Chapter 879 The Apartment Becomes a Den of Drugs?
"Interest..." Marshall took a deep breath, looked at Jonathan and said, "Washington will pay, but not what you asked for."
"An annual interest rate of 24%, which has never been seen before." Jonathan refused to budge.
This price is already very favorable, completely lower than the standard price of the market counterparts.
Washington is still dissatisfied with this, 'Don't they know enough is enough? '
Michelle rubbed her temples with some headaches, but she was secretly scolding Charlie for being a bastard.
No wonder he was very straightforward at first, it turned out that he was leaving the trouble to Astor.
Just like Michelle represented Roosevelt, both of them were people who had no choice but to be pushed to the stage, but they represented one in the light and the other in the 'darkness'. '
The negotiation with Li argued for only 2 and a half hours, and the interest rate was finally lowered by 2 points.
The annualized rate is 22%, a figure that is neither high nor low.
"If Morgenthau came, the interest would definitely be higher." After the contract was concluded, Jonathan was a little unwilling.
No matter what you said about the last one, the other party only responded with "too high", how can the negotiation continue?
"That's why Michelle is here." Li Zitao was quite satisfied, he was a person who was easily satisfied.
Emmmmwww.. Except in terms of women.
"Is the problem with Mobil and Shell all right?" Jonathan suddenly felt better when he mentioned this matter.
After Mobil joined Shell's board of directors, conflicts broke out frequently between the two parties, but they were more restrained.
But even so, the company is still panicking.
If it weren't for the high-level executives' restraint, and the strict blockade of conflicts on the board of directors, prohibiting any information from leaking out.
Now, Shell's situation may be even worse.
As an oil giant on the main battlefield, Shell's oil reserves and transportation pipelines are often bombed.
The importance is second only to arsenals, munitions factories, and important military locations.
For this reason, Shell has suffered heavy losses. If it were not for the assistance of the government, a large amount of imported oil from overseas would not be able to be uncovered now.
"Everyone knows what to do." Li Zitao said calmly, "Besides, this matter will come to a conclusion soon."
"Are you going to do it?" Jonathan asked with bright eyes.
"You should still care about your own problems!" Li Zitao smiled without saying a word.
With regard to the infighting between Mobil and Shell, in his mind it was entirely a 'benign' rivalry of the company.
Li Zitao shamelessly regards Shell as his own.
From the start of the new cooperation between the two companies, he let the think tank quietly acquire Shell's shares in the market.
Then, a mysterious shell company became Shell's new shareholder.
This new shareholder representative has a low sense of existence, and he will not express his position if he can not express his position. Most of the time he will abstain from voting.
Still, no one can ignore his stake.
Shareholders in both Shell and Mobil were trying to win his support, unaware that he had chosen to side with him from the start.
To put it simply, everything is fine for 'eating, drinking, and having fun', but it's not okay to talk about business.
Either he was dizzy and nauseated after drinking too much, or he still had something to do first, or he just didn't do business anyway.
It sounds simple, but to really do this, you need to have a strong heart and a thick enough face.
More importantly, let Li Zitao feel at ease.
In order to find such a person, the think tank was about to rummage through the list of the PR department.
"If the outside world finds out, they will definitely steal their heads." Not to mention others, even Jonathan is a little envious.
Just eat, drink, have fun and get benefits, and don't care about the rest.
All that needs to be done is to convey to the think tank verbatim what happened on the board of directors.
"If it's you, they'll go crazy right away." Who wouldn't envy you if you cast a good tire and you're already at the finish line?
The cannibalization of Shell should be done step by step, just like a dignified and elegant lady dining.
This matter must not be rushed, let alone add fuel to the fire, just boil the frog in warm water.
"The construction here is really good, remember to leave me an apartment." Jonathan raised his hand while eating an orange: "By the way, there is also Lawrence's."
"It's ready for you, do you want to go see it now?" Li Zitao pointed out the window.
"Really?" Jonathan just had a temporary idea, but he didn't expect that there was really a preparation for him.
When they walked out of the apartment, the two did not choose to take a car, but walked along the somewhat deserted street.
"Today is really a good weather." The climate is a little humid, and the slight warmth shines on the body, like soaking in a comfortable spring water.
"Did you see that?" Walking around the corner, Li Zitao pointed to a building on the side of the road that had not been completed for a long time and said, "It belongs to you."
"Dude..." Jonathan opened his mouth in surprise, "Are you sure you're not kidding, I won't pay."
"I'm not joking." Li Zitao said seriously, "I will deduct the money myself."
"You can't, hey, can't you?"
"Hey, what are you talking about, I don't have that much money..."
He yelled no, but walked towards the front of the building involuntarily, his expression full of excitement and anticipation.
But as soon as he reached the door, Jonathan found that the door was locked.
Although the whole building has been built, it is still in the rough stage, and the gate is also a temporary iron gate, hung with a big lock.
"The key...I paid for it." Jonathan seemed to have forgotten what he said before.
"Where's the key?" Li Zitao looked at Ava beside him.
She has always been in charge here, and Li Zitao only thinks that it is to protect the safety of the building and prevent homeless people from sneaking in to live there.
This kind of thing is not uncommon, after all, few people will go to see the vacant buildings, except for some luxury houses that hire people to look at the houses.
Ava also acted normally, thinking that the lock was arranged by someone from the company.
But after she finished asking the assistant beside her, her expression became ugly, and she looked at Li Zitao hesitantly and walked over.
Covering her mouth with her hand, Ava whispered, "Boss, we didn't lock it."
"En?" Li Zitao frowned, "What do you mean, someone has occupied this place privately, and they haven't been found yet?" '
"Open it." Li Zitao said to Danny beside him.
Danny immediately asked people to find tools, and soon borrowed tools from the nearby renovated house, and opened the big lock in front of him.
"What's going on, let's go down and have a look." At this moment, in the apartment full of blanks, someone heard the movement below.
This group of washing powder merchants from Mexico has 'lived' here for nearly 2 years.
After paying a small price, they obtained the right to use this place as their temporary foothold.
In 2 months, they established a temporary washing powder factory here.
In 4 months, the North American market was opened, and now it is getting bigger and bigger. It is a famous washing powder selling organization in New York.
The transportation is convenient, the price is cheap, and the quality of the goods is very good. Naturally, the local dealers like it very much.
From being a hawker who was greedy for convenience and cheapness at the beginning, to spreading his reputation and joining forces with the local mafia at the end.
The Ham Gang has long been famous.
It's just that the person who originally lent it to them recently wanted the Ham Gang to leave.
But how could Ham, who was used to staying here and using it as his base camp, agree, 'Whoever owns this place, tell him, I'll take it...I'll pay for it. '
However, he didn't know that it wasn't a matter of money at all.
