Just as it was late at night in China, the overseas branches of 14 Chinese ocean shipping companies received an inexplicable call.
On the phone, the other party asked the shipping company to arrange a cargo ship with a standard number of containers to head to Xia country as soon as possible!
All cargo ships are empty. Do not store anything!
At first, the ten companies thought that they had received a harassing call.
After all, no one with a brain problem would sail an empty ship all the way to China!
Not to mention the fact that the rental fee for an empty ship with a cargo capacity of about 200,000 tons was 35,000 USD per day.
Not to mention that a freighter with a full load of 200,000 tons of cargo would consume 15,000 dollars of heavy oil every day under economic navigation.
The rental of a container alone was about 700 dollars per one-way trip, and a freighter with a cargo capacity of about 200,000 tons could carry 10,000 containers.
In other words, just renting these containers would cost seven million USD!
If an ocean-going freighter took 30 days to ship, then such a freighter with 10,000 containers would cost 8.5 million US dollars a month!
Who would spend 8.5 million dollars to ship a bunch of empty boxes?
However, just two minutes after they hung up the phone, the company's finance department suddenly realized that there was an additional three million USD in their company account!
Then, that phone call came in again. As a show of sincerity, he had already transferred three million US dollars into the other party's bank account. Can we have a good chat now?
The heads of the ten shipping companies were all dumbfounded!
A few hours later, 14 cargo ships loaded with 10,000 to 14,000 empty containers set sail from the world's major docks towards China!
Needless to say, the person who called the fourteen ocean shipping companies was Shen Lang!
The reason why he only asked for 14 ships was because he only had 42 million dollars in his overseas account.
Three million USD for one ship and 42 million for 14 ships. That was just right!
Judging from the route, the closest to China were six cargo ships departing from Kangaroo Kingdom and Shate. They were expected to arrive in China in about half a month.
These six cargo ships could carry about 1.5 million tons of iron ore. Based on the calculation of 30 USD per ton, it could bring Shen Lang 45 million USD in profit.
In addition, the shipping fee would be paid by the Chinese government, and he could recover another 18 million USD.
In other words, in half a month, he would have 63 million USD on hand. At that time, he could immediately arrange for the second batch of freighters to set off!
Under ideal circumstances, Shen Lang estimated that he would be able to clear out all 80 million tons of iron ore in about three months.
At that time, his funds would reach 2.4 billion USD!
Delighted!
……
Time flew by and it was the first day of the new year.
On this morning, Shen Lang brought his sister and niece to visit the neighbors and friends who had helped their father when he was seriously ill. While they were paying their New Year's greetings, they also returned the life-saving money that they had lent to the Shen family with interest.
After a round of visits, Shen Lang had given away all the gifts in the trunk of his car. Even the debts that his family owed were basically paid off!
After returning home, Shen Lang placed the promissory notes that he had collected in his father's hands. His father had insisted on writing down these promissory notes and handing them over to the other party!
Shen Lang said," Dad, you and Mom should quit your jobs after the New Year." I plan to open a small supermarket and hire a few people. You and Mom can help me manage the accounts in the supermarket! As for the annual medical expenses, he didn't even need to worry about them!”
" This…" His father seemed to be hesitant.
Seeing Father Shen's expression, Mother Shen immediately rolled her eyes and said,""What is this? Your son is successful now. He has a house and a car. He doesn't lack the money you earn from work. What's there to hesitate about?”
Shen Lang's sister, Shen Hong, also chimed in,""Yes, Dad! Now that Brother is capable, you and Mom should enjoy life!”
Under the persuasion of his family, Shen Lang's father finally nodded.""Alright then! I'll resign with the leader after the new year!”
