Chapter 240: Departure to Mongolia
Faye Webb said it three times, and Yusuf Zuck also drilled it into his memory three times. Of course, after Faye Webb repeated it thrice, she got up and left, directing Yusuf Zuck to digest and assimilate the information on his own, and told him to seek her out once he had committed it to memory.
Yusuf Zuck truly did remember it, his memory, already freakishly strong, had retained it after the first pass, but remembering was not the same as knowing it by heart, so he sat in the training room and carefully went over it for a while.
Around ten o’clock, he went out because it was the agreed-upon time.
In the living room on the first floor, two people had arrived, a man and a woman who looked to be husband and wife, both around forty-six or forty-seven years old.
"Here he comes, this is the wealthy man, Yusuf Zuck, that I told you about," Everest Zuck took the initiative to stand and introduce: "Yusuf Zuck, this is the director of Inner Mongolia Xing’an Pharmaceuticals, Mr. King, and his wife. Well, you two can talk, I won’t interfere." Having said that, Everest Zuck departed with Faye Webb.
"Mr. Zuck, please have a seat, take a seat!" Mr. King wasn’t old but had half a head of white hair, presenting a weathered appearance. His wife, however, had an elegant demeanor, like a still-charming and graceful lady.
"I am Sonny King, and this is my wife, Sadie Blevins!" Mr. King introduced himself and his wife proactively.
"Mr. King, Mrs. King, let’s cut to the chase," Yusuf Zuck began, "Your situation was explained to me by brother Everest Zuck yesterday, and I indeed have an interest in investing. However, I cannot accept a 40% ownership stake. Given the current situation, even if I were to invest two billion, it would only be like a drop in the bucket for the factory, merely solving the immediate crisis. For the company to recover its vitality, it would probably take at least three years or more."
"This means that if I were to invest two billion to fill your gap, I would also be incurring losses continuously over these three years. Not only would I make no profit, but I also wouldn’t even earn bank interest. Even after stabilizing three years later and starting to generate returns, it might take ten to twenty years for me to recoup my two billion principal, right?"
"Mr. Zuck is correct," Sadie Blevins nodded, Yusuf Zuck seemed to have really done his homework, and what he was saying was the truth.
