Chapter 951 I am here, and the gold is there

You know, as an internationally accepted hard currency, gold is a strategic reserve resource in any country.

Even the economic strength of a country, in the final analysis, does not depend on the value of the country's currency, but on the size of its gold reserves.

Because once a war breaks out, currency is likely to become waste paper, and only gold is truly recognized by all humans and the entire international community.

Even now, the global economic system is still based on the gold standard.

The so-called gold standard refers to gold as the basic settlement unit.

Therefore, a large amount of gold is definitely not something that a single individual or company can obtain. This thing is a national strategic resource. No country will allow too much gold to appear in the private sector. Once it falls into the hands of interested people, it is likely to destabilize the economic system.

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Wanjun was silent for a moment.

Then she did not continue to ask Li Jin about the source of the gold.

"Does it have to be mortgaged to Neon's bank?" Zhao Wanjun asked.

Li Jin said without hesitation: "This point cannot be compromised. It must be Neon's bank, and you are also responsible for converting the mortgaged Japanese yen into US dollars or Chinese currency for me."

Zhao Wanjun was silent for a longer time this time.

A few minutes passed before Zhao Wanjun said again: "How much do you plan to mortgage for 200 tons of gold?"

"According to the current market price, gold is US$315 per ounce. I can mortgage it at US$280 per ounce for three months," Li Jin said.

"The price is no problem, and I have the channels, but it takes time." Zhao Wanjun said with certainty.

Li Jin was secretly surprised. It seemed that Zhao Wanjun's energy was greater than he thought.

"I can give you time, but only within 24 hours." Li Jin said.

"..."

Zhao Wanjun was silent for a while, and then she heard her scream: "Li Jin, are you kidding me if you stay up until midnight?"

Li Jin smiled bitterly and said, "Why am I teasing you? Every word I tell you is true."

"According to the price of US$280 per ounce, converted into Japanese yen, it is 29400 yen, 200 tons of gold, a full 2000 billion yen! It must be done within 24 hours. Do you regard me as a god or a neon leader?"

"After the project is completed, 5 million will be paid."

Li Jin's words immediately silenced Zhao Wanjun's complaints.

"2000 billion yen, a transaction of almost 263 billion Chinese coins, and I only got 5 million?"

"If it's too little, I'll pay you the interest, and I'll share more with you?" Li Jin joked.

"...you bastard!"

"And this 5 million will also take three months to give to you. You know, I am short of money now." Li Jin said without changing his expression and without a beat.

Zhao Wanjun was silent for a while.

"I'm very satisfied with the remuneration. A three-month delay is not a big problem. After all, your roots are still in China and you can't escape."

Li Jin smiled and said: "That's it, who dares to default on business with you, Miss Zhao?"

Zhao Wanjun ignored Li Jin's teasing and said seriously: "But the time is too tight."

"I came to you just because it's difficult. Why should I bother you with such a trivial matter?" Li Jin flattered me.

"Otherwise, how could you spare 5 million to do this?"

Zhao Wanjun said bitterly.

"You wait for my news, I have to confirm it before I can give you an answer."

After saying that, Zhao Wanjun hung up the phone directly.

Half an hour later, Li Jin entered Chinese airspace and his cell phone rang.

"Where is the goods now?" Zhao Wanjun asked directly.

"On the high seas outside Neon territorial waters." Li Jin replied.

"Have you been prepared for a long time?" Zhao Wanjun said meaningfully as if he had discovered some big secret.

"Such a big matter cannot be decided with a slap on the forehead."

Li Jin smiled and said, "How's it going? Is it successful?"

"At dawn tomorrow, people from Neon Central Bank and insurance companies will come to inspect the goods. You have to arrange for someone to receive them."

"Once the inspection is completed, this batch of gold needs to be sealed in the Neon Central Bank. Of course, the ownership is still yours, unless you cannot repay the loan after three months. In addition, the interest will increase by 40%."

Li Jin frowned and said, "40%?"

"Too much? Then I have no choice. We are pressed for time. The other party takes this seriously, and the lion opens its mouth."

"Haha, 3 months' interest, 40%, at least an increase of tens of millions, okay, since they dare to ask for it, I dare to give it to them."

"Promise them, I will send you the address, and let them send someone to inspect the goods tomorrow. But I have to go with someone."

Li Jin's words seemed to Zhao Wanjun as a matter of course, "No problem, after all you are the owner of the goods, but you have to hurry up and be in place before going to work at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

"no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Li Jin looked at Liu Jun and said: "Ajun, I have one thing for you to do. When the plane arrives at Asami Airport, you can take the plane directly to Neon overnight and go to the Tokyo pier. Wait, you are responsible for contacting people from Neon Central Bank and insurance companies on my behalf."

Liu Jun hesitated and said, "I can go, but I'm afraid I won't do it well."

“There’s nothing that can’t be done.”

Li Jin smiled and said: "The gold is genuine gold. There can be no problems. You don't have to worry about anything. Just be responsible for keeping an eye on the safety of this batch of gold. Until you see them sealing the gold in Neon with your own eyes." Central bank and treasury, you can come back at that time.”

Liu Jun nodded and said: "Okay, I will take care of it."

"Thank you for your hard work." Li Jin patted Liu Jun on the shoulder and said.

"But Brother Jin, when did you buy so much gold?" Liu Jun asked curiously.

"It started when I entered Dow Jones. To be precise, from the first day when Jin Qingtian Investment was established, I bought gold futures and gold spot at the same time."

"I collect gold wherever there is from all over the world. Most of it is collected from the black market. The price I paid for this batch of gold is 20% higher than the market price. However, if the plan succeeds, everything will be It’s worth it.” Li Jin said softly.

"Brother Jin, have you been planning for today since then?" Liu Jun said in shock.

"That's not true. At that time, what I was thinking more about was that once I failed completely, this batch of gold that no one knew about would be the capital for me to turn around. But now there are places that need it more, so I was moving forward the escape route. Take it out and put it on the gambling table as a bargaining chip."

With that said, Li Jin joked to Liu Jun: "So now you control my fortune and life."

Li Jin was joking, but Liu Jun took it seriously. He said seriously: "Brother Jin, don't worry, I'm here, and the gold is here."
