Chapter 1294 ·Testing
Min Tingke drank the tea calmly.
Anyway, it was the Yu family who invited him here. Since the other party didn't speak, he could naturally keep calm and wait for the move.
Seeing his calm and calm expression, Mr. Yu secretly admired him. Young people are impetuous and always do things in a turbulent manner. People like Min Tingke can be both violent, violent and calm at the same time.
There weren't many people.
If several of my children and grandchildren could learn 10%, the Yu family would not be where it is today.
Mr. Yu sighed softly and took the initiative to chat, "Master Min Liu, people can't remember things when they get old. When was the last time we met?"
Min Tingke smiled and said, "It seems to be around the Mid-Autumn Festival the year before last."
Mr. Yu nodded, "At that time, I only knew that Mr. Min Liu was young and accomplished and a rare talent. But I didn't know that you had such a good relationship with foreigners..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, Min Tingke raised his eyebrows slightly, "Master Yu, do you have business to do with foreigners?"
It's clear in one point, and it's surprisingly clever.
Mr. Yu was stunned for a moment, and instinctively agreed, "That's right. It's just that no one introduced me, so I have never been able to talk to foreigners. Now I want to take advantage of Liu Ye's influence to establish relationships with foreigners. If Liu Ye is willing to help, it will be good.
Of course there won’t be any less.”
A disdainful smile appeared on Min Tingke's face.
This Yu family is so funny... What does Min Tingke lack? What can the Yu family give him? Besides, there are so many people in Shanghai waiting to have relationships with foreigners, so who does the Yu family count?
Min Tingke said coldly, "Master Yu thinks too highly of me. At such a young age, I can run errands and behave well in front of foreigners. What can I say? I am afraid that I am powerless and cannot help with this kind of thing."
The meaning of passing the buck is very obvious.
But Mr. Yu said with confidence, "Sixth Mr., don't be too busy refusing, listen to what I have to say. This business is very good, and many people want to do it, but they can't do it."
Min Tingke asked doubtfully, "What business?"
Mr. Yu lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Big smoke."
Min Tingke frowned slightly, "What kind of joke are you making, Mr. Yu? Since Mr. Lin sold out cigarettes in Humen, the opium business has not been so easy to do. Those who can still open opium dens today are mostly due to collusion between government and businessmen."
, you can smuggle some goods from the customs, and the price is extremely high. If you don’t have a very strong family background, I advise you to accept this idea. "
However, Mr. Yu said, "I don't say secret things in front of people. Since I dare to speak like this, it makes sense. Mr. Liu can just make arrangements with confidence and boldness. If anything happens, the Yu family will take care of it."
"That's not possible." Min Tingke said solemnly, "The matter is very important. It's not just a matter of touching the upper lip to the lower lip. If something really happens, the foreigners can't blame you. Why can't they find me?"
?I would rather not earn this benefit than worry about this. In the end, you will run away cleanly. How should I explain it in front of foreigners?"
Seeing that what he said was not wrong, Mr. Yu hesitated for a moment and then said slowly, "It is rare for young people to be as cautious as Mr. Liu. I just want to tell you. I have not seen Mr. Yang specifically."
But it couldn’t be said before—our Yu family has its own source of goods.”
Min Tingke suddenly realized.
This family must have found a hidden place to plant their own tobacco seeds.
You dare to do such a stupid thing, the Yu family is really not afraid of death.
Min Tingke said calmly, "Mr. Yu, you dare to tell me such a big thing, aren't you afraid that I will bring it to the government for you?"
Mr. Yu smiled slightly, "Today, Fengming Tower has been booked by me. Except for everyone here, there is no one else. If Mr. Six has done something unjust, I will naturally not admit it when the government comes to inquire.
On the contrary, it will be pushed cleanly. The Yu family’s background is innocent, so what?
Nothing can be found out, but it is Mr. Liu who is harming the alliance with such lies. How will outsiders view you? Who will dare to do business with your Min family in the future? Everyone is a businessman, and Mr. Liu knows how to do business.
Man, I'm sure you won't betray your friends."
friend?
The Yu family really dares to put gold in their own faces.
Min Tingke deliberately followed his words and said, "Master Yu has seen the wind and waves after all. He speaks straightforwardly, which is different from those people who hide lies and lies." He said with admiration, "I don't know what Master Yu is doing.
How do you want to do business, and how do you divide the benefits?"
Bai Rongxuan suddenly became uneasy when she saw him looking very interested.
Does Uncle Six really want to do the cigarette business with the Yu family?
That thing is a vicious thing that destroys families and causes a lot of harm. The tragedy of Madoka's family was all caused by the smoke.
Bai Rongxuan was about to speak to dissuade her, but Min Tingke suddenly looked towards her.
The look in her eyes had a hint of warning, causing Bai Rongxuan to swallow the words that came to her lips.
Min Tingke smiled and winked at her.
Bai Rongxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Uncle Liu wanted her to calm down, right?
It seems that I am too worried. Uncle Six must be testing the Yu family.
Mr. Yu is also an old fox. How could he be easily tricked by Min Tingke? He stopped talking and refused to say anything. "We should wait until we meet Mr. Foreign to discuss these things. Mr. Liu, don't worry, I promise I won't treat you badly."
that is."
Min Tingke said, "Even if you want to keep it a secret, you still have to tell me how I need foreigners to cooperate with you. Otherwise, I don't know what to say when foreigners ask."
Mr. Yu still didn't want to say too much and looked at his two sons cautiously, hoping to get some useful advice from them.
Unfortunately, both sons are not very smart people, and they didn't respond for a while.
Mr. Yu was so angry that he had no choice but to whisper, "I couldn't say this originally, but seeing that Mr. Liu sincerely wants to cooperate, I will tell you a little bit. I need to borrow the power of the foreign masters. Secondly, I need to borrow
Their ship."
Min Tingke had expected to take advantage of the situation, but borrowing the boat surprised him a little.
But he still had a calm look on his face, as if this was an ordinary thing.
Mr. Yu couldn't see any clues and could only be secretly frightened.
Is Min Tingke pretending to be calm, or is he really calm?
If it's the latter, how many shady business relationships does he have with foreigners?
Mr. Yu is also a businessman himself, and there is a saying that he has long been familiar with - there are no permanent friends, only eternal interests.
The relationship between foreigners and Min Tingke is good. Firstly, the Min family has gained power and is now the leading wealthy family in Shanghai. Secondly, it is Min Tingke who can bring benefits to them. Otherwise, who would be unusually flattering to a half-year-old child?
When Mr. Yu thought about this, his guard against Min Tingke became a little more relaxed.
Min Tingke had already analyzed the Yu family's purpose in the shortest possible time.
Since it is borrowing a boat, it is natural to take the sea route, and the ultimate goal is only one - customs.
Nowadays, goods shipped from abroad have to go through customs. Not only do they have to pay high tariffs, but they also have to go through layers of inspections and deductions. If this relationship is not managed well, there will be no business at all. Foreigners cannot afford to offend them.
, the customs has always turned a blind eye to foreign cargo ships. It is through Min Tingke's relationship with foreigners that the Min family's foreign goods can pass through unimpeded, and with less tariffs, the profits will naturally be high.
