Chapter 24 The two Japs are even more hateful (first update, please collect and recommend)
Back in the room, after washing up, Li Yian went to bed. The spring bed was very soft and comfortable, which made him happy. The whole person almost fell into it. Relaxing his nerves and brain, he obeyed his brain's thoughts and soon fell asleep.
When he woke up again, the bright sunshine of the Caribbean Sea poured into the room through the window. Looking at the beautiful sea view outside the window, Li Yi'an raised his eyebrows lightly and said to himself.
"Okay, let's see what happens today."
More than an hour later, in the open-air cafe of the hotel, Li Yian looked at Li Dijun and Song Chengjun in front of him and remained silent. .
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Song Chengjun said directly.
"Mr. Li, I know this matter must be very difficult for you, but now the Americans want to take advantage of their monopoly on shipping and force Chinese businessmen like me to sell sugar to them at a low price. If we compromise , then we, the Chinese merchants, will definitely let them be their prey in the future, so for the benefit of hundreds of thousands of compatriots, we ask Mr. Li to lend a helping hand."
At this point, Song Chengjun said solemnly.
“The Americans asked us to sell sugar to them at a low price of 15 cents per kilogram. If Mr. Li is willing to buy it, Mr. Yang is willing to let Mr. Li pay 10...13 cents per kilogram. No matter how much you buy, as long as my Chinese businessman has one kilogram, he will sell it to Mr. Li at this price!”
Thirteen cents per kilogram!
That’s about 6 cents per pound!
According to the official price, it is almost ten times the profit. If it is the black market price, it is nearly twenty times the profit!
What did Boss Ma say?
Forgot.
But this is twenty times the profit!
Moreover, this will still be a stable market in the future. Although the market of six billion US dollars a year will definitely not be enough for itself, if it can eat a few tenths of it, then it will still be a full plate!
Despite this, Li Yian still didn't speak. He just picked up the cup, took a sip of coffee and looked at the other person.
"Good nephew..."
Opening his mouth, Li Dijun did not continue. After all, they just met for the first time and had no friendship. After thinking for a while, he said.
“These are all to help our compatriots. If we are of compatriot blood, we will naturally help if we can.”
"Uncle Shi."
Li Yian smiled.
"My nephew knows it well."
Turns his gaze to Song Chengjun, Li Yian said directly:
"Why do Americans buy yours for 15 cents a kilogram? You won’t sell it, but you are willing to sell it to me for thirteen cents?”
"Mr. Li, I promise you and I, our compatriots, why let outsiders take advantage? You won't believe it. In fact, you can guess it. The reason why I don't want to take advantage of Americans is, in the final analysis, for a profit. If I wait If Americans are allowed to bully like this, then in the next ten or twenty years, There will definitely be no future for Chinese businessmen like us in Cuba. Rather than being bullied by American businessmen, I would rather sell sugar to Mr. Li at a low price. As long as we survive this difficulty, Chinese businessmen like us can stand firm in the sugar industry. Only in this way can we have a bright future. Mr. Li, in the final analysis, it is for the future of our Chinese businessmen. , our ancestors came here as slave laborers. In the past hundred years, it has not been easy to go from slave laborers to small traders to now. If we miss this opportunity, we Chinese businessmen will still be just small traders. Therefore, for the future of Chinese businessmen, , let alone thirteen cents a pound, even ten cents, I am willing, even if it is a loss. , we will continue to lose money. What Yang did was not for anything else, but for the future of our Chinese businessmen to have a place in the sugar industry!"
After the decisive words, Song Chengjun let out another long sigh, and he didn't know. Is he feeling helpless for himself or for the future of Chinese businessmen?
Looking at the man in front of him, at this moment, Li Yian seemed to understand why Chinese businessmen were able to rise in Nanyang in that era, from French South-Central to Malay, to Dutch East Indies, and then to In the Philippines, whenever given the opportunity, Chinese businessmen will surely rise. It is not just one person who becomes the richest man in the country, but the rise of the entire ethnic group.
What do they rely on?
It is this ambition deep in their hearts that they are unwilling to be inferior to others. They will always seize every opportunity to develop themselves. And now is their chance to improve themselves. Helping them is also helping yourself!
At this moment, Li Yian seemed to understand everything, and his eyes changed when he looked at Song Chengjun, and he nodded slightly.
"Mr. Song, in this case, why should I buy it at 13 cents per kilogram..."
Before he finished speaking, Song Chengjun's face suddenly changed, and Li Dijun's His face also became a little ugly, and just at this moment, there was a shout from the side.
"Dad, I told you that such a person is definitely unreliable!"
Before he finished speaking, someone... uh, a pair of long legs fell into his eyes. He looked up. But he saw a young woman wearing a long skirt walking from the next table, staring at him with a pair of eyes full of anger.
"The foreign devils are hateful, and the two Japanese devils are even more hateful. Don't you just want to take advantage of the foreign devils when they are oppressing us!"
Uh... Look at the girl appearing out of nowhere, Li Yian I didn’t know what to say for a moment, but the girl in front of me could tell that she was of mixed race. Her appearance looked a bit familiar. It might be a man’s habit. When he saw a beautiful woman, he felt like he had seen her before, but it seemed like she was in a movie. Saw it.
But she is really tall!
You must be above 175 at least!
Looking at the angry girl, Li Yian frowned, and when he was about to speak, he heard Song Chengjun say.
"Bing'er! Who asked you to interrupt!"
"Dad, I...he..."
The girl pouted with a look of injustice on her face.
“He clearly wants to...”
"Taking advantage of the situation?"
Li Yian smiled.
"In business, taking advantage of the situation is what a businessman should do. Otherwise, how can he be called a businessman?"
The girl's eyes widened instantly and she said in astonishment.
"You, you..."
I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people. They don’t even pretend to be. This is simply shameless.
In contrast, Li Yian seemed very calm, turned his eyes to Song Chengjun, and asked.
"What do you think? Mr. Song."
Song Chengjun barely squeezed out four words.
“Business talks!”
"What Mr. Song said is true, but a gentleman loves money, gets it wisely, and speaks truthfully in business, but..."
Looking at Song Chengjun, Li Yian smiled.
“Some money can be earned, but some money cannot be earned.”
?
Before Song Chengjun, Li Dijun and the girl beside them could react, Li Yian said.
"The current price!"
His words made Song Bing surprised and said:
"What?"
