Chapter 270: 239, To Buy Out Miss Color's Marriage Affairs (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Yang Hao followed Huang Dazhong into the house.
Everyone took their seats around the tea table, where Huang Qing's mother, Luo Yunfang, personally prepared the tea.
"Mr. Huang, Director Zhao is a good friend of mine, and he came today to discuss some private matters," said Mr. Yang.
"Director Zhao is also aware of my company's situation, so there's no need for secrecy."
Huang Dazhong explained the presence of Zhao Yueshan and his son, but in reality, this wily old businessman simply wanted to create a situation where both parties could keep each other in check.
While the Zhao family had the pretext of discussing a marriage arrangement, it was essentially a form of business cooperation, and Zhao Yueshan had already made an offer.
He offered to invest one hundred million but wanted 70% of the shares in Dazhong Commerce and Trade, although he would only share in the profits and not get involved in management.
However, paying one hundred million for 70% of Dazhong Commerce and Trade was simply robbery in the midst of a fire!
Nonetheless, if no other funds were willing to be invested, Huang Dazhong would have no choice but to agree, because without that one hundred million, he would go bankrupt, and the assets of Dazhong Commerce and Trade would be sold off cheaply, not even worth one hundred million.
If he accepted Zhao Yueshan's terms, at least the company would be saved, meaning the majority of future profits would go to Zhao Yueshan.
Therefore, Huang Dazhong wanted this Mr. Yang that his daughter had brought along to play a role in driving up the price, hoping to lower Zhao Yueshan's offer of 70% of the shares to 50%, a number he could accept.
In Huang Dazhong's view, Yang Hao, the new owner of the Haojue Club, might not be able to come up with one hundred million in cash.
He needed money to repay loans and debts to suppliers; if he could get through this wave, the company could operate normally. Moreover, he had already negotiated with several clients from the Combat Nationality, and as long as the money came through and trade began, the company could gradually recover.
For well-known reasons, our trade volume with the Combat Nationality had surged in the past two years, and many companies involved in foreign trade were reaping substantial profits. If Huang Dazhong could overcome the current difficulties, he would also be able to enjoy this wave of benefits.
For Yang Hao, the presence of Zhao Father and Son was naturally irrelevant; after all, he was here to complete a task.
By investing in Dazhong Commerce and Trade and helping the company through its difficulties,
Yang Hao would receive a reward of "double cashback on the investment amount plus a Skill Card."
This was a premium Spending Gold Coins task, and he needed to seize it.
"Mr. Huang, I heard from Qing that Dazhong Commerce and Trade has encountered some difficulties and needs financial support. How much is needed?" asked Yang Hao directly without beating around the bush.
"It looks like Mr. Yang is a straightforward person," said Huang Dazhong.
Huang Dazhong, who had been involved in the underworld in his early years, was also known for his forthright nature. He appreciated Yang Hao's directness and immediately replied, "The company needs one hundred million!"
"If Mr. Yang is willing to invest, we can offer 40% of the company's shares at a discount."
Seeing Yang Hao as a bargaining chip, Huang Dazhong directly offered a 40% share ratio, while simultaneously glancing at Zhao Yueshan out of the corner of his eye.
The latter was calmly drinking tea, as if he hadn't heard Huang Dazhong's words at all.
He, too, was a seasoned player in the business world and could easily guess Huang Dazhong's thoughts. He even thought that Yang Hao was an actor brought in by Huang Dazhong just to drive up the price.
Therefore, Zhao Yueshan remained very calm, with a faint smile on his plump face, and even quietly remarked that the tea was good.
His son, Zhao Jinlong, looked on with a grimace, his gaze shifting back and forth between Yang Hao and the woman he loved, trying to figure out what their relationship was.
However, his eyes lingered more on Huang Qing, as she was dressed too provocatively that day, causing Zhao Jinlong to swallow his saliva silently several times.
"Is one hundred million enough?"
Against everyone's expectations, Yang Hao did not discuss the share distribution but asked such a question.
Huang Dazhong looked at Yang Hao with a doubtful expression. One hundred million was indeed a bit of a stretch, but it was barely enough to weather the crisis. However, if he could get an additional twenty or thirty million, that would be even better.
"Does Mr. Yang mean to invest more?" Huang Dazhong asked tentatively.
Yang Hao nodded slightly and directly expressed his thoughts, "I'll invest one hundred and fifty million for a 60% stake!"
Yang Hao currently had about one hundred and eighty million in liquid funds available. The System's cashback was based on the investment amount, so he wanted to invest more.
Since the task was to invest and help Dazhong Commerce and Trade through its difficulties, and not knowing when the System's cashback would arrive, Yang Hao decided to keep thirty million on hand for emergencies.
Then, he would cheerfully await three hundred million in cashback.
As soon as he stated his offer, everyone present was shocked.
Huang Dazhong looked at Yang Hao in amazement, thinking he had misheard. An investment of one hundred and fifty million for a 60% stake was quite fair, almost close to Dazhong Commerce and Trade's normal valuation.
This price was beyond what he had dared to even dream of because, after all, he would have had to accept Zhao Yueshan's terms of one hundred million for 70% of the shares!
For Huang Dazhong, this happiness had come too suddenly!
Zhao Yueshan, who had been calmly drinking tea, was also stunned. He placed his teacup on the tea table and looked at Yang Hao seriously...
Had Huang Dazhong overacted with this hired actor?
Zhao Yueshan always thought that Yang Hao was a shill Huang Dazhong had brought in, but the starting bid was a bit outrageous.
If he had said one hundred million for 50% of the shares, Zhao Yueshan would have found it more reasonable.
An offer of one hundred and fifty million for 60% of the shares seemed over the top!
Too exaggerated!!
Huang Qing too was astonishingly looking at Yang Hao, whose help she had secured although he hadn't promised to assist, merely stating a desire to speak with her father.
