Chapter 613: Digging a Pit for People?
In the eyes of some outsiders, Zhuang Haiyang, who led the fleet away, seemed somewhat arrogant. Not to mention the slaughtering of the top beef cattle that have been painstakingly cultivated and giving them away for free, they also destroy all the vineyards that have just been cultivated.
This kind of rashness will undoubtedly greatly reduce the price of the ranch. As some businessmen say, don't worry about money when you go against anything. Even if the ranch is going to be sold, it will be profitable to sell it for more money!
In the face of such doubts, Zhuang Haiyang said very directly: "Am I a businessman? I'm just a fisherman!"
Such a crisp and neat answer made these comrades-in-arms around him really realize that Zhuang Haiyang is really not the kind of businessman who puts interests first. If you are a businessman, will you give them those high benefits and salaries?
Perhaps, as some people who know Zhuang Haiyang said, this guy is purely rich and capricious!
Whoever wants to make him unhappy, he wants more people to be unhappy. After slaughtering the beef cattle raised in the pasture, no one dares to guarantee whether that batch of beef cattle can still have the previous quality. Even if you take in this group of employees from the ranch, what about it?
At least one thing is certain, both Janook and Louie will quit their jobs after trading on the ranch. In the past few years as the management of the ranch, they have also earned a lot of salary, and it is natural that it will not hurt to take a two-year break.
Most importantly, they know one thing very well, the new rancher will not feel comfortable leaving the ranch to them. Even if the new rancher is dismissed in the future, it is better to leave as soon as possible and enjoy a vacation first.
There is another thing that cannot be said explicitly, perhaps that both of them know one thing, the ranch can have the current scene, but I am afraid that it is more due to the rancher. Now that Zhuang Haiyang has left, it is difficult for this ranch to continue its glory.
As for the so-called expert delegation, in the eyes of Januck and Louis, it is not useful at all. If he didn't have that kind of confidence, how could Zhuang Haiyang be so simple and destroy this ranch that was so hard to operate?
When the fleet officially left the territorial waters of New Zealand, Hong Wei also said directly: "Ocean, this matter ends here?"
"Don't be in a hurry! Some things also need time to ferment slowly. I'd love to see how they feel when they learn that they have bought a ranch that's worse than a normal ranch for a lot of money."
As soon as these words came out, Hong Wei also smiled and said, "It seems that the things you ordered before leaving were digging holes for those people?"
"That's nature! I can give my things if I want to, and if I don't want to give them, whoever wants to grab them will only burn them. When we go back, we will expand the cattle ranch, and by the way, we will go to other places and invest in a large ranch.
As long as our ranch can breed top-quality beef cattle, are you afraid that no one will spend money to purchase them?
Diners who can afford to consume this top-quality beef are, without exception, the rich and noble. The rarer it is, the more it can't be eaten, and the more these people will try their best to get it. How do they feel when they learn that they can't buy it with money?
Besides, Zhuang Haiyang, who returned to China, no matter how easy the other party wanted to pinch him so easily, he also had to consider the consequences. At least Zhuang Haiyang knows that because of the forced repatriation and ranching, China has also invested a lot of manpower and material resources to show its existence.
has been low-key and endured for so many years, and if you want to rise, you naturally can't blindly forbear. Occasionally showing the national strength and influence, I believe that some countries will understand that today's China is no longer the China of the early years.
The most important thing is that Zhuang Haiyang's existence is not limited to a rich man. To be precise, Zhuang Haiyang's technology and strength are indeed worthy of the country's attention. There are some things that no evidence does not mean that no one knows.
Take the reappearance of white dolphins in the Antarctic Sea, which is currently being investigated by all parties, and other countries think that the fleet wants to capture the white dolphins, and the white dolphins are finally killed. However, some people in China know that this matter is directly related to Zhuang Haiyang.
Especially some important members of the navy, they can basically surmise that this matter is not the handiwork of Zhuang Haiyang. If this speculation is true, then the existence of Zhuang Haiyang also has the deterrent power of a humanoid nuclear bomb.
Zhuang Haiyang, who embarked on the return journey, was not in a hurry to return to China, but led the fleet to the Antarctic Sea. The next time I come over, I guess I will have to wait for another year. Before leaving, catch more king crab and bring it back to China for sale, and the oil money can at least earn back!
It took about three days for all the tanks to be filled with king crabs, and with the exception of a few freezers that were not yet filled, the fleet set sail again on the way home. Occasionally, he encountered some research ships, but Zhuang Haiyang ignored them.
Just when Zhuang Haiyang entered Nanzhou Sea, he finally received a call from the lawyer team. As he had predicted, the ranch was eventually bought by an investment team from Sam's Country, and the price was also known as a discount.
Originally, Sam Country's investment team didn't want to buy the obviously abandoned ranch at a high price, but Zhuang Haiyang's lawyer said very directly: "Everyone, my agent, really doesn't care much about this ranch, and he doesn't mind whether he sells it or not."
It's just that before leaving, he told me that if the ranch can't be traded this month, then the price of the ranch next month, we will increase the reserve price by 20%. If it hasn't been transferred out after half a year, then give up listing for sale.
Of course, you can also use other forces to forcibly nationalize the pastures. It's just that the consequences of doing so, I believe you should all understand. You should have already learned what kind of personality my employer has, right?"
It is precisely because of Zhuang Haiyang's strength and the attitude that he would rather destroy the ranch than sell it at a low price. In the end, this ranch was sold for 80 million US dollars. This price has also appreciated several times compared to the original purchase.
But in the eyes of the investment team that bought the ranch, compared with the previous valuation of more than 200 million yuan for the ranch, buying the ranch at this price is also a big profit. The price of 80 million yuan is really not expensive! If the business is well managed, the investment will be recovered in one or two years.
After receiving a call from the lawyer's representative, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work! To be honest, I am very satisfied with this price." According to the agreement we reached before, I will give you a reward of 5 million for the extra 40 million. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Zhuang, and I hope we will have more opportunities to cooperate in the future. ”
If nothing else, I will be in need of elites like you to help deal with some international investment and cooperation in the future. I commissioned it before, you might as well work harder, and let's talk about it again if there is a suitable place, how about it?"
"Yes, please rest assured, our team will definitely find a more suitable island for investment than here!"
For Zhuang Haiyang, building an overseas ranch is also one of his wishes. Since the New Zealand side is not suitable for investment, it is believed that it is not a big problem to choose a new place to invest.
It's just that in the next investment, Zhuang Haiyang will be more cautious. Rather than investing in such a ranch, Zhuang Haiyang still prefers to buy a private island. If there is more money, he doesn't care, the key island is up to him.
In this way, Zhuang Haiyang can even deploy corresponding defense forces on private islands overseas. In that case, even if someone hits his mind again, he has to think about the consequences. Anyway, there are actually many people under him who dare to fight.
However, this kind of island purchase will also involve more political forces. This means that in some developed countries, it may be a bit troublesome to buy the islands you want. If it is placed in a backward area, the situation may be different.
According to Zhuang Haiyang's requirements, the lawyer team has been conducting inspections in some coastal countries in Africa. As long as the money given is enough, I believe that those countries with backward incomes should not mind selling an island to Zhuang Haiyang.
In fact, such situations are not uncommon all over the world. It's just that running such a large private island requires a lot of investment. But in Zhuang Haiyang's view, the money earned must be spent!
Knowing that the ranch was sold at a high price of 80 million, Hong Wei and the others also smiled and said, "So, your investment is still profitable?"
"That's natural! If they hadn't done it sooner, I'd have chosen not to sell it. I would like to see if the New Zealanders dare to reverse their investment policy and forcibly nationalize the pastures, which would have more to lose. ”
The credibility of a country is sometimes difficult to measure in money. There are also a number of private ranches purchased or invested by foreign capital in the territory of New Zealand. Who can guarantee that the situation of marine ranches will not happen to them in the future?
If investors lose confidence in the country's credibility, the consequences will inevitably hit the economy hard. Not to mention, the recent economic dispute alone has left the New Zealand side anxious.
The first to bear the brunt is the Chinese tourists who travel to New Zealand, which fell by more than half in an instant. In the past, some scenic spots that specially received Chinese tourists became deserted in an instant. The South Islands, on the other hand, are feeling the negative impact of the transfer of marine ranches.
The previous high-ranking officials who facilitated Sam's country were also wildly attacked by political opponents during this time. The severe setback in the export of agricultural and fishery products alone is enough to deprive these senior officials of opportunities for advancement and even power.
Fortunately, Zhuang Haiyang didn't care about these things at all, and after learning that the ranch had changed hands, he also called Louis and Janook directly. to the accounts of the two people, each with a reward of 200,000 US dollars.
In addition, he also called Louis 500,000 US dollars, and Zhuang Haiyang also said directly on the phone: "Louie, please tell those employees of the ranch that I am not used to saying goodbye, and I will not go back in the future."
The extra 500,000 US dollars, please discuss with Januk, and distribute this money to the employees of the ranch, which is my boss, and give them the final reward. After all, we had a great time working together, didn't we?"
"Okay, I'll thank the boss on their behalf, and I'm sure they'll be grateful to the boss too!"
Whether or not to pay the scattering fee is not a big problem. But Zhuang Haiyang sold the ranch and gave such a loose fee. When the new boss takes over the ranch, how much will he spend to buy the loyalty of these employees?
