Hong Kong Giant Owl: Rebirth

Chapter 802 Choices
"General, Mr. Ye and Mr. Qin are here." Du Moke came to Jia Lefu and said to him.

Jia Lefu just put away the knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a clean white napkin, then raised his head to look at Qin Haoran and Ye Bingxuan, and smiled at them.

"General Jia Lefu, hello." Ye Bingxuan stretched out his right hand to Jia Lefu.

Qin Haoran didn't speak, but focused on Ye Bingxuan. After all, the main thing he met with Jia Lefu this time was the arms deal between China and Portugal, and his fight for the right to operate gambling in Macau was probably just a matter of chance in Jia Lefu's eyes. .

So Qin Haoran deliberately stood behind Ye Bingxuan, and after Ye Bingxuan and Jia Lefu greeted each other, he introduced himself in English: "Hello, General Jia Lefu, I am Qin Haoran."

Jia Lefu knew English. After hearing Qin Haoran's words, he nodded slightly to him, and then smiled at Ye Bingxuan and Qin Haoran: "Both of you, please sit down. You haven't had lunch yet, right? Come on, Try our Portuguese food."

Ye Bingxuan and Qin Haoran then sat on the left of Jia Lefu, and that Du Moke immediately asked his servant to bring food.

Jia Lefu invited Ye Bingxuan and Qin Haoran to eat rich Portuguese delicacies, such as sequoia fish with bacon, braised beef sausage, bacalhau fish soup and vegetable soup, etc., all of which are Portuguese specialties.And Jia Lefu, the chef in the castle, is obviously not an ordinary character, and the food he cooks is also delicious.

Of course, neither Qin Haoran nor Ye Bingxuan came here to eat, let alone these Portuguese delicacies, Qin Haoran and Shen Jinghong had already tasted them when they visited Lisbon and surrounding cities.

Qin Mastiff, who was usually the most greedy, stood quietly not far away at this time, indifferent to the food on the long dining table, just like a competent guard.

Jia Lefu was full just now, so he didn't eat any more, and just looked at Ye Bingxuan and Qin Haoran.

Ye Bingxuan just drank some red wine, and said to Jia Lefu with a smile: "General Jia Lefu, as early as in our country, I admired the general's legendary life very much, and today I finally have the opportunity to meet you, General , I am very honored."

He also spoke English, and after Jia Lefu heard it, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Mr. Ye, you are too flattering. In fact, I am far behind Mr. Ye. If Speaking of admiration, my admiration for Mr. Ye is even stronger, and I don't know when I will have the opportunity to meet Mr. Ye."

"There is a chance, there is a chance." Ye Bingxuan said with a smile.

Then Jia Lefu waved his hand with a smile and said, "Okay, Mr. Ye, we don't have to be so polite, let's make a long story short. We have prepared all the weapons your country wants this time. Here is A list, you can see if there is anything wrong."

Dumoke next to him immediately handed a document to Ye Bingxuan. Ye Bingxuan took it over and read it, only to see that the document listed the number of weapons of what type and the corresponding price.

When Ye Bingxuan carefully read the list, his brows slowly frowned. After a long time, he closed the document, raised his head and said to Jia Lefu: "General Jia Lefu, the type and quantity of weapons are correct, but that The price seems to be different from what we originally negotiated."

"The price is [-]% higher than what we talked about before, right?" Jia Lefu said with a smile.

Ye Bingxuan nodded slightly: "That's right, General Jia Lefu, the price we negotiated before is actually very suitable, why did you suddenly raise it by [-]%? Could it be that there is something wrong on our side, and let General Jia Lefu What's not to like?"

Jia Lefu shook his head and said, "No, no, Mr. Ye, don't misunderstand, it's not your fault, let alone our problem, but the purchase price of these weapons has increased."

Ye Bingxuan and Qin Haoran glanced at each other. They both knew that only a small part of the arms that Portugal sold to China this time was actually produced by Portugal itself, and most of them were imported from outside, including the United States, France, Britain, etc. .

"I am afraid that the Western countries headed by the United States have reduced their arms exports." Qin Haoran suddenly said: "Although the Cuban missile crisis has passed not long ago, the arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union will reach its peak in the short term. The big camps are all shrinking their arms exports, which has led to an increase in the price of exported weapons. General Jia Lefu, am I right?"

Jia Lefu looked at Qin Haoran in surprise, obviously he didn't expect Qin Haoran to have such insight.

Ye Bingxuan also showed a dazed look. In fact, the Cuban Missile Crisis that has just passed has indeed made the whole world breathe a sigh of relief.Because of this crisis, human beings all over the world are extremely close to a nuclear war.The countries belonging to the two camps of socialism and capitalism are very frightened, because once this nuclear war occurs, it will completely exceed the scope of previous war history, and will cause devastating consequences.

Of course, Qin Haoran is also aware of this crisis, but he is much calmer than others, because he knows that the United States and the Soviet Union, the two big countries standing in front of the button of the nuclear bomb launcher, will eventually give up after a long time.Qin Haoran didn't even think about seeking any benefits in this crisis, because the vortex was too big and too dangerous, and any slight encounter would be fatal.

However, Qin Haoran also understands that after the missile crisis, the domestic research and development of "two bombs and one satellite" has become even tighter.Even Ye Bingxuan's purchase of arms in Portugal this time and returning to China for research and development is the result of an increased sense of crisis in the country.Because in this Cuban missile crisis, many people understand that the international situation is often dominated by big powers, and a small country like Cuba can only be reduced to a pawn in the game of big powers.

The country that just broke up with the Soviet Union just now naturally does not want to become such a pawn, so having its own national defense force has become an urgent goal to achieve.

It is not that Ye Bingxuan is unaware of this situation, but he did not expect that the United States and other Western countries would suddenly increase the price of export weapons, which caught him off guard in this deal with Portugal.

Speaking of it now, it's really not that Jia Lefu deliberately made things difficult for Ye Bingxuan. After all, this is driven by the international situation. Of course, they will not do business at a loss. "Customer" to bear.

"General Jia Lefu, can you lower the price a little bit more, because we really don't have much money, and it was not easy to raise it before, but now it's suddenly [-]% higher, we really can't afford it. "Ye Bingxuan said with a serious face.

On the one hand, it is indeed not easy to prepare domestic funds for this transaction, after all, the domestic situation is not very good.On the other hand, although Portugal has a reasonable reason for raising the price by [-]%, many people in the country will not pay attention to this, and all they want is the result.

If Ye Bingxuan can't complete this transaction, it will be the result of failure, and those who have been eyeing the Ye family and only waiting for the situation of the Ye family to join together will take immediate action.

Ye Bingxuan came this time with the responsibility of the rise and fall of the Ye family, if he really fails and goes back, the consequences will be too serious.

After hearing Ye Bingxuan's words, Jia Lefu smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry Mr. Ye, we can't do business at a loss, and the problem of funds is only your problem and has nothing to do with us, although I admire Mr. Ye But business is business, sir, and all I can say is sorry."

Ye Bingxuan's face immediately became heavy, and when Qin Haoran saw him, he secretly touched Ye Bingxuan with his foot under the table.Ye Bingxuan was startled, and immediately looked at Qin Haoran, and saw the wink Qin Haoran gave him.

What Qin Haoran meant was to help Ye Bingxuan take over [-]% of the extra funds.

Ye Bingxuan stretched out his thumb, index finger and middle finger calmly, and told Qin Haoran that their transaction volume with Portugal reached 8000 million. Although Ye Bingxuan did not speak, Qin Haoran also knew that Ye Bingxuan was talking about Hong Kong dollars.

And Qin Haoran was secretly surprised when he saw the number Ye Bingxuan told him. He didn't expect that the country would pay such a heavy cost, and he didn't hesitate to spend 8000 million Hong Kong dollars to buy arms from Portugal.

In fact, Portugal is only equivalent to a second-hand dealer, who can make a huge difference by changing hands.But the vigor in the country is enough to surprise Qin Haoran, because the current situation in the country is really serious.

It can also be seen from this that the Cuban missile crisis has stimulated the country much more than Qin Haoran imagined.

And 8000% of the 3000 million Hong Kong dollars is [-] two million Hong Kong dollars.

Although Qin Haoran's net worth has skyrocketed in the past two years, the total assets in his hands have exceeded [-] million, especially the "No. [-] heroin" produced by "Tianlang Chemical" has brought Qin Haoran a veritable huge profit.

But Qin Haoran still has a lot of investment projects, and these investment projects require a lot of funds. Therefore, the funds that Qin Haoran can really mobilize at this time are only about 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

These funds also included the money that Qin Haoran needed to fight for the right to operate the gambling in Macau. If it was used to help Ye Bingxuan, Qin Haoran would be forced to give up the strategy for the right to operate the gambling in Macau.

Qin Haoran has set his sights on Macau's gambling industry very early on, and this time the Fu family's contract expires and the fight with He Hongsen is Qin Haoran's best chance, Qin Haoran has a great chance to benefit from it , and finally won the gambling management right, and if this opportunity is missed, Ho Hongsen will become the "king of gambling" in Macau just like in the original history.
