Chapter 175: Nameless Island
When the economic crisis comes, any investment is risky, including hotels, and buying RMB is considered a very risky investment.
Mo Fan discussed with Zhao Jiyang and decided to take out 890 million US dollars to entrust Phipps Bank to buy RMB...... The $13 million left for pocket money.
Well, $13 million in pocket money, the world of real tyrants, mortals don't understand.
Chen Zhong and Chen Chen looked at each other......
Mo Fan called Phipps Bank and came over tomorrow to sign the contract.
Mo Fan hung up the phone, handed Kyle and the Chen brothers a cigarette each, and said to Zhao Jiyang: "I'll go back and clean up the house, are you playing here?"
"Let's go back together. Zhao Jiyang got up and looked at Chen Zhong and Chen Chen: "Let's go back first, call me if we have something." ”
"Okay. The Chen brothers got up and sent them a few steps.
Tuhrahra Island, in fact, is quite large, and it is really uncomfortable to have no car.
When they got home, Zhao Jiyang and Liang Yue cleaned up the living room, Mo Fan pushed the lawn mower out to build the lawn in the yard, and luckily, the dog who was a mother jumped around Mo Fan, and the seven little Erha followed and ran around......
Steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, steamed buns, flower rolls, hamburgers, tofu brains, the names of the seven little erha, Mo Fan couldn't recognize who was who, and Zhao Jiyang couldn't recognize it...... In particular, there are a few Erha who look almost identical.
Tidy up the lawn, build flowers and plants in the yard, and Zhao Jiyang and the others also cleaned the house.
"Are you thinking about buying a trolley?" Zhao Jiyang said.
"I'm thinking about it too. Leave this matter to me, you go to Meng Xi's house to see if there is anything to eat. Mo Fan broke away from Zhao Jiyang and Liang Yue, picked up the phone and called Pani, the general manager of the material distribution company, to buy a new Ferrari convertible, a red one, a Lamborghini bull, black. Get another Ford F150 pickup. Lamborghini is to be shipped from the nearest New Zealand, and the Ford F150 is available in Papeete.
The Ford F150 was delivered early the next morning.
Zhao Jiyang also got up early to cook, put on work clothes, and went out to inspect the work today to see how the construction of the nursery site of the farm was, and other work.
"Kailiwa 44 goes out, it may rain today, remember to put on a life jacket......" Mo Fan sent Zhao Jiyang and them to the dock, telling them all the way.
"It's verbose. Rest assured, I know the safety rules. Zhao Jiyang said and kissed Mo Fan on the face, took Liang Yue's hand, and walked over to Chen Zhong and Chen Chen with his assistant.
"Isn't my cousin-in-law going with you?" Chen Zhong beckoned to Mo Fan and said.
"Mo Fan has something to do, and it is estimated that he will not be free all day. ”
After eight o'clock, the representative of Phipps Bank came over, and there was a previous exchange with Kyle, Mo Fan entrusted the bank to buy RMB at the RMB exchange rate of more than 7.75 yuan, and how much could he buy.
After the bankers left, Kyle handed Mo Fan a cigar: "The price of gold has risen again. ”
Mo Fan lit a cigar: "$1,372 an ounce, yesterday's price, I'm also paying attention to gold." ”
"Our bank has assessed that the price of gold will continue to rise for a long time this year. Is there any interest in reinvesting in gold mines?"
"What kind of gold mine?"
"Angola. ”
"Africa?" Mo Fan frowned and waved his hand: "Not interested." ”
"There is a gold mine for sale in South Africa. The location of the gold mine is not safe...... Locals hate American investment and prefer to work with Chinese. Can you help......"
Mo Fan interrupted: "You can't chew too much, and there are many ways to make money." The financial crisis is about to come, and those countries in Africa will definitely be even more uncomfortable......"
"The profits are huge. Kyle understands this, of course, but the profits are worth the risk.
"How much profit?"
"At least 30 times the profit. ”
"How much to invest?"
"About 200 million. ”
"30 times the profit, 6 billion!" Mo Fan took a deep breath, he was moved by such a big profit, but he still shook his head: "The reputation of South Africans is not very good. The land reform in the past few years is still in chaos. I'm afraid that the investment of 200 million yuan will be wasted......"
"There aren't many places to invest. ”
"The outlook for real estate in China is good. Mo Fan smiled.
"The depreciation of the renminbi to 8 yuan is a gamble on the fortune of the country. If it wins, the Chinese government could rectify the housing bubble economy, and China's housing prices are now very high. If the financial war fails...... Investing in Chinese real estate is indeed a good choice. ”
"You find other agents. I don't bother to participate in these messy things......" Mo Fan said and looked at the time, it was almost 10 o'clock: "I still have something to do, let's talk about it later." ”
Kyle smiled bitterly and nodded: "The matter of the seven-star super luxury resort, you have to give me a reply, do you want to recruit shareholders." ”
"We'll talk about that later. "The economic crisis will reduce the income of the vast majority of people, and now that the politics of the Tuamotu Islands have stabilized, it can still be seen that there are fewer tourists than in previous years. Now you have to think carefully about starting a big project......
Mo Fan drove to the airport and took a helicopter to the research institute on the island of Makatea.
Previously, the extensive search for Blackstone Island had been fruitless, and Mo Fan believed that Blackstone Island was most likely to be on the two nuclear test islands, and Professor Matt and their application to explore the outer edge of the island was allowed, but still found nothing.
"Mo. Professor Matt came out to greet Mo Fan.
"Still haven't found Blackstone Island?"
"We've reorganized the events of the year. Matt shook his head, made an inviting gesture, and went to the office: "I found that there is a big problem, it is possible that the island does not exist at all......"
As the parties to the shipwreck, Mania, Mania's father, and the wife of the deceased Maloya, they were all there.
Aaminah is the wife of Maloya, and until Maloya died, Aaminah stayed by Maloya's side, the closest to her.
"Mr. Mo. Aaminah stood up and saluted.
"Sit. Mo Fan pressed his hand, sat down on the chairman's seat, took out the jade bones, and said, "Do you remember the last time you got along with Maloya?"
Maloya said he floated in the sea for six days after the shipwreck, after which he came across the island of black rocks...... A very small island, half a month later he found a desert island, lived on the desert island for a long time, and made a raft to return to Tahiti. The jade bone in your hand is found on a black rocky island. Aaminah said solemnly.
Aaminah was talking about discovery, but suddenly she found it, and what Mania's father said was that he had built a raft and found a desert island......
At that time, it was calculated that it would take 13 days for Maloya to return, and according to the wind speed at that time, it could sail up to 3,000 nautical miles, or 5,556 kilometers, with a tailwind. However, in practice, this is very difficult to do, at least halved...... Plus, the 13-day voyage was a perfect way to avoid the inhabited islands.
The shipwreck occurred not far from the southern island, and the wind direction at that time was eastward......
"Professor, can you find the direction map of that year? Mo Fan looked at Matt.
Matt shook his head: "Only the monsoon map." ”
Mo Fan looked at the monsoon map, compared it with the ocean current map, thought for a while, and said: "Taking Tahiti as a point, the Tuamotu Islands in the east are densely populated, and you will definitely encounter inhabited islands during the 13-day voyage." ”
"Easter Island has a floating island legend. Back then, would Maloya have had good luck meeting a floating island...... Otherwise, there are too many questions that don't make sense. If there is a floating island, you should be able to reach this area in 15 days with the current...... Counting the 13-day return voyage, if it is a headwind, it is estimated that it will only be able to sail a few hundred kilometers...... Here it is, the Cook Islands. Mo Fan pointed to an unnamed island on the map: "What is the name of this island?"
"I don't know. Matt shook his head, then clicked on the satellite map to check, and there was no name on the satellite map, so he called it 'Nameless Island' for the time being.
The location of the Nameless Island is due southwest of the Lower Island of Tahiti.
Professor Matt bit his finger and looked at the other professors, "This point you put forward is so shocking. ”
