Chapter 117 Hanging out with British-owned foreign firms (seeking monthly ticket! Seeking recommended ticket!)

With Wu Guangyao’s current net worth and living in a tenement house, he obviously felt shabby.

Even security is not easy to set up. If a child is born in the future without a big yard, wouldn’t it be childish?

The convoy passed Happy Valley, and then drove along Deep Water Bay Road for less than 20 minutes before arriving at Deep Water Bay.

This time Wu Guangyao came to Deep Water Bay, naturally, he focused on the ancestral home of the later generations of Li Chaoren, intending to take it as his own.

But when Wu Guangyao found the local housing department for inquiries, he was dumbfounded, there is no Deep Water Bay 79.

It means that the house has not been built yet, and Wu Guangyao immediately feels a great humiliation and an unhappy expression on his face.

Lin Yueru next to Wu Guangyao looked at Wu Guangyao and came here with great interest, but now she seemed to be sulking at someone.

"Would you like to find a Feng Shui man to see the land?" Lin Yueru thought Wu Guangyao could not find a good land, so she was sulking.

Wu Guangyao's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Yes, Feng Shui, why didn't I think about it!"

Suddenly made Lin Yueru startled, and said dissatisfied: "Don't be surprised, what should I do with the kid in my stomach?"

Wu Guangyao said amusedly: "It hasn't taken shape yet, what's so frightening!"

Wu Guangyao finally knows how to find Deep Water Bay 79, because he has read the news in his previous life, saying that Deep Water Bay 79 faces the golf course, and there is a mountain far away, forming the shape of stars holding the moon and gathering wealth.

Facing the golf course, it shows that there is a large flat area; there is a mountain in the distance, which is also a striking reminder.

Plus, Deep Water Bay No. 79 is in the middle of the mountain, which is also a reminder.

Wu Guangyao is no longer blindly searching, and is going to hand it to Brother Fang so that he can help him find a Feng Shui master to do this.

Wheelock's headquarters, when the Pacific War broke out in 1941, moved to London.

At the same time, in recent years, Wheelock has been vigorously developing shipping, so that when encountering great changes, it can hold its head and withdraw as soon as possible.

Wu Guangyao met with Wheelock’s head George Madden at the Wheelock Island branch.

George Madden is a tall, burly, tall and domineering, alive Prussian.

Wu Guangyao is not surprised, he has been talking about business with many white bosses.

When these white bosses look at Asians, they always have a domineering expression. Maybe they think they are superior!

Daniel Lowig of the United States is like this, and so is the head of Wheelock!

Wu Guangyao slandered in his heart. Daniel Lowig had offended himself, and he had already retaliated against him.

First of all, his own business was handed over to his rival Fisher; second, he told Fisher about the opportunity that originally belonged to the Dongying Wugang Shipbuilding Base, which caused him a heavy loss.

Daniel Lowig may have a guess that it was Wu Guangyao who instructed Fisher, I am afraid he is full of regrets!

I hope that this one is enough, or else I have a way to rectify him!

"Sundus told me that you want to buy my old boat?" George Madden said proudly.

Wu Guangyao secretly told himself that he can bear it, don’t care about it, it’s just a bad tone!

"Yes, does Far East Shipping have second-hand ships to sell?" Wu Guangyao said calmly with patience.

"Of course there is, but it's not cheap!" George Madden has a slight scorn on his face. Although he has a loan from HSBC, he still doesn't believe that this one can afford a second-hand freighter of 10,000 tons.

"Buyers have to see the goods before buying things, and then the seller's quotation. You have reached these conclusions early. Whether it is expensive or cheap, as long as the freighter is worth that price, I will naturally buy it." Wu Guangyao was confident. Said.

I have decided in my heart that I must buy Wheelock’s boat, and I have to cheat them severely.

Wu Guangyao is so self-confident that he can get into an established foreign company for a reason.

As far as I know, the pound will depreciate by about 30% around September this year.

If you can do a little bit on the contract, Wu Guangyao can make a lot of money.

When George Madden heard Wu Guangyao's words, he couldn't help being stunned. Among the Chinese he came into contact with, all of them saw that they were only conscientious.

Which looks like this kid, with a look of arrogance!

"There are two 10,000-ton tankers under maintenance at Taikoo Dockyard. This is their information!" George Madden took out a pile of information from the drawer, his face was slightly uncomfortable, apparently thinking that Wu Guangyao was not giving himself face.

Wu Guangyao picked up the information and began to look seriously. Although the information was written by Wheelock, it is at least 70 to 80% authentic.

Of course, I will definitely go to Taikoo Dockyard, and I will decide to buy it after the on-site inspection.

"I need to bring someone to see the existing ship!" After reading the information, Wu Guangyao felt lost, and planned to take He Yuanzhang and the company's people who know the shipyard to investigate.

George Madden did not embarrass Wu Guangyao any more. Instead, he called a steward and brought a group of people to Taikoo Dockyard and agreed to negotiate tomorrow morning.

Although George Madden is arrogant, he did not make too obvious falsehoods in the data, which is in line with 90% of the data.

The next day, the two teams came to the meeting room for the final discussion.

"The price of your second-hand ships is 10% more expensive than that of the United States, which is unacceptable. Therefore, for two 10,000-ton freighters, our global shipping is only willing to pay 250,000 pounds." Wu Guangyao went straight to the subject and tried to cut the mess.

"Impossible, this is our latest offer, 280,000 pounds, not one point less!" George Madden said with a Prussian face still.

Wu Guangyao was about to speak, and He Yuanzhang said first: "Mr. George, you Wheelock has withdrawn all of its business from the mainland. The business in Asia has shrunk and it is not enough to raise so many ships, let alone old ships. You need to consider carefully if These old ships are withdrawn to Europe and the United States. Will the employers look down on your Wheelock."

Obviously, He Yuanzhang is right. The two ships are indeed Wheelock’s redundant assets and do not want to withdraw their European and American assets.

"So what? We would rather stop at the port than sell at a low price!" George Madden made the last resistance because he loved face.

"Mr. George, doing business is not arrogant. We have an old saying in China, which is called harmony and wealth. We are now in an equal relationship. You also have a saying in the West that customers are God. I hope you will seriously consider that 250,000 pounds is indeed our global shipping. After all, we don’t want to be taken advantage of.” Wu Guangyao said in the end.

is in Fisher's hands, there is still a lot, and he has no reason to lower his voice.

George’s assistant looked at the boss and wanted to be angry, and quickly whispered a few words in the ear of George Madden, apparently to persuade the boss.

In fact, 250,000 pounds (1 million US dollars), two 12,000 tons of oil tankers, Wheelock did not suffer, and even a lot of damage, after all, these two oil tankers have 18 years of history.

Seeing that George Madden was already embarrassed, the assistant quickly gave the boss a step and said: "Our boss needs to think about it for a few minutes!"

George Madden pretended to hesitate for a while, and said: "250,000 pounds is 250,000 pounds, do you plan to settle in pounds?"

got the bait, let's see if I won’t let you down again!

Wu Guangyao said: "Yes, in pounds sterling, and I don’t plan to take a loan for this fee. I plan to pay your foreign bank in installments directly, and the interest will be calculated! I think your foreign bank should have this service, right?"

George Madden is a little puzzled, isn’t this one cooperating with HSBC?

Why let your own foreign bank earn this interest!

However, this kind of thing can of course be promised. Wheelock belongs to one of the four largest foreign banks on Hong Kong Island and can even do loans.

Finally, the two parties reached an agreement that Global Shipping will be paid in 12 installments, each with a payment of 24,000 pounds.

Wu Guangyao carefully read the contract and found that there are no clauses on it to prevent currency depreciation.

yelled in my heart, sent it!

Wait in September, when the pound depreciated by 30%, and I did not have a cent in my hands, but the contract was paid in pound sterling. In this way, wouldn’t I earn 30%.

Of course, this kind of thing can’t be done too much, so as not to be jealous!

If it weren’t for George Madden’s bad attitude, Wu Guangyao wouldn’t want to earn these hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

As for the trouble, Wu Guangyao is really not afraid now, he is a member of HSBC!

Here signed a contract with Wheelock, Wu Guangyao immediately found Sandus and explained the situation.

"For these two ships, we did not choose to borrow from HSBC because I plan to use these two ships as collateral to directly borrow 4 million Hong Kong dollars in cash from your HSBC. In the second half of the year, I plan to go to London to buy two more new ships. Used 10,000-ton freighter."

Sundus didn’t understand it a little bit. It took him so much work to convince himself and HSBC to agree to support him.

I didn’t want to turn around, so I gave the business to Wheelock. Could it be that Wheelock robbed HSBC’s business!

Sundas was unhappy and said: "Wu, we are partners, please don't make your own decision next time!"

Wu Guangyao knew that he was wrong, and said quickly: "Yes, I can't help it. George Madden of Wheelock is too strong. But you can rest assured that I will never make this kind of mistake again. In fact, Mr. Sandus, HSBC Bank There is no loss. After all, I will borrow 4 million Hong Kong dollars from you in the second half of the year to buy a new ship."

"Then what month do you plan to go to London?" Sundars did not struggle anymore. Now that he has signed a contract with Wheelock, it is too late to say anything.

It seems that Wheelock played a trick. After all, this young man is not George Madden’s opponent, Sundarth thought in his heart.

"September!"

"Master, Mr. Feng Shui found this piece of land according to your prompts, do you see, right?" Fang Ge'er pointed to an open land and said.

This clearing is on the middle of a mountain. Standing on the clearing and looking into the distance, there is indeed a mountain surrounded.

Going further, a larger open space suddenly comes into view. It is obviously qualified to be a golf course.

Below the large open space is the Deep Water Bay, but my villa has a bay away from the Deep Water Bay beach, so as to avoid the interruption of tourists.

Sure enough, it is a treasured place of geomantic omen, I deserve to be well-developed in my Wu family!

"Yes, that's it! I plan to buy this land from the government and build a villa!" Wu Guangyao did not hide the truth from Brother Fang.

"Great! When the young master is born, there is no need to worry about having no yard to play!" Fang Ge'er was also happy for Wu Guangyao.

With Wu Guangyao's current net worth, even living in the Baijiadao is no problem.

However, it will obviously provoke the Hong Kong government and feel that Wu Guangyao is uninterested!

After all, Baijiadao is equivalent to their last private plot, and it is definitely not welcome to Chinese.

The update of     will start today, and it will be changed to a chapter of 3000 words, 2 chapters a day, and the update of nearly 7000 words a day is the limit for office workers.

Of course, if there is a deposit, it will be updated. After all, I am also a person who relies on subscriptions to eat.

Explanation: Although the protagonist of this book is involved in a lot of industries, he has no real development. He is only involved in these industries for the first time, so the later period is still commercial.
