In the morning of the next day, when Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng went to have breakfast, Gu Xi, who they met on the plane, suddenly called him. The two chatted for a while, and Gu Xi asked him if he had called the friend she introduced. Only then did Zhao Xin remember that there was such a thing. When Zhao Xin mentioned the yacht club he went to yesterday, Gu Xi smiled and said that was the company where her friend worked.
When Zhao Xin heard this, he thought it was a coincidence, so he agreed that Gu Xi would bring his friends over for a chat in the morning. In line with the principle of comparing shopping and not hanging on a tree, Zhao Xin asked Liu Sheng to go to other clubs in the morning to see if there was a suitable type of boat that could hold at least a hundred people.
Liu Sheng rolled his eyes and sneered: "A hundred people? Then you might as well buy a fishing boat! I really don't understand you. You insist on buying a yacht when you are full!"
Zhao Xinxin said that I would like to buy a big fishing boat, but the problem is that the procedures are too cumbersome. Not only do you need to open a company, but you also have to apply for a fishing license, otherwise no one will sell it to you; moreover, you need to find people for large fishing boats, which is not as easy to get started as a yacht, which can be driven by two people; as for the third point, this What I'm thinking about right now is to make myself comfortable and appropriate first. I feel comfortable, things are done, and everyone is happy.
It is said that the refugees are allowed to farm, and they can get on a yacht to catch fish or something, and no one cares about it. The picture is very touching just thinking about it.
If you really want to buy a fishing boat, even if you can fool Liu Sheng, you won't be able to handle the turbine alone. In addition, there are motors; if you really want to buy a second-hand ocean-going fishing boat and it breaks down halfway, No one can play with this.
Moreover, the Tsugaru Strait in the northern part of the island country has strong winds and waves, which places high requirements on the reliability of ships. The reliability and speed of large yachts should be no problem. As for the big inland river boats, don't worry about it. The freeboard height is not enough, and if a big wave comes, it will be all over!
Although driving a yacht requires training and a driver's license, who cares in another time and space? As long as it doesn't capsize the boat, you can wave as you like!
Two hours later, Gu Xi brought her friends to the hotel lobby. This is also a woman, in her forties, surnamed Yang, who has been doing this for more than ten years. After the three introduced each other, they went to the coffee shop in the hotel lobby.
From the initial chat, Zhao Xin learned that this person named Yang, oh, she is not married, so she can be called Miss Yang. This Miss Yang is the vice president of the yacht club. Since she also has business in Beijing, she has been traveling between Beijing and Sanya for a long time. Ms. Yang's company has signed a long-term cooperation with the advertising company where Gu Xi works, and Gu Xi is the project manager responsible for the specific implementation. Therefore, after several years of dating, although the two are quite different in age, their personal relationship is going well.
Zhao Xin asked doubtfully: "I know there are yacht docks in Hujiang and Jiaodong, but where can I buy yachts in the capital? The Summer Palace or the reservoir? That's not allowed either."
Miss Yang covered her mouth and smiled: "Mr. Zhao, you are really funny, it's a canal. Nowadays, many companies arrange company gatherings, business meetings, etc. to be sailed on yachts in the canal, which is quite innovative."
"Oh!" Zhao Xin suddenly realized.
"Mr. Zhao, can I ask which boat you have selected for sale in our club?"
"Azimut 98."
Ouch~! This guy is angry and rich! However, Miss Yang had seen a lot of rich people, so she glanced at Gu Xi beside her, who shook her head slightly.
Miss Yang thought to herself that the little girl didn't want any middlemen fees. Could it be that she was interested in others' rhythm?
So she considered it and said: "I am very good friends with Gu Xi, and you are the friend introduced by Gu Xi, so I will tell you the truth. This boat was entrusted to us for sale. It belongs to the seller." The expected price cannot be less than 50 million. After we took over, we re-maintained and updated the ship; we also repaired some furniture and doors that had been bumped before; and we also repaired the berths at the pier. Because the seller has financial difficulties, we have always been responsible for paying the fees. We have to include these investments."
When Gu Xi heard the number "50 million", his brain stopped thinking. She originally thought that the yacht Zhao Xin wanted to buy would only cost one or two million. She could find help from friends and it would be great if she could get it down to ten or twenty thousand. I didn’t expect Zhao Xin to be such a wealthy person!
However, Gu Xi was thoughtful. During the conversation, she turned around and pretended to look around casually at the decoration of the hotel lobby, so as not to appear so surprised. Just listen to Zhao Xinda: "Yes, I understand everything you said. Whether you are doing business, you must make a profit."
"Gu Xi called me early this morning and told me that he had found a business for me, and then he dragged me over without any explanation." Miss Yang looked at Gu Xi with a smile, and Gu Xi's face was grim. It's red.
Zhao Xin pretended not to see it and said politely: "Thank you very much. I'm really sorry to trouble you."
Miss Yang gently tapped the armrest of the sofa and said to Zhao Xin: "Okay, then I'll give you a real price. I make the decision, it's 20,000 cheaper."
"Damn!" Zhao Xinxin said, is that all? Not even a one-thousandth discount. If you have this time, what else can you do? It’s a waste of time for Tumo Xingzi.
As soon as Miss Yang saw Zhao Xin's expression, she knew that the other party was dissatisfied. She kept talking for a long time, and finally got a one-thousandth discount.
Zhao Xin is too lazy to talk anymore. He is too pressed for time now. Once winter comes, the sea on the Bear Island will freeze, so he will have to wait until the ice melts in the spring of next year before he can leave.
Moreover, I haven't decided what to say about Liu Sheng yet. Zhao Xin had a vague idea in his mind, but he had to hurry up.
"Okay, that's it. Then what do you think will happen next?"
"Look at what time you have time today. Let's sign the contract first. There are still a lot of registration and transfer procedures to go through later."
"Let's go tomorrow. I want to take a knowledgeable friend with me."
Miss Yang didn't show any pretense and said, "Okay~ I'll be waiting for you then."
"That's very kind of you. Thank you very much."
Miss Yang immediately stood up and shook hands with Zhao Xin, looked at Gu Xi and said, "Then I'll go back first, you two stay here."
After Miss Yang walked out of the hotel, the two of them sat down again. Gu Xi was holding the juice in one hand and holding the straw in the other. After a while, she said: "You rich man, I've got 50,000 left to help you. You have to treat me at noon." Let’s have a big meal.”
"What kind of rich man you are? If the wind blows away the eggshells, the wealth will go away and people will be happy. May I ask what you want to eat for lunch?"
Zhao Xin looked at Gu Xi, who was wearing a bohemian-style dress, with a smile and thought that it was still eye-catching for modern people. These days, he has been facing a group of old, young, women and children in the camp who are less than 1.5 meters tall and are dark and thin due to malnutrition. The ones in their 17s and 18s look like they are in their thirties, but the ones in their thirties are impossible to look at at all!
Speaking of which, Li Ji's wife Shino is the most beautiful among these women, but in Zhao Xin's eyes... forget it, just don't mention it.
Near noon, in order to express his gratitude for the other party's help, Zhao Xin took Gu Xi to take a taxi to a restaurant in Haitang Bay Town, where they tasted the famous Tengqiao pork ribs and spicy and sour pork belly. They were very enjoyable.
I went back to the hotel in the afternoon and met Liu Sheng and talked about the situation. Liu Sheng walked around several yacht clubs and said that the biggest one was the "Azimut 98" they were looking at.
The next morning, Zhao Xin took Liu Sheng to the yacht club to sign the contract and transfer 30% of the payment. Two days later, the original ship owner hurriedly arrived and went with Zhao Xin to the maritime department to go through the cancellation and re-registration procedures. After the procedures were completed, Zhao Xin paid the remaining amount together.
After using the agency of Ms. Yang's company and paying a considerable agency fee, two days later, the "Vessel Ownership Certificate", "Yacht Seaworthiness Certificate" and Ship Nationality Certificate were quickly issued. At this moment, Zhao Xin truly took ownership of this thirty-meter yacht.
When Zhao Xin came out after completing the formalities, he complained to Liu Sheng beside him: "If you say you don't want to buy it, it will be too noisy; if you finish it, your body will hurt."
Liu Sheng said "cut" disdainfully, thinking to himself, you are just a charlatan!
After completing the boat purchase procedures, Zhao Xin hired the driver of the yacht club and called Gu Xi, and the three of them went out to sea for a day together.
Liu Sheng had worked and lived on a ship for many years and was almost sick of the sea scenery, so he took his fishing rod to the stern of the ship to fish, while Zhao Xin and Gu Xi sat on the bow of the ship, laughing and chatting, blowing in the sea breeze and basking in the sun.
One day later, Gu Xi flew back and left contact information with Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng also booked flights for the next morning, but before leaving, Zhao Xin had to do something.
Late that night, on the pier of the club, a sneaky guy wearing dark gray clothes, covering his face, came to the trestle where the "Azimut 98" was docked. In the blink of an eye, the thirty-meter-long yacht disappeared from the berth. The figure looked around for a while. There was only the sound of waves lapping around him, and no one noticed it, so he quickly left the pier.
Early the next morning, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng left Sanya by plane. As soon as the plane landed, Zhao Xin turned on his mobile phone and received a call from the yacht club, informing Zhao Xin that his boat was missing.
Zhao Xin used the time to go to the toilet to avoid Liu Sheng, and told the club that he had urgent matters to deal with when he returned to Beijing. He would go over to deal with the call to the police as soon as he was done with his work here.
Tens of millions worth of things have been lost, and the club is not keeping strict supervision. When the owner sues, joint and several liability will be inevitable; and it will have a greater impact on the company's reputation. If you can’t stand a yacht worth tens of millions, who will dare to let you go in the future?
That Miss Yang called Zhao Xin more than ten times a day, and she almost went crazy with anxiety. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xin's mobile phone was turned off the next day, and Miss Yang was immediately confused. What was going on? !
Two days later, the anxious Ms. Yang suddenly received a courier. When she opened it, there was a written statement signed by Zhao Xin and a notarized certificate. In the statement, Zhao Xin clearly promised not to hold Ms. Yang accountable. If one party is responsible, they will not sue their company, otherwise the compensation will be any amount; and the notarization was a judicial notarization of Zhao Xin's statement.
After reading it, Ms. Yang was completely stunned. It took her a long time to regain her composure, and she hurriedly found the company's lawyer to read it. When the other party confirmed that the two documents were authentic and valid, Ms. Yang suddenly felt that either the rich man was crazy, or the world was turned upside down.
How! What! special! What! return! have! this! kind! people? !
Although she was confused, Ms. Yang quickly informed the employees who knew about it and warned them not to tell anyone about the missing ship.
God bless! Ms. Yang, who was originally lamenting her unlucky years, suddenly felt like the sun was shining brightly. Fortunately, she met such a divine man (crazy). For the yacht club, a major lawsuit has finally come to an end.
On Zhao Xin's side, after sending out the courier, he dragged Liu Sheng onto the plane under the pretext of going to the island country to buy a house.
