The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 786 WPG Risk Assured: A More Proactive Shengqing Circle! Intentionally Keeping Them Out? Determining Their Objective?
Chen Hongzhi was stunned by An Wuyang's explanation.

Investment funds measured in US$ billion?
If necessary, it could even involve investments in the range of billions of dollars.

good good!
Wujingtian is indeed rich!
But Chen Hongzhi really wanted to know what made An Wuyang so confident in making money in the gold market?

Chen Hongzhi: Brother Wuyang, aren't you worried about the losses?

'An Wuyang: I understand that investing involves risk. We at Wujingtian can also bear the consequences of losses, so even if losses do occur, we at Wujingtian can accept them.'

Chen Hongzhi was speechless.

Wugengtian can accept the risk of loss, but he is less able to accept it.

Chen Hongzhi: Is this risky?

'Safe and sound: Uncertain.'

Chen Hongzhi: Understood.

Chen Hongzhi: When did you start investing in the gold market?

'An Wuyang: Is Brother Hongzhi sure he wants to participate?'

Chen Hongzhi: Hmm!

Chen Hongzhi still chose to believe in An Wuyang's luck, so he decided to join the gold investment project proposed by An Wuyang this time.

An Wuyang: How much money is Brother Hongzhi planning to invest?

Chen Hongzhi: It's uncertain at the moment.

Chen Hongzhi: I need to raise funds first; I'll try my best to raise as much as possible.

Chen Hongzhi originally planned to invest several million US dollars to follow suit, even if he lost money, he would consider it as simply supporting An Wuyang.

But if he's already investing hundreds of millions of yuan at the crack of dawn, then investing a few million would seem rather stingy.

Therefore, Chen Hongzhi quietly increased his investment amount, preparing to invest at least ten million US dollars. As for whether he could raise more money, Chen Hongzhi himself was not sure.

An Wuyang: Then Hongzhi, you need to hurry. We plan to join the gold futures market starting Monday.

'An Wuyang: Given the impending conflict between the Northern Bear Kingdom and the Kingdom of Youke, our first strategy is to go long on gold futures. I believe the price of gold will definitely rise in the short term.'

An Wuyang revealed some information: he had obtained the price trend of gold for the next three years, which was like an open-book exam. He was not afraid of any so-called risks, but he just couldn't say it out loud.

Chen Hongzhi: Okay!

Chen Hongzhi: I will have the funds ready over the weekend.

After finishing his conversation with Chen Hongzhi, An Wuyang then spoke with Lin Qianli and Zhan Chunfeng, both of whom expressed their interest in investing.

Gu Mingyue also sent a message to An Wuyang.

Gu Mingyue: Regarding investment in the gold market, do you have any investment limits during the day?

'An Wuyang: How much are you planning to invest?'

Gu Mingyue: One hundred million Xia Guoyuan, can you even afford to eat that much at dawn?

An Wuyang looked at the data sent by Gu Mingyue and smiled. "A mere 100 million Xia Guoyuan? How could Wugengtian not be able to handle that?"
However, the fact that Gu Mingyue dared to invest 100 million Xia Guoyuan shows that she also has high hopes for An Wuyang.

Otherwise, how could Gu Mingyue have invested 100 million Xia Guoyuan?
An Wuyang: We plan to enter the international gold futures market at dawn. Are you sure you want to invest 100 million Xia Guoyuan?

Gu Mingyue: I'm sure.

Gu Mingyue: I know investing involves risk, so I can accept either losing or making money.

'An Wuyang: Okay!'

After An Wuyang and Gu Mingyue finished their conversation, no one else in the capital circle contacted him, clearly indicating that others were skeptical of An Wuyang's entry into the gold market.

An Wuyang then proactively sent out a message within the Shengqing circle.

'An Wuyang: @Everyone: I have something to say.'

An Wuyang explained the plan to enter the international gold futures market at dawn and asked if anyone was interested in joining.

The Shengqing circle and the Beijing circle showed completely different attitudes!

The guys in the capital city circle overthink things, while the guys in the Shengqing circle just blindly rush in.

Whether it was Li Shiyu, Zhu Guanghao, Hou Yuanxin, or Sha Yantao, they all chose to participate in investment projects in the international gold futures market.

Li Shiyu: Brother Wuyang, how much investment space do we have?

Hou Yuanxin: Can we freely allocate our investment amount?

Faced with the two questions, An Wuyang considered them briefly before giving his answer.

'An Wuyang: A total investment of 500 million Xia Guoyuan is allocated to you.'

'An Wuyang: As for the allocation, you can decide for yourselves, as Yuanxin suggests.'

This is An Wuyang's old trick!
He will only provide the overall cake; as for how to divide the cake, that's up to the Shengqing circle to decide internally, and he won't interfere.

'An Wuyang: It would be best to finish these matters and prepare the funds over the weekend, so we can begin operations on Monday.'

'An Wuyang: On Monday, you helped complete the registration and approval procedures for [Wugengtian Financial Management Company].'

Lee Se-woo: No problem.

Hou Yuanxin: This is a small matter; we can resolve it with a simple call.

'All is well: Thank you.'

Sha Yantao: We should be thanking Brother Wuyang for helping us make money.

'Safe and sound: There's also the possibility of losses.'

Hou Yuanxin: It doesn't matter if we lose money; after all, it's an investment, and there are gains and losses!

An Wuyang and the members of Shengqing Circle exchanged ideas for a while before ending the conversation.

But the discussions within the Shengqing circle didn't stop there. Hou Yuanxin, Li Shiyu, and Sha Yantao were discussing how the investment amount should be allocated.

Zhu Guanghao could only listen!
The final allocation plan was simple: the three giants of Shengqing each received an investment quota of 100 million Xia Guoyuan.

Zhu Guanghao benefited from knowing An Wuyang, and because his father was the top official in the Shengqing Police Bureau, he was allocated a total investment of 50 million.

The remaining 150 million quota was divided into three parts, which were then distributed among the three giants of Shengqing to their respective related forces.

For example, Xu Haoran, the second-in-command of Shengqing Customs and a member of Li Shiyu and Zhu Guanghao's faction, was allocated an investment quota of three million. Of course, the allocation of these investment quotas was voluntary and not mandatory. If someone didn't need them, the three giants of Shengqing would naturally take them back for their own use.

Mosk, southern suburbs.

The Petrov family's estate in the southern suburbs.

Ivan Smirnov, a relations expert for Pushkin's team, arrived at the manor gate by car, accompanied by a total of three vehicles and twelve Federal Guard agents.

Given that An Wuyang was almost attacked by the field agents of the Ukrainian Intelligence Agency, when Emperor Pushkin arranged for Ivan to 'accompany' An Wuyang to the Oka River area, he also arranged for agents from the Federal Guard Bureau to accompany him for security.

The manor housekeeper, Elena Korikova, reported to An Wuyang that Ivan had arrived, "Mr. Andy, Mr. Smirnov is already waiting for you in the drawing room."

An Wuyang was eating breakfast when he casually asked, "Where's Anna?"

“I’ve already contacted Anna, she’ll be back soon,” Yelena replied.

An Wuyang picked up his coffee, grabbed a sandwich, and headed towards the living room.

Ivan was indeed already waiting in the reception room.

An Wuyang asked proactively, "Ivan, have you had breakfast?"

Ivan replied affirmatively, "I've already eaten, thank you for your concern, Mr. Ann."

"Wait a moment, I'll have breakfast first, then wash up and get ready before I leave," An Wuyang replied.

“Yes, Mr. An, there’s no need to rush,” Ivan replied politely.

However, An Wuyang was not in a hurry at all. He not only ate slowly but also played on his phone.

How could An Wuyang not guess the meaning behind Pushkin's arrangement for Ivan to accompany him to the Oka River?
Pushkin did not believe his explanation!
I'm afraid even now, Emperor Pushkin still doubts whether he discovered the so-called 'special qualities' in the Oka River at dawn.

Now, having Ivan accompany An Wuyang to the Oka River is ostensibly for convenience and to provide security services, but in reality, it's for surveillance and covert investigation!
Therefore, An Wuyang gave Ivan a little bit of a hard time by deliberately bringing breakfast to meet him and then slowly wasting time, leaving Ivan standing there.

Ivan could certainly tell that An Wuyang was leaving him hanging, but he didn't care at all.

As the relations expert and spokesperson in Pushkin's team, Ivan had encountered countless difficulties, and the difficulties faced by An Wuyang were only the most basic ones.

In fact, An Wuyang was not deliberately making things difficult for Ivan; he was simply expressing his attitude to show that he was not someone to be manipulated.

About half an hour later, Anna arrived at the reception room.

An Wuyang asked proactively, "Have you had breakfast?"

Anna denied it, saying, "Not yet. I went for a run this morning, then went to the group headquarters to handle some matters, and now I'm rushing back."

"Shall we eat something?" An Wuyang suggested.

Anna naturally did not refuse.

Ivan glanced at the time without showing any emotion. It was already close to 10 a.m., and it would take more than three hours to get from Mosk to the Oka River. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to make it before noon.

However, Ivan didn't urge them. What right did he have to urge them?
About fifteen minutes later, Anna finished her breakfast, and An Wuyang was also ready. The sound of helicopter rotors came from the sky.

Three helicopters flew over from a distance and then slowly landed on the estate's helipad.

Anna took the initiative to explain, "Mr. Smirnov, given the long distance to the Oka River and the many uncontrollable factors on the road in icy and snowy weather, we have decided to use a helicopter to fly there."

The three helicopters were urgently procured by the CLC Group. One of them is a business-class Mi-38 helicopter, which features a VIP business configuration and can only accommodate 10 people.

The other two are the Mi-8AMT/Mi-171, the world's most produced helicopter, with a production run of over 1.2 units. The maximum crew capacity is 26 people, including 2 pilots and 24 crew members.

An Wuyang naturally had to travel in the more comfortable Mi-38 helicopter, while the security personnel brought by Ivan, the security personnel arranged by the CLC Group, and some of the security personnel around An Wuyang and Anna would travel in two other Mi-8AMT helicopters.

Both helicopters have speeds exceeding 200 kilometers per hour, meaning they can fly from the southern outskirts of Mosk to the area south of the Oka River in just one hour.

As all security personnel boarded, three helicopters took off and flew in a triangular formation.

The Mi-38 flew in front, escorted by two Mi-8AMTs.

In icy and snowy environments, air travel is far more efficient than ground transportation for commuting, and there are far fewer unexpected situations to be faced.

In less than an hour, before 11 a.m. local time in Moscow, three helicopters arrived at the Oka River, their final destination being a peninsula region encircled by a jade belt.

This is not a traditional grain-growing area; in fact, it feels somewhat abandoned.

After the three helicopters landed, An Wuyang and Anna got out of the Mi-38 business helicopter and looked around at the somewhat barren land.

An Wuyang asked proactively, "Has the land here been sold?"

Ivan immediately picked up his tablet and started checking, then gave a negative answer: "The land here hasn't been sold yet and it's still state-owned."

"Mr. An, are you planning to build a glass greenhouse here?" Ivan asked tentatively.

An Wuyang casually explained, "Let's take a look first. I'm actually not very satisfied with this place because the infrastructure is quite poor. I didn't even see any power supply lines."

"The glass greenhouse we are building needs a sufficient power supply!" An Wuyang added.

The Northern Bear Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom are very different. The infrastructure in the remote areas of the Northern Bear Kingdom is very poor, and even the power supply is not good.

Ivan replied, "If you choose this location, we can provide a dedicated power line for this area."

Whether he is safe or unharmed remains to be seen.

"Ivan, could you check if there are any state-owned land plots that are close to the city and haven't been sold yet?" An Wuyang asked.

Ivan countered, "Do you still want the land near the Oka River?"

“Of course!” An Wuyang answered affirmatively.

Ivan checked the information on his tablet again. After some searching, he replied somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ann, all the land along the Oka River near the city has already been sold."

“After all, land near the Oka River is in high demand,” Ivan added.

The Oka River is the most important grain-producing area near Mosk and the only black soil region, so Ivan wasn't exaggerating; land near the Oka River, especially close to the city, is indeed highly sought after.

An Wuyang frowned slightly. "Not even ten acres of land?"

Anna added, "We only need ten acres of land to build a glass greenhouse."

“Wait a moment, let me take another look,” Ivan replied.

In fact, by this point, Ivan was certain that An Wuyang and Anna's purchase of the land was not due to the discovery of a feature similar to the Taibai Mountains.

Because neither of them specified any particular location!
An Wuyang simply gave the corresponding requirements, and only needed ten acres of land.

Therefore, Ivan can now confirm that the plan to build a glass greenhouse at dawn was simply because An Wuyang was spoiling his girlfriend, and not for any other reason.
