This large group of people can really startle soone, but fortunately, they didn’t show off any tattoos or anything. When they saw Ye Qiu coming in, Liu Dazhuang and Liu Dafei hurriedly greeted him.
"Brother Qiu."
"Keep a low profile."
After the two brothers sat down, they couldn’t figure out what Ye Qiu ant and thought he was worried about the local big shots.
Ye Qiu had already had breakfast at Yang Guang’s, so he just ca over to chat with them, planning to fly back to Jinling tomorrow.
When the three of them sat down to the side, Liu Dafei asked, "Brother Qiu, are you thinking of having us hang out here?"
These two brothers had heard about the situation here, but Ye Qiu never let them get involved with drugs.
They rembered those three rules very clearly.
"It’s not about hanging out, it’s about helping manage a company. I’m planning to import a large amount of raw jadeite from Myanmar and then transport it to Jinling by truck to gamble on the jade stones in Jade City."
The raw jadeite imported from Muse here costs just over ten yuan a kilogram, but once it reaches Jinling, it goes up to five or six hundred, or six or seven hundred a kilogram, with extrely high gross margins, practically a huge profit.
Moreover, the gambling stone market hasn’t yet developed in Jiangnan Province and the Yangtze River Delta, so Ye Qiu plans to get directly involved.
"Brother Qiu, are you talking about gambling on stones?"
"I’ve already gambled quite a bit. I’m not playing anymore; I’m focusing on making money through raw stones. I’ve already talked with a boss in Myanmar, and the purchase price is a little over ten yuan a kilogram for ordinary stones, and fifty or sixty for expensive ones. Once it reaches Ruili, it can be two or three hundred a kilogram, and in Jinling, it might multiply several tis. This beats your previous fights by a long shot."
Ye Qiu always felt that this underworld path was not sustainable, and it would lead to death sooner or later, so it’s better to develop in legitimate ways.
If he could monopolize the gambling stone market in the Yangtze River Delta, he would be financially secure for life.
When Liu Dazhuang and Liu Dafei did the math, they saw that the profits could be several dozen tis!
"Brother Qiu, this is great! There’s work to do."
"Here, I’m establishing a sole proprietorship. I’m investing five hundred million, but you guys will also have personal shares. Each of you two brothers will have five percent. When we get to Jinling, I’ll establish a joint venture with the Jiangbei Gang, with each holding fifty percent shares, forming the Jiangbei Group, specifically to handle the affairs of Jade City, which will be managed by Cai Yong."
The company established here will mainly handle the import of raw jadeite and transportation issues. Just the cost of those imported trucks is several hundred thousand each, and Ye Qiu needs to spend at least a hundred million to purchase them.
So one brother will manage the jadeite imports, and the other will handle transport logistics.
"You two brothers need to discuss who will manage the jadeite imports and who will manage these trucks."
When the two brothers were still processing, they suddenly felt a bit overwheld. Considering that five percent stake, together they’d have ten percent, and Ye Qiu’s initial investnt of five hundred million ans they’d earn fifty million for nothing.
That’s not a small amount, and if the jadeite keeps generating profits, their inco from dividends will be continuous, much better than fighting in Jinling.
"Brother Qiu, we’re a bit overwheld, and we haven’t had much education. Can we really manage?"
"How many brothers do you usually manage?"
These two were heads of small gangs in Jiangbei, tad by Ye Qiu and Cai Yong, so they agreed to follow Cai Yong.
But now, being asked to manage such a large company suddenly felt overwhelming.
They hadn’t even finished middle school before joining the gang, fearing they might not be up to the task.
"Right now, we manage over a thousand brothers."
Over a thousand?
That’s quite a lot.
However, managing a company is definitely different from managing gang mbers.
"Aren’t you guys idiots? If you don’t understand finance and such, can’t you hire college graduates? You just need to be responsible for major issues and ensure there are no problems, leaving other matters to the relevant staff. Of course, you’ve brought fifty reliable brothers with you, they can handle the smaller tasks."
The two brothers, enlightened by Ye Qiu, realized the truth.
They seed even more excited.
After a simple chat with them, Ye Qiu had them arrange for those fifty brothers to stay in a hotel, then took the two brothers and Zhang Xiaofei to Yang Guang’s luxurious residence.
"Yang is the richest man in Ruili and the local big shot. If you encounter any issues you can’t solve, you can go to him. Let introduce you to him now."
The richest man?
A local big shot?
That’s certainly ideal.
After all, being new to this place, not knowing anyone, you could get killed without knowing why, especially in business. If you don’t have a local big shot to rely on, it’s tough to survive.
Liu Dafei and his brother were well aware of this.
Arriving at the entrance of the luxurious villa, escorted by bodyguards, they stepped out and went inside. The Liu brothers seed a bit nervous, after all, the person was a billionaire. They had never t the richest man in their lives.
Upon entering, Ye Qiu saw Madam Yang, the Dai woman.
"Madam Yang, these two are my brothers and will assist with our business here. I’ll introduce them to Mr. Yang in a mont."
"Great!" said Madam Yang, the Dai woman.
While Ye Qiu was settling in the living room, the three of them didn’t expect Ye Qiu to be so familiar with the richest man in the area, leaving them unsure how to describe Ye Qiu.
The housekeeper served the Liu brothers while Ye Qiu awaited Wu Mao’s arrival.
About an hour later, Wu Mao arrived first.
Bringing him in, Ye Qiu said, "Mr. Wu, my people responsible for these dealings have arrived. They’ll be handling all jadeite stone exchanges with you from now on."
When Wu Mao noticed the Liu brothers at first glance, he imdiately knew these two were not to be trifled with, given their bloody records.
After exchanging handshakes and making introductions, Ye Qiu said, "Mr. Wu, from now on, these two brothers will be your point of contact for our affairs."
"Very welco," Wu Mao said.
During lunch, when Yang Guang returned and learned that Ye Qiu’s people had arrived and t with him, he gave Ye Qiu due respect, assuring the Liu brothers that they could seek his help for any unresolved issues.
Now, the two needed to register companies first, one for import-export trade, the other for freight transportation. The legal representatives and chairn would be these two brothers’ nas, with registered capital of one hundred million each.
This move further astounded Yang, who saw Ye Qiu’s boldness but knew his own businesses were primarily in Ruili and Myanmar, so he didn’t ntion wanting a share of this venture with Ye Qiu.
