Global Treasure Hunting: From Penniless to Billionaire

The coach said that the driver's license will be mailed within ten days.

The newly diverted crew members were very excited, and Zhao An also happily announced that there will be extra meals for everyone in the evening.

However, the coach still suggested to Zhao An: "Because your yacht is too big, it's better for the crew to go to a professional maritime academy for further studies. They will be safer when sailing in the future."

Zhao An took it seriously and said: "I understand, thank you coach, you and your team have worked hard during this time."

While Gao Qiang and the others were purchasing ingredients and preparing dinner, Zhao An took Wang Bing to the military division, found Fang Diwei,

When Fang Diwei saw Zhao An, he couldn't help frowning, "Why are you here again?"

Zhao An said with a smile, "Commander Fang, I want to ask you for help."

Fang Diwei closed the document in his hand, glanced at Zhao An and said, "If you have something to say, you have to fart."

Zhao An was not polite, and said, "Commander Fang, I asked Gao Qiang and the others to select ten people to take the yacht driver's license test.

But if they want to sail on the ocean, they need to let them go to further studies,

Look, can you give me some ideas so that they can go to a professional maritime academy..."

Fang Diwei said: "Jiangcheng University has a Department of Navigation. If you donate some money to them, won't they be able to get in?"

Zhao An was taken aback, and said, "Is it that simple?"

Fang Diwei laughed and said: "It's easy to get in, but it's hard to get out. As far as I know, the driving major of the navigation department is

If you want to graduate, you must take at least three major certificates, from foreign language to social, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are a decathlon. "

Zhao An drooped his shoulders and said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, I'm not taking the exam, so let Gao Qiang and the others take the exam."

Fang Diwei said: "If you want to rest assured, how about I find you a few retired officers from the Navy?"

Zhao An was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

Fang Diwei said: "Of course it is true. Some naval officers have retired from active service, but they should not be too young."

Zhao Andao: "It doesn't matter. Older age means more experience. We just need a few experienced captains to lead new crew members like Gao Qiang and the others."

Fang Diwei said: "You mean, one is enough?"

Zhao An nodded again and again, "That's enough, that's enough, thank you, Commander Fang."

Fang Diwei said: "Go, I will contact you later, remember, try to find more cobalt ore, or cobalt minerals,

Relevant departments are now strongly in need, but our country's cobalt mine production capacity is not very sufficient,

So within your ability, find as many as you can. "

Zhao An said: "Okay, Commander Fang, I will try my best."

After leaving the military division, Zhao An was very happy, and asked Wang Bing to take him back to the smelting plant at the dock.

Seeing Gao Qiang who was preparing to hand over the post of captain, he said, "I originally planned to let you be the captain of the Tranquility.

But I have asked, the captain of an ocean-going yacht needs to master too many skills,

If you start training from scratch, it will take at least three to five years.

So I'm here to tell you now, if you're still willing to go on board,

It may take a long time to study on the ship before you can be qualified for the post of captain, are you still willing? "

Gao Qiang said with a sneer: "It's okay, Mr. Zhao, I am willing to learn,

I would also like to continue to serve you on board, whoever you choose to be your captain,

I will try my best to learn from him until I am qualified for the post of captain. "

Zhao An laughed and said: "Okay, very good, since you are willing to continue on the boat, I am also happy to train you,

And it will be good for you to learn more skills, even if you don’t work for me in the future,

A class A captain's certificate and rich sailing experience will also bring you many benefits in your future career. "

Gao Qiang said formally: "I know, thank you Mr. Zhao for your cultivation!"

Chapter 190 Land Auction

After Zhao An had a dinner at the smelting factory, he asked Wang Bing to send him back to the Waterside Flower City.

Seeing Li Zhiyuan cooking, Zhao An smiled and said, "There's no need to prepare my portion, I ate it in the smelting factory."

Li Zhiyuan snorted and said: "You don't eat at home very much recently, and I didn't prepare for you."

Zhao An laughed and said, "But if you sincerely invite me to eat, I can still eat a little more."

Li Zhiyuan ignored him, put the food on the table, and ate on her own,

Zhao An was not angry, and sat down beside him, and said, "How long will it take for Auntie to complete the retirement procedures?"

Li Zhiyuan took a mouthful of rice, chewed it a few times, and said vaguely: "It should be soon, after all, if a seat is freed, many people can move their nests, it's the best of both worlds."

Zhao An laughed and said, "I know, don't worry, Auntie works here, I won't treat her badly."

Li Zhiyuan rolled his eyes at him, and said, "I'm sorry you don't dare, and my mother works in the foundation, and she really wants to do some good deeds, not for her own material needs."

Zhao Andao: "As for the name of the foundation, I originally planned to use An Yuan's, that is, our two names each take a word.

Later, I found out that it is better to be neutral, so I haven’t decided on it. What do you think? "

Li Zhiyuan bit her chopsticks, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, you don't have to pull me up, but since you asked, I'll give you some advice. You can change Yuan to the source's source." Yet?"

Zhao An said: "Okay, I see, it seems that it's time to put the matter of buying land on the agenda, and get this foundation out as soon as possible."

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao An came to the company, found Xu Wenqian and said, "How is the matter of the land I told you going?"

Xu Wenqian said: "That's right, Mr. Zhao, according to public information, the land will be auctioned in a few days, and our company has also applied for the qualification to participate in the auction. Will Mr. Zhao go there in person?"

Zhao An smiled and said, "Okay, please let me know in advance when the time comes, and I will go with you."

After thinking about it, he said, "Is there anything to pay attention to about competitors?"

He attaches great importance to this piece of land, and hopes that it can be used to build the headquarters of Zhao's Mining, and the future foundation will also be located there for easy management.

Therefore, it is better not to have any accidents. Therefore, it is still necessary to understand the competitors.

Xu Wenqian said: "There are a few companies that need attention. The first is the local Hongjiang Real Estate, which is still very powerful locally.

In addition, Wanjie Real Estate and SH Real Estate also intend to participate in the competition. They are both domestic real estate tycoons and listed companies with strong capital. "

Zhao An mother-in-law twitched her chin and thought for a while: "Well, you can estimate how much the land in Zhou's Shoes City is worth based on the market price."

Xu Wenqian said: "After you gave me the task, I asked someone to do an asset appraisal. Referring to the recent price of the land in Jiangcheng, the land in Zhou's Shoes City should be around 40 billion yuan."

Zhao An said with a smile: "Then there is no big problem. Get ready. No matter what, try your best to take down the land of Zhou's Shoes City, tear it down, and build me a new headquarters of Zhao's Mining Group."

Xu Wenqian raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhao."

She doesn't care anyway, the company is owned by the boss, and Zhao An paid for it. She is only responsible for the preparation work, and she is convinced by Zhao An's ability and means, so she will basically cooperate with Zhao An's arrangements as long as they are not too outrageous. Finish.

At the other end of the auction, Zhao An and Xu Wenqian drove to the location of the auction - Jiangcheng Hotel.

This is Zhao An's third visit to this place, and he did not expect that the court in charge of the auction would choose this place for the auction.

Seeing that Zhao Anxin had doubts, Xu Wenqian explained to him: "Today's auction,

Not only the land of Zhou's Shoe City was auctioned, but also Zhou's business, etc. were also auctioned off.

So the publicity was done very well, so there were people from all walks of life. "

Zhao An nodded clearly.

However, not all the people who came here intended to buy things. Some of them might have come to join in the fun, or they might have been sent by the Zhou Brothers as trustees. There will be leftovers.

But these have nothing to do with Zhao An, his goal is only that piece of land.

After sitting down at the seat, a staff member sent Zhao An an auction list, which listed the items and order of the auction.

Zhao An looked at it, and the auction of the land was put on the last item.

Therefore, I planned to close my eyes and rest my mind, but was disturbed by the heated discussion of the previous few people, making it impossible to rest.

A thin, middle-aged man with a high hairline talked eloquently: "The reason why real estate is developed is that

It is because everyone has desires, needs, and wants to have their own independent real estate,

The one with a real estate certificate, in this regard, the prosperity of the real estate economy in Xiangjiang is a proof. "

A middle-aged man next to him who was also thin and thin, but taller and looked more energetic retorted: "Mr. Pang, you are sophistry.

The real estate boom in Xiangjiang is fake prosperity, and it is not much different from domestic ones.

It is because real estate is a large property, even some people's only property,

Therefore, people who own real estate hope that the real estate will appreciate more, and once the real estate depreciates, it means that their wealth in their hands will shrink. This is the fundamental reason for the high housing prices. "

Mr. Pang continued to retort: ​​"Doesn't Mr. Huang think that the rise in housing prices is not due to population expansion and the acceleration of urbanization?

These mainstream Western worlds have already experienced real-life examples. Do you still need me to discuss it with Mr. Huang? "

"Pang Xingyan," Mr. Huang said disdainfully: "You don't need to say your so-called Western mainstream rhetoric in front of me.

I don't follow your style either, you are just a land fryer, or the kind who run away after frying,

Do you dare to say that the rise in housing prices is not all caused by you speculating on land like this? "

Pang Xingyan laughed and said, "Mr. Huang Zhuo Huang, everyone is in this business, so it's no fun to expose it."

Huang Zhuo said indifferently: "Speaking so much, I will see the truth in a while. Whoever can win this piece of land depends on who is strong."

Hearing this, Xu Wenqian, who was sitting in the back row, opened the folder, pointed to the introduction on the file, and pointed to the people respectively.

Only then did Zhao An suddenly realize that the two sitting in front of him were one of today's competitors.

Pang Xingyan from SH Real Estate, and Huang Zhuo from Wanjie Real Estate.

Zhao An smiled slightly, recalling what the two of them had said before, and thought: Interesting.

Chapter 191 Want to verify Zhao An's qualifications?

Zhao An had heard about this Pang Xingyan when he was a dick netizen.

A lot of comments on the Internet are saying that he has no conscience and no humanity, earns money in the Chinese enclosure, goes to the United States to spend money, donates to American universities, and even changed his nationality to an American.

Some people also say that he is an extremely naive, hypocritical, cowardly and narcissistic mediocrity, dreaming of entering the upper class of the West,

Taking advantage of the times and policies in China, they always donate money to foreign countries, and they are indifferent to any disasters in China.

Others said that under his smiling tiger-like performance, there was a wretched heart hidden, and he liked to play tricks and so on.

As for the other one named Huang Zhuo, Zhao An didn't know much about it.

After all, a few months ago, he, Zhao An, was just a simple stinky dick, busy working for his life all day, and didn't care about gossip about real estate rich people.

They both regard each other as the biggest competitor, but they don't know that the biggest opponent is sitting behind them,

Seeing Huang Zhuo's tough attitude, Pang Xingyan said with a smile: "Mr. Huang, this land is not as good as our two joint acquisitions. How about joint development?"

Mr. Huang glanced at the assistant next to him, and said, "Mr. Pang, don't confuse me with sloppy eyes. I have also heard about your partner in Qiongdaokeng. I don't want to follow their footsteps."

Pang Xingyan said with a chuckle, "That's a rumour, and Mr. Huang also believes it."

Huang Zhuo said lightly: "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, and I'm in Wanjie, and I don't have many shares, so I don't care much about what I say."

Pang Xingyan was not angry when his face was hot and his butt was cold. He smiled mischievously and looked at the auction on the stage with great interest.

After waiting for another half an hour, they finally waited for the last item, the auction of the land in Zhou's Shoe City.

Only then did Zhao An cheer up, and listened to the auctioneer on the stage say: "In short, this piece of land has extremely high commercial value, whether it is converted into a commercial center or an office building, it is a very good choice.

Now the last auction of today begins, the main body of Zhou’s Shoes City, including land use rights and ground buildings,

The starting price is 20 billion RMB, and each increase should not be less than 100 million RMB. Please bid. "

After the auctioneer finished speaking for a long time, no one bid,

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, but there was still no bid. It's not that they were uncertain,

But everyone knows that the land use rights alone cost more than 20 billion yuan. When the Zhou brothers bought the land, it was almost the price of cabbage. Although they lost money now, the land price has risen enough to make up for the shortfall.

If it weren't for the broken capital chain, I am afraid that relying on this piece of land, there is still a possibility of turning around. As a result, he owes a large amount of money to the bank, and has no choice but to reach the point where the assets are auctioned.

Seeing this, Pang Xingyan rubbed his hands, raised a placard with a smile and said, "Since no one is willing to bid, I will be the one in charge, 21 billion yuan."
