Chapter 71 Gambling Agreement

He took out all the boxes from the space and asked Locke, who was guarding the garage door, to move them into the car. Seeing that the two of them had only taken two boxes to the car after a long time, they had no choice but to roll up their sleeves and get them in person!

Fang Yuanshan grabbed the bulge of the box with both hands, picked up the box with a "hey" and walked to the car and put it in the back seat. Then he moved it several times in a row again before moving all the boxes onto the car.

The two people on the side looked at each other, and Yuan Gaoyang said embarrassedly: "Boss, your strength..."

Fang Yuanshan laughed and said, "Hey, I am born with divine power, you can't compare to it."

Seeing the edges and corners of the wooden box pressing white marks on the leather seats, he felt very distressed. He had to be a coolie after buying the car in less than a day, which made him speechless, "I knew I would buy a pickup truck first!"

The 6-wheeled Hummer is awesome, with 10 boxes of gold worth more than 4,000 kilograms. With three big men, the 6.2at automatic transmission starts without any delay, and the power is even more surging.

When I arrived at the Rio branch of Citibank, the president inside was already looking forward to it at the door. Seeing the black Hummer coming, he immediately played the role of a car boy at the door regardless of his identity.

When he got out of the car, he saw the white middle-aged man who helped him open the door and stretched out his hand and said, "I am Fang Yuanshan, I wonder if you are?"

"I am Cameron Hodge, the president of the Rio branch. Welcome to come!" As he said, he held Fang Yuanshan's hand vigorously.

The president's excessive enthusiasm made Fang Yuanshan confused. In fact, he occupied Taylor's light. The sudden arrival of the director scared the president and thought he had done something wrong, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the mining tycoon!

When he heard Taylor say that a friend was coming to the bank to deposit money, the president immediately ran to the door and waited.

"Hello, Mr. Hodge, that's right. Mr. Taylor and I have a deal. All the transactions are in the car. Can you please ask the two staff members to come and help?"

President Hodge immediately called two security personnel. After seeing the box so heavy, he asked someone to drive a forklift and deliver it directly to the door of the underground vault behind.

Fang Yuanshan was worried about following along the way, and it was no wonder that he was concerned about it. This was not just one or two dollars, it was something worth 100 million US dollars, and he didn't cry even if he had a box missing.

All the way was delivered to the bank's vault gate without any danger. Taylor had already waited there. When he saw him coming, he said, "Fang, everything is here, right?"

"Yeah, yes!"

Since the two boxes of gold bars had left Taylor's sight, I can only recalculate it now. Fang Yuanshan next to me wished he could slap his two big mouths. After a long time of doing it, he had to recalculate it. I had known that I wouldn't have done so many things.

Hodge called four bank staff and several people counted the batch of gold together. In less than an hour, the result came out: 2095654.436 grams.

Seeing the calculation results, Fang Yuanshan nodded and said that it was right. Taylor said, "The price of the New York Gold Exchange is now at $1,026 per ounce. Except for the purity, I will give you $1,010 per ounce. What do you think?"

Fang Yuanshan quickly calculated in his mind, and 2.1 million grams, about 70,000 ounces, was converted into US dollars, which was equivalent to more than 70 million US dollars. After all, he still felt that he had lost a lot! ~

This year's gold price has fallen sharply due to the financial crisis, and it has been a low point in recent years. Fang Yuanshan felt it was not cost-effective to sell this batch of gold during this period. After thinking about it, he said to Taylor: "Mr. Taylor, I have a request. I wonder if you would like to listen?"

"What request, let me hear it?"

"It's true that this year's gold price has been greatly affected by the international financial crisis. I think the price of this batch of gold has been far underestimated."

When he heard him mention the financial crisis, Taylor immediately curiously said, "Fang, what suggestions do you have?"

"I want to sign a bet agreement with you, I wonder if you are willing to do so?"

"Oh? You are so confident that this batch of gold will definitely be a premium!"

Taylor thought about it for a while before saying, "I understand what you mean. Due to the recent international environment, the price of gold must have dropped significantly."

"But this batch of gold is actually dispensable to me. I can tell you that I have been discussing cooperation with Vale recently and will occupy a lot of cash, so I also mortgage your batch of gold to Citibank."

After hearing his words, Fang Yuanshan secretly curled his lips, "I still admire you. Look, the capitalist's face has been exposed again. What is dispensable? Why don't you want to come here for a long time?"

After thinking about it, he said, "Do you have any suggestions?"

"If you think the price of this batch of gold is undervalued, do I have an idea you want to listen to it?"

After seeing Fang Yuanshan nodding, the two of them walked to the long chair on the side and sat down. Taylor began to tell him his ideas. After listening to Taylor's plan, Fang Yuanshan fell silent and calculated the gains and losses in his mind.

His so-called idea was to focus on his cash. It turned out that the cooperation Taylor was discussing with Vale recently was actually the operating rights of the mining area.

In the northeast of the Brazilian Plateau, there is a region that stores a large amount of iron, manganese, copper, tin, platinum group, bauxite and gold, which is the world-famous "Caracas". It is currently the largest iron-producing mining area in the world and one of the two largest iron ore areas in Brazil.

The Caragas Mining Area is located in the tropical jungle of Para state in northern Brazil and is currently solely owned by the Brazilian Vale mining company CVRD.

But before this, the American steel company first discovered this mineralized area and later developed it in cooperation with Brazil, each accounting for 50% of the shares.

In 1977, due to the rise in energy prices, the US Steel Company made the decision to withdraw its investment, and this major decision-making mistake also became an eternal pain in the steel Company's heart.

Later facts also proved that the short-sightedness of the US Steel Company, and the prices of various international ores soared. US Steel Company also became buyers from the initial seller, and its annual purchase volume with Vale reached 30% of the total annual volume, which has to be said to be a joke~

Taylor's goal is the cooperative management rights of the "South Ferris Ridge" in the Caracas mining area. Both parties each invested 1 billion US dollars to carry out in-depth development of the South Ferris Ridge.

However, this fund was invested in three years. The two parties agreed to receive the first fund within three months, with a total of 100 million US dollars, and subsequent additional investments will be made.

Taylor's roughly means that he and Fang Yuanshan sign a bet agreement, and then mortgage the gold to the bank, and Fang Yuanshan uses this money to cooperate with him to develop South Ferris Ridge.

It is said to be cooperative development, but he only holds a small part of the shares and has no decision-making power, only shares will be distributed dividends.

After understanding what this little old man meant, Fang Yuanshan suddenly became angry again! ~
