"I still don't understand what you mean?" This Brazilian guy has been talking for quite a while.

But Chen Yiyang still hasn't figured out what this Brazilian guy wants him to help with.

"I heard from Little Marco that your Yiboli Automobile Factory can start producing cars by next year at the latest."

This Brazilian guy might have noticed Chen Yiyang's impatience, so he quickly sped up his speech.

"Yes."

"Can I book a batch of cars?" the Brazilian guy said, "I can pay for the goods in advance."

Chen Yiyang is not a fool.

Upon hearing the Brazilian guy's words, combined with his previous complaints about Argentine customers owing him money.

Chen Yiyang immediately understood. "You plan to use Argentine beef to offset the debt?"

"Yes." The Brazilian guy nodded. "I can arrange for Argentine beef to be directly shipped to your port at a price lower than the normal export price of Argentine beef.

I don't need cash for this batch of beef, just cars as payment a little over a year later."

After the Brazilian guy finished speaking, Chen Yiyang fell into contemplation.

This sounds quite unreliable at first listen.

But upon deeper thought, it seems feasible.

In this business deal, what does Chen Yiyang have to offer? It's a batch of cars from the Yiboli Automobile Factory a year later.

Although the Yiboli Automobile Factory can produce cars for sale a year later.

But Chen Yiyang isn't sure how many units could actually be sold.

Now, having a customer pre-order a batch of cars is definitely a significant benefit, a confidence boost for the factory.

Let alone the fact that this customer is willing to pay for the goods in advance.

Even though the payment is with Argentine beef.

But beef in the domestic market is considered hard currency.

As long as the price is right, there's absolutely no problem selling it.

Domestic beef consumption is entirely constrained by its price.

If beef is cheaper, it can certainly be sold as much as available.

This business deal can actually be done.

Chen Yiyang immediately exchanged contact information with the Brazilian guy, then returned to the hotel and contacted his team to evaluate the deal.

Soon, the team came back with results.

Although the business spans a wide range, it's actually easy to execute.

As long as the genuine beef arrives at the port, domestic merchants can quickly be contacted to resell the beef.

Everything that can be sold will be sold.

Chen Yiyang can earn a difference in the process.

However, Chen Yiyang carefully inquired about whether importing beef from Argentina involves any cross-country legal issues.

"Absolutely not." The assistant replied, "Domestic import approval for Argentine beef is already in place, as long as quarantine is passed, importing Argentine beef is entirely unimpeded.

Mainly because Argentina owes us too much money, they can only use resources to repay debts. We welcome Argentina to sell anything valuable to Huaxia."

"What about Argentina?"

"Argentina recently lifted beef export quotas, meaning their country's beef can be exported to other countries, posing no legal issues."

"That's fine then." Hearing this, Chen Yiyang felt somewhat relieved.

Yet the assistant spoke again, "I also noticed one thing. There are quite a few domestic businesses and individuals doing business in Argentina.

After making money over there, these people find it difficult to convert RMB back because Argentina has limited foreign exchange reserves, neither RMB nor US Dollar.

Can we do similar business in Argentina, selling to Huaxia merchants there and exchange for beef to ship back home?"

"Is it profitable?"

"Absolutely." The assistant eagerly said, "Boss, you can't imagine just how cheap Argentine beef is now; not only cheaper than domestic beef, but even a bit cheaper than the cheapest Brazilian beef."

"Why is it so cheap?" Chen Yiyang wasn't quite clear.

Argentina is a major beef-exporting country, so why would beef prices suddenly drop when production hasn't increased?

"This stems from two reasons." The assistant responded,

"On one hand, Argentina previously had beef export quotas. Beef holds a status in Argentina comparable to our pork, as the main meat source for ordinary people.

But amid Argentina's current series of reforms, many Argentinians have lost jobs, losing the ability to continue consuming beef.

Plus, Argentina abandoned the beef export quota, allowing their domestic beef to be exported freely. Hence, Argentine beef export volume has surged.

On the other hand, Argentina has recently soured relations with many countries, among its original 20 trade partners, 13 have strained or severed relations with Argentina.

These countries would have been importing Argentine beef, but the deteriorated relations mean Argentine beef can no longer be exported to these countries.

These combined factors have led to the collapse of Argentine beef prices!"

"What a talent." Chen Yiyang didn't expect Argentina to be troubled to such an extent.

But it's not his concern.

Only because Argentina is in such a condition could he import cheap beef to sell domestically.

With cash short at hand, if this business is successful, the profits would be considerable.

So Chen Yiyang met this Brazilian guy a few more times to finalize some details.

Then, Chen Yiyang's team set up an import and export company in Argentina, importing Argentine beef with the help from this guy.

After finishing everything in the Imperial Capital, Chen Yiyang and Yang Chengru returned to Lin'an.

Shortly after arriving in Lin'an, he received an email on his computer.

It was from a Japanese girl he knew previously, Ye Yue.

Chen Yiyang had previously invested in the game developed by Ye Yue's company.

Now the game is about to launch, and Ye Yue sent an email asking if Chen Yiyang could be invited to Japan to attend the release ceremony.

Go to Japan.

Chen Yiyang felt tempted.

He's never been to Japan.

Moreover, Japan has various antiques; perhaps he could stumble across some treasures while there.

However, before heading to Russia, Chen Yiyang initially planned to visit Thailand.

Mainly because Long Cheng was acquiring a car factory in Thailand, and Chen Yiyang planned to interfere.

Yet considering Thailand's inadequate public security.

Chen Yiyang decided to send several assistants ahead to arrange a security team, handle preliminary preparations, and then he'd go later.

In the time before heading to Thailand, if there's nothing significant to do domestically, he might really consider visiting Japan.
