Chapter 315: $1 Billion Celestial Dynasty Antiques Sale
"Well, I'll tell the news to those who need it, but, William, you can't always use me as a messenger, you should contact some of the great nobles who have a good opinion of you, and it will be good for you."
"Hehe, I'll give you a hehe," William said mockingly, "no good, a lot of mess, Garris, you really think I don't know that the old fox of the Grand Duke Devon and the nobles around him are staring at me".
"In order to give his descendants the money to inherit his title and wealth, the old fox of the Grand Duke of Devon, as the major shareholder of Debys, not only sat back and watched me shorting Debys, but also secretly lent money to his son to short Debys."
"This kind of old fox who can sell even his own people for the sake of the family is not a good partner to work with."
Garris said helplessly, "Hehe, I don't believe you don't know what the Duke of Devon does, everything is for the family, for that surname."
The reason, of course, William knows, isn't it just that he can't do it himself, and he's doing it back?
Debys's stock price has plummeted, if the Archduke Devon was still in good health a few years ago, then he would definitely be furious, but now he wishes that Debys's stock price would fall by 9%, so that he can undervalue the shares he owns in Debythrie and pass it on to his descendants.
Anyway, Debys's stock price will definitely return to its actual value in the end,
Now that Debys' stock price has plummeted by nearly four tiers, his descendants will have to pay four tiers less in inheritance tax, which is hundreds of millions of dollars.
So the Archduke Devon not only did not blame William for his idea of beating Debys, but tacitly watched William do something.
"And you're not qualified to say this, you really think you're a good person, aren't we all pawns in your eyes", Garris sneered, "If you didn't want to use us as a shield this time, you would tell me that you were shorting Debias?"
William laughed, "Even if it's to take advantage of each other, at least I'll let you drink soup, a delicious soup, and it's a wonderful thing to make money, Garris."
Garris was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "Well, for the sake of money, I'm sure that others won't get in the way of you and deliberately go against you."
But we have a very simple request, you eat meat and hope that you can think about whether people from the same camp can take a sip of soup."
"As long as you don't want to swallow my meat and bones, then it's definitely okay to drink soup.
However, as a chef, I need 30% of the processing fee to make good things, otherwise the business and friendship will not last long."
Garris was silent for a moment and said, "Wait for my call, but I think it should be fine, now everyone is so eager to want you to join us, it is also an affirmation of your ability to make money, we need you."
People who can help others make money will be very popular anywhere, but no one will help others make money for nothing, unless there are other benefits, it is not better to earn it yourself.
William squinted his eyes and waited for Garris to call back, knowing very well that he really couldn't stay away from the people in the same camp forever, but it was definitely impossible to let him pay for nothing.
If the old foxes of the German Grand Duke could be willing to make three layers of profits, William would not be able to cooperate with them.
Anyway, it's not about sending money, and blocking these people's mouths with some financial routes and news that they can't take care of, not only can they help themselves make money,
You can also be at peace for a while, and at the same time borrow their power to help you do things, which is also mutually beneficial.
As for the future, William didn't expect to be an outsider all the time, but he also understood that he was too young, and even if he wanted to participate in the affairs of the nobles, he could only be a small character.
William is not interested in doing this kind of thing for people to be juniors and juniors.
These united aristocrats are actually a group of people who want to keep the glory, status and privileges of the family.
You don't care, then this group of people is actually no different from capitalists and landlords.
But if you care about the aristocracy, then this group of people will make you understand how difficult it is for the aristocratic group to enter, how xenophobic it is.
He is polite on the outside, but he is arrogant on the inside, pretending to be the glory of his ancestors, and asking for this and that with the merits of his ancestors.
But some people just eat their set.
Half an hour later, William stopped the boat, took out his fishing tools, and stood in front of the third deck to catch a fish.
Maybe because of carelessness, I didn't catch half a fish for an hour.
But William wasn't angry, anyway, he was passing the time,
After another half an hour, Garris's call finally came back,
"Roughly we agree with your terms, but that 30% profit we want to replace it with something else,
You know that the Grand Duke of Devon and some of the other great nobles are very old, and they want the people you work with to be replaced by their descendants, leaving cash to inherit their wealth and titles."
"No problem, what I want is a return, as for whether it's money or not, I don't care, let's say what good things you have prepared for me, let's say okay first, unless it's a castle in the city of London, don't tell me about those tattered castles and manors in other places, I'm not a rag king."
"Okay", Gagged by William, Garris immediately removed several castles used for chips, and mocked in his mouth, "Idiots will give you castles near London".
After waiting for a few seconds, but before William could refute, Garris said boringly, "I have some land, wineries and works of art here, and the land is 、、、"
"Don't talk about it unless it's in Oxford," interrupted William, who knew that it wasn't a good place.
He wasn't interested in bothering with the lucrative corners of the land that didn't make much money.
"Except for the five major red wine wineries, don't tell me about the others, the wineries in England are not as good as those in Scotland, what am I going to do with these unknown goods?
"If you only need art, then we can't talk about it on the phone, you better find some experts to come to London and see it yourself," Garris said helplessly.
"No problem, by the way, which country are these artworks from".
"This, this," Garris said in a hurry, "Celestial Empire."
"All of them?" asked William, surprised.
"Well, probably, if you don't like it, it's not that you can't negotiate, how about giving you some antiques from the Celestial Empire and Eastern Europe," Garris asked cautiously.
"Ha, are you guys idiots to me? What is the price of antiques from the Celestial Empire during the stock market crash? What am I going to do with the antiques of those small countries in Eastern Europe?"
William was angry, but he was happy in his heart, "Unless you sell me all the 7 layers of the Celestial Empire antiques at the market price, you should gamble, otherwise you can keep it for yourself."
"It's not impossible, but I think you may not be able to eat all the Celestial Empire antiques, and the three-tier profit that should be given to you this time is 92 million US dollars, but this 92 million US dollars may not even be one-tenth of the value of the Celestial Empire antiques."
