Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 881 Sanders' Plan

"Shell is going to sell its assets in the UK?" Chen Yang immediately became interested.

The UK accounts for a large part of Shell's layout in Europe, and at this time even the UK assets have begun to be sold.

It seems that there is really something wrong with this huge monster.

Seeing Chen Yang's expression, Archimonde quickly said, "After several rounds of meetings, the company plans to sell some of its assets."

"Among them are two ports on the British side, two oil companies, a shipyard and an office building."

"In addition to these, there are three damaged oil fields and a port in North Africa."

Chen Yang looked at Archimonde with a slight frown and said, "Do you have any detailed information? Let me take a look first."

Archimonde quickly opened his briefcase, took out a thick stack of information and handed it to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang flipped through the information and took a look. The two factories were located in the eastern suburbs of Paris. They were quite large and seemed to be oil factories specifically responsible for supplying the Navy Department.

An office building is located in the city center. If converted into Chinese square meters, its floor area is nearly 14,000 square meters, or about 220 acres.

Plus three damaged oil fields in North Africa and a terminal built with money from Shell.

With so many assets, it would cost about 60 to 70 million pounds.

"Minister Chen, what do you think?" Archimonde asked expectantly.

Shell's failed North African oil investment and Chen Yang's subsequent attack have caused the company to have cash flow problems.

If these assets can be exchanged for some cash, it will greatly reduce the pressure on the group.

Moreover, there is an ongoing war in North Africa, and the headquarters now advises to focus its work on the Asian region.

Southeast Asia is still rich in oil and minerals, including Indonesia, Myanmar, the South Pacific region, and especially Borneo.

The oil there is of very good quality and can be supplied to the navy without almost any refining.

"Yes, I am interested in these." Chen Yang nodded slowly and said, "However, we are talking business. I will leave the information for now. I need to find a professional to make a detailed acquisition plan."

Archimonde nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course. I will be staying in Shanghai for a while. Minister Chen, if you have anything you want to know, you can come to me at any time."

"By the way, we are already preparing the oil you requested and expect it to be delivered to Japan in September."

Chen Yang nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Archimonde, there shouldn't be any problems this time."

"You've had problems so many times, I hope your oil will arrive on time this time."

"Of course." Archimonde said seriously, "Headquarters also attaches great importance to the transaction with Minister Chen."

"Please rest assured. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Chen Yang stood up and said, "Mr. Archimonde, take care. I have something else to do and will not see you off."

"No, bye..."

Shanghai, Hongkou District, garden house.

Sanders stood in front of the window, his eyes fixed on the distance, as if he was admiring the distant scenery, but his expression seemed to be somewhat worried.

Soon, footsteps were heard from behind, and Rogers walked into the study room, exhausted.

"Mr. Sanders, according to your instructions, the HKMA has completed the procedures."

"We can take out the two tons of gold pledged there as early as tomorrow afternoon."

"The freighter at Wusongkou is also ready and will depart at 11 o'clock tomorrow night,"

"Right now, only the special warehouse has Colonel Shinoda's consent yet."

Sanders frowned and asked, "What's the reason? Does he think we gave too little?"

Rogers was silent for a moment and said, "Fifty thousand yen is too little. He wants to double it."

"I thought he had a big appetite. It's just 50,000 yen. Just give it to him." Sanders said slowly, "The important thing is to make him do what we want."

"Change those thousand cases of penicillin."

"Although we didn't bring back five tons of gold this time, it was worthwhile to bring back five thousand boxes of penicillin."

"These drugs still have a large market in Egypt and Greece."

Rogers thought for a while, then said cautiously, "Boss, aren't you afraid that President Shimazu will find out if you do this?"

"Haha." Sanders turned around and looked at Rogers and said, "Shimazu Yoshio is good in every way. The only bad thing about him is his arrogance."

"He thinks we have to rely on his sales network to make money. What a fool he is."

"China isn't the only place in this world."

"Medicine is a good thing. As long as we can take it out, we won't have to worry about not finding a buyer."

"You want to take money from us? It's just a dream."

Rogers nodded, gave a thumbs up and said, "Boss, you are very thoughtful."

Sanders seemed to enjoy it very much, and the smile on his lips was harder to suppress than AK's.

"By the way, have you found the coolie I asked you to look for?"

Rogers nodded and said, "Boss, don't worry. The Shanghai Stock Exchange doesn't have much else right now, but it has a lot of people."

"I found a group of coolies, gave each of them five dollars, and the leader ten dollars, and everything was arranged."

Sanders was still a little worried, and said slowly: "This place in Shanghai is dominated by Minister Chen."

"These coolies you found won't have anything to do with him, right?"

Rogers shook his head and said, "It shouldn't matter. I found them all in the name of the business, and everyone stayed in the warehouse after receiving the money."

"Let them go tomorrow after we finish the work. All confidentiality has been ensured, and no one will leak the news."

"Hey, boss, it's strange. We have been in China for so long, but our plans have been ruined several times, and we have hardly made any money."

"If we leave this time, that business will become a discarded pawn. It's really annoying to think about it."

Sanders sighed and said, "The reason why the Shanghai Stock Exchange failed is because Cohen, this fool, underestimated the people here."

"If he hadn't insisted on placing all his hopes on the Soviets, our plans wouldn't have failed again and again."

"I reminded him a long time ago not to talk about the spirit of contract with the Soviets, but he just wouldn't listen..."

Rogers nodded thoughtfully and said, "I will never come to China again when I return to Europe this time."

“This place is really evil.”

Sanders smiled and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of in China. It all comes down to money."

"However, our style of doing things is indeed not suitable for this place. I received a telegram from Europe this morning saying that Shell is preparing to dispose of some assets."

"Once we sell this batch of drugs, we can acquire some assets and regain a foothold in Europe."

“That’s where we can show our skills...”
