Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
In the afternoon, Thomas arrived early with Axim to the repair shop.
The two came to the living room in the backyard and met Yao Weimin.
"Axim, I heard that your family is in the fabric business, I invite you to come today, I want to show you something."
Yao Weimin said with a straight smile.
"Okay, second brother, I'm really interested, haha......" Axim smiled expectantly.
As Yao Weimin signaled, Hua Li took out a few feet of silk from the back room and handed it to Axim.
"Ao, I'm not mistaken, the second brother actually brought your domestic silk!" Axim received it in his hand, and after a little observation, his face was full of shock.
"It seems that you have been in contact with it before, so you might as well tell me about it, is there this kind of silk for sale in your family company?"
Yao Weimin took the cigar handed by Axim and asked with a smile.
"Of course, my uncle is in charge of a family trading company that is in the cloth business, and this silk has been sold quite well several times in the past, but it has not been available for several years."
Aximmo rubbed the silk in his hand with a look of pity in his eyes.
"If there is such silk now, what do you think is the approximate transaction price? I'm referring to the purchase price of your uncle's company. ”
Yao Weimin looked curious and pointed to the silk in Axim's hand.
"Well, it's not easy to say, but it's about one hundred and fifty rubles a meter, after all, it's not a matter of price now, but you can't get the goods at all."
Axium shook his head, looking unsure.
After he finished speaking, he seemed to notice something, and asked with surprise: "Second brother, you don't want to do silk trading, do you?" ”
Seeing Yao Weimin smiling and silent, he continued: "Second brother, this kind of business is not easy to do, and now the border is strictly controlled, and the danger is too great.
Of course, if the second brother has the ability to transport the silk over, I actually ...... I don't want you to do this with my uncle! ”
"Why?" Yao Weimin deliberately showed a suspicious look and continued to ask.
In fact, through Axim's expression, he had already vaguely guessed the reason.
"Second brother, I won't tell you anything, my uncle is a very annoying person, he will go against my father every time he has a family meeting, I don't want you to give him such a good thing to sell, well, frankly, I don't want to do anything for him!"
Axim explained frankly at the mention of his uncle, with a hint of anger in his tone.
Yao Weimin still had a smile on his face, Axim's explanation was similar to what he had guessed, the family business was the same everywhere, and the internal struggle for power was much more fierce than what appeared on the surface.
"Axim, you guessed it, I'm just looking for someone to trade a batch of silk, if you don't think it's right for me to trade with your uncle, can you offer me other ideal partners?"
Yao Weimin lit his cigar and asked again.
Hearing this, Axim couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Second brother, you are so amazing, you can even make silk!" ”
Speaking of this, he thought for a while, and his eyes lit up, "Yes, didn't the second brother save Daniel yesterday, their family's industry also has a company that does fabric trading, if it is convenient for you, it will be more convenient to trade directly with his father, the respected Chief Edward!" ”
After he finished speaking, Yao Weimin's heart couldn't help but move, it seemed that he was a little reluctant to seek the near and far, if Edward was also in the fabric business, then the cooperation would be as Axim said, it would be more convenient and smooth, after all, the liquor business had been cooperated, and the two sides had laid a good foundation.
"Haha...... Axim, your suggestion is good, I'll consider it! Yao Weimin laughed, and then stopped talking about silk, and started chatting with Thomas and Axim.
In the evening, the dinner was still held in the private dining room of the repair factory, and Hua Li specially instructed Oleg, a famous chef in the local town, to prepare a sumptuous meal.
Not only did I catch the fish I caught at sea yesterday, but I also went to the market to buy a lot of beef and mutton, as well as Musen Baiwa and delicious caviar and so on.
Thomas and Axim brought a variety of imported wines throughout the evening (this chapter is not finished!). )
Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
The banquet was very enjoyable, the atmosphere was warm and cheerful, and it was not until about eleven o'clock in the evening that Vasily and Aksim staggered away.
In the afternoon of the next day, Yao Weimin drove out in Gas69, and he had to choose a suitable place to place the liquor in advance, so that when trading in the evening, he could directly bring Daniel over to transport the goods.
After observing the location, he returned to the repair shop, and after dinner, he told Hua Li the address of the transaction, and asked the latter to drive Wei Qiang to meet Daniel, while he himself drove to the location he had chosen during the day.
About the time was almost up, Yao Weimin did not take out the liquor directly from the space, but climbed a big tree and carefully observed the surrounding movements by the moonlight.
Although Edward has agreed to the deal, he is separated from each other, does not know what to do, and is in a foreign country, so it never hurts to be vigilant.
With his rich experience as a scout, he could quickly sense any abnormal movement around him, and once Edward deliberately hacked the five thousand catties of liquor and sent someone to secretly block it, it would not escape his eyes.
Time passed slowly, everything was normal all around, on the road in the distance, there were two off-road vehicles and a big truck slowly approaching, Yao Weimin saw that there were no other vehicles behind him, so he returned to the ground, put fifty barrels of liquor in a pre-selected position, and waited for the three cars to approach.
"Second brother! Daniel is here! Hua Li was the first to get out of the car, walked up to Yao Weimin and whispered.
"Well, is he the only one?" Yao Weimin asked.
"No, there seems to be a woman, when I picked them up just now, the woman didn't get out of the car, I don't know where to go."
Hua Li responded seriously.
At this time, Daniel and Nina got out of the car, and when they saw Yao Weimin, they had a knowing smile on their faces.
"Oh, oh my God, Mr. Zhang, you are really generous, I'm not dazzled, right? These vats are full of liquor?! ”
Daniel soon spotted the barrel in the grass by the roadside, and with a look of wonder on his face, he ran close to take a closer look.
"Mr. Zhang, I hope our future transactions will always be so smooth!" Nina spoke in China, and at this moment stretched out her hand to shake Yao Weimin's hand.
"Miss Nina, you're dressed beautifully today!" Yao Weimin praised with a smile at the right time.
"Really? It's my pleasure to be recognized by you! Nina smiled with surprise on her face, and winked at Yao Weimin a few times with big eyes, which meant something strange.
"What I'm saying is true, the material of your dress looks very expensive, so I'm embarrassed to take out the gift I want to give you!" Yao Weimin laughed half-mockingly and half-seriously.
"Oh? Do you have a gift for me? Oh my God, I'm so happy! Nina couldn't help but raise her voice a lot, her face full of surprise.
"Miss Nina, I thought that for the first time tonight, Chief Edward might come in person!" Yao Weimin didn't rush to take out the silk, but changed the topic and asked softly.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, something happened in the barracks, my father went to deal with it yesterday afternoon, and he hasn't come back yet, but don't worry, my brother and I have already brought what Mr. Zhang needs, let's start trading!"
Nina heard that Yao Weimin had prepared a gift for her, and after a brief explanation, she couldn't wait to urge her to trade immediately.
"Okay, you can rest assured about the weight of liquor, one hundred catties per barrel, only a little more, I can guarantee you the quality, there is no difference from what Chief Edward has drunk, there are a total of fifty barrels of liquor here, that is, five thousand catties of liquor that you have determined."
Yao Weimin pointed to the white wine barrel on the side of the road and explained seriously, his expression was still smiling, but after listening to Nina's words, he couldn't help but move.
Edward had left home since yesterday afternoon, claiming to go to the barracks to deal with urgent matters, which seemed a bit interesting to Yao Weimin.
Edward was the highest commander in the garrison, so what did he need to stay up all night?
And the time of his departure, according to normal circumstances, is the time to transport liquor from the border, could this Edward lead people to intercept the liquor at the border?
Many thoughts flashed through Yao Weimin's heart, but in the end, because there was no conclusive evidence, it was not easy to judge Edward specifically (this chapter is not finished!). )
Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
Isn't it going to the border.
Therefore, he still followed the normal process and gave Nina and Daniel a brief introduction to the situation of this batch of liquor.
"Okay, I believe in Mr. Zhang's credibility!"
Nina nodded emphatically, then pointed to the car and said, "Mr. Zhang, the things you want are in the car, please go and count them!" ”
Yao Weimin smiled and turned his head to look at Hua Li.
The latter took Wei Qiang and walked to the front of the off-road vehicle, and soon, there was a rustling movement in the back compartment of the off-road vehicle.
At this time, Daniel also began to direct the people who got off the truck to start carrying the liquor into the truck.
"Mr. Zhang, thank you for preparing a gift for me, and I will also express my heart next time we meet!"
Seeing that Yao Weimin didn't mention the gift again, Nina took the initiative to say happily.
"Oh, Miss Nina, come with me!"
Yao Weimin took Nina to the front of the gas 69 he drove, took out a cloth bag from the back compartment, and handed it to Nina.
"Miss Nina, this is a kind of fabric from our hometown, and I think you will ask a tailor to make it into a dress, and it will definitely make you look more beautiful and charming when you wear it on your body!"
"Really? What fabric? After Nina took it, she hurriedly opened the cloth bag, and when she saw the light blue silk inside, she suddenly grew her mouth in surprise, and only after a long time did she respond excitedly:
"Oh my God, it's silk! Mr. Zhang, thank you so much for the gift, I love it! ”
As she spoke, she opened her arms and gave Yao Weimin a warm hug.
Yao Weimin patted her on the back, let go of his embrace, and said with a smile:
"Miss Nina, as long as you like it, in fact, I also plan to ship this silk fabric from China, and I will rely on Miss Nina to help me introduce partners in the future, haha......"
Nina's expression became even more excited after hearing this, she couldn't help but lean close to Yao Weimin's cheek, and said excitedly:
"Mr. Zhang, our family is also in the fabric business, if you can transport the silk, then directly trade with my father, I believe he will give you a satisfactory terms of cooperation!"
Seeing Yao Weimin's look of surprise, she continued:
"That's okay, tomorrow my father will come back, let my brother take you to my house for dinner, just so you can talk to my father about cooperation in silk, how about Mr. Zhang?"
"Okay, I can't ask for it!" Yao Weimin nodded happily in agreement, always maintaining a surging smile on his face.
The two stood on the side of the car and chatted, and after more than ten minutes, Hua Li came over.
"Second brother, the things are ordered, a total of 312.5 kilograms, no problem!"
"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, my father is very honest in business, since he promised your price, he will not go on a business trip!" Nina added with a smug smile next to her.
"Okay, thank you, Chief Edward, for me!" Yao Weimin responded to her, and then motioned for Hua Li to load the car.
Hua Li took Wei Qiang and the two of them and began to move boxes of gold from Danielle's off-road vehicle to Yao Weimin's Gas 69.
After he finished doing it, Danielle commanded several of his men to also transport the liquor to the truck.
"Daniel, Miss Nina, our deal is over, but there's one more thing I need your help with before I leave!"
After Yao Weimin finished speaking, he motioned for Hua Li to drag out Victor from the back compartment of another off-road vehicle.
At this time, Victor was quite miserable, his hands were tied behind his back, his mouth was stuffed with rags, and the whole person looked embarrassed and frightened.
"It's ......" Daniel couldn't help frowning when he saw Victor.
He didn't know this person, there were so many family businesses, Weta Wine was just one of the trading companies, and Victor was just a staff member of the Weta Wine Purchasing Department, and he didn't even see Daniel's face in front of him.
"You guys from the Weta Wines Purchasing Section." Yao Weimin smiled and briefly said that Victor cooperated with him to get kickbacks, and wanted to call the police to threaten him.
"Damn! This bastard is too daring! Daniel gritted his teeth angrily, and there was a murderous look in his eyes.
"Brother, take him back first, and leave it to my father to deal with!" (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
Nina also had a look of disgust on her face, but she didn't want her brother to do something to Victor in front of so many people, and reminded loudly.
Victor was stupid at this time, although he didn't know the Daniel brothers and sisters, but looking at this posture, he knew that he was fierce and lucky, his pale face showed an extremely frightened look, and he snorted "woo" in his mouth, and finally knelt down directly towards Yao Weimin, begging for forgiveness.
"It's late, it's all your own greed, no wonder others!"
Yao Weimin scolded coldly, too lazy to take care of him.
Peng!
Hua Li kicked him aside and motioned for Daniel's men to be towed to the truck.
"Okay, I still have some things to do, and I need to send the things in my car back to China overnight, so let's see you tomorrow!"
Yao Weimin saw that the matter was resolved, and said decisively.
He specifically told Daniel that the gold would be shipped overnight and would not remain with him.
"Okay, we also have to hurry up and transport the liquor back, I believe that my father will be very happy to see so much liquor tomorrow!"
Daniel laughed in response.
"Mr. Zhang, don't forget the agreement tomorrow, as long as my father comes back, I will pick you up with my brother immediately!"
After Nina got into the car, she reminded Yao Weimin again, with a touching smile on her face.
The off-road vehicle and the truck started one after the other, and quickly disappeared into the night.
"Second brother, you are busy with you, I will take Wei Qiang back first and wait for you in the repair factory!"
Hua Li knew that the second brother had great powers, and if so much gold was not properly disposed of, it would indeed be a troublesome matter, in case Edward's mind was not right, and he would send people from the army to seal up the repair factory tomorrow, and the gold would not be able to be hidden at all.
Hua Li and Wei Qiang also drove away, Yao Weimin waited for them to go away, and after making sure that there was no one around, he quickly put more than 300 kilograms of gold into the space.
He sat in the car, smoked a cigarette, started the car, and returned to the garage.
Hua Li was still waiting in the living room at this time, and when she saw Yao Weimin coming back, she hurriedly poured the hot tea she had prepared and put it in front of Yao Weimin.
Hua Li has long been surprised by the second brother's methods, no matter how outrageous it is, as long as it happens to the second brother, it can be accepted.
"Second brother, do you need me to find a few more buyers to come back and inquire about the silk matter?" He asked earnestly.
"Yes, try to make an appointment tomorrow morning, maybe Daniel will come to me in the afternoon." Yao Weimin nodded and said calmly.
The two chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, Hua Li really called a few locals who were in the fabric business through connections, and Yao Weimin received them with a smile and talked to them about the silk business, and probably had a certain understanding of the price.
At present, on Lao Maozi's side, silk is a very high-end item, and the selling price is quite high, because there is almost no supply, and the transaction price has reached about 150 rubles, even so, there is only a small supply of silk on the market, and if you want to buy it in large quantities, you can't buy it at all.
When Yao Weimin learned this information, he was more sure and confident about trading with Edward again.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Daniel and Nina drove to the repair shop.
Yao Weimin saw the brother and sister coming, and knew that Edward should have returned to the manor, and he naturally would not refuse Daniel's warm invitation, so he happily got into the car and left the repair shop together.
"Second brother, I heard Nina say that you still have a batch of silk in your hand, do you know, after my father learned the news, he immediately asked me to invite you, haha...... His interest in silk seems to be greater than that of liquor! ”
On the way, Daniel said with a laugh.
Yao Weimin smiled and said, "Daniel, have your father's work matters been dealt with?" ”
"I guess, but my father won't let us ask about his work, and I don't know the specifics."
Daniel responded truthfully.
With Nina's translation, the two chatted about other topics along the way, and at about four o'clock, the car drove into the manor.
Entering the castle hall again, Edward was already sitting on the sofa waiting, and when he saw Yao Weimin's figure, he laughed and stood up to say hello.
"Haha...... Mr. Zhang (This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
Hello, I have received the first batch of liquor, the quality is very good, I like it very much! ”
As he spoke, he invited Yao Weimin to sit down.
"Mr. Edward, I know that you are busy with official business and often have to work outside overnight, let's get straight to the point, I plan to ship a batch of silk, and in view of the smooth cooperation between us in liquor, I would like to talk to you first."
Yao Weimin took the cigar handed by Edward and said straight to the point.
"Okay, that's great, I don't know how much silk Mr. Zhang plans to trade?"
Edward asked with a smile on his face as he lit his cigar.
"It depends on the situation, the specific quantity is not good, after all, the border has been a little tight in the past two days, in view of this condition, as well as price considerations, I may reduce the number of shipments."
Yao Weimin observed Edward's expression, and when he saw that the latter frowned slightly, he deliberately continued: "Of course, my hometown is rich in silk, and there is not much of a problem with the supply at present. ”
After listening to this, Edward groaned, took out the silk fabric that Yao Weimin gave Nina last night from under the coffee table, pointed and asked, "Mr. Zhang, can your later supply be guaranteed to be of the same quality as this?" ”
"Yes, I can guarantee that." Yao Weimin nodded.
"In that case, I can give you a hundred and fifty rubles a meter, and if you give me all the silk you have shipped, I will exchange it with you the equivalent of gold!"
"One hundred and fifty rubles...... Yao Weimin groaned slightly, hesitated for a while, and then raised his head and said:
"Sir Edward, that's the case, I can accept this price, but if the wind on the border is too tight, then I may not be able to transport it, and even the transportation of liquor may be affected."
Edward was stunned when he heard this, and immediately laughed again, "Haha...... Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, you can transport 5,000 catties of liquor unconsciously, I believe that good luck will always be with you! ”
"To tell you the truth, there have suddenly been a lot of patrols on the border on your side in the past two days, fortunately I got the news in advance, otherwise it would be really dangerous!"
Yao Weimin looked at him with a smile and said suddenly.
Edward was still laughing, but the faint fluctuation in his eyes couldn't escape Yao Weimin's eyes.
"Sir Edward, then let's talk about the price, one hundred and fifty rubles a meter, and then I can bring you about a thousand horses in the first batch, our so-called one piece of cloth, converted into your unit, is about 13.3 meters, and it will be traded with liquor tomorrow night, no problem, right?"
He asked with a smile.
"Yes! I'll have the equivalent of gold ready, haha......"
Edward laughed and stood up, and personally dragged Yao Weimin to the restaurant to eat.
During the banquet, Nina was dressed beautifully and sat next to Yao Weimin, with a touch of intoxicating color flowing in her eyes.
Yao Weimin talked and laughed vigorously, with Nina's translation, and the whole banquet was full of laughter.
The deal for silk had also been negotiated, and he had brought with him a total of four thousand horses of silk, one thousand at a time, so that the deal would be completed earlier than the liquor.
The purchase price of a piece of silk in China is 48 yuan, which is about 13.3 rubles when converted into rubles, and now the price of 150 rubles a meter can be sold for 1995 rubles, which is more than a hundred times more.
In the same way, if the rubles obtained by a thousand horses of silk are exchanged for gold, it is close to two thousand five hundred kilograms, which is much higher than the profit of liquor!
In the next few days, Yao Weimin stayed in the repair factory during the day, occasionally going out to sea with Hua Li, Thomas and others to fish and hunt in the mountains, and at night he would take out liquor and silk to trade with Daniel in exchange for a large amount of gold.
Until the end of the last batch of liquor transactions, it was Daniel and Nina who came to meet him at night, and Edward did not show up from beginning to end, but through asking Nina from the side, Edward was always in the manor and did not go to the barracks to handle official business.
This made Yao Weimin feel a little relieved, but every time the transaction ended, he would still mention the matter of transporting the gold back to China overnight in person to avoid accidents.
At this point, 33,000 catties of liquor and 4,000 horses of silk were all traded, and through Edward, they were exchanged for a large amount of gold and stored in Yao Weimin's space.
(This chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 238: Trading Greed Gold
He roughly calculated, this time when he came to Lao Maozi's side, the liquor earned him a total of more than 2,000 kilograms of gold, and the silk earned him more than 9,900 kilograms of gold, and the total amount of gold exceeded 12,000 kilograms!
"It's time to go back...... Yao Weimin slumped on the bed, contentedly planning the time to leave.
At noon the next day, he mentioned to Hua Li about returning to China during dinner, and the latter showed reluctance on his face.
Although the second brother has only been here for a few days, he has already helped him get a lot of powerful contacts.
Vasily, Axim, and Daniel also became familiar with Hua Li.
Hua Li felt that if the second brother could stay here for a long time, it would probably not be long before he would be able to make a name for himself in the entire Vlikivostok, which would definitely be countless times stronger than if he was still in Wodiv Town.
"Second brother, when will you come over next time? When the time comes, let San'er come and tell me in advance, and I'll pick you up! He relieved himself and asked with a smile.
"Not necessarily, it depends on the situation in the country." Yao Weimin shook his head, and then patted Hua Li's shoulder, "Remember what I told you, accumulate strength here, or in a few years, we can let go without scruples!" ”
Speaking of this, Yao Weimin deliberately laughed and joked: "People call you flower chains, don't drop the chain for me when the time comes, lest you wait to see Gangzi in the future and find that it is not as good as the previous little brother!" Haha......"
"Don't worry, second brother, I won't let you down with my chain!" Hua Li nodded heavily, her expression was firm, and there was a strong look of expectation in her eyes.
Because he knew that Yao Weimin would choose to leave tonight, at the lunch table, several people drank a lot of wine, Hua Li rarely showed a sentimental meaning, claiming that he must fight for a world here, and then welcome the second brother and a group of brothers to visit here.
Yao Weimin encouraged him, and at the same time asked him to send someone across the border to ask San'er to send a telegram to him if he encountered something that could not be solved, and personally rushed over to help deal with it.
Hua Li was extremely moved in his heart, and responded to Yao Weimin's words sincerely, and kept gulping wine.
After eating, Yao Weimin went back to his room to rest and decided to leave for China tonight.
Two thousand catties of liquor have been given to Hua Li, although the friends he met here did not go to say goodbye, but he believed that Hua Li would handle it well, and he did not need to come forward in person.
The route back has been arranged, with the boat in the space, Yao Weimin doesn't plan to find the boat boss who runs the job, and he can cross the border unconsciously.
When night fell, Yao Weimin got into the off-road vehicle, Hua Li drove himself, and when he was about to leave, Nina suddenly arrived.
