523: Money moves people

Hearing the beeping sound from the phone, Cairfu Lehman trembled with rage.

“Fuc…fuc…k!” Cairfu Lehman was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone.

Double the profit!

If not ten trillion, couldn't you make do with five trillion?

As long as Qian Ziyong agreed, his position as the Caierfu family head would be secure.

Ah!

Cairfu Lehman clenched his fists.

No one had ever dared to hang up on him like that.

Never!

Especially people from China.

To be honest, if it weren't for Qian Ziyong, Cairfu Lehman wouldn't have cared about any of the people over there, one by one.

Even successful businessmen were far inferior when compared to his Caierfu family.

Cairfu Lehman was furious, and Marina only dared to stand far away, not even daring to approach him.

…

On the other side, Qian Ziyong hung up the phone, somewhat dejected: “No way, it’s only five trillion.”

Sun Youan stammered, “Zi…Ziyong, actually, five trillion is also acceptable.”

“If your Feihuang Group didn’t refuse loans, let alone five trillion, even if it was only two trillion, you could still accomplish ten trillion worth of work.”

“Hm?” Qian Ziyong looked up, puzzled.

Sun Youan explained, “A typical developer uses 20% of the money to buy land, and then mortgages the land to the bank.”

“After getting a loan from the bank, they build houses. When the houses are almost built with that money, they can start selling pre-sales.”

“Selling while earning, earning while selling, the money circulates in between.”

“As long as the properties sell well, it can be said there’s no risk at all.”

“So many people do business this way in real estate.” It was the first time Qian Ziyong had heard of it.

Chen Jingfu, who was nearby, said, “This is still considered good.”

“Some are even more excessive, pulling off a ‘empty-handed white wolf’ scheme, where even the 20% used to buy land is borrowed.”

Qian Ziyong asked curiously, “Won’t that cause problems?”

“What if the company’s capital chain breaks, and the developer can’t deliver the homes, then those who bought the buildings…”

Qian Ziyong didn’t continue.

Because he already knew what would happen next.

There were too many unfinished buildings.

He had once taken over an unfinished building project.

And because there were too many unfinished buildings, he thought real estate was a huge money pit project, but he made money as soon as he took over.

And he made a lot of money.

Qian Ziyong shook his head and said, “Our Feihuang Group doesn’t take loans, not a single chinese yuan.”

The system doesn’t allow loans.

Because loans carry the risk of not being repaid, and the system doesn’t allow illegal activities.

Not repaying debt is illegal.

Therefore, the system doesn’t allow loans.

Sun Youan said, “Since that’s the case, we can build a little less.”

“The biggest cost in building Feihuang Plaza is the land, and the most expensive land is in big cities.”

“As long as we build fewer Feihuang Plazas in big cities, then covering the entire country is still possible.”

Qian Ziyong's eyes lit up.

Their previous plan was to build ten in large cities like Wu City and Shen City to cover the entire city.

And in such large cities, a piece of land would cost two to three billion chinese yuan.

If they built a bit less there, and more in county towns.

A Feihuang Plaza in a county town would only cost around one billion chinese yuan.

Land there is relatively cheaper.

One or two hundred million chinese yuan can buy suitable land.

Even a better location would only be a few hundred million chinese yuan.

If five trillion chinese yuan is based on an average of twenty billion chinese yuan per Feihuang Plaza, that would be two thousand five hundred Feihuang Plazas.

It could also cover the entire country.

“Then let’s do it this way!” Qian Ziyong slammed the table and made the decision.

Qian Ziyong immediately called Cairfu Lehman.

On the other side, Cairfu Lehman was still fuming in his villa, constantly cursing Qian Ziyong.

When he heard his phone ring, he immediately looked at it.

“President Qian!” Cairfu Lehman put on a smiling face. “President Qian, what can I do for you? Please feel free to tell me anything you need.”

Qian Ziyong said, “I agree to five trillion, but I’ll only give you ten days.”

“Also, you need to give me one trillion every two days!”

“Good!” Cairfu Lehman agreed immediately, fearing Qian Ziyong might change his mind.

“Have your people bring the contract over!” Qian Ziyong hung up the phone.

Cairfu Lehman immediately said to Marina, who was beside him, “You heard that, right?”

“Immediately take the contract and go to China to find Qian Ziyong.”

“Yes!” Marina quickly opened her phone to book a flight.

Cairfu Lehman said, “Go quickly, quickly, take my private jet, don’t let Qian Ziyong change his mind.”

He knew that other families were constantly contacting Qian Ziyong, wanting to become agents for his cold medicine and Feihuang Eye Drops.

There was no other way; it was because Qian Ziyong had monopolized the cold medicine and eye drops.

And it was a monopoly that their United States couldn't sanction.

“Yes!” Marina immediately left.

Cairfu Lehman instructed another secretary to call the consortiums in various countries.

And he himself called the top ten families in the United States.

In addition, he also called some very powerful investors with large amounts of cash.

And he also called some people in power in the United States.

That evening, in the tallest building in the United States, most of the world's elite and celebrities gathered.

Those who could come here had a net worth of at least ten billion chinese yuan.

People with a net worth of less than ten billion chinese yuan were simply not qualified to sit here.

“Ralph Lehman, you urgently called us here, saying there’s feihuang cold medicine and eye drops to share?” Buken Shield · Jero said with a smile.

Other investors and politicians all looked at Cairfu Lehman.

Everyone was busy, but most of them came with just one call from Cairfu Lehman.

Not because Cairfu Lehman had that much influence.

But because Cairfu Lehman said there was a very profitable business, the feihuang cold medicine and eye drops business.

Cairfu Lehman nodded: “That’s right.”

Seeing that most people had arrived, Cairfu Lehman directly stated, “Qian Ziyong has given up 10% of the profit in exchange for five trillion chinese yuan in cash within ten days.”

Upon hearing this, Buken Shield · Jero said, “Qian Ziyong must be crazy!”

“Unless he’s selling Feihuang Eye Drops permanently, wanting to exchange 10% of the profit for five trillion? Impossible!”

Everyone else shook their heads.

Cairfu Lehman said, “Oh, I forgot to mention the unit, it’s chinese yuan.”

Upon hearing it was chinese yuan, everyone calculated in their minds and realized it was less than one trillion US dollars.

There was a huge profit in this!

Their eyes gleamed.

Cairfu Lehman said, “According to my estimate, lending money to Qian Ziyong, with an additional 10% profit, is equivalent to an annualized return of 20%.”

“I don’t want any of these annualized returns; I only want my rightful share of the profit.”

This was something he had thoroughly considered.

The profit from eye drops is very large. Qian Ziyong currently has 50% of the profit. He gets 10%, others share another 10%, plus another 10% used to smooth out various relationships.

Finally, 20% remains as cost.

If Feihuang Eye Drops could also be manipulated like the cold medicine.

Perhaps the profit would be more than 10%.
