[379] There are many spy shadows
After Cao Xiaoqiang returned to the company, he found Zhou Lan and asked solemnly: "Zhou Lan, how much money do we have in our account?" Today I just signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense for a total value of 30 billion. ”
Zhou Lan's eyes were round, and her mouth was round, as if she couldn't close it: "It's terrible!" Mr. Cao, didn't you read the report just sent by Song Jingjing, the chief financial officer? After removing the more than 15 billion yuan of funds that we need to pay for the second and third phases of Shenji, the Ministry of Railways, Geely Group, and the Ministry of National Defense, there is only more than 4 billion cash left on the books. ”
Xiaoqiang said: "Why do I think there are more than 10 billion? ”
Zhou Lan said: "Isn't there more than 5 billion yuan specifically used to purchase all kinds of consumer goods and industrial raw materials according to your instructions?" I haven't seen the money yet! We shipped the goods, but the African side didn't make any payment, only paid the diamonds, and we haven't had time to sell the diamonds yet. ”
Xiaoqiang continued to ask: "The log sales over there in the Shenyang branch are almost over, right?" How much was sold? Haven't the finances been brought in yet? ”
Zhou Lan was very dissatisfied with Xiaoqiang's chaotic capital estimate, and said complainingly: "It has been sold for more than 320 million, and it has been counted in the general account, don't you look at it carefully." ”
Xiao Qiang smiled: "Isn't the second batch of twenty tons of sapphires not mortgaged yet?" ”
Zhou Lan said: "At present, the sales of natural sapphire have been out of about 6 tons of goods, it is estimated that this year's global market is basically saturated, if we ship faster, we will break the short-term market price of natural sapphire!"
These 6 tons of goods have returned nearly 90 billion yuan, and all of them have been used to repay the 80 billion mortgage loan in the early stage, and the mortgage loan has just been paid off with interest.
At present, there are 14 tons of sapphires left in the first batch of twenty tons, and the twenty tons of sapphires from the second batch are basically unchanged, with a total of 34 tons of sapphires. ”
"Didn't you say the day before yesterday that some of our big gems have already caused a sensation? Didn't it fetch a sky-high price? Xiaoqiang asked.
Speaking of this, Zhou Lan said happily: "At present, six pieces of high-purity sapphire rough stones of more than 500 carats have been auctioned, and more than 30 pieces of rough stones of more than 300 carats have been auctioned, and a total of more than 300 million yuan has been auctioned. These big gems are indeed huge profits! African customers really don't know the goods, and they can't classify the big gem rough mixed in the small gem pile? haha。
However, Mr. Cao, the gem auction should be slowed down, and it will be worthless if there is too much at once. This is a natural sapphire, not an artificial sapphire! If you sell it cheaply, you will lose a lot. ”
Xiaoqiang had a headache and said: "I see that the financial side has just reported that the antique auction has now been carried out in five phases, all of which add up to 78 billion, deducting handling fees and national taxes, and the net income is 71.7 billion, and another auction will be enough to repay the 75 billion loan obtained from the bank antique mortgage." ”
Zhou Lan said: "Mr. Cao, according to Jihua, these antiques will be auctioned in 20 phases, and when the mortgage is repaid, the rest will completely enter our company's books, and it will not be cost-effective to mortgage again!"
In the previous monthly auction, the five phases were 9.5 billion, 13.2 billion, 16.4 billion, 17.7 billion, and 21.2 billion, which is the momentum of sesame blossoming! Manager Liao Guoqiang of Rong Bao Zhai said that after the sixth phase is completed, the mortgage will definitely be repaid. He also suggested that we stop the auction and wait until next spring to resume the auction, which will be more expensive. ”
Xiao Qiang frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you see that the company was short of money?" As long as there is a shortage of money, the auction cannot be stopped for the time being! ”
Zhou Landao: "The Palace Museum, the National Museum and the cultural relics units in various places have selected a lot of antiques from our company's auctions, and it is roughly estimated that there are about more than 3 billion. The State Administration of Cultural Heritage is very happy and plans to arrange CCTV to shoot a news interview for us. ”
Xiaoqiang refused: "I'm not interested." You represent the company, and then bring the knowledgeable manager Rong Bao Zhai Liao and them together. ”
Zhou Lan said with a sigh: "Mr. Cao, you are really a rare philanthropist, this year's donor, without the presence of TV stations and news media, you don't even have a dime, but you can't even watch CCTV." ”
Xiaoqiang said categorically: "The tree is a big wind, I don't want to make this false name." What happened to the diamond sales this time? ”
Zhou Lanxi said: "It's easy to sell!" 80% of the goods in the domestic diamond market are smuggled ores, and the price has been rising, in a year, after De Beers's repeated push, the price of rough diamonds has risen by 30%!
On the surface, China imports more than 5 billion US dollars of diamonds every year, but in fact, the value of diamonds coming in through smuggling channels is three to four times the official figure! So our goods are very good, the company contacted the national jewelry companies are now coming to Beidu, our company's gem division has been busy and crazy in the past two days! ”
Xiaoqiang said resolutely: "Fire sale!" Resolutely Sell! 500 kg too! If you sell it slowly, I don't know what day it will come out, these goods are all within one carat, and the goods are given to Russian sellers, which are very fine, and there are no large ones in them. ”
Zhou Lan said: "These 500 kilograms of rough diamonds, according to the estimation of the gemstone division, with the crude estimation of the price of smuggled Russian diamonds, if they are sold in a big way, they will be worth at least more than 4 billion US dollars, about 26 billion yuan." ”
Xiaoqiang said: "It's all gone, now is the time when money is urgently needed, and this time the hole of 30 billion must be filled immediately." ”
"Haode, I'll tell the Gem Division."
Xiao Qiang, who estimated that he could temporarily fill the hole in the capital hole with diamonds in front of him, breathed a sigh of relief, and after Zhou Lan hurriedly left his office, he took out the inventory list in the warehouse and flipped through it carefully.
"It's all in between...... After attending this reception of the Ministry of Defense, you can set off. Xiaoqiang flipped through the warehousing list of the Beidu Logistics Park and said to himself.

China Branch of the United States Foundation for the Promotion of Democracy.
It's a small conference room, there are no windows, and people walk in it and feel soft under their feet. The conference room was renovated with a special rubber coating that was applied two millimeters from top to bottom to ensure that no electromagnetic signal could penetrate it.
"The speed of the rise of this small powerhouse in international trade is unprecedented! Log! Sapphire! Antique! Now it's diamonds again! All were exchanged for arms and industrial equipment, as well as a large amount of civilian supplies! I just don't know who the buyer is! Masato Fujita said in broken Japanese.
"According to our comprehensive analysis with the intelligence services in the embassy, this is a large-scale arms export group under the Chinese government, which is not publicly available, and has not been reported in any way! Their main export targets are underdeveloped countries or non-governmental armed groups, mainly in the form of barter. Exporting large quantities of low-grade arms to African countries in exchange for primary resources such as minerals. At present, the CIA's intelligence department in Africa has begun a comprehensive investigation, but no clues have been obtained, and there is not even a shadow of this company on the ostensible import and export lists of all African ports! Rogrigues said indignantly.
"Equatorial Guinea is the focus! Have you checked it? Tom Crane, a senior intelligence officer who had just flown to the Northern Capital from Langley, Virginia, asked.
According to the country's ambassador, Mr. Mambi, Mr. Cao only asked him to make a referral and send a secret purchase note to the Chinese side, but only made a transaction and never contacted him again. I reckon that this is just a cover to mislead our line of sight. Rogrigues replied.
"We have to continue to investigate, and we have to go deeper!" Tom Crane frowned.
Masato Fujita shook his head and said: "This is very difficult, at present, there are a large number of Chinese intelligence officers operating around Xiaoqiang international trade. The company's nominal chairman, Cao Xiaoqiang, its general manager, Zhou Lan, and the heads of various business divisions on the board of directors are all watched 24 hours a day by Chinese intelligence officers.
Especially their chairman, Cao Xiaoqiang! We found that there was more than one secret service vehicle following him, just the kind of Iveco dragging a van work pod, and we found five vehicles with different license plates in front of and behind.
I guess the other side must have discovered us too. According to the Department of Equipment, several of our secret service personnel's mobile phones have been intruded. ”
Tom Crane asked, "Have you done a more in-depth investigation into the suspicious warehouse?" ”
Masato Fujita, who was in charge of the intelligence gathering operation team, shook his head and said: "Completely unable to get close, Watanabe Hironari and Otsuka Kozo tried to enter with equipment, but they were detained by the Chinese security services, and they are currently being expelled by the Chinese side in the name of illegal surveying and mapping." ”
"Damn." Tom Crane complained.
