Chapter 282: Investment
"Normally, in another thirty years, I should be born, and now I am destined to wait for that day, but brother, you can, so I hope you can help him then, do you understand what I mean?" Monet said solemnly.
Gao Hui nodded and replied, "I understand, in fact, I also want to help me after thirty-two years, so I can fully understand what you mean!" ā
Monet breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "That's good, in fact, I have considered this matter a long time ago, and I have also imagined many methods, such as depositing some money in the bank and then designating myself to withdraw it after thirty years, but it is not reliable, and it is easy to be exploited by people with ulterior motives, so I still entrust it to you the most assured!" ā
Then Monet teased: "Do you think there will be a rule that the king does not see the king?" ā
"I'm going to do this experiment, but unfortunately I can't tell you the answer!" Gao Hui said with a wry smile.
After chatting for a while, Monet said goodbye and left, and Alice asked Gao Hui curiously, "Brother Hui, what is Mr. Monet looking for you?" ā
"Oh, he's optimistic about the development of our Yunhua Times, so he plans to invest a million dollars to buy 30 percent of the shares!" Gao Hui replied lightly.
"What?! A million dollars? Buy only 30% of the shares?! IāI heard you right, right? Alice couldn't believe her ears.
Gao Hui nodded calmly and replied, "You heard it right! ā
"But why did Monsieur Monet buy our shares?" Alice asked.
"Didn't I say it, Mr. Monet is optimistic about the development of our "Yunhua Times"!" Gao Hui replied impatiently.
At this time, Alice recovered from the shocking news just now, and muttered in her heart, no matter how optimistic she is, she can't use a million dollars, and I don't think I can use a hundred thousand dollars, but she also knows that it is inconvenient to ask this question now, so she changed the topic and asked, "Then when will this money arrive?" Do we need to do a ceremony or something? ā
"Tomorrow, I will go to the law firm to go through the shareholding procedures, as for the ceremony, forget it, and wait until our "Yunhua Times" develops, and then form an alliance with "Comet", just like the current "Jewel" in Tokyo!" Gao Hui explained.
"Jewels? Is it Mr. Edogawa Ranbu's recently created "Jewel"? Alice asked tentatively.
"Well, it's this "Jewel", Mr. Monet has reached a cooperation intention with Mr. Edogawa when he went to Tokyo a while ago, and our "Yunhua Times" will also join this system in the future!"
"That's great, I feel like I'm energized right now!" Alice said excitedly.
"The First Evolution"
At the same time, Monet and Safina were also having a similar conversation, only to see Safina frowning and asking him: "Tony, I really don't understand, why do you invest so much money in this seemingly inconspicuous Yunhua Times?" ā
"Actually, I didn't vote for this newspaper, but Gao Hui!" Monet replied softly.
"Is there anything special about him? Of course, his experience during this period is legendary, but I don't think he can be worth so much money! Safina spoiled.
While chatting, Safina's face suddenly changed, and she plunged into Monet's arms and whispered: "Help me cover up and don't let the man in gray at 75 degrees see me!" ā
Although Monet didn't know why Safina did this, he obediently took off his coat and draped it on Safina's body, and bought a hat from a vendor on the side and fastened it on Safina's head, but even so, Safina still shrunk in Monet's arms.
It wasn't until two minutes later that Monet reminded, "The man has left." ā
Safina cautiously used the mirror of the compact to observe, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to Monet, "Tony, let's get out of here." ā
On the way back to the hotel, Safina explained to Monet: "That man was my companion just now, and if he finds out that I am not dead, it may be in trouble!" ā
"I'll just say, what kind of person can scare you like this!" Monet suddenly realized, but then said, "But I don't think he's coming for you!" ā
Safina nodded in agreement, "Of course, but even if you stumble upon it, it's not a good thing!" ā
Then he changed the topic and asked, "Tony, do you remember the merry agent I told you about who had two homes and countless women in Ice City and Khabarovsk?" Actually, I'm talking about this Sholokhov! ā
Monet nodded and replied, "Of course I remember, he was my idol at one time!" ā
In fact, Monet was telling the truth, according to Safina's description, some intelligence officers were responsible for the intelligence work of Ice City at that time, although most of the spy war dramas were played in the Demon City, but in fact, the complexity and danger of the Ice City at that time were definitely higher than that of the Demon City, because after all, the Demon City still has a concession, as long as you hide in it, you can basically save your life on the bright side, and there is no such place in Ice City.
Moreover, the situation here in Bingcheng is extremely complicated, the Soviets, the Japanese, the British, the Americans, the military commanders, the central commanders, and almost every imaginable force of our party will station intelligence personnel here, a proper intelligence center. (See Peace Hotel)
In addition, the gap between the rich and the poor here is much larger than that of the magic capital, and dying of freezing and starvation is not an adjective here, but it can really freeze people to death!
However, no matter how dangerous the environment is, there can be people who are like fish in water, and this Sholokhov's small life is quite nourishing, and he mainly uses the family visit system.
This family visit system looks strange at first glance, because the two countries are at war, how can they still visit each other's relatives? In fact, this kind of regular family visit actually involved a transaction between the Soviet Union and Japan, a transaction about the railway.
After the Russo-Japanese War, the Imperial Russian government was forced to hand over the section of the Eastern Railway from Changchun to Lushun to the Japanese government, but the section from Changchun to Manchuria in the north was still under Russian control.
After the establishment of the Soviet Union, Moscow signed the Sino-Soviet Agreement with the Chinese government on the Outline of the Settlement of Outstanding Cases, and this section of the railway became an asset of the Sino-Soviet condominium, but in fact it was still managed by the Soviet Union.
In the following ten years, the staff and garrisons arranged by the Soviet Union to manage this section of the railway were equivalent to settling in China, and most of their families also moved over, forming settlement areas of different sizes in several cities along the railway line.
