Chapter 912: Chartering a Boat
"Brother Bai, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"
Qin Feng looked at the time, it was almost noon, and immediately said: "I asked people to book a seat in Quanjude, and let you taste the taste of authentic Beijing roast duck today......
When Qin Feng went to San Francisco, he once ate roast duck in Chinatown, but the taste was far worse than the authentic Quanjude, and Qin Feng said that when Bai Zhentian returned to China, he would use roast duck to entertain him.
"Cheng, I'll stay in the capital for a day, I don't have to play, you can take me to have a good meal!" Bai Zhentian nodded, he was only here for Qin Feng, and after seeing Qin Feng, he was also relieved, and he didn't want to stay in the country longer.
"Let's go, this will go just for dinner, and then I'll take you to have afternoon tea after eating, if you're interested, I'll take you into the Forbidden City to go around......"
Qin Feng stood up as he spoke, and said to Liu Zimo: "Drive your car, I don't want my car to be registered in the relevant department......
"My car is already numbered, isn't it?" Liu Zimo rolled his eyes and said, "Ming'er, I'll go back to Ao Island with Uncle Bai, do you want to come and see your own industry?" ”
"I can't leave......"
Qin Feng shook his head and said very seriously: "Let me repeat again, I won't ask about the affairs of Ao Island, I will leave it all to you to take care of, and you don't need to ask me about this kind of thing in the future." ”
"Why do I think you've changed a lot when you come back this time?"
Liu Zimo looked at Qin Feng while walking outside, and said, "You kid didn't say that he was in the coffin before...... Death requires money, but it's not like money like dung now, isn't it stimulated by something? ”
Liu Zimo and Qin Feng knew each other the earliest, he naturally knew what kind of life Qin Feng had with his sister since he was a child, although Qin Feng was not stingy, he would definitely not spend a penny more. This habit of playing small is very difficult to change.
But after Qin Feng came back this time, not only was he indifferent to the business of Ao Island, but even the "True Jade Fang" that had encountered a crisis didn't seem to pay much attention to it, which was completely different from Qin Feng's previous attitude towards money.
"Life is gone, what's the use of asking for so much money? You'll understand when you've experienced this kind of thing. ”
Qin Feng took a few steps and turned around. beckoned to Xie Xuan and said, "Xuanzi, you come along, and you can go directly to Boss Bai for some things when you turn around." ”
"Hey, Brother Feng, I'm coming!"
Hearing Qin Feng's greeting, Xie Xuan hurriedly followed, he didn't know Bai Zhentian's identity before, but then Liu Zimo told him that he knew, which immediately made Xie Xuan admire.
When Xie Xuan and Li Tianyuan followed Qin Feng in Jintian City. I have heard a lot about the deeds of the young gang bosses in Jintian, and those people are just branches of Hongmen, which shows the weight of Bai Zhentian Hongmen.
Liu Zimo personally served as the driver, Qin Feng, Xie Xuan and Bai Zhentian sat in the first car, and the car followed by Bai Zhentian's bodyguards.
After pulling a few dozen meters, it is still followed by two cars, for this point. Whether it is Qin Feng or Bai Zhentian, they all know that a character like Bai Zhentian is coming to China. I'm sure I'll be treated like this.
The Quanjude house that Qin Feng took Bai Zhentian to was in the direction of Houhai, and the car happened to walk through Chang'an Road, showing Bai Zhentian the most core position of the capital.
"This is the front door and the Jinshui Bridge?"
When the car drove to the entrance of the Forbidden City, Bai Zhentian couldn't help but get excited, although he grew up in China, he had never been to the capital.
When the picture on the TV coincides with the scene in front of you. Bai Zhentian also felt a burst of enthusiasm, and it was only at this moment that he had a feeling of blood connection with the land under him.
"That's right, when I get back to dinner, I'll take you in for a walk." Qin Feng nodded. Almost everyone who comes to the capital for the first time is the most desirable place for this imperial palace.
"The motherland is getting stronger and stronger."
Silently looking at the traffic outside, Bai Zhentian sighed, from the day he left, he knew that he could no longer live on this land.
"It's not like there's no chance in the future."
Looking at Bai Zhentian's gloomy face, Qin Feng smiled and said: "I'm tired of staying in the United States, so I'll go to live on Ao Island, anyway, it's close there, you can come back whenever you want......
"I'm afraid there aren't many opportunities."
Bai Zhentian shook his head, Qin Feng didn't know the organizational structure of Hongmen, in the eyes of outsiders, Aodao Casino was already a behemoth, but it was nothing inside Hongmen, at best it was just a relatively high-quality asset.
Therefore, as the helmsman of Hongmen, Bai Zhentian still needs to stay in San Francisco most of the time, if he really has the intention of being close to China, I am afraid that Hongmen's industry in North America will be hit by the US government immediately.
"By the way, Qin Feng, you just said that Xiao Xie has something to look for me, what is the matter?" Bai Zhentian retracted his gaze looking out of the car window, and the more he looked, the stronger his desire to return home.
"Brother Feng?"
Xie Xuan looked at Qin Feng when he heard this, in fact, he didn't know Qin Feng's purpose for letting himself follow the car, and he had been thinking about this matter in his mind.
"Aren't you kid having a headache about the ship? Seeing Boss Bai here, where did you run away with your usual cleverness? ”
Qin Feng opened his mouth and said: "Xie Xuan wants to do international trade in the future, and he needs a few freighters, Brother Bai, you can help buy a few, and then register them abroad......"
Qin Feng knew that Xie Xuan had no problem registering a company in China or anything, but when it came to freighters, he couldn't play it, after all, those businesses were in line with foreign countries, and this aspect was Xie Xuan's weakness.
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Bai Zhentian said with a smile: "This matter is easy to do, I heard that there is a ship king on Hong Kong Island who wants to sell some ships, if there is no accident, Hongmen will take over, and it will be good to sell you a few ships when the time comes......"
Hongmen once invested in the industry of the Greek ship king in Greece, and after the death of the Greek ship king, the shipping empire he controlled was also taken over by Hongmen, and there is such a relationship, Bai Zhentian is no stranger to the shipping business.
Coincidentally, Bai Zhentian came to Southeast Asia this time for the sake of a deceased ship king on Hong Kong Island.
When the ship king was alive, the tonnage of his ships once reached the world's first, and even if it later declined, he was also a world-renowned ship king tycoon.
However, after his death, the shipping business soon shrank, and his successor began to shift the focus of the consortium to real estate, intending to sell the huge fleet of ship kings.
Bai Zhentian hung up the position of chairman of the board of directors of the shipping consortium, and in order to show the importance of this business, he rushed to Hong Kong Island, but he only showed his face, and the specific affairs were negotiated by the professionals below.
"Uncle Bai, how much does this ship cost?" Xie Xuan didn't dare to call Bai Zhentian big brother, and followed Liu Zimo to call Uncle Bai.
"I don't know how much it is, how much tonnage do you want? How many ships? Bai Zhentian asked.
"This ...... I don't understand. Xie Xuan's eyes looked at Qin Feng again.
Qin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Just want one, and the tonnage should be as large as possible." ”
The more ships there are, the more people need to operate them, and Qin Feng doesn't want the secrets of that desert island to be exposed to the world, so he can only use one ship to transport the materials needed in that space.
"Damn, in a few days, I'm going to let Huangpu Buckwheat and Zhang Hu learn to operate a freighter......" Qin Feng muttered in his heart, he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to buy a steamship now, but what worried him the most was that there wasn't enough manpower.
"In that case, you can buy a 100,000-ton freighter!"
Bai Zhentian said: "The bulk carriers sold on Hong Kong Island this time are the most 100,000 tons, and I heard that the price seems to be around 50 million US dollars, right?" ”
"Five...... Million? Or the dollar? ”
Hearing the numbers spit out of Bai Zhentian's mouth, Xie Xuan suddenly made a bitter face and said, "Uncle Bai, I only have three or four hundred million yuan in my hands, and after I buy your ship, my trading company will go bankrupt." ”
After being targeted by Cao Hongzhi, "True Jade Fang" has not made any profit for several months, and the operation of "True Jade Fang" will be affected by the hundreds of millions of funds, but Xie Xuan can no longer take out other money.
"Do you do this trade?"
Bai Zhentian shook his head and said, "Doing trade is buying short and selling short, where can you buy your own ship?" If you have a lot of business, won't renting one be done? It's estimated that it's only seven or eight million dollars in rent a year, right? ”
"Huh? That's a good idea. Xie Xuan looked at Qin Feng when he heard this, and Brother Feng explained that he wanted to buy a boat, and he couldn't be the master.
"It's okay to rent a boat, but I'll have to have my own crew." Qin Feng pondered in his heart and affirmed Bai Zhentian's construction, he didn't expect the price of a ship to be so expensive.
"You can talk about these then, it shouldn't be a big problem." Bai Zhentian said.
Leasing a ship is generally equipped with a large captain and crew, but if the leasing party does not want these people, then the ship will definitely not refuse, because these people's wages are paid by them.
"Well, Xuanzi, Ming'er, you and Boss Bai will go to Hong Kong Island and finalize this matter." Qin Feng has been coming to various things recently, and he can only quickly cut through the mess and solve one thing by one.
"Okay, Brother Feng, I'll book a ticket when I get back."
Xie Xuan nodded again and again when he heard this, he couldn't ask for a business trip to Hong Kong and Macao, because the last time he went to Ao Island with Liu Zimo, he was really drunk and dreamed of death, which made Xie Xuan have endless memories to this day.
"Get down to business."
Qin Feng glanced at Xie Xuan, yesterday he heard Li Tianyuan reprimand Xie Xuan, saying that since Xie Xuan and the store manager's girlfriend broke up, he had been going to nightclubs such as those in the sky and on earth.
"Brother Feng, don't worry, with Uncle Bai here, where will there be things that can't be done?" Xie Xuan smiled and slapped Bai Zhentian's ass quietly. (To be continued......)
