Chapter 560 If we cooperate--
"My friend, friendship is friendship. Business is business. Please don't forget that you still need me 5,000 gold rubles." Arrozo raised the glass in his hand. After taking a small sip, his expression was as painful as swallowing a mouthful of poison, but indeed, a fire rose from the inside out, making people feel much more comfortable.
Andre, the most famous and powerful Russian businessman laughed loudly. The fat body shook out layers of waves with his laughter, which made Arrozzo frightened.
"Don't worry, dear Arozo, what kind of person I am Andre. The whole Nebuchu knows that my reputation is the best, and my business is also the biggest. I'm just temporarily having some difficulties in turnover. Don't worry, wait for my housekeeper to rush back with the carriages full of gold rubles. Nibchu, I'll give you enough money for the goods.
"I can completely trust you on this point, but I have a small problem and a bigger business. I wonder if you are interested?" Arozo loosened the blanket on his body with a smile and changed his posture comfortably.
Andre touched the beard on his chin and played with the beautiful crystal glass. A pair of eyes that squeezed the fat into thin slits flashed with greedy light. Without the business that Andre doesn't want to do, my friend, for a businessman, who will have a hard time with Huang Xun's gold? You said it, didn't you?
"Of course, in the eyes of our businessmen, interests are above all else!" Arrozo raised the glass in his hand excitedly and said to the largest and fattest Russian in Nibchu.
"Yes, dear friend, your words are so philosophical that they are simply to my heart. Cheers for the benefit!" Andre drank all the spirits in the glass in one gulp, and then picked up a small fork and stuffed a thick cold sausage into his mouth and chewed it. As he chewed, he said vaguely, "Dear friend, what kind of business is it?"
Looking at Andrea stuffing a large piece of cold and oily intestine into his mouth, Arrozo felt that he was so tired of it. Damn guy, no wonder he is so fat. It seems that he is really as greedy and delicious as that fat pig.
--------------------
The displeasure in his heart was well concealed by him. Arozo just picked up a small fork, picked a little caviar and put it in his mouth to feel the fascinating salty taste. Then he said lightly, "A bigger business means greater profit, but it is also accompanied by greater risk."
"Haha, dear Arrozzo, my Spanish friend, are you Spaniards so careful when doing business?" Andre couldn't help laughing, and his little eyes fell on Arrozzo's face again. As long as there is enough wealth, I believe that there are no dangers and risks in the world that can stop the brave Russians.
Andre's words made the Spanish businessman fall into deep thought. His fingers gently touched the beautiful crystal cup, making a crisp and pleasant sound, while Andre stuffed all kinds of delicious food into his bottomless mouth, but a pair of thin eyes kept paying attention to the expression of Arazzo. Turn into.
More than half a year ago, when Arrozzo appeared in Nibucchu with a batch of exquisite oriental goods, Andre, the richest and most powerful businessman in Nibuchu, bought all the goods at a high price.
Those exquisite porcelains, gorgeous silks, and those top-quality tea bricks wrapped in gold foil, and even cigarettes that have been heard of for a long time, but have never been bought by merchants in large quantities. Oh, praise God. At the thought of cigarettes, Andre couldn't help putting down the knife and fork, picked up the cigarettes with beautiful packaging on the table, and smoked. One came out and swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog beautifully.
These goods are all good goods that are difficult for Russian merchants to get in northern China. In the past, almost all good goods were only trafficked in the south. After Andre bought the goods sold by Arrozzo, he directly walked around the surrounding cities and sold them out at nearly twice the purchase price.
It didn't take long for Arrozo to bring a huge number of goods, and the Russians' usual greed and possessiveness, as well as the previous sweetness, made Andre do this business with Arrozzo again.
However, the quantity of goods this time was really a little large. In order to swallow the goods alone, Andre tried his best. In addition, Andre's own brother Valegin was the highest commander of Nibchu City. With his guarantee, Arrozo reluctantly allowed Andre to owe himself 5,000 gold rubles temporarily. No According to the regulations, it must be paid off after the beginning of spring next year, otherwise, the interest will be calculated according to the day.
After getting a large number of goods, Andre felt that these good products continued to be sold in sparsely populated Siberia and could not be sold at any good prices at all. Therefore, Andre simply shipped the goods to Moscow and St. Petersburg. In those places, they could definitely make higher profits.
And he also admires the Spanish businessman who can get such rich and high-quality goods from the Orientals. At least, the Russians have been doing business with the Orientals for hundreds of years, but no one can be like this Spanish businessman.
"I still have a batch of goods, the value... In short, it is very high. I know you, dear Andre, you have a good relationship and way in the Far East and in Siberia. I hope we can cooperate." Arrozo still seems to be a little hesitant.
"How much is it worth? I can buy it, and I can give you a more fair price. Andre took two mouthfuls of cigarettes fiercely, with endless greed and possession in his eyes, like a hungry wolf.
--------------------
"Mr. Andre, I believe in your character, but I also know that you have no money now." Arozo smiled and spread out his hand.
"No money, this is only temporary. By next spring, I will be able to buy from you with more gold rubles. Unless the value of your goods can buy Nibchu, otherwise, I believe that I have the ability. The corners of Andre's mouth turned up, and the merchant's unique cunning was hanging on his hairy and fat face.
"250,000 gold rubles." Arrozo picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth, leaned comfortably on the back of the sofa, looked at Andrea, and said faintly, as if he were talking about a trivial number.
Dang, the crystal cup in Andre's hand fell on the ground cup, and the newly filled liquor poured on the ground. His eyes that squeezed the fat into thin cracks suddenly stared, and his mouth hidden under the beard was open enough to stuff a huge ostrich egg.
"You, do you mean, 250,000 gold rubles?" Andre didn't even care that the liquor was sprinkled on the precious mink skin on his body. He squeezed out an ugly, even a squeaky smile on his face, and asked carefully.
"Yes, my friend, goods worth 250,000 gold rubles." Arozo looked at Andre's expression at this moment with the eyes of a city gold collar looking at the rich man in the countryside.
"God, my God, oh..." Andre felt that his heart almost jumped out of his fat chest, and he felt that he was about to be stunned by this extremely happy news. The goods of 250,000 gold rubles have a profit of at least 400,000 to 400,000 gold rubles. God, you are so merciful.
Just thinking about this number, Andre had an impulse to pick up a short fire and a shot at the Spanish merchant in front of him, and then occupy the goods. However, I'm just thinking about it. Although this is a vast and sparsely populated Siberia, this Spanish businessman is also very famous. At least, every time there are not only a lot of bodyguards around him, but also has terrible firepower.
All his property adds up to less than half of the value of these goods, no, or even one-third. Damn it, damn it. Andre feels like a Cossack thug who rushed into the bank with a fire. He killed a group of guards and opened the stone door of the vault, but found that it was in the vault. The golden ruble has been melted into an unmovable golden mountain, which is really close at hand, but far away.
"I want it all!" Andre roared, with red eyes, as if Arrozzo did not agree. At this moment, he was about to rush up and crush the Spanish businessman with his own weight.
"Dear Andre, do you have a cash of 250,000 gold rubles?" Arozo spread out his hands and blinked his shrewd gray pupils with an innocent face.
Andre's breathing seemed so rapid that he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word for a long time. He could only sit down on the sofa, but his eyes were still staring at Arazo, as if to burn two deep holes in his face with his eyes.
"Dear Andre, I know you don't, but it's not that we can't cooperate." Arazo elegantly cigaretted a cigarette for himself.
Hearing this, Andre jumped up again. With his weight of at least 250 pounds, he suddenly appeared in such an agile movement, which really shocked Arozo.
"How to cooperate, tell me, my dear Spanish brother, as long as you can let me get involved in this business, I, Andre, will never forget your kindness for the life."
"Actually, it's also very simple. I want to sell this batch of goods directly to Moscow..." Arozo easily spit out a smoke ring, and the corners of his mouth raised a strange arc. However, it is too far from here to Moscow, and the damn Cossack robbers are always pervasive. I lack delivery channels, but you have. Your brother, Your Excellency Brigadier General Walingjing, is very good at this line. If we cooperate..."
