Spencer felt that it was not for nothing that the Lee consortium could have such a development, look at this helmsman, at such a young age, he has trained his business cheeks so thickly, this is selling people and hoping that people will help him count the money.

At the same time, he also saw that the Li consortium really wanted to eat these companies in one bite, and he didn't believe that Li Guangyu didn't know what he and others thought, and now this kind of response made Spencer feel very difficult.

These families also hope to be able to swallow these businesses in one bite this time, so that the future development of their families will not be too problematic.

Whether it is a power company, a water company, or a natural gas company, these are all used by the public every day, and there is basically no risk in investing in these, even if they are old and others, the successor is not angry, and with the shares of these companies in hand, they will not be impoverished, and they will not even lose all their family business for hundreds of years.

Spencer didn't want his son to be forced to sell the Olthorp estate after a hundred years, which was something that the Spencer family had been doing for hundreds of years, and whoever sold the estate would be a sinner of the Spencer family.

So this time, he must fight for these companies, not only for the interest group he is in, but also for his descendants to be able to keep the manor and the roots of the Spencer family in the future.

He said to Li Guangyu: "I admire Mr. Li's mood very much, but we, as British nobles, enjoy the respect of the citizens for us, this time when it comes to such a thing, naturally it should be up to us people to bear such a responsibility, to be a good logistics minister for the citizens, I don't think it bothers Mr. Li for such a thing." ”

Li Guangyu was also speechless for this earl, he used his own words, and he didn't use the excuse to find a new one, and people had more sufficient reasons to do so.

However, Li Guangyu will not choose to give up the acquisition, he just returned empty-handed in France, he doesn't want to come again on the British side, in that case, he will really get nothing when he comes to Western Europe this time, how can he be willing.

Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Earl, the profitability of these enterprises is not high, why do you spend a lot of investment on this, so I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses, I really came with a heart of service this time, you can take a look at our enterprises in Xiangjiang that are involved in this area, they are all low-profit enterprises, and even some are currently operating at a loss." ”

Spencer doesn't believe in Li Guangyu's set, he has already monopolized many industries, even if the profits are low and there is a market of millions of people, it is a terrifying data.

If he didn't make money, Li Guangyu was afraid that he would have given up the dialogue with him a long time ago, and he Li Guangyu was not a fool, how could he risk offending their British aristocracy without enough interests and compete with him for the right to acquire these companies.

Spencer didn't want to continue to go around in circles with Li Guangyu, and now the time was not early, he said straight to the point: "Mr. Li, we don't talk darkly, this time the British government took out these enterprises, and I and some families have made a lot of efforts, but I didn't expect Mr. Li to come so quickly, which made us a little unexpected, I don't know if Mr. Li can make some concessions, we really don't want to compete with the Li consortium in business." ”

At present, the competition between the Li consortium and them is not large, the Li consortium has not come in at all in real estate, the mineral sector is developed separately and is not disturbed, and the Li consortium has not interfered in tourism, and their aristocratic class has no hostility towards the Li consortium.

In their homeland, the most powerful battle of the Li consortium is not their traditional nobles, but more of the new families, especially those financial families and business families.

The industries of these families in Xiangjiang were very badly suppressed by the Li consortium, and many families even directly gave up the Xiangjiang market, holding a grudge against the Li consortium.

It's a pity that the gap with the Li consortium is getting bigger and bigger, and there is no way to take the Li consortium, so they can only endure it.

Li Guangyu also thought about it seriously, although he has strong financial resources, if he is willing to spend his blood, he will be able to eat these companies.

It's just that in this way, it really offends the entire British aristocracy, and the profits of these companies are far from those of their own groups, and it seems that it is not worth offending many British aristocratic families for this profit.

Now everyone is focusing on the three companies of electricity, tap water, and natural gas, and as long as these three companies are won, they can collect money with peace of mind and not worry about the impact of economic changes on them.

After thinking for a while, Li Guangyu said: "In order to show my respect for you and make a friend with you, I am willing to give up the acquisition of the natural gas company." ”

Spencer was very happy to see that Li Guangyu was willing to make concessions, although he only gave up a company, which meant that they had room for negotiation.

To tell the truth, he didn't want to be an enemy of the Li Consortium, that would only make them suffer huge losses, although they were confident that they could create huge trouble for the Li Consortium, but he was not willing to do such a deal of killing the enemy and losing eight hundred.

Everyone is a businessman, cooperation is the best choice, unless absolutely necessary, fighting each other is not what smart people should do.

Spencer said with a smile: "We are also honest and Mr. Li to make friends, we don't want Mr. Li to withdraw from the acquisition of any company, we prefer to have a joint venture with Mr. Li, we all know that Mr. Li and many forces have established joint ventures."

I don't know if Mr. Li would like to set up a joint venture with us to invest in some industries in the United Kingdom, even the Commonwealth and the European Community, but we don't mind that this company is controlled by Mr. Li's personnel. ”

Li Guangyu's head suddenly had a short circuit for a moment, and Spencer's turn was suddenly too fast, and he still hoped that he would withdraw from this acquisition, and suddenly wanted to establish a joint venture investment company with himself, and also gave control to himself.

This really caught Li Guangyu a little off guard, and he was really a little confused about Spencer's plans.

When Li Guangyu didn't know, Spencer had already communicated with some dukes and marquises, Li Guangyu's development was limitless, and over the years, the companies that cooperated with Li Guangyu were able to drink soup, and they also wanted to take this development express this time.

As long as Lee is willing to make concessions on this acquisition, then they will raise the issue of establishing a joint venture.

If Li Guangyu is too lonely and doesn't take these nobles seriously, then they can only go the opposite way.

Now it is obviously developing in a good direction, Li Guangyu is a person who examines the degree, and he does not ignore them because he has strong financial resources.

And they hope that the establishment of this joint venture company can develop rapidly under the leadership of Li Guangyu, not to mention that they can invest in some companies with good development potential like New Asia and Zhonghua Investment Corporation.

They will not follow the example of those families in the United States to suppress the Lee consortium, they do not have the strength to reach the top of the world, nor do they have such ambitions, Li Guangyu has created such a miracle of wealth in just a few years, if they can make friends or even cooperate, they will naturally consider cooperation.
