"Then what are you worried about? Those countries, even if they fancy this wealth, should not dare to do that kind of plundering to a Chinese merchant, right?"

Gu Mu asked puzzled.

"It's very easy for them to deal with me," Wang Yongyuan said, "Over the years since I went abroad, I have accumulated some wealth, but I have also done some less honorable things." Of course, those things are not big deals, but if they are really investigated, it should be enough to sentence me to death hundreds of times. If they want to deal with me, they have the means to do so above board. ”

A few hundred death sentences are sufficient.

These words made Gu Mu feel terrified.

How many hurtful things have been done to deserve the death penalty hundreds of times?

Wang Yongyuan looked at his stunned expression, sighed, and said, "Child, you have also grown up, and I should also let you know how cruel this world is." ”

Walking to the edge of the pool, he sat on a wheelchair and motioned for Gu Mu to sit next to him.

Looking at the pool water in the pool for a while, he said:

"Actually, when we first met, there were some things I lied to you, and I got wealth, but it wasn't that easy, I fought hard. ”

"In the beginning, I didn't go to Africa, but to the United States. At that time, I didn't have that much money to smuggle over, and people were willing to let me go because I promised them to help them carry drugs at the border. ”

The word drug trafficking made Fang Hao's heart tighten.

Most people in China know what it means to sell drugs.

I didn't expect this super-rich man to do such a thing before.

"The crime of drug trafficking in the United States is also quite serious, of course I know that it is very dangerous, but what can I do? I don't know anything there, and I don't have any technology, so they smuggle me over, and I owe tens of thousands of dollars in arrears, and if I want to pay off that arrears and live a good life, I can only fight with my life. ”

"Others help those people carry drugs at the border, and for safety, they will only carry a few grams to a dozen grams at a time, so that even if they are caught, they can be explained as taking drugs, and there will not be much of a problem. However, in order to pay off their arrears as soon as possible, I carried a large amount of drugs each time, hundreds of grams, or even kilograms. Anyway, my thoughts at that time were that if you catch it, you will shoot it, and if you live like that anyway, if you can't catch it, you will earn it. ”

Mentioning such a past, Wang Yongyuan's tone was full of great helplessness, and there was even a trace of sadness in it.

But Gu Mu had no way to sympathize with him.

Because the old man went into exile abroad because he had committed an unforgivable crime against his mother.

It was done by one's own death.

But when I heard him talk about things like that, I probably understood what kind of person he was.

Vicious.

Not only to others, but also to yourself.

"I help them carry drugs, and I get money based on weight, and I can earn five dollars for one gram. My luck is better, maybe because I have been the deputy mayor for a few years, and I don't look like a person at the bottom of society, and I often travel back and forth to the border, and I haven't been checked. Within a month, I paid off the money I owed them. ”

Wang Yongyuan continued to tell his story to Gu Mu:

"After paying them off, I didn't stop doing it, but continued to carry drugs to them. Because they no longer owe them money, and if you carry drugs to them, the commission will be much higher. In half a year, I had hundreds of thousands of dollars. ”

"During this period, in order to be able to live in that place, I practiced my English frantically, and soon I had the ability to communicate with the locals independently, and in the process, I also established my own network. ”

"After that, I stopped carrying drugs for them, and started to pull some people to do it alone, and in just two or three years, I had more than 100 people under my hands, and I also had tens of millions of dollars in assets. ”

"At this time, I didn't want to do such a risky thing anymore, but with so many people under my staff, I had to do something to make money. These people can keep me safe, but if I can't feed them, they'll take my life. ”

"By chance, a drug addict approached me and told me that he was an explorer for a multinational mining conglomerate, that he had discovered a large copper mine somewhere in Africa, but that he had not reported it to his company, and that he was willing to sell me that information for $1 million. ”

"I had so many people doing dirty work, and of course I was not afraid that he would lie to me, so I agreed to the deal, got the exact address of the big copper mine, and then bought the land from the local government, and the profit I got allowed me to get out of the dangerous business of drug trafficking, and wash my hands and go ashore. ”

The story told by Wang Yongyuan is the same as the story he told Gu Mu before about making a fortune in Africa, but with the addition of some background introduction, the story has changed from a beautiful fairy tale to a bloody story.

But Gu Mu believes that this story should be a real story.

Where is there so much luck in this world?

Beneath the surface of a lot of luck is a lot of careful calculation.

It was as if he had suddenly been found by this old man and had become rich overnight.

There is no luck, only calculation.

Wang Yongyuan continued:

"I was in touch with the guy who sold me the news, and he later introduced me to a couple of colleagues who were qualified to lead the exploration team. Although I don't have the ability to organize an exploration team to explore some places, they have the support of the company, use the company's resources for mining exploration, find good places, hide it, tell me the news, and then I will buy the land. ”

"It was a big multinational mining conglomerate, and they had wealth that I couldn't reach right now. But with those few insiders, I bought land in more than a dozen countries, and then discovered minerals, and in this way I made a lot of money. ”

Before the multinational company wants to invest, it will send people to do some mineral exploration in advance, and such exploration is often secret and will not be known to outsiders.

When they find that there is value for development, they will buy that piece of land, and wait until the land is purchased before they carry out formal exploration and mining, which can make the price of the land much lower.

However, when there is no certainty that there are mineral resources in a place, the investment is also very large. This also makes the value of that information very great.

Wang Yongyuan's way of obtaining this information was of course disgraceful, but it also brought him great profits.
