“Dear friend, I will take you to the island owner’s house to discuss the details of the island transfer and the transaction tax.”
“Okay, lead the way,” Chen Ze replied.
The white man led Chen Ze and the others onto the yacht, and then returned to Athens.
Five minutes later, the yacht returned to the dock, and everyone disembarked one after another.
Mary approached Chen Ze and said, "Hello, Mr. Chen, my work time is up, and I need to go back to school now. Could you please pay me my wages?"
Um... Europeans never linger after get off work; they don't want to stay even a minute longer. Chen Ze respected this habit of theirs and immediately took out his wallet, pulled out three hundred euros, and handed it to her.
Mary happily accepted the money: "Thank you! If you need anything else tomorrow, remember to contact me!"
She winked playfully and pouted, giving Chen Ze a cute little expression.
Seeing this, Chen Ze couldn't help but laugh, and he laughed heartily: "Okay, no problem."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a car horn sound, and then two black sedans drove towards them and came to a smooth stop in front of them.
The white real estate agent maintained a professional smile throughout, bowing slightly with elegant and gentlemanly movements: "Dear valued guest, our company car has arrived. Please get in."
Chen Ze and the others got into the car.
Soon after, the car arrived at a magnificent, traditional European luxury manor villa.
The white man quickly got out of the car, walked briskly to the gate, and gently pressed the doorbell twice.
A moment later, the door made a slight noise and slowly opened inward.
The first thing that catches the eye is a girl wearing a floral dress that perfectly accentuates her curvaceous figure. Paired with her sea-blue eyes, she looks as beautiful as an elf from a magical world.
Chen Ze was stunned and secretly amazed. He had been to the United States and Britain and had seen many beautiful white women, but compared to the woman in front of him, he paled in comparison.
Especially her exquisite features, which bear a striking resemblance to the famous Hollywood movie star Christina Aguilera, are so beautiful that it's hard to look away.
The girl's name is Amy. She is 21 years old. Her family runs a canned fish company and a candy company. Due to the Greek debt crisis from 2009 to 2010, tens of thousands of small and medium-sized enterprises went bankrupt, and her family was one of them.
After the real estate agent explained his purpose to her, Amy opened the gate completely and let the car drive into the villa.
After the car was parked in the designated spot, everyone got out of the car one after another.
Amy led them into the villa's hall, where a middle-aged man with a stubble beard was drinking beer on the sofa. Beer bottles were scattered haphazardly at his feet, indicating that he had already drunk quite a bit.
Judging from his expression, he was in a bad mood. His wife, who was standing next to him, advised him, "Honey, don't drink anymore. We have guests."
Amy cautiously approached her father and whispered, "Dad, someone has expressed interest in buying that island you listed with the real estate agency. Would you like to talk to them?"
Her eyes were full of expectation, hoping that the news would cheer up her father, who had been depressed for a long time.
Seeing this, the real estate agent standing to the side quickly chimed in, "Mr. Louis, haven't you always wanted to sell this island? Now you've finally met a benefactor! This customer is willing to offer a full thirty million euros to buy it!"
Upon hearing the words "buy an island," Louis, who had been indifferent and was chugging beer from his bottle, finally stopped.
More than a year has passed since the company went bankrupt. During this time, he seems to have lost his direction and motivation in life, and spends his days indulging in the temporary numbness brought by alcohol in order to escape the predicament of reality.
At this moment, Louis was filled with bitterness. Because of the company's bankruptcy, he not only owed a huge amount of debt, but also had to borrow a lot of money from relatives and friends.
He owed a staggering 50 million euros in loans to banks alone; and the 10 million euros he borrowed from relatives and friends weighed heavily on him, making it hard to breathe.
The once-glorious candy company was ultimately sold off for a paltry ten million euros, with all the proceeds used to fill the bottomless debt gap.
Even so, he still owes 50 million euros, and the cannery remains unsold with no takers.
The wife and daughter quickly tidied up the food on the coffee table and the beer bottles on the floor.
Louis stood up and shook hands with Chen Ze, saying politely, "Distinguished guest, please have a seat."
After Chen Ze sat down, he said directly, "Mr. Louis, if you have no objection to the price of thirty million euros, we can go directly to process the transfer registration."
“I have no problem with the price of the island, but I have other things to sell. I wonder if you’d be interested?” Louis began to consider his own options.
Chen Ze asked, puzzled, "Mr. Louis, you wouldn't be thinking of selling this estate, would you?"
Louis quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, Mr. Chen, this is my ancestral home and cannot be sold. What I want to sell is a yacht and a fish canning company. The canning company is priced at 7.5 million euros, the yacht at 3.2 million euros, for a total of 10.7 million euros."
A canned fish food company? He wasn't optimistic about that kind of food company, but he could accept the yacht, since he would definitely need to buy a yacht to go to Anya Island.
