v3 Chapter 1102： Enjoy life if you have money

Xia Yu helped the Rohill family to keep the ownership of Edmund Rohill Bank's name, thereby regaining a full-class banking license.

The Lowhill family sold the Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered shares held by Barclays Bank to Xia Yu at a premium of 25%.

As for the equity of BP, Xia Yu did not get it.

Xia Yu guarded the Roshir family from going back, and the Roshir family was also worried about Xia Yu deceiving them.

However, because Xia Yu took the initiative, he proposed to obtain the shares of Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank.

But he is also willing to sign a secret agreement. The agreement stipulates a one-month security period for purchasing the equity of the two banks. If Xia Yu fails, the cooperation fails, and the equity of the two banks needs to be returned to Barclays Bank. Also need to pay a certain amount of liquidated damages.

After the negotiation, the atmosphere of the chat became more harmonious, at least on the surface.

Just when Xia Yu was about to say goodbye, he saw David Roshir taking out a red wine from the closet and said to Xia Yu with a smile: "Mr. Xia, to celebrate our cooperation, do you want to drink some red wine? "

"The Lafite Winery produced by our family, from 1787, has been stored for nearly two hundred years. It is definitely a treat!"

Xia Yu glanced at Guy Rohill and Davis Rohill.

In the West, to celebrate the achievement of cooperation, some people will use champagne, and of course some elegant wines, especially in France, which loves red wine, so Xia Yu is not very surprised.

Now that the wine had been brought, he couldn't refuse.

He smiled and nodded and said, "I haven't tasted the Lafite of 1787, I think it will be a good treat!"

Hearing Xia Yu's words, David Rohill smiled and drank the red wine, and then poured it into the goblet gracefully.

"Hey!"

"Wish our cooperation go smoothly!"

"Of course, happy cooperation!"

The three wine glasses touched, Xia Yu moved a little slower, and saw that David Rosier and Guy Rosier actually drank the wine in, so he drank it into his mouth calmly and carefully. Savor it.

The Lafite red wine, which is nearly two hundred years old, has a very soft taste and a strong mellow aroma in the mouth. It is a mellow aroma that can only be obtained by time accumulation and fermentation.

The taste is really good!

Xia Yu smiled and exclaimed: "The wine has a rich aroma and a very good taste!"

Xia Yu’s praise made David Lowhill very useful. He smiled and said: "Mr. Xia, if you like Lafite, there are not many in 1787, but there are still some that have been stored for more than a hundred years. You send some to your home."

Xia Yu smiled and shook his head and declined and said, "Mr. David Rohill, thank you for your generosity, but you don’t need it. There are also thousands of acres of vineyards under the lvmh group. Although most of them are made of champagne and brandy, there are still some High-quality red wine."

David Lowhill said with a little regret: "Well then!"

...

On the way back, Xia Yu remembered the pride and superiority of David Rosier when he talked about Lafite Winery when he was at Guy Roshir's house, and could not help but sneer.

However, it was also because of David Rohill's performance that Xia Yu realized that as the wine giant behind the scenes in France, he does not have a top-notch wine estate, which is not in line with his worth.

And to be honest, having a top wine estate in France, a country of wine, will undoubtedly better expand his popularity and connections.

And taking into account the grand occasion of the wine market in later generations, now starting one or two top wine estates is also a business that makes no losses.

After making up his mind, Xia Yu immediately asked Leo Martin to collect information on the top French wineries after returning to the company to see which one is more suitable for the acquisition.

At the same time, Xia Yu also called George Berkeley in London to inform the latter of the terms he negotiated with the Rohill family, and ordered him to arrange for the team to go to Barclays Bank to complete the acquisition as soon as possible.

On January 28, when George Berkeley said that he had completed the wholly-owned holdings of Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank, Xia Yu was very happy. Finally, in addition to Jiuding Bank and Island Chiba Bank, there are two more A large bank that you can use with complete confidence!

Then he called François Mitterrand secretly, thanked him for his help, and informed him of the relaxation of conditions for the Rohill family. François Mitterrand easily agreed and congratulated Xia Yu. .

On this afternoon, Leo Martin also collected the information of the top French wineries very efficiently.

After walking into Xia Yu’s office, Leo Martin reported to Xia Yu with the information: "Boss, Alain Chevalier is very familiar with the wine industry. I asked him to help me collect information together. This was repeated three times. The checked information should be the most detailed!"

"Leo, thanks for your hard work, let's put down the materials first, and I will let you know if something happens!"

Xia Yu said with a satisfied smile, sending Leo Martin away.

Then he flipped through the information on top French wine estates.

The world's most famous wines are in France, and the ten top wine brands in later generations are produced in the top ten famous French vineyards!

The ten famous wineries are Lafite Winery, Latour Winery, Mouton Winery, Margaux Winery, Obiangau Winery, Patus Winery, White Horse Winery and Aosong Winery, Li Chateau Peng and Chateau Romani Conti.

Among them, Chateau Lafite, Chateau Latour, Chateau Mouton, Chateau Margaux and Chateau Obiang are also known as the "Five Famous Estates", because these five top wine estates all produce From the left bank of Bordeaux.

In addition, on the right bank of Bordeaux, there are three famous chateaus, namely Chateau Portus, Chateau White Horse and Chateau Auzon.

Therefore, together with the "Five Famous Villages" on the Left Bank, it is also known as the "Eight Famous Villages in Bordeaux"!

It can be said that Bordeaux is the main producing area of ​​top French red wine.

Of course, now Lipeng Winery is only the tail of the crane.

But the Romani Conti winery is different. This winery is located in the Burgundy region, and Romani Conti is widely regarded as the world's top red wine garden.

This super winery located in the heart of the Burgundy region of Yeqiuzi, alone is enough to elevate the Burgundy region to the same status as Bordeaux.

Moreover, Chateau Romanni Conti is one of the oldest wine estates in France, dating back to the Abbey of Saint-Vivant de Viggi 11 centuries ago.

In the past few days, when Xia Yu is thinking about the acquisition target of the winery, his favorite is the Romanni Conti Winery. If you want to buy it, you must buy the best!

After reading the information, his thoughts became more determined.

Compared to the annual output of the Romane Chateau Lafite, which is about 210,000 bottles per year, the annual output of Romani Conti is controlled at about 6,000, although there is one reason for it. The area is less than that of Lafite Winery, but another important reason is that Romani Conti attaches great importance to quality, and almost every three grapes can produce a bottle of wine.

This winery, which was taken over by Louis XV’s cousin Prince Conti in 1760 and renamed accordingly, changed hands several times over the past two hundred years, the last time being in 1942, the family of Divaux Brocher and The Henry Leroy family holds 50% equity each!

Neither of these two families were the original masters of Romani Kandi. Without the element of family glory, Xia Yu could use money to smash Romany Kandi!

If the premium is 50%, the premium will be doubled, and if it fails, the premium will be doubled. He does not believe that the Divo Bloch family and the Henry Leval family can withstand the French offensive.

Anyway, the value of Chateau Romani Conti is amazing in the future. Before Xia Yu's rebirth, a 1945 Romani Conti wine was sold for 3.86 million RMB, setting a world record for red wine!

And the 1945 red wine stored by Romani Conti, but there are as many as 600 bottles, just one bottle of this batch of wine can be stored in later generations, and it can be sold for hundreds of millions of dollars properly!

It's not too cost-effective to copy them all back now!

Then Xia Yu considered that the output of Romani Conti was indeed too low, and the Roshill family owned a Chateau Mouton in addition to Lafite Winery. He only owned one Romani Conti Winery~ www.novelhall.com~ is a bit of greeting.

After some consideration, he chose the Chateau Latour, which was appointed by Napoleon III as the second among the "Four Famous Estates" in 1855.

Although in the first grading in 1855, Chateau Latour was subordinate to Chateau Lafite, but after years of development, Chateau Latour is similar to Chateau Lafite, that is, the annual output of Bi Lafite. Zhuang is missing 10,000, only 200,000.

However, considering that the Chateau Mouton of the Rohill family was named one of the top five famous chateaus on the left bank of Bordeaux in 1973, it was only one of the second-class chateaus in 1855.

If Xia Yu could own Chateau Latour and Chateau Romanni Kanti, he would actually be much better than the Rohill family.

The Chateau Latour is also very easy to acquire. In 1963, the Segur family sold the winery to a British earl.

If it follows the historical trajectory, Chateau Latour will be repurchased by the French Kering Group in 1993, bringing the ownership back to France.

Of course, the previous life is the previous life after all. In this life, Chateau Latour is targeted by Xia Yu, and there is no Kering Group anymore!

After delineating the prey, Xia Yu called Leo Martin and asked him to be responsible for the acquisition of the Romanie Conti winery. Then he called George Berkeley in London and asked him to arrange someone to find the English earl. Acquired Chateau Latour.

After the two wineries are acquired, Xia Yu believes that his quality of life can be improved.

Time flies like a white horse, two days have passed!

When the scorching sun in the east slowly rises, it heralds the arrival of February.

And this day is also the day when "Economic Weekly" was released globally!
