Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

"Uncle, I have a meeting with a friend today and I have to go back in the afternoon, so I won't eat here for lunch."

After hearing what Zhao Qin said, Liu Naixun felt a little regretful. He still quite liked this guy. After all, they had met several times and he always had a good impression of him.

"If something really happens, I won't keep you here. Wait for Lao Yang to bring the prepared bird's nest over. I'll ask your brother to deliver it to you, and you won't have to run."

"Thank you uncle."

Liu Naixun thought of something else, "Aqin, my sister told me that the old immortal in Longhu Mountain can cure my family's genetic disease, right?"

Without waiting for Zhao Qin to reply, he pointed to his heart and said, "I feel uncomfortable sometimes, but I went to the hospital for a checkup and they said there's nothing wrong with me."

"Uncle, if you feel very uncomfortable, why don't you take some time to come over recently? I will call my master and tell him.

If it's not a big deal, I can go with Axue's parents at the beginning of next year."

"Well, I'll wait until the beginning of the year then."

After chatting for a while, seeing that the time was almost up, Zhao Qin said goodbye and went to the shipyard with Chen Xue without stopping.

We had lunch at the shipyard and got a relatively exact time point, which is May or June next year, if nothing unexpected happens, the big ship can be delivered.

After leaving the shipyard, he went straight to the address Liu Zhonglun sent him.

Liu Zhonglun, who had made an appointment two days in advance, took half a day off with his wife today. At around 2 o'clock, he was waiting at the gate of the community.

After a while, I saw a Cayenne driving over.

"Your car is quite eye-catching. The security guard in our community shouted 'Cayenne' from a distance." Seeing Zhao Qin getting out of the car, Liu Zhonglun stretched out his hand to shake it and then joked.

"Brother Liu, excuse me."

"Why are you being so formal? Let's go. Your sister-in-law is preparing dinner at home. I don't know what you like to eat."

Liu Zhonglun greeted Chen Xue who got off the car and called to the security guard, "Old Gu, the car is parked here, please help take care of it."

"Let's go, this is an old neighborhood, and it's even harder to park inside."

"I'm not being polite. Can't you see I'm empty-handed?" Zhao Qin really didn't bring a companion this time.

Today he came to ask Liu Zhonglun to do something for him. If he brought a companion with him, it would be considered an exchange of interests, which is not very good. Coming empty-handed would mean that he came here for friendship, not for interests.

Liu Zhonglun was even happier. "That's right, you didn't bring it. Your sister-in-law said the ginseng she sent earlier was too valuable, so she asked you to take it back when you left today."

"If you say that, I'll leave now."

"Okay, go home quickly."

They entered the house chatting and laughing. Liu Zhonglun's wife was also very happy to see Chen Xue and kept chatting with her.

"Sister-in-law, I'll help you."

"Okay, let's pick vegetables together and chat about our own things."

Liu Zhonglun also has a Kung Fu tea table at home. The two sat beside it and Liu Zhonglun began to make tea. "You don't come here for no reason. Let's talk business first."

Zhao Qin smiled and said, "Brother Liu, I bought a piece of land in Canada to prospect for gold."

Hearing this, Liu Zhonglun's eyes widened, "Brother, you are incredible. Your business has even expanded to Canada."

"It's just a small matter. Brother Liu, you are from the customs. I plan to transport the gold over there back to China. I just want to ask if it is difficult to do so."

Liu Zhonglun was startled. "Aqin, why don't you deal with it locally? It will be much more convenient to transfer the cash back to China."

"Brother Liu, I am very optimistic about the value of gold, so I want to stockpile some of it. But as you know, if we stockpile gold abroad, who knows what the future of the relationship between the two countries will be.

After all, I am not from there, so if there is any disturbance, it will be difficult to deal with.

So we thought about shipping the gold back to China for storage.”

Liu Zhonglun hesitated for a while, but still shook his head, "Aqin, I'm afraid you don't understand tariffs. If an individual imports gold, if it's a small amount of jewelry, the tariff is generally 5%.

But if the pure gold is more than 50 grams, the tariff is 20%.

Of course, there are also gold bars that are tax-free for trade purposes, but it may be troublesome for you to go through such procedures.”

Zhao Qin’s eyes widened. He thought that tariffs were necessary, but he didn’t expect the tariffs to be so exaggerated, 20%!

"So I think if you are optimistic about gold, you should sell it abroad and then buy it back in China. This way the loss will be much smaller."

Zhao Qin scratched his head. But if he did this, how would the things he had buried underground see the light?

With his mind racing, he nodded and said, "I agree with the 20% tariff. I'll consider it as a contribution to the country."

At this moment he really thought so. After all, he fished it out of the bottom of the sea, so paying 20% ​​tax was no big deal.

Liu Zhonglun was stunned, then gave a thumbs up, "You have a great vision, no wonder you have the guts to donate more than 100 million in one go. Let me make it clear first, I will not help you hide the weight."

"Brother Liu, I do things for peace of mind. Not only do I not want you to underreport the weight, I also hope you report more."

"That's not necessary..."

"Seriously, if I ship 100 kilograms of gold and 100 kilograms of copper, can I declare it as 200 kilograms of gold?"

"You are doing this for..."

"Brother Liu, this is what I asked you to do for me. Just tell me if you can do it."

Liu Zhonglun's eyes widened. He had thought of countless possibilities, but he hadn't figured out why it was such a favor. Although this operation violated the rules, it did not harm the interests of the country, so it was not impossible to help.

But he just doesn’t understand, why?

"I'm going to ask you why, but you won't tell me."

Zhao Qin smiled and said, "To be honest, I have a lot of restrictions in the United States for such a large batch of gold. If I rashly transport it back to China, it will definitely not work.

So, I thought about mixing gold with copper, but it would definitely not pass the customs in China, so I just backed you up, my main purpose is to transport gold."

Liu Zhonglun was suddenly a little touched. Aqin had gone to great lengths to transport some gold back to the country, even at the cost of his own interests.

"What about the checkpoint in the United States?"

"It's a capitalist country. As long as you're willing to spend money, there's nothing you can't do."

"Okay, I'll help you with this."

Zhao Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little guilty for having deceived Liu Zhonglun, but there was nothing he could do about it. To clean the underground gold in China, he had to resort to this method.

Of course, for this method, he also paid a corresponding amount of tax, which was not a small amount.

"Have you guys finished talking? Now we can eat."

"Don't leave tonight. Let's have a drink together."

After the matter was settled, Zhao Qin relaxed and said, "Okay, then I will risk my life to accompany you."

"You don't have to sacrifice your life, just your stomach."

The two laughed.

The dishes on the table were quite rich, half of which were cooked food. Liu Zhonglun's wife smiled and said, "I know you are a seafood king and you usually eat a lot of seafood. I didn't buy much seafood, but it's not that I'm stingy."

"Sister-in-law, I don't know how to respond to what you said. The more homely it is, the more I like it. It means you don't treat us as outsiders."

Zhao Qin said as he unceremoniously picked up a piece of duck meat, tasted it and gave a thumbs up, "This ginger duck is so well cooked, sister-in-law, your skills are better than the chef in my restaurant."

"I like to hear that. You can say more."

Liu Zhonglun laughed, "One dares to praise, the other dares to accept, they are really rude, hurry up and eat more while it's hot."

He took the bottle again and began to pour wine for Zhao Qin, "Sister-in-law, do you want some too?"

"We're drinking red wine, so you two don't have to worry about it."
