Chapter 1668: Peace of mind with someone to rely on, before returning home
It was still dark, but Xu Banxia was already not sleepy at all. Although she was lying in bed with Zhou Chen, she just hugged Zhou Chen's arm tightly and couldn't fall asleep.
On the contrary, Zhou Chen was exhausted after a night of running around. Not long after lying in bed, he fell asleep.
Listening to Zhou Chen's light snoring, Xu Banxia gently raised her head and looked at Zhou Chen's face.
What happened tonight made her have a huge change in her perception of Zhou Chen. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to have such a side. Even if she didn't know what happened specifically, she knew that the process of Zhou Chen getting the money must be full of blood.
But Zhou Chen didn't tell her about the whole thing from beginning to end, and he did it all by himself. She was slow to realize it, and besides worrying, she was moved.
She knew that Zhou Chen did all this for her. If it wasn't for her, Zhou Chen would not have come to Tsarist Russia, let alone take the risk of doing such a thing. If he wasn't careful, he might even lose his life, but Zhou Chen just said a few words and it was over.
She is not a weak woman. Zhou Chen's behavior does not scare her. Instead, it gives her a strong sense of security. She has never had a man fight for her so hard, which makes her feel inexplicably at ease.
So in this foreign country, even if Zhou Chen really did something bad, she is willing to stand by Zhou Chen's side and accompany him all the time.
Thinking of this, she gently raised her head, kissed Zhou Chen's lips, then twisted her body, hugged Zhou Chen more tightly, closed her eyes, leaned in Zhou Chen's arms, and fell asleep very peacefully.
…………
After waking up, all the fatigue disappeared. Zhou Chen looked at Xu Banxia, who was leaning on him like a lazy cat, and reached out to hold her in his arms.
Xu Banxia is a strong woman. She is always vigorous and resolute in front of others. Although she is not yet developed and is far from being as domineering as she is in the plot, she is also very imposing. But now she is lying in her arms like a little woman, and the contrast is still sufficient.
Zhou Chen's action woke Xu Banxia up. She opened her confused eyes and saw that it was Zhou Chen. She lazily leaned into Zhou Chen's arms and found a comfortable position.
"Did you sleep well?"
"Yes, I'm already well."
Zhou Chen took the phone and took a look, and found that it was already past ten o'clock.
"We can go to dinner later. After dinner, we will go out for a walk."
Xu Banxia responded: "Well, although we didn't make any business this time, we will just take it as a trip. We will play here for a few days before returning home."
Zhou Chen naturally had no objection. He proposed to go out for a walk, but it was not just a casual walk. Yesterday, he had already interrogated the Russian woman Nina who conspired with him from Xiao Yang.
Nina was an important contact who helped Xu Banxia find military relations. Although Zhou Chen also had a way to get in touch with the Russian military, it was risky and not suitable for a businessman like Xu Banxia, so he thought it was more convenient and safer to go with Nina.
But of course he couldn't take the initiative to find Nina, so he planned to learn from the plot and let Xu Banxia meet Nina by chance. As long as they met, he believed Xu Banxia would recognize her, and it would be easier.
It was called a chance encounter, but it was just going to the place where Nina would appear. It might not be possible to meet her once or twice, but if it happened many times, there would always be a chance to meet her. If he still couldn't meet her, he could only use other methods.
Before getting up, Zhou Chen couldn't help but get close to Xu Banxia again. After getting up, Xu Banxia was still blaming Zhou Chen for torturing her.
Putting away the money Zhou Chen brought back last night, Xu Banxia said: "If I hadn't bought scrap steel this time, I would definitely go bankrupt, but with the money you brought back, I can hold on for a while. As long as I can survive this time, I must double it to do charity in the future."
In fact, she didn't want the money. After all, the money was brought back by Zhou Chen. Even if she didn't plan to return it, she felt that she should give it to Zhou Chen.
But Zhou Chen refused, insisting that the money was brought back for her, and that she happened to be in trouble, and the money could still be useful. In addition, she was really in a very difficult situation now, so she accepted Zhou Chen's kindness.
She was not a pedantic person. Although she wanted to use the money for charity, the premise was that she would survive first, and she was not noble enough to do such selfless things.
Zhou Chen held her hand and said, "This is called heaven always has a way out. Xu Banxia, you are a woman I am optimistic about. You have great luck and will definitely succeed."
Xu Banxia laughed out loud: "I am just a small boss. What great luck? It's like fortune telling. I think my greatest luck may be meeting you."
"That's right. I am also part of your luck. Believe me, there will be a way when the car reaches the mountain. Let's have a good time here for a few days, and maybe there will be a day when the willows are dark and the flowers are bright."
Seeing that Xu Banxia was a little depressed when she talked about scrap steel, Zhou Chen persuaded her in another way.
"In fact, it's not necessarily a bad thing that you haven't got any scrap steel now."
Xu Banxia was very surprised when she heard this and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Zhou Chen said: "Since the Luzhou Trade Fair, I have been paying attention to the steel industry, especially the international steel market. Recently, I found that the international steel price fluctuations are somewhat abnormal. Then I started to collect news and information from the international steel market and came to a conclusion that this year's international steel prices may fluctuate greatly, and it is very likely that there will be a sharp drop in the first half of the year."
"Is the steel price plummeting? Is it true?"
Xu Banxia was shocked. She has been in the scrap steel business for several years. It is normal for steel prices to fluctuate, but they are all small fluctuations. She has never experienced such a sharp drop as Zhou Chen said.
Zhou Chen said: "This is my judgment based on the international situation. It may not be accurate, but it still has a certain reference value."
Although Xu Banxia went to college, she didn't know much about the international situation, but she felt that Zhou Chen couldn't lie to her. What she wondered was whether Zhou Chen's judgment was really accurate. After all, Zhou Chen had not been in contact with the steel industry before. Is the answer really referenceable?
However, Zhou Chen knew very well that during the Chinese Spring Festival, the international steel price plummeted, from more than 1,000 to 700, which was a cliff-like drop.
In fact, there is another way, that is, to ship the scrap steel back to China before the steel price plummets, because the purchase price agreed by Xu Banxia and Zhao Lei is the steel price on the day when the scrap steel arrives at the port, so as long as it can arrive at the port before the steel price plummets, that is, four or five days before the New Year, and settle the bill quickly, it can be guaranteed to make money.
But the problem is that there are only ten days left before the New Year, and we have to find people and contact the Black Sea. Even if we reach an agreement, we have to contact the freight. Even if everything goes well, after completing these procedures, it will take until after the New Year to ship it back to China, so there is no time at all.
"Don't think about it for now. Let's go out for a walk. No matter when we go back, you must bring something for Xiao Chen and Tong Xiaoqi, right?"
"Yes, it's not easy to come here, so I must buy something for them, and leather jackets are very cheap here."
"Then let's go for a good walk and bring some local specialties back."
"Well, it's not long before the Chinese New Year. We will try to return home before the New Year. It's more comfortable to spend the Spring Festival at home."
…………
Gao Xinyi threw her phone aside angrily, and fell on the bed with an unhappy face.
"I can't get through the phone, and I don't know when he can return home. It's so boring and boring to have no one to play with."
Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, her mother is busy, so she doesn't urge her to work, so she is more free now. She is free, but she is also boring. She thinks it's more interesting to play with Zhou Chen.
After lying down for a while, she sat up again, picked up the books on the desk, and read them seriously. These were the books about international trade recommended to her by Zhou Chen. Since no one was playing with her, she could only study.
Banxia yard.
Tong Xiaoqi saw Chen Yuzhou sending the debt collectors away with a smile on his face, and said worriedly: "They come to collect debts like this every day. This can't go on. My fleet can't get any good work now, and I can't make much money. I can't give much subsidy to the yard."
Chen Yuzhou said very calmly: "It's okay. It's just the New Year. These people are just thinking about whether there is a date or not. Isn't it like this for engineering projects? They urge them, and we delay ours. As long as the fat man brings the scrap steel back, it's not a big deal."
"But you are like this all day, can you hold on?" Tong Xiaoqi asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I can hold on."
Chen Yuzhou patted his chest. Because there was no waste oil contaminating the mudflats, he didn't have that huge psychological burden, and he didn't go to the water to clean up the pollution in the winter, so his health was still good. Although he was a little weak, it was not a big problem.
"When will the boss come back? It's almost the New Year. If he doesn't come back, it will be difficult to deal with these guys. And I heard that the people from the fishing village have come a few times. Are they looking for work?"
"Yes, didn't we promise them when we signed the contract that we would recruit people from their village if there was work in the yard? But now it's still under construction, and there are only construction teams. Where can we get work for them? The village chief was unhappy and came to urge for rent, saying that we promised to pay five years at a time, but we only paid one year. They are crazy about money. Don't worry about them."
Chen Yuzhou didn't care at all. In his opinion, these were not a big deal.
"But you're right. It's almost the New Year, and Fatty hasn't come back yet. But you don't have to worry. Zhou Chen has also gone to the north to find Fatty. With him here, Fatty should be fine."
"What? When did Zhou Chen go to the north? How come I didn't know?" Tong Xiaoqi was shocked. He really didn't know about this.
Chen Yuzhou smiled and said, "He has been gone for a few days. He came to find me before he left. Apart from anything else, Zhou Chen really cares about Fatty. He knew that Fatty was in trouble, so he went to find Fatty. Apart from anything else, just this kind of affection and righteousness, and the posture of going to find Fatty at all costs, I really think highly of him and Fatty."
Tong Xiaoqi was silent. He actually had thoughts about Xu Banxia, but Xu Banxia had suppressed them. But even so, he still felt depressed when he saw Zhou Chen approaching Xu Banxia.
Chen Yuzhou suddenly approached Tong Xiaoqi and said in a low voice, "There is one more thing you don't know. Before Zhou Chen left, he was worried that there might be problems on our side, so he quietly left me a reserve of one million yuan. That's why I'm not worried about the expenses at all."
"Ah? There's this? That guy just gave it to you?"
"Yes, that's why I said he cared about Fatty. He was worried about Fatty, so he went to the north to find Fatty. He was also worried about the yard, so he left the money."
Chen Yuzhou said with emotion: "Really, apart from anything else, Zhou Chen is a reliable person and really cares about Fatty. The reason why I didn't use the money he gave was mainly for Fatty. Fatty said that she didn't want to have any financial involvement with him. I understand what she meant. She said that because she cares about him."
"So you have money in your hand, so you're not panicking? You're so good, Xiao Chen, you didn't even tell me such an important thing, making me worry about you in vain." Tong Xiaoqi glared at Chen Yuzhou with great dissatisfaction.
Chen Yuzhou chuckled and said, "You didn't ask me either. I was thinking that unless it was absolutely necessary, we shouldn't touch the money, so as not to make it difficult for Fatty. Compared with the matter of the yard, I hope Fatty can have a good home."
Tong Xiaoqi snorted, "Are you so sure that guy has a good home?"
Chen Yuzhou said with certainty, "I won't make a mistake."
…………
After staying in Moscow for a few more days, it was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month. Xu Banxia saw that the Chinese New Year was coming, so she started packing and prepared to go back to China with Zhou Chen to celebrate the New Year.
While packing, she said to Zhou Chen, "Let's buy tickets tomorrow and try to get home before New Year's Eve. Didn't you say that you wouldn't go back to Luzhou for the New Year? Then just go to my house, we, Xiao Chen and Tong Xiaoqi, we will celebrate the New Year together."
Zhou Chen looked at Xu Banxia holding one bag after another, many of which were gifts for everyone.
"You bought so many things, aren't you afraid of trouble?"
"I finally came here, but I didn't make any money. Can't I bring some things back? Besides, you're still here to help me, hehe."
After playing with Zhou Chen for a few days, she has gradually let go of her worries. She was originally worried that this thing would not work out and she would go bankrupt after returning, but Zhou Chen's help made her a "windfall". If she makes good use of it, she will not go bankrupt, but also have the opportunity to continue.
Under various factors, she can only let go of the depression in her heart and start to think about the future.
After Xu Banxia packed up, Zhou Chen took Xu Banxia out shopping again.
"We have been here several times. There is nothing to visit."
"After returning to China, we may not come again. Before leaving, we will visit the places we have been to before. After all, this trip to a foreign country is also the beginning of our being together. Just leave it as a souvenir."
Hearing Zhou Chen say this, Xu Banxia couldn't help but smile. Yes, although she didn't achieve her wish this time, she was not without gains.
"You're right. This is also a witness to our love. Let's go. We can clean up the rest when we come back."
Xu Banxia took Zhou Chen's arm and smiled sweetly at him. Zhou Chen smiled back, and then they walked out the door hand in hand.
