Cross-Picard frowned slightly.

"Mr. Qin, 50% of the shares are the bottom line of our family. Daniel paid for this with his life, and the reason why Daniel is able to fight with his life is the mercenaries hired by our family with high salaries. And you are just sitting back and enjoying the gains." Cross -

Picard has already begun to go straight to the point.

If you are shameless, then you are shameless.

This is a gold mine, worth billions of dollars.

If all of this is mined, it will be a huge fortune for the Picard family.

Of course, it's not just about wealth.

After all, the gold mine will be mined out sooner or later. If the Picard family spends seven or eight of these billions of dollars, they can make back the money in ten years.

What really interests Picard is that if this gold mine is mined at the junction of four countries including Uganda and Ethiopia, it will be equivalent to allowing Picard to insert a chess piece in East Africa, which will be able to influence several surrounding countries.

.

This point is very important.

Picard is an arms company. Although it serves the US government, Picard also sells some other arms.

After all, the orders from the US military are not that generous.

You can make money, but it's impossible to make big money from orders from the U.S. military.

The U.S. military is not stupid.

I go to these companies every year to purchase, but the prices they give are not high.

Regardless of how high the purchase orders revealed by the outside world are, in fact, if the costs of these military companies are deducted, although they are making money, they are within a very reasonable range.

This is not directly proportional to the profits from arms orders.

And the reason for this is because with the support of the US military, arms companies like you can sell some orders to other countries.

For some less high-tech orders, you can easily sell them to other countries.

However, in this regard, the US military wants to get a share of the pie.

However, everyone gets what he deserves.

Orders from the military can support these companies to continuously develop new technologies and keep them at the top of the world. It can be said that these companies themselves do not need to spend additional funds for research and development.

Because there are military orders, you don’t have to worry about developing it and no one wants it.

And with a military background, you can better sell products with high assembly line output.

This is a mutually reinforcing thing.

Everyone benefits from each other.

In this world, only mutually beneficial transactions can last long.

It is impossible to make profits unilaterally.

However, Qin Feng's gold mine was able to bypass the US military and directly allow Picard to exert influence in Africa.

That way, they can dump more arms.

A conservative estimate would add at least an additional US$100 million in profits each year.

Is Africa so poor? Can it sell so many arms?

Don't look at Africa as poor.

Indeed, Africa is very poor.

For example, Ethiopia's per capita GDP last year was only US$111.

A very exaggerated number.

It’s only $111 a year.

What can this do?

However, the African system is not a modern social system. Although many countries criticize it as a modern society, in fact it is still the chieftaincy system.

There is a complete difference between the two.

So? Africa is poor, but? Some people are rich.

In order to consolidate their power, these chiefs must have an army so that they can continue to hold power.

And the army? It needs weapons and equipment.

Naturally, it is necessary for these arms companies to exist.

And you can raise an army? So can I.

I have no money, why should I build an army? If I kill you then, I will have money.

Under such circumstances, making 100 million a year? It's really not much.

You know, Africa doesn’t have much else. It has a lot of resources.

These resources will be sold by these warlords and chiefs at extreme prices.

At that time, if it changes hands, the arms company will make a lot of money.

And this gold mine is a bridgehead for Picard to bypass the U.S. military and make money on its own.

As for bypassing the military, will the military be unhappy?

Then this concern is unnecessary.

If you have the ability to make money on your own, the military will not be jealous.

After all, the military is not a company.

"50%!" Qin Feng naturally knew that this was Cross-Picard asking for a price.

The other party's sky-high asking price has already shown what the other party's psychological tolerance range is.

In the negotiation between the two parties, you can actually tell what the other party's bottom line is from the first price offer.

Of course, there are also some people who like the lion to open his mouth and yell at random prices.

But that's just people in the market shouting prices randomly.

In fact, at their level, it's impossible for you to randomly bid.

If you bid randomly, you are disrespecting the other party. This may directly lead to the breakdown of the negotiation. Then it will be impossible to negotiate again.

Therefore, people at their level will exercise restraint and will not act recklessly.

"Although everything depends on your family, the problem is that I am not in a hurry!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

At the beginning, Qin Feng took out Wang Zha.

Cross-Picard's face twitched.

Is this how this guy negotiates? He just comes up to him and tells them how to negotiate.

Indeed, as Qin Feng said, he is not in a hurry.

What is he anxious about?

"We are not in a hurry!" Cross-Picard said solemnly.

Are they in a hurry?

It's not that urgent either.

The value of this gold mine is of course best for them to own.

But no, they can accept it.

Anyway, this gold mine was created out of nothing.

"There is no rush. But this is what Daniel paid for with his life, and it was achieved by members of your family. Without development like this, in three to five years, it will have nothing to do with your family at all." Qin Feng said with a faint smile.

, "At that time, if your family wants to come in, it will be impossible. This favor is over, but it is over."

Cross-Picard looked at Qin Feng.

Is this guy a genius? Even if you say he is good at reading, why is he so experienced in negotiation?

This is completely unlike a young man who is only 19 years old this year.

Too sophisticated.

Qin Feng smiled slightly.

"I don't care, but this gold mine is mine after all. I don't want to cause trouble in the future, so if your family is sincere, then we can have a good talk." Qin Feng said with a smile, "Let's talk sincerely.

."

Cross-Picard was secretly wary, this guy is not easy to deal with.

It seems that it is difficult for me to take advantage.

Subsequently, the two sides began to enter formal negotiations.

This time, it was a business development negotiation with both parties being extremely sincere.

In the end, Qin Feng gave up 35% of the gold mine ownership and at the same time spent US$10 million in cash for gold mine development.

As for the Picard family, they are responsible for handling all affairs of the gold mine.

For example, road construction, paving, gold mining, security, communication between countries, and everything else.

In this regard, conservative estimates suggest that at least US$30 million should be invested.
