Chapter 358: The Ranch Changes Hands
The first batch of 10 security personnel recruited, the male team members rotate to go to sea with the ship in pairs, and the female team members rotate once a month to protect their girlfriends secretly. As in the past, the salvage team will go out to sea to fish as soon as the weather permits.
Perhaps because of the pressure on funds, Zhuang Haiyang, who has ended the fishing moratorium, is much more positive than before in the eyes of many comrades-in-arms. Although I still need to rest when I come back as before, the time has been shortened to one day.
Knowing that Zhuang Haiyang was preparing to buy a marine ranch overseas and urgently needed a large amount of money, other comrades-in-arms could also understand why this was the case. As some comrades-in-arms said, the richer a person is, the more he feels that money does not seem to be enough.
After three months of negotiations, the law firm hired by Zhuang Haiyang finally reached an agreement with the consulting company and the rancher. It took so long to negotiate, and in Zhuang Haiyang's opinion, it was still fruitful.
At the beginning, the rancher bit the bottom line of 35 million and refused to lower it, but in the end it was reached at a price of 30 million. The saving of 5 million US dollars is equivalent to saving Zhuang Haiyang the fees for consulting and hiring a lawyer.
What makes Zhuang Haiyang most happy is that the law firm and consulting company have obtained the same qualifications as a local rancher for him. As other overseas buyers, it is difficult to obtain the same qualifications as local ranchers!
From the initial price of 38 million to the transaction of 30 million, it is enough to show that the hiring of a lawyer group still has a role. After finding a convenient time for his girlfriend, Zhuang Haiyang set off for New Sile again to participate in the final three-way signing.
Unlike the previous time, Zhuang Haiyang, who went abroad this time, brought four security personnel. If nothing else, after the purchase agreement is reached, Zhuang Haiyang also needs to stay overseas for a period of time to completely tidy up the ranch.
Sitting on the plane, Concubine Li also said with emotion: "30 million ranch, plus other expenses, should cost 300 million, right? It's really unimaginable to spend so much money to buy such a ranch." ”
"Why? It's distressing! You have to think about it, if it weren't for the rancher who couldn't hold on, the price wouldn't have been negotiable. In fact, initially, I prepared 400 million funds. Now 300 million can be won, which is already very rare!"
As Zhuang Haiyang said, he borrowed Zhao Penglin's 100 million funds, and he didn't use them for the time being. If nothing else, the ranch sequence also needs to be invested. In the final analysis, it still takes money to buy this kind of ranch overseas.
The extra funds can also allow Zhuang Haiyang to carry out a new round of expansion and renewal of the ranch according to the planned plan in advance. Running a ranch overseas, Zhuang Haiyang is afraid that it will be difficult to bring his domestic comrades-in-arms over.
Arriving at New Zealand Airport, seeing the lawyer of the firm and the manager of the consulting company who came to pick up the airport, Zhuang Haiyang hugged the lawyer gently and said: "Lawyer Chen, this negotiation has been hard!"
In fact, you chose the right time to do the economic downturn in New Zealand in the past two years. Many ranchers are on the verge of bankruptcy, and they can only continue to lose money if they do not sell. ”
"Hehe, yes! However, the transaction price of 30 million is almost the same. ”
"Well, if the economy recovers, the value of this ranch may increase. Of course, the most important thing is to see if you can raise the reputation of the ranch in the future. Here, most of the core values of the ranch are related to the ranch brand. ”
As a lawyer specializing in overseas mergers and acquisitions, Zhuang Haiyang's order this time is more for the sake of Zhao Penglin's introduction. In fact, a case of about 30 million is really nothing for a firm like them.
Fortunately, in terms of hiring fees, Zhuang Haiyang is still very generous. Because of this, the lawyer in charge of negotiation will also do his best to fight for Zhuang Haiyang's benefits. Even, handle all the official formalities needed for him.
What Zhuang Haiyang needs to do is to sign the corresponding documents and finally pay the corresponding fees. In addition, with the relationship established by this acquisition of the ranch, the firm will be able to undertake the legal needs of Zhuang Haiyang in the future.
"Manager Will, it's a pleasure to see you again!"
"Zhuang, these lawyers you hired are indeed very powerful. Hopefully, in the future, we will have the opportunity to continue working together. ”
You should know that if I don't find it a pleasure to work with you, I can actually work with other consulting firms. Now that the cooperation has been reached, there should be a lot of places where we can still cooperate in the future. ”
"Thank you!"
It is clear that this kind of consulting company provides consulting in other aspects in addition to engaging in this kind of ranch transaction. Even, if Zhuang Haiyang needs it, the consulting company can also provide legal advice.
In a word, sometimes you need to look at people's feelings when doing things at home, and when you do things overseas, many times you only talk about money!
After not staying at the airport for long, the group changed to a business plane and arrived at the South Island airport. Although the ranch that Beidao has seen is also in the target that Zhuang Haiyang is considering buying. Unfortunately, the rancher seemed to be more difficult to deal with.
The most important thing is that the rancher has good financial resources, and he is actually reluctant to sell the ranch inherited by the family. In this case, it is undoubtedly more difficult to reduce the price of the acquisition.
On the other hand, the ranch in the South Island is relatively easy to talk about. The reason is that the rancher of the South Island has decided to live in Melijian. For him, if the ranch is not sold, he will not be able to leave for a day, and he will not be able to directly realize the ranch.
When I arrived at the ranch, the rancher I had dealt with before still gave me a warm hug. It's just that after hugging, the rancher still said with a bitter face: "Zhuang, the lawyer you hired is really powerful." You've really earned it this time!"
"They are all elite lawyers I hired, and the level of business is naturally okay. As for earning, I believe no one knows now. It's just that you should know that this ranch has become a burden for you now, isn't it?"
"Yes, but I want you to do as promised, and pay the full amount of the transaction after completing the transaction. ”
"It's natural! What I promised, I will definitely keep!"
Compared to when I came to visit during the summer vacation, the ranch is now much more empty. The cows that were raised before have been sold by the rancher. The reason is that Zhuang Haiyang doesn't seem to have much interest in raising dairy cows.
In addition to a few meat sheep, there are some horses that cowboys need to ride. Including the fishing boats used by the ranch before, Zhuang Haiyang was not interested. In his opinion, many things need to be repurchased with subsequent money.
As the saying goes, 'the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come', as the new owner of the ranch, Zhuang Haiyang naturally needs to re-plan the ranch. For their part, the local government is also happy to see ranchers invest more money in their ranches.
Whether it is recruiting workers or doing some infrastructure construction, it can generate corresponding tax revenue for the local area. On the other hand, the rancher who sells the ranch wants him to continue to invest in the ranch, except for applying for a loan, he is afraid that it will be difficult.
Under the witness of local government personnel, Zhuang Haiyang, under the guidance of his lawyer, began to sign the corresponding ranch transfer documents with the rancher. The government can also collect corresponding taxes for such large transactions, and it is also happy to see such transactions occur.
Exchanging documents, Mr. Scu, the original rancher, also said sincerely: "Mr. Zhuang, from now on, the ranch will be handed over to you to manage." I hope this ranch can restore its former fame in your hands!"
"It's natural! To me, even if Mr. Scu lowers the sale price, it's still a lot of money. In order to buy this ranch, most of the money I have earned in the past few years has been invested in it, and naturally I don't want to lose money. ”
"Then I wish you a good start. ”
For Sku, it was a joy that the ranch that had been making him lose money had finally been sold. But this ranch was inherited by his family, and now he is still quite reluctant to sell it to Zhuang Haiyang.
In addition to signing the transaction documents belonging to the ranch, the follow-up lawyer also asked Zhuang Haiyang to sign some corresponding documents with the official. These documents are also the rights that Zhuang Haiyang can enjoy in the future, such as fishing rights and private property rights of pastures.
In Nyusilet, private ranches are also equal to private land. If the rancher trespasses on the ranch without the permission of the rancher, the rancher has the right to pursue legal responsibility. Even if it's a little more brutal, there's no problem in killing it.
When exchanging these documents, the political officer sent also smiled and said: "Mr. Zhuang, you are welcome to invest in the South Island, and I hope that the next ranch will bring more fame and taxes to the South Island under your management." ”
"This is what I am looking forward to! In the future, I hope that the administrative officer will help you a lot, and there should be many places that need to trouble you by then. In the future, I will invest between NZ$3 and NZ$5 million to carry out a new round of design and renovation of the ranch. ”
Hearing that Zhuang Haiyang would invest so much money in the first phase to transform the ranch infrastructure, the administrative officer was naturally happy. Whether it is materials or labor, it will bring a certain amount of income to local residents.
In times of economic downturn, countries are taking unemployment very seriously. Once the base of the unemployed population increases, it will also cause a lot of pressure on the local government. That's why the government is happy to facilitate the deal.
Referring to the matter of hiring manpower, Zhuang Haiyang thought for a while and said, "I still need to think about this aspect. When the time comes, I'll ask Mr. Scu for advice. I'm sure he should be able to give me good advice. ”
Compared with the official recommendation, Zhuang Haiyang believes in the workers recommended by Sku. For those workers who have been laid off, a new rancher means they are unemployed. Whether he can continue to stay in the ranch depends on whether Zhuang Haiyang is willing to hire him.
Not to mention the others, just those crew members who are responsible for ranch fishing, Zhuang Haiyang will definitely not hire them in a short time. Even, when the distant-water fishing vessel is built, he will give priority to the recruited comrades-in-arms when the crew is completed.
At this point, the local government also promised to give Zhuang Haiyang a quota for free employment. It's just that while hiring foreign crews, the government also hopes that Zhuang Haiyang will hire some local crews to create more employment opportunities!
