“I’m inviting everyone here today for one thing only, and that is I want to hire everyone here.”
This sentence was like a thunder that exploded in everyone's heart. The foreigners here are all familiar with China. They speak Chinese more smoothly than some Chinese people. They understand every word of what Qin Dao said, but this whole sentence They had no idea what the words meant.
Qin Dao continued, "Of course this includes the families and forces behind you."
Qin Dao turned to look at little Luke. The eighteen-year-old girl's face was flushed after several glasses of white wine. When she met Qin Dao's gaze, she actually showed a bit of flattery.
Qin Dao picked up the blue-glazed Yunlong cup, toasted the girl alone, and drank another glass of wine. Little Luke's face turned redder, and he was about to speak with charming eyes when he was interrupted by Qin Dao.
"You come here today to represent your grandfather and your family."
"Of course..." Little Luke stopped mid-sentence and looked at Qin Dao suspiciously, "Is what you just said true?"
"of course it's true."
Hearing this, not only little Luke, but also everyone else put down their chopsticks and pricked up their ears to listen.
"I spent some time investigating the assets of your Smith family. You came to China six years ago. Before you left the United States, your assets exceeded 400 billion United States dollars. You have indeed paid a lot to get rid of the United States. We have lost almost 200 billion Lianzhong coins. But you have made some gains in these years in China. Your family's total assets are now about 350 billion Lianzhong coins. Am I right?"
Little Luke was trained as the next successor of the family, and no one knew the family's financial situation better than she did.
"365.3 billion Lianzhong coins, equivalent to 2.565 billion Chinese coins. What are you doing investigating our family?"
"Of course we're talking about business."
At this time Ah Fu handed several documents to Qin Dao.
"What's this?"
"These are the shares of the four most valuable companies in my hands. A bank in Russia, a financial company in Europe, a real estate group in South America, which in addition to real estate also has a large amount of forest land, and a mining group in North Africa. This mining group We just recently captured a gold mine."
"What does it mean."
"I will take out 30% of the shares from these four companies. The total value is exactly 365.3 billion Lianzhong coins. These are for you."
This frightened little Luke. She took the file and looked at it, and the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became.
"what do you want."
"Forty-five percent of your family's shares."
This is a very big temptation. Qin Dao exchanges high-quality assets with greater value for the shares of the Smith family's re-established industrial empire in China. Not counting the difference in the price of these shares between the two parties, it is obvious that the income given by Qin Dao is higher.
Little Luke knew that he could not refuse and had no reason to refuse, and his grandfather would not refuse. Her grandfather seemed to have become much more detached in recent years and no longer cared about money.
"Then, what do we need to do?"
"Stay with us in the same boat, advance and retreat together, and in the future we will share blessings, hardships, honors and disgrace."
This business is a loss-making deal for everyone, but it is still a good deal for Qin Dao. Although he directly lost 200 billion Lianzhong coins in the process, from his perspective, he Although 200 billion was lost, more funds could be mobilized. And it has attracted a huge financial group and a large group of professionals.
"How do you restrain us?"
"unnecessary."
"What I mean is, if our family takes advantage of you and then violates it, what will you do?"
"When the time comes, just kill those who don't listen to you. You should know that I can do it."
"I can't promise you now, I need to make a phone call with my grandpa."
"Please."
The wine glass was filled again, and Qin Dao looked at Henry Russell.
Henry Russell was a boy two years younger than Qin Dao. His eyes shone at this time and he drank a glass of wine in one gulp.
.
"Our family can do it. We don't need 350 billion Lianzhong coins. We only need 200 billion. Oh no, we only need 100 billion. I can promise you now."
"Henry, I think you are thinking too much. Your family is not valuable. Let's put it this way, your family's reputation cannot be measured by money."
Henry's face suddenly fell.
"Your Russell family, your family's industry has begun to decline since your father took over the family. With all due respect, your father is not a competent family leader, but a failed businessman. He has been in power for twenty years. In the year, more than half of your family's property was basically destroyed, and the rest were loss-making assets and fixed assets of the family. If he simply gave up those bad assets and started over, he might still be able to save it. But your father is not willing Give up the small family that follows you. Your family has been unable to make ends meet since ten years ago. Since then, you have been living on loans. Although I helped you pay off all your debts a few years ago, last year you started to borrow money from the bank again. "
In front of so many people, Henry's face became more and more ugly, and now it was the color of pig liver. But he knew very well that the only person in front of him who could change all this was the young Chinese man in front of him, so he did not interrupt Qin Dao and continued to listen quietly.
"Your family still has a good reputation and credibility. There is a group of small families who are willing to follow you. They have a certain say in the entire English Island and even in Europe, so I am willing to invest in your Russell family."
Although the young man of the Russell family was ecstatic at the moment, he did not show it too much. He just nodded to Qin Dao to express his gratitude.
"But I have a few conditions. First, your family is not allowed to participate in the management of all family businesses within five years. I will send someone to take over and operate it in the name of your Russell family."
Before Henry could think about it, Qin Dao continued, "I will provide for all your family's expenses within five years. After five years, I will return everything that should belong to you."
"Why do you do this?"
"It's very simple. You can no longer operate these industries, so you might as well let me reorganize them. Sell what should be sold and throw away what should be thrown away. Only then can we have the possibility of resurrection. If there are new industries to be promoted in five years, we will Divide. Do you still have any questions? If not, I will continue."
He has reservations about foreigner Qin Dao. In fact, the assets of the Russell family are not as bad as Qin Dao said, such as the two ports and their mobile communication business, but it is true that they are not managed well. Qin Dao is not helping them run it. In order to seize their assets, he wanted to use the tiger's skin as a banner and use their family's reputation to expand some businesses that foreigners could not set foot in England. Most importantly he needed collateral and was prepared to be a civilian if they betrayed him.
Seeing that Henry was silent, Qin Dao continued, "Second, your family must mobilize all its strength to help me when I need it. Since your family has no money now, then you can help me."
"Well... there are some superpowers in our family, but the number is too small, so it probably won't be of much use."
"That's not okay. Don't think about just taking benefits without doing anything. Don't think that I don't know that hundreds of years ago, your family once led the Knights of the Temple, one of the three major knights in Europe."
Henry's face turned the color of pig liver again at this time, and he had no secrets in front of Qin Dao.
"The Knights of the Temple were defeated in the Eastern Expedition. Your ancestors led a group of remnants back to England and joined the Royal Knights. Although this team has been shrinking over the years, you only pursue quality rather than quantity. That's right, keep the number at around 200 people."...
"How on earth do you know this?"
"You know something about the history of China. Do you know about horse thieves? Usually these horse thieves are farmers. No one knows that they are horse thieves, not even their own companions. Only the real leader has this list. When it is necessary to commit a crime When the time comes, the leader will notify each village one by one, and everyone will go out with their faces covered. This is similar to the method you use now. I discovered the problem when I checked your family's property. Without these people, your family would have It won’t fail like this.”
"Yes, since you know it, I won't deny it, but I feel that they are really powerless to fight with the intensity you did yesterday."
Ah Fu appeared again at the right time, this time carrying two wooden suitcases.
Ah Fu opened one of the boxes. There were two things in the box. A long red and black knife, and a light yellow arm guard. This arm guard goes from the glove to the elbow.
Ah Fu put on the arm guard with his left hand, held the knife in his right hand, and looked at Qin Dao. Qin Dao nodded slightly to start.
I saw Ah Fu suddenly scratching the back of the knife. The red and black knife quickly turned red, and there seemed to be a faint flame burning on the blade. The flames grew stronger and stronger, burning for nearly two minutes. Finally, Ah Fu shot into the air. He threw up an iron ingot and lifted the knife in his hand from bottom to top. There was almost no sound of metal contact, and the iron ingot was cut in two.
Everyone exhaled at this time and secretly screamed "Good Knife" in their hearts.
"This is one of our achievements over the years. This sword is called the Fire Sword. It combines formation, forging, mechanism skills and talisman skills. Even if you are not a member of the Taoist sect, you can use this sword to induce some natural forces. . The knife can be used for two minutes each time the power of fire is activated. During this period, it is easy to cut gold and cut jade. It takes twelve hours after each use to activate the power of fire again. During these twelve hours, this knife The knife can be used normally."
Ah Fu then began to demonstrate the arm guard. He pinched it with his five fingers, as if crushing something. Then starting from the finger cuffs, the entire arm guard changed from light yellow to khaki. Only then did everyone see clearly that this arm guard The material may be ceramic, a ceramic that is harder and lighter than metal.
Ah Fu punched out. This punch seemed light, but the punch was so fast that it almost broke the sound barrier. After the punch was exhausted, another exquisite crossbow arrow was shot from the arm guard. The crossbow arrow penetrated the back of a solid wood chair in front of him and then It shot through the seat of the chair and into the solid wood floor.
"The Earth Element Arm Guard, you have also seen its power. Ordinary practitioners can use it twice a day, but I can barely use it five times a day. There are also three crossbow arrows on the arm guard that can shoot up to sixty meters."
"Why can this glove only be used twice a day, and why can you use it five times?" Henry asked impatiently.
"The force is too great and the body cannot bear it."
"These weapons seem to require certain consumables to activate, right?" The veiled woman spoke for the first time.
"Yes." Ah Fu opened his palms. There seemed to be a mechanism in the palm of the iron fist glove. Ah Fu opened the mechanism and inserted a small bottle the size of a fingernail. Then pick up the Fire Blade. There is also a mechanism on the back of the knife. The bottle used here is dark red.
Sure enough, everyone began to criticize Qin Dao for being a deceitful woman. No matter how good the thing was, it could only be used as an ordinary piece of equipment after leaving Qin Dao.
"What's in the other box?" Henry asked. He seemed to be particularly interested in these very things.
"A shield, a gold shield." Ah Fu opened the box. Inside the wooden box was a dull, seemingly ordinary round shield. If you look closely, you will find that there are some strange lines and runes carved on the shield mountain.
"This shield can be used for fifteen minutes after activation. It can easily block 12.7mm caliber sniper rifles, and can barely block 15mm caliber bullets."
Qin Dao looked at Henry and said, "How are you satisfied? If your knights come, you can equip them with these things."
Henry nodded repeatedly.
"The last condition is that I need your father to give up his position as the head of the family."
