Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Chapter 1808 Aftermath 2

There are also people with outstanding abilities among the British, and I met one in front of me; at least when I listened to the other person's speech, I was not very repulsive; at this moment, Pao Yugang was much calmer!

As a super tycoon, it is inevitable that he cherishes his talents; even if he cannot be used by him, he definitely does not want to make enemies! In the end, Hong Kong is still managed by the British. Don't look at the young man in front of you; after all, he is also the head of Hong Kong's financial department, so he saves face.

Of course I have to give some!

Pao Yugang said with a smile: "Director Qiao Ante said something. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten it. What a sin! Think about it, time flies so fast. Before you know it, we have known each other for more than ten years.

.At that time, you had just graduated from college, and now you are already a high-ranking member of the party; but it also shows from the side that we people are getting old and are about to withdraw from the stage of history!"

Being able to bend and stretch can be said to be the most basic requirement for being a tycoon and a tycoon. If you can't even do this, then I'm sorry; it's almost impossible to achieve anything.

The more successful people are, the more they know how to tolerate it. Yugang Pao has changed so quickly that Qiao Ante never expected it. No wonder he can become a super rich man. His capacity and reaction are beyond the reach of ordinary people!

In fact, not only Qiao Ante, but also Zheng Yutong on the side did not expect it. You must know that the two have known each other for more than 40 years. They do not know each other very well, but they are definitely very familiar. Bao Yugang is a person with pride in his bones, not anyone.

All of them can catch his eye. It seems that through hard work and language skills, the kid in front of him has been recognized by the charter king; the Zheng family will naturally pay attention to it.

In recent years, the Zheng family has been memorizing words and rarely interacts with outsiders. As for Zheng Yutong himself, except for Bao Yugang and Shen Bi, he has hardly seen guests. There is already some imbalance in status, and meeting them will be awkward!

The taxation in Xiangjiang is mainly profit income tax, and the enterprises under the Zheng family are still making up for the shortfall; there is no profit. Therefore, there is not much communication with Xiangjiang financial officials.

At the same time, the British also know what the current state of the Zheng family is. If they take the initiative to come to the door, they are causing trouble for themselves. There are so many good companies that have not paid attention to it. The life or death of the Zheng family has nothing to do with them. This makes both parties rarely

Meet!

Therefore, Zheng Yutong was not particularly familiar with the upstart Joante.

It's no good when the British come to them. In the past, it didn't matter if they made some money and donated some money. Now they are filling the shortfall every day, and the remaining funds are used for charity!

Being recognized by Pao Yugang is enough to explain the problem; we should focus on it in the future.

The charter king didn't know it yet, but it was his ideas that changed some of Shark Dan's ideas, paving the way for many fierce confrontations in the future.

Joante smiled and said: "Sheng Bao is joking, you can call me whatever you want; as long as you remember that there is such a person."

"As for the term "Dao Lao", there is still some distance between it and Your Excellency; now is the time when the Spring and Autumn Period is at its peak, but I dare not make any judgments."

"The Governor-General's invitation to Bao Sheng and Zheng Sheng today must be clear to both of them. The British Empire considers itself relatively qualified for the management of Hong Kong. Your ability to become a super tycoon has something to do with the support of the United Kingdom."

"At this moment, the British Empire is facing an unprecedented crisis. I hope you two can lend a helping hand. The whole of Britain will be grateful."

The polite words have been finished, and we must get to the point; there is not much time left for him!

I didn't expect that the boy in front of me would be so direct, without giving the two of them any room to think. It seemed that the British were really destined to win, otherwise it wouldn't be the case.

At this time, when he heard that Bao Zixuan was willing to buy 250 million pounds of British treasury bonds, Bao Yugang was instantly overjoyed. Invisibly, it relieved his burden; he could just lower the price proportionally, at least the British could not find anything wrong with it.

Even though the abandon ship landing was relatively successful, as a former world shipping king, the business he started is not so easy to give up. He still has many merchant ships making a living at sea.

Argentina is far away from Hong Kong, but the charter king is very concerned about matters at sea. Mainly because he can get first-hand information, and a system has been formed over the years.

The endless sea is full of unknowns. Shipping companies not only have to face the challenges of rough waves and other natural disasters; they also have to be prepared for man-made disasters at all times.

Piracy, war, and regional instability are all considered!

The Bao family has been engaged in the shipping industry for many years and is relatively well-informed about maritime news. How much losses the British suffered in South American waters have long been spread to Xiangjiang through their colleagues.

Even if you don’t understand military affairs, you still know that the Argentines can directly shoot down fighter jets and sink more than a dozen warships; their strength is no longer what it used to be. In addition, the British are fighting in the ocean, and a series of problems such as logistics and supply are superimposed.

Analysis: The probability of defeat is very high.

Once Britain loses the war, the domestic economic situation will definitely not be good; let alone the income from national debt, whether the principal can be recovered is still unknown.

Besides, after the British defeat, the pound will naturally depreciate; not to say it will become worthless, but it will definitely not be that high. Using pounds to buy British national debt is equivalent to giving money to the other party for nothing; Pao Yugang does not want to do anything stupid.

.

Now that Bao Zixuan is taking the lead, things will be much easier to handle!

Although Zheng Yutong did not know the situation as well as Bao Yugang, he was already short of funds. Naturally, he did not want to buy the so-called British treasury bonds. Even if he did not want to admit it, he knew that Bao Zixuan had indeed done a good thing this time!

Pao Yugang said with a smile: "Bao has always been grateful along the way. Now that the UK is encountering difficulties, it is natural that he will not stand by and watch. But every family has difficulties, and life has not been very easy in recent years."

"But even in difficult times, we must show sincerity; we will buy 20 million pounds of British government bonds."

Joante was not very happy when he heard that Bao Yu was willing to buy 20 million pounds just now; in front of him, he was also the second richest man in Hong Kong. Although his wealth was not comparable to that of Bao Zixuan, he was much better than others.

.

It is too insincere to only offer 20 million pounds now.

Before Qiao Ante could react, Zheng Yutong said first, "I think you should know what the situation of the Zheng family is."

"We will try our best to allocate 10 million Hong Kong dollars, which is better than nothing; I hope you can understand."

Unexpectedly, Zheng Yutong was even more ruthless and was only willing to give out 10 million, and it was still in Hong Kong dollars. But then I thought about it, the Zheng family has indeed been very difficult in recent years; it can be regarded as a heartfelt offer. It’s really hard to force anything. Is it possible to let people buy a house?

land to support the British war effort.

The world is not that logical. Sometimes you cannot look at more money or less money; the main thing is to look at the attitude of the other party. Bao Zixuan purchased 250 million pounds, which seems to be a lot; but compared with wealth, combined with the huge profits just earned in Japan;

It gives people the feeling of doing an errand or even giving charity.

The Zheng family has been unable to squeeze out much profit, at least that has been the case in recent years. Spending 10 million Hong Kong dollars is not the limit; but at least it will make it impossible for people to find fault; and even to a certain extent, it will make them more grateful.

Joante thought for a moment and said: "Sheng Bao, when the Prime Minister talked with Governor Wilson, he mentioned you many times. He said that you are the most trustworthy partner of the British Empire and a close friend."

"It stands to reason that many things cannot be forced, but you also know what the current situation of the UK is. This time the Argentines must be completely defeated, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

"The strength of the Bao family is obvious to all in Hong Kong and even the whole world. I hope that you can do your best, and the whole of Britain will definitely not forget this kindness."

It has been more than ten years since I came to Xiangjiang. Qiao Ante does not know everything about the strength and temperament of the tycoons, but I know something about them.

The Charter King is a person who cares about face. In fact, he is not the only one; all super tycoons are like this. After all, no one wants to be looked down upon. After his status has reached a certain level, face can represent his strength.

Just like just now, they saw him coming; the two of them didn't say anything. Because in the minds of Bao Yugang and Zheng Yutong, such an occasion must have the governor over, and what if the subordinates came over? Obviously they didn't pay attention to the two of them, and they were definitely in a bad mood.

I will be happy; it is perfectly normal to give you looks and say some unpleasant things.

In addition, Pao Yugang has a good personal relationship with the Iron Lady, and they have just given him enough respect. At this moment, the Prime Minister is mentioned again, and the other party should change.

Bao Yugang knew that 20 million pounds was no longer enough to satisfy the other party. He really agreed with that sentence; the Lord of Hell is easy to deal with, but the devil is difficult to deal with. So he thought for a while and said: "I also know the difficulties of the British Empire, and the consumption of funds by war.

;It can be described as very huge.”

"After all, the Bao family's strength is limited, and with the recent launch of some new projects, it is difficult to allocate too much funds in a short period of time. Unless part of the industry is sold off, it will be very difficult."

"But when he thinks about the difficulties in the UK, Bao will not make things difficult for his friends; he will do his best to allocate an additional 20 million pounds."

Being able to get the other party to come up with an extra 20 million pounds is a great achievement; you can't push too hard. As for Zheng Yutong, forget it! If you don't ask for your own support, it's already very good; as much as you can, it's better than nothing at all.

Express strong!

Afterwards, he exchanged a few words with Bao Yugang and Zheng Yutong, and then walked towards the next target.

Seeing Li Chaoren and Li Shauji together, Qiao Ant didn't hesitate at all; he stepped forward directly. At this moment, he didn't care whether they were welcome or not. As long as he could strike up a conversation and let the other party buy British treasury bonds, it would be a victory.

Er Li is not as easy to talk to as Bao Yugang. Every time he talks about him, he doesn't talk about the topic at all.

Joante considered himself a master negotiator and even took special training for this purpose.

But when meeting Li Chaoren, especially with Li Shauji cooperating with him, it can be said that there is no advantage at all, and he even feels like a primary school student.

In the end, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and let the two of them spend 10 million pounds each to buy British government bonds.

After this incident, Joante was no longer so confident; but it was not all bad, as his arrogance had changed a lot. It can only be said that Li Chaoren belongs to the category of super masters, and he is still far from it.

Then I came into contact with several super tycoons, not only Chinese, but also many British. Being able to come to the Governor's Palace for the dinner was naturally a wealthy person; they all gave me face and purchased a portion of British treasury bonds.

At last count, the businessmen that Joante contacted were willing to buy 245 million pounds of government bonds. The results cannot be said to be great, but they are already very good.

After hearing Qiao Ante's introduction, Wei Yixin knew very well that the tasks assigned by the Prime Minister could no longer be completed.

But now is not the time to give up. The war has not officially started yet. He has decided to visit Bao Zixuan in person. At this moment, except for Bao Zixuan, even if others are supporting him, it does not mean much.

After the staff compiled the data, Wei Yixin was very considerate and asked his subordinates to go back and rest.

The work intensity has been very intense in the past few days, especially today; there is no rest for a moment. One person is enough to report to the country; no matter how many people are left, it will not be of much help!

Iron Lady has been under a lot of pressure in recent days. After World War II, although Britain has also experienced some wars, it basically waved the flag behind the United States and never played the leading role; the consumption is not big!

But it was her turn to be in power, and there were two wars; only Britain fought against Argentina.

Even if the war is won, there will inevitably be bloodshed and sacrifice; the cost will be astronomical.

The last Falklands War was due to some international factors and Britain itself could not afford to delay it. It did not ask Argentina to pay any compensation. It just protected the Falkland Islands and won some international reputation.

But those cannot be used as food and have no practical significance for the domestic economy.

The situation of local government bond issuance is not very ideal. Maybe the people are very patriotic; but they have no money and are powerless to support it.

Hong Kong may not be the only life-saving straw, but it is not close to that. Sufficient funds must be raised in Hong Kong, otherwise it will be extremely detrimental to the British Empire.

At this time, the secretary reported that there was an encrypted call from Xiangjiang; the Iron Lady did not hesitate to have someone transfer it.

Wei Yixin understood the character of the Iron Lady and said directly: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, a dinner was held at the Governor's Mansion tonight. Countless super tycoons in Hong Kong were all very considerate, and no one was absent!"

"Among them, Shen Bi purchased 500 million pounds of bonds on behalf of HSBC Bank, and Bao Zixuan purchased 250 million pounds. Both Swire and Jardine Matheson are very supportive; in addition, Bao Yugang also spent 40 million pounds to purchase British treasury bonds."

"Currently, there are 78 wealthy businessmen tonight, who can digest a total of 1.65 billion pounds of national debt!"

After hearing this number, Iron Lady was not very satisfied; it was far from the goal in her heart.

However, Wei Yixin's next plan gave her hope; at the same time, she said that if there was a problem or the incident came to light, she would be transferred back to the UK.

It is a promise, and at the same time it also means that the other party can act confidently and boldly; at the critical moment, she will not stand idly by and do nothing to save her; it can also be regarded as a reassurance for Wei Yixin.

Of course, that's all something to talk about later, and it's not a last resort; no one wants to take risks.

The two of them were quite satisfied and ended the call; it was a not-so-perfect ending to the dinner!
