silent farm

Chapter 182 Compromise Promotes Harmony
The three of them arrived at the same time, and Li Sheng knew that they might all want to talk to him alone.Therefore, although the villa had enough rooms, Li Sheng arranged them in two different villas after dinner.

Sure enough, Fernando called him not long after, saying that he hoped to talk to him.

Fernando and Ali came together, so Li Sheng arranged them to live in a villa in order to have the opportunity to have a private talk with them.It's not far anyway, Li Sheng went to their villa by himself.

In the living room of this villa, Fernando poured Li Sheng a glass of red wine, while Ali was still drinking tea.First of all, Fernando took out a document and handed it to Li Sheng, saying, "This is the record of last quarter's invoice, please take a look. If there is no problem, I will transfer the money to you when I go back."

Li Sheng took a look. Fernando had to pay him about 11 billion reais for the products that Fernando took away from Silent Farm last quarter.There are so many mainly because Fernando took a lot of food from the farm.But it wasn't all his money.He also needs to pay taxes. 27.5%, fixed personal income tax.

Li Sheng didn't say if there was any problem, but just said, "I'll have someone check it before answering you." He paused, then said with a smile. "But you didn't ask me to come here just to tell me this."

Fernando pondered for a while, as if he didn't know how to speak.

Ali waited for a while, but didn't see him speak, so he said, "He was thinking, how can we continue to cooperate with you without barriers like before."

gap?Li Sheng cannot deny that the cooperation between them does exist.But he didn't feel that the responsibility was on him, and he didn't intend to share it.But Fernando seems to be going to a showdown this time.

He thought for a while, and felt that since it had been uncovered, there was no need to continue to cover it up: "Then Fernando, what do you think is the gap between us?"

Ali said so, but Fernando didn't have to worry about how to start.He took a sip of the red wine with a smile and said, "It's because I underestimated you."

Li Sheng didn't speak.Just listen to him go on.

"I don't deny it. I investigated you. In the investigation, you are a very poor businessman. So I am worried that you will not be able to run the farm well."

After listening to him, Li Sheng smiled and said, "I don't think the point is here."

"Yes, the point is that I want to interfere with the operation of Silent Farm." Fernando said without hesitation. "I hope Silent Farm operates according to my ideas. But I have overlooked one very important factor. That is, your attitude towards Silent Farm."

He didn't need to fully explain, he believed that Li Sheng was a smart man and knew what he was talking about.

Li Sheng really knew what he was talking about.At the beginning, he regarded Fernando as a partner like a friend. Although he was not as good as Chen Bo, he was at least trustworthy.But later, Fernando often ran the farm and made various suggestions.Perhaps those suggestions are pertinent.But that's not what he needs.

If Fernando's suggestion is followed, the farm will be fully commercialized.That was definitely not what he wanted.Although Fernando didn't use any pressure, it also made him feel uneasy.Now that the other party has brought it up, he really wants to hear what the other party has to say.

"It's understandable to want to be the leader in the cooperation!" Li Sheng is not hypocritical, but really thinks that way, otherwise he would not continue to cooperate with the other party.Dominance can be won by others, but he can also control it.

Fernando smiled and said: "Yes, I want to fight for the leadership. But I, Raimondo and Ali have talked, and I think that at least this cooperation, the leader can only be you. Because the resources are in your hands."

Ali would now chime in and say, "Listen to Fernando, you said the farm could only be like this if it was in your hands. We can't even bet you're bragging. In fact, I investigated you too, Lee. You sold me those Although the gold sand is not large in size, it is impossible to transport dozens of tons of gold to Kuwait without any traces. But I have never been able to find out how you did it. I think it contains your secret. I Don't want to go into it, but I think that will be a guarantee for our cooperation."

Li Sheng was not worried that someone would check him.As long as you don't expose yourself, it is impossible for others to find out.Otherwise, he wouldn't be so high-profile.He felt that no matter how much he guessed, no one would do anything to him.On the contrary, a proper mystery will make people dare not underestimate him.

Fernando interjected: "We value the grass of Silent Farm very much. In the case of considerable profits, I don't dare to bet whether the farm will be like what you said after taking over the farm. I don't want the land just sold, either. Come back to me again."

Li Sheng didn't care how much of what they said was true, since they all said so, he just listened to it that way.Anyway, you can listen to his words and watch his actions.He smiled and said, "Everyone has secrets, and of course I do too. And I plan to bring this secret into the coffin. I also hope that we can cooperate happily."

Ali said at this time: "So, can the price of pasture be reduced a little? Li, you have to know that the transportation cost is quite high now. One thousand reais per ton is a bit high."

Li Sheng knew what Ali meant, and he would benefit the most from this cooperation.And more than everyone else combined.Ali raised this point, not without reason.In fact, he was the one who made the least profit in this cooperation project.

Everyone else can benefit from something else.For example, both Fernando and Chen Bo can obtain additional benefits through the sale of beef, and Raimondo can obtain more family resources because this project benefits the family.And he can only get the benefits in the shares.

Although Li Sheng didn't think so, he raised it, which also represented the common appeal of Raimondo, Fernando and him.Li Sheng couldn't ignore this.

He thought for a while and said, "I can ship at nine hundred per ton. This is the lowest price."

In fact, Ali’s request that Li Sheng lower the price is just a test. If Li Sheng does not lower the price, they will still make money and will not terminate the cooperation.But Li Sheng can give some of the benefits, but it can make them feel better.If the price is reduced by [-] reais, it means that Ali, who has the least shareholding, can also benefit from [-] reais per ton of pasture.

Li Sheng made such a decision because he also felt that cooperation required appropriate compromises.Now that the other party has clearly promised to hand over the initiative of this cooperation to him, it is also reasonable for him to make concessions in terms of interests.

In this regard, Fernando was also a pleasant surprise. He did not expect Ali to ask for a price reduction, and Li Sheng directly lowered it by [-] reais.He smiled and said, "After I go back, I will prepare a new contract." He believes that the other partners have no reason to disagree with Li Sheng's price cut.

He got up and poured two glasses of red wine, and said, "Li, there is actually one more thing." He took out an invitation card as he spoke. "I'm getting married in a month, and I hope you can attend."

Li Sheng took a look at it and said with a smile, "Congratulations. The wedding is being held in the Maldives? I will attend on time."

In this winter, holding a wedding in Europe is really not very good. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Fernando chose to hold it in the Maldives.

"Li, you don't seem to have a real private jet yet. And I think, after you built such a long runway, you should also plan to buy a large private jet." Ali said suddenly.

Although the three of them were still negotiating just now, Li Sheng felt that the matter had been settled, and the three of them could talk more.He did not deny that he did have the intention to buy a large aircraft: "I do have that idea. It's just that I haven't decided to buy that model. And trustworthy aircraft models, orders are placed for a long time. I plan to think about it later."

In fact, he has already customized an E195 after negotiating with the business representative sent by Embraer.That plane would be converted into a passenger plane with seating for thirty first-class seats.Together with the modification fee, it needs about 4000 million US dollars.However, the range of the plane is still too short, only about [-] kilometers.If he really wants to cross the Pacific Ocean without refueling, he really needs to buy another large plane.

Ali smiled and said: "I think there is a model that is very suitable for you, the Airbus A35, which is the latest ultra-long-range wide-body airliner of Airbus. It has good safety and comfort, and the flight cost is not too high. High. Of course, the most important thing is that it is in stock."

Li Sheng was taken aback for a moment. When he was thinking about it before, he also paid more attention to the A350.He only hesitated when he saw that the Airbus order was several years away.How come there is a spot in Ali's mouth?

Seeing his doubts, Ali smiled and said: "The assets of a rich man in Russia have been seized all the time, and he ordered an A350-1000 private jet before. Now the plane has been built, but he has no way to pay the balance .So the plane has been kept in stock. As far as I know, that buyer has already decided to default. If you have too high requirements for the design of the plane's interior, you should be able to buy that plane at a lower price."

Anyone who can buy a private jet like the A350 is definitely a rich man.Even if he wanted to buy a private jet of that model, he would not buy someone else's custom-made one.They don't lack that money.So after the plane was built, no one cared about it.Of course, although Airbus is losing money, it will not lose too much, because the rich man has at least paid a deposit.

Li Sheng was indeed a little tempted.He doesn't have too many requirements for the interior design of the aircraft, as long as it is comfortable.If it is really possible to buy such an aircraft in the short term.Whether it is customized according to his wishes is not what he values.

Fernando also saw that he was moved, and said: "If you are interested, you can actually contact Airbus and ask them to give you the information. You can take a look first, and then decide whether to go to see the plane."

Li Sheng nodded and said, "I will think about it."

He bought a private jet not to show off anything, but just for the convenience of travel.If the plane fits, he can buy it.But he was thinking at this moment, after buying the plane, it doesn't mean that everything will be fine.You also need to maintain a unit, and you also need to find an airport for maintenance.

Money is not the key, the key is that he needs to find such a person and an airport willing to undertake the maintenance of the aircraft.But that seems to be about money again.If you have money, you are not afraid to find it.

As for the money, the payment on the form Fernando gave him just now should be enough to buy the plane.

So he did decide to take a good look at that plane that Ali was talking about.
