Chapter 355: You Burn My National Flag (I)
"Hello, Mr. Xiao!"
A somewhat stiff Chinese sounded on the side. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was a white man about 1.9 meters tall, about forty years old, with a golden beard on his chin, and a pair of green eyes that sank deeply, looking a little enthusiastic.
"Hello, Mr. Smith." Xiao Jiu shook hands with the other party and made a gesture of please: "Please sit down." ”
The secretary handed the guest a cup of hot tea, and the middle-aged white man politely said "thank you" and began to get straight to the point.
"Mr. Xiao, I heard that you are interested in coming to our Australia to acquire a diamond deposit?" Smith blinked, said.
"Mr. Smith, where did you get the news?" Xiao Jiu's eyes narrowed and asked.
"Naturally, I have access to information." Smith said with a confident and calm face.
Xiao Jiu smiled and was silent.
Of course, he could guess that it must be the other two mining companies that had a ghost in the other two mining companies that would reveal the information to Tuoli.
"Mr. Xiao. In fact, if you want to seek a deal, we are also a good choice. Smith smiled and took a sip of tea.
A hint of surprise appeared on Xiao Jiu's face.
Tuoli is interested in selling the diamond mine?
"In the past three years, our company's main business, iron ore, has been very sluggish." Smith shook his head and explained with a sigh: "Therefore, the head office wants to sell some of the non-core assets to make the financial statements presented to investors look better. ”
"I see." Xiao Jiu looked at the other party and asked seriously, "Mr. Smith, are you sure that you can negotiate with me on behalf of Tuoli Company?" ”
"Absolutely." Hearing a hint of intent on formal negotiation from Xiao Jiu's words, Smith said, "The Chinese market is the most important market for our company...... And I'm in charge of the Chinese market. ”
The meaning is that he has a pivotal position within the Tuoli Group!
"I do have plans to buy a diamond mine." Xiao Jiu stared at the other party and asked, "I don't know that Tuoli Company is going to sell that diamond mine to me?" ”
Smith's face was extremely calm, but his heart was full of joy: "Mr. Xiao, we are going to sell Bronte to you. ”
"Bronte?" Xiao Jiu's brows were slightly raised: "That deposit, isn't it always very profitable?" ”
According to public information gathered by him and his intermediaries, the deposit was profitable as much as $17 million last year, which is a good cash cow.
"Mr. Xiao, when the iron ore industry was booming in the past, our company could sell each ton of iron ore at a high price of 120 US dollars." Mr. Smith's golden brow furrowed slightly: "But now, the price of a ton of iron ore in the market is only forty dollars. ”
He's lying!
Judging from the other party's slightly contracted eyeballs and the stiff muscles when he frowned, Xiao Jiu sneered in his heart.
"Mr. Smith, but, according to the information we've gathered, the situation at the Brunte deposit isn't very good." Xiao Jiu seemed to be pointing.
"Oh, are you talking about the local union asking for higher pay?" Smith shook his head and said, "It's just a minor issue. Mr. Xiao, no matter which mine you buy, you have to deal with the local union, don't you? ”
Not for this reason!
Knowing from the flow of blood and the masseter muscles that the other party was lying, Xiao Jiu smiled: "Smith, what is wrong with the Brunte deposit, you should know better than me." ”
Smith's face froze slightly.
This Chinese tyrant can't really find anything, right?
"Mr. Xiao is really joking." Smith laughed and chiped, "What can be wrong with our deposits?" ”
"Little Lingling." Xiao Jiu ignored Smith and instead sent a message to Xiao Lingling.
"Hello, Ninth Master, it's a pleasure to serve you." Xiao Lingling's reply was as fast as usual.
"Help me find out what the public information is about the Bronte deposit." Xiao Jiudao.
"Okay."
Two seconds later, a simple sorted document was put on Xiao Jiu's virtual platform.
Opening this information, Xiao Jiu only glanced at it, and his brows furrowed.
"There are geologists who estimate that the Brunte deposit can be mined for up to 10 years?" Xiao Jiu subconsciously glanced at this piece of information for more information.
This is a message from five years ago, and it is not remarkable in the vast English-language web. Even, even if ordinary people want to find this information with keywords, they can't find it.
"Ninth Master, this information just appeared on an Australian website back then, and it was deleted." Xiao Lingling explained on the side: "I looked up the information of that expert and found that he used to work for Tuoli Company. ”
Flipping down three or four more pieces of information, and according to Smith's performance, Xiao Jiu already agreed with the first piece of information he saw.
Compared with other deposits in Tuoli, the Brunte deposit is indeed about to be exhausted!
Xiao Jiu couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
This Australian company originally wanted to kill him as a wronged leader.
"100 million dollars." Xiao Jiu suddenly spoke: "Mr. Smith, I can bid $100 million for this deposit." ”
Smith, who was still talking, was slightly stunned when he heard this.
"Mr. Xiao, you're not kidding, are you?"
This Chinese tyrant, since he can bid 300 million for the Farah mine, and for the almost profitable Bronte mine, the bid must be at least 250 million!?
"Mr. Xiao, if you make this offer, it will only take less than six years, and you will be able to recover the cost of this investment." Smith said with some dissatisfaction: "Your bid is so low, we can't negotiate." ”
As if insulted, Smith stood up and pretended to leave Xiao Jiu's office.
"Mr. Smith, this time my bid is 100 million, but if we negotiate again next time, then my bid will be reduced to 90 million." Xiao Jiu didn't mean to stand up and send him off, and said.
Smith stopped when he wanted to leave.
For the first time, he looked at Xiao Jiu's face with real annoyance.
"What's wrong with the Brunte mine, I'm sure you know better than I do." Xiao Jiu smiled slightly: "The valuation of this mine within your company cannot exceed 90 million. ”
can put forward a purchase offer of 100 million, Xiao Jiu is already very generous.
A depleted mine will only be able to reduce its production volume dramatically in the next five years, and it is impossible to maintain the profit of $1,700 last year!
If he hadn't been in a hurry to find a "source" for the rough pink diamond at hand, he would never have done such a wrong!
"You ......," Smith said again.
"On this issue, I think it's better for you to ask your superiors for instructions." Xiao Jiu kindly reminded.
