Chapter 387: Investing in Wal-Mart
Master, is that you?" preserved the egg ran over and asked.
Ye Lin kicked over directly, kicked the preserved egg on the heel, and the preserved egg got up from the ground, rubbed his ass and said, "That's right, it's Master." ”
"Well deserved. Nima said to the preserved egg.
"Get out!"
"Alright, Tom and I may be out for a few days this time, and I'll leave it to you here, and give me a good look at the farm. ”
"Yes, Master. ”
Walmart's founder, Sam Walton, does not live in New York, but in Rajes, Arkansas, so Ye Lin is going to run with Tom this time.
The importance of this trip is probably only known to Ye Lin now! No one would have thought that a small chain store would become the world's largest company in the future.
Don't talk about others, Sam Walton probably didn't think of it, let alone Tom.
In terms of assets, Kirin Farm doesn't know how much higher it is than Wal-Mart.
That's the limitation, the farm has the limit, although the farm can be expanded, but it requires too much money.
Unlike stores, Wal-Mart was able to grow into the largest company in later generations because it needed less capital.
After the fame is out, as long as you rent a store and decorate it, everything in it does not cost a penny.
Not only that, but there are people who send money and then find a way to put things in your place to sell, which is why Wal-Mart has grown so much.
"Let's go. Ye Lin said to Tom.
"Yes. ”
Tom promised to go to the car as soon as he said it, but was stopped by Ye Lin.
"Master, what are you?"
"I came to drive, you seem to have forgotten, you are the boss. ”
"Ah, Master, I'm ...... What kind of boss am I? Boss or you. ”
"I'm talking about a legal person, and you are the boss of Longteng Investment. ”
"Ugh!"
The company was registered by Ye Lin asked Tom, of course Tom is the legal person of the company, but the shares accounted for are small after all, only one percent, and Ye Lin accounts for ninety-nine percent.
But Ye Lin is only a shareholder, and he is not involved in the operation of the company, so nominally, Tom is the owner of this company.
And Ye Lin has already thought about it, he only commands this investment company remotely, and does not participate in the operation, and this company only invests.
Although it is only the boss in name, that is also the boss.
You must know that you will have to meet with the lawyer later, so you have to do enough to play, only then will it be more like.
"Master, aren't you going to let the lawyer know your identity?"
How smart Tom is! I could see what Ye Lin meant.
"That's right, at least I can't let him know now, after all, I'm not from the United States. ”
"Alright then, I see. ”
"Let's go. ”
"Yes. ”
"I said can you kid use dim sum, with your current state, people don't have to think about it to understand what's going on. Ye Lin frowned and said.
"Uh, I know, Master. ”
Ye Lin drove to New York, first met with the lawyer, and then drove to Rajes, Arkansas, no way, although Ye Lin has a green card, but the way he is now, there is no way to take a plane.
If you don't want to bring a lawyer, you don't need to be so troublesome, Ye Lin can put on makeup later.
To be honest, Ye Lin was a little too careful, and even said that he was a little too careful, but he couldn't help it, because he thought it was better to be careful.
Two days later, three people and two cars arrived in Rajes, Arkansas, and the reason why it took so long was mainly because of the lawyers.
This guy was nagging all the way, he had to rest before he had gone far, and he had to go to eat before he had gone far, if he didn't need him, Ye Lin would have to beat him.
However, this also made Ye Lin disgusted with him, and he had already decided to fire him immediately when this matter was over.
"Master, I'm sorry. ”
"It's okay, let's get down to business first. ”
"Hmm!"
Mr. Walton lives in a small two-story wooden building on the outskirts of Rajes, Arkansas.
The yard is very large, at least a few hundred square meters, to be honest, Ye Lin doesn't understand why Mi Guoyan prefers houses with yards.
It would take half a day to walk from the door to the place where he lived, and Walton was not a rich man now, even poor, because his money was invested in the store.
There is not even a maid at home, Ye Lin went up and rang the doorbell, there is no way, he is just an employee now, the driver in charge of driving.
Soon a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her forties came out.
Needless to say, this should be Walton's wife, and if Walmart can have future achievements, Walton's wife definitely has half the credit.
Because Walmart has been a mom-and-pop store since the beginning.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Hello! We're from Dragon Investment, and we're looking for Mr. Walton. ”
Tom hurriedly stepped forward to explain his intentions, and Walton's wife opened the door completely and said, "Please come in." ”
"Thank you!"
In this house, Ye Lin met the legendary Walton, who was honestly a little old man.
The negotiations did not go very smoothly! Mainly because of the shares, although Walton is in need of money now, he just does not let go of the shares.
According to Wal-Mart's current assets, it is estimated that it is only 1 million US dollars, and Ye Lin originally planned to buy 90% of the shares for 12 million US dollars.
But this little old man didn't let go at all, after a week of back and forth, in the end, Ye Lin, no, it was Longteng Investment that bought 70% of the shares for 10 million US dollars.
Tom felt a great loss, even a lawyer, but only Ye Lin knew that he didn't lose at all, and even said that he made a lot of money.
After the contract was signed and the funds were transferred, Ye Lin asked Tom to give the lawyer's fee, and then sent the lawyer away.
"Master!"
"I'll go clean up first. ”
"Okay. ”
Ye Lin found a public bathroom, and then went in, and when he came out again, he had already recovered his original appearance.
"Let's go, go get something to eat first, and then get some rest. ”
In the past week, Ye Lin has been really tired, intriguing with an old fox every day, it's strange if he is not tired.
The old fox thought he had won, but in fact he had lost, and he had lost badly, but he didn't know it yet.
In a few years, it is estimated that he will find out how badly he lost this time.
Of course, this is because he didn't expect Walmart to develop them well, and he is really short of money right now.
With this 10 million US dollars, he can expand Wal-Mart tenfold in a very short period of time.
In that case, he earns, although he has less shares, but he earns more.
It's very simple, for example, now you can earn a hundred dollars, and this hundred dollars is all his, but with this money, it can be expanded tenfold.
Then it is a thousand dollars to earn, even if he is only three-tenths, that is three hundred dollars, three times more than before.
After a day off in Rajes, Arkansas, the two drove back to New York early the next morning, and a day later, the two returned to the farm.
Seeing the two people coming back, the three of them surrounded them.
"Master, how is it?
"It's okay!"
Nima then put his arm on Tom and asked, "Tom, what's wrong with you?" ”
"10 million US dollars, 10 million US dollars will take 70% of the shares. Tom said
"What, ten million dollars?" Radish was taken aback.
You know, that's 10 million dollars! Seventy percent of the shares is indeed a bit less, and 90 percent is about the same.
Others don't know what's going on, but the radish is clear! With the current Wal-Mart, it's not worth that much money at all.
10 million, you can build ten current Wal-Mart, he doesn't understand why Master has to spend so much money to buy Wal-Mart.
"Alright, the turnip stays, what are you supposed to do. ”
"Oh!"
Ye Lin walked into the house, Radish hurriedly followed, and when he came to the house, Radish asked, "Master, what did you tell me about?"
"How are you feeling at Walmart these days?"
The farm not only supplies Walmart stores, but also has people in charge, so the turnips are basically there every day during this time.
"It's very hot, many people go to buy things, especially the pork on our farm, which was relatively normal at first, but in the past two days, it was basically robbed as soon as it was put on the shelves. ”
The standard of living in the United States at this time is relatively high, unlike in China, the reason why the country likes to eat fatty meat is because of the lack of oil and water.
But the rice country is not, they are not short of oil and water, so the meat of the Qilin Farm, which is half wild boar and half domestic pig, is more popular with the rice country.
"And if I ask you to open a store like this, can you do it?"
"Master, are you going to open a store?" asked Radish as she looked at Ye Lin in surprise.
"It's not that I'm going to open it, it's that you're going to open it. ”
"Uh, Master, what are you?"
"From today onwards, you stay at Wal-Mart, watch more, talk less, learn their patterns, and then I'll open you a store like this, and you'll be in charge." ”
"What, Master, what you said is true?"
"Of course, as long as you can do a good job, funding is not a problem, and you can do what you want, I will not be involved in management. ”
Although Ye Lin has invested in Wal-Mart, he does not participate in the management of Wal-Mart, to put it bluntly, he is a shareholder, just the biggest antique.
And this request was made by himself, because Ye Lin knew that it was much better to let Walton's old man run it than to run it himself.
Ye Lin just wants to make money, he doesn't care about whether he can participate in management at all, and managing a company is not so easy.
"But Master, haven't you already bought Wal-Mart, and why are you still opening a store?"
"You don't have to worry about this, you just do what I say. ”
"Yes, Master. ”
Although Wal-Mart looks good now, no one dares to guarantee that he will open his own one because of his own variables.
