Chapter 176: Profiting From War
When purchasing ore before, Amber made a big bet.
At that time, after buying the ship, Atlas Company only had 13 million Imperial Gold Dragon in cash on its account.
After leaving the minimum guarantee of logistics and company operating funds, Amber bought various ores worth 9 million Imperial Golden Dragons.
Take a gamble, take a chance, and your bicycle will turn into a motorcycle.
Now, the listed price in major ore trading institutions is 45% higher than Amber's purchase price at that time.
This means that the value of these 9 million has increased to 13.05 million without considering any factors.
This is just the listing price, the actual transaction price is even higher.
Because the current ore market is completely in short supply.
In addition to the major heavy industries that really need to purchase ore, there are also a large number of speculators who are also purchasing ore.
Their existence and behavior have added fuel to the already hot ore prices.
Model was one of these speculators.
He has been wandering around the major ore trading markets on the border of the Star Dragon Empire all year round. He has also accumulated a considerable net worth by relying on his ability to speculate in the ore business over the years.
When the war between the Federation and the Empire broke out, as a citizen of the Star Dragon Empire, he immediately joined the others around him in shouting in support of this 'sacred and glorious war'.
But others were excited because they felt that this war would restore the empire's past glory.
Model is completely excited about the upcoming surge in mining prices.
However, he still underestimated the craziness of this ore trading trend.
After purchasing ore for a long period of time and making a few small profits by flipping it to make a profit on the price difference.
Model found that it was difficult to find orders for large-scale ore transactions in the market.
Compared with those speculative companies with large enterprise scale, their ability to grab orders is still too weak.
Some orders with the right price are basically taken down as soon as they are placed in the trading market.
In this case, Model could only try his luck in the unofficial ore trading market.
And his good luck favored him again.
He discovered an order that was about 7 points higher than the official market price. This increase was already relatively low among the prices in the unofficial trading market.
Model did not hesitate to place the order in the market trading program and prepare to win.
However, it was discovered that the person who hung up the transaction order actually adopted the bidding mode.
"This greedy guy!"
Model, who was dining in the hotel restaurant where he was staying, hammered the table hard.
After realizing that his actions had frightened the surrounding guests, he quickly apologized to others in embarrassment, and then continued to look at his terminal.
In the bidding system, someone other than him has already started bidding.
Model also happens to know the user ID that currently has the highest bid.
That was his nemesis in the field of speculation, Craven.
"Hmph, you even got the ID of 'Craven General Trading Company'. It's really pretentious."
Model curled his lips. He had always been disdainful of Craven, a pretentious guy.
Moreover, the other party has always been superior to him in terms of financial strength.
In many cases, the duck that was about to be cooked was taken away from him simply based on the price.
"Tsk, I can't let this deal be taken away from me again. It seems that we still need to find a way to interview the person who hangs up the transaction."
Model clicked on the details page of the transaction order, trying to find out if the person who placed the order had left any contact information.
"Wuhu~ There really is one, Southern Cross Satellite City No. 8, Crystal Palace Hotel. Huh?!"
Model was stunned for a moment when he saw this address. Isn't this the satellite city where he is now?
"Haha! The emperor has paid off!"
Model excitedly sent a private message to the person who placed the order through the platform, saying that he was also in the Southern Cross Satellite City 8 and hoped to have an interview.
It happened that the person who placed the order was also online. Not long after Model's message was sent, the other party responded and expressed his willingness to interview.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Rebel, I'll be there shortly!"
After replying to this message, Model waved his fist excitedly, as if he had already taken the transaction order.
After meeting the hawker named Ray Bill in the executive suite of the Crystal Palace Hotel.
Model first marveled at the other party's unexpected youth, and then felt inexplicable pressure during the subsequent negotiations.
This young-looking Mr. Ray Bill showed a sophistication that was completely inappropriate for his age.
Moreover, his eyes seemed to be able to see through Model's thoughts, and he frequently made Model passive during negotiations.
"Mr. Model, you also know the current situation. The price of ore is rising every day, one price per day."
"Mr. Rebel, I know what you mean, and I also know that bidding will make you more profitable."
Model rubbed his hands and then said:
“But you have to know that as the price rises, the person who finally takes it may not be able to eat this batch of goods. This kind of thing has happened too many times in the market.
I can guarantee you that if the bidding continues to rise, the possibility of transaction failure will increase significantly!
You will not suffer any loss and will receive compensation, but you will still lose unnecessary time anyway. "
"However, time is money."
"Yes, yes, yes! Time is money! Mr. Rebir, you are absolutely right!"
Model slapped his thigh excitedly, and then decided to strike while the iron is hot.
"I came to you with sincerity. If you are willing to cancel the bid, I am willing to compensate this part of the compensation, and then take all your goods at the current price that is 7 points higher than the official market price!"
"7 points?"
The young man named Rebir frowned, as if he had doubts about the price.
"7 points is already very high, Mr. Rebir, and trading directly with me can save the platform transaction fee."
"But another gentleman came to me and was willing to complete the transaction at a price of 7.5 points. What's his name? It seems to be Craven? "
Hearing this name from Rebill's mouth, Mordlton felt bad.
This damn guy was like a fly that could not be driven away, and he was going to ruin his good deeds again.
"Mr. Rebill, if you are sure that this person is called Craven, then I happen to know him."
Model came closer and whispered:
"If you don't believe it, you can ask around. This person has a bad reputation in the market. He often digs holes in transactions, making his trading partners complain. "
"Is this true?"
Rebill showed a surprised expression on his face.
"But this Mr. Craven has come to me many times, and I think he is quite sincere."
Has he come to me many times?!
Model's eyelids jumped when he got this key information, but he quickly reacted.
Craven has come to me many times, but he hasn't won this order yet, which means that he hasn't reached an agreement yet, and he still has a chance.
Thinking of this, Mordell decided to take a ruthless dose of medicine.
"7.6, Mr. Rebill. "
Model looked at Rebil earnestly. Years of targeted training made it easy for Model to show sincerity.
"If you agree, we can sign the contract today, and I will immediately pay you the deposit!"
