Volume 1 opens 41 multimillionaires

Ye Mingyue didn't speak, just looked at Garcia and Renaud quietly, as if she was thinking. A minute later, he picked up his coffee cup, took a sip, and continued to look at the two of them.

Garcia and Renault were a little embarrassed, and the rest of the entourage looked at each other. Renault reminded Ye Mingyue again and said, "Miss Ye, are you satisfied with this price?"

Ye Mingyue still didn't say anything, took another sip of coffee, thought about it, took out a folder from under the coffee table, took out an A4 printer paper from the folder, put it on the coffee table, and said: "Garcia, Mr. Renault, are you sure that this is your final offer? After speaking, he picked up the tray with ambergris on the coffee table and walked steadily upstairs.

Garcia picked up the A4 paper on the coffee table and saw that it was clearly printed in French:

1. Since ancient times, ambergris has been used as a high-grade spice, and the fragrance company will grade the acquired ambergris, grind it into a very fine powder, dissolve it in alcohol, and then prepare it into a 5% concentration ambergris solution, which is used in the preparation of perfumes or as a fixative. The various ingredients in ambergris can be synthesized, but they cannot completely replace the ambergris given to humans by the sea, because human technology has not yet reached the wonder and harmony of nature, especially the unique ingredient in natural ambergris - ambergris, which will form a film on the skin after being added to perfume, which can make the fragrance last for a long time.

2. Ambergris has a fixed five grades in the world, and each grade is worth twice or several times the value, which is recognized by all experts. Five grades: super, pure white, unseen in the world for nearly 100 years, almost extinct, in legends, priceless, supergrade, milky white, occasional, large in size, rare, difficult to estimate, high-grade, amber, rare, price over diamonds, gemstones, medium-grade, off-white, found 220 pounds per year, the price is the same as gold, lower grade, black-gray, found 600 pounds per year, the price follows the market.

3. In 1990, a Scottish fisherman was given a piece of amber ambergris, weighing 5 pounds, which was acquired by Chanel for $8 million.

4. From March to June 1996, the three major auction houses of Sotheby, Christie's and Phillips will hold spring auctions in New York, London and Paris respectively, which is 3-6 months away.

Garcia read it with a red face, and handed the A4 paper to Renault. Renault sighed after reading it, and asked the appraiser and legal counsel to also take turns to read the paper, and everyone's faces were hot, Miss Ye had done enough homework in advance, and gave enough face, otherwise these two so-called French aristocratic enterprises would trade two pieces of Xishi Treasure at this price?

In fact, the sensible council of the two companies gave Garcia and Renault more than ten times the price they offered, not only because after decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation, Chanel and Lancôme are not bad money masters at all, but also because all the members of the board of directors are old foxes who have become fine, if it is really as the intelligence said, it is two pieces of super and special ambergris, and each piece weighs more than 5 pounds, then pay any price, in your own hands, the return in the future will definitely exceed ten times the investment, because there is little or no ambergris of this grade in the world in the past hundred years, which can be called priceless, how to hype it in the future, it's not a matter of course.

If Garcia and Renault lose the opportunity to get these two pieces of ambergris because of their selfishness, they should also "say goodbye to their hometown" when they go back to France. What's more, the reference price listed by Ye Mingyue is still a case reported by Chanel's own company, which makes Garcia even more ashamed.

Garcia sat down on the sofa in frustration and said to Renault: "Dear François, you also know our reserve price and resources, you will come and confirm the price with Miss Ye later, I am really ashamed to say it." Miss Ye is really amazing, I have never seen such a young Chinese girl, I am so sorry to make me so embarrassed. ”

Renault also smiled bitterly helplessly, this Chinese girl's subtle and restrained methods caught the two shrewd businessmen a little off guard.

Ye Mingyue looked leisurely in the mirror in the bathroom upstairs, admiring her young and delicate appearance, she was confident at this point, her beautiful face and unique temperament from the depths of her heart were very rare among girls of this age, no wonder there were so many outstanding boys chasing after her at Kyoto University, no wonder Chen Xing fell in love with her at first sight, and missed her day and night.

For the transaction downstairs, she didn't have much fluctuation in her heart, she did all the homework she could, and Brother Xingxing was also fully authorized and trusted in this matter, so what else did she have to worry about.

For Garcia and Renault's first offer, I can only say "hehe" in my heart. Leave the relevant information printed and let them think for themselves, just show their attitude, don't think of yourself as a child, for this transaction, you have done enough research and investigation. Either give a reasonable price, otherwise we have other options, no matter how shrewd and cunning these two Frenchmen are, as long as they have a good grasp of the bottom line, ten minutes is enough time for them to negotiate the result.

Mingyue tied her shawl hair into a ponytail in front of the mirror again, and the whole person suddenly looked even more energetic, pinching the time, and came to the living room downstairs empty-handed, and ambergris stayed in the bedroom for the time being.

Garcia and Renaud sat on the sofa with extremely serious expressions, the two appraisers were sent to the door of the villa to enjoy the view, their work had been completed, and the final quotation was still necessary to be kept secret, only the legal counsel of the two companies sat next to them.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Garcia and Mr. Renault, I've been waiting. Mingyue said to the two Frenchmen with a slight apology, then picked up the coffee pot that was always heated by electricity, filled the four guests in the room with coffee, and also filled up her own cups, and sat down on the sofa elegantly.

Renault didn't hesitate this time, coughed slightly, and said, "Miss Ye, we have just carefully studied the information you provided us, which is very important and helpful to us. You can see that you are a very strict lady, and we really enjoy working with a partner like you, and on this basis, we have come up with a trading plan. ”

After a pause, seeing that Mingyue was still listening calmly, Renault continued: "

Taking a big sip of coffee, Renault continued: "If Miss Ye agrees to this transaction plan, we will be responsible for all related costs, including but not limited to: all relevant taxes related to you, property and goods transfer costs incurred as a result of the transaction, and travel expenses incurred by you and your designated personnel when they travel to various countries to complete the transfer. ”

One of the accompanying legal counsel also took out a stack of documents from his briefcase, handed it to Mingyue and said, "Miss Ye, here is the text version of the transaction plan that Mr. Renault said, as well as the detailed description of the relevant property and yacht and a copy of the legal text, you can take a closer look." ”

Ye Mingyue took the document handed over by the legal counsel, looked carefully at the transaction plan that Renault just said, thought for two minutes, looked up and said, "Mr. Renault, I understand this plan, you can talk about your conditions first." ”

Seeing Mingyue so calm, Renault also secretly admired it in his heart, and he said: " Miss Ye is refreshing, our conditions are very simple: 1. This transaction is completely confidential, please do not disclose all the terms of the transaction in the media; 2. Before the transaction is completed, please Miss Ye and us go to Paris, we sign a custody agreement to keep the ambergris in the Bank of Paribas, both parties keep a key, only get together two keys, can take the ambergris, of course, this custody agreement is subject to our transaction contract, you have the initiative, when all the transaction procedures are completed, funds and property, The items are all in your name, and you hand over the key to us, and the transaction is officially completed;3. You can get such a good and rare thing, it must be a lucky person, we hope that if you get similar items again, you can be the first to consider our two companies, so that we have the right of first refusal and purchase. ”

Mingyue nodded, stood up, and said: "I clearly understand the transaction plan and conditions of Garcia and Mr. Renault, I will also take a detailed look at the information of the property and yacht you left, the conditions here are relatively simple, I won't leave a few gentlemen to have dinner today, tomorrow at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, we will still meet here, what is my final answer to you?"

Several Frenchmen also stood up, and Garcia said: "Okay, please Miss Ye must consider our conditions, we will come to visit again tomorrow, I hope our transaction is a complete success, and Mr. Renault and I will have a banquet for Miss Ye at Victoria's Marina Restaurant to celebrate the happy cooperation!"

Seeing off the six visiting Frenchmen, looking at the documents in her hand, Ye Mingyue was full of emotion, and thought in her heart: "Great, my star brother, as long as I nod to the French tomorrow, you will be a multimillionaire, or tens of millions of dollars, which makes us hard-working people, where can we be reasonable." Fortunately, you are my boyfriend, so should I be called a multimillionaire in the future...... Madame?"

Mingyue, whose face was slightly red, thought happily that at this moment, she was like a girl of this age. What girl in love would not be proud of the achievements of her beloved, let alone such dazzling achievements! She never considered what a huge role she played in helping Chen Xing achieve such a big harvest!
