There is no shortage of discerning people in this world. In the afternoon, Tang Mo received a visit from the Marquis.
There is nothing special about the visiting Lord Marquis, he is just very rich - this Lord Marquis is a close confidant of the King of Dorne, and it was he who introduced Strauss to the King of Dorne.
He was a count before, but later he was promoted to marquis because of his meritorious service in introducing Strauss and donating a lot of money during the war.
Of course, the fact that he could be promoted to Marquis so easily also illustrates one thing from the side - the King of Dorne also had the intention of proclaiming himself emperor.
This discerning Marquis is very good at investing. He purchased other shares of a large number of workshops controlled by Datang Group very early, so he became a shareholder of a subsidiary of Datang Group.
This made him a lot of money, and at the same time strengthened his determination to keep pace with Datang Group.
If you grasp the trend of the times, even a pig will take off, right? What's more, this Lord Marquis, he is not a pig.
"I wonder why the Marquis is so anxious to see me?" Tang Mo's time is actually very precious now. He has to deal with many problems every day, so there are not many opportunities to meet someone alone.
Many people within Datang Group even joked that to meet Tang Mo, one must be a king.
Of course, if someone is rich and willing to invest, Tang Mo doesn't mind wasting twenty minutes and having a good chat with the person.
"Sir, I am here this time to ask you if you have any idea... of selling a team?" The middle-aged man, known as the Marquis of Egret, went straight to the topic as soon as he opened his mouth.
Obviously, he also knew that Tang Mo's time was very precious. Under normal circumstances, when Tang Mo wanted to meet a certain guest, he would prefer to go straight to the topic and not make any subtle moves.
He is really too busy. If he has time to argue with others and pretend to be sophisticated, he might as well make more money by drawing two drawings.
"Team? Haven't I already sent out the rules for forming a basketball team? If you are interested, you can recruit your own people and form a team yourself... As long as you pay the admission fee of 100,000 gold coins, you can
Let's take part in the next competition..." Tang Mo looked into the other person's eyes and said straightforwardly.
"I'm not talking about the basketball team, although... I am also forming a basketball team, but I came to see you this time because I want to have a good talk with you about the football team." Marquis Egret explained.
.
"Football team? The Marquis is also very interested in the football team?" Tang Mo was stunned. He didn't expect that at this time, there would be people who couldn't wait to join the football circle.
Frankly speaking, this is a profitable circle, and it is a very profitable circle. The earlier you enter this circle, the more likely you are to earn more money.
When this sport develops, or it will inevitably develop with Tang Mo's support, then every team will become very popular.
Tang Mo originally wanted to sell these teams at that time to maximize his own profits.
But he really didn't expect that there really are such courageous and visionary smart people in this world. The Marquis of Egret in front of him would dare to invest in a football project that has not yet been fully popularized.
"Of course, I am very interested." Marquis Egret replied seriously.
"The Wolves are not for sale. They are now the property of the Earl of Beiling. There is no way I can promise you..." Tang Mo thought about it seriously before speaking and limiting it in advance.
Hearing what Tang Mo said, Marquis Egret's eyes instantly lit up. He stood up from his seat and asked tentatively with some uncertainty: "So, you agree to sell a football team?
"
"Of course, why not? As long as you give me enough, I rarely have items that are not for sale." Tang Mo made his attitude clear.
"I am willing to pay 2 million gold coins to buy the Bunas Victory Team!" The Marquis had no intention of buying the Wolves team that eventually won the championship. He knew that was unrealistic.
However, compared to a championship, he was more optimistic about the name of Bonas Victory Team! He keenly captured that this name is the real value of this team.
"You know I'm not short of money." Tang Mo has been wanting to say this for a long time, and today he can finally say it with peace of mind. After saying this, he continued without waiting for the other party to speak.
Next he said: "Isn't it too childish to spend 2 million gold coins to buy a team named after Bunas? Lord Marquis."
"So...Mr. Tang, how much are you willing to sell Bunas Victory Team for?" Marquis Egret felt that his wallet might not be safe.
"Five million gold coins! You can pay in installments! I know you have a lot of properties in Dorne, and I can collect all the land, property, and mines..." Tang Mo directly offered a price that was not low.
To be honest, even if the football game develops and the scale is five times its current size, the price will not be cheap.
However, when Marquis Egret was hesitating, Tang Mo said something that made his heart beat: "I don't mind if you change the Bunas Victory Team to the Bunas Egret Team... and I can guarantee that,
There is only one team in Bunas City..."
"Deal! Sir! 5 million gold coins!" It only took three seconds for Marquis Egret to make his decision.
"You made a right decision! Believe me, the future value of this team will definitely exceed 100 million gold coins." Tang Mo smiled and stretched out his hand.
People who are familiar with Tang Mo, or people who have dealt with Tang Mo, all know Tang Mo's rules. Marquis Egret immediately stretched out his hand and shook Tang Mo's hand.
Marquis Egret has many industries under his command, including the textile industry. He has been thinking about promoting his own brand recently, and football has opened a door that makes him excited.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In a few months, when the Bunas White Heron team appears on the playing field, his industry will also be recognized along with Bunas’ name.
Repeatedly, this was exactly what he needed.
For him, spending 5 million gold coins to tie his property to the famous city of Bunas is definitely not a loss.
What's more, if this team wins the championship, it will receive additional benefits, including actual economic benefits and additional reputation benefits.
"Thank you! Mr. Tang! I will never forget your kindness." Marquis Egret, who chose to believe what Tang Mo said, truly believed that he had indeed taken advantage, so he became more humble to Tang Mo.
Then, in the evening of the day when Marquis Egret left, a super-rich man from Pinewood Kingdom made the same choice.
He is the owner of almost all saltpeter mines in the Songmu Kingdom and is also an important partner of Datang Group.
The Elf Count came to Tang Mo for the same purpose as the Egret Marquis. He also took a fancy to the development prospects of football and planned to invest in it in advance to gain first-mover advantage.
Recently, with the support of Datang Group, this elf has exchanged his saltpeter mine for many other industries. For example, a considerable part of this earl's industry is now food.
Because he was in the process of transformation and had accumulated a lot of spare money, the Elf Count planned to acquire the only remaining team from Tang Mo that had participated in the first round - Yucheng Team.
Tang Mo naturally did not refuse this smart man's request and sold the Yucheng team to the other party for 5.5 million.
Almost as soon as the transaction intention was confirmed, the Tamaki team had a new name: Tamaki Songlinji Team.
There is no other way. Under the influence of Datang Group, many nobles and wealthy businessmen with relatively large industries have recently begun to rename their industries to XX Group.
This is a popular trend. In the past, names such as consortium seemed to have become rustic in front of the group and were no longer useful.
For a time, the XX Group sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the word "group" became no longer solemn and sacred as it was abused.
For this matter, Datang Group really doesn't have a good solution, because now even a slightly larger steel smelting workshop dares to call itself X Steel Group...
What's more, the Datang Group that followed Tang Mo's example were not all small businesses. The Binghan Group in the Ice Kingdom, the Southern Group in the Kingdom of Dorne, and the United Group jointly formed by a group of chaebols in the Kingdom of Wright were all large in scale.
.
Although compared with the Datang Group, these groups are not actually huge in scale, but they do have the qualification to call themselves a group, and there is no need to deny this.
In fact, Tang Mo has also been thinking recently about splitting up the companies in his hands to make them look more independent.
Today, the industries in Tang Mo's hands include, from low to high, food production in areas such as Bunas and Longdao, ore processing such as iron and steel metallurgy and forging, machine tool equipment production, power and power generation, entertainment-related industries, and the emerging sports industry.
, art luxury goods industry, military industry, pharmaceutical and medical industry, automobile industry, shipbuilding industry, banking and financial industry...
Any one of these industries is a real group, so confining them within a Datang Group seems to be detrimental to the expansion and development of these industries.
Therefore, Tang Mo plans to transform Datang into a higher-level existence, so that the core leadership circle will tend to remain behind the scenes.
After all, the size of the economy he controls is already too huge, and the power of his important subordinates is actually greater than that of the king of the kingdom. Living in seclusion behind the scenes is actually safer for him and his subordinates...
At least, on the surface, it makes Datang Group look less intimidating.
