“Mr. William, Mr. Richard, I’ve thought about it for a long time. I can’t get this money, and I don’t dare to get it. I can’t do this business.” Long Zu decisively refused.
If you continue to cut off, you will be subject to chaos.
These two individuals are both of high status; if things really escalate, even the Dragon Ancestor will face considerable trouble.
Of course, it wasn't that the Dragon Ancestor was afraid of them.
Instead, it avoids trouble; who would want to fight all day long?
Why not just lie at home and collect rice? Isn't that great?
Suddenly.
Williams and Richard's faces darkened.
Especially Williams.
Although the Dragon Ancestor was his god of wealth, from a certain perspective, he was the real boss of Hong Kong.
This is why Williams dared to let Richard come and cooperate with Dragon Ancestor.
Since he dared to accept this kickback, he must be confident that he could control the Dragon Ancestor.
But this young man seemed to be more troublesome than he had imagined.
However, after much thought, it seemed that he had no way to deal with the Dragon Ancestor, and the two of them were frowning with worry.
The Dragon Ancestor revealed a faint, cold smile.
It's impossible to sell noodles in Hong Kong; they have maximum control over the flour within their territory.
This is something the Dragon Ancestor can do; how could he break his own rules?
At that time, they won't be able to establish their authority.
How could his underlings possibly obey him?
Moreover, as the times become more advanced, Long Zu knew what would happen to those who lost their fans in the 90s.
One by one, they left the flour market, either heading to Southeast Asia or to the high seas.
They either have to switch to legitimate business like Xiang Huaqiang, there's absolutely no other way out.
At least that's the case in China.
"Gentlemen, please don't be in a hurry. As you know, I've set rules in Hong Kong: no one is allowed to wander around in your own territory. Rules are rules, and bottom lines are bottom lines. No one can change those rules," Long Zu said domineeringly.
However, suddenly, the Dragon Ancestor's tone changed, and he said calmly.
"However... I have a connection in South Korea. There's a guy there named Tony. If you're interested in doing business in this area, I can introduce you to him."
"Moreover, his business is not limited to South Korea. His territory also includes the coastal areas of South Korea and Japan. If you, Mr. Richard, can cooperate with him, I believe the profits he brings you will be far more than what a small place like Hong Kong can achieve. He will definitely make you very rich."
The Dragon Ancestor spoke with absolute certainty.
Williams and Richard were immediately taken aback, somewhat horrified.
Williams said with some doubt.
"Mr. Long, how can I know if what you're saying is true or false, and whether this person is reliable enough?"
“If it’s true, I think you, Mr. Chad, would be able to accept it.”
Richard, who was standing next to him, nodded quickly upon hearing this.
What was his motivation?
It's just about making money.
As long as Williams and Dragon can reach an agreement.
If he can finally find a place to make money, then that's fine.
Long Zu chuckled and said, "It seems Mr. Richard is a reasonable person. Making money is something you can do anywhere."
"You can sell noodles in Hong Kong, and you can do it outside. Does all the noodles you sell end up in your own pocket?"
"As for that person, don't worry, he's absolutely reliable. Although I don't have a very good relationship with him, I helped him when he was in trouble back then, so he's still willing to give me that much face," the Dragon Ancestor said calmly.
Since things had come to this point, Richard naturally couldn't say anything more.
After all, he is still not as high-ranking as Williams.
Unless he is successfully elected director in the next term.
Otherwise, in front of Dragon Ancestor and Williams.
He's just a nobody.
At Long Zu's glance, Williams immediately understood and said with a smile to Richard beside him:
"You should go back first. I still have things to discuss with Mr. Long."
Upon hearing this, Richard stubbed out his cigarette, nodded, and left. He knew there must be some deal between Dragon Ancestor and Williams.
He didn't know what kind of deal it was, nor was it something he should know.
After Richard left, Williams frowned deeply and looked at the Dragon Ancestor with a puzzled expression, asking:
"Mr. Long, is there something you want to discuss with me privately?"
“Mr. William, please relax and have some tea. It’s not that we have to keep this from Mr. Richard. If things are settled, we can tell him later. There’s no rush,” Long Zu said with a smile.
"Speak," Williams said. "If it's just a small business deal, I'm not interested. As for trouble... just mention my name, and in Hong Kong, I don't think there's anything you can't do. As for outside matters, you know I have no right to interfere." Williams flatly rejected any potential demands from the Dragon Ancestor.
After all, the two sides are partners.
I can help with something small.
If external forces are involved.
Williams won't get involved in this mess.
“Mr. William, I think you know, as I just said, flour is certainly profitable, but isn’t there something else that comes before flour?”
"I'd like to ask Mr. William if he'd be interested in joining?"
The Dragon Ancestor's words were astonishing.
Williams stood there dumbfounded.
The teacup in his hand remained suspended in mid-air, not moving for a long time.
He stared blankly at the Dragon Ancestor and asked incredulously.
"Are you telling the truth? Do you actually have such a channel?"
Not to mention him, even the Williams family couldn't get access to such a channel.
After all, there aren't many families in the John Bull region that are truly capable of engaging in the arms trade.
Even the United States, which started with the arms trade, is only controlled by four major families.
Although the Williams family is powerful, they are not that formidable. Their true strength lies in the number and status of their upper echelons.
This is why he was able to be sent to Hong Kong to do such a lucrative job.
Ordinary people don't have connections, but they can't get in.
The Dragon Ancestor nodded with a smile and said.
“I have a road in the mainland where a large amount of obsolete weapons and equipment are stored. I believe that if these weapons and equipment are resold, they will bring in terrifying profits.”
He does not intend to directly sell those advanced equipment from the mainland.
If possible, cooperation can also bring greater profits.
However, this also means that secrets have been leaked.
The Dragon Ancestor was thinking about a steady, long-term approach, not about consuming everything at once.
"Hehe, Mr. Long, I think you're overthinking it. What advanced weapons are there on the mainland? They're not worth much, let alone obsolete ones. Even if they were sold, I don't think there would be much profit," Williams said dismissively.
It had also heard about the military strength of the rabbit side.
Although for some reason, the level of all aspects has suddenly skyrocketed in the past year or two.
But it still can't compare to these truly powerful nations.
However, this allowed the Dragon Ancestor to obtain a large amount of weaponry.
He was still very surprised.
The young man before him was becoming increasingly unfathomable, making him unable to understand him.
“Mr. Williams, you may not be aware of the current military strength of China. Although it cannot compare with the US or Russia, it is no longer the rabbit it once was. Moreover, the weapons that have been phased out are not sold to the US, but to the African continent. As you know, the market in the African continent has an unlimited demand for arms.” Long Zu said unhurriedly.
Black State.
Upon hearing this, Williams' eyes lit up.
This is indeed a good sales channel. Most of the weapons used in the Black region are relatively outdated, but despite their outdated nature, their demand for weapons is enormous.
Moreover, there is an urgent need for inexpensive weapons.
Therefore, as long as they can be resold to Black State, they can guarantee that the inventory will be cleared out quickly.
As for profit, as long as the volume is large enough.
