Tong guò greatly increased the purchase price, and today finally survived this day, not only survived, but also consumed a large amount of the few funds in the hands of foreigners, maybe foreigners don't know that their funds are about to run out, right? At this time, who knew that most of the cash flow of Shanghai's major banks, ticket numbers and banks was siphoned off by Xiao Zhenlei?

Xiao Zhenlei stood in front of the window and looked at the night scene of Dashang Beach outside, he believed that after tonight, by tomorrow morning, the situation would change greatly, once the newspaper put up notices from the local government to let cotton farmers and cotton merchants sell cotton to foreigners, then the reaction from all walks of life was fierce, and public opinion was in an uproar, and then he wanted to see where the face of the government would go? It is so ridiculous that a regime is cowardly and shameless to this extent, and the situation will certainly be very interesting when the time comes!

At this time, in the residential area of the rich villas in the French Concession, the foreigners, led by Xavier and Ralph, were very tired and nestled in the sofa, as if they had just experienced a strenuous exercise and completely collapsed. + Novel,

Today's price war has exhausted them every strength, when every time the price is raised, they are distressed to death, at any time from all over the news make them nervous, from this morning to now, they have always been Xiao Zhenlei overwhelmed, due to the timely adoption of measures to follow the price increase, although they have been suppressed today, but they have not lost too much, and a total of 2,780,000 asbestos have been received in one day.

The Italian lit a cigar and took a few puffs and said, "I said, everyone, it can't go on like this, we are always suppressed." Only 2,780,000 stone was harvested this year, and most of the cotton was collected by Xiao Zhenlei. If this situation continues, it is simply impossible for us to buy enough cotton in the optimal time. We have to find a way to change that! ”

The Germans said: "Then what else can we do?" Continue to fight with Xiao Zhenlei for price? I don't think it's the best way to do it, but if we don't fight the price with him, it's terrible! ”

The Japanese Kenji Matsushita said viciously: "This Xiao Zhenlei is against us everywhere, it is really hateful, I think we might as well find someone to kill him, as long as he dies, Zhenhua Company will not have anyone in charge of the overall situation, and the situation will definitely be one-sided to us at that time!" ”

"Oh, God. How could I have such a pig-like ally? The German clutched his head in pain and shouted, "Fool, please remember, we are businessmen, businessmen whose first purpose is to make money, not those black-hearted politicians, and when things go wrong, you shout that you want to kill people, what do you want to do?" You go and kill all the Chinese, go and grab all their money. If you snatch the whole of China, what kind of business are you still going to do? I rub! ”

"You" Kenji Matsushita was scolded by the Germans and his face turned blue and red, he hated the Germans very much at this time, but he thought that the Germans were not easy to mess with. can only forcibly hide the hatred in the heart. Japan has become strong by following the German learning, and the apprentice wants to turn his face with the master? It's still early!

If one plan fails, another plan will be implemented. Kenji Matsushita immediately thought of another way, and he immediately said fiercely: "Okay." We don't kill people, but we can set fires, right? The surnamed Xiao bought cotton on a large scale. Blocking our way of fortune, now he buys several times more cotton than ours, we can't let him be so proud, I think we can send someone to sneak to his warehouses where he hoards cotton everywhere and put a few handfuls of them and I will burn all those cotton, so that he will lose all his money! Well, I'm not bad at that, right? Doing so will give you a bad breath, don't you think? Am I so genius that I can even think of such a way to punish him? After saying that, he laughed triumphantly.

When everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help but look at each other, the Englishman Ralph rubbed his temples painfully, he had been putting up with this Japanese for a long time, this time he really couldn't bear it, he all burst out at this moment: "Enough, Mr. Matsushita, I really don't know how your family sent a stupid pig like you to do business, the German friend just said, we are here to do business, not to burn and loot, do you understand?" Our purpose is to purchase enough cotton to be shipped back to China for processing, with our current purchase volume is far from enough, even if Xiao Zhenlei does not harvest cotton next, we will collect the rest of the cotton is far from enough, we can only let Xiao Zhenlei admit defeat, let him deal with the cotton at a low price to us, you are now going to send someone to burn the cotton, then how can we make money, ah? If you really don't understand, please keep your mouth shut, okay? ”

Kenji Matsushita was scolded so much that he lost his temper completely, and it didn't matter if he was scolded by one person, but he was scolded by two people in a row, and his poor self-confidence was scolded to the ground, and he shrunk his neck and began to be silent in the sofa.

The Russians said: "I believe that our troubles are far more than these, even if Xiao Zhenlei can't fight us in the end, as long as he doesn't sell us the cotton in his hands, our cotton gap is still very large, and we still can't complete the tasks assigned to us in China!" ”

"No, no, no, Mr. Vallovsky, you are wrong, there is one thing you didn't take into account, in the end, Xiao Zhenlei will inevitably compromise with us and deal with the low price of cotton to us!" Xavier shook his head and smiled.

Wallovsky was surprised: "Oh? Is there anything I haven't taken into account? ”

Ralph helped Xavier say the following words: "You didn't consider the problem of capital turnover, nor did you consider the time limit for cotton import and export, beyond a certain amount of time, do you think the cotton in Xiao Zhenlei's hand is still useful?" After next year's spring and summer come, the market demand for cotton is not so urgent, does he want to save cotton until next year? There is also the problem of capital turnover, I believe that up to now, he has hoarded so much cotton, used up at least 12 million taels or more, so much money has been used to hoard cotton, if it is not disposed of in time, how can his funds turn? And I also believe that he definitely doesn't have so much money in his bank account, and a large part of it must be from bank loans, you must know that those bankers are not good birds, they are more greedy and cruel than us, if Xiao Zhenlei's business has any problems during this time, those bankers will definitely take the lead in urging him to repay the loan in order to ensure that the loan is recovered, or apply to the court to temporarily freeze all his property?"

"Wait, wait!" Before Ralph finished speaking, Xavier hurriedly interrupted him: "I don't understand, even if Zhenhua Company makes money, how can Xiao Zhenlei have so much liquidity in his hands?" His Zhenhua company is now only worth about 12 or 3 million taels at most, and it is impossible for him to borrow so much money from the bank! ”

This question made these foreigners fall into deep thought, this is indeed a puzzling thing, and the reality is that Xiao Zhenlei really has so much money to fight with them again, using real money, otherwise he would not have been able to buy so much cotton.

At this moment, one of Xavier's subordinates came up to him and whispered: "Sir, we have almost used up the funds at the acquisition points in various places, and we must replenish them in the shortest possible time!" ”

Xavier nodded and said: "Okay, you go to the bank to contact them, borrow some money from them, first loan two million taels, tomorrow morning to supplement the past for them, now we have set up some of the cities of the acquisition point have banks and ticket numbers, as long as the bill of exchange is sent over, with the reputation of our foreign bank, there should be no problem with a loan of two million!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

After the man left, Ralph asked, "What happened?" ”

Xavier shook his head and said: "A little thing, the funds of the acquisition points set up by our company in various places are almost used up, you know that Xiao Zhenlei deliberately raised the purchase price, we are not prepared at all, and there is not much money left in the past before, so we must replenish it now, otherwise it will be too late to replenish it when the funds over there bottom out, I have already sent someone to contact the bank for some loans."

Ralph nodded, "Yes, maybe I'll have to add some funds on my side too!" After speaking, he called his subordinates who were standing in the distance, and told them to check whether the funds of the acquisition points in various places were sufficient, and if they were insufficient, they should be replenished immediately, so as not to have time to come up, and as for the funds, they should first borrow some money from the bank, and then return them to the bank after the funds were withdrawn.

Next, these people's subordinates have come to report that the funds for the purchase of cotton are insufficient, so the bigwigs asked their subordinates to get in touch with the bank immediately, and send someone to send the funds over in time after the loan, but it is already night, and the bank is also off work, if you want to handle business, you can only wait until tomorrow morning, but you can still say hello in advance.

Not long after, when the bigwigs were about to go to dinner, Xavier's men came over to him and whispered: "Boss, something is wrong, I just called Manager Charlie of Crédit Agricole CIB to ask him for a loan, but he said that his bank is not full of funds now, and he can't give us a loan for the time being!" Later, I contacted several other banks, but the managers of these banks said that they don't have any extra funds to lend to us. ”

"What? Are you sure? Xavier was shocked that the bank didn't have the money to lend it? The joke wasn't funny at all, but he knew his men weren't lying when he saw that they weren't joking.

"Yes, boss!"

The bigwigs who were just about to leave saw that Xavier was in trouble, and immediately inquired, and Xavier told him that he couldn't borrow money from the bank, but before these bigwigs could react, their bigwigs' subordinates came over one by one to report that they couldn't borrow money from the bank.

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and at the same time, their faces changed greatly, and the Englishman Ralph said in a deep voice: "We are in big trouble this time!" (To be continued......) u
