After handing the things to Chief Yang, Chen Ran completely put the matter aside. He knew very well that Zhang Hongjun was finished. It was useless to have any background involved in this kind of thing, especially since Zhang Hongjun himself was still in Hulao Zhongguan.
He didn't even have a chance to escape.
Now there are only two outcomes for Zhang Hongjun, one is life imprisonment and the other is death penalty.
No matter which one it is, Zhang Hongjun will never be able to trouble him again in the future.
Not only Zhang Hongjun but also Chen Hu, the person behind them, may not have the energy to investigate him again in the future.
Even so, for his safety, Chief Yang still took necessary safety measures for him, firstly, he wore a pistol, and secondly, he arranged for a central security guard.
If he was in danger, these two arrangements would obviously be of no use to Chen Ran, but this time he did not refuse because Director Yang told him that he would be assigned two bodyguards with good skills and strong business capabilities.
, these two bodyguards not only protect his personal safety, but also work part-time as his assistant to the deputy director of the office. Not only can they help him deal with official matters, but also private matters can be left to them.
In other words, these two bodyguards will serve him in all aspects from now on.
Chen Ran agreed immediately after understanding what Director Yang meant. He was lacking talents in this field. Although the people sent by Director Yang would definitely listen to Director Yang behind his back, what did it matter? As long as
He maintains such a relationship with Chief Yang, so if they listen to Chief Yang, they must listen to him. He has already demonstrated his abilities in front of General Xia and Chief of Staff Feng, Chief Yang. At the same time, although he also has ambitions
, but he has no ambition to gain real power in the military. Neither General Yang nor Chief of Staff Feng will fall out with him as long as they are not stupid.
In fact, Chen Ran didn't know that this arrangement for him was a kind of privilege in the army, a privilege that only the serving or retired chiefs of the Military Commission had.
…
In the next two days, Chen Ran focused on the company.
After arranging for Cao Huiyao to join the company, he began to prepare for his public offering trip to Myanmar.
In fact, there is nothing to prepare, the main thing is to raise funds.
Zhu Feng told him that when he went to participate in the public sale in Myanmar, the funds he won from Zhang Hongjun and others and the funds from selling gold had not been used. Although he had already planned to acquire a jewelry company at that time, he thought at that time
However, he only used about 2 billion to acquire it, so that he would still have more than 3 billion in liquidity on hand. In this way, he would naturally not have to worry about the funds to participate in the Myanmar public offering, but who knows what will happen in the end?
He spent more than 4 billion and owed 3 billion in loans, so that now he only has 300 million in working capital on hand.
Three hundred million yuan converted into euros would be more than thirty million. He was planning to take advantage of the Burmese jadeite public sale to make a big splash. Naturally, such a small amount of money would not be enough, but the time for the public sale was coming soon. Think about it again.
It was obviously too late to make money in other ways, so he could only raise as much as possible.
When Chen Ran called Yang Shijie, he also called Wang Liang. The purpose was naturally to inquire about the financial situation of the sword factory.
Before going to Tengchong, Chen Ran made a series of arrangements for the sword factory. Officially, Chen Ran introduced Ma Zhiyuan's secretary He Dami to Wang Liang. In terms of sales, Chen Ran introduced Wang Liang to his work at Dingsheng Auction House.
His old classmates Jiang Tao and Vice President Luo, although he was always outside in the following years, no one with some energy in Tianzhong City knew that the Sword Factory was his company.
Moreover, it was precisely because of his absence that Ma Zhiyuan, Zhu Feng, the old man and other people who were familiar with him took the initiative to look after him. They were more worried about his sword factory than he was himself.
, and with their help, the development of Baojian Factory could not be smoother.
In Tianzhong City, the Kunwu Dao and Kunwu Sword produced by his sword factory have become one of the signatures of Tianzhong City’s traditional culture, and are sold in several surrounding cities and ancient cultural capitals such as Zhongdu Huadu.
Li has already gained a certain reputation.
Since his trip to Tengchong, he has never been to the Sword Factory and has only come back twice. Both times, he only stayed at home for two days or one day and then left in a hurry, so he never had a good talk with Wang Liang.
However, I also heard about the good development of Baojian Factory from Yang Shijie and Chen Ping. For example, Chen Ping opened the second restaurant in the city with funds embezzled from Baojian Factory.
Although Chen Ran knew that the Baojian Factory was developing well, he still did not expect that it would develop so well. Apart from the funds misappropriated by Chen Ping and the funds used to build buildings and buy land for the Baojian Factory, there was actually more than 200 million in the company's account.
Idle funds.
More than 200 million yuan is not much for Chen Ran now, but you have to know how long it took him to buy the sword factory. It only took three months to make a full calculation. There is no doubt that he made more than 200 million yuan in three months.
It's a bit scary, considering that the total capital he invested in the sword factory was less than 10 million.
Of course, Chen Ran can also imagine that this kind of business relies on novelty. The business may be very hot at the beginning but will gradually calm down.
Wang Liang also told Chen Ran about this. The Tianzhong market has tended to be calm now. After all, there are only so many rich people in a prefecture-level city. The sword factory is still following the high-quality route, so it can only
Sold to rich people.
Regarding this point, Chen Ran is not worried. There are only a few wealthy people in Tianzhong City, but there are many across the country. They have just opened half of the market in Central Plains and they have made so much money. When the national market is opened, they will still not make money.
Are you too weak to count money?
To be honest, after having so much money on hand, Chen Ran looked down upon the Sword Factory. Now that he saw the Sword Factory making such a huge profit, he became obsessed with the Sword Factory again.
Chen Ran felt that it was necessary to expand the scale of the sword factory. It is no longer what it used to be. When he first bought the sword factory, he did not have the strength to compete with the old sword factories in Tianzhong City. It is different now, so there is no need to worry.
Of course, whether to expand or not is a matter for the future. His main concern now is the Myanmar Jade Public Sale.
…
Chen Ran asked Wang Liang to leave 10 million in working capital, and then transferred the remaining 230 million to his bank account.
When Yang Shijie came to Beijing, Chen Ran asked him to bring two pairs of luminous beads from the treasure cave and some good-quality gemstones. In addition, Chen Ran selected a few paintings from Zhang Hongjun's more than twenty palace paintings.
Those with repetitive styles or low collection value were handed over to Yang Xinghe along with the luminous pearls and gems brought by Yang Shijie.
Of the things Chen Ran brought out from the basement of Zhang Hongjun's villa, General Yang only took away the evidence account books and share documents, but nothing else.
When Chen Ran reported to Director Yang, he did not hide it from Director Yang, but Director Yang did not ask about these things. Not only did he not ask, he did not check, he just took away what should be taken away, and finally these things were left behind.
It fell into Chen Ran's hands.
Chen Ran felt at ease with it. If he hadn't brought these things out, he wouldn't have known what would have happened to them. Of course, if Director Yang had taken away all the things, he wouldn't have any complaints. Although these things were valuable,
It's big, but it doesn't make him think about it. At most, it's a pity. Of course, when the "Zhang Hongjun case" is settled, he can always ask Director Yang for a few paintings.
These things allowed Chen Ran to get one billion in funds from Yang Xinghe. Of course, the one billion in funds was not the final price of these things, but Chen Ran stored the things in Yang Xinghe's auction company until they were auctioned.
Afterwards, he had to pay back more and make up less. After all, time was too tight. When the things were auctioned, Chen Ran's day lilies were already cold.
This can be regarded as normal business dealings. Generally, auction companies have such business. However, other auction companies are definitely not as easy to talk to as Yang Xinghe. They prepared one billion for Chen Ran without saying a word. It seems that he meant
If Chen Ran needs it, he can raise some more for Chen Ran, but it will take time.
Chen Ran naturally rejected the other party's kindness. It was a normal business transaction for him to hand over the items to the other party for auction and then get one billion from the other party. It could also be done with other auction companies, but it might be a little less expensive.
At most, it will only be 500 million, but in any case, this is still within the scope of business transactions.
Before you can figure out something, it's better to keep a certain distance from Yang Xinghe. Besides, Yang Xinghe will need at least half a month. In this time, he might be able to free up funds.
…
After getting one billion in funds from Yang Xinghe, Chen Ran got another two billion in funds from Rong Mingyang. To be precise, he sold a magic weapon for two billion.
This magical artifact was sold to Ye Xiangdong, who had been quarreling with Rong Mingyang. Of course, according to Ye Xiangdong, this was not called a transaction, but Chen Ran gave him a magical artifact, and then he handed Chen Ran two
One billion in pilgrimage fees.
Well, just think of it as a mountain worship fee, it’s the same anyway... It wasn’t until later that Chen Ran learned that in the warlock profession, the mountain worship fee is actually protection fee to put it bluntly. Ye Xiangdong paid him 2 billion in mountain worship fees.
, he also gave Ye Xiangdong a magical weapon, and he would become Ye Xiangdong's backstage when he met other warlocks in this profession.
In fact, what Chen Ran didn't know was that Ye Xiangdong stayed in the capital this time because he offended a master in this field abroad and ran to China to seek asylum. But nowadays, in this industry, there are only liars, even if
They were all dabblers who relied on magic weapons, but there were no real experts. So he visited several so-called masters in China, but they all came back disappointed until he met Rong Mingyang...
Of course, Ye Xiangdong naturally didn't know that his so-called backer was actually just a layman in his twenties who didn't know as much as him in this regard... But if he really knew Chen Ran's background, he would probably only regard Chen Ran as a master.
, because the magic formations in this profession have long been lost. Today’s warlocks rely on magical weapons. In other words, if the magical weapons are powerful, people will also be powerful. Without the magical weapons, there is actually not much difference between them and ordinary people. At most
That means you have more knowledge.
…
Although he didn't know that the two billion given by Ye Xiangdong was actually protection money given to him, Chen Ran could also guess that he took out another magic weapon and completely shocked Ye Xiangdong and let Ye Xiangdong completely shock him.
Considered a master in this field.
This is exactly what Chen Ran wants. Only by shocking the other party will the other party not be interested in him. Naturally, the other party's request to see him is obviously not something he can agree to.
With these two billion, Chen Ran's hands suddenly became more spacious. Previously, he had more than 200 million from the sword factory and one billion from the auction house. Now he has a full 3.5 billion on hand.
