I Am a Nobleman in England

Arthur had expected the attitude of Barclays Bank. There are some things in the world that are so magical. The more money you need, the less the bank will lend you money. If you are not short of money, they will beg you to borrow it instead. Money and time, even if you want to pay back the money, they are not happy. . .

For banks, lending abroad is actually very profitable, and there is a huge profit margin in this area. But major banks have always been cautious about lending.

In fact, it is also understandable. After all, the bank pursues safety, not only for itself, but more importantly, the bank uses the customer's deposit funds to make loans, so the bank is responsible for the deposit, so this safety is particularly important.

Banks are not venture capital institutions. What they need is not the future development of the company, but the stability of the company. They earn safe money. There is no doubt that the safety of coastal power plants can be guaranteed at present, and it will not be easy. Going out of business, so it's audacious to keep the coast power plant on that loan.

Barclays Bank does not pursue the operating efficiency of coastal power plants. They pursue their efficiency. Their efficiency means that the principal and interest can be received. Now the coastal power plant has not only increased its asset valuation by 200 million, but also has a recharge The funds undoubtedly meet the requirements of Barclays Bank, that's right.

Of course, the bank can't say that it doesn't pay attention to the efficiency of the enterprise. It's the same as now. When they learned of the change in the sale of the coastal power plant's equity, they ran faster than anyone else, and they appeared in front of Arthur immediately. But still the same sentence, the purpose of their concern is to ensure the safety of loan principal and interest. As long as the principal and interest of the loan are safe, it doesn't matter how efficient the enterprise is, and what new shareholders are added.

Besides, even if a risk does arise, the coastal power plant can still handle it relatively properly in general. After all, its asset value is there, and it is very easy to sell even if it finds a new buyer. In other words, there is a real loss It won't be too big either.

Regarding these twists and turns, Angela, who is an investment and financial consultant, has already explained to Arthur very clearly, and, to be honest, Arthur never planned to use the money earned from this sale of shares to pay off debts from the beginning.

He still needs this money to build the third phase of the project, make the books of the coastal power plant more beautiful, and prepare to go public!

As long as it can be listed, it is not trivial to pay back the money owed to Barclays?

At that time, I am afraid that if he wants to repay the money, Barclays Bank will be the same as now, unwilling to accept Arthur's early repayment.

To be honest, Arthur also wants to establish a good relationship with Barclays Bank. You know, without a strong backing and money bag, it is difficult for him to complete his energy industry layout.

What he is doing now is slowly tying Barclays Bank to his chariot bit by bit. The more money he borrows, the more ambiguous the relationship between the two parties will become. Even if you want to owe more and more money to Barclays, you will not worry if you owe more.

One owed is owed, and ten owed is owed. When the debt reaches the end, as long as the people of Barclays Bank have a headache when they see Arthur, then Arthur really wins. !

If the representatives of Barclays Bank knew that Arthur Bolling, a high-quality and large customer, was plotting against them, they wondered if they could still be the same as they are now. The representatives of the group talked and laughed happily. . .

The atmosphere in the conference room today was very relaxed and harmonious. After greeting each other, the representatives of the four parties began to get down to business. The lawyers and accountants went to the battle and began to check the content of the agreement.

A total valuation of £600 million,

A 30% stake costs 180 million pounds, and two months ago, the coastal power plant was only worth 400 million pounds, and a 30% stake only cost 120 million pounds. .

In just over 50 days, he made a net profit of 60 million pounds, which was faster and easier than robbing a bank.

Except for the lawyers and accountants of the three parties who are busy in the conference room, everyone else looks at the boss chair from time to time, holding a coffee cup and drinking coffee elegantly, still with a hint of greenness on his face. Smiling young earl.

Under the gaze of all kinds of emotions, Arthur did not feel uncomfortable. If you want to become a strong man, be noticed by everyone, be discussed by others, and be slandered by others, this is something that must be experienced. How to scold, he can't even look at it, he doesn't need to care about other people's thoughts at all, as long as he knows what he wants firmly in his heart, the only thing he has to do is to use his own ability to conquer the world, to tell Those who look down on him, slander him, and ridicule him are all blind!

"Boss, it's alright..."

About half an hour later, the Coast Power Plant's lawyer walked up to Arthur and bent down to whisper the report in his ear.

"En." Arthur nodded, with a bright smile on his face, and said to Wu Qiang of Quanta Group and the eldest son of Changshi Group who had also been reported by his lawyer: "Mr. Wu, Mr. Victor, if there is no objection, we We can start signing the agreement."

"Okay, I have no problem here."

"Me neither, let's start."

Hearing the reply from the two, Arthur smiled and turned to Corinna and said, "Let's get started."

"Good boss." Corinna nodded.

Witnessed by the members of the three parties negotiating, the management of the coastal power plant, and the representative of the creditor Barclays Bank, Arthur Bolling, Wu Qiang, and Victor Li each picked up a pen, signed their names on the agreement, and then exchanged the agreement. Sign again.

"Welcome!"

"thanks!"

After the agreement was signed, Arthur shook hands with Wu Qiang and Victor Li enthusiastically and said with a smile on his face. At this time, there was already warm applause in the conference room.

"boom!"

"Hehe, please—"

When the deal was concluded, it was natural to open champagne to celebrate. Arthur took a glass of champagne and handed it to Wu Qiang, then took another glass of champagne and handed it to Victor Li, and finally picked up a glass.

"I sincerely welcome you to join in, believe me, you will never regret this transaction today, cheers!"

"Hehe, then wish us a happy cooperation and success together! Cheers——"

"cheers!"

"Ding--"

The three goblets collided lightly, making a crisp and pleasant sound. The three looked at each other and smiled, and drank together.

The celebration did not last long and ended. Arthur personally sent the representatives of the three parties to the car. After watching the convoy leave, the smile on his face slowly dissipated. He said to Angela and Corinna who were by his side: "You two Come to my office, by the way, call the treasurer."

Corinna and Angela looked at each other, nodded and said, "Okay, boss."

Taking the elevator back to his office, Arthur happily sat on the boss chair, spun around twice happily, clapped his hands on the desk, and said with emotion: "It's finally finished!"

The pocket is safe, the situation is changing rapidly, and it is better to make a profit than to lose it!

"Boom——"

Before he came, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in—"

"boss."

"Sit!" Arthur saw the three people who pushed the door and walked in, smiled and stretched out his hand, inviting the three to sit down.

After the three of them sat down, Arthur first asked the treasurer, "Has the funds arrived yet?"

"It's already arrived. The agreement has been signed. After I got the check, I arranged for someone to cash it. I just received a confirmation call from the bank."

"Okay." Arthur nodded in satisfaction, looked at Corinna and continued: "180 million pounds, I will put 120 million into the company's account, and the funds for the third phase of the project are now settled However, out of the 120 million, it is best to take out 50 million pounds to set up a separate account, which will be used as the company's reserve cash for emergencies.

After all, we still have to repay debts, loan interest, and deal with unknown and uncertain situations. The European economy in the future will be turbulent, and we have to say that we must prepare in advance to deal with it! "

Arthur didn't mention the remaining 60 million pounds, and Angela, Corinna, and the finance director didn't ask either. They all knew that the 60 million pounds was the profit earned by the boss's fifty-day investment.
