In the Office of the Comptroller of the Atlanta City Government, Ms. Iseult was holding a phone and looking out the window in a daze.
"Ma'am, you look very surprised?"
Behind Ms. Iseult, a woman in business attire was making coffee on the tea table: "Is it for that Andre Lee Wildenstein?"
"Yes! He really surprised me. I didn't expect that he has grown to this extent in just a month or two."
Ms. Iseult smiled bitterly: "It may be hard for you to imagine that just a few months ago, he was still living in an apartment in the slums, which made me hesitate to lend a helping hand. But now, Atlanta has his
A place for you.”
"Of course, after I found out about it last night, I was also frightened by him."
The woman in professional attire brought the coffee to Iseult and said with a sigh: "Before, the Dragon Witch Cult retreated from Atlanta, we thought it was Mr. Dwight Payton's handiwork. But now it seems
, the situation may be different from what we imagined. Dwight is very powerful, but he cannot help him without a bottom line."
"That's what shocked me."
Iseult sat back in his office chair: "The information I received is that nearly 80% of Cardiff's military group was wiped out overnight, causing many high-level mercenaries in Atlanta to remain silent. You know what this means.
What are you wearing?"
"The force that Andre possesses is enough to protect the growth of the Rising Sun Company. I think that in the near future, this city will have an additional consortium with a scale of at least three billion gold shields. The succession competition of the Wildenstein family will also
It will change again."
The woman in professional attire pondered: "But Ms. Iseult, is it really appropriate for us to hand over the Georgia Post into his hands? I'm not saying that he is unreliable, but -"
"I understand what you mean. This will further strengthen Andre's power and cause dissatisfaction with Margaret and her two brothers. But the question is, besides him, can we find a suitable candidate? Yes.
To ensure that this media will always stand in Iseult’s camp in the future?
This person not only needs to be loyal to our friendship, but also needs enough financial resources to ensure his own safety. So, as I said, we have no choice, right? Linda, he is the child of my best friend.
I watched him grow up. At this time, do I still care about Wildenstein?"
Ms. Iseult spread her hands: "Linda, call Yves Cardiff later and tell him Andre's asking price. This is the plan that Andre and I have finalized, there is no bargaining.
leeway. If he refuses, just hang up the phone.
.After defeating Kadivin, he can still get the shares of the Atlanta Post. Also, at the fundraiser ten days later, the seats will be rearranged and Mr. Andre Lee Wildenstein will be seated.
Speaking of VIP seats – put them in the third row.”
The woman in professional attire had no objection to this. If she was just a wealthy fighting star, she would never be qualified to sit in such a front seat. But if this person, in addition to being rich and powerful, also controls the Atlanta Post,
Then the situation is completely different.

Yves Cardiff was very straightforward and conveyed his opinion through Ms. Iseult in the afternoon. Cardiff Group agreed to purchase six stores with more than 600 square meters and seven more leased for more than ten years.
The store, together with some of the decoration inside, the sales staff who are already being trained, and all electrical appliance sales contracts will be transferred to Li Mochen personally for free.
Then there is the Georgia Post's equity, which he doesn't mind transferring, but Li Mochen has to pay 60% of the market price, which is 26 million gold shields to acquire it. This was probably the same time Cadiv acquired this share fourteen years ago.
The price is high, and the money is needed to repay the loan and release the bank's pledge.
Li Mochen had already expected this. The value of these shares reached more than 40 million gold shields, and there was no way that Cadiv could transfer them for free.
The next step was nothing more than bargaining, and he finally got the price down to 16 million gold shields. Iseult called again and said that powerful people in the capital, Abraham, had expressed concern about this.
This was an obvious hint, telling him to stop. There seemed to be a good background behind the Cadiv Group.
After the signing of the 'surrender agreement', Li Mochen immediately contacted Ms. Nannette Drew. This woman had obviously been greeted by Ms. Iseult and was very impressed with taking over Richard Publishing House.
Interested. Next week at most, this lady will come to Atlanta as a guest to see what’s going on here.
As for salary and benefits, the two parties have not discussed it yet. Li Mochen has to make Ms. Drew satisfied with the working environment first.
Therefore, it is imperative to acquire the other 39% of the Georgia Post's equity.
However, based on the current profits of the Georgia Post, the value of the Georgia Post exceeds 250 million gold shields. If the influence of public opinion is also taken into account, there will be a large premium.
For 39% of the equity, the other party’s asking price of 130 million is not too much.
Li Mochen had to call his newly hired personal accountant and Li Mei over that night to help him audit the assets under his name. The first was Xuri Company, which currently has a total of eleven stores open, and another fifty
Five are under preparation. Thirty-five of them are self-purchased and the rest are leased.
The thirteen stores currently taken over by Li Mochen from Cadywin Group will also be injected into Xuri Company and become Xuri Company's outlets.
Mr. Cardiff is very discerning when it comes to location selection. The locations of these thirteen stores are all very good. Not only are they in bustling areas, but they also avoid competition with the Rising Sun Company as much as possible.
In addition, there are still twelve companies in negotiation, so they are not included.
"——Currently, all fixed assets are 92 million gold shields. In addition to the renovation costs that will be paid, the company currently has 32 million cash in its books, and 230 million in payments that have not been allocated to manufacturers.
.The current total loan amount is 35 million gold shields, but the repayment period is next year.”
As the chief financial officer of Xuri Company, Li Mei began to report on the company's situation: "Since the opening of the first nine stores, the company's daily revenue has been around 30 million gold shields, and then it has been rising in a curve, until now it has grown to daily sales.
Collecting 42 million gold shields, there have been sales of 690 million so far. If we count several African
The 50 million electrical appliances purchased by the charity from us is 740 million. And because we have signed new sales rebate supplementary agreements with several manufacturers such as Panasonic, after we have completed various tax avoidance measures,
The net profit is expected to reach 9%. In these twenty days, we have already made a profit of 62 million."
Li Mei's face was obviously flushed: "However, this phenomenon cannot last forever. We expect that one month after all the stores are opened, the backlog of demand around Atlanta will be released, and competitors will take action.
, our sales volume will definitely plummet. It is estimated that the monthly profit will be between 70 million and 90 million gold shields."
She thought that even those companies with a market value of five billion gold shields might not be able to make such high profits.
