Chapter 120
"Mr. Chen, I have brought over the property for sale in the Western Link with a pier, there are two places in total, and they are still next to each other, you see. Director Luo took the two materials for sale.
Although this piece is not under the management of Director Luo, Chen Zhixue usually looks for him more in HSBC, anyway, as a company executive, he can also make decisions about this, help sell it, and get a commission, why not do it.
Chen Zhixue took the two documents and looked at them carefully, and there were photos on the materials, which was very convenient.
The first information, with an area of 80,000 square meters, has a warehouse of more than 50,000 square meters, and is equipped with a deep-sea cargo terminal, with a price of 30 million.
The second information, with an area of 150,000 square meters, has a five-storey office building, three two-storey factory buildings, a dormitory building and a deep-sea cargo terminal, with a price of 60 million.
Since the location is very close to the city center, only four or five kilometers away from Central, the price is much more expensive than the property Chen Zhixue bought before, which is also normal.
"Director Luo is free, why don't you take me for a tour? Chen Zhixue did not make up his mind, but put forward a request to visit.
According to the development of Hong Kong Island, it will not take ten years to develop there, so it is very cost-effective to buy it.
"Mr. Chen, it just so happens that I'm not busy with work today, so I'll take you over to have a look. Minister Luo nodded.
"Get in my car, I'll send you back after the tour. In the parking lot, seeing that Minister Luo was about to drive, Chen Zhixue proposed.
Rolls-Royce drove out of the HSBC parking lot, about 20 minutes, and arrived at a place with a relatively wide view.
Looking back towards Central, the tall buildings are clearly visible, but the road is a dirt road, and in the vicinity, there is a bare hill in the back, a blue sea in front, and a slum of shacks in the west.
"According to the advantages of this location, there should be a lot of mansions built in this area in the future. Chen Zhixue thought in his heart.
In the 70s, the population of Hong Kong Island was still about 4 million, unlike the era before Chen Zhixue's crossing, the population had reached more than 7 million, which was nearly double the population increase.
Therefore, there are still many places on Hong Kong Island that have not been developed.
"Mr. Chen, this is a sand steak warehouse, and the one in the distance is a property of the British-funded company British Group on Hong Kong Island, which is currently in abandonment. Minister Luo introduced.
Chen Zhixue nodded and asked, "Is there any reason why these two properties have relatively high walls?"
This is where Chen Zhixue is more curious, the walls of these two places are built with a height of about 2 meters, and Chen Zhixue has not built such a high wall in those industrial zones before, and there is an iron mesh on the wall, which is a little strange.
"That's the case, because the vicinity is relatively remote, and there is no police station nearby, so there are many associations here to gather to make trouble, so the owners have no choice but to build these walls, the warehouse belongs to a Chinese-funded boss, and since last year, it was forced to reluctantly put up for sale here, and the property with the factory began to be put up for sale in April this year, and I heard that the boss behind it is ready to evacuate Hong Kong Island, so the factory has also been suspended, so it is planned to put it up for sale. Minister Luo explained.
"Do people often make trouble here? It's a little bit tricky. Chen Zhixue was a little entangled, but he was not afraid of people making trouble, but he was afraid that he would scare away those technical researchers.
Let's buy it first, no matter how many there are, aren't these shortcomings just right to be used to negotiate the price!
The two properties are locked, so Chen Zhixue can't see clearly what is going on inside.
"Can you get in? I want to go in and have a look. Chen Zhixue asked.
"I'm going to knock on the door and see if there's someone guarding inside. Minister Luo said.
Minister Luo patted on the iron door, and there was a sentence of "who", listening to the voice, it should be an old man.
"Uncle, we are HSBC staff and bring guests over to see this land. Minister Luo said.
There is a hole in the iron door, just enough to see the situation outside.
Maybe the owner explained to the old man, this place will be sold at any time, after a while, the iron door opened, it was a fifty or sixty-year-old uncle, his hair was a little gray, and his spirit was quite vigorous.
"Come in. "Uncle is wearing a military uniform, and you can feel that his hands and feet are very sharp from his movements, and he should be an old man who has been a soldier.
This is the sand storage warehouse, there are a lot of iron houses built in it, the scale is not small, from the door to the north, it is the seaside, there is a small dock by the sea, it seems that it can still be used normally.
"I've been here for more than a year, and people often come here to watch, but it's either too expensive or too dangerous, and people often come here to fight, so you can watch it as you like. Uncle glanced at a few people casually, and after speaking, he picked up the hoe next to him and began to hoe the grass.
It turned out that Uncle had opened up a vegetable plot of more than ten square meters in the open space next to the gate, and a lot of vegetables were planted on it.
This little old man is an interesting character, doesn't he want others to buy this place?
When others come to see the land, he will definitely not be able to stop it, after all, if it is passed to the boss, it is estimated that he will not even have a salary.
Here, with a place to live and a salary, it is very easy, and it is no wonder that the old man ignores them and threatens them.
Chen Zhixue shook his head amusedly, and regardless of the little old man, he visited the neighborhood.
The warehouses are still sturdy, without a trace of dilapidation, and should have been used to store import and export materials in the past.
This warehouse is only separated by a wall from the factory building of the British-funded enterprise next door, and at the wharf, Chen Zhixue can even see the freight wharf next door, which is much larger than this side, after all, it is a British-funded enterprise, and it is normal to be strong.
"Let's go over next door and have a look. Chen Zhixue said.
Director Luo nodded.
The 150,000-square-meter factory is nearly twice as large as the warehouse next door, with office buildings, workshops, dormitories, warehouses and docks.
There are a few more guards than the sand warehouse next door, but they are easier to speak, and they took the lead in introducing the specific situation here to Chen Zhixue in detail.
Coming out of the park, Chen Zhixue and the others have been walking around these two places for nearly two hours, and they can be regarded as very familiar with the situation here.
It took about 20 minutes for the car to drive back to the head office of HSBC.
"How is Mr. Chen feeling?" asked Director Luo.
"Director Luo, I have considered both places, but I think the price is too high, I hope you can help me negotiate the price. Chen Zhixue thought for a while and said.
"I don't know what Mr. Chen's psychological price is, if it's too low, the owner probably won't agree. Director Luo thought for a moment, and then said.
"The warehouse is 25 million, the factory park is 50 million, I hope that HSBC will help me negotiate the price, and if they agree, the deal will be completed immediately. Chen Zhixue replied.
