Chapter 227, the pattern is small
"Boss, I have investigated. Times Building is not involved in property rights and debt disputes. The only thing that is troublesome is that the third floor has signed a 30-year lease, and two 21-year renewals are included. It will be calculated that there are still 65 years to expire."
Three days later, Cooper called Nan Yi again.
"How many years does the rent pay? Are there any rental increase clauses?"
"The payment is once every five years, and the increase is 2% every year in the first ten years, and the increase is 5% every year starting from the eleventh year."
"So, they will be charged again after three years?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I understand. I'll call Rachel, and I'll let her take over the acquisition."
“Ok, boss.”
Hang up and Nan Yi called Rachel Palson.
"Hi Rachel."
"Hey, Adam, I called me so early, I'm working out."
"Sorry, I forgot the jet lag for a while. Otherwise, I'll call you in two hours?" Nan Yi said deliberately.
"orge on!" Rachel said: "Adam, just talk about the serious business, ok?"
"Okay, then I'll just say that Wangdefu wants to acquire Times Building. I plan to hand over this matter to you. There are three points I want to explain: First, I only plan to spend 61 million US dollars. This money includes all the costs of the acquisition, acquisition fees, taxes, transfer fees, etc., and your commission;
2. I can only take out 12 million US dollars for the down payment. If possible, the smaller the number, the better. I can pay the rest within two years. Of course, if the expenditure is not increased, the longer the time, the better, it is best..."
"Ahhh, unless all the lawyers in New York are dead," Rachel teased.
"Okay, when I didn't say that in the last paragraph, I'll tell you the third point. It's best to make all the current tenants get out. My bottom line is 1 million US dollars. If it exceeds, I can also say the third point. But I believe you will give me a perfect answer, right?"
"Adam, I'll confirm that no matter how I do it, you'll pay $1 million?"
"Yes, as long as you can handle things cleanly and not leave any troubles, then congratulations, your income this year can increase a lot."
"Very good, then I won't be angry if you disturb my fitness."
"Wow, you've let it go so easily. Shouldn't you go on a beach vacation and ask me to pay the bill, or, find an island for a week, and you and me?"
"Adam, I appreciate your confidence, but I'm sorry, you may not necessarily fit my aesthetic."
"Ha, it seems I'm going to meet you as soon as possible."
"Hmm, I'm looking forward to it."
"Goodbye, I wish you a wonderful day."
"the same as you."
Nan Yi was not worried at all that Rachel could not handle the Times Building. In fact, since the 1980s, severe stagflation occurred in countries around the world, and the unemployment rate in countries increased sharply. At the same time, a second real estate crisis broke out. Housing mortgage interest rates were increasing, up to more than 18%. People were full of resistance to buying a house.
Of course, this is the idea of personal and part of the capital. If you are interested in investing in real estate, their eyes are more on Tokyo, and they are disdainful of the buildings in New York.
The overall return on investment of real estate in China is not very high, let alone office buildings.
In fact, in 1994, the Empire State Building was sold to the Japanese Yokoi for only 42 million US dollars; in 2002, Te Pu became the agent representative of Yokoi, and sold the Empire State Building to the Empire State Building United Company, which only sold 57.5 million US dollars.
Although there is a difference of 15 million US dollars and a rent of nearly eight years, Yokoi Nakaki may not make money from the sale of the Empire State Building. You should know that the annual repair cost of the Empire State Building is not low.
Coupled with eight years of inflation, Nanyi estimated that Hokkai should have lost a lot of money in this transaction.
If Times Building is not in a special area, it can earn a considerable advertising fee every year. Nan Yi will only buy an office building in New York if he is full.
Real estate has to be done in East Asia. There is more money, less work, close to home, and it is in the interests of "most people". It's so good that it will follow the will of heaven.
After calling, Nan Yi said to Liang Huiwen, who was sitting next to him: "Huiwen, I have been leaving you with my spare time for more than two months. Is there any progress?"
"Yes, Li Dezhong's health is no longer good. I went to the hospital to inquire about it. It was the past two months. Last time I asked Li Dezhong for the price, he didn't give me a good look. He was the leader of the Li family when he was free, so he couldn't sell it.
However, I had contacted my eldest wife Guo Zhaodi and the third wife Yao Yanfen in private. They all wanted to take action, as long as the price could be negotiated."
"Tell me about Li Dezhong's family structure." Nan Yi thought for a moment and said.
"Li Dezhong, his original wife, Guo Zhaodi, and his wife, fought with him. When he had time, he was the first store. They had a son, Li Shaozhong, who was also the eldest son;
The second wife is Li Shaocong's mother Wen Yue'e. She came from the mainland in 1960s. She is very docile and capable. She is now in charge of her when she has time to sit there.
The third wife, Yao Yanfen, turned out to be a dancer in the supreme bar of Locke Road. Nan Sheng, do you know Locke Road?"
"I know that in the 1950s, American warships often docked in Kawaguchi for supplies, and Locke Road was where they were looking for fun."
"Yes, Li Dezhong used to visit her frequently, and it was easy to get along after a while. Yao Yanfen gave birth to Li Dezhong's son Li Shaoli in 57 years. She only married her when the child was six years old, so she was the third wife, but Li Shaoli was the second child."
"Birth?"
"It should be that Li Shaoli and Li Dezhong look very similar."
"Oh, you keep going."
"After Li Dezhong married Wen Yue'e, Guo Zhaodi was dissatisfied with him. Since then, she has ignored the business of the tea restaurant, and Li Dezhong handed over the financial power to Wen Yue'e.
Wen Yue'e is very business-oriented. She can build and open two branches when she has time to sit down. It can be said that she is responsible for it. Now she is in control of the store. Guo Zhaodi and Yao Yanfen can't get involved at all."
"Is this why the two of them agreed to sell?"
"Yes, Li Dezhong did not leave a will at all. He didn't say how to distribute the property, as if he was intentional."
"Do you think their family is harmonious?"
"Ha, how can three wives and three sons of different mothers be harmonious?" Liang Huiwen sneered.
"That's it. We Chinese people have always paid attention to having more children and more blessings, but if there are too many sons, they may not be filial. In ancient times, there was such a smart man who found a broken box filled with stones.
He said to his sons: 'Your father, I still have a box of silver. Whoever is the most filial, will I hand over the silver to whom I die.'
So, every son offers him delicious food and drink. Hello, I will be even better and compete with each other. In this way, this father is comfortable to live his life.
Before the last moment, Li Dezhong's life would be much better if he didn't show his trump card.
There are not many days left, and the three wives have to pretend to be filial. What if they get the favor and leave all their property to her son?"
"No, only Guo Zhaodi and Yao Yanfen are attentive, and Wen Yue'e still spends her main energy on the tea restaurant. She is still taking his son Li Shaocong to learn to manage the tea restaurant."
"Well? She is so confident that the inheritance will be left to her son?" Nan Yi paused and said, "Or, she has been in charge of the tea restaurant for so many years, and she will not panic whether the inheritance can be taken."
"I think it's possible that Wen Yue'e is in charge of the accounts herself. She said that the amount of money the tea restaurant earns is as much as it can be, and others can't check it if they want to."
"If this is the case, it would be interesting. One is fearless and the two are worried. I have contacted Li Shaocong, and I know who he is. Let me talk about Li Shaozhong and Li Shaoli."
"Li Shaozhong worked as a teacher in middle school after graduating from university. He looks a bit muted. He is 33 years old this year and has not been married and has no girlfriend. He is a very boring person."
"It's not about letting you go on a blind date."
"Uh... the point is that Li Shaozhong should not have much interest in inheriting tea restaurants. He rarely goes home when he lives outside."
"Don't have too much contact with women?"
"Then I'm not sure, the investigation is not so detailed."
"Okay, talk about Li Shaoli."
Nan Yi originally wanted to investigate whether Li Shaozhong had a tendency to gay, but it was a bit redundant when he thought about it. He just wanted to make a tea restaurant, so why did he need to use so much force?
"Li Shaoli should be the smartest among Li Dezhong's three sons, but he has a fatal weakness."
"What? Bet or sex?"
"I have both got involved. I am both a gambling ghost and a pervert. I have owed a lot of gambling debts over the years. Li Dezhong likes him and has paid them back. He has a good relationship with Du Laozhi's mom at nightclub. This mom has an old friend, a short mule, and is now studying in Stanley."
"Sijiuzi, there is no one younger brother?"
"Everyone ran away. Not to mention a big boss's relationship, they can't protect themselves."
"Then I'll send a message to the cuckold boss, saying that someone is sleeping with him, beating his son, living in his room, and spending the possessions he has saved."
"Nan Sheng, that big guy on vacation has no home to save up." Liang Huiwen rolled his eyes and said.
"No matter what, it's true that someone else is sleeping with her good looks anyway. I hope this boss won't be too slutty and can only stare at him. There is no brother who stands up for him.
Why did you sing that song? You swear to go, enter the sword mountain, be strong and pass through thousands of passes. People in the martial arts world need loyalty, how can you not help if your brothers are in trouble?"
"Nan Sheng, the clubs are all making money, so there is no loyalty at all."
"It's because of no one, and it's because of no one, how can you let go of such an opportunity to deal with a minion to show your loyalty?"
"Okay, then I'll ask someone to send a message to the boss to see if he really has a brother to stand up for him. I'm not optimistic about it." It can be seen that Liang Huiwen was not too keen on Nan Yi's sudden whim.
"Don't do this, it's a good thing, it's a matter of throwing a stone to ask for directions. But the three tea restaurants shouldn't spend so much energy on us, hurry up and get them."
"Nan Sheng, it is not difficult for us to build our own signature from scratch. Why are you so persistent when you have time?"
"I'm persistent?"
"I think so." Liang Huiwen nodded.
"Can the new store be the same as the old store? The tea restaurant does the neighborhood business. If you have time to spend more than 20 years of free time, this is a great fortune and a kind of foundation. If we can buy it at a low price, it will be a very cost-effective transaction."
"After changing the boss, how many old customers will continue to visit?"
"It depends on how we do it, inherit the original advantages, and then correct the original bad places, and improve the taste and service to the next level, and the old customers will still come to visit.
One thing that cannot be changed is that it is decoration. We still need to maintain what style and grade it turns out to be."
"I know, if the neighborhood business is too luxurious, the neighbors will not dare to come in."
"The most important thing about a small restaurant is two flavors, taste and humanity. This is easy to say, but difficult to make." Nan Yi exhaled a breath of turbid air and said, "Well, what I said, this is for? What we are going to do is not a tea restaurant.
If you have free time, you can spend a lot of flowers on business. If you go on the market early, you will be finished by cutting a few waves of leeks early. How much money can you make in a tea restaurant?
This matter will be left to you, and I will no longer worry about it later, don’t let me down.”
