In the past, Yan Xiong would have been intimidated by the army formation in front of him, but after following Shi Zhijian for a long time, he had already become immune to such big scenes, not to mention that he himself had personally been in charge of an international mercenary army, so he just smiled at this.
: "What are you afraid of? Get off the bus with me!"
The Mercedes-Benz stopped.
Douji Qiang came down first and hurriedly helped Yan Xiong open the car door.
Yan Xiong got out of the car, straightened his suit, raised his head and raised his chest like a boss.
Seeing this, Douji Qiang and Agui felt suddenly confident for some reason, and they quickly took a deep breath, straightened their chests and raised their heads.
"Play music!" Colonel Nachai ordered.
Military music suddenly sounded, deafening.
Amidst the sound of military music, Colonel Nachai, dressed in military uniform, stepped forward to shake hands with Yan Xiong: "Welcome, Your Excellency Yan Xiong!"
Yan Xiong smiled and shook hands with Nachai: "Hello, Colonel Nachai!"
Agui and Doujiqiang, who were following Yan Xiong, heard that the other party was actually a colonel. They immediately exchanged words and then puffed up their chests again, feeling extremely honored.
In fact, Yan Xiong was feeling all kinds of things inside at this moment.
There was a time when he was very prestigious in Hong Kong, but no matter how powerful he was, he was just a Chinese detective. He still had to bow down in front of the ghost guy and had no self-respect at all.
But now, I can actually be on an equal footing with a colonel-level figure here, and the other person treats me with respect. Who would believe this?!
Of course, while Yan Xiong was sighing, he did not forget that his current status was all thanks to Shi Zhijian. Without Shi Zhijian's blessing, he would not have the glory he has now.
Since joining Shi Zhijian, Yan Xiong's identity and status have changed drastically! Others laugh at him as a follower, but only Yan Xiong himself knows that this follower is not something anyone can do! Even if he is a Hong Kong Governor, he will not change!
"Mr. Yan, please come this way!" Amidst the sound of military music, Colonel Nachai invited Yan Xiong to walk towards the military camp.
Yan Xiong, accompanied by Nachai, said as he walked: "Colonel Nachai, this is the first time for everyone to meet. We can actually talk about many things, right?"
Naichai immediately laughed: "Sure enough, the people Mr. Shi entrusted to him were quick to talk! I like it!"
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the VIP reception room of the military camp. Naicai asked someone to prepare tea, and took the initiative to invite Yan Xiong to sit down. Then he glanced at Agui and Doujiqiang, who had been following Yan Xiong closely.
Yan Xiong smiled and said: "They are all my trusted subordinates, and I can talk about anything in front of them!"
"In this case, I will talk openly! I guess you already know the specific details, Mr. Yan. We are continuing a batch of arms, but we are a little nervous about funds, so we want to..." Naicai stopped talking.
When Yan Xiong heard this, he smiled and said nothing.
Agui and Fighting Cock have strong hearts, but ten thousand horses fly by!
arms?!
My boss, Master Yan is having too much fun now!
Naicai originally wanted Yan Xiong to answer the conversation, but she didn't expect that Yan Xiong was an old fox and didn't even speak.
Helpless, Naicai had no choice but to say: "So I would like to ask Mr. Yan to go back and have a few words with Mr. Shi, and ask for a few more days of grace in terms of funds -"
"Okay!" Yan Xiong answered neatly.
Naicai didn't expect Yan Xiong to be so easy to talk to, so he immediately said happily: "Seriously?"
"Of course it's true!" Yan Xiong said with a smile, "We are all in business, and our words are like spit and nails, which is more real than real money!"
"That's really great!" Nachai was extremely happy.
"But please don't get too happy too early. Before I finish speaking -" Yan Xiong said with a smile, "Your money can be paid later, of course our goods will be delivered later!"
"What do you mean?" Nai Guai was stunned.
"Don't you understand what I mean?" Yan Xiong still smiled, looking harmless, "delivering the goods with one hand and paying the money with the other. This is a matter of course. Now that your money is later, of course our goods will also be later.
Some……"
"You——" Naichai didn't expect Yan Xiong to be so cunning, and almost made a lawsuit.
Fortunately, tea was served at this time, breaking the tense atmosphere.
Yan Xiong picked up the tea and took a sip. He didn't seem to notice that Naichai was angry at all.
Naichai endured it for a long time, remembering General Wanlong's instructions, and then sat down again.
It was this single scene that scared Agui and Doujiqiang behind Yan Xiong.
Oh my God, this is on someone else's territory, or in a military camp, and there are people with guns around!
By the time the two of them realized this, they were already sweating.
Colonel Nachai considered his words for a moment, then looked at Yan Xiong and said: "Mr. Yan, I know this will make it difficult for you, but I still hope you can help me with this -"
After saying these words, Nachai clapped his hands outside, and soon someone came in and handed Nachai a large envelope.
Naichai smiled and handed the envelope to Yan Xiong and said: "According to your rules in Hong Kong, I am full of sincerity!"
Yan Xiong took it, opened it with his fingers, glanced at it, and smiled: "Sure enough, Colonel Nachai is really sincere, I like it very much!"
"Hahaha! That's good!" Nachai breathed a sigh of relief.
"But -" Yan Xiong returned the big envelope, "I have received your sincerity, but as for the contents, I dare not accept it!"
Not to mention Naicai was stunned at this time, even Agui and Doujiqiang who were following Yan Xiong were also stunned. They knew Yan Xiong’s character and was insatiable! They were the kind of people who plucked their feathers and took advantage of them, and now they would actually do something like this
Turn a blind eye to how much money you have?!
"That's unreasonable! Are you kidding me?" Colonel Nachai felt that he had been tricked by Yan Xiong and immediately said angrily.
Agui and Doujiqiang were so frightened that they were sweating just now, but now they are out of their minds!
However, Yan Xiong still looked like an old god. He picked up the tea and used the tea lid to scrape the foam: "Mr. Shi trusted me, so he gave me this business! I, Yan, used to be very greedy, I guess.
You have already checked my details, but now that I am helping Mr. Shi, I must first be worthy of Mr. Shi, and secondly, I must be worthy of my own conscience! So, I'm sorry -——
Yan Xiong raised his head and looked at Naichai with contempt: "I can't take your money!"
The atmosphere instantly solidified.
The entire reception room was completely silent!
at this time--
"Hahaha!" There was a burst of laughter, and General Wanlong came in from the outside and clapped: "Sharp! Sharp! Yan Xiong, right? It seems to me that I underestimated you and treated you as the Inspector Hua from before! Yes!
Come on, I apologize to you, my men were reckless!"
When Yan Xiong saw General Wanlong appearing, he quickly stood up, clasped his fists and bowed, "Is this General Wanlong? Yan is so troublesome when he comes here!"
"Please sit down!" Wan Long made an invitation gesture.
Colonel Nachai also stood up early to give up his seat to Wanlong.
Wanlong Da Ma Jin Dao sat down, looked at Yan Xiong and said: "Mr. Shi is indeed surrounded by strong generals. I was rude just now. Now let's be honest - what should we do before you are willing to help?"
Yan Xiong smiled and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that this time when Shi Zhijian called him over to negotiate, it would not be so easy. He did not expect that even Wan Long himself would appear.
"Actually, Mr. Shi has already made concessions -" Yan Xiong considered the words, "so I came up with two solutions. Since you are short of funds, you can mortgage things, or simply barter!"
"Oh, barter? How exactly does it work?" General Wanlong was very curious about this suggestion.
Pawning things is something Bandung doesn't even bother to do. It shows that he is very tasteless, mainly because it shows that he is not strong enough. If other warlords hear about it, won't they be laughed to death? As for "barter", it is more acceptable.
Already.
Yan Xiong smiled slightly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, put it down, then looked up at General Wanlong and said: "Mine!"
"Impossible!" Wan Long waved his hand and refused on the spot!
You must know that Thailand is one of the countries with super rich mineral resources in Southeast Asia, especially jewelry resources. Red and sapphires are produced from Thai mining areas, and these precious rough stone mining areas have always been controlled by big guys like Bandung. Ordinary people
It's hard to intervene.
Bandung also relied on these rich gemstone deposits to keep the army fat and strong. Now Yan Xiong actually asked him to exchange the mines for Shi Zhijian's arms. He would never do this kind of thing of killing the goose and taking the egg.
Yan Xiong also seemed to expect that Wanlong would reject this proposal.
In fact, Yan Xiong was not sure about this proposal. He only knew that Shi Zhijian wanted him to solve this matter, so he had to rack his brains and side with Shi Zhijian to consider how to maximize the benefits.
So changing the mine was actually Yan Xiong's personal idea, and Shi Zhijian didn't know it yet.
It can be said that Yan Xiong is making a dangerous move in the army!
At this moment, Yan Xiong acted like he was not surprised at all and continued to smile: "Please, General, please let me finish what I have to say!"
"Say it!" Wan Long, after all, has a noble status and full of aura. He waved his hand and asked Yan Xiong to continue speaking.
"It's like this. Although we have obtained the mine, the management, transportation and other powers are still in your hands, General. It means that we have invested in this mine and the profits can be divided equally!"
"Equal share? Impossible!" Wan Long continued, "Do you know how much I can earn every year from this mine? It's not cost-effective to pay for your little arms!"
Yan Xiong smiled, "I haven't finished speaking yet!"
"explain!"
"Can I ask the general where you process the gems after you dig them out?"
“Of course it’s in our local area!”
"So does the general know about your local jewelry processing technology, design technology, and sales channels?"
Yan Xiong asked three times in succession.
Bandung was stunned for a moment. There are gem mines in Thailand, but Thailand is very primitive in gem processing and design. To be precise, there are not many professional talents. Therefore, after being mined, many gems are processed casually and then sold for money.
.
Seeing Wan Long thinking deeply, Yan Xiong continued: "Then General Bandung must have heard about Hong Kong's strength in gem sales - as an international metropolis, Hong Kong's gem industry can even rank among the top ten in Asia! More importantly
What’s more, our Mr. Shi happens to have a good friend named Zheng Yutong, who is in the gem business in Hong Kong! To be precise, their entire family relies on the gem business for a living, and no one can be more professional in this regard!”
"If, General Bandung, you are willing to nod and let us cooperate in operating the mines you control, then we can discuss with Mr. Zheng Yutong to do business directly with the general, and ignore the greedy middlemen who make the difference, and become business partners directly.
At that time, there was a one-stop shop for jewelry production, design, and sales, and the profits you earned would definitely be much greater than what you do now!"
Yan Xiong's words directly hit General Wanlong's heart.
Although Thailand produces gemstones, due to its backward technology in gemstone design, they cannot be sold at high prices in the international market. Many of the rough gemstones even have to be sent to Hong Kong for reprocessing and carving before being sold at huge profits.
To give a simple example, a sapphire is only worth US$3,000 after being designed in Thailand, but after being redesigned and packaged in Hong Kong, it can be sold for US$30,000 or even US$300,000!
In addition, although General Wan Long is a soldier, he is also very familiar with the jewelry industry in Hong Kong, and has even dealt with jewelry tycoons there.
Of course he had heard of the "Zheng Yutong" in Yan Xiong's mouth, knew him and had indirect transactions. Now Yan Xiong proposed that he could get rid of the middlemen who earn the price difference and directly hand over his gems to Zheng Yutong to design, build and sell. Then
The profits earned are absolutely huge!
Wan Long took a deep breath and looked at Yan Xiong: "How can I trust you?"
Yan Xiong smiled, knowing that he had persuaded the other party, he immediately took out a letter from his arms and said: "This is a letter written by our Mr. Shi to Mr. Zheng Yutong. If you, General Wanlong, nod now, then this letter will be mailed immediately."
!”
As he spoke, Yan Xiong handed the letter into Wan Long's hands.
Wan Long took the letter and looked at it, took a deep breath again, then held his chin and remained silent.
Yan Xiong knew that the critical point was reached at this time, so he kept on saying: "General, to put it bluntly, the mine is here with you, and you can't move it unless you move it! Besides, you are heavily guarded by troops, who dares to touch it? Besides, every month
Even how much is produced every day, you are thinking in your heart, how can you be afraid of us taking it for ourselves? Let's work together, we will pay and you will work hard, and then open up the sky and earth line in Hong Kong, and then you can sit back and relax, and cooperate to make a fortune! Talk about it!
Really, this is a good thing that many people can’t even think of. It’s hard to find it even with a lantern, so why are you so hesitant?”
Wan Long's sharp eyes flickered uncertainly.
Yan Xiong's heart was also aroused.
Behind him, Agui and Doujiqiang were about to die. It felt like the atmosphere was too tense.
suddenly--
"Okay! It's a deal!" Wan Long made a decision suddenly, his eyes burning, "Yan Xiong, right? I believe you!"
Yan Xiong's heart dropped to the ground, and he immediately stood up and extended his hand to Wanlong: "Happy cooperation!"
"Happy cooperation!" Wan Long stood up and shook hands with Yan Xiong.
Behind Yan Xiong, Agui and Douji Qiang were both stunned——
Master Yan actually concluded a business deal with this majestic general?!
It can be said that Yan Xiong’s words and deeds have refreshed their understanding!
Is this still Yan Xiong, the former top four detective?
Agui and Doujiqiang thought that Yan Xiong had returned to his original position before, but now it seems that they thought less. Mr. Yan has simply ascended to the altar!
If you go back to Hong Kong and tell others about this, won’t they all be scared to death?!
At this moment, Agui and Doujiqiang looked at Yan Xiong, who was shaking hands with Wan Long and talking and laughing happily. They suddenly felt that Mr. Yan was so familiar and yet so strange!
