Chapter 419 Former Owner·The Most Perfect Swordsman of the Year
Early the next morning.
[Tourwell Winery] General Manager Louis got up early, drove to the winery for work, and then went straight to the wine cellar.
The new owner requested that the 2017 and 2018 vintage red wines worth 4 million euros be destroyed due to pesticide residue problems in the wine cellar.
He released the news and was interviewed by the media, but there were also businessmen who came to discuss acquisitions. In several waves, the bids were not low, and some offered as much as 1 million euros. If these wines are sent to the SGS pesticide residue testing agency, they will be qualified. Therefore, some wine merchants want to buy the original liquid of wine directly back to China, then repackage it domestically and sell it under different brands.
Louis was confused.
A black Maybach parked in front of the winery.
Louis saw two people standing in front of the Maybach, one a yellow-skinned Chinese youth and the other a white man.
Huaxia Youth is also a wine merchant. I communicated with him on the phone yesterday and the other party offered 1.2 million euros to buy all the red wines from these two years.
Louis thought about it, and the temptation of 1.2 million euros was indeed not small.
If it is done quietly, it will be destroyed on the surface, but actually sold secretly to a wine merchant, and 1.2 million euros can be pocketed.
But the new owner sent a winery supervisor, that is, Marion, and to do this, Marion needed to be together.
Therefore, Louis also notified Marion to come.
The two negotiated with the wine merchant, and the other party increased the price to 1.3 million euros.
"I disagree. The trust Mr. Chen has given us cannot be used to do this kind of thing." Marion said flatly after thinking about it.
Louis was also relieved and said: "Actually, I don't agree with it either. Now that we have reached an agreement, we will reject all wine merchants."
The two of them discussed it and expressed their rejection to the Chinese young man.
"Where's your boss? You two white-skinned guys don't look like you're in charge. Call your boss. It's a waste for him to destroy the wine. He might as well sell it at a low price. It's not harmful to the human body anyway." The young man said, and then to The translator on the side said, "Translate."
"Our boss has already said that he will not sell it, but will destroy it. I'm sorry." Marion said.
at the same time.
In Bordeaux, the Four Seasons Hotel George V.
Chen Chuan met Teng Qingqing in the breakfast area.
She seemed to have just woken up. She just washed up and didn't put on makeup, but she looked good without makeup. She smiled and asked, "Did you sleep by yourself last night?"
"yes."
"Didn't you find that little girl from Singapore?" Teng Qingqing asked.
"No, but I won't lie to you. She sent a video and chatted with her for a while," Chen Chuan said.
"Oh, did you chat for a while or watch for a while?" Teng Qingqing asked again.
Chen Chuan felt confused. He must have watched the video while chatting. What was there to ask?
Chen Chuan felt that there was no need for Teng Qingqing to always be jealous of the little girls. Her physical condition was no worse than those of the little girls who were ten years younger than her. She is not a pure home girl, she also likes morning jogging, cycling, tennis and other sports.
The worst thing is, to say the least, if you have extra [Shouyuan Fruit] in the future, you can give it to her. According to the theory of relativity, wouldn’t it make her 20 years old if she eats it?
The two finished breakfast together.
Then he strolled downstairs and Chen Chuan bought Teng Qingqing a cup of coffee.
"Ding, [Bond·Billion-Level Consumption Rebate Card] is triggered. The host spends 6 euros for the target and gets a double rebate of 12 euros, which has been transferred to the host's bank card."
Chen Chuan understood that it was indeed Teng Qingqing.
Teng Qingqing was going back to her room to put on makeup. Before leaving, she wrote four numbers on Chen Chuan's palm and winked.
Looking at her walking back, Chen Chuan thought for a moment. The four numbers were: 1, 3, 1, 4.
What does it mean? Is it a hint that he wants to be with him for the rest of his life?
I didn’t expect this woman to be quite romantic.
On the other side, Teng Qingqing returned to the room, took another shower, and then sprinkled a little Chanel Coco Mademoiselle black perfume, commonly known as Black Coco. This perfume is not cheap, 100ml costs 1950 yuan. The top notes are grapefruit and bergamot, the middle notes are rose, narcissus, jasmine, etc. The base notes are lingering and intoxicating.
She wrapped herself in a bath towel, then took out the red wine from the refrigerator, drank a little, and waited patiently.
During the waiting process, my heartbeat gradually accelerated, and I couldn't help but recall the rainy night in the mountains. That was the first time she felt... like this.
the other side.
Chen Chuan confirmed that the person he was bound to was Teng Qingqing, and was thinking about how to spend the 100 million on her.
Last night, I heard Mr. Teng Haishan murmuring that if he wanted to acquire [Rose Family Winery], he would need a total of 13 million euros, of which the Teng family would contribute 7 million euros and the Dong Bo family would contribute 6 million euros.
Chen Chuan did the math and found that the 13 million was 100,987,900 yuan according to the exchange rate.
One million more than 100 million.
In other words, if you buy [Rose Family Winery] for Teng Qingqing, you can put 1 million yuan on it, but you can get a double rebate of 200 million yuan.
It’s a guaranteed profit without losing money. It’s just a way to spend 100 million. Is there any other choice?
Then I thought about how Teng Qingqing said yesterday that she was like a dog in the Teng family.
So, if she has a 13 million euro winery in her name, then she will have the ability to live independently in the future, and she will no longer need to rely on her family's pocket money, suck the family's blood, and look at the eyes of other members of the family.
Thinking of this, Chen Chuan took a taxi to the winery.
In the winery, I met two subordinates, Louis and Marion.
Chen Chuan and the two of them bluntly stated that they wanted to acquire [Rose Family Winery].
Louis and Marion were first surprised by the boss's generosity, and then they also said that in the morning, a 180 cm tall, fair-faced Chinese young man came to the winery to make plans for the wine to be destroyed.
Chen Chuan laughed. Why did he sound like Dong Bo?
It's not impossible. Anyway, both the Teng family and the Dong family are involved in the red wine business. It's possible to purchase a batch of red wine solution and bring it back to China for packaging.
However, the system had reimbursed the wine, so Chen Chuan would not sell it under any circumstances.
Louis and Marion handled this matter quite well.
Louis went to work.
Chen Chuan took Marion to [Rose Family Winery] to inquire about the acquisition.
On the way, Marion asked with a smile: "Boss, I have not lost my loyalty to you in the face of the temptation of money. Is there any reward?"
"Want a reward?"
"Well, a few hundred dollars is never too little, and a few hundred million is never too much," Marion said.
Chen Chuan saw that her eyes were shining and she looked very sincere. When the car reached a forest area, he asked her to stop the car.
…
[Rosaca Winery] is located in the village of St. Julian's, with an 80-hectare vineyard area.
In fact, the name is a bit of a copycat of [Chateau Rosemont], which is a well-known second-level winery worth 200 million euros.
This [Roses Family Winery] is also tainted with the word rose. Thanks to this, its overseas sales are quite popular. It is also a mid-level winery, similar to Chen Chuan's [Chateau Tuwell], but it is just a plantation. Larger area.
There is also a medieval castle inside the winery, which looks very grand.
The winery is currently for sale, and several companies are already approaching.
Chen Chuan asked Marion to get it directly for 13 million euros.
Marion received many rewards on the way here, and now she is naturally full of energy and energy.
"Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, we have already negotiated with two friends from China. Although the contract has not been signed yet, it will be signed in the next two days." The other party said.
Chen Chuan smiled slightly and showed his identity as [Knights of the Left Bank of Bordeaux].
This status was granted by the system, and even Marion was surprised that her boss was a member of the Left Bank Knights.
There are 400 members around the world, and the leading figures in French politics and business are all members of this knighthood. This identity is quite convincing.
[Roses Family Winery] saw Chen Chuan’s Knights of the Left Bank medal and no longer hesitated, directly prepared the contract and signed it immediately.
This medal is full of gold in Bordeaux and can be used wherever you go. It is like a pass given by the ancient emperor, allowing you to speak and do things smoothly.
"Yeah, it's unimpeded, I agree with that." Marion also said.
so.
While Teng Qingqing was waiting in her room 1314 of the Four Seasons Hotel, applying perfume and powder, Chen Chuan did not understand the meaning of her eyes and did not form a tacit understanding with her. And when they arrived at [Chateau Rose Saga Winery], they spent 13 million euros to buy her a property with her name and information written on it.
Without knowing it, Teng Qingqing became the female boss of Rose Family Winery and the hostess of Rose Family Castle. This winery can create a net profit of 3 million euros every year.
As long as she can hold on, she will have 3 million euros, or 23.3 million yuan, in her account, which is equivalent to doing nothing every year. From now on, she no longer needs to look at the Teng family's face. She can get pocket money from the Teng family every month, and can even feed the Teng family in return.
As for whether to repay or deny, it depends on what she thinks and does.
According to Chen Chuan's understanding of Teng Qingqing, this woman really likes to play online games. 23.3 million is taken into account every year, and 3.3 million may be used to play online games, buy equipment, and build guilds, while the remaining 20 million is saved to earn interest. At most, I would ask a few beautiful girlfriends to go shopping and buy things together on weekends. If I feel good, I will travel around.
Chen Chuan also has a good impression of Teng Qingqing, and "like" is not an exaggeration.
Chen Chuan can confirm this. In the mountains of Shanghai, in the car on a rainy night, Chen Chuan confirmed this. This is a Bai Fumei with a simple and kind heart. If she were not older, she would indeed be her ideal woman.
Now, Chen Chuan feels good about giving this woman a gift of 13 million euros, which is 100 million. What's even better is that Chen Chuan can get 200 million.
He looked at the balances in his bank cards: his main card contained 63.11 million pounds, 90 million U.S. dollars, and 2.15 million yuan.
But the balance in his bank card in France is: 7.9 million euros.
And, there is a box of gold coins worth 1 million euros.
This is his current total assets.
13 million euros, Chen Chuan communicated with the seller, and payment can be made in pounds or US dollars. Chen Chuan chose British pounds and calculated the exchange rate.
13 million euros, equivalent to 11.65 million pounds.
So with the help of Marion, Chen Chuan found an accounting firm and a law firm to conduct an audit, confirming that all assets in the winery were correct, that the wine stored in the cellar was correct, and that there were no pesticide residues or pesticide residues. The last incident involving pesticide residues.
After everything was correct, Chen Chuan signed the contract and paid 11.65 million pounds.
The moment the contract came into effect, the 80-hectare Rose Family Winery became Ms. Teng Qingqing’s private property.
"Ding! [Bond·Billion Dollar Consumption Rebate Card] takes effect. The host spent 11.65 million pounds for the bond target and received double rebate of 23.3 million pounds. The amount has been transferred to the host's bank card."
Hearing the system prompt, Chen Chuan snapped his fingers. This trip to Bordeaux was really fruitful!
At this point, the balance in his bank card is: 74.76 million pounds, 90 million US dollars and 2.15 million yuan.
There is still a balance on the other card: 7.9 million euros.
If all were converted into dollars, Chen Chuan did a mental calculation and found that based on the current exchange rate, he would have a total of: 1.35 billion in cash.
Moreover, there is another good thing, that is, it is approaching the end of the year. His [Tianlong Group] and other Tianzitou industries will pay dividends. Tianlong Group, Tianxing Car Dealer, Tianhai Intercontinental Hotel, Tianying Studios, Tianxiang Manor (in Jianzhong), as well as mokk nightclub, Time Story Cafe, and drive-in restaurants are all his wholly-owned properties. After deducting costs and taxes, it is estimated that the acquisition will cost at least 300 million.
As for other small benefits, Chen Chuan ignored them. For example, there was a small prop called [Christmas Tree Card King], which was filled with many cards. If you shake it every day, a card will fall out.
Those cards are nothing more than membership cards for various shopping malls, with stored value. Each card costs an average of 300,000 yuan. There are 30 cards in total, which adds up to a small amount of 9 million yuan. These cards are used to reward beautiful employees at the end of the year, no, excellent employees, that's enough.
"Boring, boring, boring!"
Chen Chuan sighed, thinking that he had 1.35 billion in cash, as well as so many industries, real estate, and luxury cars, was boring.
"Boss, what does kuzao mean?" Marion was open-minded and eager to learn.
"What boring means is, for example, you like a Chanel jacket, which costs 9,900 euros, and you buy 100 pieces in one go without batting an eye. Then you see a bag, which costs 8,800 euros, and you look at it again. Without blinking, you bought 100 of them in one go. You also valued a sports car for 200,000 yuan. You didn’t blink and bought 10 cars in one go. How do you feel? Do you feel that life is a bit boring and boring? " Chen River Road.
Marion nodded in understanding, as if she was calculating what the concept of 100 Chanel coats was.
"Come, read with me, it's boring." Chen Chuan said.
"kuzao" Marion said mechanically.
"It seems you have no idea. Let me give you another example. The house price in the little Paris you yearn for is about 10,000 euros per square meter. You were optimistic that a house would cost 4 million euros, so you bought 10 houses in one go. How do you feel? ?" Chen Chuan asked.
"kuzao" Marion said.
After signing the contract and paying the money, Chen Chuan and Marion were warmly entertained by Eric, the former owner of Rose Family Winery, and had lunch at the winery.
Chen Chuan learned that the owner of the village was once a French fencing champion. After retirement, he and his wife jointly founded a sporting goods company. Later, the two of them joined forces and sold the sporting goods company. The ownership was invested in the winery, and he lived a life of "retreating to the vineyard".
Now, this winery is being sold because the business is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more winery industries. There are four wineries in the Bordeaux production area alone, and there are two more in Burgundy, so we have to sell one. .
Chen Chuan is also very interested in fencing.
Fencing is France’s strong sport, and it often wins Olympic gold medals. The former owner Eric won 4 world championships for France and was considered one of the best epee swordsmen of the year.
This sport is quite expensive, and you have to spend a lot of money to buy equipment.
Fencing is divided into three categories: foil, saber and epee.
After lunch, Chen Chuan wanted to fight the swordsman, but the former owner was old and his daughter fought for him. His daughter seemed to have inherited her parents' strong fencing genes. She poked several holes in Chen Chuan's body with an epee, but luckily she was wearing protective clothing.
But Chen Chuan felt that he was not a loser, because he didn't understand the rules for the first time, and gradually became familiar with straight thrusts, moving thrusts, and back thrusts. The former owner's daughter might not be able to beat him.
"Chen, you are my good friend. When you come to Bordeaux in the future, I will take you to have fun." Eric said happily.
"Okay, come back next time and have a good fight with your daughter. Don't make her cry when the time comes, haha." Chen Chuan said.
"Chen, your goal may not be achieved. Ariana's swordsmanship is very high." Eric said.
"Then I'll go back and practice the 'Throat Seal with One Sword' technique, and then I'll let her have a try," Chen Chuan said.
Chen Chuan and the former owner's family were drinking coffee after dinner, chatting and laughing, when a housekeeper came in and said: "The group of Chinese people who are interested in buying the winery are here."
Eric said: "Then I'm sorry. You go and tell them that the winery has been sold and is no longer in my name. If they want to see..."
Eric said and looked at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan shook his head.
Eric said: "That's not the case. As for the new owner's information, don't disclose it."
"Okay." The housekeeper went down.
Chen Chuan also noticed that Eric's daughter, the blonde beauty who just defeated him with an epee, was whispering to her mother quietly, and her mother looked at Chen Chuan with a smile.
"Are you talking about me?" Chen Chuan asked with a smile.
Her mother laughed and said, "My daughter said you are very handsome when you hold a sword. She hopes to compete with you next time you come."
"Definitely, she won't be disappointed next time. But she'd better take personal protection to avoid being stabbed to the core, haha." Chen Chuan looked at her daughter and smiled.
