“What’s wrong with Rubeni, what’s wrong with Rubeni?”

Jiang Jia asked immediately.

Song Wenbin hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to explain to a woman who couldn't be beaten. But when he saw Kong Mao looking at him, he had no choice but to sigh. After all, Kong Mao would still accompany him on the voyage for a long time.

"These are all my guesses and are not accurate. Just listen to them."

Song Wenbin said: "I don't know if any of you still remember the first time we went to the house in Rubeni. There were some fallen leaves floating in the yard of the house. At that time, I felt something was wrong, because we lived at that level. People in wealthy areas usually have very clean entrances to their homes. The Chinese villas we passed along the way were all very tidy. Moreover, when we entered the house in Rubeni, there was no one in such a big place. No, that means that place is not where he lives, at least not where he usually lives."

"This is normal." Jiang Jia said immediately: "It's not surprising that a rich man like Rubeni owns several houses. Maybe he lives elsewhere or even abroad."

"Of course it's not surprising." Song Wenbin said calmly: "But when I followed Rubei into the yacht, I also didn't see a service staff on the yacht. Isn't it strange? Think about it, if Rubei Ni doesn't live here, and he didn't come here on a yacht, so how did he get there? You know, I didn't see Rubeni's luxury car next to that house. I mean, it's normal for someone who owns a yacht to drive a Ferrari Bugatti. "

Kong Mao nodded and said: "I also noticed something unusual about this. In fact, after you left, I asked Rubeni specifically why there were no service staff on the yacht. The explanation he gave me was that he gave his employees a holiday. , because he has no travel plans for the time being."

"This is a lie." Song Wenbin said immediately: "There are tea leaves in the crisper, which shows that he knows the habits of Eastern people. But we are obviously from mainland China, and he does not make us tea but brings us sparkling wine, which shows that he has no knowledge at all. There was still time to prepare hot water.

What's even more outrageous is that the temperature of the sparkling wine in the crisper is actually normal temperature, not ice at all, which means that this yacht has not been started at all before we came, and it does not even have electricity. "

As he spoke, Song Wenbin sneered, "But isn't this abnormal? There is no dust on the wooden floor and furniture, but the sparkling wine is at room temperature and not even iced. It has been taken care of, but not completely taken care of. What kind of contradiction do you think? How to explain it? What’s even more ridiculous is that he actually reminded me to take off my shoes before getting on the boat. Of course I can understand his thoughts. The boat is very clean. But come on, I am the one who bought the yacht. He is Afraid I’d stain his boat?”

As soon as Song Wenbin said this, Jiang Jia immediately felt the omnipresent abnormality. She opened her mouth in surprise and murmured: "Then...this...what does this mean...?"

"This shows that this guy specially cleaned the yacht inside and out before we came. The cleanliness of this boat is the fruit of his labor, so he cherishes it very much." Song Wenbin sneered.

Jiang Jia stared at him dumbfounded, her mouth open enough to fit an egg in. Kong Mao also subconsciously slowed down the car and listened attentively.

"But even though you observed it very carefully... Based on this alone, you can conclude... that this yacht is worth 10 million?" Kong Mao murmured.

"Again, I don't know how much the yacht is worth. I don't know anything about yachts. But I only know one thing. Rubeni needs cash." Song Wenbin said firmly.

"Of course I can understand this. If he didn't need cash, how could he sell the yacht." Jiang Jia came back to his senses and said.

"It's not an ordinary desire. When I felt that the sparkling wine was at room temperature, I suggested asking him if he could take a look at the villa above. He agreed immediately without even a little hesitation."

Song Wenbin raised his lips and said with a smile: "There is no doubt that that house is also a house for sale. There is no temperature or female fragrance on the bed. The water in the swimming pool has been warmed by the sun. I don't know how long it has been. It hasn’t been replaced, and the fallen leaves from winter haven’t been cleared away yet.”

Song Wenbin took out the withered leaf as a souvenir from his pocket and said with a smile: "Of course, more importantly, I found a damp and dark rag in a compartment near the swimming pool, as well as several black Huhu mop. That confirmed my suspicion that Rubeni was cleaning the yacht before we came."

Jiang Jia looked at the dead leaf and felt a little confused.

She couldn't understand why a leaf contained such huge and incredible information.

Song Wenbin put the leaves on the water glass and said: "So after I went back, I immediately asked Rubeni if ​​he could sell me a house. I think you have also seen the smile on Rubeni's face. Of course, this is not because He was happy that I wanted to buy that house. The reason why he was happy was because I had strong financial resources and could buy a yacht and a house at the same time. He was very happy to do this business with me. This business made him a lot of money.

However, when I asked him the price of the house, he couldn't tell me and even said nonsense that he wanted to discuss it with his wife. Isn't it obvious that the house is indeed for sale, but it is not Rubeni's house. I think there are two possible reasons why he parked the yacht here. One is that the yacht and the house complement each other, and the two can winwin when put together and enhance each other.

The other is the low cost of using the private pier here. I have already asked about the price when I went to the pier during this period. The berthing fee for such a ship alone will cost millions a year, but no matter which type it is. ....”

Song Wenbin smiled and shook his head, regretting: "I own a yacht, but I can't even pay for the parking fees, and I can't even turn on the electricity on the yacht. In my heart, Rubeni has almost been declared bankrupt. He has no chance at all." He didn’t buy the yacht because he wanted to change it, he sold it because he was bankrupt.”

Jiang Jia looked at the leaves beside her and felt that her brain was trembling.

For some reason, the moment her curiosity disappeared, she began to feel fear. Just met once...that guy named Rubeni's background has been exposed. Only a few mistresses and a few dogs were dug up.

She lowered her head silently and sat a little further away from Song Wenbin.

Kong Mao simply parked the Rolls-Royce on the side of the road and asked: "I admit that what you said makes sense. Rubeni may indeed have encountered a financial crisis, so he sold the yacht. But why did he Agreeing to sell the yacht to you for 10 million, this is the most incomprehensible to me. If you don't accept such a yacht, he can sell it to others. I still think this yacht is worth at least 1,500 Ten thousand dollars, why would he rather lose his blood to sell it to you, and even make three phone calls within a week?”

Song Wenbin smiled, looked at Jiang Jia who looked dull, and asked, "Can you guess the reason?"

Jiang Jia looked at his face and said with a pale face, "Cash."

"That's right." Song Wenbin nodded, "valuing 15 million and selling 15 million immediately are two different things. I think in the entire Nanyang, let alone 15 million US dollars, almost no one can give him 10 million in an instant. I don't know Kong Mao, did you notice that when this guy finally called me, he was sullen and asked when we would give him the money?"

Kong Mao suddenly realized: "It seems to be true."

"He is eager for cash, and even sells the yacht at a discount to get a lot of cash." Song Wenbin sneered and said, by the way, Jiang Jia, what did you say he did before?

"director....."

"director."

Song Wenbin couldn't help but think of Baoli, and said with some contempt, "This profession is really easy to get rich and lose, and it's even easier to get involved in politics. I think this guy is so eager to get money, maybe he is in a hurry to run away. .”

"I understand." Kong Mao said thoughtfully: "I occasionally heard some news while running a boat in the first half of last year. The current situation in Indonesia is not that stable. I'm afraid..."

Kong Mao cautiously said nothing more.

"I don't care why he had problems."

Song Wenbin shrugged: "In short, if this guy has a good reputation and influence in the country, it will definitely not be our turn to buy this ship, and his own inner circle will definitely digest it. How many more can it be our foreigners' turn to buy it?" There is a problem. If he has his own problem, who will I kill if I don’t kill him?”

Song Wenbin said, thinking of his vantage that he had not yet had time to get rid of. Before he was accepted by the seals, Mr. Li would not pay attention to him at all. But after he was accepted by Seal, Mr. Li didn't even pay back the price of his car. But looking back at Ma Qiang, a vantage has been continuously reduced in price but still cannot be sold. This made Song Wenbin couldn't help but sigh that the world is actually the same everywhere, going in circles after circles.

Although Song Wenbin said it as a matter of course, the two men who were accompanying him fell silent.

Kong Mao suddenly laughed for some reason. While laughing, he shook his head and sighed: "Good guy... young people nowadays... are really scary..."

Rolls Royce restarted, but Kong Mao was still immersed in Song Wenbin's reasoning. While driving, I laughed from time to time, which was a bit scary.



Jiang Jia on the side was relieved from her fear at this moment. Compared with the first time they met, she had completely changed her face.

"Wow, you are so awesome..."

Jiang Jia put her hand on his arm and stroked it back and forth, and asked in a grandiose manner: "Young handsome boy, why did you come to Indonesia? You are not really here to invest, are you?"

Song Wenbin shook her hand away and said, "Don't ask about work."

"When this project is over, do you want to come work in our finance department?"

Jiang Jia reluctantly came over again, touched his shoulder and said fussingly: "I know you are from Seal Information and Culture Department, and Jiang Lu is not easy to take care of, but the people in our Finance Department are easy to talk to and easy to work with." , and there are many beautiful girls. Come on, think about it~~"

Song Wenbin turned his head and glanced at Jiang Jia.

Jiang Jia immediately let go of his arm, leaned against the car door and spoke very quickly: "Don't look at me like this, I have no secrets."

"Thank you, I refuse."

.......

.......

Although Jiang Jia and Kong Mao were not good at bargaining, they were extremely clumsy when handling official documents and the like. In just one afternoon, they transferred the ship's documents to the Seal Company's name.

However, when Song Wenbin took the tanker to refuel the ship, he really felt a little pain. This thing is no better than a car. Just filling it up once requires nearly 10,000 liters of gas. Even if calculated at 3 US dollars per liter, the refueling cost for this trip alone is 30,000 US dollars. When converted into RMB, his vantage still has a fuel consumption of nearly 10,000 liters. It’s not enough to refuel the yacht ten times.

And this does not include the cost of berthing at the dock, labor costs, and maintenance costs, if these costs are included. Then the daily expenses of a yacht are almost astronomical. No wonder Rubeni is so eager to get rid of it.

Song Wenbin just stood on the deck, looking at the squirming pipes of the oil tanker. He seemed to be able to see the cost of the trip beating crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If the rocket engineer had the help of the ground command system after launching the rocket, the only help he had on this trip was a record of a Ming Dynasty eunuch six hundred years ago.

He didn't even dare to think about the tremendous pressure he would have faced if Zheng He's lost treasure had not been found. The travel expenses alone were enough to declare the end of his career.

But Jiang Jia couldn't feel the heavy pressure on the shoulders of the young man next to her. After completing all the procedures on the yacht, she was extremely excited and took her mobile phone and took selfies on the deck. She was probably going to go to a friend's house. Circle showed off.

Song Wenbin came to the captain's room, where Kong Mao was checking various parameters of the yacht. Song Wenbin stood beside him and said: "Due to the special nature of this mission, I will not recruit other crew members except you, so this time When sailing, you not only have to take care of the captain, but you may also need to take charge of logistics and other tasks.”

Kong Mao is a very calm man. He nodded and said: "This is natural, but don't worry. This kind of yacht is inherently entertainment-oriented. It is very simple to drive and does not require too many operators. Even people who have not systematically learned how to drive can still drive. How about I take you to the sea to try it out later?"

Before Song Wenbin could say anything, Jiang Jia, who was holding her cell phone, was taking selfies all the way to the captain's cabin, and even wanted to take pictures with the captain and owner.

But shipowner Song Wenbin stopped Jiang Jia and said, "Use your Seal connections to contact the seller and list the ship for $15 million."

"You want to sell the boat?"

Kong Mao asked incomprehensively: "Don't you still want to use it?"

Jiang Jia said excitedly: "Wow!! If this can be sold, wouldn't we make millions of dollars this time??"

"What a beautiful idea." Song Wenbin said with a sneer: "How can money be so easy to make? How many people in this world can spend more than 100 million yuan to buy a second-hand resale yacht? People with this money have already customized it. , God knows how long that Rubeni guy waited before we came, we can only sell as much as we can, and if it doesn’t sell, we will lower the price.”
