Zhu Tong showed three points of confusion, but began to sneer in his heart.

Wilson was not interested in the stake in Fuhua Shipbuilding, and she did not share the grand prospect of Zhu Tong using Fuhua Shipbuilding.

However, she had to use the shares for some purpose, or else there would be no meeting.

"I don't understand what you mean, doesn't the future of Fuhua Shipbuilding have nothing to do with you?" Zhu Tong said tentatively.

"Fuhua Shipbuilding is your business, Mr. Matsui's business, not mine. All I care about is when the shares I bought from Mr. Lehman for $35 million will be realized? Where to monetize? How much profit will it probably bring me? That's what I'm concerned about right now. ”

"Those are three questions, and to be honest, I can only answer the first two right now." Zhu Tong met Mrs. Wilson's cold gaze and said steadily; "All the negotiations of Fuhua Shipbuilding will have a final result in May, and it will take one month to report to the relevant departments for filing and approval. If all goes well, in July, Fuhua Shipbuilding will apply for listing on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Your shares can be transferred at the quoted price or liquidated on the stock market. ”

"What about time? I need an exact time. ”

"I'm sorry, I can't guarantee anything. Many people have great expectations for Fuhua Shipbuilding, and they also hope that Fuhua Shipbuilding can enter the construction stage as soon as possible. All I can say is that time won't drag on for too long. ”

Mrs. Wilson rubbed the diamond ring on her middle finger, was silent for a moment, and then suddenly became happy.

"Mr. Lehman paid $20 million when he got the shares, and he sold them to me for $35 million."

At this point, Mrs. Wilson paused and looked at Zhu Tong with a meaningful gaze.

Zhu Tong didn't speak, but he opened a pool of hot springs in his heart. He knew that Mrs. Wilson was going to have a showdown next.

"I don't know Smith. Mr. Watchenberg was not interested in getting to know him. Mr. Carr, however, has always been a friend of mine, and every spring he and his wife come to Edinburgh for my Jockey Club. Mrs. Carr and I have maintained a very close friendship for thirty years. Mrs. Wilson began to introduce the background.

"However, we have not had any business dealings with each other." Mrs. Wilson said with a smile when she saw that Zhu Tong did not show the nervousness she should have; "Mrs. Carr and I share a common hobby, and she has enough taste to enjoy the pleasures of elegant horse racing."

Zhu Tong knew that he should say something, but Mrs. Wilson was talking about a topic that was completely foreign to him, and he really couldn't find a suitable starting point. Fortunately, he knows a lot of ways to talk nonsense.

"It's rare to have a confidant in life. Madame, I hope that your friendship will never be tainted by money. ”

"You're so understanding, no wonder Yukimi is fascinated by you." Mrs. Wilson let out a few coquettish laughs, and Zhu Tong listened to them with a creepy sound.

Sure enough, the next words are not so glamorous. Mrs. Wilson put together a coquettish smile and said, "You guessed right, our friendship is being tested. Mr. Carr suggested that I transfer the shares of United Vessels to him, and he had already made an offer of $50 million. Mr. Lehman made fifteen million from me, and I was able to make fifteen million from Carl. If it weren't for Yukimi, I think it would be a perfect investment. Mr. Li, do you think I could get a better return from the stock market in Shanghai? ”

"Surely, since Mr. Karl can make you fifteen million, he must be able to make fifteen million, or more." Zhu Tong had a smile on his face.

Mrs. Wilson's hole cards have been turned over halfway, and the next step is to negotiate the conditions. By this time, useless negative emotions such as gains and losses had already been thrown out of the clouds by Zhu Tong. Besides, Zhu Tong knew that Mrs. Wilson was trying her best to create an atmosphere.

"However, I am an old woman, and my days are numbered, and I am more concerned with the immediate interests than in the near future. No one knows what's going to happen tomorrow, does they? The future belongs to you young people. ”

"Mrs. Wilson, you're a young man, too." Zhu Tong said very seriously. "Fuhua Shipbuilding is a promising enterprise, and these investments will definitely bring you good returns."

"Young man, don't try to convince me with such reasons. Miss Yukimi originally disagreed with Matsui Heishi leaving the family with Orton's company because she was afraid that she would lose your friendship. But I told her that cash was more important than any invisible benefit. If she wants to help you, she has a better option. That's why it's happening now. ”

Mrs. Wilson shook her head slightly, and there was contempt in her eyes: "In my eyes, the vitality of any business except banks is limited. Mr. Li, if you have carefully studied modern history, you should be able to notice a fact. Nearly 300 years have passed since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, and there are only a handful of industrial companies in the world that can survive more than 100 years. What is Vitality? It's cash. The only exceptions are banks, as they are a source of vitality. So, it's not unusual for a 100-year-old bank to have it. Because in this field, competition is under control, and risk is under control. Ms. Yukimi accepted my suggestion, and the Iike Foundation is gradually selling all of its properties to concentrate on Sakura Bank and Sakura Insurance Company. ”

Zhu Tong thought that he did not have the strength to communicate with Mrs. Wilson on an equal footing, at least what she said just now, he had never thought of it. He bowed his head slightly and said, "Madam, you are wiser than God. ”

"Thanks, I know it's a compliment. God doesn't care how he earns money, He only spends money. Mr. Lee, let's go back to reality. What should I do? You have been refusing to negotiate with them, so this investment is very risky, Carr said. Moreover, the conditions you put forward are unfair to the United Vessels. I didn't want to risk it, and I didn't interfere with you. In the current situation, some friends think that now is the best time to harvest, and I should hurry up and sell these shares to Carl. ”

"It's not my fault, it's that some people are too greedy." Zhu Tong defended himself for the first time.

The reality is very helpless, although Mrs. Wilson only holds 8% of the shares of United Ship, in the current situation it is the most critical 8%. If Carl and Smith get that eight percent, the combined ship will be back in their hands.

"There's no one who isn't greedy, and I understand what they think." Mrs. Wilson was a little dissatisfied; "Mr. Lehman and I are both shareholders of the Forest Foundation, and I donated a million dollars to the Foundation to get those shares. I can't reproach Mr. Lehman for being greedy, because that's the rule. I'm not an emotionless old woman, and I've always been very tolerant of young people. You now have three options, would you like to hear them? ”

"If you think fit." Zhu Tong nodded; "I believe that you are not only a tolerant person, but also a sensitive heart."

"Listen to me, and you'll know how sensitive I am." Mrs. Wilson began to rub the diamond ring again; "First of all, the first choice is, of course, the least satisfying to you, but if I don't have a choice, I'll have to earn Mr. Carr's fifteen million. The second option is a bit cruel to you, and if you can raise $50 million in a week, I can consider transferring them to you. I think that since you are so confident in the future of Fuhua Shipbuilding, you should be eager to get them. ”

Although Zhu Tong was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by this suggestion. He had no doubt that Mrs. Wilson had asked to meet with her at this critical time in order to carry out this blackmail. It was true that Carl wanted to buy her shares, but it would never be $50 million.

"And the third? I want to have one more option. Zhu Tong was a little nervous, he wanted to see the real hole cards, hoping it wouldn't be too bad.

"If you choose the last path, I'll lose a lot." Mrs. Wilson pretended to be heartbroken, and said with a bitter face: "Yukimi is my baby, you may not know, I was a professional jockey when I was young, and because of an unfortunate accident, it is impossible to have my own children in this life." So, I can accept the condition that if Mr. Lee is engaged to Miss Xuemei, the profit portion of these shares will be given to you and Miss Xuemei as a gift, and thirty-five million dollars will be sold to you, or your friend. ”

"Oh." Zhu Tong let out an irrepressible shock in his throat.

Mrs. Wilson looked at Zhu Tong proudly, admiring the dramatic effect she had created: "Young man, you don't know how lucky you are. I think it only takes a simple engagement ceremony to make you the happiest man in the world. May is the most beautiful season of the year, and I hope to be in Edinburgh and introduce two happy young people to my friends. ”

Although Zhu Tong was mentally prepared, he was still in a dilemma. At this moment, Ye Er's pure face suddenly appeared in front of him, and a faint layer of loss floated and drowned him.

"I need to think about it, tomorrow morning, still here, and I'll tell you my options."

"Very good, I will be staying in Japan for three days. You can see me anytime you have three days. But young man, you can't be too greedy. I can't give you even a minute more than these three days. ”

With a kind smile, Mrs. Wilson watched Zhu Tong walk out of Fenglu.

Yukimi Iike walked in quietly.

"Boy, come here."

"Godmother, I don't think it's fair for him to do this." Yukimi Iike snuggled up to Mrs. Wilson and pursed her lips.

"Isn't that what you're hoping for? Child, he is likely to be a descendant of the Lan family, such a background is worthy of my baby. ”

"But I don't care what his last name is. You may have hurt his self-esteem, but he was always proud. ”

Mrs. Wilson doesn't care whether she is proud or not, in her opinion, pride also depends on how many temptations she faces. She said confidently, "Do you remember Mrs. Lan?" She has been living in China since last spring. I can still remember the way Mrs. Lan looked at Mr. Li when he was injured. Yes! Only mothers look at their children when they see them suffering, and it seems that something strange has happened between them. Yukimi, he is a stock with extraordinary potential, catch him, you can bring the most benefits to the family. ”

"yes, I'm weird too. Why did Madame Lan wait for him to fall asleep? Madame, they are all very clever doctors; This is no coincidence. ”

Yukimi Iike also began to recall that in front of the two shrewd women, all the details were worth playing.

The strong strength of the Lan family, in that world, no one dares to ignore the existence.

Yukimi Iike suddenly woke up from her dream, and when she thought of another possibility, her face instantly turned extremely pale.

"Godmother, I'm afraid, he won't want me."
