"Hey! Over here! ”

At a glance, he saw Ruan Yumei, who was standing in the crowd, and Li Yan waved her over. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Coming so fast? I thought you would need at least half an hour! ”

"Not long after I came out of the warehouse just now, you called me, and it's work time, and the traffic is not congested, so it's naturally faster."

Taking the paper bag containing gold in Ruan Yumei's hand, Li Yan led her into the antique workshop.

Ivan's professional inspectors also arrived here a few minutes ago, and after a brief introduction to Ruan Yumei with a few people, Li Yan took out the gold sample from the paper bag and handed it to Ivan.

After a few cursory glances at it in his hand, Ivan handed the sample to the inspectors.

The waiting time was short and long, and Ivan seemed even more anxious than Li Yan. Touching his bare head, he walked around the room anxiously.

"Why does he seem to care more than you do?" Poked Li Yan, Ruan Yumei wondered.

"I'm wondering! It stands to reason that with an old man like him, he shouldn't be out of shape like this. The more nervous he is now, the more he will let himself be passive in the subsequent negotiations. Shaking his head, Li Yan was also very puzzled.

"I guess he has something unspeakable, or maybe he needs this gold urgently. But whatever the reason, we should take advantage of this and fight for more benefits for us! There was a sly look in her beautiful eyes, and Ruan Yumei had already begun to calculate the other party.

"Hehe, you're looking more and more like a profiteer!"

"Humph! Profiteer? It's not like I'm tired of working for you! After all, you're the real big profiteer! ”

In the bickering between Li Yan and the two, the test results were also released.

"How? Is the gold content high? What is the value? Ivan, who had been waiting impatiently, rushed forward with an arrow step and asked with an expectant face.

"It has been detected that the gold content of the sample is 78.4%, which belongs to the 18k grade of gold!"

Relieved, Ivan nodded reassuringly, turned to Li Yan and said, "Mr. Li, you also heard the test results, how about it, are you going to make a move?" ”

"Of course!" Li Yan picked up the water cup and took a sip of tea gently, "However, can I inquire about something?" ”

"Huh? What is it? ”

"Mr. Ivan, why do you care so much about my gold? It stands to reason that a predator like you can handle more than 10 million transactions every day. Even if my gold is a lot of money, it won't make you lose your temper, right? ”

"Hehe, you can see it."

Rolling his eyes, Li Yan complained in his heart: "Nonsense, you almost put the word anxious on the door of your head!" As long as you're not a fool, anyone can see it! ”

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Ivan hesitated for a while before he explained: "That's the case, I have an overseas business, and it has reached the stage of delivery, but the seller has temporarily changed his mind and has to let me settle the account in gold." ”

"That's a multi-million dollar deal, and I can't make up that much gold for a while! But just at this moment, Brother Lin called me and said that he had a large amount of gold here, so I rushed over in such a hurry! ”

"Oh, I see!" Touching his chin, Li Yan rolled his eyes and asked Ivan in a low voice: "Your business shouldn't be related to Ukraine, right?" ”

"Y-How do you know?"

"Guess!" Li Yan smiled and continued: "I also guessed that this should be an arms deal!" ”

Ivan's expression was shocked, his eyes were full of surprise, and he pointed at Li Yan and doubted, "Who are you?" How do you know so many things? ”

"Don't worry, I have no ill will towards you!" Li Yan waved his hand and explained: "From Lin Lao, I heard that Mr. Ivan is a predator specializing in smuggling and arms trading. Since it is a big business of tens of millions of dollars, and the other party has temporarily changed his mind and has to use gold as payment for the transaction, the result is naturally self-evident! ”

"What can you see about this?"

"Smuggling is about fast in and fast out, and trading in the shortest time and in the fastest way! Therefore, most of the smuggling business uses transfer settlement, which is convenient and fast! ”

"The arms trade, on the other hand, is completely different, and both sides of the trade are ruthless actors who have gone through life and death. The more such people are, the more they believe in their eyes, so they generally use the settlement method of paying money with one hand and delivering goods with one hand. According to you, the transaction should have gone smoothly, but when the time came, the seller suddenly changed his mind and had to trade in gold. ”

"The only reason for this is that the currency of the seller's country has suddenly depreciated significantly! In order to preserve the value, he specially chose to trade with gold. ”

As if to study Li Yan, Ivan asked: "Then why not Russia?" Wasn't the ruble also cut in half because of the sanctions imposed by Western countries and forced to depreciate sharply? ”

"It is true that the ruble has also depreciated significantly, but Russia does not meet another requirement, so it cannot be it!"

"Another request? What is it? ”

"Amount!" Li Yan analyzed: "You said that this is a business worth tens of millions of dollars, and since this is the case, the amount of arms traded is naturally very huge!" Russia is now in tension with Western countries led by the United States, and with its sending troops to Syria to support the Assad regime, its arms reserves should be very tight, so it is impossible for it to flow such large-scale arms! ”

"In this way, the only possibility is Ukraine that is in the midst of war! As a military power second only to Russia among the former Soviet republics, its weapons reserves are naturally very sufficient. ”

"With the chaos of war, order collapsed, and the generals who held the military power cut their land one after another to 'claim the king' and became a country within a country. However, with the strong attack of the Ukrainian government army, these conspirators, who are about to be exterminated, naturally began to plan for their own future. ”

"But they have nothing but guns! Therefore, smuggling arms has become their only and inevitable choice! In troubled times, all currencies are unconvincing. Only gold, the most primitive currency, can make people feel at ease! Therefore, your trading partner will temporarily change his mind and choose to trade with gold! ”

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Sure enough, it's a hero out of a teenager! With just a few words, I can analyze so many things, see the subtlety, and see the end! I'm amazed! Ivan clapped his palms in admiration and praised Li Yan unhesitantly.

"Carving insect skills, not enough to worry about teeth!" Waving his hand, Li Yan modestly backed back.

It's really not Li Yan's deliberate contrivance, nearly half of his inference just now was Livermore's idea, he just combined the current situation and perfected it a little.

"Whether it's a small skill or a great talent, with the experience of Ivan's life for most of my life, I guarantee that you will definitely be a great big man in the future!"

"What a big man, but it's just a ......"

"What are you doing? Muttering there for most of the day? Ruan Yumei's complaint interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Nothing, just off topic!" For a sensitive trade like arms, the fewer people who know about it, the better, and Li Yan naturally won't leak it to others. "Alright, let's get down to business! Mr. Ivan, I can sell you this batch of gold, but I'll listen to your offer first. ”

Ivan, who knew that he had been caught by Li Yan's weakness, frowned and pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke: "$30 per gram, this is the highest price!" ”

Li Yan has a total of 2.5 tons of gold, and according to the 78.4% test results, about 2 tons of pure gold can be extracted.

After checking the latest price of gold that day, it was about $40 a gram, which means that Ivan could get about $80 million in the end.

At his $30 per gram transaction price, he would have to pay Li Yan about $75 million. Subtracting the two items gives him his final profit, which is $5 million.

It seems like a lot, but if you add the dotting fees of various links, Ivan will hardly make any money in this business!

But for the sake of that more important arms deal, Ivan had no other way but to take the initiative to give up his profits in order to win Li Yan's batch of gold.

It is an idiot not to be apologetic, Li Yan did not have any guilt of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and after some mental calculation, he nodded at Ivan with satisfaction.

"No problem, deal!"
