"Why don't you go sit inside? I just bought the best Jamaican Blue Mountain." Johnny called the waiter to come over and watch the cashier for him, and took Yang Cheng to the office inside.

Walking all the way in, I found that the layout of the video store was a little different from what I had in mind. I couldn't help but wonder, "Johnny, have you renovated it?"

Johnny pushed open the office door and said without looking back, "No, the shelves have been changed to make it easier for customers to choose. Come in and wait for me."

Seeing Johnny holding the coffee cup and about to go out again, he quickly stopped him and said, "No, Johnny, you know I don't like coffee very much, just give me a glass of water."

Americans are very direct. If you say you don't want it, you don't want it. They won't shirk anymore. They poured water in a disposable paper cup and put it in front of Yang Cheng. He sighed, "Oh... to be honest Jason, I found that I am not suitable for business."

.”

"Why do you say that? I have made a lot of money in the past few years, and I am a little envious." Yang Cheng was a little surprised, loosened his tie, unbuttoned the top button, and breathed a sigh of relief. He was still not used to wearing a suit.

feeling.

Johnny raised his hand and touched his bald head, laughing at himself, "I was very lucky in those years. First I won the lottery, then I went to Las Vegas and made money playing slot machines. Now that my luck is gone, I just

I found that what suits me best is to buy a pasture to raise cattle and herd sheep, the kind of work that doesn’t require too much brainpower.”

Yang Cheng couldn't help laughing, "Your money is enough for you to live happily for a lifetime."

Johnny did not shy away from this and nodded proudly, "That's right, but I can't sit still and still want to do something."

"Okay, Johnny, let's be honest. Did you call me here to terminate the contract?" Yang Cheng was not interested in hearing his life plan and went straight to the point.

"Yes, I am not going to execute the last year of the contract. I came to you just to discuss the issue of liquidated damages..."

Yang Cheng sneered in his heart, "I thought this old guy had changed his gender, but it turns out he was playing the emotional card with me."

"You know Johnny, business is business. If you breach the contract, you will have to pay liquidated damages. There is no room for negotiation." Yang Cheng's words were very blunt, leaving no room for Johnny's imagination.

Sure enough, when it came to his own interests, the old guy returned to his true colors as a gangster, with a very ugly expression on his face, "Jason, don't hold your tongue, how about you listen to my proposal first and then make a decision?"

Yang Cheng raised his hand noncommittally.

"I will close my business at the end of the year. How about I pay you three months' rent as liquidated damages, which is US$7 million?"

"Not very good. This proposal is absolutely terrible. Johnny, I suggest you study mathematics carefully. You can't even understand such a simple account. According to the contract, the liquidated damages are one full year's rent, which is three thousand and thirty.

It's over tens of thousands of dollars. I won't take any fractions of it. I'll make it up to 30 million dollars.

And even if I agree, the three-month rent should be 7.6 million U.S. dollars, not 7 million U.S. dollars. 600,000 is not a small amount. It is enough for me to buy a Lamborghini, not to mention that I don’t agree." Yang Cheng smiled.

He stood up and spoke without a smile, not caring about Johnny's clenched fists.

It's not that Yang Cheng is cruel, but he respects the contract. If the difference is only a few months, then Yang Cheng will also care about the cooperation and will not ask for liquidated damages. But the other party now demands to terminate the contract a year and a half in advance, and it is so sudden. Where can he find a new one?

As a tenant, if it stays vacant for a year and a half, won’t he pay a lot of money?

Which one is more important, face or 30 million US dollars a year? Fools all know how to choose. How much face is worth? At worst, you will pretend that you don’t know the other person in the future, but you can’t lose even one cent of money.

This is not an apartment of tens of square meters. A single contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars is nothing to play with.

He took two steps forward, patted Johnny on the shoulder, and said calmly, "I suggest you stick to it. More than a year will pass quickly. Even if the business is in a downturn, you can still recover some costs. In the end

Losing money is better than paying liquidated damages.

Otherwise, you can bring me a new tenant and sublet your contract. Anyway, these are the two options. Think about it carefully and give me a call after you have considered it carefully."

Yang Cheng's advice is true. If you keep doing it, even if you lose only a few million dollars, it's better than wasting 30 million dollars. This shows that his heart is still very 'kind', huh.

..Just listen seriously!

I woke up in the morning and went out without eating breakfast. Now my stomach was growling. I was about to call Megan and ask me to come out to eat with him, but my phone rang first.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Yang Cheng sat in the car and answered the phone.

"Well, I have something to do with you. Where are you?"

"I just came out of the store and am looking for a place to eat." Yang Cheng said.

"Oh, that's just right. Come to the company, have lunch together, and talk about some things by the way."

Yang Cheng still wanted to have sex with Megan for the second time, but her father called her and she had to go, which was a pity.

"Okay, I'll be there in a moment."

Start the car, turn around and drive towards Wall Street, where the headquarters of Yuanshan Capital is located.

Wall Street is located in the XC area of ​​Manhattan, extending from Broadway Avenue to the East River. It is only one-third of a mile long, or more than 500 meters, and only 11 meters wide. The streets are narrow and short, but it is the financial center of the United States and even the world.

Center, here is located the headquarters of America’s oldest family consortium, as well as the location of famous stock exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq.

Different from the bustle and bustle in movies and TV, this place seemed very quiet. A few Wall Street elites took advantage of their lunch break to take to the streets to breathe fresh air, but Yang Cheng only saw numbness on their faces, but it happened to be...

The tour group visited this legendary street under the guidance of a tour guide. The faces of the tourists were full of admiration and admiration. Among them, Yang Cheng found that most of them had yellow skin and secretly guessed whether they were fellow tourists.

Opening the car window, I don't know if it's due to the weather or his imagination, but I always feel that the air here is a bit cold. No wonder in the Wall Street clips in movies and TV shows, people always wear suits and windbreakers and walk in a hurry against the cold wind. This place is selfish.

Only interests and no emotions at all.

I curled my lips and realized that Wall Street is not as beautiful as imagined only if I have been here personally.

He sighed and parked the car in front of an old office building with more than 20 floors. Old does not mean that the building is dilapidated, but that most of the buildings on Wall Street were influenced by the decorative art of the Gilded Age.

Yang Cheng was a little uncomfortable with the modern glass structure building because it was too cold and dark.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the breeze is blowing up the fallen leaves, which makes it feel quite desolate.

I sent a message to my dad, and without waiting, the passenger door was opened.

"You can eat by yourself, I may be back later in the afternoon." Yang Cheng heard his father instruct his assistant Elena, a beautiful woman with Eastern European descent, with a very sweet appearance, black hair and black eyes, in line with the aesthetics of Eastern people.

Yang Cheng leaned over and nodded and smiled at Elena. She was wearing an OL uniform and black stockings that highlighted her slender figure. Even if such a woman is incompetent, she should be kept as a vase. When she is tired from work, looking at beauties is eye-catching and can relieve her mental stress.

, as for... ahem, I won’t say anymore, I’ll think about it myself.

“Where to eat?”

"Go to Water Street, there is a good Italian restaurant there." Yang Sen said, looking at the interior of the car.

"How do you drive this car? I haven't driven it a few times since I bought it." Yang Sen asked curiously. He rarely drives now. He usually has a chauffeur-driven Bentley Mulsanne to pick him up and drop him off. This Audi S8 was bought on a whim.

It was used, but I didn’t have time to drive it after I bought it, so it was abandoned in the garage. Normally, Old John would send someone to maintain it and make it look like new.

Yang Cheng looked at the rearview mirror, waited for the car behind to pass, and turned on the turn signal to change the direction. "I came out to talk about things this morning. It's not good to drive a sports car. This car is good. It has the stability of a business car without losing the sports performance of a sports car."

, and it’s more comfortable to drive than a Ferrari.”

Indeed, generally speaking, apart from pretending to be 13, driving a sports car is not comfortable, the sitting posture is low, and the sight is not good, especially for patients like Yang Cheng who have injured their waists, it is a kind of torture. Of course, for this reason, he does not

I would say, it's so embarrassing.

Yang Sen nodded clearly, "It's really good, but the interior is too ugly."

Hearing his father and mother complaining casually, Yang Cheng laughed, "It is indeed more suitable for the elderly. It doesn't matter. I just use it occasionally."

"What were you talking about this morning?" Yang Sen asked, pointing in the direction of the hotel.

"The video store owner who rented my store, the one who won the Powerball lottery, wants to terminate the contract early and can no longer work." He followed Yang Sen's instructions and pulled the car over.

"People nowadays have no spirit of contract. If it doesn't work, don't come forward in person and let the lawyers negotiate." Yang Sen was not happy.

After getting out of the car and handing the keys to the parking boy, the father and son walked into the restaurant one after another.

"Mr. Yang, welcome." Apparently Yang Sen comes here often, and the lobby manager immediately greeted him.

"Hello, we two, the food will be served according to my reservation, please hurry up." Yang Sen walked to the reserved seat in a familiar manner.

While waiting for the food to be served, Yang Sen said to Yang Cheng, "The board of directors has approved the proposal to buy shares in Delta Airlines and has sent people to contact some small shareholders. This matter cannot be rushed. After all, it is a listed company with a market value of more than 20 billion. We don't want to alarm the public.

Shareholders can only figure it out slowly."

The two people's seats are relatively close to each other, so they don't have to worry about being heard. "I know, but the board of directors passed it so happily? No objection?"

Yang Cheng knows that the board of directors has not been peaceful recently. One of the early veterans is currently making a divorce. Listening to Yang Sen's calm words, he seems to have spent little energy.

"Who would object to making money? Don't worry, I'll take care of the company's affairs. I'm a little curious about how you got more than 1 billion in funds." Yang Sen took a piece of bread, spread it with butter, and swallowed it three times.

inside.

Yang Cheng shrugged pretending to be mysterious and changed the subject, "You called me here just to talk about this, right?"

"Of course not, it's that Louis Lehman. I received the news this morning, and I'm basically sure of that bastard's purpose. Oh, don't mention it, if it weren't for this drama, I really wouldn't have noticed that there is such a hidden thing on the other side of the Pacific.

It's a big gold mine, huh, if I don't dig him out this time, I won't be named Yang, MD, and I will try to hit me on the head, and I will live impatiently."

The father, who has always been elegant, was forced to say dirty words, which shows that he was really angry this time.

Yang Sen's sly sneer made Yang Cheng think of the fox's treacherous expression when he saw the animal world in his previous life before hunting. He shuddered subconsciously. It seemed that Louis Lehman was going to be unlucky. For him

A second of silence, maybe half a second.
