Chapter 50: Maybe It's Time to Find a Woman

John's negotiation skills are quite skilled. He went on and on, and after seeing the farm, Link was generally satisfied, but there were all sorts of minor problems.

The two sides were not able to reach an agreement on the same day. However, after three days, Goodwin finally couldn't hold back and agreed to sell for 45 million.

After the two sides signed the deal, Goodwin and Link shook hands and left in a helicopter.

Most of the farm workers remained. And the house on this farm already belongs to Link. There is no need for them to rush back to Nevada.

The two celebrated with a glass of red wine. John couldn't help but ask him, "How do you know he's going to cut the price?"

"I'm just taking a gamble. Link said with a smile. "Didn't you notice that most of what he said that day was about Europe?"

"He's British, and it's normal to be interested in things in Europe. John didn't understand.

But he said he had lived in the United States for eight years. "For Westerners, moving is the most common thing if things don't go well there. Goodwin's career is in the United States, and he is used to living in the United States again. But most of what he said was about Europe. That means his heart has already flown to Europe, but he still stays in the United States.

He smiled and said, "You said he had a fiancΓ©e, but he was alone that day, and you said his fiancΓ©e was in Europe." ”

Goodwin must have been fascinated by the fact that he would rather pay more than $200 million in alimony than divorce to marry the model, but he remained in the United States. That shows that he was actually desperate to sell the properties he wanted to sell. And he believed that the rich people must have seen this too, and it was impossible to give him a price that he would accept.

He's just trying to keep the price down, even though there's a risk of being cut off. But now it seems that he made the right bet.

"If you do that, you're probably going to lose my commission. John said with a laugh. "However, can we ask the other two for the price next?"

"Yes. But I'll give you the payment for this deal first. ”

Hanova Farm was won, and the remaining two also lost the capital to sell at a high price. He can also grind slowly, and it doesn't matter if he can't buy it in the end. Of course, it would be best if you could win them all.

"I want to take the Merce Vecchilo farm first. Maybe we can go and see it together. "Previously, because of his health problems, Link didn't come over to see when he was negotiating with Hanova Farm, and he didn't rush over until he finally reached a certain agreement. Now that Link was here, he thought Link was better off checking it out. If he thinks it's appropriate, he will be more confident when he goes to talk.

Otherwise, Link suddenly regretted not wanting it in the middle of his conversation, and he would have worked in vain.

The owner of Merce Vecchilo's farm happened to be on the farm, and when they went to ask for the price, the farmer welcomed them very warmly. However, he only took them around the farm, and did not talk about buying and selling. Because the sale of this farm has been handed over to a real estate agent. It is also a breach of contract for the farmer to talk to them directly, leaving the broker alone.

After seeing Merce Vecchilo's farm, Link signed a power of attorney with John, entrusting him to negotiate with the other party. As for himself, he rushed to Las Vegas again to take a plane back to Las Vegas.

Kate happened to be on the farm when he returned to the farm.

Kate happened to be back to the villa with a sunhat: "Link, everything is going well in New Mexico?"

"Yes. Now I have two farms. Link said with a smile. "Are you going to see the project?

The two chatted under the eaves outside the villa.

"All well!" said Kate, taking off her hat, she had been a little tanned in the low sun these days, but that didn't detract from her beauty. "I think Hans Farm will be in operation next year. ”

"Grape Circle needs vine seedlings, do you have anything to introduce?"

"It may be a bit difficult, because I only work on agriculture, but I don't study wine. Kate also frowned and said. "But if you don't want to buy the seedlings directly, I suggest you go to California, where the vineyards are cut and pruned every year. ”

Link nodded and said, "Maybe that's a good idea." But when they pruned, we probably hadn't done the irrigation facilities yet. And those pruned vines, we may not be able to get that. "After all, the grapes in those vineyards are grown by themselves. They may not be willing to give those grapes to a possible competitor.

"That's really a problem. Kate knew his worries, too. She thought for a moment and said with a smile. "Maybe you can buy some grape seeds and plant them. ”

Of course you can. But the quality of the wine also has a certain relationship with the age of the grapes.

Link didn't want to talk about it for a while, and he asked, "Kate, if I'm going to build a small airport?"

"That's not a problem, if you're just going to build a runway for small planes to take off and land, it won't take up too much land. ”

Link nodded and said, "I'm planning to buy a small plane." It is mainly used as a means of transportation between two farms. ”

Even the biggest plane he can afford now, but it's not necessary. He also has to consider various maintenance when he buys those business jets and business jets. And he doesn't need that plane for the time being.

"So, on another farm, you're going to build a small airport. ”

Link nodded and said, "Yes, on another farm, there is quite a bit of farmland nearby, and I can buy a small farm plane." He thought for a moment, then said. "Maybe I should also buy two helicopters. ”

The farm here is okay. But on the Hanova Farm side, if all three farms are bought, it will be time-consuming for him to drive around the farm for such a large farm.

"That's a good idea. Kate said with a shrug. "I heard that the new farm can be put into use directly. ”

"Yes. Link thought for a moment and said. "But I'm planning to open a canal. Whoever leads that seasonal river to the low-lying area. Also, if another farm were to be bought, I might consider building a small dam at the mouth of a canyon. ”

Kate heard him say that, and didn't inquire further. Their team is only better at planning, and when it comes to engineering, they really can't do it: "That's a big project." But don't you think it's hotter outside?"

Link said with a smile: "The temperature is indeed relatively high today. "It's the middle of July, and there is no wind today, so the temperature rises very quickly in the afternoon. "Maybe we can have some beer. Frozen. Of course, there are also juices. ”

After the two entered the villa, the air conditioner made the indoor temperature very suitable, and she didn't let Link say hello, she went to the refrigerator and took out two cans of blue ribbon and threw one of them to Link.

Link caught up and said, "I'm not fit to drink right now." "He's not completely healed.

Kate opened the beer can and took a sip and said, "It's not good to be a heavy drinker, but it's okay to drink a little." She also knew what injuries Link had. "I saw on the news that the suspect who hired the killer has been caught. ”

Link sat down on the couch and said, "Yes." Conclusive. ”

"Alright!" Kate sat down on the couch as if he didn't want to talk about it. "Tell me about your new farm. And your great plans. ”

Link smiled and said, "It's just an ordinary property purchase plan, not great." ”

Kate pursed her lips and smiled, brushed her loose hair to her ear, and said, "But that's a 50 million purchase." And it's a 48,000-acre ranch. ”

Link had to admit that there was nothing artificial in her casual movements, but there was a subtle flattery. And this is a young beautiful woman. He shook his head slightly, not knowing whether he wanted to throw some of the thoughts that came out of his head, or if he disagreed with her words: "You know, agriculture doesn't make much money. I bought that farm, and the more important purpose was to solidify the capital. ”

He looked her in the eye, smiled, and continued, "I didn't go to college, and I didn't have the skills of Gates. Let me do something big, I don't have that confidence. My money is all obtained by luck, it comes easily, and it is easy for one to go inadvertently. Investing in agriculture, the annual rate of return may be low, but those lines don't seem to me to belong to me yet. When these money are solidified and become my fixed assets, they will really become my money. ”

"You have a very clear understanding! I heard that you have two billion, and if you invest it all, even if the rate of return is only 1%, it is enough to make you live well. Kate teased. "I have to say that this is a very sound investment idea. But I heard that John Malone only owns more than a billion dollars of real estate now, maybe you can surpass him. ”

Link laughed and said, "Of course it can't be. I don't plan to put all my money into agriculture either. I'm a young man, and maybe I'll be watching a striptease tomorrow with a duffel bag of dollars. ”

"Wow, dollars for a duffel bag. A million dollars?" Kate said with a big sip of beer with a smile. "You're going to make history again. ”

"No, maybe 100 million. You forget, there are $10,000 gold coin rolls in the ground of Hans's farm. Maybe I can find a duffel bag for a hundred bundles. ”

"Yes, yes. You'll definitely find it. Kate laughed.

She smiled a little dissolutely, but what she saw in Link's eyes was really innocent.
