Elder Liu's offer of three billion USD had already shocked Liu Qunfeng greatly. However, if he were to calculate according to Xia Ruofei's list of medicinal ingredients, just the Amethyst Blood Radish alone was sold for a sky-high price of two hundred million USD three years ago. That pill was made from more than ten types of medicinal ingredients that were at least as precious as the Amethyst Blood Radish, and it could even cure Elder Liu's illness. Its value was indeed immeasurable.
If that was the case, even three billion USD would not be too much.
Even though this amount of money was definitely an astronomical figure for Family Liu, and they might even have to sell off a considerable part of their business to be able to gather it, but at least this was an acceptable condition.
After all, compared to Elder Liu's life, what was three billion USD?
But the second condition that Elder Liu mentioned, even Liu Qunfeng felt a trace of absurdity.
40% of the family group's shares, what kind of concept was this?
Family Liu was a large family. Some of the core family members, including Liu Qunfeng himself, more or less held a portion of the family group's shares. The shares that were scattered among the family members were about 30%.
The remaining 70% was actually held by Elder Liu himself.
He gave 40% of the shares to Xia Ruofei, then Xia Ruofei would become the largest shareholder of Family Liu's family group.
And people's hearts were the most difficult to guess. The family members held 30% of the shares in their hands! These shares were scattered in the hands of so many people. It was hard to guarantee that no one would be willing to sell their shares.
Xia Ruofei only needed to buy another 11% of the shares to complete the control of the group.
Then wouldn't Family Liu's family group be changed to Xia?
If the person who said this wasn't Elder Liu himself, Liu Qunfeng would definitely scold him without hesitation, thinking that he was absolutely crazy.
However, no matter what, he would not dare to be so disrespectful towards Old Man Liu's words.
Elder Liu faintly glanced at Liu Qunfeng and asked, "You can't hold it in anymore?"
Liu Qunfeng bitterly smiled and said, "Dad! This condition of yours is a little too frightening. I was really shocked … I think the other family members, such as Uncle Chongli, would have a bigger reaction after hearing it … "
"Whoever has an opinion has to hold it in!" Elder Liu curled his lips and said, "It's the same even if you have an opinion!"
Liu Qunfeng quickly said, "No! No! If you have decided, then I will definitely support you! Absolutely without any objections! "
What could he do if he didn't support it? His single-digit shares had no right to speak at all. Not to mention that even if he didn't have any shares, no one in Family Liu would dare to disobey him.
Elder Liu faintly said, "I haven't finished speaking yet! The third option Qingyun Island, Qingyun Island and 500 million USD. "
Elder Liu's second condition had already made Liu Qunfeng break out in a cold sweat. Therefore, even though the third condition was also enough to make the Liu Family's flesh ache, Liu Qunfeng didn't have such a big reaction.
This was the effect of comparison. If Old Master Liu had mentioned the third condition first, Liu Qunfeng would definitely have cried out involuntarily.
But in his opinion, no matter what, it wasn't as scary as losing 40% of the Family Liu Group's shares. Although the third condition was also a huge sacrifice for Family Liu.
500 million USD in cash was still acceptable. It was at least more acceptable than 3 billion USD or 40% of the Family Liu Group's shares.
The key was the Qingyun Island that Elder Liu mentioned.
The island wasn't in Huaxia. It was in the vast South Pacific Ocean. It belonged to the South Pacific island country of Bonaotu. Bonaotu was made up of a series of islands. Qingyun Island was far away from the other islands in the archipelago. It was the second largest island in the archipelago. The largest was naturally the island where Bonaotu's capital was located.
Of course, Qingyun Island wasn't called Qingyun Island at that time. It was the name Family Liu changed after buying it.
Bonaotu used to be a French colony. It became independent in the 1990s. Because of the intentional manipulation of the relevant countries, the domestic situation had always been chaotic. From time to time, there would be riots or coups.
Family Liu also saw an opportunity. During a change of regime in Bonaotu, he bought the permanent ownership of Qingyun Island.
At that time, Bonaotu was in charge of a military government. A colonel controlled the entire country. Poverty and chaos were the norm in the country. Family Liu offered a sky-high price of 1 billion USD. The colonel almost didn't hesitate to agree. He passed the vote in the Congress as quickly as possible. Those who opposed him in the Congress were thrown into the Pacific Ocean to feed the fish. His will was the highest command in the Congress. It was impossible for it not to pass.
Just like that, Family Liu obtained the permanent ownership of Qingyun Island.
Although it wasn't an independent country, Bonaotu recognized Qingyun Island's high degree of autonomy. And according to the original purchase agreement, Qingyun Island could have its own defense force. Bonaotu couldn't interfere with Qingyun Island's daily affairs.
In fact, it was already independent.
In the following years, Family Liu had been vigorously building Qingyun Island. The purpose was to leave behind the last habitat for the family overseas. If the family were to encounter a disaster, at least the clansmen would have a place to go.
After Qingyun Island became a private island, outsiders naturally couldn't go on the island. Bonaotu's government went through several regime changes, but Family Liu's control of Qingyun Island was always recognized. In fact, even if they didn't recognize it, there was nothing they could do. After years of construction, Qingyun Island's defense was no longer something Bonaotu's army could break through.
Family Liu didn't just build infrastructure. The construction of various defense facilities was also of the highest standards. They even purchased an air defense system from the black market.
In addition, the beach fortifications, detection radars, surveillance systems, and so on were also built according to the highest standards.
In addition, Family Liu also raised a mercenary army to be responsible for Qingyun Island's defense.
It could be said that after so many years of construction, Qingyun Island had become a private island armed to the teeth.
To build a large island to its current state, it naturally cost a lot of money.
Over the years, Family Liu had been investing heavily every year. All the money added up was at least two or three billion US dollars.
Therefore, in fact, the three conditions proposed by Elder Liu were basically the same when converted into money.
Elder Liu looked at Liu Qunfeng with a smile and asked, "Qunfeng, which one do you think Xiao Xia will choose? Or … Will he still not be tempted and choose none of the three conditions? "
"That's impossible!" Liu Qunfeng said. "If he's not tempted by such conditions, how is that possible?"
Liu Qunfeng said this and couldn't help but hesitate. He said, "As for which one you asked me to guess … I really can't guess … According to common sense, he'll definitely choose the shares, but Mr. Xia isn't an ordinary person. His thoughts are really hard to guess …"
Elder Liu nodded and said, "Then let's wait and see!"
Liu Qunfeng hesitated for a moment, then said, "Dad! I know that no matter what price we have to pay in exchange for your health, it's worth it. It's just that … aren't the conditions you've set out a little too good? No matter which one Mr. Xia chooses, it's like cutting a piece of flesh from our hearts! Let's not talk about other things, just Qingyun Island, that's your blood, sweat, and tears! And after we successfully bought it, we spent so many years building it bit by bit. If we give it to Mr. Xia like this, won't you … Won't you feel bad? "
Elder Liu said lightly, "I've always believed in the principle of equal value. Xiao Xia treated me, and we paid the same price. This is the fairest thing. Qunfeng, don't tell anyone about this first, in case they change their minds! "
Liu Qunfeng nodded and said, "Okay, I understand!"
Looking at his father's sparse white hair and tired face, Liu Qunfeng couldn't help but feel sad. If this was in the past, Elder Liu wouldn't have been so careful. Family Liu wouldn't have dared to have any objections to his decision. However, this time, Elder Liu only chose to tell him alone and kept it a secret from the other clansmen. It was obvious that he felt powerless and was even unable to suppress the people below him.
This was normal. In ancient times, if the emperor's health was not good, the ministers below him would have different thoughts! The princes would also be restless.
Moreover, Elder Liu was only the head of a family.
Elder Liu spoke a lot today, and the fatigue on his face became more obvious. Liu Qunfeng quickly asked him to lie down and rest, then he quietly left the ward.
Liu Qunfeng held his phone and hesitated for a while, but in the end, he didn't make the call. He sighed secretly, put his phone in his pocket, and walked back to his room.
…
The next morning, after Xia Ruofei had breakfast at Liuhai Hutong Siheyuan, he asked Wu Qiang to drive him to Family Liu's house.
Liu Qunfeng also expected Xia Ruofei to come this morning, so he waited downstairs in advance.
When he saw Xia Ruofei get out of the car, Liu Qunfeng quickly went to greet him.
Xia Ruofei took the incubator with the Chinese medicine bag from Wu Qiang's hand, then said to Wu Qiang, "You go back first! I'll call you when I need to use the car! "
"Okay, boss!" Wu Qiang said respectfully.
"Mr. Xia, you've worked hard! You've worked hard! "Liu Qunfeng greeted him with a smile.
"Good morning, Minister Liu!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Liu Qunfeng looked at the incubator in Xia Ruofei's hand, and he knew that it was full of his father's life-saving medicine.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Minister Liu, the medicine is ready. Because of the limited amount of herbs, I only prepared three days' worth of medicine. Let's go give the chief a pack first!"
"Okay, Mr. Xia, please!" Liu Qunfeng said quickly.
He was waiting for Xia Ruofei to say that!
The two of them went upstairs, and Xia Ruofei first went to the room next to Elder Liu's. He put all the Chinese medicine bags in the incubator into the refrigerator, leaving only one bag outside.
Liu Qunfeng also ordered the guards to do their best and not allow anyone to get close to the refrigerator.
