Chen Mo's team's acquisition of the three regions started quickly, but due to the limited number of team members, they carried out one by one, starting with the Bronx District in Northern Manhattan.
However, shortly after the acquisition, there was a problem. They found that many landowners who had just talked about the land and had not yet given a reply suddenly sold the land to others. Some land that they had not yet had time to contact and negotiate was also snapped up at a high price. It seems that a large number of competitors are competing with them for the land in these areas.
In response to this emergency, Tom, the head of Chen Mo's private business team, immediately reported to Chen mo.
"Boss, just at the beginning of our acquisition of the Bronx, a lot of competitors suddenly appeared. They were numerous and moved faster than us. They raised the price of the land a lot as soon as they started. Now it's very difficult for us to complete the acquisition at normal price."
Tom, the head of Chen Mo's private business team, came to the office of Chen Mo's manor, reported the latest situation to Chen Mo, and asked Chen Mo's opinion, whether to raise the price to continue the acquisition, compete with them, or simply give up the acquisition. As far as the current situation is concerned, even if they turn to acquire the land in Queens and Staten Island, the other party is likely to continue to follow.
Chen Mo didn't have any accidents when he got their reports. Although the people behind the scenes deliberately hid their identities and sent a large number of agents to create a false image of many businessmen blindly following the trend of buying because of Chen Mo's previous wanton purchase, Chen Mo knew that they were all standing behind the same person, now the richest man in the United States, John Jacob Astor!
When chenmo first decided to take John Jacob Astor, he had expected to be revenged by him. Chenmer did not hide the meaning of Indians, which showed that chenmo did not pay attention to the richest man in the United States.
Chen Mo is not in a hurry to acquire these lands. These areas are still far away from real development. There is no big difference between the acquisition now and the acquisition decades later. There is no big change in price and other aspects. He just wants to get to the right place in one step and finish this little thing at once.
At this time, the other party suddenly inserted a hand horizontally, obviously seeing Chen Mo's persistence to the enclosure, and wanted to pit Chen mo.
"Boss, the price of these land has exceeded its actual value, and there is no need to purchase now. Purchase plan, do you want to continue?"
Tom, the head of the business team, asked Chen mo.
They just put forward suggestions. Whether to continue the acquisition or not depends on Chen Mo's order.
"Continue to purchase, he raised the price, and we also raised it. We should take out a necessary posture, no matter how much money! I'm going to decide on this land! "
……
John Jacob Astor thinks he's secretly pitching Chen Mo, but he doesn't know that Chen Mo has been waiting for him!
Now that he has started, Chen Mo will go on directly.
Then, under the instruction of Chen Mo, the acquisition team immediately and appropriately raised the acquisition price according to the current situation, and finally seized some land, but the other party's response was also very fast, and immediately raised the acquisition price again.
In this way, the price of these originally very cheap land has increased by nearly half under the competition of both sides. If we continue like this, it will soon double.
In fact, John Jacob Astor didn't raise the price blindly. He was also trying at first. First, he raised the price and snapped up some land from Chen Mo's hands. Chen Mo immediately followed the price increase. Then, John Jacob Astor gradually controlled the price increase. At this time, if Chen Mo gave up the purchase, he would have no more than scheming I bought some suburban land which was very cheap at a higher price.
But if Chen Mo continues to buy at a high price, it means that Chen Mo really has a strong attachment to these lands as he expected, or even the potential is inevitable. In this way, he can safely carry out the next plan!
John Jacob Astor's purpose is not just to raise the price, but to earn a lot of money from Chen Mo, and get all the profits from the fur trade that Chen Mo stole from him back!
When the price of land in the most competitive area of the Bronx, which borders the northern part of Manhattan, rose to 1.5 times as high as before, some people began to sell out. Many land that had been bought at a low price before began to be sold at a high price, which seemed to be a lot of speculation.
This is actually John Jacobs Astor's last attempt to see how determined Chen Mo is to buy the land. He can also rest assured that he will arrange the later.
As he expected, if someone sold it, Chen Mo would buy it all without hesitation, regardless of the price. At that time, John Jacob Astor was completely relieved and began to launch all the forces in his hands to buy the land in Bronx, queens and Staten Island.
As John Jacob Astor controls the scope of the competition, only the southernmost part of the Bronx and the northern part of Manhattan have the highest land price rise, while the land prices of other places have only slightly increased, and the land prices of queens and Staten Island have not changed much.These lands were quickly eaten by John Jacob Astor with his contacts and influence in New York for many years.
Then, John Jacob Astor directly doubled the price and began to sell them to the outside world, happily waiting for Chen Mo to take a bite of them.
If Chen is really an ordinary rich man from China, it is possible for him to pay a high price to buy the land in the hands of John Jacobs Astor for his inner attachment to the land and to get the vast land.
Although the price of these lands has more than doubled, compared with China, which has a much denser population and is dominated by farming, they still account for the price of cabbage.
Unfortunately, although Chen Mo also came from China, he was not a Chinese in this period.
When John Jacob Astor ate all the land in these areas, Chen Mo stopped buying the land directly. When they began to sell the land to the outside and waited for Chen Mo to take over at a high price, they found that Chen Mo suddenly stopped!
"Master!"
In the luxurious villa of John Jacob Astor, a study with luxurious and elegant decoration and full of cultural and artistic atmosphere, the housekeeper knocked on the door and came in with a low head cry.
