Chapter 386 Ross Family

"So, you're the boss of Qingyun Company, right? I'm from the Ross Family. Perhaps you have not heard of our family, but if you inquire about us with some powerful forces in the West, you'd know about us. Remember not to ask the lesser powers..." Approaching Lin Yun, the blonde young man lifted his chin in a manner brimming with arrogance.

His heart was brimming with pride, but it was warranted.

The Ross Family was one that controlled a substantial secret power in the West. Some well-known Western families were merely branches of the Ross Family, showcasing their immense influence and power.

"I am aware of the Ross Family. What is the reason for your request to meet me?" Lin Yun replied, nodding slightly.

Indeed, he was aware of the Ross Family. Ever since his purchase of some powerful surveillance equipment, he had overviewed a lot of top-tier information on Earth. The Ross Family was one of them.

"As long as you know about our Ross Family, we're good to negotiate," the blonde young man replied, brimming with characteristic confidence. It was a testament to his absolute trust in his family's power.

"Do you realize the exceptional power of the construction technology your Qingyun Company controls? Do you have any idea how good the skyscrapers you build are? You can construct such a building in just a few days. This is remarkable! It's construction technology that could sweep the world! This can amass wealth unimaginable to the world.

Do you understand what I'm talking about?" The blonde young man spoke fast, his tone increasingly enthusiastic as he gestured with his hands.

"Such desirable property! And you're giving it away to those Indians? You're even giving it to them for free while also providing them with attractive salaries. That's something only a madman would do. Even if you intend to advertise and quickly expand your influence, this isn't the way..."

"Food, clothing, shelter, transportation - these are the basic needs of every human. Among these, housing is significantly essential to every individual in the world. The extravagant craving for a house persists in some nations, with countless instances of people willing to go to great lengths to attain one. Mr. Lin, you originate from Huaxia, so you must be clearly aware of the situation there.

The citizens of Huaxia are among those people. Due to some circumstances, the real estate prices in Huaxia have escalated exorbitantly in recent years..."

"Let me be frank with you. In recent years, our Ross Family has been actively involved in Huaxia's real estate market. In just ten years, we have reaped a profit of three trillion Huaxia Currency, a figure that's nothing short of terrifying! Compared to this figure, what does the so-called richest individual in Huaxia matter, or even the richest families?

Keep this in mind; this is only the wealth we have earned through Huaxia's real estate. There is also the real estate of various other countries..." the blonde young man laughed.

"What I'm suggesting is this - the Ross Family has significant involvement in the real estate business, and the construction technology of Qingyun Company is marvellously advanced. If we integrate our resources, we can amass the wealth of any nation within a year. I promise that I can bring a fortune of more than ten trillion Huaxia Currency to the Qingyun Company within a single year..."

With confidence radiating off him, the blonde young man raised a finger.

A fortune equivalent to ten trillion Huaxia Currency within one year would cause even the Ross Family to go mad. He believed anyone hearing this would not disregard these colossal figures. So, by comparison, how much money would Qingyun Company make just by selling Qingyun cell phones?

Of course, the Qingyun phone was quite good. However, producing the Qingyun phone would need a substantial investment. In his opinion, the returns from Qingyun phone sales were incomparable to those from real estate. It seemed to him like Qingyun Company was focusing too much on the trivial profits.

Listening to the blonde young man, Lin Yun squinted his eyes.

The Ross Family had managed to plunder a profit of three trillion Huaxia Currency from the Huaxia real estate market. That was truly unbelievable. Exactly how large was the Huaxia real estate market? Judging by this, the so-called bigwigs of Huaxia's real estate business were insignificant!

However, Lin Yun held no affection for these people; it was because of people like them that many were enslaved by housing mortgages for life. Lin Yun had encountered numerous instances of this.

In his view, houses were nothing but prisons where people were confined, working from dawn till dusk without allowing themselves the luxury of proper meals or clothing, or even holidays. Many people dedicated most, if not all, of their lives to repaying housing loans.

The actual cost required for a house was not high; it shouldn't have been like this. If the housing market collapsed, Lin Yun estimated that it would also cause the mental disruption of many citizens burdened with immense housing loans. This was a scenario of societal imbalance.

"As for the quality of the Qingyun Building, how much do you think each square meter would sell for?" said Lin Yun, looking at the blonde young man.

Hearing Lin Yun ask this question, the blonde young man's eyes lit up, believing he had persuaded Lin Yun.

"Our Ross Family has been involved in the real estate business in many countries. I, myself, have seen many luxury properties, but I have never come across buildings of such exceptional quality. It's hard to believe that in such a gigantic building occupying an expansive area, the environment could be so inviting..." the blonde young man chuckled.

"If placed in top-tier cities, such as Huaxia's Shanghai, Shen City, the Capital City, New York of the American Empire, and London of the UK, I'm confident of selling it for fifty thousand US dollars per square meter, roughly about three hundred thousand Huaxia Currency per square meter.

Even if it were in this place, I'm confident of selling it for at least twenty thousand Huaxia Currency per square meter, which is far better than giving it away for free to those Indians..." the blonde young man confidently said.

"For such an exceptional building, what do you think the construction cost will be like?" Lin Yun replied, shaking his head. "Without waiting for the answer, he continued: "The built-up area of the Qingyun Building lies between seventy and eighty million square meters.

Even if we take the construction and interior decoration cost at five thousand Huaxia Currency per square meter, it amounts to about four trillion Huaxia Currency..."

"For ten buildings, it would cost forty trillion Huaxia Currency. For over twenty buildings, the cost would exceed one hundred trillion Huaxia Currency. I can afford to overlook such a vast sum. So why do you think I would care about the profit you're talking about?"

Lin Yun said, seemingly aloof.

"Couldn't it be? Are you providing these Indians with free housing unconditionally? Could it be that your actions aren't driven by the intent of reaping a bigger profit?" The blonde young man gasped, looking utterly shocked.

In his eyes, the actions of Qingyun Company ought to be motivated by some gains. It couldn't be that they gave away something for nothing. How could there possibly be such fools in this world?

For example, it was plausible if they intended to expand their influence rapidly. Presently, the Qingyun Building was renowned worldwide, and they had achieved great success in that aspect.

For instance, they could give away a part of their properties and sell the rest. Humans are social creatures. The value of a place increases if it has an adequate population. In this manner, despite giving away some of the properties, they could make even more profit.

"If you're not satisfied with a profit of ten trillion Huaxia Currency in a year, we can renegotiate. You must understand that to sell a residential property at a high price isn't solely about constructing it. It involves various operations, and even our Ross Family will have to put in a lot of effort..." On quickly thinking about other potential reasons, the blonde young man hastily said.

"I presume you did not consult with the senior executives of your family before coming here?" Lin Yun calmly asked.

"What do you mean?" The blonde young man, taken aback, asked.

Indeed, he had come here without consulting with the senior executives of his family. In his opinion, the rise of Qingyun Company was so rapid that the senior executives of his family might not have taken notice. If he could reach an agreement with Qingyun Company before that, it would be a significant achievement for him. Explore more at empire

"Had you consulted with your family, they would not have asked you to discuss this matter with me. Now, you may leave," said Lin Yun, shaking his head.

After finishing his statement, Lin Yun turned around and left.

The Ross Family was also among the top families globally, and they should be aware of his affairs. Even if they wanted to negotiate this with him, they wouldn't have sent such an inexperienced young man to discuss and negotiate, especially with such naive arguments.

However, even if the senior executives from this family were to come forward, he would not collaborate with them. Setting aside his abhorrence towards these people, the Earth's currency was not his current goal.
