Chapter 362 Purchasing Land

362 Purchase of land

Juliet looked very friendly, and performed the common cheek-kissing greeting between Ye Qingshan and Alice.

Both parties sat down at the table.

The dining table was set with exquisite tableware, and dinner was Western food, steak and salad.

To be honest, Ye Qingshan is not really used to Western food.

Unfortunately, when in Rome, do as the Romans do.

“Ye, I’d like to invite you and Alice to my house for dinner today.

I just want to meet you in person and see what charm you have.

It will win the heart of our Alice."

Juliet said, jokingly at Alice's expense.

Ye Qingshan smiled, but couldn't respond to this.

“But after seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed a very handsome man.

Alice has good taste.”

Although Juliet said so, Ye Qingshan didn't believe it.

Many of these white people look down on the yellow race.

Ye Qingshan has to be wary of such white people.

However, at present, the Pitt family is not this type, so they can cooperate.

"I heard that you borrowed more than 200 million from Citibank?"

During the meal, Anthony, who had been silent, finally spoke.

Such shocking news right at the beginning.

"Oh my god, is this true?"

Juliet was also surprised, and from her expression, she seemed to really not know.

Look at your husband.

“Of course, I have friends at Citibank, he said.

Peter, this friend, is still very capable."

Anthony replied with a smile.

Ye Qingshan was speechless about Citibank at this time.

Their confidentiality work is so bad?

As if he had seen through Ye Qingshan's thoughts, Anthony continued, "The confidentiality work at Citibank is still acceptable.

There are only a handful of people who are qualified to know about this deal.

Coincidentally, I had some status in California, so I was able to get some information.

As for more details.

For example, how did you get Citibank to agree to lend you more than 200 million yuan?

I don’t know about this either.

If you want, you can tell us now in secret."

"Mr. Anthony, I'm sorry.

This is a trade secret.

I can’t tell you! ”

Ye Qingshan shrugged and refused to give details.

At the same time, he also gained a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Anthony family.

"Haha, it doesn't matter."

Anthony was not angry when he saw Ye Qingshan refuse.

Juliet next to him said indignantly: “Last year, I wanted to borrow 20 million from Citibank.

These old guys made me mortgage this and that.

Finally, 15 million was approved.

Ye, you actually managed to get them to lend you more than 200 million, amazing!"

Juliet gave Ye Qingshan a thumbs up and re-evaluated Ye Qingshan in her heart.

Before this dinner.

Juliet invited Ye Qingshan over mainly because of her younger brothers Pete and Alice.

These two people have praised Ye Qingshan in telegrams more than once.

At the same time, the oil extraction equipment drawings that Ye Qingshan gave to Juliet last time made Juliet feel somewhat favorable towards Ye Qingshan.

That’s how this dinner came about.

But Juliet obviously did not conduct an in-depth investigation of Ye Qingshan like her husband Anthony did.

“Mr. Ye, this is a large loan.

Do you want to invest here?"

Anthony ate a piece of steak, stared at Ye Qingshan, and asked again.

Compared to Juliet, Anthony gave Ye Qingshan the impression of being a scheming guy.

The other party had obviously investigated himself in advance.

However, this is normal.

It is unlikely that all the people in the big American financial families are playboys like Pitt.

"certainly.

I am optimistic about the development of your area, so I plan to invest in real estate here.

Today, I went out with Mr. Joseph to visit several cement plants and steel mills.

They have all been bought.”

Ye Qingshan did not hide his whereabouts today, he believed that he would not tell it.

Anthony must have known it too.

“Mr. Ye is a man with vision.

However, the current rate of return on investment in real industries is too low and too slow.”

Anthony gives his own insights.

Indeed, the United States is currently experiencing an economic crisis.

The economy is far from recovering and the real economy is in recession.

Otherwise, so many factories wouldn’t have gone bankrupt and been sold.

“I invested in the cement and steel plants mainly because of my own needs.

Our country is at war with Japan.

There is a huge demand for cement and steel.

So, I’m not doing this just to make money.”

"Mr. Ye is a patriotic man."

Anthony nodded, agreeing with Ye Qingshan's statement.

At this time, Ye Qingshan also looked at Juliet and said with a smile: "In the future, I will produce cement and steel.

To ship it to our country, we still need to cooperate with Miss Juliet."

“Pete told me this before.

completely fine.

I can dispatch a fleet to transport these supplies for Mr. Ye.

As for the specific contract, I will ask someone to draft it when I return to the company.

Mr. Ye, please come to our company when you have time and we can sign the contract.”

Juliet was also a straightforward person and she agreed to Ye Qingshan's cooperation right away.

"no problem."

“Mr. Ye, if you have any business needs, you can come to us more often in the future.

Mr. Joseph, although he also has business connections.

But he is currently, after all, familiar with government officials.

Some things are inconvenient to come forward.”

After dinner, Anthony said this to Ye Qingshan.

Ye Qingshan nodded slightly after hearing this.

Indeed, what Anthony said makes some sense.

Ye Qingshan decided that in the future, he would entrust Joseph with any matters involving the American government.

Other purely business cooperation, but try to trouble him as little as possible.

Ye Qingshan and Alice spent more than an hour eating this meal at Juliet's manor.

After the meal, everyone chatted for a long time.

While listening to Ye Qingshan talk about some things on the battlefield, Pete was still bragging about his heroic deeds in protecting the people in Jinling.

It was not until late at night that Ye Qingshan and Alice left!

"Peter, spend more time with Mr. Ye in the future."

After watching Ye Qingshan leave in the car, Anthony instructed Pete.

“Of course, brother-in-law.

Ye and I are friends who share weal and woe."

Ye Qingshan sent Alice home and it was already late at night when he returned to Sunshine Manor.

I lay down and fell asleep.

Ye Qingshan was exhausted after going to many places today.

The next morning, Ye Qingshan did not go out.

In the manor, he listened to the report from Xiao Wusheng on the situation on the Xuzhou battlefield in China.

At around eleven o'clock, Ye Qingfeng rushed over.

"Boss, this is the detailed information you asked me to collect about the twenty-three regions in California."

Ye Qingfeng placed several file bags on the table.

"Brother Afeng, sit down.

There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so reserved. "

Ye Qingshan said.

Then he picked up the file bag on the table, took out the documents inside and started reading.

These materials contain detailed information on more than 20 pieces of land.

Ye Qingshan had asked Ye Qingfeng to investigate all of this in advance.

But in fact, this is what really concerns Ye Qingshan.

There are only five plots of land.

The rest is just Ye Qingshan's trick.

The five pieces of land here are naturally where oil or gold mines are buried underground.

Before purchasing these places, Ye Qingshan needs to understand their current situation clearly.

“Four of the five areas are privately owned at this time.

There is another piece that belongs to the California government.”

After reading the information, Ye Qingshan understood the current ownership of these five areas.

Then, Ye Qingshan put down the document belonging to the California government, and this area was abandoned by Ye Qingshan.

For the time being, he is unwilling to have too much contact with the American government.

As for the remaining four areas, which are currently in private hands, Ye Qingshan is determined to get them.

“In these four areas, there are two gold mines, a large oil field, and a large copper mine.

You have to buy them all.”

Ye Qingshan was thinking in his mind.

This is Ye Qingshan’s first step to buy at the bottom in the United States.

Let’s start with California.

However, Ye Qingshan had no plan to purchase these four pieces of land directly.

Otherwise, gold mines and oil fields may be discovered on these four pieces of land in the future.

Ye Qingshan couldn't explain it clearly.

So, according to Ye Qingshan's words.

In the next period of time, he will let Ye Qingfeng buy a lot of land in California.

Just try to buy all the information worth twenty or so dollars that you have.

Among them are four pieces of land with gold mines and oil.

In this way, gold mines and oil fields may be discovered in the following four pieces of land.

That makes sense.

Moreover, at this time, the United States was in the post-economic crisis, and the prices of these private lands also fell to a very low range.

"Brother Afeng, I want to buy all these twenty pieces of land.

You send people to contact the holders of these lands.

Negotiate a price with them.”

Ye Qingshan pretended to take out the three eliminated pieces of land from the documents.

The information of the remaining twenty pieces of land was returned to Ye Qingfeng.

"Ah, buy all... buy all?"

Ye Qingfeng was also stunned.

“Yes, buy them all.”

“But, Ah Shan.

A lot of the land here is wasteland and canyons, it's completely barren.

What's the point of buying it? "

Ye Qingfeng persuaded.

He didn't understand why Ye Qingshan bought these barren lands.

Ye Qingshan didn't want to explain because there was no way to explain.

He just stared at Ye Qingfeng coldly: “Brother Afeng, work beside me.

Don't ask about some things and don't interfere with them.

Do whatever you are told to do.

If you can't do this, I'll send someone else from my family over.

You should go back to Hong Kong and continue to help Uncle Lin."

Ye Qingfeng calmed down instantly and apologized quickly: "Yes, boss.

I've said too much.

I know what to do. "

“That’s right, boss.

Mr. Lin is currently in Chinatown, California, and he knows you're coming.

I'd like to arrange a meeting with you.

Tonight, he has booked a private room in a hotel in Chinatown and would like you to meet him there.

Are you going to see it?"

"Can!

I just happen to want to meet this wealthy businessman from Southeast Asia."

Ye Qingshan agreed.

When Ye Qingfeng walked out of the manor, his mind had not yet recovered.

Ye Qingshan asked him to investigate these lands, but he never thought that Ye Qingshan wanted to buy them all.

However, Ye Qingshan's later words also reminded Ye Qingfeng.

Ye Qingshan at this moment is not just his cousin.

Moreover, he is his boss, so as his subordinates, we must have the awareness of being subordinates.
