We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?
Chapter 270 Sudden strength (page 12)
The whole dinner didn't last long, it was over in two hours.
It's not that Luo Nianzhong is in a hurry to see off the guests, but that the big shots in Downing Street know the purpose of today's banquet and don't want to disturb them here any more.
So when the banquet was almost in progress, these people left in a very sensible manner, and the last ones left were those who were in the private room last time.
In a lounge in the manor, when Luo Nianzhong came in after seeing off the guests, these old guys were already smoking, chatting and laughing.
“Luo, you still have a lot of good red wine here.
For the 82 Latour, everyone said that last year's Bordeaux was a year blessed by God. I didn't expect the quality to be so good.
No wonder the two major wineries under your name restricted the sale of last year’s red wine, and are also actively purchasing last year’s red wine from other wineries.”
Cavendish, the old man who has been thinking about YDD from beginning to end, really loves wine as much as his life.
But Luo Nianzhong liked his shamelessness the most. He was so rude after getting to know him.
This kind of personality makes Luo Nianzhong very relaxed and seems informal in interactions.
Just like now, the old man saw that there were many good wines in his wine cellar, especially several bottles of his favorite Patrus that were hard to find on the market.
The old guy didn't mean to be polite at all and opened several bottles in succession.
Anyway, there were so many people drinking, so he just had a taste of them all.
When Carson came to ask Luo Nianzhong for instructions, and after Cavendish's visit to his wine cellar was acquiesced, the old guy even had the idea of robbing Luo Nianzhong while standing in his wine cellar.
Luo Nianzhong's wine cellar contains almost all first- and second-level wineries and red wines of good vintages, except for Latour and Patrus.
YDD has a dedicated team responsible for purchasing wine, and one of their responsibilities is to help Luo Nianzhong purchase red wine.
This time Carson contacted the two major wineries and was told that YDD had a batch of newly acquired red wines of good vintages stored with them.
After Carson and Luo Nianzhong asked for instructions, they ordered a few boxes of each red wine to be taken back to Enron Manor.
Many people may not know that red wine is one of the most valuable items in the world. Luo Nianzhong's purchase of a large amount of red wine can be considered an investment in addition to drinking it.
Just like every winery in the Bordeaux region in 82, almost one-tenth of the red wine was taken over by Luo Nianzhong.
To this end, Luo Nianzhong also built a super huge professional wine storage cellar with constant temperature and humidity at a manor in France. When completed, it will become the wine warehouse of the Luo family.
The red wine on the market has also increased a lot because of Luo Nianzhong's operation, and fewer and fewer are being sold.
From now on, Luo Nianzhong's most important job at the manor in France was to take care of the wine cellar. For this reason, Fiona hired a number of professionals to work at the manor.
Seeing Cavendish pouring many glasses of red wine on a table and tasting it over and over again, Luo Nianzhong came to him with a smile.
"If you like, I'll give you a few boxes of good wine to take away when you leave, especially the 82 Latour. You can taste it later."
"Then I'm not welcome."
After thanking him, the old guy said aggressively, "Luo, I see there are many bottles of Wine King in your cellar. How about you give me two bottles as well?".
"Didn't I just give you a few boxes?"
"You mean the 82 Latour will become the king of wine?" Cavendish said in surprise.
"Shouldn't it be right?" Luo Nianzhong nodded affirmatively.
Others don't know the evaluation results, but he knows. Among the 82 red wines, in addition to Lafite, which received a perfect score, Latour and Mouton also won the title of wine king with a perfect score.
People remember Lafite because of its publicity and the fact that it is difficult for ordinary people to have access to this level of red wine.
Look, this time Luo Nianzhong will make Latour and Lafite equally famous or even surpass Lafite, becoming the most widely spread red wine.
Cavendish thought about the 82 Latour he had just tasted, and nodded in recognition of Luo Nianzhong's confidence.
"It seems that I will also stock up on a batch of 82 red wine. This is truly a legendary vintage."
After chatting with Cavendish, Luo Nianzhong sat in the host's seat. Carson poured him a cup of black tea and left. He knew that everyone had important things to talk about and it was not convenient for him to stay here.
After taking a sip of black tea, Luo Nianzhong saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him. Luo Nianzhong said calmly, "I have always been a person who values harmony and wealth, and I also believe in the principle that strong melons are not sweet.
Since we can't reach a consensus on Barclays Bank, I mean we won't be diluted."
"No more talk?"
Luo Nianzhong's words were like setting off a thousand waves with one stone. No one expected that Luo Nianzhong would immediately flip up the table.
After everyone looked at each other, it was John who spoke up and said, "Are you saying that Barclays Bank is not going down or is it our cooperation?"
"It will be all right". Luo Nianzhong said indifferently.
"If you are willing to separate Li International, we can renegotiate cooperation.
If you are not willing, then what else can we talk about? "
Luo Nianzhong's sudden toughness made these old nobles a little uncomfortable. The word "strength" used to be their monograph, but now offense and defense have been exchanged.
“Just because of the issue of Barclays Bank’s shares, will our long negotiations be in vain?
Moreover, you were talking about not less than 30% of the equity of Barclays Bank, and you did not ask for a specific number of shares.
With the cooperation plan we proposed, Far East Bank firmly controls the board of directors of Barclays Bank."
It is a firm control, but a prerequisite for this control is that all the remaining directors will not join together.
This is England, and Luo Nianzhong doesn't know how to gamble.
"I don't want to either"
Luo Nianzhong showed a helpless expression, "Both of us have reached the final stage of cooperation, and there are no secrets between us.
But as you said, this negotiation has taken too long and I don’t want to delay it any longer.
Our intention to cooperate with the Texas consortium and DuPont was almost at the same time as yours, but in the beautiful country we reached a deal easily, and here I don’t see any hope of the results I want.”
Luo Nianzhong's words made several old guys look at John.
In their opinion, the happiness of the two consortiums in the beautiful country is based on Chris, the world's richest woman, and they would be willing to do so if the same conditions were met.
But unfortunately, the only woman here who had an intersection with Luo Nianzhong was Sarah from the Spencer family, so they set their sights on John.
The ambiguity in his eyes seemed to say, "If that doesn't work, just give your daughter to someone else. If they transfer 15% of the shares in Barclays Bank they currently hold to Sarah, they can still talk."
We are all smart people, so why can’t we see the meaning behind this?
Apart from John Spencer, who was sitting there nodding and saying nothing, the only awkward person at the scene was Luo Nianzhong.
What do you mean? It's as if I'm forcing you to give Sarah to me as your mistress, but I swear to God I don't mean that.
