Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

"...You mean...you mean..." Tao Zhiming looked back, "This order...is related to that transaction?"

Tao Yaren looked at him coldly: "You have to thank me, the Tao family. If it wasn't for us, you would have already been in big trouble!"

Tao Zhiming was silent for a long time before cursing out loud: "...Damn! I said that the 10 billion meter order that Hassar bragged about, how could it come true... What's going on?"

Chapter 420, The follow-up disturbance of log trading

Tao Zhiming finally understood what happened behind the scenes in the past half a year in the lamentation of Tao Yaren, who was cheated by Tao Zhiming.

In March last year, a newspaper in the United States was the first to disclose the news of the log transaction, calling on the United States to sanction Ouyert.

Then in April, Xia Guo officially announced that there was indeed such a thing.

During the delivery process, the king's younger brother and Hassar's uncle personally escorted the yacht, and it is said that he even dangled on a freighter; although ships and planes from the United States followed the whole process, nothing happened after all.

Before and after that, Tao Zhiming just played around with Hassar.

After that, it's a game of all parties.

At that moment, the struggle between the United States and Hongsu was entering a critical period. Xia Guo's role was very important, and Xia Guo's position was also very delicate.

All in all, although Tao Zhiming was not informed of the specific game strategy, he had a prophet. He knew that the deal would come to naught, so he was acquiesced.

Just as Huo Yingdong said, Tao Zhiming and Huo Yingdong didn't need to come forward for the part of the transaction known to the world.

This matter itself has reached a consensus in the private transaction of all parties. After all, Oyert has a bargaining chip with Ami Petroleum. Behind Ami Petroleum is the industrial capital consortium of the United States.The United States has something to ask for Ouyert, and it also has some demands for Xia Guo's position, so it just changed its tone later, despising that Xia Guo's logs are not thick enough, hard enough, or long enough.

But everyone is actually guessing whether Ouyert and Xia Guo have had more in-depth exchanges to explore more wonderful works of art.

Later, in the second half of the year, the royal family of Oyert threw out the plan of "royal vision".

Tao Zhiming did not appear in the sight of others until the end of the year. After all, this plan was thrown out by the king himself.But at the end of the year, Hassar was actually launched to take charge of this matter, and the supply order was handed over to Tao Zhiming.

Of course, the interior of Oyert's royal family is not monolithic, and the penetration of AMI oil was much earlier.

Therefore, it was Tao Yaren's masters who knew about this first, and also knew that some Xiaguo and Neon products were required in the order.

This really looks like a big game of chess, and they want to use the excuse of promoting relations and expanding trade to do something.

These matters have nothing to do with the interests of the consortium, but they are also related.So the Tao family was asked about this matter. After all, in the eyes of the masters behind the Tao family, Tao Zhiming is now supported by the Tao family, so don't set the fire on them.

It was Tao Yaren who was in direct contact with Tao Zhiming, so Tao Yaren was called to the country of America.

Here comes the funny part. Tao Yaren actually got 15 billion yuan from the Tao family, but he told Tao Zhiming that the low-interest loan can only be counted as 12 billion yuan, and the other 3 million yuan was put into the relationship between him and Hector. that fund to enrich his own little coffers.

So Tao Yaren was the first to bear the brunt, and couldn't allow this matter to escalate further.

The point is that Tao Zhiming and Huo Yingdong's participation is indeed limited to the top secrets of the Oyert royal family and Xia Kingdom.Ami Petroleum is also not sure whether this transaction is really an inside story, or it is just a follow-up to the upgrading of cooperation between the two countries in the economic and trade field because of the close relationship between the two countries due to this transaction.

Here we have to clarify one point: the Tao family is not a person cultivated by the public authority of the United States in Nihong, but a consortium of the United States.It's just that the consortium is huge and has a good penetration of the middle-level bureaucrats. Therefore, the Tao family can actually play a role in doing big things.

Therefore, Tao Yaren was interrogated by the consortium for a long time. Since there was no sufficient evidence for this matter, after he tried his best to guarantee that Tao Zhiming was indeed just talking about business, the matter went through a procedure and ended hastily through those bureaucrats who did the specific work. investigation.

During this process, only Tao Yaren suffered.

Who made him be corrupted by Tao Zhiming long ago?Pull out the radish and bring out the mud. The Tao family has strict laws. He swallowed 3 million yuan for his own use. This is a big death.

Tao Zhiming was very moved when he heard this, and poured wine for him: "It's better for the big consortium to be cautious, how could I think so much? When I took out the plan last September and asked Hassar to handle it, this matter Isn't it already over?"

This was the opinion given by Xia Guo after Tao Zhiming took out the plan and handed it over.

Anyway, the real deal will only start this year, as long as it is finalized before the end of the year, the later the better.

Inside Ouyert, inside Xiaguo, anyone who leaks outside must be on guard.All in all, the link of Tao Zhiming has been guaranteed, and the two countries will handle the general environment well.In the specific process, the firewall on Xiaguo's side is the Huo family, and the firewall on Ouyert's side is the royal family's vision.Tao Zhiming is just a middleman, the Huo family gives him the goods, and the royal vision buys his goods, as long as he can make money.

Besides, most of them are things with poor quality and negotiable value.

This tea, you said 1 yuan per catty, is only for the royal family's top quality tea, it makes sense.

In fact, it may be only 100 yuan a catty.

For such a major event, the framework proposed by Tao Zhiming has been perfected by two experts, and there are no loopholes.

Import and export trade, this is not allowed to do?

As for why Hassar was allowed to do this, it was a feudal monarchy, and the king favored his son, so what's the point?

Why did Hassar let Tao Zhiming earn this money?They have the same taste, have fun, and Tao Zhiming is young and capable, so what's wrong with entrusting him to do it?

Why did Tao Zhiming find the Huo family?The answer just now is also very convincing.

One ring and one ring, a perfect closed loop.

Only Tao Yaren was at a loss in this process, and finally had to cooperate to mend the matter, and added an impression that "our Asia-Pacific peripheral organization is playing big chess".

Holding the wine poured by Tao Zhiming, Tao Yaren simply said: "Anyway, this matter is over now. It is also a good thing that you can expand your influence on Ouyerte, but I also need you to promise me a few conditions. "

"...Isn't it appropriate?" Tao Zhiming argued, "I've done business in a clean manner, and I haven't harmed your interests?"

"...Even if the truth of this matter is only this, the plan of the royal family's vision, and the accumulation of AMI oil there, should have been done by them." Tao Yaren's eyes were sharp, "You understand, king Why you insist on choosing Hassar and you is always questionable."

"What do you mean by forgetting?" Tao Zhiming continued to be upset, "Then you suspect that their royal family should go and investigate. I have to pay for this business this year, and they will pay the bill at the end of the year. At worst, I won't do it."

"...You didn't listen to what I said about the conditions, and it's not necessarily a bad thing for you."

Tao Zhiming stared wide-eyed: "Then why don't you keep throwing such a big pot on me? Am I not afraid?"

"...Speak well." Tao Yaren didn't have any evidence, so there was nothing to do with him.Besides, he was also afraid that there would be evidence.If there is any evidence, Tao Yaren himself will be finished.

Before he knew it, he was on Tao Zhiming's boat.

Thinking of this, Tao Yaren felt a little wronged, and gave him another sad look.

Tao Zhiming poured him a glass of wine again, smiling all over his face: "Right, let's discuss it carefully. I haven't contacted you for a long time, and there are many things that need to be discussed carefully. Tell me, what ideas do you have?"

The condition became an idea, and Tao Yaren could only say this: "First thing, you still have to divide some of Ouyert's order, and we will buy some goods on hand."

"Then I can't lose money on this part, and then I will arrange for someone to connect and see the supply price." Tao Zhiming said seriously, as if thinking of something again, "With our relationship, don't worry, so I can only pay after receiving the payment. , I will pay you at the end of the year."

Tao Ya was tired, drank the wine and continued: "The second thing is to add fire to the Real Estate Trust Charity Fund within this year and expand the number of residents it benefits."

Tao Zhiming frowned: "I have already started selling real estate assets, and now I continue to invest in this area, and my income has been getting lower and lower."

This is telling the truth. The scale of the real estate trust charitable fund continues to expand, and the benefits of subsidized interest benefit more people. And the complaints were overwhelming.But since Tao Zhiming has already cleared the real estate assets in his hands, this investment is indeed getting lower and lower returns for him.

"... at least symbolically continue to invest!"

Tao Zhiming gritted his teeth: "In my capacity, even if it is a symbolic investment, it is at the level of [-] million yen. I am short of money now!"

These words made Tao Yaren very tangled.

Originally, he thought that if he suppressed the words involving top-level political disputes, he should be terrified no matter what.

In the end, anyway, he was reluctant to meet every request, and it seemed like he was trying to save Tao Ya's face.

Now when it comes to the second one, it's already stuck.

Do you tell him: I said you have a ghost in your heart, and you have it?

He doesn't eat this one.

Tao Yaren was stunned for a while before saying, "Didn't you and Kinoshita Hidekaze have other residential projects that have not been completed?"

"The rate of return is also very low! Only the second phase of the projects I participated in has not been sold, and they will be completed within this year. The future projects have nothing to do with me. Why should I continue to increase investment? With that money, wouldn't it be more cost-effective for me to invest in my own Onodera wealth?"

There's nothing wrong with it, Tao Yaren thought about it, there's nothing wrong with it, that's the reason.

Instead, Tao Zhiming asked: "What's the benefit of investing in the trust charity fund? It's not for my own project, is it?"

"...Of course, it made those second batch of people who invested in the sub-capital project more confident."

Tao Zhiming frowned: "But in the pre-sale model, there is a high probability that they can recover their investment before the real estate market completely collapses, right?"

Tao Ya people understood what he was talking about, which meant that there was no way to let these people fall into the crisis of the capital chain and harvest them when the bubble burst.

So he thought for a while and said with concentration: "So, if you increase your investment in trust charitable funds, you will have a greater right to speak."

"... What does this have to do with what I said?"

Tao Ya was convinced, and looked at him speechlessly.

Tao Zhiming: Confused.jpg.

"Don't play dumb with me!" Tao Yaren scorned helplessly, "Didn't you just say that Takegami Taro asked Hashimoto Taro to ask you about our Tao family?"

"... What's the relationship between the two?" Tao Zhiming was still confused.

"Then think about it yourself!" Tao Yaren looked too lazy to tell him, and drank by himself.

Tao Zhiming really pretended to think about it, and after a long time, he clenched his fist and tapped on his palm: "Oh~ Could it be that the Lilu Lite incident was caused by you?"

Tao Yaren looked at him lazily: You pretend, you pretend again?

"...As expected of the Tao family!" Tao Zhiming pretended with a little psychological pressure, "It's really you?"

Tao Yaren then said reservedly and proudly: "Is this something new? No one who can get to this position is completely innocent. All in all, at least within this year, no one will be able to scatter their energy to really deal with it. These things make the sub-city plan move forward at what pace like in the past."

"I see!"

Tao Zhiming understands that if Tsutsumi enters the market at this time, although he may also judge that the good market of Neon Real Estate is not left for a few years, but with the pre-sale model and the assistance of the trust charity fund, he thinks that at least it can The harvest of this wave of leeks will be completed within one or two years.

However, the Tao family is the one who holds the initiative.

There is a leading party inside, which assists the charitable trust fund in appealing to voters. They are very sure to create a situation: the political arena of Neon is unstable.

The people at the top are all busy fighting for power. How can a project like Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's 2 trillion yen be successfully placed?

As long as the time drags on for a year or so, he will fall into this pit, unable to climb up, and will choke to death.

Tao Zhiming figured out this joint, and asked like a little money fan: "Then what can I get?"

Tao Yaren was speechless.

Why is something wrong?Shouldn't his response be: "How can I avoid losses"?

Why isn't he a bit scared when he is involved in a transaction of the level of "logs" between big countries?

Is it true that you have a clear conscience, that the grass and trees in the United States are all soldiers?

"...You." Tao Yaren thought for a long time before saying, "Didn't you already foresee this situation and start withdrawing funds now? There will be a lot of opportunities at that time."

Tao Zhiming looked at him quietly.

Tao Yaren looked into his eyes and said helplessly, "Don't be too greedy. Being able to actively promote the emergence of that situation and grasp that opportunity is not more efficient than your purely vague judgment?"

Tao Zhiming shook his head: "I'm short of funds now, and I'm only willing to invest this money unless there is a clear benefit."

The scene fell silent again.

Tao Yaren was silent for a long time before he lowered his head and didn't look at him. He said, "There was one more condition, but now I cancel it without authorization. This batch of targets originally included Mogami Gokurakucho in the future. You Don't ask me where there are clear benefits, I tell you this because of our special interest relationship."

Tao Zhiming's heart was shocked, and his tone became cold: "Mogami Gokurakucho?"

Tao Yaren raised his head: "That's right. I know you have a good relationship with Kinoshita Hidekazu, but I don't need to explain in detail now, you probably understand what kind of power our Tao family is. Are you standing with us, or are your blood boiling?" Taking care of the righteousness of friends, now I am the master, and let you avoid this kind of choice. Of course, the way is ingenious, don't make it difficult for me."

Tao Zhiming still looked at him sharply, but this time Tao Yaren faced him calmly.

Tao Zhiming said after a long time, "You should be clear that brother Xiufeng will always ask for my opinion on major decisions."

"That's why I said, this is to save you from this kind of choice." Tao Yaren said frankly, "One is the income of one billion yuan, and the other is to be our enemy. You choose."

Tao Zhiming lowered his head and drank the wine silently.

To put it bluntly, according to the information that has come out, Tao Yaren, the Tao family, or the American capital behind the Tao family temporarily regard Tao Zhiming as a partner.Of course, the premise is still the old-fashioned "voting certificate": break with Kinoshita Hidekaze, or even cheat him.

And Tao Yaren's implication is that because of the private interest relationship he and Tao Zhiming have established, he first told Tao Zhiming this special information, and asked him to find a clever way to reassure the masters behind the Tao family.

It sounds like a big "favor", but it is quite unreasonable.

Tao Zhiming was very disgusted, so he said lightly: "If this is your condition, then there is no need to talk about the following things. Today I can treat brother Xiufeng like this, and tomorrow I can treat you like this. I said, what Oyer The deal between Te and Xia Guo has nothing to do with me. If you use this as a bargaining chip, I don't recognize it. If you want to investigate, then come and investigate."

The words were so sonorous that Tao Yaren was instantly generalized.

You don't feel pain in your back when you stand and talk, now my buddy and you are tied to the same rope, isn't checking you just checking me?

Tao Ya was extremely depressed, and broke her defense while drinking: "This is the task I need to complete! It is a clear task! Then what do you say?"

"Tell me, what are the other goals?"

"Target?" Tao Yaren sneered a few times, "All the Neon consortia, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, Moriya, Kitaro Watanabe, Hidekaze Kinoshita, Haruhiko Yoshimoto's family...and you Tao Dalang!"

Tao Zhiming stared at him like a sword.

"Don't think I'm alarmist." Tao Yaren sneered, "This is a big plan with a total investment of nearly one trillion yuan. Even I only learned about it recently, but you, the prophet of the future, have already communicated with our Tao family and me in advance. Such a close relationship has been achieved. All I can do is to cover you in my harvest, so that others will no longer attack you."

Tao Zhiming also stood up with a sneer: "It's so bold! I don't believe it. Now who can take advantage of the bursting of the neon economy and see me as a harvest target! No matter who comes, this attack is up to I'll handle it!"
