Chapter 74 Steel factory, do you want it? (Third update, please collect)

It doesn't matter where the fool comes from. What matters is that these predators in the jungle will not let go of any valuable prey.

"Did you buy the boat?"

Mickey ran to Li Yian again and asked in a low voice.

"Spain's Alcatel Shipping Company, Alfonso...is your employee!"

Faced with Mickey's repeated questions, Li Yian neither denied nor admitted.

"Oh my God, how can you spend so much money on a boat? Those boats are losers, do you know that?"

Mickey seemed a little excited. How could he not be excited? After all, his future and destiny depended on this guy to change. As a result, he wasted precious funds on those junk ships.

As for being so excited?

Looking at Mickey, Li Yian said directly.

"I need those boats!"

Ships are the main purpose of Li Yi'an's trip. After all, ships are an indispensable means of transportation in the future construction of North Borneo. Whether it is the transportation of immigrants or the transportation of materials, ships are inseparable. Not to mention hundreds of thousands of tons, if funds allowed, he might even buy millions of tons of merchant ships.

After all, whether it is from the development of the shipping industry after the war or the needs of immigrants, investing in the shipping industry is a profitable business.

The words "I need" made Mickey dumbfounded. He opened his mouth in shock and said after a moment.

"Well, sir, you're not interested in banks, are you? What about factories?"

"factory?"

Li Yian's brows raised slightly.

"Yes, it's the factories. Although the factories in Italy are not as good as those in the United States, they are still good. There are many factories that cannot start operation due to problems such as raw materials and funds. Of course, the most important thing is that what those companies are really worried about is the future. !”

factory……

In addition to ships, Italian industrial enterprises seemed to be a good choice. Unlike post-war German factories, which were included in the sequence of war reparations, the process of whether to be dismantled as war reparations had always been controlled by the Allies. As half an Allied country, Italy's factories were not taken over by the Allies, but even so, those business owners still lost their factories.

Just like Fiat, it manufactured armaments for the army during the war and made a huge fortune from the war. Although it was not controlled by the Allies after the war, it was confiscated by the Italian National Liberation Committee. It was not until 1966 that the company was returned to the Agnelli family.

Originally, Li Yian did not expect to get Fiat. After all, it was the largest industrial company in Italy, but now, Mickey's appearance made him see an opportunity.

I saw an opportunity to take a big bite out of Fiat. Even if you can't eat this company, you still have to take a big bite!
  "In the future, as we all know, those companies are supporters of Mussolini. What if the Allies liquidate and include their companies as part of the war reparations? Once this happens, they will have nothing. So, compared to In the face of an uncertain future, they would rather sell their companies now, while they can still make the decision, and we can buy them at extremely low prices!”

Just taking advantage of the situation!
  If you don't seize the opportunity to rob someone, how can you live up to your ancestors?
  Li Yian said calmly.

"Indeed, this is indeed an opportunity, but what can you do?"

"I represent Morgan, Lee!"

Mickey said directly. "No one in Europe is clear about the relationship between the Morgan consortium and the government, but believe me, no one is willing to try to offend the Morgan consortium. They are also afraid that if they offend the company, they will offend the government. Here, Morgan or the big companies in the United States , is a pass and a protective umbrella.”

Mickey said, lighting a cigarette triumphantly.

"This is what I can offer you, in Italy I can represent both Morgan and you!"

After taking a puff of cigarette, Mickey threw out his trump card and said slowly.

"I can acquire banks for Morgan, and I can also help you achieve your wishes in the name of Morgan. Now, the whole of Italy is the treasure house of the Eighteen Thieves, waiting for us to dig it, and what about me? I only need a little bit. remuneration."

What Mickey needs is not just a little reward, but his first pot of gold. He needs to be like those big companies and eat a little bit of the residue left by big companies in this feast, but this requires money!

money!
  The millionaire in front of me has money. Can a guy who can spend $200 million buy a bunch of junk be broke?
  "It's reasonable."

Li Yian smiled, took a puff of cigarette, and thought for a while.

"Do you have any good recommendations?"

"Steel company, there is a steel company affiliated with Fiat in Taranto. It has two blast furnaces with an annual output of 100 million tons and six steel-making open-hearth furnaces with an annual production capacity of 150 million tons. As we all know, because of the raw materials, it The output has always been only a few hundred thousand tons. This enterprise was invested and built by Fite Corporation before the war to support Mussolini's arms expansion. The equipment was first-class, and the total investment at that time was more than 3000 million US dollars. If you have If you’re interested, I can take him down.”

After thinking about it, Mickey put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray and said.

"If I buy it for $300 million, you only have to give me 5%. If it's $200 million, it's 10%. If it's $100 million, it's 30%. What do you think, Lee!"

Mickey's asking price was not even a fraction of his pre-war investment!
  This is post-war Europe. These large American conglomerates waving US dollar bills bought Europe at ridiculously low prices, buying up the most promising and promising mines, oil fields, farms and factories, and giving them to foreign countries that were on the verge of bankruptcy. Company blood transfusion.

metal company!

The construction in North Borneo will definitely require a large amount of steel. Among other things, the future construction of immigrant housing and factory buildings will not necessarily be able to meet the construction needs without millions of tons of steel a year.

Spending 300 million to buy such a factory... is not impossible!

But everyone would definitely want to take off this piece of fat. I’m afraid it’s not that easy to eat this piece of fat.

"Steel, Europe's post-war reconstruction will definitely require a lot of steel. Such a big steel company will definitely make a lot of money from the war. There must be many people who are interested in him."

"Lee, this is where my value lies."

Mickey took out a cigarette comfortably and said in a relaxed tone.

"I can guarantee you'll be able to buy it!"

After glancing at Mickey, Li Yian thought for a while and said directly.

"Go ahead! Buy it!"
