"Godfather, I have a business I want to talk to you about, I don't know if you have time?" Jia Lei said.

After Jia Lei negotiated the conditions with Director Gairdsky, he called Mayor Zhao as soon as he went out.

"Jia Lei, you don't have a fever, right? How did you find me in business? Do you want to ask me for any help?" Mayor Zhao asked.

"Look at what you said, I'm not looking for you for help this time, but I have something good to send ......you," Jia Lei said speechlessly.

"What good things can you give me?" Mayor Zhao asked in disbelief.

"Isn't Mingzhu City building a new area?

"What are you talking about?steel?really?,Jia Lei, can you get steel?" Mayor Zhao asked excitedly.

"Since I'm here to talk to you about business, of course I'll be able to get steel. Don't say that my godson is not filial, I have a good thing this time, but I am the first to think of you. Jia Lei said with a smile.

"Who dares to say that you are not filial? Jia Lei, you are more filial than my own son! Tell me quickly, how much steel can you get? What type of steel are they?" Mayor Zhao asked anxiously.

"You can have all the models you want, but for the time being, I'm going to use construction steel. After all, this thing is a scarce resource in China, and I don't have to pull anything to China, and many people are rushing to pay for it halfway. Jia Lei said.

"Oh! What do we have to do with each other? You must leave these steel products to us in Mingzhu City, and others will rush to pay for them on the way? Don't worry, I will ask the people below to pay you immediately! Let's pay first and then sign the contract. Mayor Zhao said anxiously.

"I don't want any money, you can let those who want to buy steel help me change it into clothes and daily necessities in the country! Then you will transport the things to the customs gate in wagons, and I will arrange for the train to pull the steel bars over, so that you can just bring the steel bars back." Jia Lei said.

"That's okay, I'll let someone organize the supply of goods immediately, Jia Lei, you can give me a good look at that batch of steel, don't ask someone to rob me halfway." Mayor Zhao instructed.

"I know that steel is very sought-after in China now, but what you said is too exaggerated, right?

"Why is there no one to rob it? You don't know how many times a year I have to go to the top for this steel bar index, and my little mayor has to grab thousands of tons of indicators with people from several provinces every time, isn't this embarrassing? Mayor Zhao said worriedly.

"It stands to reason that steel bars should not be bought with money? Our Pearl City is not short of money! You can't buy it in the plan, but there are always unplanned ones, right?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.

"We are not short of money in Pearl City, but the country is short of foreign exchange, our domestic steel production this year is only 65 million tons, and the number of imports is only 73 million tons. However, there are 13 bonded zones and 27 economic development zones to be built in China this year, and the country's housing reform and real estate development, roads, bridges, reservoirs and other infrastructure construction will be carried out. The amount of construction steel bars is in short supply, and you can't grab it!" Mayor Zhao said.

"When I was in China, I heard that there was an urgent shortage of steel bars so I moved the idea of buying steel, but I didn't expect that steel bars would be so short?

"Of course, if you buy less, you need to use nearly 900 tons of steel bars to build a 150-square-meter, ten-storey reinforced concrete building, and you can't even build a building with 200 tons of steel bars!

"Hmm...... Didn't I never study architecture, and these 200 tons of steel bars were just samples that I asked for with the steel mill! Yes, I have made friends with their factory director, and we will have as many steel bars as we want in the future?" Jia Lei immediately found a suitable excuse for himself.

"It would be great if this was really the case? Jia Lei, my godfather assures you! Even if you get back tens of thousands of tons of steel bars and steel plates this year, your godfather can help you sell them. If you send me steel bars every day, I will make you rich!" Mayor Zhao hurriedly said, he knew that luring him to profit was the best way for Jia Lei.

"But steel is heavy, and I only earn a ton of money? Jia Lei asked.

"Jia Lei, you don't know that the amount of this thing is much larger than clothes, and the profit is also high! I'll take 12mm rebar for you as an example, the price of this kind of steel in January was only more than 1,700 yuan a ton, and now the market price has risen to 2,800 yuan a ton in August. According to the speculation of experts in the city, the price of this steel bar can grow to 3,500 yuan a ton by the end of this year. This year's domestic steel shortage is about 8 million tons! Do you calculate how much money you can earn a year if you can get enough steel?" Mayor Zhao asked.

"Bang!" The satellite phone in Jia Lei's hand fell to the ground, and he was stunned.

"Pete, I remember that the price of 12mm steel bars in the international market is only $270 a ton, right?" asked Jia Lei.

"Yes, boss!" said Pee, nodding.

"Now one dollar can be exchanged for 5.5 yuan, that is to say, the price of steel in the international market is only more than 1,350 yuan, I can earn 1,500 yuan by selling a ton of steel, and how much can I earn if I sell 10,000 tons?" Jia Lei asked dumbly.

"15 million RMB! Nearly $3 million. Pete replied.

"How many rigid materials can this steel mill in the back produce in a year?" Jia Lei asked confusedly.

"According to the information we have gathered, its annual production is around 5 million tons per year. Pete reported.

"Poof! Can I earn 7 billion a year?" Jia Lei knelt down, his legs weak.

"I think I'm going to send it!" Jia Lei picked up the phone from the ground and said without a head or a head.

"Jia Lei, what are you talking about?" Mayor Zhao asked puzzled.

"I'm a little excited right now, you tell me to be quiet for now! We'll talk about steel later. Jia Lei hung up the phone after speaking.

"Boss, why are you sitting on the ground all of a sudden? Are you alright?" asked Pete nervously.

"I'm fine, I'm just a little too nervous, Pete, you can help me up!" Jia Lei said, Pete immediately stepped forward and helped Jia Lei up.

"I think I just ordered less goods?" Jia Lei said regretfully.

"2,400 tons of steel a year is a lot," Pete said.

"Who said a lot? This thing is not enough to even stuff my teeth! With my godfather's relationship, I can sell 2 million tons of steel a year, and Pudong will develop on a large scale! I don't know how much steel will be used to build bridges, pave roads, and build buildings in a year...... Jia Lei said regretfully.

"Since you regret it, let's go back and re-sign a contract, shall we?" Pete suggested.

"Hmm......" Jia Lei stopped talking, he ordered this bit of goods at the beginning just to go in and see the situation of this factory, and he didn't plan to really sell steel bars at that time.

But if Jia Lei increases orders now, then the factory will turn losses into profits and appreciation, and Jia Lei and Director Galldarsky's plan to buy the factory at a low price will also go bankrupt!

"Don't be in a hurry to increase orders! Domestic transportation and customers have not been negotiated, let's wait a few months to increase orders!" Jia Lei had to make an excuse casually.

Jia Lei spent two days in the Chelyabinsk region, watching the steel and steel plates he had ordered loaded onto the train, and at the same time hurried to conspire with the director of the Geldarsky plant.

Don't look at the Cheli Yabin steel mill is quite large, in fact, it only ranks fourth in the local area and can't even enter the top three, so it will be sold by the government later.

"I think we have to move faster, you don't know how much steel we are short of in China now, in order to lower the valuation of steel mills, I don't even dare to order more goods! I have to earn millions less a month now!" Jia Lei said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I've already asked someone to inquire! The government will issue privatized securities in October, and these two months will be enough time for us to buy all the shares in the hands of our employees! When the time comes, we will be able to buy 30 percent of the shares belonging to the public sector if we collect some privatized securities! At that time, the 20 percent of the shares in the hands of the government will be of no use. Said Director Gaildowski.

"If you have an arrangement, I think it's best for you to take advantage of the recent low tide of production in the steel plant and have all the equipment in the factory overhauled. In this way, as soon as the factory buys it, we can immediately start production at full capacity. Jia Lei instructed.

"Don't worry, I know that! But if we really do our best, can you guarantee that we can sell all the steel? You know, it would be bad if you couldn't sell so much steel after it was produced!" asked Director Gairdsky worriedly.

"Don't worry, the sale of steel is all on me!" Jia Lei patted his chest and assured, anyway, Jia Lei knew that the construction industry was not worried about business before 2008.

Jia Lei watched his first batch of steel be loaded onto the car and pulled away, and then took the train back to Moscow, and he decided to take the other steel samples back to China by plane.

You must know that these samples are the big ones for Jia Lei, don't look at their small dosage but high profits!

*****

"Jia Lei, you're back, I'm about to kill you!" Jia Lei was hugged as soon as he got off the plane.

"Sister Ma Li, let it go, it's not good to be in public!" Jia Lei laboriously took his head out of Ma Li's arms and said.

"Jia Lei, you're back. Hong Chen happily walked over and asked.

"Yes, I'm back, but I'm going to leave tomorrow! You explain everything you're doing, and we'll go back home together tomorrow." Jia Lei nodded and said.

"Huh, Jia Lei, what are you doing back to China?" asked Ma Li puzzled.

"I heard that Pengcheng is also going to issue stock subscription certificates, so I want to go back and have a look?" Jia Lei said.

"Is Pengcheng also going to issue stock subscription certificates? Then let's go back quickly? You don't know, I didn't buy the stock subscription warrants when Mingzhu City issued the stock subscription certificates, but I regret it to death. Hong Chen immediately said happily.

"But do you have the capital to buy stock warrants?" Jia Lei asked suddenly.

"Capital?" Hong Chen was stunned when he heard this.

He only has 200,000 yuan in his hand, which Hong Chen bought by selling 20 shares of Yuyuan Shopping Mall stocks.

"I don't have any capital in my hand, but I can go back and sell the stock?" Hong Chen thought for a while and said.

"That's a good idea, that's what I thought! I'm going to go back to Pearl City and sell all the shares now." Jia Lei nodded and said.

"Still selling?Jia Lei, I remember that the stocks in your hand have been almost sold by you, right?Where did you spend all that money?" asked Hong Chen with a frown.

"Didn't I use all that money to buy airplanes, and now if I don't sell my stocks, where will I get the money to buy subscription warrants? Besides, I've taken a fancy to several factories in Cheliyabin, and I'm about to cash out the stocks to buy businesses. Jia Lei said casually.

Jia Lei will definitely sell the stock, and Jia Lei has decided to sell it all, after all, the domestic stock market is about to usher in a big bear market, and the stock price will fall to the basement at that time.

Jia Lei is going to buy the bottom of the stock market when the stock price falls to the bottom, and then buy back the stocks he sold. In this way, his stock is not less at all, and he can still make a lot of money.

"Jia Lei, if you are short of money now, I have a good business in my hands!" Ma Li said suddenly.

"What kind of business?" asked Jia Lei.

"Actually, I think if you have the money to buy a factory, you might as well do a currency exchange business with me? Ma Li said.

"What is that?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.

Didn't you say last time that if someone wants to exchange rubles for yuan, you can help exchange as many as you want. I don't think you can help in vain with so much money, we can learn from those ruble exchange points on the streets of Moscow, and let those Chinese people who come to you to exchange yuan pay you some fees. We can also make a little bit of the difference in the exchange rate between the ruble and the yuan!" said Ma Li.

"Where is the exchange rate between the ruble and the renminbi now, and now only barter is allowed in China, and now the ruble is not accepted, have you forgotten? Where can I find the exchange rate difference?" Jia Lei asked puzzled.

"But there is still an exchange rate between China and the dollar, and we can first exchange the ruble for the dollar exchange rate and then for the yuan exchange rate? According to the current handling fee of rubles for dollars on the street, we can earn about 3 to 5 percent of the handling fee!

"Oh, then, I ask you, how are you going to make this money? You know, I don't have the time to sit here and write checks to people every day? Three hundred and five hundred dollars a check, my checkbook is not enough. Jia Lei said speechlessly.

"Isn't there still me! You can't write a check with so much money? If the domestic bank sees so many checks, it won't doubt you. We can open a note for the Chinese people in Moscow, and you ask someone to take a sum of money from the bank and put it in the safe, and whoever goes with the note will give him RMB. In this way, we can sit at home like a bank and collect money! We can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a day by switching between the renminbi and the ruble. Ma Li said excitedly.

"Oh! That's what you said, isn't this just opening an underground bank? No, it's illegal, I won't do it!" Jia Lei immediately shook his head and said.
