Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Chapter 516 Situation in the Soviet Union

The plane landed at the international airport in Suguo Moco. Bervska and Valery were already waiting. When the plane stopped, they came directly, and the arranged convoy was already waiting.

Zhang Qianxiu stepped off the plane and laughed and said, “Mr. Bervska, Mr. Valery, it’s been a long time!”

Bervska and Valery walked up and said, “Mr. Zhang, there are a lot of people with you this time!”

Zhang Qianxiu smiled slightly: “Of course we have to be professional to make money. I don’t understand many things. We have to bring some professional people to solve the problem.”

The three of them got in the car for a while.

Bervska and the others brought a total of three cars, one car and two minibuses, all of which drove directly to the airport and the people could get on the car after they got off the plane.

Along the way, Zhang Qianxiu chatted with Valery and Bervška without a mouth, but looked at the streets outside.

Many homeless people have appeared on the street, and Zhang Qianxiu also saw two robberies during the period, both of which were looting.

When they arrived at the hotel, Bervska asked Zhang Qianxiu’s team to go to their rooms, let everyone wash up first, and then go to the restaurant for dinner.

Except for Zhang Qianxiu, the others are two people in one room, they are not far away, and it is convenient for communication.

It’s also comfortable to take a hot bath after working on a plane for more than nine hours.

Because of the time difference, Zhang Qianxiu and the others were still in the day when they arrived in the country of Su.

After taking a shower, everyone went to the restaurant to have dinner. Zhang Qianxiu, Bervska, and Valery sat at a table, and there was also Bervska’s translator.

The food is still very rich. They have beef stew, meatloaf, baked tomato with cheese, etc. What surprised Zhang Qianxiu most is the rice of Su Guofeng.

Looking at the fried rice, Zhang Qianxiu asked with a little surprise, “Is there anyone in Su State who eats rice? I always thought that you mainly rely on noodles.”

Bervska said: “People in some areas like to use rice as a staple food, but their approach is somewhat different from Mr. Zhang’s country.”

“Mr. Zhang tastes the rice of our Soviet country, is it to your appetite?”

Zhang Qianxiu said: “It looks a bit like our egg fried rice, but the ingredients in it seem to be different. I’ll try it.”

Bervska said: “I specifically urge the hotel to try to suit your tastes as much as possible, and I hope it won’t be too unpleasant.”

Zhang Qianxiu took a sip, and he didn’t feel any difference from domestic fried rice. The taste was quite good, especially the chili in it, which matched Zhang Qianxiu’s taste. He couldn’t help but praised: “It tastes good.”

After eating the same meal, Zhang Qianxiu said, “Two, shall we talk about business now or tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow! Mr. Zhang is tired from running around all day,” Bervska said.

Valery was more straightforward and said: “As long as Mr. Zhang is not tired, it is naturally best to have a chat today.”

Zhang Qianxiu said, “There is nothing tired of flying by plane, so let’s talk today!”

“The purpose of my coming this time is to make money, and both of you are very clear about it.”

Valery and Bervska just listened.

Zhang Qianxiu continued: “The business we are going to do is not a just thing that benefits the country and the people. It may cause some harm to ordinary people in your country to a certain extent.”

“But this is the situation now, even if we don’t do it, others will do the same.”

“I mainly want to do two things. The first is to take the opportunity to drive up prices and make money from it.”

“There is only one substance we are hyping up at present, and that is the food that is in short supply in the Soviet Union. Everyone has no money. You can not buy other things, but they will definitely have to eat.”

“So food is the best speculation, and at the same time, other people will also speculate. Everyone will rush to make money.”

“Secondly, I want to acquire some factories and companies with core technologies in the country.”

“In this part of the business, the investment time may be a bit long. If the two of you are afraid of risks and are unwilling to participate, you can help me and I will pay you.”

“The last point is that I need talents. If the two can find talents who are willing to go to our country, I can also pay them the corresponding remuneration.”

Valery asked: “Mr. Zhang, you have a lot to do this time.”

“How much are you going to invest? How much money did you bring?”

Zhang Qianxiu shook his head: “Not many, only a few million meters. It is not convenient for me to bring too much money.”

Both Valery and Bervska frowned, and a few million was not enough to stuff their teeth.

Zhang Qianxiu followed: “Valery, don’t you have a lot of wheat and rice to be transported there? You can directly transport them to Moco. We rent a warehouse and store them first, and we will sell them when the price comes up. That’s fine, then the money will be our operating capital.”

Valery said: “Then how do I explain to other people? Those guys above me are very afraid of accidents and don’t want to take risks at all. Otherwise, we won’t be transporting large quantities of food to your country at this time.”

Zhang Qianxiu said: “If you have shipped it, even if I buy it, I will pay Zhou Qin money in the country. Even if it is a normal transaction, the grain will be ours at that time.”

“There is no problem with this.” Valery said, “Since Boss Zhang has considered everything, I will do as well.”

Bervska asked: “Mr. Zhang, what do you need us to do? If you pay for the food, how much profit can we get?”

“After I get back to my capital, I only need 60% of the profit, and you share the rest. As for how you distribute it, I don’t care.”

Bervska and Valery looked at each other, and then said, “No problem!”

The two of them are naturally willing. They don’t have to deal with any money, and they can make 40% of the profit as long as they contribute. Even if one person is 20%, it is a huge profit.

Zhang Qianxiu said: “I am not familiar with the place where I was born in the country of Su. I don’t care about the channel of shipment. You two find a way to solve it, and at the same time you have to solve the problem of payment.”

“If the food is transported away and the money can’t be returned, I don’t need the profit, but you two have to compensate for my principal.”

Valery said: “Don’t worry, if you don’t get the money, we will never let them take the food away.”

The money back is one of the reasons Zhang Qianxiu came to them. Zhang Qianxiu was not familiar with his birthplace in the country of Su, and he really had conflicts with others. He didn’t have any advantage. It’s better to give a little profit and let Valery and Bervska deal with this problem. It’s solved.

Zhang Qianxiu nodded: “I don’t care how you operate. I don’t ask about specific matters. I only look at the reports and results.”

Bervska said with a smile: “It is refreshing to cooperate with Mr. Zhang!”

Zhang Qianxiu said: “Let’s make money together when we have money!”

“In addition to being responsible for the shipment, the two of you are also responsible for building momentum. Which city we want to drive up the price of food, you will release the news in which city, saying that there is a shortage of food. As for the reasons for the shortage of food, the two of you can think about it.”

“As long as ordinary people and small businesses really think that there is a shortage of food, the price of food will definitely rise.”

Valery said: “Neither of us has a direct relationship in this regard.”

Belvska said: “I know someone who works as the editor-in-chief of a newspaper.”

“However, if you ask him to help build momentum, you may have to give him a portion of the profit.”

Zhang Qianxiu emphasized: “I don’t care about this. I want 60% of the profit. If you want to find someone else to help, you have to divide the profit. You two will discuss it yourself.”

Bervska asked: “Mr. Zhang, how much food do you plan to collect?”

Zhang Qianxiu said, “This is about to ask Valery to see how much food they plan to transport recently, how much they sell, and how much I will collect.”

Bervska looked at Valery.

Valery said: “At least three million tons of rice and 10 million tons of wheat.”

Belvska was taken aback and couldn’t help asking: “There is such a shortage of food in the country now, where do you get so much food?”

“War reserve food!” Valery said: “They hadn’t dared to move this one before. After August, everyone knew that the Soviet Union was in chaos, so they were bolder.”

“No one knows what it will be like in the future. It’s better to take advantage of it now. So they emptied several storage warehouses. The granary looked full. The bottom was full of stones, sand, and soil, only the top one. The layer is food.”

“Some granaries are emptied and left alone. No one cares about them anyway.”

Bervska took a breath: “If this is a war, what will you eat?”

Valery said: “So, we’d better pray not to fight; many arsenals have also been sold out.”

The lean camel is bigger than the horse. Although the official state of the Soviet Union has been rotted like this, their main family is still there. The core military equipment that is already in service is still sold by no one. Basically they are kept in the warehouse.

Zhang Qianxiu didn’t say a word, he was also thinking about the current situation of Su Guo.

According to Valery, the situation is worse than Zhang Qianxiu thought.

But thinking about the situation in the State of Su, it seems not surprising that something ridiculous happened.

The Soviet Union itself is a large agricultural country, and its grain output is not low, but now ordinary people can’t afford to eat. What’s more ridiculous is that the Soviet Union is still assisting abroad.

Bervska was silent for a while, and calculated in his heart the benefits of more than 10 million tons of grain. After a long time, he raised his head and said to Valery: “Of our 40% of profits, we share half of them. To my friends from the newspaper, he can help us publish’news’ in any city in the country and help us drive up prices.”

Valery thought about it for a moment, and said, “Then how do we divide the two?”

Bervska said: “Look at how much is left in the end. If there is not much left, it will not be enough for the two of us. Even if we quit, we won’t blame us if we want to come to Mr. Zhang.”
