Since the collective collapse of Shengfeng's high-level management, Xihuang Industrial's attitude towards Huang Xuan suddenly became ambiguous, not only Zhang Rong responded to Huang Xuan's requests, but also Yu Tingli, who was originally from Huang's Fund, became respectful.

It is true that in Brazil, where the sky is high, an independent subsidiary is basically the same as an independent company, but if a prince is present, different styles will cause different results.

And this time, when he learned that Huang Xuan was going to use the port of Santos to receive crude oil, Zhang Rong almost put down all his work, just to let oil tankers enter the port half a day in advance - in the busy trade period, not all ships can dock or load and unload materials when they arrive at the port, and the largest shareholder of Docas is not Xihuang Business. In addition, the most troublesome thing is the terminal after arrival, and Huang Xuan hopes to be able to dock near the selected terminal, which is more conducive to the use of crude oil.

Zhang Rong completed Huang Xuan's requirements without discounting, and by June 20, Lorraine had successfully obtained 100,000 barrels of light crude oil, according to the average calorific value of the United States in 1990, equivalent to 5.8×10 to the 11th power of British thermal units, with the units we are familiar with, it is equivalent to 5.6×10 to the 7th power of kilowatt-hour electricity, that is, 56 million kilowatt hours of electricity, but the utilization rate of Lorraine is more than 20% different from the utilization rate of the Americans, and I believe it is enough for a long time.

The arrival of crude oil made Lorraine very happy, and although His Excellency the Warden did not actually have significant mood swings, Huang Xuan could still see the change between the lines.

"Huang Xuan, 15 companies have already submitted applications to us to buy timber, and I have agreed with them to bid this afternoon. I guess you should take care of it. Lorraine used to barely use the word "we," but now it's a good word. In addition, his ability to deal with problems seems to have improved, at least in the past, he did not make his own decisions.

Huang Xuan's heart moved, and asked, "Lorraine, my authority has been increased?" ”

"Yes." Lorraine's answer was very simple, but Huang Xuan said with a smile: "Then our authority is the same?" ”

"I'm level 21 clearance, and you're level 22."

Huang Xuan pursed his lips, he forgot that the level of the base had been raised, and Lorraine's authority had also been raised.

After casually chatting with Lorraine about the legal issues of the recent contract, the helicopter had already arrived at the open timber yard in Cabrès, and the Warden had invited more than 60 people from 15 companies, of which Brazilians were not the majority, after all, this is a developing country, and the consumption of high-priced oak and other things is not high.

Modest, the president of Cabres, waited on the tarmac early, and when the helicopter arrived, he tilted his head and pressed his hair, but he did not run away, squinting against the wind.

At home, Huang Xuan has long seen a lot of people's respect, but as a young man, he still cares a lot about people's attitude towards him. He shook hands tightly with Modiste and smiled: "The president doesn't have to wait for me, just send someone to guide me." ”

"Yes." Modiste has the passion, enthusiasm and confidence of a Brazilian, his hands are large, dry, man's hands. He smiled commugly, "This is the largest open-air storage space in Cabrese. I think I should introduce it to my boss personally. ”

"That's good." Although Huang Xuan had already received information about this place from Lorraine, he was still happy to have someone explain it in person.

Modiste is a very talkative man, a very American man, a very different kind of flair from the ease of Europe and the tension of the United States, perhaps Castro-style chic or Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez-style personality if I have to describe it.

It was a pleasant conversation, and although Huang Xuan's Portuguese was not excellent, he was still happy to talk despite Modise's accommodation, and this smile accompanied him to the lounge outside the lumber yard. A smile is a good start to a negotiation.

In addition to Germany, the world's largest producer of timber and Europe, the largest producer of furniture, there was also a Japanese company and two American companies in the bidding.

However, Huang Xuan's gaze did not stop at these confident managers, he saw at a glance Galadia sitting behind a certain businessman, the fair-skinned, blonde girl with seductive red lips.

Today she wore a beige suit, no sunglasses, no bodyguards, long eyelashes fluttering in front of her eyes, and blonde hair fluttering gently on her temples. Seeing Huang Xuan, Galadia expressed her surprise in her classical way, her gently open red lips seemed to shine, and her hazelnut head was slightly raised, with a sense of disbelief and shallow joy.

For Galadia, the young Asian left a deep impression on her. This is a daring guy, she could never have imagined that someone would be at the airport, throwing a mineral water bottle at a group of people, this kind of behavior, in layman's terms, is simply idiotic. However, it turned out that this was a young man who could recite poetry in Spanish, and he even knew the origin of Galadia, who, at the same age, was still crying because she was memorizing Latin.

Most memorably, he translated a beautiful and intoxicating poem in Greek, with a standard engraving language with heartfelt praise that makes people's hearts beat faster as you read it. Especially when he released his reading on the CD, the faint, pure Greek style of carving was simply trance-like.

Galadia felt that this was the most heartwarming love letter she had ever received in her life, if the other party could be closer to her age.

Sadly, she never saw this lively Asian in Professor Paulino's classroom again. Just when she couldn't help but want to look for the young man, he appeared again in a place where he shouldn't have been.

Huang Xuan smiled at Galadia and sat on the chair that had been prepared a long time ago, and at this time the representatives of the various companies already knew that the young man in front of him, who could not be smaller, was the owner of this batch of coveted wood. Galadia's eyes widened even more softly.

Modiste rubbed his hands and said, "Let me introduce you, this is my boss, that is, the owner of the wood you want to buy, Mr. Huang Xuan, from China." ”

After a gentle applause, Modiste continued: "Then you have already seen the quality of this batch of wood, please confirm the respective quotations and give them to me." ”

A businessman from Belgium asked, "Does Mr. Xuan want to decide here?" ”

"I want to get this batch of timber out as soon as possible."

Lorraine falsified detailed information on the origin and felling of this batch of timber, and most of the forests in the old German state (formerly the Federal Republic of Germany) were privately owned, so although there were records of the amount of felling and exporting, the records of the final ownership of a particular batch of timber were always incomplete and inaccurate. In the electronic age, the occurrence of forgery of documents is inevitable, not to mention the great keeper to ensure the legitimacy of this batch of wood.

Of course, no matter how strong Lorraine's ability is. Huang Xuan still wants to exchange it for banknotes as soon as possible. Over the past week, Lorraine has spent $100 million.

Huang Xuan's answer was in line with everyone's wishes, and the mood at the scene suddenly rose, and many people could be seen starting to look at each other. 60,000 cubic meters of timber is indeed not a lot, but because of the different types and quality, the needs of each company are different, so there is still a lot of room for bidding.

All timber needs to be sold in detail, generally speaking, after being classified according to the tree species, in the sales process, it is usually divided into one, two, three and so on according to the material; According to the use, it can be divided into three types: raw strips (timber that has been peeled, pruned, and cut off the tips after felling, but has not yet been made to a certain size and specification), logs and sawn timber.

Huang Xuan brought back the original strips, such as oak with a diameter at breast height of more than 100 cm, and today, 70 cm is already a good wood.

Since the timber was shipped back, Huang Xuan no longer paid attention to this, in his mind, even if he sold this batch of timber at the best price in Europe at present, the profit would only be hundreds of dollars per cubic meter, and 60,000 cubic meters was only tens of millions, but when he got the quotation from everyone present, his eyes were about to bulge.

The first thing Huang Xuan opened was the quotation of the old man in Greece who came with Galadia, 40,000 cubic meters of oak, 6,000 US dollars per cubic meter with a DBH of more than 100cm, even with today's net worth, Huang Xuan is still staggered, this is a big order of more than 200 million US dollars.

Over there, Klimeinos crossed his legs slightly, his right hand was on the teacup, and his eyes were slightly squinted, but all his attention was focused on Huang Xuan, and he was relieved to see him show surprise, and slowly leaned back in the chair.

Last month, only 2,000 cubic metres of oak were produced in the Palatinate Forest at an average price of 650 euros, but the highest price for more than 70 centimeters at breast height reached 2,000 euros, and even then, his company Kantes bought only 20 percent of it. When he learned that tens of thousands of cubic meters of oak were for sale, he immediately rushed to São Paulo.

There's nothing more to chase than chasing profits.
