Tana? Abrote, because of this night, made her the richest woman of the twentieth century.

Later historians have lost sight of what happened, but there is no doubt that this woman came to China in early December 1911 and became the lover of the great head of the republic that would dominate the world.

At this time, this woman was leaning down under Xia Jun's crotch at this time, using her mouth to solve Xia Jun's physiological problems.

"Xia, you're really strong." After fiddling for a long time, Tana completed the task, lying in Xia Jun's arms and said quietly: "Li is very happy. ”

It smells sour!

"Huh!" Xia Jun smiled and reached out to touch Tana's black hair.

…… This time Tana came and left in a hurry, obviously embarrassed to see Li Shijing, Xia Jun also returned to Hangzhou with a little weakness.

Negotiations with foreign banks began.

In Asia, the biggest financial hegemon is the British HSBC bank, which is not the largest in the world, but it is definitely the hegemon in Asia, and at the same time it is only linked to British politics.

Therefore, the first thing to find is HSBC, Xia Jun asked his brother-in-law Li Shengguo to be in charge of the negotiation, and the price he gave was to mortgage assets such as factories to obtain loans with interest rates of no more than 5%.

In fact, Xia Jun can afford to eat even 7 or 8 cents, but he doesn't want to cheap those banks, and he can not only borrow from HSBC in the UK, but also in Germany, the United States, France, and even Belgium, all of which have operations in China.

The main reason why Li Shengguo was sent to negotiate was that these loans were not political loans in the name of the East China Provisional Political Axe, but commercial loans in the name of the East China Group, so they did not have political overtones, and these banks could not put forward all kinds of political conditions.

Negotiations were at an impasse from the outset, and HSBC did not want to lend to Huadong Group during this precarious period, even if it was collateralized, but this would only be possible if the situation in China was stable.

On the other hand, Chen Jiayi began to negotiate loans with banks with shares in Xia Jun's overseas companies, as well as patents that had been proven to have extremely high commercial interests, and these shares and patents would be pledged to banks to obtain bank funds.

There is basically no suspense about Chen Jiayi's loans, and many banks are willing to do this business, because this business is not risk-free, because Xia Jun's companies are doing very good business, and most of them have firmly occupied the market with their technical and creative advantages.

The only thing worth arguing about is that in terms of valuation, the banks want to keep the valuation low and the interest rate as high as possible, but Chen Jiayi is not looking for just one bank, he is also negotiating with many banks, which leads to fierce competition, and these banks are either in the United States or in Europe, and they don't think there is anything to threaten the lenders.

In terms of valuation, Chen Jiayi reported that the value of these patents and shares is about $60 million, and applying for a loan of $50 million is not a problem.

Xia Jun has 150 million points in his hands because he got the people's heart points in November, and the next step is to buy land, and Xia Jun must solve the problem of minerals.

Iron ore, chrome ore, nickel ore, and copper are all minerals that he urgently needs, and iron ore is naturally used to produce stainless steel.

The reserves of chrome ore in China are insufficient, most of them are distributed in Xinjiang Province and other northwest regions, nickel ore is also in the northwest region, and there are basically not many reserves in East China. In terms of copper mines, China is a copper-deficient country.

The chrome ore is the most in South Africa, accounting for more than 80% of the reserves, followed by Pakistan, and the climate is Zimbabwe, so Xia Jun wants to go to South Africa to buy land.

Nickel ore is the largest in the Philippines, which accounts for about 90% of the world's reserves, so it is necessary to go to the Philippines to buy land.

Australia is an area with a lot of iron ore, and the large iron ore mines in the west have not yet been discovered in this era, and these lands cannot be spared.

In addition, there are copper mines in southeast Australia, in terms of economic efficiency, the transportation lines in western Australia are not perfect, not every copper mine can be mined, and the copper mines in southern Australia, Indonesia also has a large number of copper mines, compared to the developed southeast of Australia, the return on investment is faster, because where the transportation system is perfect.

Xia Jun felt the need to infiltrate Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia and other places at this time, because there were many Chinese in Nanyang and Australia.

It is completely possible to support the Chinese state in Nanyang, and even control Australia or even annex it by immigrating to Australia frantically.

The South Sea monkeys in Indonesia and other places are also to be completely eradicated, but there is no time to eradicate them for the time being.

Xia Jun began to buy mineral distribution maps, and the price of foreign and domestic resource distribution maps is about the same, but it is twice as expensive, and it is also divided into four grades, and there is also a distribution map for a certain mineral.

Xia Jun planned to concentrate mining in Australia in the future, so he exchanged Australia's Level 3 resource distribution map and spent Xia Jun 100 million points. In addition, the distribution of chrome ore in South Africa, as well as the distribution of nickel ore in the rate merger, cost a total of 10 million points.

Chen Jiayi was already on the way back to China at this time, Xia Jun prepared the information, and at the same time began to mobilize funds, ready to buy land on a large scale, and began to set up the 'East China Mining Company', the input cost of the East China Mining Company is larger, Xia Jun is expected to buy an iron mine in the western part of Australia near the port, and then build a railway to the port, and the mining company will immediately start digging to solve the problem of iron ore.

At the same time, after buying a large copper mine in southeastern Australia, it was also immediately put into excavation to solve the problem of copper mines.

In addition, chrome ore and nickel ore, Xia Jun also delineated the first excavation site, East China Mining Company's equipment to meet these mining conditions, to adopt advanced mining equipment, need to invest about 10 million points.

While setting up the East China Mining Company, Xia Jun is also hiring foreign technicians at a high price, and the Ministry of Trade has opened activity bases in Europe and the United States, and the activities have been relatively comprehensive.

Although the East China Mining Company has just been established, it still has a foundation, and those coal mines and iron ores in Fujian have been mined for a long time and have a certain amount of experience.

Fujian's coal mines and iron ore are state-owned, so they are not the industry of the East China Mining Company, but they can transfer personnel from them to complete the formation of the company.

On December 3, Chen Jiayi returned to China and rushed to Hangzhou to report to Xia Jun.

Xia Jun was satisfied after listening to Chen Jiayi's debriefing, and the Ministry of Trade had found some puppets in various countries and set up puppet companies.

The so-called puppet company is to find a person with the nationality of a certain country to be the chairman of the board, and at the same time he controls a large number of shares in the company, such as 20 percent, but the other 80 percent is controlled by the Ministry of Trade, which in turn disperses these shares among a dozen Chinese.

Therefore, on the surface, it seems that this is a company controlled by people from a certain country, but in fact it is a company controlled by Chinese, and most of these Chinese have joined the nationality of a certain country, so they look at their own capital.

For example, a puppet mining company, after obtaining the prospecting rights of a certain place, can transfer the prospecting rights to the 'East China Mining Company' at a low price, and then the East China Mining Company will enter a certain country to open mines in a low-key manner.

In order to achieve this layout, the Ministry of Trade can be said to have used a lot of brains, and the completion of this layout is also related to the sufficient funds provided by Xia Jun.

Xia Jun handed over the mineral distribution map to Chen Jiayi, of course, he did not indicate what mines were on it, but just asked Chen Jiayi to take the prospecting rights of the location of the circle on the map, and then transfer it to the East China Mining Company, and Xia Jun gave Chen Jiayi not all of them in advance, but only some of them that were easy to mine. Therefore, Chen Jiayi, who got the map, didn't understand what was low in these circles.

At the same time, Xia Jun invited two overseas Chinese who had paid gold in Australia to assist Li Yifei through the relationship of the Liberation Society, and they were more familiar with Australia's policies.

The establishment of the East China Mining Company is the beginning of Xia Jun's efforts to control most of the world's minerals, and more mining companies will be established in the future, and overseas mines will be bought and mined. After all, if an East China mining company controls too many minerals, it will attract the attention of the great powers.

These minerals are purchased in other countries, so if the two sides are at odds, they will be confiscated or frozen by the country they are hostile to, and this Xia Jun is not afraid.

What is there to be afraid of?

Wait for the other party to be knocked down, these things are not good for themselves, and they can also make the other party double the compensation, so as to firmly control these minerals in their hands, if the minerals are not yours originally, even if you win, it is unlikely that people will compensate you for the minerals. And Xia Jun had already bought these minerals, if the other party dared to mess around, it would give Xia Jun a reason to start a war.

Minerals are an important link in the microeconomy, and controlling minerals is equivalent to choking the necks of other countries.

In the short term, overseas mining can address current resource shortages and preserve China's non-renewable resources before depleting other countries' reserves.

In the long run, although it may face some dangers of suspension of production and confiscation, it can be recovered after the war, and the control of reserves can be increased, so as to microeconomically indulge the global economy and ensure long-term hegemony.

The layout in mining was quickly arranged, Chen Jiayi hurried to Australia to preside over the process, and East China Mining Company was familiar with the equipment and ready to go to Australia and South Africa at any time.

At this time, Liu Yazi came back from Nanyang, and this time Liu Yazi came back and brought back nearly 500 Nanyang Chinese, all of whom were young people and had a certain culture.

Xia Jun's eyes lit up when he heard this, if he wants to control Nanyang, he has to rely on these young people!
