An Feng was not unprepared, he did his homework before going to the meeting, and consulted professionals about the situation of the two cruise ships, in the case of the Sapphire, with a displacement of 135,000 tons, it has been used for less than ten years, it is running well, and the main luxury is beautifully decorated, and it is normal for George to offer 700 million.

But now the world is different, businessmen are profit-seeking, and the opponent has seen that the Green family is in financial crisis and desperately needs money, and the value of this ship is difficult to exceed 700 million in any case. An Feng simply cut off 100 million, the psychological price is 650 million, and the rest depends on how to talk about it.

He believes that his price is still very humane compared to other people's downfalls.

Assistant Jim knew that this was his first performance after becoming a regular, and it was about his future and salary, so he took out 120,000 points of professionalism to negotiate with the other party.

An Feng, who had nothing to do, went to swing a few strokes with George.

Not to mention, a hole as big as a tree pit, one shot into the hole, the master level is comparable to Tiger. Woods...... The laughter of the two and the onlookers was also heard far away.

After another swing, the mobile phone rang, and An Feng took off his gloves to listen to Joanna's call.

"Honey, I'm at the stadium gate, where are you?" Joanna said in a soft voice.

An Feng looked around and showed her the way: "I'm in front of the door, you go straight along the road, and after you see a lake, there is a place where there is a group of people." ”

Soon, a body-in-white, carbon-black wheeled Lamborghini Aventador could not hide its low-key drive, it was a convertible model, unlike the open-top Huracan that An Feng bought in London, the "Big Bull" was the main model, equipped with a V12 engine, and equipped with the iconic "scissor door".

The car ...... In fact, when I was shopping the day before yesterday, An Feng, who was carrying a shopping bag and couldn't walk on his legs, bought it.

The lady drove this powerful convertible. is also neat, she parked the car on the side of the road in a chic manner, and in everyone's attention, she pushed up the car door and got out of the car, wearing an elegant black skirt like a celebrity who was ready to participate in a drinking party, and came to them with a smile on her face.

The beauty of the fragrant car is very eye-catching. Many men have the idea of asking for a number.

Joanna stepped forward and kissed An Feng on the cheek, let him hold his waist intimately, and came to appear in front of everyone. Of course, this is also a direct manifestation of the declaration of a woman's right to belong - who made all the men present have their eyes fixed on her breasts and exposed white backs.

George stepped forward to shake her hand and complimented, "Very welcome, beautiful lady!" Your presence has made this place even more elegant! ”

"Thank you." Joanna smiled very decently, whether it was her external appearance or her inner temperament, she gave An Feng a lot of face.

Joanna looked at a big pit in front of her and asked curiously, "Honey." What are you doing here? ”

Everyone suddenly laughed, and An Feng was happy: "We...... It's about planting trees. ”

"Planting trees?" Joanna looked around, such an empty golf course, with a tree planted in the center?

George also said, "Yes, ma'am, we are indeed planting trees. ”

Joanna shook her head: "It must not be like this." ”

Just when everyone wanted to continue teasing the beauty, George's assistant came over: "Mr. Green, everyone suggests going to the scene to see the cruise." ”

George looked at An Feng. He nodded: "No problem, I just want to check it out!" ”

Joanna walks towards Lamborghini. But she didn't see An Feng take the initiative to go up, but she pulled up the car door and sat in the driver's seat by herself, while An Feng went around to the passenger seat and sat in. She was a little bit of a woman who didn't let her eyebrows go, and started the sports car. Make a U-turn to keep up with a couple of battery cars.

An Feng joked: "It feels good to take your man for a ride, right?" ”

"Of course, like women in the age of freedom!" Joanna nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, women in the era of freedom......" An Feng smiled and took out a pair of sunglasses from her bag, "Help you put them on." sun protection, and even cooler! ”

"That's sweet!" She turned her head and kissed him.

……

Joanna drove the convoy through the city to the dock by the sea.

On the dock used by the Green family, a cruise ship that was so large that you had to raise your head to see the whole picture was quietly docked, the Sapphire had little to do with blue, the hull was white, and only the bow had the name "Sapphire" printed in blue letters.

It had been out of service for a long time, with only a few security guards on board, and it took a while to wait for boarding. It's too big to be able to step on it like a small boat, so you need to use a boarding bridge to connect to the hull and let guests walk into the body of this massive steel monster like a boarding bridge.

While waiting, George introduced to them: "This ship is 310 meters long, with a displacement of 135,226 tons, and a height of 61 meters above the waterline, which is equivalent to a 20-story residential building. ”

An Feng looked up, the height of the 20-story building, from the outside, each suite has a small balcony, if it weren't for its huge body floating on the water, and the number of balconies is too large, I am afraid it is easy to be mistaken for a luxury apartment building on land...... First of all, the appearance is a plus.

He likes this kind of hunk stuff.

Manufactured after the 21st century, the Sapphire is designed to be more modern, whether it is electrical equipment or other configurations, in addition to a number of ordinary elevators, there are also two indoor sightseeing elevators, which can enjoy the special attractions of the 15th deck in the cabin, which is very convenient.

But more than 1,500 rooms can not be visited in a few days, pick a few representative, it is positioned luxury, so there is a wide variety of luxury suites. After looking at the rooms, followed by the ship's living and entertainment facilities, the 12th deck of the bow is opened all the way, and you can see the sky clearly when you look up, surrounded by a variety of restaurants, cafes and sales points of various brands, which is as complete as land.

Stepping on the reddish-brown carpet, walking in the glittering casino, or strolling in the cigar club, there is a strong sense of luxury, and the cruise ship also uses Swarovski top crystal to create a welcome staircase, which is said to cost $300,000 per step, and walking on it is like a dream.

After the tour, they took a seat at the indoor plant viewing area on the top floor.

An Feng said: "The decoration looks very good, but the specific operation data of the boat, the operation of the machine. I also need someone to test this. ”

Old George, that is, George's father, nodded: "That's for sure, issue an authoritative report, so that we can both have peace of mind." ”

An Feng smiled and said: "It's good, but in terms of price, we still have a little disagreement." ”

Old George sighed: "Okay. Do you know that our family is in urgent need of money now, so we will each make a step forward and make a deal of 620 million, how about it? ”

Jim said beside him: "Up front they hold on to 650 million. ”

An Feng clasped his fingers on the table and thought for a moment, then nodded: "If the test proves that the ship is in good condition, I can accept this price." ”

The Green family's face was overjoyed, and they almost smiled, although it was a bit low, but they were all ready to sell it at a lower price in exchange for funds. The deal was much better than the worst-case scenario, and the negotiation process kept saying that it was a loss.

Although the price can be pressed a little more, Anfeng doesn't have much time, anyway, it's a difference of tens of millions, if you waste your vacation on negotiations all day, I'm sorry for the dollar bills in your pocket...... But in terms of market conditions, this price is very affordable.

There are just a few follow-up issues: manpower. In its heyday, there were 1,600 employees on board. After the Greene family suffered a financial crisis, these people were all but disbanded. Now if Neptune Shipping wants to take over, it will have to spend time hiring.

George knew this, too, and gave him a suggestion: "If you can't find a crew yet, I can recommend you the original crew." ”

"Including the captain and waiter?" An Feng asked.

George shook his head: "Not so much, only the captain and some of his subordinates, all kinds of waiters and security personnel on the ship need to be re-recruited." If you want to be fast, I can also recommend people who are more skilled and can adapt to life on the ship faster. ”

An Feng said: "I would like to use some of the original employees. ”

The reason is naturally proficiency, and the old employees know the cruise ship well. Add some new employees and lead each other to get familiar with the work faster. You must know that even if this cruise ship is not used, such a big guy parked in the dock is like burning money, and the cost is at least 100,000 a day.

George thought for a moment and said, "I'll go back and arrange for someone to contact the original crew, and try to get those managers, waiter foremen, and the like back." ”

An Feng said: "Thank you, this saves me a lot of things!" ”

George smiled: "It's okay, you also did us a big favor at a critical moment." ”

……

An Feng held a meeting at the Ocean Shipping Company.

At present, there are very few employees, in fact, the shipping company does not have many employees on land, and most of them stay on the ship. He discussed recruitment with several employees who hadn't done anything for days, and as a company, there was definitely a need for a competent supervisor, as well as a supervisor.

The director wasn't found, but the overseer was there, and Jim was clear.

Jim flipped through the information and introduced: "The Sapphire used to take a route around the Eastern Caribbean, starting from the port of Miami, to St. Martin, St. Tom, to Nassau, and finally back to Miami, which lasted 15 days, and they also took 12 days of rapid travel. ”

An Feng didn't have any good ideas, so he said, "Let's still follow this route." Also, is St. Toms close to St. Kitts and Nevis? ”

An employee at the scene said: "St. Toms is in the U.S. Virgin Islands, about 152 nautical miles from St. Kitts and Nevis, a half-day voyage. ”

"Not bad!" An Feng nodded. In fact, the Eastern Caribbean is an island country, the natural scenery is very good, St. Kitts Island is not bad, he has been here a few times, have seen the dock has cruise ships docked, so the tourism industry is very promising, in addition to his hope to develop the local area, there is also a sense of contribution.

After all, the richest, most philanthropic and most popular diplomat in the Federation has to make a contribution by opening up tourist routes, building resorts in the area, or having the parliament discuss it, demarcating an area for a casino or something, so that the passengers who land can have a good time.
