【379】There are many spies

After Cao Xiaoqiang returned to the company, he found Zhou Lan and asked solemnly: "Zhou Lan, how much money does we have in our account? Today, I just signed a contract with the Ministry of National Defense with a total price of 30 billion yuan..."

Zhou Lan's eyes were wide open and her mouth was round, as if she couldn't close her mouth: "It's so deadly! Mr. Cao and the financial director Song Jingjing didn't read the statement just sent by him? We need to pay more than 15 billion yuan of funds for the second and third phases of the Ministry of Railways, Geely Group, the Ministry of Defense, etc., and there are only more than 4 billion yuan of cash left on the books."

Xiaoqiang said: "Why do I think there are more than one billion?"

Zhou Lan said: "There are more than 5 billion yuan that is not specifically used to purchase various consumer goods and industrial raw materials as you told me? I haven't seen the back paper yet! We shipped the goods, but there was no payment in Africa, and we only paid for the diamonds. We haven't had time to take advantage of this diamond yet."

Xiaoqiang continued to ask: "The sales of logs in the Chenyang branch are almost over? How many have they been sold in total? Haven't the finance department brought in the account yet?"

Zhou Lan was very dissatisfied with Xiaoqiang's chaotic estimate of funds and said complaining: "I sold more than 3 billion and 20 million, and it has been included in the general account. Don't you look carefully?"

Xiaoqiang smiled and said, "Didn't the second batch of 20 tons of sapphires have not been mortgaged yet?"

Zhou Lan said: "At present, the sales of natural sapphires have been around 6 tons. It is estimated that the global market this year has basically been saturated. If we ship faster, we will defeat the short-term market price of natural sapphires!

The 6 tons of goods have recovered nearly 90 billion yuan of funds, and have been used to repay the 80 billion yuan of mortgage loans in the previous period. I just paid off the mortgage loan with principal and interest.

At present, there are 14 tons of sapphires left in the first batch of twenty tons, and the 20 tons of sapphires shipped from the second batch have basically not moved, with a total of 34 tons of sapphires."

"Didn't you say the day before yesterday that some of our big gems have caused a sensation? Didn't they sell at a sky-high price?" Xiaoqiang asked.

Speaking of this, Zhou Lan said happily: "At present, more than 6,500 carats of high-purity sapphire rough stones were sold, and more than 30,000 carats of rough stones were sold, and more than 300 carats were sold in total. These big gems are indeed huge profits! African customers really don't know the goods, and they can't even classify the big gemstone rough stones in small gem piles? Haha.

However, Mr. Cao, the gem auction needs to be slow, and it will be worthless if it is sold too much at once. We are natural sapphires, not artificial sapphires! If you sell them at a low price, you will lose a lot."

Xiaoqiang said with a headache: "I just reported the finance side. The antique auction has now been held for five periods, all of which are 78 billion yuan. After deducting the handling fees and national taxes, the net income is 71.7 billion yuan. Another auction will be enough to pay off the 75 billion yuan loan obtained from the bank's antique mortgage."

Zhou Lan said: "Mr. Cao, according to the plan, these antiques will be auctioned for twenty periods. When the mortgage loan is repaid, the rest will be completely put into our company's books. It is not cost-effective to mortgage it again!

The previous auction once a month, the five phases were 9.5 billion, 13.2 billion, 16.4 billion, 17.7 billion, and 21.2 billion respectively. This is the momentum of sesame blossoming! Manager Liao Guoqiang of Rongbaozhai said that after the sixth phase, the mortgage loan will definitely be paid. He also suggested that we stop the auction first and wait until the auction will continue next spring, and the price will be higher."

Xiaoqiang frowned slightly and said, "Didn't you see that the company is short of money? As long as you lack money, the auction cannot be stopped for the time being!"

Zhou Lan said: "The Palace Museum, the National Museum and cultural relics organizations in various places have selected a lot of antiques from our company's items. It is roughly estimated that there are about 3 billion yuan. According to your instructions from Mr. Cao, these are all considered donations. The State Administration of Cultural Heritage is very happy and plans to arrange for CCTV to shoot us a news interview."

Xiaoqiang refused and said, "I'm not interested. You represent the company, and you can bring the knowledgeable manager Liao of Rongbaozhai and others together."

Zhou Lan said with a tsk: "Mr. Cao, you are really a rare philanthropist. Donors these days, without the TV station and news media, you are simply unstoppable, but you don't even look down on CCTV."

Xiaoqiang said decisively: "The big tree attracts wind, I don't want to make this false reputation. How is the diamond sales brought this time?"

Zhou Lanxi said: "It's easy to sell! 80% of the goods in the domestic diamond market are smuggled ore, and the price has been rising. In a year, after repeated promotions of Derbils, the price of trophy diamonds has risen by 30%!

On the contrary, my country imports more than 5 billion US dollars of diamonds every year. In fact, the value of diamonds entering through smuggling channels is three to four times the official number! So our goods are easy to use. The jewelry companies across the country that the company contacted before are now coming to Beidu. Our company's gem business department has been busy these two days!"

Xiaoqiang said firmly: "Sell! Sell! It's 500 kilograms! If you sell slowly, you don't know which day it will be sold. These goods are within one carat. The ones who give the goods are very exquisite, and there are no big ones inside."

Zhou Lan said: "These 500 kilograms of wool diamonds are estimated by the gem business department, using the price of smuggled Russian diamonds. If the sale is large, it will be worth at least about US$4 billion, about RMB 26 billion."

Xiaoqiang said: "I've dumped it all. Now is the time to urgently need money. This time, the 30 billion hole must be filled immediately."

"Okay, I'll tell the Gem Division."

Xiao Qiang, who was probably able to temporarily fill the fund hole with diamonds in front of him, breathed a sigh of relief. After Zhou Lan hurried out of his office, he took out the warehouse inventory slip and read it carefully.

"It's probably all... After attending this Ministry of National Defense cocktail party, you can set off." Xiaoqiang looked through the inventory list of Beidu Logistics Park and said to himself.

………………………………………

The Chinese branch of the American Mingzhu Promotion Foundation.

This is a small conference room with no windows and people walking inside, feeling soft under their feet. When decorating this conference room, it was coated with two millimeters from top to bottom with a special rubber coating to ensure that no electromagnetic signal can penetrate.

"The rise of this Xiaoqiang's international trade is unprecedented! Logs! Sapphires! Antiques! Now they are diamonds! They have all been replaced with arms and industrial equipment, and a large amount of civilian supplies! I just don't know who the buyer is!" Fujita Masato said heavily in broken Japanese English.

"According to our comprehensive analysis with the intelligence department of the embassy, ​​this is a large-scale arms export group under the China Government and non-public and has not made any reports on the surface! Their main export targets are underdeveloped countries or non-government armed organizations, which mainly adopt the form of barter trade. A large amount of low-level arms are exported to African countries in exchange for primary resources such as minerals. At present, CIA's intelligence departments in Africa have begun a comprehensive investigation, but there is no clue. There is no trace of this company on the surface import and export list of all African ports!" Rogriguez said angrily.

"Equatorial Guinea is the focus! Have you checked?" asked Tom Cran, a senior intelligence officer who had just flew to Northern Capital from Langley, Virginia.

"According to the ambassador Mambi, Cao Xiaoqiang just asked him to recommend and issue a secret procurement note to China. He only made a transaction in total and never contacted him again. I guess this is just a cover, the purpose is to mislead our sight." Rogriguez replied.

"We need to continue to investigate and go deeper!" Tom Crane frowned.

Masato Fujita shook his head and said, "This is very difficult. At present, there are a large number of Chinese intelligence personnel operating around Xiaoqiang's international trade. The company's nominal chairman Cao Xiaoqiang, general manager Zhou Lan, and directors of various business departments on the board of directors, are staring at them 24 hours a day.

Especially their chairman Cao Xiaoqiang! We found that there was more than one special service vehicle following him, just the kind of Iveco who was dragging the van work cabin. We found five different license plates in front and behind.

I guess the other party should have discovered us. According to the report from the Equipment Department, the mobile phones of several of our special service personnel have been invaded."

Tom Crane asked: "Have you done a more in-depth investigation into that suspicious warehouse?"

Masato Fujita, who is in charge of the intelligence collection operation team, shook his head and said, "It is impossible to get close. Watanabe Hiroseki and Takazo Otsuka tried to bring equipment in, but were detained by the Chinese security department and are currently deported by China in the name of illegal surveying and mapping."

"Damn it." Tom Crane complained.
