[112] Mortgages

In accordance with the spirit of the central arrangement, General Hua Huiling contacted Xiaoqiang, and after the two sat down in the conference room of the Ministry of National Defense, they exchanged a few words and got to the point:

"Xiaoqiang, I heard you say last time, you still have the intention to purchase this year, right?"

"Yes, not only this year, but for many years to come, my customers will treat China as their sole supplier, and I hope that this relationship will last forever. My client wants to deepen cooperation with China and increase the scope and intensity of introduction. Not only for military weapons, but also for civilian use, we will treat China as the sole supplier. ”

Hua Huiling's spirits perked up, this is a naked refuge! He said: "Xiaoqiang, since your customer is so sincere, then the two sides should see each other frankly, sit down and have a good chat, no matter which country, we are willing to be friends with him on an equal footing, even if there has been any unhappiness between the two countries before, through bilateral exchanges and cooperation, it can be solved."

Xiaoqiang was a little excited, but he was still very worried about his safety, he didn't want to become a slice specimen in the Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"General Hua, there are some unspeakable secrets that cannot be explained at one time, maybe after a few years of trade, we can establish enough mutual trust, and the clients I represent will be willing to stand up and walk into the sun. At present, my customers are not within the scope of Shili in China, and once they stand up and take refuge, they are likely to encounter a catastrophe, and international and domestic opposition to Shili is likely to knock my customers to death. ”

Hua Huiling was bluffed by Xiaoqiang's gimmick, as the number one person in charge of China's actual operation of arms sales in the world, he profoundly knew that the shili division on this shijie only needs to look at which country's weapons the country uses, and which system of weapons a country uses, which is equivalent to nakedly showing its attitude to Shijie, and the diplomatic and economic tendencies in the future will be very clear.

Generally speaking, the politics of small countries have little independence, and the political traditions and geopolitics left over from history dictate that small countries must meet everywhere and strive for no one to be offended. In this way, small countries with a little ambition often make up their minds and simply hug one thigh, find a backer among China, the United States, Russia and other powers, and cling to it. As long as we hug the right thighs, settle domestic political disputes, and the domestic economy can develop smoothly, it is possible to rise into a relatively independent country in the region. If you don't have a backer, you vainly hope for independence, and the country will be destroyed in the morning and night.

If you casually throw away your old thighs and change to a new hug, how can your former backer tolerate you, China is easy to say, generous and kind, diplomacy is relatively gentle, at most you will be stuck economically. But if you change the of the United States, Russia, France and Britain, you can try it and directly copy the knife and you! This is not nonsense, look at the endless back-up supporters of the coup d'état in small countries, the guerrillas and the funders of the separatist shili, and then look at the intervention wars and peacekeeping wars that let the great powers directly roll up their sleeves and go on their own horses, it is shocking! Small countries really don't have the courage to put aside the Shijie political Shili division and start from scratch to do it alone, which belongs to their own pumping.

Hua Huiling asked tentatively, "Which country's weapon did your customer use before?" ”

Xiaoqiang said nonsense: "The American system and the French system." ”

Hua Huiling was bluffed, and when he heard it, he knew that he had a headache, these two big hooligans were not unprovoked, but to see if the price of the face was appropriate. If this is to openly supply weapons to such other countries under the jurisdiction of Shili, it is undoubtedly to put the contradictions on the table, and then everyone will start to work on the top of the country and make a mess in the country. If it really doesn't work, under the pretext of a humanitarian crisis or something, tear off the mask and go into battle shirtless.

Hua Huiling pondered, at present, it seems that selling secretly like this is still the best way, regardless of whether Xiaoqiang's customers are government armed or anti-government forces, it is safest for them to make trouble by themselves. People are also very acquainted, and they did not use arms sales as a threat to ask China for political protection.

However, such an interesting shili is indeed a liliang worth cultivating, once they taste the fun of being friends with China, and can completely settle the domestic opposition to shili and control the domestic regime, they are likely to become friends of the Chinese people on shijie in the future. Hua Huiling made up his mind to report the situation to see if the central government was interested in fighting for this shili, which seems to be very pro-China at the moment.

"Xiaoqiang, how much procurement budget do you have this year, you can report it, and we will study it in advance. The head of the central government attaches great importance to the foreign friends you represent and is willing to give a certain loan in kind on the premise that you provide a certain guarantee, that is, agree that you can pay on credit. Hua Hui Ling smiled and threw out his sincerity.

Xiaoqiang was a little stunned when he heard this, I heard it right, the Ministry of National Defense * treated me as a VIP, this ...... Cool!

Xiao Qiang, who came back to his senses and was overjoyed, stood up directly from the chair, held Hua Huiling's hand and kept shaking: "General Hua, thank you really for your trust in me, you can rest assured, I am a trustworthy person, and I will never repay my debts, and I will never repay my debts." ”

The two talked in detail next, and Xiaoqiang gave Hua Huiling the bottom line, and told him the antiques he was pressing in the warehouse, which stopped Hua Huiling.

"What? Do you have so many antiques? Where did it come from? ”

Xiaoqiang said: "My client likes Chinese culture very much, and has been collecting Chinese antiques and works of art internationally for a long time, and at present, the first phase of the auction has 9.5 billion yuan, and according to the total amount, it is estimated that it will take about 20 auctions to clear out." ”

General Hua Huiling stared at Xiao Qiang's face seriously, and said hesitantly: "You acquired these antiques from the world?" How did it get in? ”

Xiaoqiang said: "My customer is transported in as industrial waste, which may not be in line with my country's laws, and I hope you will be accommodating." ”

Hua Huiling was stunned, he knew that the import order of small coastal ports in China was relatively chaotic, foreign garbage could be pulled in by boat, and electronic parallel goods smuggling was also rampant, not to mention this little antique, as long as there was a little doorway, it was still possible to transport it in, after all, this is just a few containers to get it. This situation has to be reported to the central government, and it seems that the current import order must be grasped fiercely, how the various ports are like funnels, they don't know what they are coming in, and they pretend to be blind when they give some money.

So after Hua Huiling reported to the central government, under the appraisal of cultural relics experts sent by the government, it took a week to estimate the value of the antique collection in Xiaoqiang's hands, and the total price was conservatively estimated to be as much as 150 billion! This price is so staggering that the expert group is simply crazy, and in their reports to the central government, it has been mentioned many times that many antiques that were destroyed in large quantities during the previous chaotic period are actually seen here in such perfect condition, which is really a great blessing for the country. After receiving the notice from the experts, even the National Museum of Beidu required that the selection and purchase be carried out first, and the rest could be auctioned in the market and provided to the society for collection.

The central government said that it was acceptable for Xiaoqiang to use these antiques as collateral and give him a 40 percent discount. After being entangled in the negotiation like Xiaoqiang kraft candy, it was finally settled at a discount of 50%. As a result, Xiaoqiang's exclusive account of the People's Bank of China has an additional separate account, which has 75 billion book funds, but it is stipulated that this part of the funds can only be used to purchase from the Chinese government, can not be withdrawn and misappropriated, belongs to the special funds, Xiaoqiang mortgaged antiques after the National Museum of screening and acquisition, continue to be auctioned by Rong Bao Zhai, the auction proceeds directly to the central government, until the 75 billion mortgage is paid off, and then the auction proceeds will go to Cao Xiaoqiang.

Xiaoqiang has tasted the benefits of doing business with the central government, a low-interest mortgage of 75 billion! The annual interest rate is only 2%, but the central government stipulates that this mortgage does not generate interest in the people's bank account, which means that Xiaoqiang does not expect to take advantage of the interest by eating interest, but such preferential conditions have made Xiaoqiang happy.
