Chapter 1096 Happy cooperation (ninth update, please vote for me)

"It's not cost-effective." Chen Zhao said.

What is the approximate price of four tons of gold?

It's estimated to be around $160 million.

If Chen Zhao and Gu Lie cooperate, then they will get two tons of gold, which is about 80 million U.S. dollars, with a 50-50 split.

If it was true that he had earned 80 million US dollars, then Chen Zhao would go through hell and fire to try it.

But it is actually impossible to actually acquire 80 million US dollars.

This is shady gold.

Last time Chen Zhao's gold was handled by Risfar.

The agency fee at that time was very low, and it was Risfar's friendly price.

But the real agency fee is not a small amount.

The minimum is 30% agency fee.

This kind of super large amount clearance is 40% or even 50%.

In other words, after all his hard work, the agency made all the money.

Chen Zhao would rather get nothing than do such a thankless business.

Therefore, Chen Zhao refused very decisively.

don't want!

"Why?"

"Tens of millions of dollars are not worth my effort." Chen Zhao said frankly.

In fact, it was Chen Zhao who didn't want to work for an agency.

If it were simply to earn tens of millions of dollars, Chen Zhao would be happy to participate.

But Chen Zhao couldn't accept half of the money being given to unrelated people.

"Mr. Chen, I think you made a mistake. It's not just four tons of gold."

"More than four tons of gold? Didn't you say so yourself?"

"I'm talking about the treasures that have been in the big belly for four hundred years." Gu Lie said with twinkling eyes.

"Four hundred years of treasure? How much is that?"

"A conservative estimate is no less than $500 million."

After hearing this number, Chen Zhao began to get entangled again.

To be honest, Chen Zhao was tempted.

But if you want to convert these things into money, and then launder them from black to white, the intermediary fees will cost you a fortune.

This made Chen Zhao very painful.

The final possibility is that Chen Zhao can only get one-third of the value of everything.

Of course, Chen Zhao knew why intermediaries charged high prices.

In fact, they also took a big risk, but Chen Zhao still couldn't accept it.

"Wait a minute, I need to make a call before I can decide whether to accept this cooperation."

"Of course." Gu Lie was not worried that Chen Zhao would leak the news.

After all, she still believed in Chen Zhao's credibility.

It was also because of Chen Zhao's credibility that she chose to cooperate with him.

And not many people know the location of Nanqi Island.

And only she knows where the treasure is hidden.

Chen Zhao went outside the balcony and dialed West's phone number.

"West, are you in the hotel?"

"President, I took people out to play... Didn't you just say you wanted to go to bed, so I didn't call you."

"Let me ask you something."

"you say."

"If I find a pirate's treasure, can you give it to me at the actual price?" Chen Zhao asked.

"President...I don't launder money..."

"This item may exceed 200 million U.S. dollars." Chen Zhao said: "The agency fee can be used as funds for our association."

West was silent for a long time and finally said: "President, have you found the pirate's treasure?"

"Not yet, someone is looking for me to cooperate."

"President, you know, first of all, you have to find a buyer, and then you have to go through financial channels to make the money visible, and you will lose a lot of money."

"Just give me an accurate figure. If it is a fortune of 200 million U.S. dollars, how much I can get in the end."

"About $120 million."

“So how much does the association get?”

"About thirty million U.S. dollars, President, I quoted you a real figure."

"In other words, 25% of the US$200 million goes into other people's pockets?"

"President, this money cannot be saved. Although I am looking for formal channels, it is impossible for others to do things for us without any reason."

Chen Zhao thought about it and found that West was the safest and also the channel with the highest price.

There can be no channel that charges less than West.

Moreover, this money can also bring 30 million US dollars into the hands of the association.

Relatively speaking, it is also the most valuable channel for converting black to white.

After Chen Zhao hung up West's call, he walked into the living room.

"When will we set off?" Chen Zhao asked.

"You can't act yet." Gu Lie said.

"Why?"

"The geographical location of Nanqi Island is very special. It is submerged in the sea for half of the year. Only when the Pacific Ocean currents move westward and the water level drops, Nanqi Island will be exposed to the sea."

"Have to wait half a year?"

"No, the water level will be lowered by mid-March or early April at the latest, and we will be able to land on the island by then."

"Okay, you can notify me when the time comes. Do you have my contact information?"

"have."

"What preparations should I make?" Chen Zhao asked.

"Be prepared to fight, not only on land, but also in the water. We may face a huge test as we approach the sea area."

Chen Zhao is still looking forward to this.

Of course, Chen Zhao is not looking forward to fighting.

But gain.

After all, if everything goes well, then Chen Zhao can surely become a real billionaire.

In fact, judging from Chen Zhao's current assets, Chen Zhao is already a billionaire.

The total area of ​​Mirror Lake and the surrounding land is worth at least more than 40 million U.S. dollars, and the yacht is also worth more than 10 million U.S. dollars.

There is also a stake in Marina Restaurant, which is also worth more than 10 million US dollars.

Plus the money in the bank.

And soon, Alger would pay him another 20 million US dollars.

Chen Zhao's net worth is close to US$100 million.

However, Chen Zhao's bank savings have been emptied recently because he wants to build a new home.

And even after the house is built, the interior will cost millions of dollars.

Therefore, Chen Zhao's funds are relatively tight.

Now that there is such a cooperation project, which can bring in at least 100 million US dollars in revenue at a time, Chen Zhao is still very excited.

"Then it's settled."

"Then why don't we open a bottle of champagne to celebrate? I wish our cooperation a smooth and happy one."

"Let the wine stay and you can leave." Chen Zhao said with a smile.

"Forehead……"

"My girlfriend is pregnant, and I don't want to be drinking in a hotel room with another woman at this time."

"Okay." Gu Lie put the wine on the table helplessly: "By the way, this bottle of wine costs 50,000 US dollars and will be recorded in your account."

After saying that, Gu Lie turned around and left coolly.

"I'll go, fifty thousand dollars? I don't want this wine... Come back, come back..."

Unfortunately, Gu Lie ran too fast, and Chen Zhao could only bear the pain and leave behind 50,000 US dollars of champagne.

However, he was really reluctant to open this bottle of champagne.

He has never spent $50,000 on a bottle of wine in his life.

Even though he sells expensive wine himself, it doesn't mean that Chen Zhao can bear to spend 50,000 US dollars on drinking.
