Chapter 242: Old treacherous and cunning
Okubo said very calmly: "It doesn't matter if I don't know, as long as someone knows!" After speaking, he grabbed the phone on the table and dialed it out after pressing the button, and only said one sentence: "There is a visitor at home, come to the study as soon as possible!" He hung up the phone.
It didn't take long for an old man in his sixties and seventies, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, knocked on the door of the study and walked in, directly ignoring Sakura and Wu Liang, and respectfully bowed to Okubo Kaoru at a ninety degree: "Young Master Kaoru, do you tell me something?" ”
It is really wrong to ask an old man who is four or five times his age to give a salute!
Under the disdainful gaze of Wu Liang and Sakura, Okubo's face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly picked up the old man who saluted him, and complained: "Grandpa Kato, how many times have you said it, you must not bow like this when your family meets, it will make others misunderstand!" Turning his head back, he began to explain to Wu Liang and the others: "Grandpa Kato has been serving as the housekeeper of the Okubo family since my grandfather was in charge, although he has been persuaded many times, but the old man is very stubborn, and has been insisting on his orderly and respectful and inferior style, or the old man will start to be anxious if he doesn't follow his set." ”
"Misunderstanding what? The old decay is a salute to the current head of the Okubo family, who can find fault with it? Young Master Kaoru, may I ask why you called the old man here? Is it that those miscellaneous things have come to the door to make trouble again? Old man Kato was very dissatisfied with Okubo's explanation, and stared at Wu Liang and the two with a blowing beard.
It has entered the new century, and it is really speechless that there are still such old-fashioned people.
"Grandpa Kato, these two are not here to make trouble today! They're here to ask about the transfer of our Odaiba on the sea, so tell them about it! ”
"Odaiba? Could it be that the two of you are interested in that Odaiba? As soon as he heard that he was not here to make trouble, but to come to discuss big business, the old man suddenly became kind, and said to Okubo: "Young Master Kaoru, please lend me the key left by the master!" ”
Getting the key, Old Man Kato didn't shy away from it, and in front of Wu Liang and Sakura, he opened a large safe under the bookcase opposite, took out a huge folder and a few rolls of maps, patted off the thick dust on it, and put it on the coffee table.
Knowing that the next thing to talk about was whether the Okubo family could continue to exist, Granny Takahashi wiped away the tears that had fallen from the corners of her eyes, gave a pot of black tea and some snacks, and quietly retired.
"Since the two of you came to inquire about the transfer of the seventh platform, you must have already gone to check it on the spot, right? I beg your pardon for the presumptuous question below, but what do you two think of the current state of the seventh platform? Although he is old-fashioned by nature, Mr. Kato still has a very good set of skills in business conversation, so he first threw the problem to Wu Liang.
Picking up the black tea and blowing it, and drinking it a little, Wu Liang commented very unceremoniously: "Judging from the current situation, it should be polite to say that it is half-dead, and there is only one way to die without a large amount of money invested in the seventh stage!" ”
"Well said! Although I don't want to admit it, the current situation of the seventh platform is really the only way left to wait for death! ”
Wu Liang's reaction to such a spicy comment surprised Wu Liang, and he actually recognized it very simply, isn't it that he is not afraid that he will not be able to reduce the price? Or is it that the broken jar is going to be repaired from somewhere else? Wu Liang, who didn't know why, chose to be silent.
"The seventh platform is the result of Kenichiro's original efforts to revitalize the family, but when Nai's luck was not good, he just caught up with the global financial crisis, and several old banks with my Okubo family collapsed one after another, and the family's capital chain was broken, and the plan to continue development became a bubble, so I had to maintain the status quo and have been delayed." Old man Kato spoke in a heavy tone about the development of the seventh platform.
Wu Liang was not in the mood to listen to these bad things about other people's Chen sesame and rotten grains, so he took the opportunity of Old Man Kato to pause and interrupted: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry for your family's misfortune, but shouldn't we get down to business---- like why don't we get an offer first? ”
"Young people just can't hold their breath, okay! Let's get straight to the point. With a broken thought in his mouth, Old Man Kato opened the folder and took out a document that was already a little yellowed and handed it over.
I don't know if it's his own delusion, Wu Liang seems to have noticed that a fine light has just flashed in Old Man Kato's eyes.
Carefully took the document, for fear that it would look like some history would be broken in his hands, Wu Liang blew off the dust attached to the paper and took a closer look.
The document records the overall plan for the renovation and expansion of the seventh platform, and a very clear number is marked in a prominent place at the end of the document, covering a total area of ---- 226,800 square meters after expansion.
Old man Kato ate a few biscuits with warm tea, and said slowly: "The total area of the seventh platform is not small, and if the young man wants to buy them all, it will be a lot of money!" In addition, the follow-up investment will not be much less than the money to buy the land, and the pressure on the capital flow is not small, right? But don't follow in our footsteps! After taking a slow sip of hot tea, he continued: "I have a plan for collaborative development, I can sell you most of the plots of land on the island cheaply, and our Okubo family only has some corners, do young people have time to listen to it in detail?" ”
No wonder he showed weakness when he came up, it turned out that he was waiting for himself here! Wu Liang was keenly aware of what this old ghost was planning in his stomach, isn't the so-called collaborative development plan planning to borrow his own cash flow to revitalize the current dead end! The idea is good, but my own calculations are not at all about pre-development and making money, so don't work in vain.
Gently flicking the few pages of white paper in his hand back to the table, Wu Liang also picked up the black teacup, and bluntly extinguished the ambition of Mr. Kato's backdoor listing: "Old man, I look a little ugly, and I never like to cooperate with others, firstly, I am afraid that someone will drag my feet, and secondly, I don't like someone to hitchhike, you understand what I mean, right?" ”
The ambition was shattered in front of him, and the old man Kato was not annoyed, but said happily: "Since this is the case, the old man has no choice but to give a quote with a cheeky face." Although it is located in a remote area, it is also the core area in the urban area of the bed owner city, so how about we settle it according to the average transfer price of commercial land in the city in the first half of this year? Ports, power stations, cold storage and other supporting facilities can be given away for free! ”
