Chapter 06: Chapter Six Melchers
Jiang Lin was a little surprised. He had checked the information before and thought that it would take at least forty silver dollars to exchange for one tael of gold. Unexpectedly, it was five dollars less. Not bad.
"Okay, changed."
Then, Jiang Lin took out the 100,000 silver notes he had on him and handed them all to Zhu Jun.
"Among them, twenty thousand can be exchanged for gold, and the rest can be exchanged for banknotes of one hundred denominations."
Zhu Jun reached out to take it, and his eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Lin. He didn't expect that this young man could come up with so much money. It was beyond his expectation, but after taking a closer look at Jiang Lin's dress, it was not surprising.
.
By exchanging silver dollars for gold, their bank account also made some profit, and the transaction was not a loss.
"Mr. Jiang, wait a moment. I'll go take care of it for Mr. Jiang right now."
There was another period of waiting, and then, when Zhu Jun appeared, he was followed by two men, carrying a small box that looked a bit heavy.
"Mr. Jiang, the gold you need has been prepared for you. Please check it."
Opening the box, small gold bars appeared in front of Jiang Lin's eyes. He didn't feel anything when holding the banknote before, but when he saw these hundreds of small gold bars, Jiang Lin was still a little shocked.
"There are five hundred and seventy-two gold bars here, totaling five hundred and seventy-two taels."
Zhu Jun didn't mention the extra half a tael, which could be regarded as his kindness. Making friends like Jiang Lin would be beneficial to their bank account.
"These are 80,000 silver dollar bills, please keep them." Then, Zhu Jun brought over hundreds of silver bills, which looked like a dozen, which was very bluffing.
Jiang Lin took a deep look at Zhu Jun and nodded to him: "Thank you very much, Boss Zhu."
"You're welcome, Mr. Jiang. If you have business in the future, just take care of our bank account." Zhu Jun said very politely.
At this time, Jiang Chengdong and Jiang Chengshan hurriedly came over to help take over the box containing the gold. Seeing the three people leaving, Zhu Jun shouted to the waiter: "Young man, go get someone to buy a table for me at Yuehe Tower.
Master, I want to eat more today."
"Yes, sir."
...
When the three Jiang and Lin people came out, ten other people quickly gathered around to help.
In the Laifu Inn, Jiang Lin gave Jiang Chengdong 10,000 yuan in silver notes, and then asked: "Brother Dong, I would like to trouble you to go back and help me find a good house in the town, and then buy more land in the town, as much as you can buy."
, it’s best to take stock of the shops in the town, as many as you can, and help me recruit a group of people from the clan, I want to set up a self-defense security group.”
After thinking about it, maybe 10,000 yuan might not be enough, so I gave Jiang Chengdong another 20,000 yuan.
Looking at the huge sum of 30,000 silver dollars in his hand, Jiang Chengdong said excitedly: "Brother Lin, do you just believe me so much?"
"You are my cousin. If I don't even believe you, who can I believe?" Jiang Lin patted Jiang Chengdong's hand.
"Here are three people who will follow Brother Dong, Cheng Jin. You can also go and help recruit people. From now on, you will be the leader of our security team." He happened to be one of the people with a gun, so he could protect Jiang Chengdong and return safely.
Jiang Chengjin was stunned for a moment, and then when he saw Jiang Lin still looking at him, he quickly walked out.
"Brother Lin, do you mean that I will be the leader of the security team in the future?" His expression was a little incredulous, but more of a surprise.
"That's right, you have served as a soldier and fought in wars, but don't lead others without qualifications." Jiang Lin joked.
Jiang Chengjin became excited immediately: "Brother Lin, just be optimistic. I will lead a good team for you and ensure that you are satisfied." After saying that, he knelt down on one knee directly in front of Jiang Lin to show his loyalty to him.
Jiang Lin did not refuse and patted him on the shoulder: "Get up, I believe you."
"Brother Dong, is it okay?"
"Don't worry, Brother Lin."
Jiang Chengdong nodded solemnly, and then took the three people to go first. He had to go to the county government to issue a certificate before he could recruit members of the security team. With the Jiang family's status in Nanming, these were minor matters, mainly about money.
Otherwise, Nan Ming would have established a security team long ago.
The remaining nine people all knelt down in front of Jiang Lin: "Brother Lin, we will all listen to you from now on."
Jiang Lin nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, since the brothers said so, I will do my part. Come and have a drink with me."
After drinking in the tavern and resting for the night, Jiang Lin took the nine people to find the car to Shenjiang.
Shenjiang, this future international metropolis, has already seen its future glory. It is much more beautiful than an ordinary city, and is not much different from a modern small county town. It has a very modern atmosphere.
People were coming and going on the street. Wearing suits was no longer unusual, but rather normal, and there were quite a few foreigners.
However, Jiang Lin didn't come here just to see the city scenery. He came here to see Merchers & Co., which was the largest foreign company here in Germany and had done arms business with many warlords in the country.
Jiang Lin's goal is Germany's shocking handicraft-level firearms.
The entrance of Meishishi Foreign Trade Co., Ltd.
"Chengshan, keep an eye on them and don't cause trouble. I'll go in and do some work. Xiaosan'er, you come with me."
"Yes, Brother Lin."
"Yes, Brother Lin."
Xiao San'er is very clever, so Jiang Lin felt it was a pity not to take Xiao San'er with him.
The two of them walked all the way to the lobby of Merchers and found the counter.
Although this is a German company, the people working at the counter are actually Chinese.
"Hello, do you need anything?"
"We are not living in a young age." Xiao San'er said displeased.
The lady at the counter felt awkward for a moment and quickly recovered: "Hello, do you need anything?"
"I want to see the manager of your foreign bank. I have a business to do with him."
"Sorry, I can't make the decision on this."
The manager of the foreign bank was not something she, an ordinary teller, could contact.
"It's okay, just report it to your superiors. I believe the manager will come."
Jiang Lin's words were very confident. Coupled with his tall posture and decent clothes, the teller had a good impression of him. Maybe he was not lying and he did have business to discuss with the manager.
Of course, tellers can only report the matter truthfully to their supervisor.
Not long after, a foreign supervisor appeared in front of Jiang and Lin.
"Excuse me, are you looking for us, the manager of the foreign bank?"
Jiang Lin had difficulty speaking in broken Chinese, so he had to switch to German to communicate with him.
"Yes, I have a big deal that I want to talk to the manager of the foreign bank. It may bring huge benefits to both of us."
The pure Berlin accent immediately stunned the middle-aged German foreigners.
"Oh my god, you can speak German so well."
Compared to the foreigner's surprise, Xiao San'er looked at Jiang Lin with a look of disbelief. Without a chance to see Xiao San'er's surprise, Jiang Lin continued:
"Let me introduce myself formally, Jiang Lin, from Shanyin County, who once studied in the United States."
The foreigner honestly stretched out his hand and shook Jiang Lin's hand and said:
"Leon Lucas, nice to meet you, Mr. Jiang."
"I didn't expect that you learned our German language while studying in the United States. When I first heard your accent, I thought I was back in Berlin."
"Thank you, Mr. Lucas. Now take me to see your manager."
"Oh oh oh, yes, please come this way."
