Chapter 165: Heritage

The most expensive house in the world is Buckingham Palace, which may be valued at more than a billion pounds, and the Rockefeller family house is not bad, mainly because it contains many antiques, and the building itself is not spectacular, compared with Versailles, the Louvre, etc.

Richard Rockefeller's great-grandfather, John Rockefeller Jr., was fond of collecting when he was alive, and he and his wife collected more than 100,000 exquisite cultural relics from all over the world, most of which were donated and some were kept at home as decorations.

So when Ye Dongqing walked in, he immediately felt a strong smell of money coming to his face, exquisite porcelain, wood carved door gods, Ming and Qing dynasty furniture, curtains painted with dragon patterns, and so on...... Ye Dongqing never expected that there would be so many Chinese elements, and he was visiting this house under the guidance of Richard.

When they arrived at a showroom, Richard pointed to the empty wall and told Ye Dongqing: "There was originally a sculpture of a white marble Bodhisattva from the Tang Dynasty here, which looked like a Chinese Venus with a broken arm, but it was sent to Germany to participate in the exhibition, and I used to paint on it when I was a child." ”

The tone is understated, not like showing off at all, in fact, their family already has everything material, the so-called three generations have cultivated a nobleman, and the history of the Rockefeller family far exceeds this number, and the background is amazing.

Everywhere reflects the heritage of the Rockefeller family, which is incomparable to Ye Dongqing, especially in terms of thought, Richard's family has done good deeds for more than a hundred years, and will donate a large amount of money almost every year, and he is still like a Pixiu who only goes in and out, even if he spends money, he is used for enjoyment.

Of course, given the nature of charitable trusts, there is also an element of avoiding inheritance tax, which is one of the reasons why the Rockefeller family is so wealthy.

was amazed, at this moment, Ye Dongqing also hoped that after more than a hundred years, his descendants would be able to live such a life, and whenever people mentioned their names, they would feel respect from the bottom of their hearts.

It is worthy of being the most famous wealthy family in the United States, countless collections have taken Ye Dongqing's eyes, antique cultural relics in turbulent times are worthless, and now it will be a big price to buy.

These are just things that are kept in the house, and there are many more in the museum, donated by the Rockefeller family, Richard's great-grandmother is one of the founders of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and Van Gogh's "Starry Night" and "Apricot Blossoms" that Miss Marhi talked about, these once belonged to this family.

There are also dozens of sculptures in the courtyard, many of which are masterpieces, and Ye Dongqing feels that he may not be able to gather such a large scale of artworks when he dies of old age.

Since meeting Richard Rockefeller, Renee has forgotten Ye Dongqing in a blink of an eye, and at this moment there is only the existence of this rich man in her eyes, and she is almost about to burst into stars.

Laura was speechless when she saw this, not in the slightest doubt that if Richard hooked her fingers, she would be able to fall into the other's arms.

What is visiting someone else's house, it is like visiting a museum, the original pride and complacency have disappeared under the aura of the old Rockefeller's legacy, Ye Dongqing feels that he should work harder.

Sitting on the sofa drinking black tea at the moment, he said to Richard: "I see that so many people are here today, you don't have to take care of us so much, go and go about your own business, thank you very much." ”

"It doesn't matter, except for you, everyone else has known me for a long time, just say hello, my relatives and juniors will help me receive it, and they don't have any investment projects that interest me, buy you with this pot of tea, maybe they will be willing to take me to participate in the financing." ”

did not hide his purpose at all, saying this would not make Ye Dongqing feel disgusted, and shook his head with a smile and said: "Then I can only say that your vision is very good, but unfortunately I know very well how far Facebook can grow in the future, and I am not short of money in my hands, so just a cup of tea can't impress me."

However, if you're willing to pay a small price, I can give you some investment advice that will make you money, and maybe we can work together, Facebook is one of the best investments, but there are other companies that are also very promising. ”

"What is the price?" asked Richard with interest.

Ye Dongqing is not a wealth boy, it is impossible for the other party to be a little nicer to him, so he will tell others how to make money in vain, but there are too many opportunities for investment, and he can't seize them all, but he doesn't mind borrowing other people's funds to help him make more money.

He replied, "Some time ago I worked with that fat boy Edward from the Johnson family in Boston, and his mother is the CEO of Fidelity Investment Group, you should have heard of it, right?"

Seeing Richard nodding, Ye Dongqing continued: "It's just that in just half a month, he and I have each earned more than 40 million US dollars, if it weren't for that guy's temporary change of mind and withdrawal of funds, the total profit would have been another 400 million US dollars, and it would only be a month or two before and after."

I'm not trying to say how good I am, of course, I'm really good, but what I really want to tell you is that there aren't many opportunities to make quick money, and if you agree to cooperate, maybe you have to invest money for more than ten years, and I gave him a cooperation agreement at that time, and now I can work with you according to that agreement, and before that you have to tell me how much money you can use to invest in the long term. ”

“…… I can borrow some more from my father, a total of about 70 million US dollars, and if I borrow some money from other siblings, it will be about 150 million US dollars at most, I am not as rich as you, and I used to live on trusts. ”

These words made Ye Dongqing feel very comfortable, his surname was Rockefeller, and he also said that he didn't have any money, which was indeed worth being happy about.

The reason why there is no mention of the wealth management products of the freshwater fund is mainly because you must buy a large amount of stable bonds to reduce risks, otherwise you will be targeted by the Securities and Exchange Commission again.

At this moment, he nodded and said: "This is already a lot of money, maybe you can find some friends with a good relationship and invest with them, I just invested more than 70 million US dollars in an Internet company, and there is also a very good investment project, and the profit is quite considerable." ”

This is saying that Alibaba, there are only so many large Internet companies that will be valuable in the future, and it is normal for him to be targeted.

Richard said: "I will ask, you send me the cooperation agreement first, if you can I will entrust you to help me take care of this asset, since the death of my great-grandfather, there is no second business genius in the family except for my grandfather, in fact, my grandfather is not doing very well, I am more willing to believe in you than believe in myself......"
