Lu Fan frowned in deep thought.
If it were someone else, he probably wouldn't have any worries.
But when it came to dealing with the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, he really had no way to handle him.
Putting aside the crown prince's status, just considering the crown prince's net worth alone, he probably can't compete with him.
After all, he bought that piece of land to make money.
If the price is driven too high, there is no need to buy it.
He's not stupid; he wouldn't invest in something that doesn't make money.
"Did Uncle Han say what the Crown Prince wants that land for?"
Lu Fan asked the question, which was of great importance to him.
Logically speaking, there should be an oil field hidden beneath that land, and no one else could possibly know about it except for himself.
But now he couldn't understand why a prince would suddenly take a fancy to such a run-down place.
"He didn't say, and it's unclear what he specifically wanted to do."
"I'll probably only find out when I see your Uncle Han in the future."
"Xiao Fan, how confident are you about that piece of land?"
Jiang Hetang changed the subject and asked Lu Fan, who was deep in thought.
"If we can secure it, I'm 80% confident, and the profits will be enormous!"
Lu Fan knew exactly what his father-in-law meant by asking how confident he was. He could have said 100%, but there was no need.
"Alright, if you're so confident, then let's give it a shot. What about the crown prince? It's not like we can't compete for it!"
Jiang Hetang showed his domineering side.
He was able to start from scratch and squeeze into the top 30 of the rich list on his own. This kind of courage is something that Lu Fan does not have.
Moreover, as a businessman, Jiang Hetang knew what the 80% Lu Fan mentioned meant.
"Okay, let's go over there first and see what Uncle Han has to say!"
Lu Fan took a deep breath and said.
Of course he wanted to fight for it, knowing that the return on this investment was incredibly high.
After saying that, the father-in-law and son-in-law got into the car and headed towards Han Gang's manor.
"Old Jiang, you've arrived!"
Just as they got out of the car, Han Gang returned from outside and they met at the entrance of the manor.
"Old Han, what's the situation now?"
Jiang Hetang was the first to speak and ask.
"Let's talk as we walk!"
After saying that, the two followed Han Gang into the manor.
“Pierce messaged me this morning saying that a prince has taken a fancy to Muska Lake.”
"I just learned from the higher-ups that Prince Amule of Shat plans to develop Mustka Tso into a tourist area!"
As they walked, Han Gang recounted the whole story.
Upon hearing this, Lu Fan couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
The money was all earmarked for building a landfill, but a prince went to develop it into a tourist area.
That reason is so ridiculous, even a ghost wouldn't believe it.
And what a coincidence! Just last night they said they wanted to buy land in Muskacuo, and today a prince came to their door.
There's no such thing as a coincidence in the world.
Ultimately, it's nothing more than an attempt to raise prices arbitrarily.
The three of them, sitting in this manor, were not fools; they all knew what was going on.
But so what? This is someone else's territory.
Even though the reason was lame, we had no choice but to accept it.
The most crucial point now is Lu Fan.
As for Mustak Lake, neither Jiang Hetang nor Han Gang knew its specific value that would pique Lu Fan's interest.
Therefore, they could only turn their attention to Lu Fan.
"The problem isn't too big, and if that piece of land exceeds its due value, I won't blindly throw money into it."
Facing their gazes, Lu Fan calmly said...
They just want to raise prices and make more money.
As long as no one knows about the oil field underneath, Lu Fan will not panic at all.
Just as his father-in-law said, so what if he's a prince? He really didn't believe that a prince would go to such lengths to throw money at a piece of hillside land.
Unless someone's completely out of their mind, though that possibility can't be ruled out.
"Okay, I'm relieved to hear that!"
"In that case, let's head to Sat."
Han Gang's anxiety subsided. He had been worried about Lu Fan, a young man who was arrogant and the world's richest man.
I'm afraid he'll get a little carried away and end up throwing money at a piece of worthless land, especially since I said last night that I'd invest 5% of the shares.
He may be rich, but he doesn't spend his money like that.
Han Gang's concerns were not without merit, but they were unnecessary.
As for Jiang Hetang, he had no such worries at all. He knew Lu Fan's personality; Lu Fan wouldn't do anything he wasn't sure of.
The three boarded Han Gang's private plane, which took off from his manor and headed towards Sarte.
As soon as the plane landed, Han Gang, along with Jiang Hetang and his son-in-law, went directly to Pierce's office.
"Mr. Han Gang, you've arrived!"
Upon seeing that the visitor was Han Gang, Pierce put down his work, stood up, and greeted him.
As the head of the southern district of Sarawak, Pierce did not put on any airs of leadership and spoke in a very kind tone.
"This must be Mr. Lu Fan. He's truly young and accomplished, becoming the world's richest man in his early twenties!"
"I think the nephew Han mentioned must be Mr. Lu!"
Pierce recognized Lu Fan at a glance, which only shows how influential the Forbes rich list is.
In addition, Lu Fan, who is at the top of the list, is very handsome and easily leaves a deep impression on people.
"Mr. Pierce, you flatter me!"
Since he had already been praised, Lu Fan smiled and shook hands with Pierce in a friendly manner out of politeness.
The same applies to Jiang Hetang.
Business is business, and interpersonal relationships are interpersonal relationships; each is a separate matter.
“I think Mr. Pierce is aware of the purpose of our visit. We would like to have a talk. Is this a convenient time for you, Mr. Pierce?”
After shaking hands, Lu Fan said with a smile.
Since both sides already know the truth, there's no need to go through all the roundabout ways.
"I'm so sorry, after Han told me last night, I had already agreed, but this morning Prince Amul came to me wanting to develop Musta Lake into a tourist area, so..."
"Mr. Lu, I'm so sorry, how about you look at other places?"
Pierce said with a hint of apology.
Anyway, that's all I have to say. Now it's up to Lu Fan to decide how to respond.
"Other places are not impossible, but I'm afraid I don't have the capability to access your country's precious lands."
"Mr. Lu is joking!"
Pierce hadn't expected Lu Fan to be so cunning, giving an ambiguous answer to avoid revealing his true intentions.
At this moment, all Pierce could think was, "These Great Xia people are really troublesome."
This applies to both the old and the young!
"I wonder if we could get an audience with His Highness Amul?"
"Perhaps we can have a talk. After all, Muska Lake is so big, there might not be any conflicts in the area."
“Mr. Pierce, you agree, right?”
Lu Fan was no pushover either. Since they were going to talk anyway, it was just a matter of who was in charge behind the scenes.
