The leader of the bank urged the driver to speed up. It should have taken an hour to drive from the bank to the rolling mill, but under his urging, they arrived in less than half an hour.
Initially, he thought that he was already very fast. After all, it didn't take him long to get the news and set off. The journey was even faster. He was full of confidence and thought that he would be the first to reach the rolling mill. However, he realized that he saw a few good black cars outside the factory.
The license plates of these cars looked very familiar. With a glance, the bank leader already knew the identity of the owners of these cars.
He hurriedly got out of the car and ran to the office building in the factory.
When the bank leader entered the office building and asked about the location of the factory manager's office, he saw the Ministry of Industry's External Relations Department and other small leaders of the government departments waiting outside the factory manager's office.
Even the news from the bank was a bit later than the government.
However, it was also because they were closer to the Red Star Rolling Mill that they had the advantage and arrived outside Su Chen's office first.
"Isn't this President Li of the National Bank?”
The leader of the Ministry of Industry took the lead. Their supervisor had something to do today, so he asked the section chief to negotiate with Su Chen.
"Section Chief Huang, long time no see. What a coincidence that you're here.”
The bank leader smiled and spoke in a relaxed tone as if he had met a drinking buddy, but his heart sank.
He had thought that he would be able to come over, but facing so many small leaders in the government, he was just the president of a national bank. His weight was not enough.
Moreover, even if he had the title of president, it was only a branch, not a head office.
On the other side, the junior leader of the Public Relations Department chuckled.
"You also want the foreign exchange in Factory Manager Su's hands?”
He directly made things clear, making the already tense atmosphere even more awkward.
"It seems that everyone is here for this batch of foreign exchange.”
President Li laughed and appeared very calm, but in his heart, he was already cursing this little leader of the External Relations Department who couldn't read his expression.
It wasn't just the banks that were eyeing the 100,000 dollars, but also the government.
The banks needed the foreign exchange to show their strength, and the government also needed the foreign exchange to act as a facade.
They didn't have to have the money, but if a department had 100,000 US dollars in foreign exchange reserves, the higher-ups would look at them more. This way, the future department funds would be secured, and even the leaders could get their own promotions.
Therefore, they were determined to get the 100,000 USD.
Su Chen heard their movements from inside. He stopped reading the information and walked out to look at them.
"Manager Su, your factory received a hundred thousand dollars in foreign exchange today. How do you plan to deal with it?”
President Li seized the opportunity and was the first to speak.
"This 100,000 USD is only the first batch. There will be a steady stream of foreign exchange in the future.”
Su Chen was very confident. After all, this 100,000 USD was only an advance payment. After the 100,000 gas cans were produced, more USD would be transferred over.
Not to mention that he now had a new idea that could take advantage of more big dogs.
President Li's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Does Manager Su mean that you intend to hand over the foreign exchange?”
"It's no problem to hand over this amount of foreign exchange, but you have to use something to exchange for it.”
When Su Chen said this, the small leaders of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Public Relations, who could not get a word in edgewise, also had their eyes lit up.
If Su Chen planned to sell the money, they definitely could not afford it, but it was much more convenient to exchange things.
The junior leader of the tax department immediately made the decision.
"The tax rate of the rolling mill is a little high now. If you want to take out this foreign exchange, I'll reduce the tax rate to the lowest.”
The leader of the Ministry of Land and Transportation did not want to be outdone and quickly stood up.
"Your steel rolling mill doesn't have enough factory buildings now. Didn't you come to approve the expansion of industrial land some time ago? Now, the three acres of land next door will be divided to you. It is also an industrial land. You can use it directly for the rolling mill. You can also build a new road to the entrance of the rolling mill.”
These were all practical benefits, and Su Chen was a little tempted when he heard them.
These were indeed what the rolling mill urgently needed, especially a new road. On the way here from the Consul of the Camel Kingdom some time ago, Su Chen had already noticed that this road was a little too old. It was just an ordinary dirt road.
If this road was built into the popular asphalt road, it would be more comfortable to drive.
Su Chen nodded when he heard the benefits they offered. Even if it was just the benefits from the policy, it was enough to cover the cost of 100,000 USD.
The bank president gritted his teeth and said his offer.
"I'm willing to use one million to buy the 100,000 USD in your hands. In addition, I can give you the greatest discount when you trade with our bank in the future.”
Su Chen saw that the benefits he could get were almost there, so he did not insist on more and agreed.
"Sure. In that case, I'll transfer the US dollars directly to your bank account. Then, you can transfer the money to our factory's corporate account.”
After Su Chen agreed, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They were worried that Su Chen would hide the foreign exchange dollars in his hands.
However, Su Chen knew very well that money was just a number in his hands. Only by making it move could he keep making money.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, all the leaders said goodbye to Su Chen. They still had their own things to do and could not stay in Su Chen's factory forever.
"Comrades, take care."
Su Chen sent them out of the factory, and everyone had a smile on their faces.
Even if Su Chen did not treat them to a meal or give them any benefits, these leaders were still very satisfied.
The purpose of coming here today had been perfectly achieved, so they all left in satisfaction.
Su Chen was also very satisfied. The rolling mill was now his, so the benefits given to the rolling mill were also his.
Although Su Chen seemed to be at a disadvantage now, after all, if he wanted to exchange the US dollars, he could at most receive a ratio of 200:1.
However, US dollars were just money in his hands. It would be best if he could exchange it for these substantial benefits.
Now, everyone did not pay attention to these benefits. They thought that it was just a matter of asking. However, they were all benefits that they could not get in the future. Su Chen had already earned all of them.
One had to know that in the future, it would be extremely difficult to build a road or approve a piece of land.
If he exchanged 100,000 dollars with Su Chen now, he could get countless benefits in the future.
This was what he valued.
