Chapter 319

"Whether their relationship is good or not has nothing to do with me," William squinted and said, "Is the ownership of the Cavelin family's Si Che Castle and all the items in the castle in the hands of the bank?"

"Yes, sir, the ownership is in the hands of the Bank of France, and the price is about 160 million U.S. dollars, and the Castle of Siche is also part of the northern corner of the Chantilly Castle complex."

"Chantilly Castle? Help me ask if the entire Chantilly Castle is for sale?"

"I'm sorry, sir, I don't think anyone dares to sell Chantilly Castle. You should give up your mind. The reason why Si Che Castle can be sold is because this castle has always been owned by Ms. Cavelin's family, and it is not as good as Chantilly Castle. Separated by adjacent lakes, not connected together".

"Ask, there is no loss for people to ask." William pouted, "As long as they are willing to sell the price to be negotiable, and then tell the people at the Bank of England and my personal lawyer Anthony, I will become the owner of Siche Castle today. ".

"Well, sir, although I think you are wasting your energy."

After taking a nap, William got up and walked to the parking lot to drive to France. Two and a half hours later, in the Chantilly area north of Paris, outside the Château de Scher, William got off the car and Anthony, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward immediately. Help William open the car door.

"Good afternoon, boss, the contract is ready, you only need to sign this document, and the 230-year-old Si Che Castle is yours."

He took the document from Anthony, put on special glasses and scanned it, and soon told William on Sunday that the document was fine, and signed his name on the document with the gold pen that Anthony handed over.

"Congratulations, Boss, I will contact Miss Abigail about receiving the collection in the castle. After the appraisal, should I send it back to England or stay here?"

After Anthony finished speaking, there was a quarrel in French. William turned around and saw a beautiful woman arguing loudly with several men in suits tens of meters away from him.

"Ship it back," finished speaking to Anthony, and William looked at the man in his 50s who had been standing a few meters away from him.

"Hello, Mr. Devinhill, I am Pierre, the general manager of the Bank of France. I am very glad that you can invest in France." Pierre shook hands with William, and then said with a slightly embarrassed face,

"Sorry, sir, that Miss Caveline Russell is the daughter of the former owner of this castle, I didn't expect her to make trouble at this time, but don't worry,

It's useless for her to make trouble anymore. The complete ownership of this ancient castle was already in the hands of our bank in June this year. ha, huh? "

Pierre paused for a few seconds in case William was from England and was not used to counting in hectares, "You are the owner of the 2,966-acre castle."

William nodded, "I have no doubts about this, but, Mr. Pierre, are there still people living in this castle? I don't want to have to deal with historical issues with the former owner after buying it."

"No, don't worry, we have arranged for the family of the former owner of the castle in a small villa in Paris." Pierre pointed to a departing ambulance lane, "That ambulance came to pick up Cavelin's grandmother. of".

"That's good." William squinted at Pierre and said, "Can you tell me whether the entire Château de Chantilly is owned by your bank?"

"This, this." Pierre looked at William in surprise. Before that, he thought that Anthony and the people from the Bank of England were joking, and he didn't believe that anyone would want to buy Chantilly Castle in a whimsical way.

"Don't doubt, I do have the intention to buy the entire place. The problem now is the ownership of the Château de Chantilly." William smiled and looked at the disbelieving Pierre, "If it is in the hands of your bank, you have Are you planning to sell it?"

"Mr. Devinhill, are you sure you are not joking, this is a building complex comparable to the Louvre, this joke is not funny at all, and even if we want to sell, all the people in France will not agree." Pi El nervously wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"So the ownership is indeed in the hands of your bank, not the French government?"

Pierre nodded blankly.

Chapter 451: The Sincerity of 5 Billion Dollars

Seeing Pierre nodding, Willemmy felt secretly relieved. Fortunately, this is the film world, and the ownership of Chantilly Castle is in the hands of the bank. If it was in the hands of the state, he would not even have the chance to make an offer. "How much?"

"What?" Pierre looked at William in shock. He didn't expect him to speak so bluntly. William dared to ask the price. Aren't you afraid that the whole French will boycott him?

"How much do I ask you?" William stared at Pierre's glasses and asked word by word.

"God, I can't answer you." Pierre clutched his chest, a little out of breath, "Although this is the Chantilly district, in my opinion, only 7,800 hectares, 19,266 acres of land can be worth it." 1 billion US dollars, can you really accept this price?"

"Huh?" William calculated in his mind, "$520,000 per acre is indeed a bit expensive."

Pierre nodded in agreement, he didn't want to offend William, a super client, because of this matter.

"However, I can still accept this price. Tell me, whether you will make an offer or not, I only care about this now."

"I don't know. Before today, if anyone asked me whether the Chateau Chantilly would be sold, I would definitely think he was crazy, but this person is you, God, I really don't know."

Pierre shook his head blankly, thought for a moment and advised, "Mr. Devinhill, personally, I strongly suggest you not to buy it.

Because the annual maintenance cost of this ancient castle is more than 30 million U.S. dollars, and it is a cultural relic building from the 15th to 17th centuries. After you buy it, there is no way to carry out modern decoration. This ancient castle is not suitable for living at all. There are so many You might as well build a bigger and more luxurious manor than this one with less money."

"Haha", William smiled crookedly, "It's up to me whether to buy it or not, or if I deposit 5 billion dollars in your bank as sincerity, you have a board meeting to discuss it?"

"Sincerely depositing 500,000,000 U.S. dollars?"

It’s not that Pierre has never seen money. On the contrary, as the general manager of the Bank of France, he has seen tens of billions of dollars in single sums, but the fact that a private person deposited 5 billion dollars in their bank casually still shocked him. Shaking hands and sweating.

What's more, this person is William who is ten years younger than his son.

"Okay, okay, dear sir, I, I, I will go back and discuss it now." After speaking, Pierre staggered and walked to his hands.

"Hey," Anthony felt relieved when he saw the big French rooster who was proud of him before, "boss, Pierre is right. This kind of building is really not suitable for living. Are you really going to buy this building?" ".

"Isn't that okay? Not moving the structure doesn't mean that you can't carry out electrification and appropriate renovations. Which of these buildings has not been modified, or where did the electric lights and bathrooms come from?"

Anthony thought, "That's true, but with such a big palace, don't you feel flustered because it's too big?"

"You're not me," William said to Anthony with a smile, "and at this time in Europe, apart from the high-tech and Internet industries, any other legitimate business can't compare to investing in land and antiques. Believe it or not, it will take less than fifteen years here The land will increase tenfold.

If you have spare money, you can also buy some antiques and keep them, preferably antiques from the Celestial Dynasty. After ten years, the five-fold increase is the same as playing.”

"Understood," Anthony grinned, "I'll find His Royal Highness Wilson when I get back."

"It seems that Wilson's antique business is going well," William laughed.

Seeing that Pierre ignored her, Caveline Russell, who was in the distance, gave instructions to the people in the bank and left in the car, and immediately pointed her finger at William.

He walked over angrily, but before he got close, he was stopped by Anthony's men and bodyguards, and he shouted anxiously, "Let go of me, touch me again, and I will report to the police that you are molesting."

At this time, three men and two women came out of the castle holding dozens of balloons. Seeing Cavelin yelling, they hurriedly protected her behind her.

When a helper came, Cavelin immediately became impatient and shouted at William, "William Devonhill, you are a robber, you are as much a robber as Pierre,

That old bastard promised me that he would keep the castle for 5 years so that I could buy it back, and now within 2 months of his promise, the old bastard will sell it to you, a robber."

After being scolded by a beautiful woman as a robber, William asked Anthony in surprise, "Do all French people do this?"

Anthony shrugged, "They are a group of Gallic roosters, boss, if you get in touch with them a lot, you will understand how arrogant and rude these people are."

"Arrogance?" Looking at the angry Anthony with contempt, he laughed, "It seems that you are really angry with that old Pierre. Speaking of arrogance, doesn't that describe the English?"

"No, no, boss, your opinion is outdated. There was a survey last year. We English people were rated as conservative and funny. Arrogance is a thing of the past,"

Anthony disagreed, and then smiled as he remembered something, "But in the eyes of reporters, you are synonymous with arrogance."

"Fuck you", Anthony gave Anthony a blank look, and suddenly noticed the big cock-shaped balloons in the hands of the two Asian women next to Cavelin, and couldn't help but think of several images in his mind.

"Now everything in this castle is mine."

"Of course, boss, the contract has been signed, and the 1.6 billion US dollars has also been transferred to a specific account at the Bank of France, just waiting for us to call the experts of the Bank of France for the antiques and other valuable items in the memorandum,
