Chapter 21 Auntie's Business
By the time Liu Xun drove back home, it was already slightly dark, and the sun had just set.
From the morning when a few people entered Longze Liyuan together to now, it happened to be a whole day, but for some people in the officialdom of Changping City, this is not a simple day, this day, whether it is for Liu Xun's family or for Li Xiangkui, Rao Changshui, Liu Dongluo, Zhong Weimin, Wang Zhonghe and these people, it is an unusual day, it can be said that some people are happy and some are worried.
Hehe, I'm afraid that they still don't realize that this big wave of officialdom that is about to break through the wind was actually originally caused by a sixteen-year-old boy who seemed harmless to humans and animals at this time, and it has been fueling its development.
"Xiaowan is here, Xiaojun just called and said that you were coming to the house, I thought you were joking, the United States is so far away, you can come back if you want to, this bear child, and let you run back from the United States."
"Sister!"
As soon as they entered the house, Zhou Huiwen and Zhou Peiwan said hello and took the bottom stool brought back and twisted Liu Xun's ears, "You stinky boy, now you finally know that you are going home, where have you gone crazy these days?" I don't dare to come back, I see that your guts are getting fatter and fatter. β
"Mom!" Liu Xun screamed a little excitedly, and regardless of Zhou Huiwen's black face and the hand that had reached out to the feather duster, he hugged her, "Mom, I will never leave you again, never leave ...... again"
"What's wrong with this kid?" Being held by Liu Xun, Zhou Huiwen was also a little at a loss, her two hands stretched out and she didn't know where to put it, so after about ten seconds, she seemed to think of something, and her right hand touched Liu Xun's forehead, "This kid, isn't it a fever, Xiaowan, you go find a thermometer." β
Liu Xun couldn't help crying and laughing, and most of the brewing emotions were dispelled, obviously he was too excited, but his mother suspected that his brain was burned, which made him speechless.
But Zhou Peiwan saw that Liu Xun was a little uncontrollable excited when he saw his sister and himself just now, and when he saw himself, he seemed to be even more excited, that kind of excitement was from the heart of his feelings and excitement, and there was a faint helpless look in his eyes, that kind of look, which made Zhou Peiwan feel heartache when he saw it.
She didn't know what Liu Xun's heart had gone through to become like this, but she thought it was related to the kidnapping, thinking about it, she became more and more disgusted with Li Xiangkui's father and son, and she couldn't wait to give the father and son a verdict now, and the eyes that looked at Liu Xun became softer and softer, full of maternal brilliance.
Liu Xun, who was almost suffocated by his mother's words "his brain has a fever", forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and fooled Zhou Huiwen with the words he had arranged in advance with his father, and when his mother confirmed that he did not have a fever and went into the kitchen to cook, he quietly smiled at Zhou Peiwan.
"Auntie, don't let my mother know about my kidnapping for the time being, my dad and I don't want her to worry, so don't tell her."
Zhou Peiwan nodded approvingly, but thought about it, "Although I can hide it for the time being, my sister will know sooner or later, Li Xiangkui's crime is not a trivial matter, and it may spread when the time comes, especially in the compound of the agency, there must be a lot of discussion, but it is not something that a few of us can hide from it." β
Liu Xun also rubbed his forehead in distress, "Concealing it for a day is a day, and after a long time, she won't be too excited if she knows, Li Xiangkui's case, whether it is taken over by the province or handled by the municipal bureau, will be limited to a range, and they may be sentenced according to law, but what is announced is not the case, the deputy director of the city bureau kidnapped the family of another deputy director and the criminal police of the serious crime team, the impact of this transmission is not good, it is estimated that this bridge will be vaguely passed, in short, how long can it be hidden." β
"By the way, auntie, you suddenly decided to come back from the United States, what about your business in the United States, the way you fooled my mother just now didn't work for me, how can business be so simple, I remember aunt, you seem to be doing entrepot trade."
"When did you become so interested in your aunt's business?" Zhou Peiwan glanced at Liu Xun in surprise, she hadn't seen Liu Xun so interested before.
stood up and combed the hair on his forehead slightly, a few strands of naughty hair flew disobediently from his ears to his forehead, and the semi-translucent yellowish light in the living room reflected on that perfect cheek, which instantly made Liu Xun a little distracted.
"Auntie, just tell me about it! I think it's very interesting that my aunt does entrepot trade, my aunt, your company seems to be the counterpart of the Soviet Union and North America. β
"I used to think you weren't interested in these things, but last time your brother-in-law asked you to help him in the future, you still looked like you were dragging and ignoring it, but now you're so eager."
Liu Xun smiled shyly, "By the way, auntie, the Soviet Union has been in turmoil recently, and your company should be in a recession recently, how can you still raise funds." β
He began to use his brain step by step to lead the conversation in the direction he wanted, in his previous life, his aunt's entrepot trading company was in a trade with the Soviet Union by partners and trading partners to plot together, and finally put the entire company in, but unfortunately the entire society in the Soviet Union at that time was in turmoil, and finally did not understand the whole inside story, this time there is a chance, Liu Xun naturally wants to understand it well.
Hmph, the so-called coming and not being rude, since they plotted against their aunt in their previous life, don't blame yourself for cheating on them.
"The Soviet Union is really not very stable now, but the so-called wealth and danger are sought, the scale of my aunt's company, I can't even turn up a small wave on Wall Street, and I am too unwilling, I always have to take some risks, your aunt and I still have an adventurous nature in our bones."
Liu Xun nodded in agreement, Zhou Peiwan is a world-famous MBA graduate of Harvard Business School, but her MBA, her favorite is the turbulence of the Wall Street capital market, but unfortunately the lack of original capital accumulation, it is not easy to squeeze into Wall Street, not just have talent and dreams, so in the early days, you can only accumulate capital by doing entrepot trade, but in just a few years, she started a company with a market value of millions from scratch, and she is also amazing, but God is jealous of talents, When he had the heart to enter Wall Street, he was plotted.
"Auntie, you raised millions of funds from your uncle this time, plus foreign companies, do you want to play a big game? However, I think it's better for you to take it easy and play steadily, Auntie. After a pause, seeing Zhou Peiwan's eyes a little surprised, she continued, "The situation on the Soviet side has been chaotic recently, and there is a lot of news about the Soviet Union in China, and I have been concerned about this news recently, I see, the Soviet Union is only afraid that it will not be able to withstand it, and the huge Soviet Union, hehe, I am only afraid of ......."
"You mean the USSR is going to collapse?" Zhou Peiwan's face rippled with a smile that could not see through the meaning, this is September, the coup d'Γ©tat in the Soviet Union on August 19, more than a month away from now, it seems to be on the verge of disintegration, and it seems that it can continue to be supported, and there is a lot of speculation in the outside world, Liu Xun's point of view cannot be said to be the mainstream view now.
Liu Xun nodded, "According to my observation, it is inevitable that the Soviet Union will evolve peacefully, and its internal corruption has reached the extreme, coupled with the influence at home and abroad, I can't see that in two or three months, the behemoth of the Soviet Union will probably cease to exist, so I think it is better to slow down the recent trade between my aunt and the Soviet Union, which is better than a bamboo basket to draw water at that time." β
Zhou Peiwan frowned slightly, she was aiming at the Soviet market at this time, in fact, on the one hand, she was based on her adventurous nature, unwilling to make a small fuss in entrepot trade, and wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the Soviet Union to make a lot of money and then enter Wall Street, on the other hand, she was advised by several of her partners, and unanimously suggested that they join forces to take the opportunity to become bigger in the Soviet Union.
I don't know why, looking at Liu Xun, who was a bit of a pointer at this time, he told him about the company, but he forgot for a moment that this kid is only a high school student in his first year of high school, and there is nothing to hide about some confidential things, Liu Xun also listened carefully, he was no stranger to entrepot trade, but he was a little grateful for his aunt's trust.
But listening to it, Liu Xun's face went from being serious at the beginning to slowly relaxing, and in the end, he finally couldn't help laughing, and the laughter made Zhou Peiwan a little inexplicable, and Zhou Huiwen poked her head out of the kitchen in surprise and looked at it twice.
"Auntie, are you saying that you got a long-term high-interest loan of 30 million rubles?" Liu Xun's voice couldn't help but tremble a little, only he from his previous life could understand what this loan meant.
"yes!" Zhou Peiwan was a little strange, I don't know why Liu Xun was so excited when she heard the news, "My company in the United States is doing entrepot trade, and the scale is too small, so it has been cooperating with several companies, recently taking advantage of the chaotic situation in the Soviet Union, everyone is ready to join forces to make a big deal, expand the market in the Soviet Union, but unfortunately the scale of funds is insufficient, and it is just a drop in the bucket to get a few million from your uncle, so I simply took out a loan from the Soviet Union." β
"Auntie, you mean that you got a loan from the Soviet Union in order to expand your trade in the Soviet Union? However, 30 million rubles, even if the ruble to the dollar in 90 years fell from 0.6 to 1 to 1.8 to 1, but that is close to 20 million US dollars, and it is also a long-term high-interest loan, aunt, the size of your company is at most two or three million US dollars, it stands to reason that you cannot get so many loans, unless insider trading is involved. For some reason, while being happy, Liu Xun had a faint strange feeling in his heart.
Zhou Peiwan didn't expect Liu Xun to know so much about the exchange rate of the Soviet currency, so she also explained, "The loan of 30 million rubles is actually a joint loan from several companies, but in order to facilitate trade, it nominally belongs to my company, and it is temporarily in my name." Moreover, this money was originally used to expand trade channels in the Soviet Union, plus one of the partners was very well-connected in the Soviet Union, and the interest rate was very high, so this could be loaned, as for the process and cost in the middle, I don't know much about the process. β
Liu Xun nodded, the ** in the late Soviet Union is unimaginable to outsiders, the public information is too pediatric, if there is a relationship in the bank of the Soviet Union, as long as you are willing to spend money, don't say 30 million rubles, it is about 300 million rubles have the opportunity to be loaned.
