Anger

After returning to the room and washing up, George went to bed. The spring bed was very soft and comfortable, and he almost sank into it. Relaxing his nerves and brain, he obeyed the thoughts of his brain and fell asleep soon.

When he woke up again, the bright sunshine of the Caribbean Sea passed through the window and sprinkled into the room. Looking at the beautiful sea view outside the window, George raised his eyebrows and said to himself.

"Okay, let's see what happens today."

More than an hour later, in the open-air cafe of the hotel, George looked at Li Dijun and Song Chengjun in front of him and remained silent.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Song Chengjun said directly.

"Mr. Li, I know this matter must be very difficult for you, but now the Americans want to use their monopoly advantage in shipping to force Chinese businessmen like us to sell sugar to them at a low price. If we compromise, then in the future, Chinese businessmen will definitely let them bully us. So, for the benefit of tens of thousands of compatriots, please wave your hand, Mr. Li."

At this point, Song Chengjun said solemnly again.

"The Americans asked us to sell the sugar to them at a low price of 15 cents per kilogram. If Mr. Li is willing to buy it, Yang is willing to let Mr. Li buy it at 10...13 cents per kilogram. No matter how much, as long as I, a Chinese businessman, have one kilogram, I will sell it to Mr. Li at this price!"

Thirteen cents per kilogram!

That is to say, about 6 cents per pound!

According to the official price, it is almost ten times the profit. If it is the black market price, it is nearly twenty times the profit!

What did Boss Ma say?

I forgot.

But this is twenty times the profit!

Besides, this will still be a stable market in the future. Although I can't eat up the market of 6 billion US dollars a year, if I can eat a few tens of it, I can also eat a full plate!

Despite this, George still didn't say anything. He just picked up the cup, took a sip of coffee, and looked at each other.

"My dear nephew..."

Opening his mouth, Li Dijun didn't continue to speak. After all, they just met for the first time and didn't have much friendship. After thinking for a while, he said.

"All this is to help compatriots. We are of the same blood, so we should help if we can."

"Uncle."

George smiled.

"My nephew knows what's going on."

Turning his eyes to Song Chengjun, George said directly:

"Why don't you sell to me when the Americans are offering you 15 cents a kilogram, but you are willing to sell it to me at 13 cents?"

"Mr. Li, I mean you and I are compatriots, why should we let outsiders take advantage? You will definitely not believe it. In fact, you can also guess it. The reason why I am unwilling to give the Americans a bargain is for profit. If we allow the Americans to bully us like this, then in the future, in ten or twenty years, we Chinese businessmen in Cuba will definitely not have any chance to make a breakthrough. Compared with allowing American businessmen to bully us, I would rather sell the sugar to Mr. Li at a low price. As long as we can get through this difficult time, we Chinese businessmen will be able to make a breakthrough. Then we can gain a firm foothold in the sugar industry, so that we can have a bright future. Mr. Li, in the final analysis, it is for the future of our Chinese businessmen. Our ancestors came here as slaves. In the past hundred years, from slaves to small vendors, and then to today, it is not easy. If we miss this opportunity, we Chinese businessmen will still be small vendors. Therefore, for the future of Chinese businessmen, let alone 13 cents a pound, even if it is 10 cents, I am willing to lose money. What Yang did is not for anything else, but for the future of our Chinese businessmen, so that we can have a place in the sugar industry! "

After a decisive voice, Song Chengjun sighed again, not knowing whether he was helpless for himself or for the future of Chinese businessmen.

Looking at the man in front of him, at this moment, George seemed to understand why Chinese businessmen could rise in Southeast Asia in that era, from French Indochina to Malay, to Dutch East Indies, and then to the Philippines. As long as there is an opportunity, Chinese businessmen will definitely rise. Not only one person will become the richest man in the local area, but the rise of the entire ethnic group.

What do they rely on?

It is the ambition deep in their hearts that they are unwilling to lag behind. They will always seize every opportunity to develop themselves. And now is precisely their opportunity to improve themselves. Helping them is also helping yourself!

At this moment, George seemed to understand everything. His eyes changed when he looked at Song Chengjun, and he nodded slightly.

"Mr. Song, if that's the case, why should I buy it at 13 cents a kilogram..."

Before he finished speaking, Song Chengjun's face suddenly changed, and even Li Dijun's face became a little ugly. At this moment, a delicate shout came from the side.

"Dad, I said that such a person must be unreliable!"

Before the voice fell, there was a... uh, a pair of long legs caught his eye. He looked up and saw a young woman in a long skirt coming from the next table, staring at him with a pair of eyes full of anger.

"The foreign devils are hateful, and the second devils are even more hateful. You just want to take advantage of the foreign devils when they oppress us!"

Uh...

Looking at the girl who came out of nowhere, George didn't know what to say for a moment. The girl in front of him was a mixed-race girl at first glance, and her appearance looked a little familiar. It might be a man's habit to see a beautiful woman and feel that he has seen it before, but it seems to be in a movie.

But she is really tall!

At least 175cm or more!

Looking at the angry girl, George frowned, and when he was about to speak, he heard Song Chengjun say.

"Bing'er! Who asked you to interrupt!"

"Dad, I...he..."

The girl pouted with an unpleasant face.

"He obviously wants to..."

"Take advantage of the fire?"

George smiled.

"Business, taking advantage of the fire is what businessmen should do, otherwise, how can they be called businessmen?"

The girl's eyes widened instantly, and she said in astonishment.

"You, you..."

I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such a shameless person, who doesn't even pretend, which is simply shameless.

In contrast, George seemed very calm, and cast his eyes on Song Chengjun and asked back.

"What do you think, Mr. Song?"

Song Chengjun barely squeezed out four words.

"Business is business!"

"Mr. Song is right, but a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. Business is business, but..."

Looking at Song Chengjun with his eyes, George smiled.

"Some money can be earned, but some money cannot be earned."

Before Song Chengjun, Li Dijun and the girl next to him could react, George said.

"Current price!"

Song Bing said in surprise.

"What?
