Chapter 638 Trading
Lin Yu did not speak, but just looked at the other party calmly. Although this was the first time he saw Mr. Z in person, as a senior who was highly respected by the people of later generations, Lin Yu still respected him very much, so he wanted to hear what the other party had to say.
Mr. Z looked at the young man in front of him who was less than 30 years old, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Over the years, he has seen many young talents, many of whom are extremely talented. However, when facing the young master of Qinglian Palace in front of him, he actually had a vague feeling of mystery, and it seemed that the other's eyes could see through his heart.
Mr. Z took a sip of tea from the cup and said bitterly, "Advisor Lin, the country is in a state of disrepair. If we want to revitalize the domestic economy, we must first vigorously develop industry. Our country is now extremely poor, especially with a very weak industrial base. Relying on our own research and development is simply not enough to quench our thirst. However, if we want to introduce advanced production technology and equipment, the Western forces led by the bald eagle are jointly suppressing and blockading our country. At present, we can only rely on the help of the North Soviet Union. Although we know that the equipment and technology provided by the North Soviet Union are already things that they have eliminated, for the current Domestically, it is considered to be relatively advanced. However, there is no free lunch in the world. The technology, equipment and technical support provided by Beisu will eventually need to be repaid with real money. We are currently in urgent need of a large number of coffins and funds, including steel for industrial development. In addition to the needs of the domestic economy, the funds are more for paying Beisu's loans and debts. The first thing I want to discuss today is that Mr. Zhou mentioned that Consultant Lin has hundreds of thousands of tons of various steels obtained from Europe and the United States. We hope to get these steels, of course, to see what you need here, and both sides can use them for exchange. "
Lin Yu took a puff of his cigar, and then said calmly: "To be honest, there is really nothing I need in the country at present. What we cultivators need are all kinds of spiritual herbs, spiritual stones and other cultivation resources. Unfortunately, the world is now in the Dharma Ending Age, and almost all the spiritual veins have long been exhausted, so there are no such cultivation resources, and our Qinglian Palace is not short of these cultivation resources. Of course, that little bit of steel is of little practical use to us. Even if all of it is refined, it is estimated that in the end we can only get a mere 100 to 180 kilograms of black iron, but our Qinglian Palace has no use for low-level spiritual materials such as black iron. Since Mr. Z wants to exchange, let's do this. Even if these steels are lent to the country, the country does not need to bear interest. As long as Lin Nan's children come of age, that is, after 25 years, the country will pay the money according to the market price at that time."
Mr. Z was overjoyed after hearing this. Before he came here, he had discussed this matter with Mr. M. Such a large amount of steel, even at the current domestic steel allocation price of six or seven hundred yuan per ton, is an astronomical figure. What's more, the information he got from Mr. Zhou is that these are all various high-quality steels currently available in the world. The actual price is several times the allocation price of ordinary domestic steel. What's more, with the current international situation, even if the country wants to import, we can't buy it at all due to the tight blockade by Western forces headed by the Bald Eagle. Besides, the country simply does not have so much foreign exchange.
As for asking Lin Yu to donate so much steel directly to the country free of charge, the two gentlemen really don't want to do so unless it is absolutely necessary. They really don't want the relationship between the two parties to be affected by such things. The saying "a little bit of rice is a favor, and a big bit of rice is a grudge" also applies here.
Now, according to Lin Yu’s proposal, these hundreds of thousands of tons of high-quality steel will be loaned to the country free of charge. Twenty-five years later, the country will pay Lin Nan the purchase price according to the value at that time.
Although Mr. Z didn't understand why Lin Yu would leave such a huge fortune to Lin Nan and her children instead of to his own children, this was only a matter between the two siblings. As an outsider, there was no need for him to understand. What Mr. Z thought about at this time was how much help such a large amount of high-quality steel could provide to the country's current economic construction.
Zhou Tian said calmly, "Mr. Z, I have counted the inventory in the Qinglian Palace warehouse. The total amount of various steel products is close to one million tons. Please arrange a receiving location and we will deliver it directly."
Mr. Z was very surprised after hearing this. He did not expect that there would be so much high-quality steel. He then said embarrassedly: "Mr. Zhou, if such a large amount of steel is placed directly in Beijing, it will probably cause great pressure on railway transportation..."
Without waiting for the other party to finish, Zhou Tian smiled and said, "I have a detailed list of all the steel here. Mr. Z can go back and make specific allocations. After you make a list, I will have someone place it directly at the designated location, so that you don't have to use the already very tight transportation capacity."
Mr. Z couldn't help but thank him repeatedly. What he meant just now was to place the steel materials in batches directly across the country, but he was still worried that the other party would refuse. He didn't expect Mr. Zhou to bring it up directly, which would greatly save transportation.
Lin Yu flicked the ash off his cigarette and said calmly, "Mr. Z, I think the second thing you want to discuss is about foreign exchange. To be honest, I do have a lot of US dollars, British pounds and Swiss francs, which can be lent to the country. However, I have to point out in advance that most of these foreign currencies come from the vaults of major banks in countries such as Bald Eagle, England and Switzerland."
Mr. Z laughed and said, "Advisor Lin, we are not afraid of the so-called United Nations forces from 17 countries, let alone who can prove that these foreign currencies originally belonged to them? There is no sign of their names on the coins."
Lin Yu smiled and nodded. He knew that the current leaders would not care about the Western powers, but it was better to make some things clear in advance.
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Mr. Z, I know the government wants to pay off the debt owed to Beisu as soon as possible, but I still suggest that you take your time and don't pay it off all at once. With the greedy nature of the polar bear, you may do something weird at that time. In addition, you must not use domestic food and other materials to repay the debt. In the next few years, the country itself will need a large amount of food and materials. Also, please give me a list of debts to Beisu and a list of future repayments. I will settle this account with the polar bear later."
