Chapter 1655 Rich Family
Although Tang Feng didn't know as much about these things as Lin Mengjia, he still knew a bit.
He said "Yeah", nodded, and said: "I know this, but it doesn't matter, it's just a matter of spending some money."
For Tang Feng, problems that can be solved with money are not problems at all.
With his current ability, it can be said that it is effortless to get money on earth.
Just relying on the prescriptions he gave Lin Mengjia and the drugs he produced could make the Mengtang Group make a lot of money every day, not to mention the big families who were rushing to fawn over him. As long as he opened his mouth, they were willing to take a lot of it. Send him lots of money.
However, Tang Feng didn't feel that he needed to spend a large amount of money, so when talking about medical treatment fees with these big families, he always put forward some conditions in exchange, most of which were for the future of Lin Mengjia and Mengtang Group. development has paved the way.
If he wanted money, it was too easy. For these big families, it was a great honor for Tang Feng to accept their money, and they wanted to rush to send the money to him.
Lin Mengjia knew this. She smiled softly, nodded, and said, "In that case, we can really choose one."
Tang Feng didn't care about money, and Lin Mengjia certainly didn't care either.
Not only because Mengtang Group is now making a lot of money, after all, Lin Mengjia grew up in the Lin family since she was a child. How could the daughter of the Lin family take money so seriously?
Tang Feng smiled and said: "When you are free, let's go there and have a look. Choose a place with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. It is best to be near mountains and rivers. In normal times, we can play around. It’s all refreshing. As for the inside of this castle, as long as it’s not too dilapidated, repairs and other things are nothing, and they can be repaired according to Yaoyao’s preferences.”
After Tang Feng said this, Lin Mengjia became more active and interested. She nodded repeatedly and looked at the video of Ruan Kande Castle that was playing on the screen, with a look of longing on her face. Come on.
What is being played at this moment is the latest video on the mobile hard drive, which was filmed during an interview with Ruan Kangde by a Chinese radio station shortly before he came to China.
Ruan Kande talked eloquently to the general, smiling broadly. No matter how you looked at him, he looked like an amiable old man. Who would have thought that there were so many secrets hidden behind him?
Lin Mengjia watched and said with a smile: "I once read a piece of gossip about a prince from a small Western country. After he paid a large sum of inheritance tax and inherited an old castle, he discovered that this castle It was a bottomless pit, and the huge repair costs made him want to cry. He was one of the richest people in their country, but about ten years after he got the castle, he could no longer afford it. So he had no choice but to They thought of selling this castle, but according to the laws of their country, such cultural monuments cannot be sold to foreigners and can only be purchased by their own people. But in that small country, even the prince cannot afford it, and others How can you afford it?”
When he said this, Lin Mengjia raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a somewhat naughty smile.
When Tang Feng saw this, he also smiled and said: "Even if he sells it at a low price, the Chinese people have the purchasing power, but they have no ability to maintain and repair it."
"Yes, the prince couldn't sell the castle and couldn't afford to repair it. Finally, he proposed to donate the castle to their country in the name of a historical site, which met with strong official opposition."
When he said this, Lin Mengjia couldn't help but laughed out loud, paused, and then continued: "The official financial resources of their small country are also limited, and of course they are not willing to take over this hot potato. Both parties After wrangling for a long time, the country finally changed the law and allowed it to be sold to other countries, so this castle was bought by a wealthy businessman from China. Guess who this person is?"
Lin Mengjia looked at Tang Feng with a somewhat mysterious smile on his face.
Tang Feng smiled helplessly and said: "There are so many rich people in China, how could I know? It can't be your Lin family, right?"
Lin Mengjia hurriedly shook his head and said: "Of course not. Back then, the trade between China's inland areas and Western countries was not as convenient as it is now, especially real estate such as castles, which were even more troublesome to trade. The Chinese businessman was Ye The head of the family is Chu Chu’s grandfather.”
Tang Feng said "Oh" and nodded.
At that time, trade between the inland and the West was not very frequent, but as Xiangjiang, it had unique conditions due to its unique geographical location and various reasons.
"The old man of the Ye family is considered to be very business-minded. He bought this castle not for his own residence, but after repairing it, he built an exhibition hall for the collection in the castle and opened it as a tourist attraction. People are allowed to visit for a fee, and the rooms in the castle retain their previous style and are converted into hotels to accommodate tourists. It really attracted a lot of people and made a lot of money. Later, many people imitated his example, which led to some castles in the West being revived."
While speaking, Lin Mengjia glanced at the screen again and said: "It seems that the Ruan family's wealth is quite rich. The annual repair cost of his castle is equivalent to Chinese coins. It’s nearly 10 million. He also has a hobby of collecting. He can often be seen at major auctions around the world. In addition to charity, his annual expenses are over 100 million.”
Indeed, from the combination of the videos of various interviews, Ruan Kande's castle covers a considerable area, and the layout of the furnishings inside is extremely elegant. Every mural hanging on the wall is Worth a fortune.
The entire castle did not appear to be dilapidated in any interview, which shows that it has always been repaired without interruption. This is indeed a huge expense.
Ruan Kangde has a foundation to manage the family's property for him.
Generally speaking, many large Western families do not run their own operations, but are managed in the form of foundations, and these foundations can indeed provide such nobles with considerable wealth gains.
However, with Ruan Kangde's way of spending money, can his foundation really make so much money?
