1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 231 Mortgage Yongxing Company to me

In fact, these industries were taken by Yongxing Company from other Chinese businessmen, and were later managed by Zhang Wanlin and Lu Yusheng.

Huo Tianhong didn't spend a penny on it.

It's not impossible to sell it in a package for 200 million.

But there is only 200 million, and the payment to Edward is still 170 million short, not to mention the various hidden expenses that may be incurred in the process.

Originally buying only 300 yuan worth of goods, he didn't have to worry about funding at all.

However, in order to get in touch with the Kong family, Huo Tianhong gritted his teeth and made a deal with Song Ziwen. The other 700 million yuan was used as incense money for the principal's brother-in-law!

You can’t just say no, it’s gone.

"Second Young Master, the price of 200 million is a bit too low." Huo Tianhong said bravely.

As soon as Ye Luo saw his expression, he knew exactly what Huo Tianhong was thinking.

He was short of money. He thought 200 million was too little, but he couldn't give up the 200 million.

"I can only offer up to 26 million for these 200 companies, and that's because of my friendship with you, Boss Huo." Ye Luo shook his head and did not let go, but gave Huo Tianhong another choice, "If Huo Tianhong The boss is really short of money, so I have a good way to help you."

"Second Young Master, please tell me." Huo Tianhong's eyes were glaring. He didn't shy away from the fact that he was short of money anyway, and wanted to see what Ye Luo could do to solve it.

"Borrow me money."

"The second young master is joking." It's not like Huo Tianhong has never thought of similar methods, but after all, he is the top leader of Yongxing Company and a well-known tycoon in Shanghai. If he opens his mouth to borrow money from Ye Luo and others who are also tycoons, the matter will be leaked. That means losing his wife and losing his troops.

He didn't want to borrow money because he wanted to keep the matter secret.

He does not believe in the character of other tycoons, nor does he believe in the integrity of Chinese banks, unless they are foreign banks.

However, both Citigroup and HSBC have extremely high requirements and restrictions on large loans, especially for rogue tycoons like Huo Tianhong, and warlords similar to them who have committed embarrassing acts of not repaying loans, which makes these two major foreign banks Chinese lending is particularly stringent.

"I know, Boss Huo, you don't want to ask me for a loan, but is it okay to ask a bank run by foreigners?" Ye Luo glanced at him, and sure enough, Huo Tianhong's face changed slightly, "Citigroup and HSBC have great restrictions on Chinese businessmen. I think Boss Huo will definitely not be satisfied with a loan of hundreds of thousands of dollars."

"That's natural. I, Huo Tianhong, want to borrow money, at least one million yuan to start." Huo Tianhong nodded, "Does the second young master have other banks? As far as I know, Citigroup and HSBC are the most guaranteed foreign banks. Other foreign banks The banks I opened were good and bad sometimes, and their reputation was not very good."

"Because of this, I plan to open a joint venture bank of Ye's with the French Consul General Verdy. The headquarters will be set up in the French Concession. Fan Juli, the wife of the Consul General, will serve as the president of the bank. We, Ye's, will only name and invest in the bank." Ye Luo saw the opportunity. When he arrived, he threw out the joint venture bank he had talked about with Verdi, "To be precise, this bank is under the jurisdiction of the French Consulate and has little to do with Yeluo. The National Government and the Chinese Banking Industry can't control it. Isn't it with Huo Huo?" It’s what the boss wants.”

"You are worried that the credibility of other foreign banks is not as good as that of Citigroup and HSBC. One of these two banks is backed by the United States and the other is the United Kingdom. Now my Ye's joint venture bank is backed by French people. They are exactly the same." Ye Luo saw that he was moved and continued to increase his firepower. "Especially in terms of confidentiality, I can promise that we will definitely be the first in Shanghai!"

"Second Young Master, I didn't expect that you would still have the energy to get involved in the banking industry. Amazing, amazing!" Huo Tianhong narrowed his eyes. Ye Luo's business ability far exceeded his imagination.Looking back now, this step after step seems to be leading you into a trap, making it impossible for him to break free from Ye's shackles.

Fortunately, Ye Luo didn't know the flow of funds. If he were to learn about this cigarette business, Huo Tianhong would not dare to think about the subsequent consequences.

"Boss Huo is overly praised. This joint venture bank will be launched together with other products of the Sino-French Pharmacy in the middle of the month. At that time, declarations and news newspapers will rush to report on it. Boss Huo can rest assured." Ye Luo looked at him with a smile, "As for this If you want to do large-scale business, you can ask President Fan to come up with a contract and negotiate with you first. When the agreement is signed, I will transfer the money to you, which is very convenient."

"Oh? What the second young master means is that I only need to talk to the Consul General's wife and you won't come forward?" Huo Tianhong did not expect that Ye Luozhen would hide behind the scenes and ignore the loan business at all.

Ye Luo nodded: "I only contribute the money, and the operation and management are handled by the Consulate General, so that customers can rest assured."

"Okay! If the loan can be negotiated, it would be fine to sell these 26 companies to the second young master for 200 million." Huo Tianhong nodded and laughed.

"Without further delay, I can call the Consulate General immediately, and Boss Huo can go directly to the Consul General's wife." Ye Luo knew he was in a hurry, so he smiled and said, "If the deal is settled in the afternoon, I can release the loan in the evening. "

"The amount I want is not small. Does the second young master have sufficient funds?" Huo Tianhong asked tentatively.

Ye Luo's eyes flashed, and he replied with a smile: "There is no quantity that I, Ye Luo, cannot provide."

"Okay!" At this point, Huo Tianhong didn't ask any more questions, stood up, put on his felt hat, and left directly.

Ye Luo asked his servant to send him out, and then looked at Xiao Aqiao. The two smiled at each other, and it was obvious what they were thinking.

"Baby, call Fan Juli immediately. You two are familiar with each other. Do you know what to do?" Ye Luo put his arms around little Aqiao's slender waist, took a sweet sip on her neck, and asked with a smile.

Xiao Ah Qiao Ni nodded in his arms: "I know, I will definitely set a trap for Huo Tianhong that he can't escape from, so that he loses all his money this time."

"Haha, this is not enough." Ye Luo said, kissing her red lips gently, looking into Xiao Aqiao's eyes and said calmly, "Huo Tianhong is short of money, but he is very cautious. He wants to borrow 100 million, You just find a way to give him 150 million. If he wants 300 million, you find a way to give him 400 million! I will give him as much as he wants. But this contract requires him to sign it with Fan Juli and Verdi. In addition, there is a guarantee. , and asked him to mortgage Yongxing Company to me. If he cannot pay back the money on time, his Yongxing will be mine!"

"Hiss—" Little Aqiao's expression changed, and she finally understood Ye Luo's intention.

This is not just about taking down the three gangster tycoons, he is trying to get rid of the trouble and kill the donkey once and for all!

What Ye Luo wants is the lives of three people!
"Find out the batch of goods they hid, plus Lu Yusheng's Jiang'an ship. These are the property of Yongxing Company. They ransacked the house. Let's see what they get back to me?"

Ye Luo's eyes gradually turned cold.

After learning that the Jiang Anlun incident was closely related to Yongxing Company, he had no intention of letting the three of them go.

The opium business has high risks and high profits. Since they dare to do this, Ye Luo dares to let them know what it means for the mantis to catch the cicada and the oriole behind.
