Chapter 145: Strategic Reserves
For Zhao Xinglan's entanglement, Phantom Li didn't think it was important. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
“… It's true that these things can't be sold in large quantities at the moment, but you're not short of start-up capital right now, master, so I think it's a good idea to keep them in the collection, and when the owner starts his own business and owns a huge multinational company, these treasures can be used to fill the family treasury!" she said.
Throughout ancient and modern times, in the process of developing any well-known family from scratch, it is inseparable from sufficient financial and material resources, but there is another important thing that you can't have if you want it, that is, the heritage.
This thing is usually embodied in cultural history, accumulation and inheritance, and it is not easy to exchange for it by other means, and it can only be gradually accumulated over time. Among them, the richness of the family collection is one of the important criteria to measure the comprehensive strength and heritage of a wealthy family!
Many fast-rising upstarts in the wealth industry spend a lot of money every year to acquire various cultural relics, antiques, treasures, calligraphy and paintings, in addition to being used for appreciation, collection, and value preservation, and more importantly, as heirlooms for future generations. For example, a well-known e-commerce boss and a foreign Internet leader spend hundreds of millions of dollars on collection every year!
Whether it is China or the Western world, many of the long-standing wealthy families have secret vaults of different scales, and most of the time they only enter but do not leave, and they will not be transferred for auction unless there are special circumstances.
If nothing else, there will inevitably be a powerful consortium and even a family born from Zhao Xinglan's hands in the future, and if a huge amount of wealth and resources are spent to acquire one by one outside, it will be too cost-effective and inefficient. But it is undoubtedly the best choice to take these shipwreck treasures from the sea directly to replenish the family inventory.
"Well, you have a point, so be it. Zhao Xinglan agreed with her analysis.
There weren't many things on the third platform, only a dozen or so chests, but they were all gold and silver coins, and a few gold and silver artifacts, which looked quite exquisite.
Unlike ordinary gold and silver, these things are currencies from different eras and countries in history, or collectible treasures, and their real value is much higher than that of gold and silver itself, so they cannot be simply smelted and purified and then sold, as was the case in the past.
A gold coin here weighs only a dozen grams, but the price may be speculated to thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars after it is released, so it must be properly collected.
Only on the edge of the platform are more than thirty gold ingots, each weighing a standard kilogram, this is part of the harvest that can be taken out by Zhao Xinglan for realization.
Since the completion of the transformation in early February, the mother emperor has excavated two shipwrecks in the South China Sea, and all the harvests have been transported to this branch base for storage, and now all of them are presented in front of Zhao Xinglan.
"Let's keep this gold here for now, so I don't have to sell it!" she said.
Those internationally renowned multinational giants will set aside a certain amount of funds or important materials and raw materials in the company's financial plan as a strategic reserve in case of emergency. As a country, gold reserves are an indispensable strategic material to maintain financial stability and ensure the healthy and orderly development of the economy.
Therefore, Zhao Xinglan felt that this gold could be stored and used as a strategic reserve for the company in the future.
It's just that this little bit of gold still seems to be less, and the mother queen has to continue to work hard to find treasure.
“…… Can the reconnaissance detachment's range of activities reach the Atlantic Ocean now? Do you want to send some forces to search for the wreck?" Zhao Xinglan said.
She asked because most of the world's most famous shipwrecks were located on the Atlantic coast, or on the Atlantic-American route, such as the famous Spanish gold fleet.
In 1702, the famous "Golden Fleet" in Spanish history was sunk by the British in Vigo Bay in the Atlantic Ocean, thus leaving a major legacy in the history of treasure hunting. At that time, Spain was in financial difficulties, and a large fleet of 17 galleons was ordered to return to Spain with gold, silver and jewelry looted from South America. One day in June, just as the "Golden Flotilla" was sailing to Vigo Bay in the Atlantic, a combined British and Dutch fleet suddenly blocked the way, and the desperate commander-in-chief of the "Golden Flotilla" ordered the burning of ships carrying gold, silver and jewelry, and in an instant, Vigo Bay became a sea of fire. According to the estimates of the captured Spanish admiral Chacon: about 5,000 wagons of gold jewelry sank to the bottom of the sea. Although the British ventured many times to dive under the sea, they caught only a small amount of loot. As a result, this batch of treasures strongly attracts countless treasure hunters. Since then, at the bottom of the sea with a radius of nearly 1,000 nautical miles, groups of adventurers have emerged.
In addition, there are the whereabouts of the last gold and jewelry vaults of Nazi Germany, the treasures of the last Russian tsar, the treasures of the legendary King Solomon, and the treasures of some pirate leaders who have left their names in the history books.
"At present, there are still some difficulties, of course, if you want to try reluctantly, the main reason is that the communication distance is too long, there are obstacles in communication, and if the movement is too large, there is a risk of being discovered by the outside world. The Mother replied.
"Well, then don't be in a hurry, just wait for some more time to act!" Zhao Xinglan said casually.
Anyway, these treasures have been buried at the bottom of the sea for so many years, and it doesn't hurt to wait, don't rush this time.
On the innermost side of the sub-base, she unexpectedly saw a house, to be precise, a living area suitable for human habitation, arranged according to the layout of three bedrooms and two living rooms, bedrooms, study rooms, bathrooms, kitchens, and the facilities inside are all brand new, all of which are her favorite styles, only various household appliances need to be purchased by herself from the outside.
"It's really good, it's rare that you have a heart. Zhao Xinglan said with satisfaction, so that when she has free time in the future, she can come here to stay.
An hour later, Zhao Xinglan returned on a humpback whale.
By the time we got back on the beach and drove back to the Esplanade campus, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.
The mobile phone message prompt sounded, she glanced at it, and found that it was sent by Yun Feiyang, to the effect that Professor Tang's application had been successfully approved, and the relevant scientific research funds would soon be in place, and the university was looking for those well-known local pharmaceutical companies in Binhai City, and planned to select one or two of them to cooperate and jointly develop the first batch of new drugs.
After thinking about it, she drove the car into the garage, then picked up her mobile phone and replied with a message, asking which companies would be shortlisted, the specific cooperation content and the corresponding distribution of benefits and division of responsibilities.
A few minutes later, Yun Feiyang sent a list of pharmaceutical companies, of which the first one was Hu's Pharmaceutical Group.
Zhao Xinglan's face turned cold, this Hu Pharmaceutical Group, if she remembers correctly, it should be Hu Yuanming's family business.
