Chapter 104 Order Freighter

The minerals handed over by Leziyeh can be included in Wu Yong's name at the end of the month, but the mine owners are still natives in South Africa, and they are all puppets of Wu Yong. There is no way to do so. The largest port is controlled by Momani. Wu Yong's many mineral veins can no longer meet his needs by shipping from other small ports. Only in this way can Momani's vigilance be minimized.

There are difficulties, and these need to be overcome one by one. The most important thing is the armed defense force and fleet. Wu Yong's current eight cargo ships are all medium-sized cargo ships with a cost of 4.5 million US dollars each. To meet the current needs, such cargo ships need to be increased to 120. According to this scale, the minimum armed protection force is 3,600.

The armed forces of the freighter can also ask the close security company to be responsible. The protection of the mine veins must be its own people, and the gap in manpower is not a little bit. Wu Yong picked up the satellite encrypted phone again and called the old man.

"Grandpa, you know everything?"

"I know a little, I guess you're going to call me too!" From his tone, Wu Yong heard that the old man was in a good mood and he relaxed a little.

"I'm short of people. Zhu Qi and his training alone cannot meet my needs now. Grandpa, please think of a solution for me!"

The old man did not directly answer Wu Yong's words: "Yongyong, how do you plan to arrange the remaining raw ore?"

"Arrangement?" Wu Yong was slightly stunned. Before he solved the problem in front of him, he had never thought about this problem at all: "I haven't thought about it yet!"

Wu Yong smiled bitterly in front of the phone. What he felt most deeply now was the feeling of snake swallowing elephants. He didn't want to have a greedy snake swallowing elephants, but the current things are indeed something he personally cannot swallow.

"You think this is OK? If you eliminate the four companies you promised to give to, can you give the remaining ore arrangements to your second uncle?"

Wu Yong thought for a moment and replied, "This is no problem. Uncle II arranged it to help me, so I can save me from worrying!"

This is the first time that the old man talked to Wu Yong in a negotiated tone. From this, we can also see that Wu Yong's position in the mind of the old man is no longer comparable to that of an ordinary businessman.

"Okay, I will help you solve your manpower problem. Well, I will solve it within fifteen days, but you have to find a way to deal with the transport fleet. If the funds are insufficient, go find your sister-in-law!"

"Okay, I understand, but the problem of manpower must be solved, otherwise we will suffer a lot!" Wu Yong nodded. The problem of the fleet was slightly lighter than that of the armed protection personnel, and Wu Yong could still tell the difference.

"Don't worry, I don't even believe what my grandfather said?" A hearty laugh came from the old man. Wu Yong knew that there was no need to worry about the biggest problem that troubled him now. He just needs to solve the fleet.

It is definitely a big deal to buy more than 100 cargo ships at a time. It is not easy to avoid being noticed. It is actually not easy to do this well. Fortunately, Wu Yong now has a dock on hand, and forming such a fleet will not seem to have any problems on the surface.

Secondly, the funding issue, Wu Yong really wants to find Wu Mian this time. More than 100 cargo ships are not a small number. After Wu Yong paid Nelson 500 million US dollars and supported Zhu Qi's mercenary construction, there was no shortage of funds left. This was the result of him utilizing the group's funds. If he wanted to form a large team, he had to remit a batch of funds in a short time.

Since Guo Haitao’s incident, Wu Yong’s least wanted to deal with was Wu Mian. The funds he bought was so tight last time, so he would rather mortgage it out of the communications company than to find Wu Mian. Now that the electronics company is not listed, he has to go to Wu Mian to borrow money. He will not be able to borrow so much money from the bank in a short period of time, not to mention that Wu Yong is not in China yet.

Wu Mian is very easy to talk to. It is probably because the old man said hello in advance. As soon as Wu Yong opened his mouth, Wu Mian lent him one billion US dollars in funds with interest calculated at the lowest level at that time.

With money, Wu Yong immediately called Nelson. The fleet formed by Wu Yong this time must be divided into several parts, of which South Africa must have one-third so that others can pay attention to him to the lowest level. Even so, Wu Yong cannot guarantee whether he will be targeted by the United States.

Guo Haitao also took action. Guo Haitao used the Hong Kong terminal to form one-third, and the remaining one-third were placed in Singapore. Singapore has the world's largest container terminal, and there are thousands of ships entering and leaving every day, and dozens of additional ships will not cause any reaction at all.

Time passes by day, and purchasing freighters is not something that can be solved in a day or two. The domestic freighter manufacturing level is still a bit behind. Although freighters of 6,000-tonnage can also be made, it takes too long. Wu Yong did not intend to place all the freighters orders in China, so he only asked Guo Haitao to order twenty ships from several major domestic freighters companies, and the rest must be ordered abroad.

On the morning of January 20, the boss of Norwegian VLCC Shipping Company had a joyful smile on his face. He learned good news last night that a South African trade and transportation company was going to order 30 8,000-tonnage cargo ships from him, at a discounted price of 6 million US dollars each, which is also a large order of nearly 200 million US dollars, which is equivalent to their daily orders for the first quarter of the freighter.

As excited as the VLCC boss are the Royal Steam Manufacturing Factory and the German Machinery and Shipping Company. Their boss has also received orders from two companies, Singapore and Hong Kong, and 60 freighters of 8,000 tons. The other party has sent people to inspect. If it is appropriate, the order of more than 300 million US dollars will probably fall into their pockets.

Ordering freighters from these three companies was a decision made by Wu Yong and Guo Haitao after discussing together. With the twenty 6,000-tonne cargo ships ordered in China, Wu Yong will add 110 freighters, which is not as high as before, but the tonnage is much higher, which can fully meet the current demand of Wu Yong.

However, one thing made Wu Yong quite helpless. All the delivery dates for all the freighters will be half a year later. Even if they were godfathers in batches, Wu Yong could only receive the first batch of forty freighters at the end of March. This was achieved based on the fact that these manufacturers had some inventory.

Wu Yong also understood that this matter was too urgent. Compared with the freighter Wu Yong was the manpower issue. The mine vein of Laziye had been delivered, and it was almost the end of January. The manpower that the old man promised to help solve it has not been sent here yet.
