Xia Ruofei and the rest could not help but look over. They saw this white man rolling forward like a meatball. His sparse yellow hair shook, making him look very comical.
As he walked, he said loudly, "Carter, Carberry! Something happened on the way here. Sorry to keep you waiting! Sorry … "
However, there was no sign of guilt on his face. Instead, there was a hint of pride on his face.
Old West and his wife heard the commotion and walked out of the house.
Old West looked at the "meatball" and said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Robinson, we agreed to meet at three in the afternoon. You're two and a half hours late!"
Big Fatty Robinson said unconcernedly, "Something happened at my winery. You know … a big winery like ours is very busy. Okay, okay, Carter, don't worry about these details. Where's Carberry … "
At this time, Carberry walked out of the house and stood beside Old West.
Robinson said with an exaggerated expression, "Oh! My dear Carberry, you're still as beautiful as when you were young! "
Xia Ruofei, Lin Qiao, and Liang Qichao all had strange expressions on their faces. They really couldn't tell which part of Madam Cabelli was pretty. Not to mention other things, just her waist alone was probably not something an average person could handle!
However, looking at Robinson's fat body, he was at least a ton heavier than Carberry.
This person's sense of beauty was somewhat unique.
Old West's expression became even worse. He snorted and said, "Robinson, punctuality is the most important quality of a businessman!"
Robinson shrugged and said, "Okay, okay, I've already apologized, haven't I?"
His attitude was still so casual. There was no sincerity at all.
Robinson then said, "Carter, let's talk about buying the winery! You know, my winery is too busy. I don't have much time to waste. "
Old West and Carberry looked at each other and then opened their mouths.
However, before he could speak, Robinson said, "Actually, I've already made it very clear on the phone. After careful evaluation, we think that West Winery's situation can barely meet our acquisition requirements. However, 1.5 million Australian dollars is the highest price we can offer."
Old West said, "Robinson, actually …"
"No, no, no, Carter, listen to me first!" Robinson waved his hand at Old West and said, "I'm here today to give you a final offer. 1.65 million Australian dollars! After all, my dear Carberry was my dream lover when I was young … Oh, now that I think about it, I feel regretful! Carberry, the facts have proven how wrong your choice was! If you had chosen me instead of Carter, you would now have the largest winery in the Hunter Valley … "
"Enough! Robinson! " Old West finally couldn't take it anymore and interrupted Robinson's monologue. "Please don't talk about Cabelli anymore! "Carberry, Carberry," Carberry, please leave! "
Robinson couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before saying, "Carter, have you thought it through? Other than me, no one else would offer such a high price! "
Carberry's expression was also very ugly. She looked at Robinson with some disgust and said, "You don't have to worry, Robinson! We've already found a new buyer! "
In the house, Xia Ruofei and the other two were trying hard to hold back their laughter. They did not expect to hear such an interesting thing.
It seemed like Uncle Carter, Carberry and that fat pig Robinson had a lot of stories when they were young!
However, Xia Ruofei did not dare to imagine how Carberry looked like when she was young.
Of course, many western women started to lose their shape after they reached middle age. Although Madam Cabelli's waist was as thick as a water bucket and her face was full of meat, she might have been a hot beauty when she was young!
Outside the house, Robinson was dumbfounded. After a while, he said, "New buyer? Carberry, you're not joking, right? "
Old West said impatiently, "We don't have time to joke with you. Robinson, we've already signed the acquisition contract. "
Carberry added, "Even if we can't find a buyer, we can't sell the winery for 1.65 million Australian dollars. Robinson, I'm afraid you've made a wasted trip! "
This time, it was Robinson's turn to be ugly.
In fact, although he acted like he didn't care and was late on purpose, it was just a small business trick. In fact, he was still very interested in Wester Winery.
Robinson was the owner of Golden Oak Winery, the largest winery in the Hunter Valley. Just as Xia Ruofei and the rest had guessed, Robinson was good friends with Old West and his wife when they were young. At that time, he and Old West were both suitors of Carberry.
In the end, Carberry naturally chose Old West.
Although Robinson's winery was far larger than West Winery, West Winery's century-old heritage, especially the unique brewing process of Semillon, was something that Robinson coveted.
This time, Old West was in a hurry to sell the winery. Robinson thought that the opportunity had come. At first, he deliberately set the price very low, but this time, he increased it a little. He knew that Old West was desperate and had no other choice but to sell the winery.
To his surprise, he was only two hours late and the Wester Winery had already changed owners.
Is Carter trying to trick me? A few days ago, he was like an ant on a hot pan looking for a buyer everywhere! Even if someone was interested in the winery, how could they sign the acquisition contract in such a short time? Robinson said to himself in his heart.
The acquisition of a winery was a very complicated process. The prospective buyer would definitely have to do a lot of investigation and evaluation. Robinson knew Carberry inside out and had arranged for someone to do a comprehensive evaluation of the winery.
Of course, this evaluation was different from a third party's evaluation. They analyzed the value of Carberry from Golden Oak Winery's perspective, as well as the weaknesses of the negotiation and so on. They were all giving Robinson suggestions.
Thinking of this, a sly smile appeared on Robinson's face. He said, "Carter, we're all smart people. Let's not play such petty tricks! I know you want to sell it at a higher price, but I've already shown my sincerity. 1.65 million is the highest price you can go. "
"You think I'm lying?" Old West said with a strange expression. "Robinson, you're too confident..."
"Is that so? Could it be that someone really closed a deal for two million Australian dollars in such a short time? "Robinson said with a shrug." That sounds more like a fantasy story! Carter, can you tell me how much your transaction price is? "
"I'm sorry, this is a trade secret!" Before Old West could say anything, Madam Carberry beside him spoke first.
Robinson whistled and said, "Trade secrets, this is indeed a good excuse …"
At this time, a young voice sounded, "It's okay to tell you. Our transaction price is two million Australian dollars!"
"Xia!" When Old West saw Xia Ruofei come out, he said, "I'm sorry to disturb you and your friend …"
Xia Ruofei shook his head with a faint smile, then looked at Robinson with a mocking smile.
"Two million Australian dollars!" Robinson exclaimed, "Friend, as far as I know, Carter's asking price is only 1.8 million Australian dollars!"
"I know. But I think Winery West is worth that much, "Xia Ruofei said nonchalantly.
"Are you from Huaxia?" Robinson asked.
In the eyes of Westerners, people from Huaxia, Japan, and South Korea all looked the same, and it was impossible to tell their nationality apart.
It was the same feeling that people from Huaxia had when they saw people from Europe and America.
Robinson already felt that something was not right. He had lived in the Hunter Valley for so long, and naturally, he knew that Huaxia seemed to be full of rich people these years. Rich people from Huaxia could be seen all over the world waving their checkbooks to buy properties.
If this young man was from Huaxia, then it was not impossible for him to buy Winery West for two million Australian dollars.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Yes, sir. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Have you really signed the acquisition agreement?" Robinson asked, unwilling to give up.
"Very sure!" Xia Ruofei said with a faint smile, "Lawyer Heinz personally helped us draft the agreement."
"What the hell …" Robinson cursed in his heart.
Robinson knew that his wishful thinking had come to naught this time. He looked at the West couple unwillingly, thinking to himself that they were really lucky to have met a Chinese tycoon with a lot of money!
Robinson put on a fake smile and said, "Then, congratulations to Mr. Xia! But running a winery is not an easy task. Every year, wineries in the Hunter Valley close down, and many of them were bought by your Huaxia compatriots, so … I wish you good luck! "
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Robinson, even if all the wineries in Hunter's Valley go bankrupt, my winery won't. We'll grow bigger and bigger. Maybe one day we'll come to buy your winery!"
At this point, Xia Ruofei added, "By the way, I have already hired Uncle Carter and Aunt Carberry to be the managers of our winery. I think Uncle Carter will definitely come to visit on time!"
Xia Ruofei especially emphasized the word "punctual". Obviously, she was mocking Robinson for being late by two to three hours.
Robinson heard that Xia Ruofei had not only bought the winery at a high price, but also asked the old West couple to continue working at the winery with a high salary. His face darkened even more.
He said with a cold face, "Alright! I look forward to that day. Goodbye! "
"I won't see you off!" Xia Ruofei immediately said lightly.
He was speaking as the owner of Wester Winery.
Robinson's fat body jiggled as he turned around and left in his car without saying a word.
