard Ah Long tell me yesterday that Boss Chen came to me last week? ”
Anyway, everyone hasn't torn their faces yet, so it's better to be natural.
Gu Kun Shi Ran sat on Chen Mingcheng's tiger head and ran straight to the other party's seaview villa.
Chen Mingcheng has several mansions in Lanfang, and even a small outlying island of a few tenths of a square kilometer, which is his private island, on which luxury manors are built.
However, for convenience, Chen Mingcheng also has a villa on the main island, which is located on a narrow sandbar beach in the southeast corner of the island, with white sand sea views on both sides, which is very pleasant.
It's just that the beach geology is loose and can't raise high-rise buildings, so the architectural layout of the villa is the style of a Maldivian sand house hotel.
If you can't imagine the officials, you can just go to live in the Maldives.
After getting out of the car, Gu Kun dusted off his clothes for a long time, and said to Long Wu with a smile: "Look at Boss Chen's house, this is called life." Lao Tzu is also a rich man now, and he will build one like this when he goes back. ”
"That's, with your business, that's all as it should be. Long Wu said bluntly.
The horses next to Chen Mingcheng, after listening to Gu Kun's words and deeds, all felt that this young man was just a nouveau riche with no connotation and depth, and they trembled with a little money.
No background!
Gu Kun was soon led to the beach in the backyard, where he saw a linen tent with a bed and a sofa coffee table underneath, and a few cups and bottles with chilled whiskey, cocktails, and peach iced tea.
A middle-aged man in his thirties wearing a cowboy hat and a linen plaid shirt, wearing sunglasses, drinking iced tea and smoking a cigar there, is Chen Mingcheng.
It can be seen that he is trying his best to imitate the demeanor of a Caribbean island tycoon and a solo vegetable country hero.
Even when he greeted Gu Kun, he mixed with a few awkward translations mixed with Hong Kong films:
"Gu Sheng, it's not easy for you to find. Last time, I went to Liu Min's house to find it in person, and later through Long Wu, you won't be avoiding me, right? It's not easy to get rich with you. ”
"My ship doesn't have a satellite phone, so there's always a miss, so that's not what happened today. It is my honor to make a fortune with Boss Chen. Gu Kun stepped forward, poured himself a cup of iced tea with another clean cup on the table, and drank it all.
Chen Mingcheng obviously didn't believe it yet: "But I heard that your sister also moved away." ”
Gu Kun said naturally: "Yes, no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education." To tell you the truth, Lanfang High School is really terrible, I only graduated last year, I don't know? Now that I have money, of course, I want my sister to go out to study so that I can go to a decent university in the future. What's the matter, Boss Chen thinks I can't afford it?"
Chen Mingcheng smiled dumbly: "No, what can't you afford to study, even if it is hundreds of thousands a year, you can afford to read." ”
Laughing and laughing, Chen Mingcheng couldn't help but secretly think in his heart: This guy is really a nouveau riche who doesn't know the height of the sky?
Not wanting to waste any more time, he decided to ask some quick questions:
"You should also know that there are only a few businesses selling diesel on the ground in Lanfang. I am the general agent of Shell, and I am clear of the output of the refineries in the surrounding three countries. The price you sell is significantly lower, and I want to know who supplied you with the goods. Say it, and I can dissuade you. ”
"I don't get oil from any of Shell's sources, I can guarantee it...... If you say that you will discuss and make a fortune together, you won't just ask this, right?" Gu Kun showed a disappointed look.
Chen Mingcheng finally couldn't hold his breath a little: "Born cub, are you fooling me? Do you think that relying on the sentence 'It's not the oil taken by Shell', this matter will be revealed? If it is not the oil taken by Shell, just tell me where the oil is taken." ”
Gu Kun: "Then it has nothing to do with you, right? Shell Lanfang general agent, is it too lenient? If I tell you unconditionally, is it still called making a fortune together? You are my three-year-old child?"
Gu Kun's words were a bit arrogant, and he went a little too far.
However, Gu Kun knew that he had an advantage in smoke bombs.
The biggest smoke bomb is his own age.
He is not yet 18 years old.
In Chen Mingcheng's view, this is obviously the true expression of a young nouveau riche who can't hold his breath.
If Gu Kun quickly tells the other party the hole cards, the other party will suspect whether there is a conspiracy and trap inside.
"Hehehe, it seems that Gu Sheng thinks about doing business very simply. Chen Mingcheng didn't laugh angrily.
"Otherwise, what's so difficult? I don't seem to have noticed, it's easy to earn a million a month. ”
"If you don't say it, you'll just hide it from me for half a month! Do you think I can't guess it now? Most of your cheap oil came from northern China or the surrounding places, right? I let you say it yourself, to give you face and give you a chance to cooperate!"
What should Gu Kun say to cooperate with the other party?
It's you, you actually guessed it?
It doesn't seem to fit the character design.
It's so tiring to act with self-righteous people.
