Abandoned the Immortal Cultivator, returned to his hometown to farm and sing

Chapter 863 857. The dog owner is really rich

The following topic returned to the drunkard’s overseas breakthrough point.

Lao Zhou also thinks that the risks in Europe and the United States are too great. First, they are their traditional sphere of influence, and it is not feasible to attack the boss directly.

Secondly, just as Ke Shaotong worried, he could not enter high-end places and his safety could not be guaranteed.

Forget about online shopping for now, luxury goods must be classy.

So Lao Zhou recommended two breakthrough points, one is the Middle East proposed by Luo Yihang, and the other is Hong Kong and Macao.

As for Hong Kong and Macao, they are mainly facing Asia, starting from the novice village and expanding their influence little by little. For international luxury companies, the drunk customers will be returned, and there is plenty of time to take it slowly.

In the Middle East, countries such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar are financial centers, luxury travel destinations, and have many wealthy people who directly face the ultimate consumers.

The advantage is that the influence can be expanded quickly, but the disadvantage is that once it is made clear, it will be met with various obstructions, either overt or covert, and the tentacles of Oriental luxury goods will be killed with all their might.

The only thing that can be guaranteed is that there will be no safety risks and perfumes can be sold normally.

There are plans for both directions, it depends on what Luo Yihang chooses.

Is there any need to choose? Of course it’s the Middle East.

Lao Zhou was not surprised by Luo Yihang's choice. He went directly to the Middle East branch and said, "After analyzing the economic and trade cooperation gift method proposed by Mr. Luo, we feel that the effect may not be very good."

They were really polite. Even though it was clearly unreliable, they still gave a tactful answer.

"We have contacted some people in the UAE through special channels. They are willing to cooperate, but there is a condition. As it happens, the condition is related to you, Mr. Luo."

Luo Yihang didn't ask about the method or the person. He only asked, "What are the conditions?"

"The seedlings of Qiuyan No. 9." Lao Zhou mentioned an unexpected condition.

"Are they going to make alcohol?" Luo Yihang asked.

“No, it’s for eating.”

"Eat? Qiuyan No. 9 is an industrial raw material and cannot be eaten."

"Strictly speaking, it just tastes bad, but it is still food. It can provide nutrition and sustain life."

This is strange. "There's no shortage of food in the Middle East, right? If you have money, what can't you buy? As for eating this?"

As a result, Lao Zhou's answer was even stranger: "It's not for the UAE, it's for Yemen."

The condition proposed is to give Qiuyan No. 9 to others?

And that's not right. "Aren't they at war with Yemen? We were evacuating our citizens. I've seen Operation Red Sea."

"Uh..." Lao Zhou paused, as if he was organizing his words. "It is Saudi Arabia that is at war with Yemen. We have been talking about the UAE, and the conflict between Saudi Arabia and Yemen officially ceased last year."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I don't really care about these things." Luo Yihang apologized quickly, his face a little hot. He kept saying that he wanted to go to sea and fight in the Middle East, but it turned out that he didn't even understand the basic situation there.

This is totally wrong. Arrogance, too much arrogance. Arrogance comes before a fall. You must be careful.

Old Zhou simply explained to Luo Yihang from the beginning, "Although Saudi Arabia and the UAE both belong to the Haihehui, they also participated in the conflict with Yemen in 15, but withdrew in 16. And no matter how much they fight, they are all Arab brothers, and there are factions within them that sympathize with Yemen. Even within Yemen, there are several forces. The relationship is very complicated."

"But these have little to do with Mr. Luo's affairs. You just need to know that Yemen is suffering from a severe famine because of the war. Now 1200 million people are starving, 230 million children are malnourished, and children have starved to death."

"Yemen has no money to import food, and international aid is even less than it can provide. Even a small amount of aid cannot be transported inland due to insufficient infrastructure and transportation capacity."

"It is precisely in this situation that Qiuyan No. 9 is needed. It has high yield, short cycle and is not picky about chemical fertilizers. It is just right for inland areas to save themselves. For them, taste is not important, the most important thing is to stay alive."

When Lao Zhou spoke this, he paused and there was also the sound of flipping through documents. He should be trying to keep it as simple as possible, as there must be some complicated inner story.

As for the inside story, it's easy to imagine, there's all sorts of messy stuff like factional competition and nurturing the enemy to protect oneself.

However, since Lao Zhou was able to talk about this matter, they must have assessed the risks.

Finally, Lao Zhou concluded: "This is what it is. Don't worry about anything else. Mr. Luo, you can treat it as a humanitarian act, just to save more lives. Of course, it is up to you, Mr. Luo, to decide whether to agree to this condition." Wow, such a small perfume, how can it snowball and get bigger and bigger.

Why is it also related to the Yemen famine?
As for it?
But should we do it or not?
Luo Yihang knocked on the table, lost in thought...
-
While he was thinking, Luo Yihang caught a glimpse of Uncle Li from the corner of his eye. Uncle Li was nodding slightly with his eyelids still rolling up.

Let me agree? Turn up? Up? Eh?
Could it be that... the perfume and myself are smoke bombs? Yes, ahem, I need to do this.

After thinking this through, Luo Yihang replied: "As long as the country allows it, I have no objection."

After hearing Luo Yihang's answer, Lao Zhou immediately said, "In this case, I still need to confirm one thing with Mr. Luo. Is it true that Qiuyan No. 9 cannot keep its own seeds?"

You still have to be on guard, right?

Luo Yihang immediately affirmed: "Qiuyan No. 9 is a hybrid variety. When the self-retained seeds are planted for the next generation, separation is very likely to occur, resulting in short plants, poor disease resistance, and reduced yield."

Furthermore, "If necessary, we can also use gene restriction technology. We can stimulate and activate the tubers to have high yields, and the unactivated ones will be 74-128, a super early-maturing, pure and stable variety with low yield, easy to get sick and worthless."

74-128 is the father of Qiuyan No. , a potato variety that doesn’t even have a name and whose value only exists in the laboratory and is used purely as a “breeding pig”.

(Gene restriction technology is the technology used by the four major grain companies to control seeds. The next generation will either not be able to grow or will have no advantageous shape at all.)
Lao Zhou was still worried and continued to ask: "Is there any way to circumvent the restrictions?"

"Yes, through tissue culture, new plants can be cultivated directly from stems and leaves, but the cost is too high. It is OK for use in laboratories, but it will be a loss if used in the field."

After repeated confirmation, Lao Zhou was relieved. "With our scale, the cost of tissue culture is high, and theirs is even higher. Besides, Yemen doesn't have this technology, but it can be used as an excuse."
-
"Then Mr. Luo has already made the decision to go to the Middle East and agreed to provide Yemen with the Qiuyan-9." After Lao Zhou summarized, he mentioned another thing.

"But the other party also has concerns about this matter. European luxury goods companies have a great influence on the political world."

"The drunkard opening a shop and the grain delivery to Yemen should be kept separate and there should be no connection between them."

"In addition, there are many factions within the UAE, so the drunkards' arrival must be covered up and cannot be done openly. Although the truth is sure to be guessed, if there is a cover-up, there will be no handle to tear the relationship apart, and our factions can also exert their strength."

"So I have to think of an excuse."

Why are there conditions again?

"It seems like they want to get all the benefits and don't want to take any risks!" Luo Yihang said in a somewhat unfriendly tone.

It's intentional, to gain advantage.

Unexpectedly, Lao Zhou did not continue to persuade, but shared the same hatred with Luo Yihang, "We said the same thing, but the other party can give compensation."

You asked for it before I even asked for it? Are you so considerate?

Luo Yihang asked hurriedly, "What compensation?"

"money."

"about how much?"

"We need to discuss the details, but it won't be less than 100 million US dollars."

...Okay, this is a big one.

Luo Yihang worked hard for a whole year and went through so many things, but he only managed to make a little over 1.3 billion, and that was the turnover.

As for the profit... the expenses are too high and it's unbearable.

The rich man just opened his mouth and asked for 100 million US dollars, which is more than 700 million RMB, or at least.

This doesn't cost anything.

It is enough for Luo Yihang to work for several years. Even for Wenying's laboratory, which costs the most, it is enough to build two with a bend.

Damn, it feels so good to be hit by money.

Luo Yihang's resentment was gone.
