Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Liang En had seen the official sale of state-owned land in Greece before on the news, mainly because the overall economic situation in Greece was not very good, so it could only raise funds to repay debts through this method.

It's just that the news focused on those islands that can be sold in order to attract attention, so Liang En really doesn't know the overall situation of this project.

"According to the information our people have received, excavation is allowed on the land sold by Greek officials. If the land exceeds ten acres, the excavation permit will be provided free of charge." Harry said in a low voice.

"The Greek excavation permit is actually of little value." Liang En shrugged and said, "They require that all the excavated things must be handed over, and then in theory the Greek official will pay half of the value of the excavated things as a reward."

"You are right, but from the perspective of archaeological excavation, this is a very good opportunity." Harry nodded first, and then said, "For example, the discoverer can be a partner in the excavation and designate 1 to 5 archaeologists. The team joined the excavation work.”

"For another example, if a relic is discovered, in addition to redeeming the bonus, the discoverer can also choose to invest the bonus into shares and share in the possible profits from the discovered relic in the future."

"It sounds very good, but to put it bluntly, the Greek officials don't want to pay in cash." Liang En smiled and shrugged. From this policy, we can also see that Greece's finances are indeed in serious trouble, so that they must use cash. This method raises funds.

However, these policies can indeed attract some people. For example, the Oxford University and Golden Dawn behind Harry plan to join the auction to see if they can buy land with ruins underneath.

"What do you think about us going to Greece to try our luck?" Liang En asked Joan of Arc on the way home after finishing the party and exchanging contact information with some of the people with whom she was more compatible.

After staying in the Western world for so many years, Liang En certainly understands that the means of production are the most valuable investments here, and a piece of valuable land is the best means of production.

This is why Liang En invests in pastures, real estate, plantations or wind power plants. Although this kind of investment has a lower return rate than financial speculation, it is undeniable that this kind of investment is more stable.

"A good suggestion. The olive plantations in Greece are still very valuable, and the vineyards are also good. If it is not possible, wheat farms or ordinary pastures are also acceptable." Joan of Arc said, who had just checked a lot of information.

Joan of Arc may not know much about other industries, but when it comes to farming, she is a real expert. Whether she was helping her family run the farmland when she was young or fighting with a group of noble-born generals later, she learned a lot. Agricultural knowledge.

Of course, the agricultural knowledge here is not knowledge about how to farm, but how to run a farm and make profits from it.

In short, in Joan's eyes, land is definitely one of the most worthy investments, so she immediately answered the question raised by Liang En in the affirmative.

And when Liang En went home and asked his parents about this issue at the lunch table the next day, they gave the same advice as Joan of Arc.

For his parents, they have the special Chinese love for the land. They were even willing to leave their hometown for a farm and come to live in this country half a world away from their hometown, so they naturally supported their children's purchase of land.

After listening to everyone's suggestions, Liang En made up his mind at once. In fact, he was also inclined to invest in this area before, and the support from his family and friends allowed him to put aside his last doubt and start doing this.

So in the next week, Liang En spent a lot of time collecting this information with his lawyer, and then took a plane to Athens, the capital of Greece, with Fan Meng and Joan of Arc.

Because they planned to use 5 million euros to buy land this time, they quickly received official reception when they arrived in Athens, and then started selecting from a pile of information.

Obviously, the price of land purchased around the world is closely related to the location of the land. For example, under the same conditions in Greece, the agricultural land near Athens is three times the agricultural land on the border between Greece and Turkey.

"Why is this land so cheap?" After searching for a map for a long time, Liang En suddenly took out a map of Crete and said.

"Sixty hectares only cost 5 million euros. I remember that even empty agricultural land cost 9 million euros, let alone an olive plantation."

"There is a reason why this land is cheap." After seeing the picture, the staff member immediately checked on the computer and then explained to him.

"On the one hand, only 40 hectares of the entire land are olive plantations. The 20 hectares of land in the core are a hill with a relatively steep slope and a barren land, which is not very suitable for agricultural cultivation."

"On the other hand, these olive groves are about ten years old, but the overall harvest is very bad, and they have not even entered the fruitful period. Normal olive trees should enter the fruitful period in 7 to 9 years."

"So people who accept plantations may need to spend a lot of time, energy and money to deal with these problems, so we price the land at a price similar to wasteland."

Through this staff member's explanation, Liang En finally put aside his doubts. If this was the case, the price of an olive grove on the island of Crete, the largest olive producing area in Greece, for selling wasteland would be understandable.

Unlike ordinary businessmen who would like to sell goods worth ten dollars when selling goods, this land sale is an official act and is endorsed by the country's credibility, so there is no possibility of serious deception.

It's just that if you want to buy real estate, it can't be negotiated by checking the information in the office. So after the Greek officials conducted capital verification on Liang En, the two parties made an appointment to go to Crete for an on-site inspection the next day, accompanied by official personnel. one time.

"Why did you take over such a messed up land?" After returning to the hotel, Joan of Arc immediately asked Liang En her inner doubts. At this time, Fan Meng consciously said hello and ran to the hotel swimming pool to swim. .

"This is because there is likely to be an important historical site on the barren hill in the middle of the olive plantation." After discovering that there were only two people around, Liang En was able to talk about the matter. "

If that ruins really existed, I would have made a profit even if I paid 5 million to buy this land. And if the ruins don't exist, I have a way to bring the olive plantation back to life, at least without losing money. "

"If things are the same as what you said, then this investment is indeed worthwhile." Hearing what Liang En said, Joan of Arc was immediately convinced.

The special relationship between the two of them made Joan know that Liang En has many abilities that normal people regard as myths, so after hearing what he said, Joan immediately understood what Liang En was thinking.

So after a good night's rest, early the next morning, they took a scheduled flight that took off at 10:30 noon and headed to Heraklion, the capital of Crete.
