Chapter 312： : The acquisition carnival season is here

"Hadi Empire 1945 New ( to find the latest chapter!

Huo Qingdong had previously laid down hundreds of people on the Okinawa Islands, and collected all the supplies. This time he set off for shipment.

When they were about to arrive at the small island of Okinawa, they happened to encounter a patrol ship.

"Beep~!"

The patrol ship sounded its whistle to greet the cargo ship flying the American flag.

"Dududu~!"

The cargo ship returned a few whistle.

I thought it would pass by, but I didn't expect that the patrol ship turned a turn and followed the cargo ship until it reached the island where Huo Qingdong and the others gathered supplies.

"What is this?" Huo Qingdong was puzzled.

As soon as the ship stopped, the opposite party shouted to let Huo Qingdong go to the other ship, and Huo Qingdong boarded the warship with doubts.

Still the captain I met last time.

He saw Huo Qingdong, smiled and invited him to his captain's room, and poured Huo Qingdong a cup of coffee. The captain smiled and said, "Introduce myself, my name is Yiwen."

"I don't know what Captain Yiwen is looking for?" Huo Qingdong asked.

"Aren't you collecting supplies? We plan to do business with you. I don't know if you are interested." Yi Wen said.

"Oh ~ what business?" Huo Qingdong asked in surprise.

"We have a batch of cargo ships in our hands, which can be sold to you cheaply. Are you interested?" Captain Yiwen asked.

"What kind of cargo ship?"

"Japanese cargo ships, large and small, were all confiscated by us. When we attacked Okinawa, those **** used these cargo ships to transport supplies. After the war, they were all detained by us. There were about 20 or 30 ships, and some were usable. Some have been scrapped, all piled up in the steamship cemetery." Yiwen said.

Huo Qingdong was surprised.

"Selling these supplies will not cause problems, right, where is your boss?" Huo Qingdong asked.

Ivan laughed, and then lowered his voice: "You tell me, after I saw you last time, I returned to the base and my boss. The commander of the base said this. When he knew it, he said that we were detained. Those Japanese ships can only be left rusty, it is better to sell scrap iron."

"Later, we discussed that those ships were not in the military sequence. They belonged to post-war seizures. No one would care about them. When I turned back, they said they were parked in the bay. The typhoon came and blew all the ships into the sea. No one would care about those things. "

Huo Qingdong was shocked in his heart. They were right. No one cared about those Japanese boats. The typhoon was blown into the sea. This reason was very reasonable.

Now the Americans are uncles, and the Japanese dare not open their mouths to ask for things from them. They only need to write a reason to fool the two fools on the file of the seized materials.

Why are you two fools.

Because the big idiot can't fool it.

9 goats at 6 million US dollars, the reason is that the important action to boost the cashmere industry in Afghanistan, the end may be stewed.

What a perfect reason.

look.

Still no one will hold him accountable.

"What model are those boats?" Huo Qingdong asked.

"I can't tell, I'll take you to see it." Captain Ivan said.

Huo Qingdong agreed and asked them to give their own ship a message, let them work on the ship, and go out with the fleet.

Two hours later, the patrol ship came to a relatively remote bay in Okinawa. The surrounding area was uninhabited. It was a ship cemetery used by the US military to stack these cargo ships.

The entire bay is full of boats.

Many of the hulls were rusty, and it seemed that they hadn't moved for a long time.

These ships are of different types and sizes, and they are very complicated. The small ones are estimated to be about 1,000 tons, and the large ones are about seven to eight thousand tons, which are almost the same as the free shipping.

And there are cargo ships and troop carriers,

"What price do you want to sell?" Huo Qingdong asked tentatively.

"According to weight, 5 dollars a ton." Yiwen said.

Huo Qingdong's heart burst.

The price of scrap iron is US$30 a ton.

It was mainly these boats. Although they looked broken, Huo Qingdong knew that some of them were still usable.

Even if it is completely scrapped, at a price of $5 a ton, it is still profitable to pull the scrap iron back.

"Colonel Yiwen, you know, our Hardy Company does business for the logistics department and has not conducted private transactions. I would like to ask the boss about this matter?" Huo Qingdong said cleverly.

Ivan shrugged, "No problem, I'll wait for your news."

After speaking, he said: "No matter whether this matter is achieved or not, we cannot disclose information to the outside world."

Huo Qingdong nodded, "I understand this rule."

The patrol ship sent Huo Qingdong back to the loading island. Captain Yiwen waved goodbye. After the ship was loaded, Huo Qingdong returned to Hong Kong without stopping.

The scrap metal was handed over to his subordinates for processing, and he found Victor and explained to Victor in detail about the American patrol ship that the other party wanted to trade.

After Victor heard this, he didn't know if he could do this. After all, the American army and the Japanese were involved, so he immediately called Hardy.

Hardy smiled slightly after listening.

"If there is anything that can't be done, just collect all the ships at the price of 5 dollars a ton, and it can be regarded as a relationship with the US troops stationed on the island."

"Pull back and have a look, repair those that can be repaired, and sell scrap metal for those that cannot be repaired, without losing money."

"I understand Mr. Hardy." Victor said.

Huo Qingdong was right beside him. Hearing Hardy's words with his own ears, he admired in his heart that there is no business that big bosses dare not do.

Huo Qingdong thought for a while, and said to Victor: "Mr. Victor, these ships are bought. I plan to leave a few for the trading company. Do you think it is appropriate?"

Victor smiled, "You can decide these by yourself, as long as the boss agrees to buy, the others are fine."

Huo Qingdong rushed back to Okinawa without stopping. It was a coincidence that he encountered a patrol boat halfway, and it was still Captain Ivan’s ship today. This made Huo Qingdong wonder if Captain Ivan had been waiting for him.

Huo Qingdong let his ship send a signal to the patrol ship, and the other party knew immediately and followed the freighter to the port.

Huo Qingdong boarded the patrol ship again.

"How about it, does your boss agree?" Captain Ivan asked when he came up.

"Yes, our boss agreed, but our boss hopes that the price can be cheaper." Huo Qingdong played the nature of a businessman.

Ivan shrugged, "Then 4 dollars a ton."

"OK, it's only 4 dollars a ton." Huo Qingdong was pleasantly surprised. He was just bargaining for a try, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so happily.

Yiwen was happier, selling these scraps, and a group of officers at their base could share tens of thousands of dollars each.

This is not a small amount of money.

Brought Huo Qingdong to the steamship cemetery and counted them personally. These ships have specifications and weights at a glance. The tonnage can be calculated with a pen. There are 31 ships in total, and there are more small-tonnage ships, with a total of 106,000 tons.

A total of 424,000 US dollars.

When the business was done, Captain Ivan said: "I'll let someone come over and try to see how many can be started. If it can be started, you can drag it back and fill you up."

These American soldiers are very particular.

"That's great, I'm worried about how to go back." Huo Qingdong said.

After inspection, it was found that most of the boats were still open. I have to say that I was very lucky.

The next few days.

There are still frequent fleets of one-to-two or one-to-three ships that go to Hong Kong one after another, and then all stop in the waters of the Hadi Group’s wharf.

There is a ship repair company in Global Shipping. Huo Qingdong found a ship repair company to conduct a thorough overhaul of these ships. The ships that can be used are left behind, and the unused ones are directly towed to the shore. A group of demolition workers began to dismantle them, and it didn't take long for them to become iron plates. .

Then sold to steel plants.

In the end, a total of 23 ships were repaired. The original names and ship numbers on these ships were all painted off, painted again, and numbered, completely changed.

Huo Qingdong took a fancy to 4 ships, two of 1,600 tons and two of 3,900 tons. These two ships are relatively new and the tonnage is suitable, so he stayed. As for how to deal with the remaining ships, he didn’t have one. Clues.

You must know that these ships are not scrap iron now, and the price has more than doubled dozens of times.

A 1,000-ton troop carrier can be sold to him by the U.S. Army for only $4,000, which is the scrap price in the scrap price, and a ship that can run, even if it is second-hand, can be sold for more than 100,000 U.S. troops.

How to deal with the remaining dozen boats?

Huo Qingdong asked Victor for instructions, and Victor said: "Look if there is anything you want to buy in Hong Kong. If you have one, sell it. No one wants to ask the north side if you want it. The price can be cheaper."

Huo Qingdong released the news in private to see if anyone wanted to buy a ship. In a few days, someone really came to the door.

The visitor claims to be Bao Yugang. He used to work in the mainland. He just came to Hong Kong this year. The family has some savings and doesn't know what to do for a good career. I heard that Huo Qingdong has an idea for selling a ship and intends to buy a ship for shipping.

Bao Yugang has only 700,000 US dollars and can only buy two boats at most. After talking with Huo Qingdong, Huo Qingdong gave him an idea.

"You can buy a ship by yourself, then set up a shipping company, and then rent a few ships from Hardy Shipping. Now the shipping business is good, and you can buy a new ship when you gradually earn money."

Bao Yugang felt that Huo Qingdong's idea was very good, and then spent 400,000 US dollars to buy a 5,600-ton freighter, and after setting up his own shipping company, he rented four more ships from Hardy Shipping and started his own shipping road.

Bao Yugang and Huo Qingdong also became friends.

Huo Qingdong finally sold 8 ships and had 11 ships in his hand. He asked the North if he wanted it through a secret channel, and the North immediately expressed its willingness to buy.

Huo Qingdong gathered a large number of crew members, drove a dozen boats all the way north, and finally sent them to Lianyungang.

The people who picked up the ship saw these freighters and troop carriers, and felt happy, "To be honest, the cargo ship we have now has a total capacity of only 100,000 tons, but you have sent us a baby."

Recently, the North-South peace talks have reached a deadlock. Chen Bing in the north is looking for ships along the Yangtze River in preparation for the battle of crossing the river. These dozen ships are definitely sending guns in the snow.

The final price.

3.6 million US dollars.

The rabbit said he had no money.

It’s very happy when you want it. When you pay the bill, you just call out there is no money. Rabbit, you are too shameless, but this business Victor knows that Mr. Victor is responsible for the payment, and Huo Qingdong only takes care of the delivery.

With the Chinese medicinal materials loaded on the half-cargo ship, Huo Qingdong returned to Hong Kong.

At this time, the time has entered April.

The North-South peace talks are deadlocked, and the negotiated agreement, the bald-headed side just drags it away without signing it, and there is no sincerity at all.

Great men are not used to it.

On April 20, the battle of crossing the river started.

The wind and rain in Zhongshan have turned pale yellow, and millions of heroes have crossed the river.

More than 9,000 large and small ships launched a full-scale offensive from Anqing, Wuhu, Nanjing, and Jiangyin, and occupied Nanjing on April 23.

The south shakes.

Xiangjiang shakes.

"Beyond the nickname, the Kuomintang lost Nanjing, and millions of troops are marching towards Shanghai, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Zhejiang."

Many foreign business executives read the news in the newspapers, panicking, knowing that the defeat is set, what will happen to Hong Kong?

Just in the afternoon of the same day.

Family Master Yang of Yongchang Foreign Firm called Victor, "Mr. Victor, we agree to your previous offer and intend to sell Yongsheng Building."

Victor said lightly: "I'm sorry Mr. Yang, 6 million Hong Kong dollars is the previous quotation, now the risk has increased again, we only paid 4 million."

Patriarch Yang only felt distressed.

"Mr. Victor, how can you turn your back?"

"Haha, it’s not that I’m back, do you know how many people in Hong Kong are eager to sell assets? You are not the only one who called me. I can tell you clearly that our venture capital funds are online. If you don’t sell them now, When the venture capital is spent, I'm afraid no one will buy if you want to sell."

"If there is nothing to do, I will hang up first, there are still many people outside waiting for me to discuss the acquisition." Victor said.

"Wait, wait for Mr. Victor." Family Master Yang shouted anxiously.

Family Master Yang naturally knows that many people are now selling properties, including those of Oceanic Bank, which are also selling madly. Those Oceanic Bank’s assets are much more than him, which has had a great impact on the market, and those who dare to buy at this time cannot say few.

Almost nothing.

Anyway, he asked countless people, and now only Hardy is buying the industry, and there is no second one.

"I'll sell it to you for 4 million Hong Kong dollars."

Victor took the microphone and smiled lightly, "Then come over and sign the contract and write you a Wells Fargo bank check. With the check, you can withdraw cash at any Wells Fargo bank branch in the world."

"Okay, I'll go over immediately."

4 million Hong Kong dollars, 500,000 U.S. dollars, an 18-story building located in the most prosperous part of Hong Kong's Queen's Road.

And there is a vacant land of more than 20 acres in the back. This industry may be worth several billion in future generations, but now it only needs 4 million.

When Hardy saw the news about the beginning of the Battle of Crossing the River, he first called the people from Global Times and ABC Radio and told them to report on the news of the war every day. If anything is lost, report it urgently. .

What he wants is to make Hong Kong people always shocked.

Then he called Victor, Wells Fargo and HSBC people over, "As soon as this battle begins, Hong Kong must be panicked. I believe there will be a large number of properties sold and people abandon me. You will start buying, but the price must be Push down desperately."

Wait for the subordinates to leave.

Hardy smiled. He came to Hong Kong and waited for this day. This is a good time to acquire Hong Kong properties.
