Chapter 282: The Navy [2]

The next night, Durin showed up on time at the appointed restaurant, which was not a well-known restaurant, but it was elegant and quiet. Although the place is not large, with less than ten tables, it is always full and there is a queue. This time, though, Dulin didn't have to wait in line, and he couldn't see anyone else in the restaurant, so he booked a three-hour slot in the evening.

It's not that Durin is stingy and reluctant to stay all night, but the owner of the restaurant disagrees, and he postpones the reservations of some individual customers to after half past eight, and before that three hours are During's, for which he needs to pay a charter fee of 1,000 yuan per hour.

Durin was thinking about things when Garfield's laughter suddenly sounded outside the door, and he immediately put away his scattered thoughts, stood up and greeted him.

After Luke was arrested, Garfield had vaguely realized that maybe this was Doolin's game, because Doolin behaved a little unusually when he made peace with Luke at his house that day, and he was too simple to take out a part of the meat in his mouth and give it to Luke. At first, Garfield thought that it might be that Durin was a little afraid of Luke, including Luke himself. It wasn't until after Luke was arrested that he realized it was all a trap, and Luke jumped on his own initiative.

Now that he was able to realize this, Garfield made up his mind not to offend Dulin if it was not necessary, in case he was cheated or hated by him one day, it would definitely not be a pleasant thing. It just so happened that he had the ability to complete what Durin asked him to do this time, and while helping Durin at the same time, it was also equivalent to finding a business for his friend, and he was flattered by both ends, so why not do it?

As for whether they can negotiate, they won't keep him in the account book in their hearts in the end, if they do, this is a favor.

He can still do a business like this that makes money without losing money.

"This is Mr. Thomas!", Garfield introduced Dührin to his left, a middle-aged man in civilian clothes, with blond hair, a very tall posture, and shoulders slightly higher than the average person. Although he was laughing, he couldn't hide the unique aura of a soldier beneath the impetuous surface. Garfield introduced Mr. Thomas to Doolin, "This is the famous Mr. 350,000 of Illion, and he has helped me a lot." ”

Garfield had already taken that piece of land in his hands, but he had never thought of anything good to build. The coastline of Illian was like a north-south crescent, embracing a portion of the sea, and the land in his hand, where Durin now lived, was on the tip of the crescent moon to the north. His original idea was to build a dense commercial cluster, but the Illian plan was a little far from the real commercial core.

If you build a landscape, you can really make money, but the investment will definitely not be small, and the time to return to profit will be a little longer. In the end, he thought about it and decided to build a luxurious manor, the overall cost was about 180,000 to 200,000 yuan, plus the land was sold for 360,000 yuan in one go. I haven't sold it for half a year, first, the local rich people already have more than one villa, and there are also estates outside the city, so there is no need to spend 350,000 yuan to buy another estate.

Secondly, everyone is more familiar with it, this price will definitely not be negotiated, and it will be dragged down for a while, until Dulin appeared and took the cash, which made Garfield breathe a sigh of relief.

Durin shook hands with Mr. Thomas, said a few words, and led the two of them to sit down at one of the best tables in the restaurant—a balcony jutting out of the building, with ten centimeters of glass as the floor, as if they were sitting in the air!

Below you are the cliffs and the sea, and occasionally there are some waves that crash against the low-end glass, which makes your heart pound. But once you get used to it, it has a different taste.

"I have invited you this time Mr. Garfield because I have a business to meet with you, and I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of having a lot of things to ship and a lot of places to go, and I wonder if you have enough capacity and enough ships. Du Lin took out three metal cylinders and sent one to the two of them, and he kindly prompted: "The top collection mycelium from the provincial Yawang capital, try it?"

After the fall of the Yaoxing Empire, the empire bulldozed all the buildings related to the royal family of the Provincial Ya Empire, and the prosperous city immediately turned into ruins, and the royal family of the Provincial Ya Dynasty was also beheaded here. I don't know if it's because of the wonder of the blood of these royal families, but soon mycelium appeared in the ruins, and now it has become the backbone of the local economy, and a collection is organized every April to collect these wild mycelium and make it into a paradise for sale.

Such a top-notch paradise costs 120 yuan, which is the top-notch goods!

Garfield smiled, cut it and tasted it, nodded with a smile, his mood was inexplicably happy, and it took a while for his eyes to regain clarity, "It's indeed a good thing, it's broken." ”

Compared with Garfield's casualness, Thomas's movements seemed to be clear-eyed, and he also tasted it, the muscles on his cheeks shook, and the tense facial muscles gradually relaxed a lot, and he also showed some smiles.

He blinked, put one hand under the table, Durin guessed if he was twisting the muscles of his thighs, "Let's say so......", his words paused, as if considering how to speak, "I have about seven 10,000-ton freighters in my hands, and five freighters converted from warships, and I am the most ...... in this vicinity", he suddenly realized something, but it was obviously insincere not to continue to say this, so he could only continue: "The largest maritime contractor." He quietly put the paradise into the metal cylinder and smothered it, and he said something that should not be said.

According to the latest military law, after the warship is decommissioned, all weapons must be dissolved, which involves some secrets on the warship, such as how many standard weapons can be carried, how much ammunition can be stored, how many soldiers can be accommodated, how much speed is fully loaded, and what is the maximum speed of ...... when empty. This may seem like a big deal, but if war breaks out, it will become deadly information. But he said that he had a ship converted from a warship, and there was no doubt that he must have been someone from the military.

It is not news that the Navy does business in certain circles, and Garfield also told Doolin that not only did he not worry about it, but he let go of all his worries.

Although the style of the military is a bit crisp and excessive, and it is also a little unreasonable, as long as they are not greedy to work with these people, then they are the best partners.

"Mr. Thomas, you are a very cheerful person, I think I have learned your strengths, and now I will talk about my request. Every month I am going to ship at least half a million bottles of wine to the various docks of the Empire, and in the future this number will increase and increase, and in terms of price, as long as I can ensure the safety of these things, I can make appropriate concessions. ”

Thomas's eyes widened, and he almost blurted out the question, "Smuggling?"

Durin shook his head, with a serious and upright expression, "No, no, Mr. Thomas, I am a legal and protected businessman, how can I violate the laws of the Empire? As for whether their behavior is a crime, it has nothing to do with me!"

Thomas chuckled, Durin's quibbling amused him and gave him confidence in the deal. Just as Durin had considered, he began to consider the benefits. An upright moonshiner smuggled bootlegging for him with the help of the Navy's potential power, and he was able to secure the cargo at sea, while the Navy was able to get a long-term source of income.

This is almost something that does not need to be thought about, as long as Durin can come up with what he says, then the navy will definitely have the ability to send it to the various dock areas according to his requirements, once this transportation network is formed, no matter how the terminal changes, it will not affect their cooperation, let alone destroy this cooperation.

Because both parties are "legitimate merchants", Durin himself does not leave Illion, and the drinks and funds are also delivered in Illion, which is legal.

The goods are on the ship of the Navy, whether the goods are clean or not, as long as they float on the surface of the sea, the Navy says it is legal, it is legal!

As for the rest, that's not about them.

This is definitely a big business, if a bottle of wine takes 50 percent of the transportation costs, there will be at least 250,000 yuan of income every month, which is almost the highest income of last year's half a year. Thinking of this, Mr. Thomas's breath became a little short. Once this deal is reached, his position within the Navy will be even stronger, so much so that he will have the opportunity to touch the position behind what is known as the "uncrossable red line" - rear admiral!

After the Great Patriotic War, both the Reich and the Confederation realized that in the short term there would be no major military breakthrough. After a civil war, the two sides have figured out each other's reality and fiction, and it is pointless to start a war rashly except to cost the people and money. In the years of peace, which I don't know how long it will last, it is basically impossible to get promoted from colonel to major general.

Not to mention that Mr. Thomas does not have any strong support behind him, and he can become a colonel because the Navy feels that the rank of colonel can make those businessmen feel satisfied and secure, otherwise he is just a lieutenant colonel.

His face was filled with a sincere smile, "I think we can talk about it in detail." ”
