Chapter 107 Golden Lily From World War II
As someone shook his head lightly, another person sighed softly. The atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly sad and melancholy.
The silence was heavy and palpable, with immense pressure in the air.
After a long and tense pause, Qian Haifei spoke solemnly, breaking the stillness.
"Everyone, buying gold is the top priority for our company at this stage. We must do everything in our power to make it happen. If you have any resources or channels available to you, use them as quickly as possible. Whoever manages to purchase and bring in gold will be rewarded with one yuan and one gram."
The reward was substantial, an absolute prize. This announcement caused an uproar in the conference room, with a buzz of excited discussion filling the air. Everyone was eager to win the reward, and jealousy was palpable.
"This is not a small reward at all," one person exclaimed.
"One yuan for one gram means that buying dozens of kilograms of gold could earn us tens of thousands of dollars in rewards!" Another man said.
"Under the weight of such a prize, there must be someone brave enough to take the initiative," another person added.
"I hope someone can purchase dozens or even hundreds of kilograms of gold."
Another person said.
.........….
After a lengthy discussion, the meeting room fell silent, and Qian Haifei, the boss, finally spoke up.
"I have already promised the reward. Everyone, please act quickly and try to buy the gold we need,"
Tang Libing, who had been in the industry for a long time, was also taken aback.
He had never seen the boss give such a generous reward before, and he began to think about any unused channels to buy gold, even if it was just a few dozen kilograms.
Meanwhile, Liu Yong was driving his large G towards Qian Shengsheng Company with a feeling of great luck. He had just harvested an incredible amount of gold - 12 tons and 500 kilograms, to be exact.
He couldn't believe there was so much gold in this shipwreck from World War II. As he drove, he began to consider a possibility that he had read about online - the "Golden Lily" plan implemented by RB during the war.
This plan involved searching for gold and silver in the occupied areas of the Yan Kingdom.
According to the information that Liu Yong had read, RB had searched for over 6,000 tons of gold during World War II in Yan, not to mention the significant amount of silver they had found.
It occurred to Liu Yong that this sunken transport ship was likely supposed to carry the gold back to RB, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, it sank with over a dozen tons of gold on board.
As he thought about the rumored "Golden Lily" project, Liu Yong began to piece together why there was so much gold in this particular transport ship.
About twenty minutes before his destination, Tang Living received a call from Liu Yong. The two had previously dealt with each other, and Liu Yong was looking to sell the last tens of kilograms of gold.
"Mr. Tang, are you in the company?" Liu Yong asked.
Tang Libing quickly returned to his office and answered the call. "Oh, it's Liu Yong. What's the matter?" he asked.
Liu Yong sensed that Tang Libing needed to be in a better mood, and his response needed more enthusiasm. He asked, "Mr. Tang, you seem in a bad mood. I have some gold to sell now. Is it convenient for me to come over?"
Suddenly, Tang Libing's mood changed. He had required gold, and the opportunity to buy it was timely.
"Convenient, very convenient, just come to my office," he eagerly replied.
Liu Yong said he would arrive at the company in about twenty minutes.
Tang Libing felt much better and hoped that Liu Yong had tens of kilograms of gold to sell. He even anticipated a reward of tens of thousands of dollars.
Excited, Tang Libing called his assistant, Xiao Li, to go to the gate and pick up Liu Yong, bringing him straight to his office. He imagined greeting Liu Yong at the entrance personally, but he was unaware that Liu Yong was actually coming to sell more than a dozen tons of gold.
When Liu Yong arrived, he parked his car and wrapped the gold brick sample he brought with waste newspaper.
As he exited the vehicle, a young man approached him and introduced himself as Xiao Li, Tang Libing's assistant. Xiao Li led Liu Yong to Tang Libing's office, and at the door, he said,
"Mr. Liu, our Mr. Tang is inside. You can knock on the door and go in."
Liu Yong nodded and raised his hand to knock on the door.
After pushing the door and entering, Tang Libing was already waiting inside. The two met, shook hands, and exchanged pleasantries and politeness.
After sitting down on the sofa, Liu Yong also put the gold brick on the table, and Tang Libing immediately looked at the gold brick.
He asked: "Mr. Liu, is this a gold brick?"
Liu Yong said: "Let's see how much you can pay per gram."
It is undoubtedly gold, but Liu Yong does not know how pure it is. It may be 18K gold or 22K gold. It should not be pure gold or what kind of pure gold.
Tang Libing is a professional.
He opened the newspaper that wrapped the gold brick, looked at the gold brick, weighed it in his hand, felt the weight, and said:
"The weight should be 10 kilograms, and the purity should be close to three nines. Of course, More accurate results require specialized instruments for measurement."
Hearing this, Liu Yong was secretly happy.
Unexpectedly, the purity of this gold brick is so high that it is close to three nines. I always thought there were only two nines, and three were pure gold.
The purity is high, and the price is, of course, higher.
Liu Yong asked: "Mr. Tang, what is your current purchase price for gold?"
Tang Libing replied: "The last time we cooperated, how about the price last time, 380 yuan per gram."
Liu Yong quickly shook his head, "That's impossible, that was two months ago. At present, the price of gold has increased compared to two months ago. You must add a little more."
Tang Libing said: "The international gold price has indeed increased to a certain extent, but our purchase price has not been adjusted significantly. How about it, how about 385?"
Liu Yong still shook his head, "The price is still a little low."
Tang Libing asked, "Mr. Liu, how much do you think it will cost per gram?"
Liu Yong didn't hold back and said straight to the point: "At least 420 yuan, and it can't be a penny lower than this price, otherwise, I won't sell it."
What!
420 yuan, Tang Libing glanced at Liu Yong and smiled wryly:
"We have never bought gold at such a high price, and this price is absolutely impossible."
Liu Yong smiled.
Then said: "Mr. Tang, what if I have more than a thousand gold bricks instead of this one?"
