After ending the call with Zhang Xinda, Li Yongji stood up and stretched, and then sighed heavily.

In fact, Li Yongji himself knew very well that the call he had just with Zhang Xinda was not so much to ask him for advice, but to chat and chat, just to find someone close to him to complain.

The reason is very simple, that is, to this day, just as Zhang Xinda has a lot of things that he has not told Li Yongji, Li Yongji has not told Zhang Xinda everything here, and each other actually has reservations.

Of course, this is not because they don't trust each other, it's completely because it's unnecessary, after all, each other is very busy, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities to get in touch, so it's impossible to really tell each other everything like before.

Therefore, they have reservations about each other, not so much because of private messages, but because they attach great importance to each other's friendship, so they will not tell each other about some small troubles and small things that they think they can handle, so as not to worry about each other.

You must know that although Li Yongji has a space-time trading system, he and Zhang Xinda used to be out-and-out grassroots otaku, and their ability to fantasize and complain is unparalleled in the world, but their ability to really do it is very poor. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have been nothing in the past.

In fact, when they reach their current status and reflect on the past, it is easy to come to a truth, that is, the reason why the grassroots have been failing in life must have a reason for failure, of which the external environment is only a small reason, and most of the main reasons are in themselves.

Lazy, unmotivated, passable, and unorganized...... In short, they have a lot of shortcomings in the past, and it is no wonder that they have failed so much in the past.

Speaking of which, when Li Yongji first started, he also had a lot of problems, especially his shortcomings of being too impulsive and lacking long-term planning were quite obvious. If it weren't for the information asymmetry advantage of the reborn, coupled with a golden finger that can trade time and space against the sky, and can continue to obtain the technology and equipment of the 21st century, he would never have laid the foundation he has laid in such a short period of time.

In the same way, Li Yongji is like this, Zhang Xinda, a good friend who was half a pound and eight taels with him at the time, was actually not much better at the beginning, and he took things for granted.

For example, at the beginning, Zhang Xinda only did things on the Internet and did them according to his own interests. That's why at the beginning, they rashly touched the manufacture of contraband such as smuggled weapons.

Later, when Zhang Xinda had a little money, he resolutely went to South Africa without too much investigation, just because he heard that South Africa could buy weapons and trade controls were very loose. It's easier to be private.

You know, reality is not film and television, he is a Chinese with no background. Even if he has just become a small nouveau riche because of Li Yongji, he wants to go to South Africa alone to start a business, especially when it comes to weapons and gold. The difficulty of buying and selling private is not ordinary.

When it first started. Zhang Xinda also encountered a lot of difficulties and problems, and even encountered a lot of fright, thanks to his natural big heart, plus a little luck and the excess profits brought by time and space trading. Only then did he become auspicious, evaded all kinds of black and white difficulties at the beginning, and finally gained a foothold in South Africa. Gradually become a local tycoon.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Xinda's history in Africa can also be said to be a legend, no worse than Li Yongji's building of the Chinese Empire in the 19th century, but he has never told Li Yongji about the thrills during this period.

It's like two good friends who know each other, but for various reasons, they have developed their own ways, and they have finally developed a career, but when they contact each other again, they will not talk about their legendary experience, but continue to talk and joke with each other as in the past, even if they want to get help, they will ask for it directly, and they will not beat around the bush.

In this regard, Li Yongji did it particularly thoroughly, after all, he was the master of the space-time trading system, and he could actually monitor what Zhang Xinda did, and even control the other party, but he didn't do this to Zhang Xinda, the root cause is that Li Yongji regarded Zhang Xinda as a friend, and he was still a very iron kind of friend, so he didn't do this.

The reason is very simple, the space-time trading system is good for everyone, even if Zhang Xinda really changed his mind after being rich and wanted to make more money, then Li Yongji can also forgive him, after all, no matter how you look at it, or no matter how Zhang Xinda makes money, Li Yongji in the nineteenth century is actually the most profitable party.

Of course, in order to add one more insurance, and at the same time to have one more trade channel, Li Yongji added an agent, but Li Yongji did not tell Zhang Xinda about these things, there are both selfishness and good intentions.

After all, Zhang Xinda and another agent, Dou Bifeng, are in the same world, and if each other knows the existence of the other, it is difficult to say whether it is good or bad for both parties.

Thinking of this, especially after thinking of Dou Bifeng, Li Yongji shook his head again, and the corners of his mouth even showed a wry smile.

That's right, Dou Bifeng is another agent of Li Yongji, and unlike the original choice of Zhang Xinda, Dou Bifeng is actually a person that Li Yongji hates a lot, and his character is indeed quite bad.

However, Dou Bifeng's family background is much better, and in addition to Dou Bifeng's character is not very good, especially the relationship between men and women is quite bad, he is quite good in terms of business management and judging the situation, and it can even be said that he is much stronger than Li Yongji and Zhang Xinda.

Although Dou Bifeng was afraid of Li Yongji because of the control problem of the space-time trading system, he was actually quite happy, because the appearance of Li Yongji, especially after choosing his agent for space-time trading, was tantamount to bringing a great opportunity to Dou Bifeng!

At the beginning, Dou Bifeng was just Li Yongji dealing with the cause of the sea. The agent of illegal drugs such as brown wants to deal with the crows imported from China. The second is to use this method to get a lot of money from modern society, and through the line of Dou Bifeng, there is one more channel for importing modern products.

Because at that time, Zhang Xinda's career encountered some trouble, and most of Zhang Xinda's energy was devoted to the army. Fire and other aspects, the supply of modern daily materials is relatively small, and Zhang Xinda has been paid attention to at that time. The private path is getting narrower and narrower, so it is urgent to open up another way. private line, then I thought of Dou Bifeng.

Select Dou Penfeng. It's because this person is very impressed in Li Yongji's mind, after all, he is the guy he hated the most at the beginning, so he remembers it very clearly.

However, because he was a nasty guy, Li Yongji let him run the drug at first. Pin, not without a vicious heart, just want to be in case the other party is caught, he can change an agent, during which he can not only make money, but also breathe a sigh of relief.

As for whether the other party will talk about the space-time transaction. Li Yongji is not worried about this, not to mention that he can clear the memory of the other party in this regard, even if the other party really says it to people outside, no one will believe it.

After all, there is such a thing as time and space trading, novels and movies are just that, and in reality it is too bizarre, except for the parties involved, it is impossible for outsiders to believe it. It will only be regarded as insanity.

However, what people didn't expect was that although Dou Bifeng had a bad character, he was bold and grinning. The various functions of the client of the space-time trading system were used superbly, not only successfully sold a large number of contraband such as heroine and morphine passed down by Li Yongji, and obtained a lot of funds, but also carried them forward. opened up his financial resources, not only quickly rose to become a legendary rich man in modern society, but also helped Li Yongji more and more. Even in many ways, the help has surpassed Zhang Xinda.

Why? Because at the beginning, Li Yongji only used a batch of modern imported equipment to import crows from China in the 19th century. The pieces are purified, made into seafall, morphine and other things, and then sold to the modern society through Dou Bifeng, and after obtaining the funds of the modern society, he buys the products of the modern society and gives them to Li Yongji.

However, due to Li Yongji's ignorance of this industry, the price was too low at the beginning, and although the shipment was fast, the profit was actually not outrageous.

Soon, Li Yongji discovered a problem through Dou Bifeng, that is, crows. If the tablets are sold to modern society, they are actually not very profitable, because in modern society, poison. The market has changed, and traditional products such as heroine have long been out of fashion, and all that are popular are new drugs.

On the contrary, in the society of the nineteenth century, due to ignorance, the profits of the fall of the sea were somewhat higher, so if from the point of view of profit, the production of purified crows. It is more profitable to sell film products to the society, but it is not profitable to sell them to modern society.

Although this is the case, there is one biggest problem here, that is, the import problem, after all, Li Yongji makes money to obtain the materials of modern society, and this requires the currency of modern society, so he must trade with modern society.

In this regard, Dou Bifeng's advantages are more obvious than Zhang Xinda's, the most prominent place is that Dou Bifeng is more hidden, not like Zhang Xinda, at the beginning of the eyes of people with a heart, resulting in quite inconvenient action, restricting Zhang Xinda's walking. Private action.

For example, jewelry jadeite and gold are hard currencies, jewelry jadeite let's not talk about it first, after all, this thing seems expensive, but as a luxury product, the market is actually very small, it is impossible to make profits on a large scale, and it is okay to make huge profits in the early stage, but in the long run, it is not a good smuggling product.

As for gold, although this thing is also a hard currency in short supply in modern society, and the market is very large, there is no shortage of buyers, and it belongs to the things that are not sold as long as they are in stock.

But the problem is that although gold is not as sensitive as arms, drugs and oil, it is not too different, and it is also a relatively sensitive thing, especially in the case of large-scale shipments in one place, it will definitely enter the eyes of people with a heart.

Zhang Xinda was originally because he didn't know how to do it, and he actually smuggled gold on a large scale in South Africa, which led to a large amount of gold in local areas, which became the eyes of people with a heart.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Xinda already had a certain foundation in the local area at that time, and he had been close to domestic arms companies, and China was South Africa's largest trading partner, the two sides were in the honeymoon period, and China was eager to open up the market, eager to obtain a stable large customer, and strongly supported Zhang Xinda, then with this Zhang Xinda's large-scale resale of gold, he would have been cleaned up by the South African government, and even if the South African government did not clean him up, others would definitely clean him up.

Therefore, Zhang Xinda's difficulty lies in the fact that he has already entered the eyes of many well-intentioned people, and it is not convenient to do anything, and the root cause is that he was too careless and too ostentatious at the beginning, and when he understood it, it was too late.

Dou Bifeng is different, although his character is not very good, but he is not particularly bad, and as a rich second generation and the second generation of officials, the environment in which he grew up is not only brocade clothes and jade food, but also has been exposed to many people in advance, so he has a stronger ability to adapt to the environment, and he has known Taoguang's obscure truth very early.

Therefore, after Dou Bifeng obtained the ability to trade in time and space, he did not get rich and get drunk, but remained quiet, and his usual life was as usual, but he went out in private. Privately reselling, and using N more overseas accounts to deal with those wealth that cannot see the light.

At the beginning, Dou Bifeng was indeed poisoned by Li Yongji's side. Pinda made a windfall and obtained the first bucket of funds, and then in the name of an investment company opened by his anonymous account overseas, he invested himself in the form of venture capital and set up industries all over the world.

In other words, Dou Bifeng used the offshore company he controlled to lend himself a sum of money by means of venture capital, and then used the money to open a supermarket chain and invest in logistics warehouses in the United States.

On the surface, these industries are serious, there is no problem, and the profit is not bad, and more importantly, it solves the employment problem of many people, so it also has the full support of the local government.

But in fact, this is just a disguise, especially a supermarket chain, and it is just a front for the outside world, Dou Bifeng's main business is not this, but real smuggling.

That's right, Dou Bifeng in this period is not only limited to the space-time transaction with Li Yongji, what he uses the most is actually the auxiliary function of the space-time trading system, that is, the portable space function.

It is to use the function of portable space, Dou Bifeng ostensibly flies around the world in the name of business investigation, but in fact he is engaged in smuggling, and the products are no longer limited to drugs. This item, but what makes money.

Because the carry-on space does not occupy the volume, it is impossible to be found, so although the capacity is limited, the effect is huge, just relying on this one function, Dou Bifeng does not know how much money he makes.

Although none of this money can be exposed, Dou Bifeng can use these dark funds to buy products from his own formal industry, such as those products of supermarket chains and logistics warehouses, all of which are purchased in large quantities through these anonymous purchases.

In this way, Dou Bifeng's own formal industry has become a purchasing agent, and the dark funds earned can not only buy a large number of equipment and materials for Li Yongji's continued after such a turnover, but also stimulate Dou Bifeng's own industry by the way, which can be said to be a great joy.

In fact, later, Dou Bifeng also began to involve arms, but unlike Zhang Xinda, who was dedicated to holding Chinese military enterprises, Dou Bifeng's arms were varied, although they could not be compared with Zhang Xinda in terms of quantity, but they were far beyond in terms of high-precision.

If nothing else, let's talk about the Qianlong special combat team around Li Yongji now, many of the high-precision equipment are American goods bought through Dou Bifeng, and those high-speed yachts with advanced performance are also bought through Dou Bifeng.

In addition, many cutting-edge equipment required by pharmaceutical companies are also purchased through Dou Bifeng, because Zhang Xinda is far from being comparable to Dou Bifeng in this regard.

In short, although emotionally, Li Yongji is more inclined to Zhang Xinda, but in fact, the best agent for development is the Dou Bifeng that Li Yongji hates the most, and his importance to himself is increasing day by day, and his help is getting bigger and bigger, which has led to a change in Li Yongji's mentality, and he is a little reluctant to destroy this guy.

That's right, it's ruined, after all, Li Yongji didn't have a good heart when he looked for Dou Bifeng, he just did it with the intention of trying, who knew that this guy had the best development.

Time has passed, Li Yongji thinks about it now, he just hated the other party at the beginning, but in fact, he didn't have any deep hatred, plus the other party is so capable, and he is helping him more and more, but Zhang Xinda is bound by various involvements and has developed slowly, so Li Yongji has already ignored Dou Bifeng's past, and began to increase his support for Dou Bifeng, and really face up to Dou Bifeng, the second agent.
