Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System-Chapter 413: A Trip to Africa for Fun
"You’re nuts!" Jiang Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Did Fang Jueyu really buy the whole company just so she could have time to travel?
Spending that kind of money, Jiang Yi could live extravagantly for dozens of lifetimes without working!
The most important thing was, Jiang Yi’s company was a publicly traded company. Even to acquire shares, it had to be done through the stock market, right? The market had already closed by now, so how did he manage to buy their company?
Little did Jiang Yi know, Fang Jueyu could find all the information of the company’s shareholders in just a second. Even though the stocks were still in the market, as long as the money was settled and the agreements signed, the stock market could open the next day, and they could use these share transfer agreements to acquire them.
Although the company didn’t technically belong to Fang Jueyu yet, in practice, it was already his private property. As for notifying people, the previous shareholders got double the value of their shares, so of course, they were willing to help Fang Jueyu arrange things for such a small matter.
They just found it very strange why Fang Jueyu would be interested in their small company. If nothing went wrong, Fang Jueyu probably had numerous import-export companies under his name; how could their small business catch his attention?
It wasn’t until Fang Jueyu told them he bought the company to give a classmate a break to travel abroad for a few days that the shareholders were utterly dumbfounded.
Spending tens of billions of US Dollars to buy a company just so one new employee could have a seven-day vacation? What kind of God-like operation was this?
They had heard of Fang Jueyu spending money without blinking, and they even heard that back when Fang Jueyu acquired Tencent, it was just because he didn’t like their game and wanted to create his own game. But this reason once again overturned their understanding.
He’s truly a prodigal son!
"What about Zhang Meng and the others?" Jiang Yi didn’t actually know how Fang Jueyu dealt with those shareholders, but knowing Fang Jueyu’s character, it probably wasn’t very low-key.
"Oh, Zhang Meng’s hospital is a private hospital; I bought it too. Shao Zhou’s internet company, I bought that as well. I’ve handled their holidays too. You guys pack up, and we’ll leave the day after tomorrow!"
"I suspect there’s something wrong in your head!" Jiang Yi rolled her eyes over the phone. "Fang Jueyu, you can’t spend money like this even if you’re rich, right? If we take a few more days off, at most it would only deduct half a month’s salary, maybe a few thousand RMB. How much do you plan to spend on this?"
"Not much, just under a hundred billion US Dollars!" Fang Jueyu said as if he were talking about a hundred bucks.
"Under a hundred billion..." Jiang Yi’s mouth twitched slightly. It’s doubtful if they could earn ten million in their lifetime.
"It’s fine; I’ve evaluated the assets and products of those companies. It isn’t a loss to buy them, and if I fiddle with them a bit, I can soon earn back the money spent on acquiring the companies and still make a profit!"
Heck, with Xiao Yi, the superintelligent system, around, it’s hard even to lose money. Any advanced product could make Fang Jueyu rake in a fortune.
"I’m in awe of you!" Jiang Yi was left speechless for a moment, but getting a longer break to play and getting a promotion and a raise made her secretly delighted in her heart.
"So where do you want to go?"
"I’ve been to Europe, been to America, even wandered through Antarctica; how about we go to Africa this time?" Fang Jueyu thought for a moment and got an idea, "Africa’s deserts and South Africa’s coasts are pretty famous. If you’re brave enough, we can even venture to the Cape of Good Hope!"
"Africa... are you crazy, Fang Jueyu?" Jiang Yi said.
"Why? What’s wrong?"
"Africa is so tense right now, and you still want to go there for fun? Aren’t you afraid of getting shot down halfway there?"
"Huh?" Fang Jueyu looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"Host, I told you to watch the news and keep an eye on international affairs. Africa is fighting wars lately, with many places engulfed in flames." frёeωebɳovel.com
"Is that so?" Fang Jueyu really hadn’t heard about it, only knowing that Iran and the United States were at loggerheads.
"Recently, several large diamond mines and a gold mine, and an oil field have been discovered on a disputed land in Africa, with considerable value. Several nearby countries are fighting fiercely for ownership of these mines. Even federal intervention is struggling."
Data related to this appeared in front of Fang Jueyu’s eyes.
"Huh? Weren’t the mines in Africa managed by my stepmom? They dare to seize our family’s stuff? Do they have a death wish?" Fang Jueyu frowned.
"Host, your family eating the meat still has to leave others to sip some soup, right? Although the African mines belong to your family, managing them is quite tricky. The mistress has handed over the mining and development rights of those mines to each country, and she only collects the money. Those countries are just intermediaries earning a bit of margin."
"Well, then, what are they fighting for if they’re ultimately working for us?"
"A bit of water trickling through your family’s fingers is enough for these African countries to use for several years. Just holding the mining rights in their hands, apart from the part handed over to your family, still makes a considerable income. Of course, they would fight for it."
"Let them fight their battles. What does it have to do with us? As long as we avoid those countries, aren’t we all good?" Fang Jueyu said casually.
"It’s not possible; those countries are located on common flight paths. To fly there, you’d have to pass through their airspace. If you’re mistaken for enemy fighter jets, that’s no joke."
"Just ask you one thing, is there a way to solve it?" Fang Jueyu got tired of arguing with Xiao Yi.
"Of course, as I said, there’s no place on Earth you can’t go to, Host. If you’re planning on going, just let Miss Zhuang arrange it, and she’ll take care of all safety matters."
"Then there’s no problem!" Fang Jueyu snapped his fingers.
"Jiang Yi, it’s settled then. I’ll send someone over to collect your documents in a bit. The day after tomorrow morning, I’ll have someone pick you all up, and we’ll head over in my private jet. As for safety, you all don’t need to worry. I’ll have everything arranged!"
Before Jiang Yi could say anything else, Fang Jueyu directly hung up the call.
"Thank goodness little grandpa here is smart enough to think of a plan quickly, otherwise that demoness Jiang Yi would surely tear me apart!"
Fang Jueyu took out his phone and dialed Zhuang Ying’s number, "Hey, Little Ying? Can you help me with something? I’m planning to go to Africa with a few high school classmates the day after tomorrow."
"Young master, Africa isn’t too peaceful lately!"
"Oh, it’s fine, I know about it, but small stuff like this shouldn’t be a problem for you, right?" Fang Jueyu said with a grin.
"Hahaha, young master, you’re underestimating your own power," Zhuang Ying laughed, "With just one command from you, the Buriquis family in Africa could dispatch hundreds of fighter jets to escort you!"
"Since that’s the case, I’ll trouble you then. The ones coming along this time are my classmates, so make sure to arrange things properly. Let’s not lose face!"
"Yes, young master, I’ll make arrangements according to the highest standards for you!"
