Chapter 372: Receiving Big Toys

Originally, John Wilford only needed $10 million to pay off the bank arrears and the interest arrears. This is also the origin of the starting price at the auction. It's just that after he learned that Zhang Fan would participate in this auction, he greedily found a black market loan and sent a navy into the auction hall to try to slaughter Zhang Fan.

But now that the tide is turning, John Wilford will have to pay off all his debts by millions more.

After listening to John Wilford's account, Zhang Fan just smiled and did not speak. After thinking for a while, Zhang Fan suddenly asked, "You should still have some industry, right?"

"Huh?" John Wilford was slightly stunned, then nodded, "Yes, there are some industries. But at most, there are only a few million, which is not enough at all. ”

"Good. Zhang Fan nodded, "I want something, but I will only give you 10 million US dollars." If you want to sell it, sell it, and if you don't, I'll wait until you declare bankruptcy before buying it. ”

Zhang Fan laughed: "I think the price will definitely be cheaper at that time." ”

John Wilford was struck by lightning in an instant!

When he heard that Zhang Fan was willing to buy it, a smile just bloomed on his face. But Zhang Fan's next words sent him directly to hell. How can this be?!

If it's only 10 million, he won't even be able to pay off his debts. He had to sell all his possessions to smooth off his debts. The thought of being reduced to a pauper makes John Wilford shudder.

"Mr. Zhang!" John Wilford cried out with a crying voice, "this price is too low, please add a little more!"

At this time, John Wilford's heart was full of regret. If Zhang Fan had sold the blue and white porcelain by himself when he offered a price of 50 million at the auction before, he would have taken a large sum of money and taken a group of beautiful women to the sea on a yacht. Where is there such a panic now, praying for Zhang Fan here.

It's just that there is no regret medicine in this world. No matter how much he regretted it, there was nothing he could do now. Because the initiative is in Zhang Fan's hands at this time. The only thing John Wilford could do was to ask Zhang Fan to give him a little more with the most humble attitude.

However, this thing was originally a work of art that was handed down from China. It's something that has been robbed, how could Zhang Fan still offer a high price at such a time? If he didn't offer a lower price, he just didn't want John Wilford to jump off the wall in a hurry.

"I said it. Zhang Fan's expression remained unchanged, looking at the British gentleman in front of him with tears and snot flowing all over his face, "If you want to sell, you can sell, if you don't want to, please leave." I'm going to have breakfast, so don't delay my meal. ”

The situation is stronger than the man, and John Wilford understands this sentence very well. Because he's already experienced it himself.

Looking at Zhang Fan's ironic face, for a moment, John Wilford's heart even swelled up with the idea that Lao Tzu would be scattered in two, even if he was bankrupt and in prison, he would not let you take advantage of it.

It's just that this thought was only flashed in his mind and was dispelled by him.

The highest price offered by those who wanted to take advantage of him before was only two million. As for things like finding an auction house to auction. Not to mention that all kinds of arrears have reached the last moment, and he has no time to go to the auction company to operate. Just after offending Sotheby, the world's major auction houses will no longer accept his commission.

As for small and medium-sized auction houses, not to mention the danger, it will take a long time to collect money. What's more, now almost everyone knows what happened to him, and no one will make a high price at this time. are waiting for him to be forced to auction after he goes bankrupt.

In this case, John Wilford simply had no choice.

When Zhang Fan got up and walked to the door, the figure was about to disappear. John Wilford, who was held down by the security assistant, finally collapsed because he couldn't withstand the tremendous pressure. Crying and shouting, "I'm willing, I'm willing to sell, 10 million is 10 million!"

It sounds a little strange, like Zhang Fan is forcing XX, and then lowering the price to want XX.

The final result was that Zhang Fan got what he wanted. After all, John Wilford had no choice at this time, except to agree to Zhang Fan's request, he was left with the fate of going bankrupt and going to prison and being rectified.

Although the money given by Zhang Fan is not enough to pay off the debt, he can still barely solve his debt crisis if he sells his family property. It's just that in this way, John Wilford can only live as an ordinary person in the future. Not even a middle-class life.

But at least you can breathe the air freely and you don't have to pick up soap in the prison. That alone is enough.

Although Zhang Fan is very rich, it is impossible for him to pay for it himself because he sympathizes with this gambler. Not to mention that this guy's ancestor was a robber, and now he is suffering this kind of fate, which can be regarded as paying the price for his ancestor's banditry behavior.

Zhang Fan is not optimistic about John Wilford's future life. He knows very well that no gambler can really quit his gambling addiction no matter what kind of environment he is in.

Zhang Fan used to have a good classmate when he was in school, but later that classmate became addicted to gambling and soon couldn't get by, and he had to drop out of school. Later, the classmate cut off one of his fingers and said he wanted to quit. But when Zhang Fan went out to school away from his hometown, he heard that the classmate had another seizure, lost everything, couldn't find the money, and asked his parents for money but didn't arrive, and actually smashed his home.

That classmate was also very good at the beginning, which is a pity.

As a result, Zhang Fan believes that John Wilford will not only be unable to quit his gambling addiction, but will also deepen it. At that time, he would not have another piece of blue and white porcelain to save his life. Either he was killed by gambling or he was sleeping on the street because he was bankrupt. As for borrowing money or something, there is no such thing as borrowing money because of favors in the Western world. Banks and finance companies will only lend money if you have sufficient collateral. If you don't, you won't be able to get in.

As for John Wilford's poor future, Zhang Fan has no interest in paying attention at all. After the things were in hand and all the formalities and documents were completed, Zhang Fan completely forgot about this stranger.

Zhang Fan left London alone, and Lin Yueying will stay in London to participate in London Fashion Week. However, it is obvious that there will be no vacancies around Zhang Fan at this time. When he came to the Boeing delivery airport, Li Ruhui had already been waiting here for a long time.

"That little lover of yours didn't come with you?" Li Ruhui's first words after seeing Zhang Fan were jealous jokes. Although I have acquiesced to this kind of thing in my heart, a woman's heart has always been very small. I always can't help but want to vent my frustration. For this kind of thing, Zhang Fan has already dealt with it very skillfully.

"Gifts. Zhang Fan directly changed the topic, took out a Louis Vuitton limited edition new women's handbag and handed it over, "I bought it just for you." ”

What Zhang Fan said is just to listen to it. This handbag was sent to the butler to buy, and there was more than one. It's just that it's given to different people with different styles and brands.

Louis Vuitton handbag for Li Ruhui, silk scarf for Lin Yueying Chanel, sunglasses for Lin Yueqing and so on. No matter who is around, there will be a way to cope. Of course, the gifts given by Zhang Fan are all limited editions, not those big road goods. He's not going to be short of that money.

"Are you ready?" Zhang Fan smiled and looked at the huge plane on the runway of the airport not far away, very satisfied.

The private jet that Zhang Fan ordered at Boeing was finally delivered. After several revisions to the design and a few additional payments, the cost of this four-engine large intercontinental airliner exceeded 300 million US dollars!

And this is still not counting the price of the interior decoration, if the money for the interior decoration is also included, Zhang Fan has already paid more than 400 million US dollars for this aircraft. That's a lot of money.

After the plane is bought, it still needs constant maintenance, it also needs to maintain the crew, it is necessary to apply for the opening of air routes, and it is necessary to rent the tarmac or something. As for the money for jet fuel, it is already a small amount of money. It's normal to fly casually, and spend tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Later maintenance or something still has to find Boeing to do, after all, it is to buy their plane. Maintenance is also a significant expense.

After Zhang Fan spent so much money at Boeing, Boeing's gift to him was nothing more than filling the bar on the plane with drinks. Although they are all good wines, they are much lighter than the value of airplanes.

But Boeing has a big business, and it's basically a monopoly in the industry. Even a super-rich man like Zhang Fan is just treated as an ordinary guest. After all, the only one in the world who can compete with him is Airbus. Even the oil tycoons are just ordinary guests in Boeing's eyes.

Hundreds of millions of dollars worth of private jets were delivered, and Boeing held a delivery ceremony for Zhang Fan. Originally, they also wanted to hold a press conference to borrow Zhang Fan's fame. However, Zhang Fan directly refused. There is no need to make this kind of thing all over the world.

In fact, before the plane is delivered, all other documents and even the route apron and so on are already prepared. Today is just a ceremony, just board the plane and drive away.

After getting on the plane, Li Ruhui looked at Zhang Fan curiously and asked James to put a beautiful porcelain in a conspicuous position. Judging by James's cautious movements, this thing is certainly not cheap.

Zhang Fan quickly solved her puzzles: "I bought it in London, 10 million dollars." ”

Li Ruhui immediately glared at Zhang Fan, spending so much money to buy a porcelain? Even if you have money, you can't waste it like this. It's just too much!

By the time Zhang Fan told her that he had shouted out the price of $50 million at the auction, Li Ruhui already had the urge to hit someone.
