Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

"I can't take out a sum of 100,000 pounds all at once."

"What does Mr. Sun mean by this?"

After hearing what Sun Tong said, Xiao Er thought that Sun Tong was playing a joke on him, but when he thought carefully about the company's investigation on Sun Tong, he didn't think that Sun Tong would make such a boring joke.

"I don't have that much money, but I can use other things to make up for it."

"what?"

Xiao Er could understand that Sun Tong couldn't come up with the money, but he didn't think that Sun Tong had any treasure worth 100,000 pounds.

"Mr. Shaw, please allow me to keep you in suspense about what it is. If you have time, Mr. Shaw, you may come and sit with me."

"Sure, I also want to see what Mr. Sun is going to use to pay the debt."

The more mysterious it was, the more curious Xiao Er was about what Sun Tong was going to do. As for Sun Tong, he naturally hoped to use the gems in his hand to pay off the debt.

Sun Tong's statement that he couldn't come up with 100,000 pounds was just an excuse. How could he not come up with such a small amount of money? Let alone 100,000, even 1 million pounds would not be difficult for him to come up with.

When he printed the "counterfeit money" at the beginning, he mainly printed British pounds and US dollars. They were all printed because these two currencies had the highest value.

The reason why Sun Tong did not use money but gems to trade this time was that he wanted to find a market for the gems in his hands.

If we let him sell it by himself, there's no telling how long it will take to sell it.

If he could get in touch with the Aquitaine Company, even if Sun Tong suffered a loss, he would be able to dispose of the gems in his hands as soon as possible.

"Mr. Sun, don't you consider moving to a bigger manor?"

In Xiao'er's opinion, with Sun Tong's wealth, it would be no problem for him to live in the most luxurious manor. Although this villa is nice, it is not worthy of Sun Tong's status.

Of course, the main reason he said this was because the Aquitaine Company had several large estates acquired through debt repayment, and the senior executives of their company now had their own residences, so wouldn't they have to find a way to sell these estates and earn money?

It was obvious that in his eyes, Sun Tong was a potential customer for purchasing these manors.

"We'll talk about the house later. Mr. Shore, please come upstairs with me to look at things first."

The villa in front of us was decorated by Sun Tong and Sun Xiaoting, and it looks very beautiful.

"Mr. Shore, please!"

The two men entered Sun Tong's study one after another. After arranging Xiao Er to sit down, Sun Tong pretended to open the safe next to his desk, and then took out a cloth bag in a pretentious manner. It seemed that the things were taken out directly from the safe, but in fact, only Sun Tong himself knew that the cloth bag in the safe was originally empty, and the gems inside were taken out by him secretly from his personal space.

"Let's see!"

He handed the cloth bag to Shor, who then opened it directly.

"This is?"

"These gems were obtained by my ancestors when they did business overseas. I originally planned to keep them as heirlooms of the Sun family. But you know the situation this time, Mr. Shaw. I have no choice but to take out these gems. Mr. Shaw, please take a look at the goods first, and then we can discuss the price."

In this day and age, due to the relatively backward technology, there has never been any case of gem counterfeiting. When Shor saw the gems in the bag, his heart began to beat wildly.

"Mr. Sun, are you willing to sell all these gemstones to our Aquitaine Company?"

"That depends on what price you offer, Mr. Shaw. As long as the price is not too outrageous, I am still willing to cooperate with your company."

"Mr. Sun, to be honest, I have very limited knowledge of the gem industry. The gems you brought out are all top-quality, so I need to consult professionals before I can give you a quote."

"Sure. I wonder when Mr. Shore plans to invite an expert to come and identify the case?"

"How about this, I'll arrange for my assistant to invite someone over now. As for me, I wonder if I can shamelessly have lunch here with Mr. Sun?"

"Of course no problem, then let's do as you wish, Mr. Shaw."

In fact, Xiaoer had thought about snatching these gems directly from Sun Tong, but this idea was killed by Xiaoer as soon as it came into being.

First of all, Sun Tong is not a lamb to be slaughtered. It took Sun Tong three months to gain a foothold in the Magic City. During this period, he encountered troubles more than once or twice. He didn't rely on luck to get to this point. If he didn't have some tricks, he would have been eaten up without leaving anything.

In addition, Xiao Er also values ​​Sun Tong's future potential. Although the value of this batch of gems is high, who knows to what extent Sun Tong will develop in the future? As a successful businessman, Xiao Er is unwilling to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

The most important thing that made Xiaoer give up the idea of ​​killing and robbing was that Sun Tong had a lot of bodyguards under his command. A large part of the weapons in the hands of these bodyguards were bought from the Aquitaine Company. Considering the security conditions of the Sun family, if Xiaoer sent too few people, they would just be there to deliver food. But if he sent too many people and the noise was too loud, it would be hard to say whether the batch of gems could fall into his hands.

In short, without sufficient interests, Xiao Er would not turn against Sun Tong, so his most urgent idea was to take these gems as soon as possible.
