Chapter 1340 - 1342
Zhao Guangran woke up in the middle of the night, and seeing the dark sky outside, he was taken aback.
"Why is it already dark?" Earlier, he had just had a cup of coffee to stay awake, but instead his head felt heavier and his drowsiness increased.
Looking down, he realized he was lying in bed.
"Ah, Gong Ruini." Zhao Guangran expressed anger, "You’re going too far, aren’t you?"
Zhao Guangran had every reason to be angry, knowing full well that he was on a tight schedule, and yet she still pulled this stunt, as if his time was overflowing.
"What happened?" Zhao Xuran had also just woken up not too long ago, and after eating the food Gong Ruini had specifically left, he came to see if Zhao Guangran was up.
Unexpectedly, upon entering, he heard such a chain of complaints from Zhao Guangran, and Zhao Xuran felt quite upset.
"Big Brother." How could he hear this familiar voice that should not be here? Zhao Guangran was truly dumbfounded.
Initially thinking his ears might be playing tricks on him, otherwise why would he hear such words, he turned his head and indeed saw it was Zhao Xuran.
"Weren’t you supposed to handle matters?" Seeing Zhao Xuran, Zhao Guangran’s first thought was why his eldest brother wasn’t staying domestic to await the loan approval.
"It’s all done, and I’ve talked with them; we’re just waiting for your company’s proof to be sent over."
"Oh, by the way, they requested the money be deposited in Switzerland." Zhao Xuran knew that anyone who climbed to such a high position wasn’t simple, yet he didn’t expect they would go to such lengths.
Depositing in Switzerland, really isn’t cautious, "No problem."
After all, where the money is deposited is their problem, "Do they have an account?" If they didn’t have an account, one would still need to be opened, and if possible, Zhao Guangran didn’t want to step in and help deal with it.
Zhao Xuran nodded, pulling out a piece of paper from his notebook and handing it to Zhao Guangran.
"This is their account." Although he wasn’t very familiar with Swiss banks, being able to quickly produce a Swiss bank account indicated that the other party definitely had overseas income.
As for who would send money to this account wasn’t something Zhao Xuran could manage, "Also, he said that in the future, the kickback we give him should also be deposited into this account."
Zhao Xuran had never handled such matters, so of course he had to ask Zhao Guangran, more importantly, the frequent transactions into this account worried him about potential issues.
"Looks like a seasoned pro, which is good, saves you the explanation." Zhao Guangran didn’t understand the situation with his big brother over there, but having a JF executive with such an account, the implications were self-evident.
"Big brother, you might consider deeper-level communication." Zhao Guangran thought that for his elder brother to do well domestically, there might be a better approach.
Deeper-level communication? Zhao Xuran didn’t understand and looked directly at Zhao Guangran.
What a dumb brother, "Could you not discuss with them about stealing out some advanced stuff, then you can go through the Dai or Chu family if you want."
Even though the Americans might also be interested, why let such good stuff go cheap for them.
Moreover, since they could hit economic moves with their elder brother over there and aim for a big payday, why not aim at high-tech sectors?
More importantly, if this gets out, how would the family develop domestically, let alone having the whole family move to the United States, don’t expect them to be taken care of by the Americans.
Ah, so that’s what this is about. "I’m not that naive, this matter is being handled by the Dai and Chu families."
Ah, no way, his big brother has already thought this through, quietly weaving plans without even letting his brother know.
"I was initially thinking of only giving this to the Chu family, you know how close we are with the Chu family."
Zhao Guangran nodded in agreement. Though he knew Dai Liren, in the United States, they seemed to mutually help each other, but the help from the Dai family wasn’t frequent or significant.
"Later, I thought if benefits were only given to the Chu family, what would the Dai family think, and if the Chu family got these things, would they not be too prominent?"
"Right, the Chu family was already prominent, if they achieved something of this magnitude, it wouldn’t be good for them either." My big brother isn’t being sincere, talking these official words in front of his brother.
"After what happened with Gong Ruwen, I was really quite annoyed." Zhao Xuran couldn’t tell Gong Ruini and them, fearing that Gong Ruzhi’s temperament would cause further disturbances.
No way, Zhao Guangran was stunned, "You’ve really been orchestrating this for a long time."
Not after Gong Ruwen planned to venture out; this happened even before that.
Zhao Guangran was furious, "Since they’re getting so many benefits, why didn’t they just lend a hand?"
Were it not for his upbringing, he’d really call them ingrates.
However, the displeasure was evident in his eyes, mentally circling the Dai and Chu families.
"Only the key people in the two families know about this, how could it get out?" Big families, big businesses, many things aren’t kept secret just because you want them to be.
Especially when many families are involved, there’s always someone hoping to gain more benefits for their own.
"But we can’t let Ruwen work so hard either." Zhao Guangran understood, but even so, he felt various grievances for Gong Ruwen.
"What else can we do?" Zhao Xuran knew the Dai family was underhanded, but what could be done, "And over there hasn’t even given the nod, so we don’t know if this can be executed."
Ah, they haven’t nodded yet? "Do they plan to keep sinking on this sinking ship?" Speechless, each one clearly working hard to make money, but internally, it’s already chaotic beyond repair.
How could they be thinking of keeping secrets at this time, Zhao Guangran really couldn’t understand.
"Did you forget about that agency?" Seeing Zhao Guangran’s excited state, Zhao Xuran couldn’t help but remind him.
Ah, mentioning that famous agency now, "There hasn’t been enough uproar before?" They’ve dispatched JF trains to transport goods for sale to Moscow.
That agency would be unaware? How come they weren’t worried then, why don’t these Arctic Bear people think?
"That’s because they were getting paid too." Back when discussing cooperation, Zhao Xuran knew, "because they also sent people."
Uh, no way, Zhao Guangran was stunned, "Brother, brother, you didn’t really meet those people, did you?" My goodness.
That must be a really mysterious figure, "Were they as handsome as 007?" Zhao Guangran was really excited.
For his brother’s sudden burst of excitement, Zhao Xuran just wanted to laugh, "You’re thinking too much."
"All middle-aged men with large potbellies, do you think they could go on missions?" Even if they could go on a mission, with their big bellies, how nimble could they be?
Even if their bones are flexible, they’re still just soft fat people, far from the 007 image in movies.
"More importantly, the charisma is significantly lacking." Zhao Xuran wouldn’t admit he was initially very excited knowing of the notable figure at the negotiation table.
"No hope, no disappointment." That was the conclusion Zhao Xuran came to after that meeting.
