Chapter 975 Taking advantage of the situation
Zeng Wangcai and Wan Ka are not showing off when they talk about the Thirty-Six Stratagems. Pretending to be impressive when others can understand it is showing off. If you still pretend when others cannot understand it, you are stupid.
However, there are so many strategies among the Thirty-Six Stratagems, and Zeng Wangcai has to consider which one to use.
He learned that Jenny wanted to know which assets he wanted to acquire, which meant that Jenny would definitely do something about these projects.
He feels that it doesn't matter what you do because it will all end up at a negotiating table.
"Repairing the plank road in the open while secretly attacking Chencang?" While waiting for Wu Yao to send someone, Zeng Wangcai muttered to himself, thinking about what to do.
He quickly rejected this plan. He thought that the Americans would not let him succeed easily this time. Even if he could succeed, it would be disadvantageous for future events.
"It's better to take advantage of the situation..." Zeng Wangcai made the decision quickly.
After someone came in the evening, Zeng Wangcai finalized a list after comparison by professionals.
Damao's industrial capabilities are very strong, and what Zeng Wangcai is interested in can be divided into two categories: the first is technology, and the second is resources.
The technology category is industrial technology, including some military technology, while the resource category is even simpler, including minerals, steel, etc.
In addition to these two major categories of assets, there are also numerous industrial products, including some weapons that need to be disposed of.
Ermao is even selling its aircraft carrier, and Damuo also has some projects that cannot be carried out.
Zeng Wangcai believed that the Americans had the same goal as him. He did not make this judgment based on the list given by Wanka. There are many examples of this in later generations.
Grabbing oil and rare earths, aren’t they all resources?
Zeng Wangcai needs to conceal his true intentions, so he must find a direction that Jenny can believe.
Zeng Wangcai didn't sleep much that night. He looked at the assets on the list over and over again, using AI to query the background of each asset.
The next day, Zeng Wangcai did not contact Wanka. Instead, he identified several targets, prepared detailed information about these targets, and went to the river again and rented a boat.
"Good guy, we agreed to come out to work, but ended up taking a cruise every day." Cao Wang joked as he got on the boat.
Zeng Wangcai could see that Wu Yao and Cao Wang were uneasiness and a little anxious.
"Because Old Ye is meeting Jenny today, you feel ignored and embarrassed?" Zeng Wangcai hit the nail on the head when they were both thinking.
Originally, Zeng Wangcai and his team arrived earlier, so they should have talked first.
But at present, it seems that the courtesy Wu Yao and Cao Wang receive is obviously not as good as Jenny.
"We are fine!" Wu Yao said with a wry smile, "It's just that the whole world is watching us now. What happens here every day is known to the whole world. We are being ignored..."
I understand. It doesn’t matter to me. It’s just that it will make mom look bad.
"It doesn't matter. Even if they ignore us today, we will make sure we are out of our reach tomorrow!" Zeng Wangcai said a famous quote without any psychological pressure.
"Don't talk about these useless things. How are you doing?" Cao Wang said angrily, "You worked on it all night last night. Did you get any results? What does the Xilin faction say?"
"Xilin faction, don't worry. Let's get ready first. This is the last difficult part!" Zeng Wangcai handed the results of last night to the two of them, and said, "Here are two short lists. If you were asked to choose, which one would you like to get, or which assets on the two lists?"
Wu Yao and Cao Wang each picked up a piece of material and looked at it carefully, and Zeng Wangcai handed them two water-based pens.
The list was not long, and the two of them quickly read through it and made their choices.
"These are all related to military technology..." Wu Yao said after summarizing the list in Cao Wang's hand, "If we were asked to choose, we would choose these. Do you mean that we should get these?"
"No, I don't want any of these!"
"..."
What the hell, you don't even want us to choose anything?
To entertain both of us?
"It's like this, Wanka came to see me yesterday..." Zeng Wangcai slowly told him everything that happened yesterday, and even described in detail the agreement between him and Wanka.
"You are really rich, but two million dollars is just a waste." Cao Wang smiled bitterly after hearing this.
"I can't help it. The opponent is too strong. If I want to get what I want, I have to sacrifice the child." Zeng Wangcai said with a smile, "I will give the list to Wanka, and then give it to Jenny through Wanka... and hide what I want."
......
The American safe house.
After a busy day, Jenny summoned Vanka alone when he had some free time.
"My friend, you did a great job!" After attending the dinner, a tipsy Jenny sat on the sofa with his hairy chest exposed. Opposite him was Wanka who had just arrived. "We have made great progress. That stupid Ye believed in us..."
As Zeng Wangcai guessed, Jenny easily gained Lao Ye's trust and reached some kind of cooperation intention.
But because of the existence of the Xilin School, things still developed in the direction Zeng Wangcai hoped.
"You need to get what I want before Thursday!" Jenny gave Wanka a time limit, "Because on Friday, we will have a private meeting. Um... then the Russian Bear will take out some of his assets for our two families to fight over."
"How could this happen?" Vanka deliberately asked in surprise, "This is not in accordance with custom. It's too ugly for our two families to be together!"
"Don't say that!" Jenny was very satisfied with the result. He smiled and said, "This just proves that we are on the right track. This kind of situation can easily offend people."
After the last eavesdropping, Jenny has already trusted Vanka and says these things in front of Vanka.
Based on Jenny's words, Wanka figured out that in addition to coming to reap the wealth of the Russian bear, Jenny also wanted to use the Russian bear to fight against Dongda.
He could now imagine what the scene would be like when people from both sides met under the arrangement of the Russian Bear.
Wan Ka was naturally not worried about continuing to contact Zeng Wangcai. With trust, he was not afraid of anything.
Later, he followed Zeng Wangcai's idea to find him. At the same time, Wu Yao and Cao Wang received a notice from the Russian authorities to meet Lao Ye in the famous building.
Soon the two found out about the private meeting on Friday. If it had happened in the past, they would have been very angry and would have staged a real protest.
But not now. Although both of them were equally angry in front of Lao Ye, it was fake, and their protest was also fake. They both pretended that they had to bow their heads and accepted Lao Ye's arrangement.
The venue for Friday's meeting was Winston Manor, where Zeng Wangcai had visited once. Because of this matter, Xiaoye from the Xilin faction took over and presided over it.
The Xilin faction represented by Boris accepted Zeng Wangcai's suggestions in their entirety and launched Xiaoye.
The ruling group that Lao Ye belonged to did not obstruct at all. They believed that presiding over this matter was not a good thing because it would inevitably offend one party.
By then, if things are not handled properly, Xiaoye can be used as a scapegoat.
Everyone has their own plans, including Zeng Wangcai.
On Friday, he attended the negotiation on behalf of Dongda. Wu Yao and Cao Wang did not accompany him, in order to avoid unfavorable progress and no room for maneuver.
Zeng Wangcai successfully formed a Shura and personally took action...
