To turn land in the Far East into something valuable, many people need to work together to fabricate lies.

Lies are beautiful; otherwise, how could they be so deceptive?

Many things require unconventional methods to operate.

To recruit people, you need to keep giving them gifts.

Take photos and record audio.

Keep it as a souvenir, otherwise how can it behave obediently?

It must be said that those Japanese devils were quite shrewd in doing this kind of work.

It carries a wildness and ruthlessness.

Zhao Shanhai was constantly buying land and building relationships; the Japanese were also making the subsequent plans.

Resources were scarce and expensive in the Far East, and life was quite difficult.

Money is very important to them, and many people have lost their way under the onslaught of gifts.

Even if there are other motives, those are handled by the G family. It has nothing to do with them personally.

It was under this ideology that, a few years later, the country collapsed and split into many other countries.

They are fed up with the system here.

Xing Baohua was trying to capitalize on this mentality; in fact, he was taking a huge gamble, betting that the people of the Far East were not steadfast.

The large-scale land purchases by the R-funded Far East investment group have also attracted the attention of those in Red Square.

Given the current public sentiment and the sluggish economy, it's a good thing that someone is coming to invest, especially since they're bringing in cash to acquire land.

The polar bears are just like us, they also lack foreign exchange!

Xing Baohua raised 3.8 billion US dollars using private widow's funds. Sixty percent of that was raised by wealthy people in Hong Kong.

A single call from a wealthy family, and I'm offered a project that guarantees profits.

Those delivering the money were all rushing around, afraid of missing the bus if they were even a step too slow.

Hong Kong isn't a big place, but there are so many rich people there.

Zhao Shanhai has almost finished buying up the land there, and has kept $800 million in hand for emergencies. The next step is to use it as collateral for future investments.

No one believed that this country would collapse, and no one believed that the money here would be devalued a thousandfold.

The subsequent operations were also very simple: Zhao Shanhai used US dollars to buy land.

You can get the rubles you want in a short period of time after taking out a mortgage loan.

Once the rubles are received, they will be exchanged for US dollars through a third-party bank abroad.

This is equivalent to the money going around in circles and then coming back to you.

The losses are the initial investment, including gifts, food, drinks, and bank fees.

Don't underestimate this amount of money; it can amount to a huge sum if the amount is large enough.

Maximizing the profits from the purchased land is still a scheme, so it involves bribing many people who want to make money to put on a show.

I bought the land for 20 million, and told the bank staff who came to survey and explore that the land is now worth 100 million. They said it wasn't much, and that I only needed an allocation of 80 million US dollars worth of rubles.

The people sent by the bank weren't going to do it! They tried sending gifts, once wasn't enough, twice.

We're all just doing jobs, there's no need to be so serious. The money all belongs to the government. Let's all make money together.

The wasteland was transformed into a treasure trove, all thanks to the performance.

There are specific techniques involved in obtaining loans, and Xing Baohua has already explained to Zhao Shanhai how to negotiate and how to proceed.

Loan term, repayment method, etc.

Borrow rubles, and repay with rubles.

The lender was happy with it; it was an 80 million loan over five years, with annual interest of over 2.4 million, which wasn't low, calculated at 5.6%.

The agreement stipulates that only interest will be paid each year, and the principal will be paid off in the last year.

The central bank of the Xiong Kingdom was delighted with this multi-billion dollar deal, as it was essentially exchanging foreign exchange for their money.

We must lend money, and we must provide enough. If we don't have enough, we must notify the factory to print a new batch immediately.

See? When people get arrogant, they can be inhumane.

Xing Baohua sat in his office chair, lit a cigarette, and pondered how to wrap things up and how HSBC would respond.

It seems I need to register several more companies as fronts.

In the following days, Xing Baohua was busy meeting with some foreign investors.

They're all quite small, far smaller than behemoths like Mitsui. It's so satisfying to fall into their trap in one go.

It saves time, effort, and trouble.

After meeting with those investors, Xing Baohua didn't rush to find Mitsui Tousaburo; he decided to put it aside for now. The other party also knew who he was meeting.

The company was like a sieve, and Xing Baohua didn't know how it had turned out this way.

Would you call this a case of good intentions gone wrong?

Xing Baohua inspected the work of the telecommunications department again.

The foreigners' work progress... well, how should I put it? Not many of them are in a hurry. Even if you pay them to work overtime, they still have to be subservient to you.

There's nothing you can do; they've already developed that habit, and you can't force them, otherwise they'll just quit and won't do it for you anymore.

Xing Baohua wasn't in a hurry before, but now that there's a huge order, he wants to speed things up and has to find a way to get Ericsson, Alcatel, and Nokia to work overtime!

Nokia is the most time-consuming of them all.

Not only did the project start late, but the work itself was like sharpening a gun.

Xing Baohua found the person in charge and asked if it could be done quickly by subcontracting the signal tower project.

Nokia's foreman shook his head, saying he was worried that if the work was subcontracted, the signal quality wouldn't be guaranteed, and they would have to come back to fix it, which would be even more troublesome.

Xing Baohua then called the manager at Nokia to discuss the issue of expediting the production.

The best solution is to increase funding and send more people.

There's nothing better than this.

Xing Baohua will not tell the companies he works with that he is about to get a big order.

When faced with the prospect of profit, these people will communicate with clients individually.

This will also bring more trouble to Xing Baohua.

While this guy was busy inspecting the progress of the project, Mitsui Tousaburo seemed to be getting impatient.

He took the initiative to meet with Xing Baohua.

It has indeed been more than ten days. It would be nice to meet and chat.

"Mr. Xing, I apologize for bothering you again," Mitsui Fujisaburo said with a half bow, while his two assistants behind him bowed even more deeply.
