Zeng Cheng smiled but did not answer. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info These so-called top ten American consortia have a very glorious history when they made their fortunes, and it can be said that some of them are very bloody, so Zeng Cheng looks down on these American consortia. It's like the Morgan consortium, although it started in the banking industry and has been engaged in the banking industry now, they are also one of the masterminds behind the financial turmoil in Southeast Asia.

The people who understand the financial loopholes in Southeast Asia are naturally these predecessors who provide a reference model for their financial industry, so the American consortiums are the direct culprits that caused the financial turmoil in Southeast Asia, and Soros and others are just scapegoats.

After a while, Lawrence Wood and others came over, and Fan Yanhong, accompanied by several leaders of the municipal government office, met with them.

Lawrence Wood quickly shifted the subject to the acquisition of Yudu Department Store.

Fan Yanhong glanced at Zeng Cheng, and then said to him: "Well, Mr. Zeng of Xianyuan Group is also here today, you can directly negotiate with him to see if he is willing to transfer the equity of Yudu Department Store." ”

Lawrence Wood glanced at Zeng Cheng and was very surprised, he had already inquired about the Xianyuan Group, and knew that this was a powerful large group, and its boss was said to be the richest man in China.

So Lawrence Wood said to Zeng Cheng: "I didn't expect Zeng to be so young, it's a blessing." ”

"Well, Mr. Wood isn't very old." Zeng Cheng nodded and said expressionlessly.

Although he didn't have any special thoughts about Su Yuemei, Zeng Cheng was very unhappy in his heart when he knew that the other party was actually pursuing Su Yuemei and made a big move like sending 999 red roses.

Coupled with the fact that this kid is now coveting the shares of Yudu Department Store that he finally got in his hands, Zeng Cheng has even less good feelings for this foreign devil.

Lawrence Wood didn't know why Zeng Cheng was so unfriendly to him, but Zeng Cheng's attitude, he also felt that he had nothing to talk about with Zeng Cheng, so he said straight to the point: "How much does Zeng always need to be willing to transfer the equity of Yudu Department Store?" ”

"$500 million, 30 percent equity." Zeng Cheng replied calmly.

"How is this possible?! Such a supermarket chain, even if you buy it all, it won't cost 500 million US dollars! Lawrence Wood jumped to his feet and said loudly. 500 million US dollars, that's all his belongings, Zeng Cheng is the rhythm that wants to hollow him out all at once.

Besides, in the case of Yudu Department Store, it is not worth the price at all. Lawrence Wood also inquired about the details of Yudu Department Store, and heard that the company's turnover last year was less than 8 billion soft sister coins, the profit was just over 100 million, and the total assets were only 2 billion soft girl coins. If all of them are acquired, it will only be about $300 million. Now Zeng Cheng actually asked him to buy 30% of the shares of Yudu Department Store for 500 million US dollars, which is where he is a fool.

"If you're willing to transfer all your shares, we can pay $100 million." Lawrence Wood thought for a moment and said to Zeng Cheng, "This is a very high price. As far as I know, in other provinces, $100 million can buy more than a dozen large supermarkets. ”

Zeng Cheng said very politely: "Are you mistaken! Mr. Wood, $100 million may be able to buy a supermarket somewhere else, but with me, don't think about it. For me, the dollar is the least valuable thing, and if the dollar can solve the problem, I can take a billion dollars at any time, do you think that a hundred million dollars is a lot? ”

"How is this possible, who will have that much liquidity?!" Lawrence Wood immediately retorted, "Even Bill Gates is not so easy to come up with a billion dollars in cash." ”

Zeng Cheng smiled: "Believe it or not, you can ask Edward of Roche, he still owes me more than a billion dollars." ”

How could Lawrence Wood believe such a statement, nor did he believe that the American Roche family would borrow money from such a young Chinese, so he replied: "I don't believe it, I also know Mr. Edward of Roche, how could he borrow so much cash from one person?" ”

Zeng Cheng spread his hands and said helplessly: "If you don't believe it, there is no way, you didn't think you would fail on the Korean battlefield." ”

"You're insulting the intelligence of an American, you're insulting not only my intelligence, but my intelligence!" Lawrence Wood was so disgusted by Zeng Cheng's smile and expression that he jumped up on the spot and pointed out.

Zeng Cheng smiled: "Okay, let's make a bet." If Edward admits to borrowing a billion dollars from me, then you lose, and if there is no such thing, then I lose. ”

Lawrence Wood didn't believe that Zeng Cheng had lent Edward so much money, and immediately agreed: "Okay! What is the stake? ”

"The bet is only 500 million US dollars, and you can't pay it anyway." Zeng Cheng replied with some disdain.

"$500 million is $500 million! Let's make a note first, and now confirm whether this thing is true or not! Lawrence Wood also competed with Zeng Cheng, and said at the moment.

Fan Yanhong coughed and said, "It's not good to gamble. ”

"This is a matter between two businessmen, please don't ask Mayor Fan." Lawrence Wood replied angrily, "In our America, gambling is not illegal. ”

"Then let it be, I won't speak." As soon as Fan Yanhong heard this, he didn't bother to care about this American, anyway, he was willing to lose, who could stop him?

When the two of them started to act, Lawrence Wood's total net worth was 500 million US dollars, and these assets were basically stocks of various companies in his Chicago consortium, or real estate in various parts of the United States, and so on, he naturally couldn't mobilize so much cash at once, so he opened a property transfer agreement.

Zeng Cheng is different, he wrote a check from UBS, a full 500 million US dollars, which can be cashed immediately and placed on the table.

"You can have someone check it first." Zeng Cheng proposed.

Lawrence Wood nodded, and immediately made a phone call to verify the authenticity of the cash check, and then said with some admiration: "Why gamble when you have so much money?" I know Mr. Edward, and the relationship is very good, our consortium has a lot of cooperation with Roche, I have never heard him say about borrowing money from Chinese, you can't lie to me this time. ”

"Then you can call to verify, but you need to explain that I am here, otherwise he will not tell the truth." Zeng Cheng smiled slightly.

Lawrence Wood naturally did not believe in this evil, and immediately dialed Edward Rothschild's personal phone, and after a few words of greeting, he immediately asked: "Did you borrow a billion dollars from a Chinese?" ”

Edward immediately denied it: "How is it possible, are you crazy? Where is this kind of thing?! ”

Lawrence Wood immediately said to Zeng Cheng: "Hear it! Edward said there was no such thing! ”

Zeng Cheng took the phone with a smile, and then said to Edward: "Dear apprentice, I heard that you don't plan to pay me back?" ”

Edward fell silent for a moment, and then asked, "Are you really a master?" How did you end up with that kid from the Wood family? ”

"I'm betting with Mr. Wood that he doesn't believe you borrowed a billion dollars from me, and you need to confirm this with him personally." Zeng Cheng replied.

"But master, I really didn't ask you to borrow money!" Edward said with a wry smile.

Zeng Cheng said with a smile: "In this way, I originally planned to teach you the next stage of kung fu, but it seems that there is no need." ”

Edward was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Teach me the next stage of kung fu?" ”

"yes." Zeng Cheng nodded, "However, it seems that you don't need to study anymore." ”

Eduardo's smart man immediately came to his senses and said to Zeng Cheng: "No, master, I want to learn the next stage of kung fu." ”

Zeng Cheng smiled: "Then you know what to say?" ”

"Okay, you give him the phone." Edward agreed.

Zeng Cheng returned the phone to Lawrence Wood.

Previously, Zeng Cheng spoke to Edward Rothschild in Chinese, but Lawrence did not understand it, and did not know what Zeng Cheng said to Edward. However, when he took the phone and exchanged a few words with Edward, he immediately felt bad.

"Oh my God!" I heard Lawrence Wood scream, and suddenly his eyes rolled and he fainted.

"This is going to be sent to the hospital quickly......" Fan Yanhong was shocked when he saw it, if this foreign devil died here, it would definitely cause international disputes.

Zeng Cheng walked over unhurriedly, reached out and pinched Lawrence's midriff, and then said: "Mr. Wood, it's not okay to pretend to be dead and not admit it, Americans need to be willing to gamble and lose." Did you throw in the towel? ”

"My money!!" Lawrence Wood let out a scream, then fainted again.

Zeng Cheng put away Lawrence Wood's property transfer agreement, and then said to his subordinates sympathetically: "It's a pity, but you don't have to worry, I will help you book a ticket back to China, and you can't swim back with your bare butts." ”

Lawrence Wood's subordinates all looked at each other, never thinking that a moment ago, he was a big man worth 500 million dollars, and at this moment he would become a penniless pauper, and this kind of speed of defeat is also one of the best in the world.
