Chapter 255: 37 Tons of Tungsten
“Mr. David, when I bought it four years ago, it was because of the financial crisis and it was a financial measure.
The price I'm talking about now is just based on the market price, and I've already sold it at a 95% discount, so I've already lost a lot of money." Billy shook his head and said.
"In this case, there is no point in talking here. Tomorrow I will ask a professional team of accountants and lawyers to come and do the calculations.
If your farm does not have any debts or legal disputes and the price can be negotiated appropriately, I will purchase Billy Farm.
Of course, I also hope Mr. Billy can offer a better deal. I heard that your investment has gone wrong and you need additional funds urgently. If your price is right, I can get the funds to your account within three days." Hou Xiaoge tempted.
"Okay, I'll consider it carefully. Of course, thank you Mr. David for your recognition of Billy's farm." Billy put a smile on his face again. After all, nothing can make people as happy as instant cash.
"Mr. Billy, if the ship engineer I hired inspects the yacht this afternoon and finds it qualified, I hope we can trade it as soon as possible.
If you are afraid of trouble, I will ask a lawyer to come over this afternoon. Of course, I can also pay you a part of the deposit today, and then sign the contract after the lawyer comes over tomorrow." Hou Xiaoge suggested.
“OK, it’s just a yacht worth tens of thousands of dollars. I still believe in the financial strength of the new owner of Kent Farm.
Mr. David, just use this note, and you don't need to pay the deposit. Let's drive the yacht away! I hope you can cherish it as much as you love your car." Billy shrugged and stretched out his right hand.
"Thank you for your trust, Mr. Billy." Hou Xiaoge also stretched out his right hand.
It's good to have money. People will easily trust you with a huge sum of tens of thousands of dollars, which makes Hou Xiaoge very happy.
"Royce, thank you and your friend very much. Here is two hundred US dollars as your commission." After returning to Anxin Farm, Hou Xiaoge took out two hundred US dollars and handed it to Royce who introduced them.
"Mr. David, although I also like the green Franklin, I cannot accept this money. These are what I should do.
As for my friend, this needs a reward, I'll take a hundred dollars!" Rouse took the money with a smile, took out a hundred and put it in his pocket, and handed the other hundred back.
"OK!"
“Ross, you are an excellent employee. When I was inspecting the farm today, I heard from other cowboys that you were going to have a party to celebrate the pay raise.
In this way, I allow you to slaughter a useless bull as a party meal, as a gift from me as your boss." Hou Xiaoge nodded and said.
"Thank you, generous boss." Ross smiled brightly.
Although a cow only costs thirty or forty dollars, and one hundred dollars can buy two and a half cows, the beef given by the farm owner is a kind of recognition and kindness.
"Contact the nearby ship engineer later and go to Billy's Farm to inspect the yacht. If there is no problem, drive the yacht to our dock." Hou Xiaoge ordered.
"Okay, boss. I happen to know the owner of a nearby shipyard. I'll ask him to come over in person." Ross nodded.
“That’s the best, you can also explain to him that we need to order the fishing boat from his shipyard, so he will be more attentive.
Of course, the thing about ordering a fishing boat is also true, at least that's what I planned.
Later, I will use my connections to acquire Billy Farm and the Sweetheart Farm next door, making Kent Farm the largest farm in this area.
At that time, Kent Farm will own more than tens of thousands of acres of land and more than ten nautical miles of coastline.
And you, the cowboy Rolls, whom I am very optimistic about, will be the person in charge of this large farm." Hou Xiaoge kept painting a rosy picture for the excited Rolls.
"Boss, Ross must be your most loyal employee." Ross assured him, staring at the man's red face, which was flushed with excitement.
“Very good, I hope that with our joint efforts, Kent Farm will become a famous large farm around Los Angeles.
But I also have a worry now, I wonder if you, Laws, can help me get rid of this worry? "After drawing the pie, Hou Xiaoge looked at Laws and said with a smile.
"Boss, Royce is happy to serve you."
"Well! My trouble is that I don't want to see racial discrimination on my farm.
If you have a conflict with the Chinese in the future, I hope I can deal with it after I come back, OK? "Now there are only two of them, Hou Xiaoge decided to give the other party another reminder.
"Got it, boss. If any cowboy engages in racial discrimination, I, Rolls, will not allow him to work on the Kent farm."
"very good."
In the afternoon, Rolls invited the owner of a nearby small shipyard to come and check the yacht in person, and everything was fine.
Because the shipyard has now taken on a lot of orders for US military ships, it will not be able to accept orders until the end of the year at the earliest.
So Hou Xiaoge and his boss agreed to build fishing boats for Kent Farm as soon as the US Navy order was completed.
In the evening, Hou Xiaoge did not let the guards follow him, and drove the yacht alone to scout the nearby waters.
There are several small islands and reefs within twelve nautical miles of the farm. According to US law, these islands within twelve miles actually belong to Kent Farm.
Hou Xiaoge went to the island to check it out and found that most of them were of low value and could only be called coral reefs. Only one of them was relatively large and very valuable.
The island is gourd-shaped, two kilometers long and eight hundred meters wide, with a total area of about two square kilometers.
The island is covered with dense forests, with the highest altitude reaching 100 meters. It is close to the coastline and will be a good place for tourism in the future.
"Yes, this small island is a hidden transfer point. Some things can be temporarily stored here, or traded here.
When peace comes, this island is close to Los Angeles and can be turned into a yacht hotel. Hou Xiaoge decided to buy the island.
After walking around, Hou Xiaoge took out thirty-seven tons of purified tungsten metal from the space.
Except for a small portion of these tungsten that Hou Xiaoge collected in Chongqing City, most of them were purchased at Guangzhou Bay Terminal.
Jiangxi Province and Guangdong Province produce tungsten, and Guangzhou Bay is the best seaport for Jiangxi Province and Guangdong Province.
Before the Japanese occupied this place, many black traders from Guangdong and Jiangxi provinces were active here, smuggling tungsten to sell to the Japanese.
After the Japanese occupied the two places, it goes without saying that Guangzhou Bay became the best transit point.
Countless supplies from nearby provinces were concentrated in Guangzhou Bay and transported back to the Japanese invaders' hometown. Tungsten was one of the strategic materials, and warships were cruising in the harbor all year round.
But the Japanese had planned everything, but they didn't expect Hou Xiaoge, this cheater, to wipe them out in one fell swoop.
Among them, nearly 40 tons of crude tungsten were confiscated at the Guangzhou Bay Port. After Hou Xiaoge smelted it in the space, there were still 37 tons left, including the original ones.
This 200-ton yacht, including its rooms and cabins, can transport a maximum of 120 tons of cargo at a time, and can easily transport 37 tons of tungsten.
In addition to tungsten, Hou Xiaoge also placed 25 tons of pig bristles and 500 barrels of tung oil with a total weight of 12.5 tons.
The yacht was packed to the brim, covered with a tarpaulin, and pulled into the dock.
