Chapter 63: Koizumi Mountain (Part II)

Semen smiled back and took out another contract from his briefcase, "So, my client has prepared two contracts for me, one with a price indication and one with a blank price column, which means that my client is still willing to make some concessions within a reasonable range." ”

With that, Simon handed the blank contract to Pei Pei.

After Pei Pei took it, she put it on the table casually, and she didn't look at the contract, but her eyes were firmly fixed on Saimen, and her divine sense was released, "Mr. Saimen, I don't think we have to go around in circles anymore, before you come, your client will definitely tell you about his psychological reserve price, and it's better for us to be straightforward!" Can you tell me about your final bottom line price? ”

"Eighteen million dollars." Semen blurted out and was shocked, grabbed the coffee cup in front of him and took a quick sip, damn it! How can you say the reserve price so quickly! The boss told me that I must see-saw for a while and then let go to 20 million dollars.

“no! no! no! I'm still not satisfied with the price! In fact, the only thing I fancy is the 800 acres of agricultural land around the villa, except for the value of this land, Xiaoquan Mountain itself is not very attractive, and I don't like hunting very much, so there is no need to have a private hunting ground! "That's weird! Pei Pei's words are just a negotiation routine, so that she will not reveal what she really wants.

"Based on the current average land price in Montana, an acre of agricultural land will never sell for more than $5,000, and those 800 acres of agricultural land are worth no more than $4 million at most! Combined with the resort and lake footprint, it doesn't add up to more than $6 million. So be it, five and a half million dollars! I only need the land and the villa under the mountain, and you can find a buyer in Xiaoquan Mountain. Pei Pei said with a smile.

"It's absolutely impossible! The villa is at the foot of Koizumi Mountain, and my client sued me that I could only sell it together! If you want to buy the land at the foot of the mountain and the cottage alone, we can't negotiate this deal. The lawyer replied strictly.

"But there are wolves in Koizumi Mountain! I'm a girl, and I'm most afraid of wolves! Pei Pei pretended to pat her chest with a frightened expression.

"Miss Li, when you become the master of Xiaoquan Mountain, you can agree with the residents of this town to encircle and suppress the wolves. I think they'll appreciate you! ”

"Then why does your client not agree to it and sell the land instead? Mr. Simon, there must be other reasons for this, forget it, I won't pursue these reasons, I can accept to buy it with Koizumen, who makes me still like such a vacation environment! However, I hope that this price will have to go down a little further. After all, the land on Xiaoquan Mountain is not agricultural land, and I have learned more about the current land prices in Montana before I came, and the price between agricultural land and mountain land is very different! ”

Speaking of this, Pei Pei shook the contract in front of her, smiled and continued: "Don't forget the 43 million acres of Bell Ranch, the seller's listing price is only $110 million!" And the overall land area of Koizumi Mountain is only about one-seventh of Bell Ranch, so please think about it and quote me again! ”

Seeing the embarrassed expression on the lawyer's face, Pei Pei pointed to the mobile phone he put on the table, and said: "I know that you have no right to decide this price, so let's do it, you can call your client now and tell him, the buyer hopes to be able to meet him in person, let him book a time to come over, if he can't come, I can go to him in person." ”

Under the hint of the county lord's mind, Mr. Simon, the lawyer, picked up the phone and walked aside, and after about ten minutes, Simon hung up the phone and sat back, telling Pei Pei that his boss was in New York at this time and could not come, and if Miss Li was not troublesome and sincere, he welcomed Miss Li to go to him for an interview in person.

Pei Pei sighed, this is the disadvantage of the lawyer's appearance, if it was the seller herself who was sitting in front of her at this time, she would have already signed the contract with the price in three or two. It's good now, I have to go to New York again, hum - let Aunt Ben fly back and forth all the way, and when I see that guy when the time comes, I have to cut off a lot of its price!

So, the indignant county lady had no choice but to take Sherlock, followed by the lawyer Saimen, and the three hurried to Bozeman Airport and bought three tickets to New York as soon as possible.

PS: In order to check the price of land in the United States, the author checked some current affairs news through Baidu, and found that John Malone, chairman of the American Free Media Group in 13 years, reportedly bought the 1,174 square kilometers (about 43 million acres) of Bell Ranch in northeastern New Mexico mentioned in the article for $60 million (the ranch was first listed in 2006 at a price of $110 million). So, the author quoted this news into this article.

The author calculated that if the transaction was made at the listing price at that time in 06, the transaction price of an acre of land would be about $2.56 (tsk, I really don't know if I don't check, I was shocked when I checked it!). Believe it or not, this is all real news found by Baidu).

The authors looked up the relevant figures published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for 14 years and found that the average price of agricultural land in the United States increased by 50% between 2009 and 2013.

The current time of this article has just progressed to 2006, and the author really can't find any information about the price of land in Montana in '06, but only found one Wall Street anecdote: at a land auction in Arlington in 2014, there was a piece of land about 98 acres, the seller asked about $1 million, and it was not sold, and a week later the land was sold for $8,800 per acre. In this way, it seems that the smaller the land in the United States, the higher the asking price, and the larger the area, the cheaper the transaction price.

Therefore, the author was confused by the information he found, so he had to rely on his imagination to split the land of Xiaoquan Mountain into two calculations, and the 800 acres of land at the foot of the mountain were based on the transaction price of 8800 per acre at the land auction held in Arlington in 14 years, and the time was rewind to the 06 years described in the article, and after deducting the factors of inflation and the impact of the financial crisis after 08 years, the selling price of agricultural land in Montana in 06 years was designed to be 5000 US dollars per acre according to the imagination. The land on Koizumi Mountain is a large mountainous area, and it is designed to be $2.5 per acre based on the listing price of Bell Ranch in '06. If there is a mistake with reality, please study the party and do not delve into it.
