Gold!
Who doesn’t like it.
Facing banknotes, Li Yian still has some resistance, but facing gold!
I really can’t refuse.
But this business is indeed dangerous. Once the allies learn about it, there is no telling what kind of trouble it will cause.
But... Li Yian is really not worried.
It is nothing more than installing it in space and carrying the goods with human flesh. Compared with other goods, these 17,000 US dollars per ton of tungsten sand are truly high-value products.
And tungsten sand is very heavy!
“Is there really ten times the profit?”
Li Yian couldn't help but have a little doubt, but just two days later, a telegram from Uncle Guo dispelled his doubts.
Although the Allies have raised the price of tungsten, they can still obtain cheap tungsten sand from China. In fact, the price of tungsten in London is not the international standard price. But the high prices are limited to Europe, and the prices in other regions are not high. Compared with before the war, they have only increased several times.
Why don’t other countries ship tungsten sand to Europe?
Because it can’t be shipped!
Thanks to the German submarines.
Thinking about it in his mind, Li Yian directly sent a telegram to Uncle Guo. The content of the telegram was very simple, which was to discuss a plan to make a fortune and purchase tungsten sand at a high price of US$2,000 per ton. Of course, Uncle Guo would be responsible for the transportation.
Faced with a premium of four to five hundred US dollars, no one could resist it. After only one day, I received a call back from Uncle Guo - ready to pay.
It must be said that when their own interests are involved, the efficiency of corrupt officials far exceeds people's imagination.
While Uncle Guo and his domestic subordinates were preparing tungsten sand, Li Yian arrived in Italy again.
This time, he came directly to Taranto, to Fiat's steel company.
"Li, this steel plant is yours!"
Pointing at this steel company with a production capacity of millions of tons, Mickey said proudly.
“It only cost 1 million US dollars! You don’t know that at the beginning, Fiat was still stuck on the price, but now? The Allied forces landed in Normandy and occupied it again Rome, they will liberate the north soon. Fiat contacted me a week ago and offered me $1 million! They considered it for a whole week but finally agreed!
After that, Mickey stretched out his hands, spun his body excitedly, and shouted.
“He is yours now!”
This is my factory!
The corners of Li Yian's lips raised, a smile on his face.
What is steel?
Steel is the mother of industry. For any country that wants to develop industry, it must develop the steel industry.
With steel, there are machines, ships, planes and cannons.
Without steel, so-called industrialization is simply a luxury.
The steel plant in front of us is enough to bring Borneo to the door of industrialization.
"Mickey, I'm curious, since there are agents buying companies everywhere here, why no one is interested in this factory."
In an empty place, it's already Li Yian asked curiously in the steel company's factory where production had been suspended for several months.
“It’s very simple, Li, do you know what is the least valuable thing after the war?”
Mickey, who had made hundreds of thousands of dollars, said proudly.
"Steel! The world war led to a sharp increase in steel production in various countries. After the war, there will inevitably be a large surplus. The price of steel will plummet like after the end of the last war. Steel companies will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Many wartime Expanding small and medium-sized steel companies will inevitably fall into bankruptcy, just like the end of the last European War. 30% of small and medium-sized steel companies in the United States went bankrupt within two years after the end of the war, and almost half of small steel companies in Europe went bankrupt. In this case, who would buy a steel company that is destined to go bankrupt? "
Li Yian was taken aback by Mickey's words and asked. "In that case, does that mean I spent a million to buy a pile of scrap metal?"
"But that was the last war, sir!"
Mickey put away the smile on his face, pointed at the buildings destroyed in the bombing in the distance, and said.
“In the last war, no cities were destroyed, but in this war, how many cities were destroyed? Hamburg in Germany was razed to the ground. In the following days, as the Allied counterattack began, Cities will be razed to the ground, like the Russians' Stalingrad, Entire cities will be destroyed in artillery fire. Post-war reconstruction requires a large amount of steel. Even if it is not as good as the wartime demand, the steel industry is still profitable, but few people notice this. "
After Mickey pointed out this point proudly, he added.
"So no one is interested in the steel company, but, Li, you have to believe me, investing in the steel plant will definitely be profitable, and the profits will be very generous..."
How could Li Yian not know the profit?
Post-war Europe not only completed reconstruction in just ten years, but also began large-scale infrastructure construction that lasted for twenty years. Large-scale infrastructure requires a large amount of steel. In Europe in the 1950s and 1960s, investing in steel companies would undoubtedly have Very high rate of return.
However, Li Yian didn't care about this at all. All he needed was the equipment in this factory, and he needed to dismantle the equipment here to Borneo.
Despite this, Mickey's judgment on the post-war steel market still made Li Yian couldn't help but take a high look at this guy.
"Maybe, but what I need is not this factory, but the machines here..."
Pointing to the empty factory, Li Yian said it directly. His purpose.
"After the war is over, I will ship all the machines to Asia, and I will rebuild a steel company there, not just a steel company, but also other factories..."
said Come on, Li Yian looked at Mickey and said.
"How's it going? Are you interested?"
"What?"
Mickey couldn't help but be stunned and looked at him in surprise.
"What's your interest?"
"It's the factory."
Looking at Mickey, who didn't seem to understand yet, Li Yian said directly.
“I need to buy more factories, and if possible, even the entire Fiat company,”
“What? Buy the entire Fiat company?”
Mickey couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise and said.
"Oh my god, do you know how much money this costs? It may cost hundreds of millions of dollars."
"It's just a small amount of money..."
The corner of Li Yian's mouth Said softly and casually.
“The important thing is industry.”
There is only industry!
Only industry can make your company become the future king. Li Yian, with his arms folded, looked at this factory like this...
