Tycoon: I can see the goddess's wish list novel Chapter 1206

Chapter 1206: Chapter 1203: Too Full, Completely Stuffed...

Luofeng spoke up. "It’s still about Australia. We’ve already started our plan against them and cut off wine imports!"

"So what’s your next step?" Huang Qiyang asked.

"Spain and Tsarist Russia are discussing the possibility of cooperating on iron ore. If the cooperation works out, Spain will put up the money and develop iron ore together with Tsarist Russia, then sell it to us!" Luofeng said.

Huang Qiyang instantly understood what Luofeng meant. "You want to use this move to suppress Australia’s iron ore price?"

"Exactly. If Tsarist Russia’s iron ore output goes up, we can completely get rid of our dependence on Australian ore!" Luofeng said.

Huang Qiyang said, "Actually, just releasing the news of a cooperation is enough to put pressure on Australia. After all, we gain another option and they gain another competitor. But are you confident you can push this cooperation through?"

Luofeng said, "I’m confident, but I don’t know if Daxia’s domestic steel enterprises are going to buy in."

"What do you mean?" Huang Qiyang asked.

"You know what I mean." Luofeng said calmly.

Daxia had always been on the back foot in international iron ore trading.

Not only because its own iron ore was lower grade.

But also because its steel enterprises were scattered like loose sand.

Internal chaos in the ranks, which gave foreign iron ore companies an easy win.

Huang Qiyang understood this logic, but what exactly was Luofeng getting at?

"What is it you’re actually going to do?" Huang Qiyang asked.

"I feel like you’re off today. Do you have some misunderstanding about me?" Luofeng said.

"I’m just curious." Huang Qiyang said.

"I need a fair shot at competition. If—just if—once Tsarist Russia and Spain start their cooperation, our steel enterprises are still a pile of loose sand, then in that situation we’re still going to be at Australia’s mercy. So I hope I can get a chance to enter the steel market."

Huang Qiyang said, "If you want to enter, just enter. Nobody’s going to block you."

Luofeng laughed. "Starting from zero is just too slow. I want Capital City Steel Company."

Capital City Steel was among the top five integrated steel enterprises in Daxia, with a hundred-year history; both its technology and its output were very strong.

Huang Qiyang snorted lightly. "So that’s your real goal, huh?"

"No, no, no. My goal is only to help push down Australia’s iron ore price. But it can’t be that I’m fighting like crazy to help you, while you drag me down yourselves, right?" Luofeng said. "To be frank, if I were to cooperate with Australia, Australia would probably welcome me more, wouldn’t it?"

Huang Qiyang had no way to refute that.

Given Luofeng’s situation, if he cooperated with Australia—

Australia would definitely give him the best terms.

To the point of "whatever you want, you get."

After all, Luofeng not only commanded enormous wealth, he also had advanced technology.

Luofeng had a lot of cards up his sleeve; Huang Qiyang knew that.

"What’s your real purpose in entering the steel industry? You said we should have more sincerity and less games between us, right?" Huang Qiyang said.

"I really don’t have any schemes. I just want Daxia to lose less, that’s all." Luofeng said.

Huang Qiyang went quiet, then said, "I can negotiate on your conditions, but how are you planning to handle the具体细节?"

"We’ll talk about how to handle things when the time comes. Both of us want Daxia’s steel industry to be able to stand together against Australia, instead of being picked off one by one as loose sand." Luofeng sighed.

Huang Qiyang was silent for a few seconds. "You’re not worried something unexpected might happen then?"
