Chapter 1270: The Benefits of Background
Chapter 1270 The Benefits of Background!
……
Three days passed quickly, and under Liu Dong's treatment, the old man's body had gradually recovered his health. If it weren't for the repeated opposition of the family, I'm afraid the old man would have his own home a long time ago.
"It's enough to have Xiaodong, don't let those quacks give me needles every day!" Listening to the old man's angry voice, Liu Dong smiled, pushed the door and walked in.
Looking at his father who was washing his grandfather's feet, and his mother who was supporting his grandmother next to him, the warm scene made Liu Dong involuntarily have a faint smile on his face.
"Grandpa, how are you feeling today?"
"Xiaodong, come on, come and sit next to grandpa!" Seeing his grandson come in, the old man hurriedly beckoned to Liu Dong with a smile.
And after hearing this, Liu Dong also hurriedly walked over, "Dad, I'll wash grandpa!"
"No need! Chat with your grandfather for a while, I'm almost done here!" Liu Jianqing said with a smile.
"Okay, no need to wash! Wash again, Lao Tzu's feet should give your kid a bald skin!" After muttering, the old man took his feet out of the footbath.
"Si'er, just wipe him! Dead old man, my son is still talking strange about washing your feet!" the old lady complained with a smile on her face.
"I'm talking weird things, I'm ......!"
"Grandpa, grandpa, it's time for us to take medicine!" For fear that grandparents would quarrel again, Liu Dong hurriedly interrupted the old man's words.
"Listen to your grandson, take medicine! I'm too lazy to talk to you old woman!"
"Hehe, Si'er, your father will not spare people all his life!" the old lady laughed.
Poured a glass of water, handed it to the old man, and then watched him take the Jade Toad Heart Protector Pill he had prepared, Liu Dong took the water cup and asked with a smile, "Grandpa." How are you feeling today?"
"Much better! I feel better than when I wasn't sick, like twenty years younger!" said the old man, patting his chest and rejoicing.
"That's good, we'll be able to go home in a while!" Liu Dong said.
"I want to go home now!"
"The doctor said, you still need to be hospitalized for a period of more observation!" said the old lady next to her.
"The doctor said that those quacks are not as good as my grandson's!"
"Grandpa, you might as well stay in this hospital for a few more days. When I'm completely cured of your disease, we'll go home!" Liu Dong hurriedly said.
"It can be cured at home!" the old man still didn't want to be hospitalized. However, the opposition is much quieter.
Old children, old children, old people are like children, and they also need to be coaxed!
"Squeak......!"
At this moment, Uncle Liu Weiguo pushed the door and walked in, but he was obviously not the only one who came this time.
"Dad, the Prime Minister has come to see you!"
As the door opened, the prime minister, whom Liu Dong had seen before, strode in with a smile on his face, followed by many central officials. and media crews with cameras on their shoulders.
"Hello, old chief, I have come to visit you on behalf of the party and the state!"
"Thanks to the care of the party and the government, I am much better now!"
"That's good, an old comrade like you is the wealth of our country!"
"Hehe, it's old, it's useless!"
After the usual greetings and discussions, the prime minister walked out with the people.
But after a while, Liu Weiguo pushed the ward open. beckoned to Liu Dong and said, "Xiaodong, come out!"
Hear the words. Liu Dong, who was moved in his heart, handed the peeled apple to his grandfather, "Grandpa, grandma, parents, I'll go out!"
"Go, the old man is mysterious, and he can't say anything to his face!" complained the old lady.
"What do you know! You can say whatever you want to say in a while, and there is no need to give up the conditions that you should strive for, the Liu family will back you up!"
In the past few days since I woke up, the old man has already understood the situation of his little grandson very clearly through the descriptions of several sons.
"I know Grandpa. Don't worry!"
After speaking, Liu Dong turned around and opened the door and walked out.
Watching his back disappear, the old man nodded with satisfaction, "Wei Qing, you have cultivated a good son!"
"It's also Xiaodong who fights for himself!"
Although he said this, Liu Jianqing's face couldn't help but show a proud expression. Even Song Xiangmei, who was taking care of the old lady next to her, was the same.
The excellence of their son Liu Dong has always been their proudest and proudest thing.
……
When I got out of the ward, I saw that Liu Dong's guess was correct. The media personnel and most of the officials who accompanied the prime minister are gone. In addition to his uncle, as well as the old man in Baodanjing who he had seen when he went to Zhongnanhai to see the prime minister last time, and the middle-aged secretary who made notes, the only extra person was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with an elegant temperament and gold-rimmed glasses.
"Hello, Prime Minister!"
After the prime minister on the throne nodded, Uncle Liu Weiguo beckoned, patted his side and said with a smile: "Come, Xiaodong, sit here!"
Uncle obviously meant to support himself, so Liu Dong did not refuse, and strode over and sat on the sofa on Liu Weiguo's left.
Looking at Liu Dong sitting next to Liu Weiguo, the prime minister quickly swept over the two of them, and said with a smile: "No wonder I always felt very familiar with Liu Dong when I first met him, as if I had seen him somewhere." It turns out that he is still the grandson of the old chief and the nephew of Vice Chairman Liu?"
"Because of some misunderstandings in our generation, Xiaodong has been outside for more than 20 years, and now he has finally recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors!" Liu Weiguo patted Liu Dong on the shoulder and smiled.
He has always been very satisfied with this wonderful nephew.
"It's a pity that Xiaodong didn't enter the army or politics, otherwise, with his ability to do business, his achievements in politics or military circles would definitely not be lower than Guoliang! When the time comes, with the two of them supporting the Liu family, then the third generation of the Liu family will really stand up! In another ten years, we will be able to retire with peace of mind!" Thinking of this, Liu Weiguo sighed in his heart.
Despite the importance of the military, politics and economics, thousands of years of tradition in China still make politics and military far more important than economic!
Of course, this situation is gradually changing. However, Liu Weiguo, who is already in his early sixties, obviously has a better view of military and political affairs, and he will not change much!
"Vice Chairman Liu's family is reunited, and I, an outsider, are here to congratulate me first!"
"The Prime Minister is gracious!
After nodding, the prime minister looked at the young man who was sitting calmly on the side, "Liu Dong, I think you can guess why I called you out now, right?"
"Yes!"
Liu Dong nodded.
The current situation must be the many investment plans mentioned in Zhong*Nanhai earlier, as well as the most important transaction of 1,500 tons of gold, and now the central government has made a decision.
After glancing at Liu Dong, who was listening solemnly, the prime minister continued: "First of all, 1,500 tons of gold, the state will buy it at the current international gold price, that is, $400 an ounce, and the total value of 1,500 tons of gold is $21,164.4 million. In addition, in order to reward you for your initiative to sell gold to the state this time, rounding up, 1,500 tons of gold, the state will pay you 21.2 billion US dollars!"
"Thank you to the country and the government!" Although Liu Dong's tone was full of gratitude, he was powerless to complain in his heart.
You must know that the price of gold in New York is not $400 an ounce, but $413 an ounce. Although $13 doesn't seem like much, adding 1,500 tons of this figure will invisibly make Liu Dong earn nearly $700 million.
However, despite the $700 million short, Liu Dong still agreed to the deal. After all, if a country comes forward to buy it, it can also save him a lot of trouble. After all, even if he had Bank of America, Standard Chartered Bank and Hanhua Bank in hand, it would be extremely laborious and costly to launder and sell such a huge amount of gold into funds that could be spent.
If you calculate it this way, the price of 700 million dollars is not so high!
Even Liu Dong suspected that if it weren't for the fact that his relationship with the Liu family had spread among the high-level, he would not have gotten the price of $400 an ounce.
“…… According to our previous verbal agreement, for $21.2 billion, the state will pay $15 billion in dollar foreign exchange. The remaining $6.2 billion will be converted into 51.46 billion Chinese dollars at the current exchange rate between Huaxia and the U.S. dollar!
After a pause, the prime minister looked at Liu Dong and said, "How about it, what I said is right, right?"
"That's right, Prime Minister!"
"That's good, if that's right, you can sign this contract!"
After receiving the contract handed over by the prime minister, Liu Dong took a general look at it, and after there was no discrepancy, he happily signed his name on it.
He believed that even if he hadn't read it in detail, there would be no pitfalls in the contract. Because before, his uncle Liu Weiguo must have specially reviewed this contract.
"In addition, the Ministry of Industry has also approved your investment in a petrochemical plant in Baotou and the laying of an oil pipeline to Outer Mongolia, but the refined oil produced by your petrochemical plant must be handed over to PetroChina for distribution, and cannot be sold privately!"
For this, Liu Dong has long expected this!
The iron barrel made of three barrels of oil, even if he has the strong background of the old Liu family, it is difficult to break. There are so many stakes involved.
After Liu Dong nodded, the prime minister continued: "As for the matter of the railway, ......!"
After looking at Liu Weiguo, who had been silent beside Liu Dong, the prime minister continued: "After the central government's research, you are allowed to invest in the China-Mongolia railway, and the railway in Outer Mongolia is not counted, and the domestic railway section is also invested by you." The right of way belongs to the state, but the right to operate the railway can be handed over to you for 50 years!"
"Really?" Liu Dong said in surprise.
It was a real bonus.
