187 Calling Each Other Brothers, Luo Feng’s Seniority
“It must be very expensive to do this, right?” Father Xie asked.
Luo Feng did not hide anything. “It can only be considered not earning money now. The time to burn money is still ahead.”
They were all smart people. There was no need to lie.
Father Xie pinched his chin and thought for a moment. He frowned and said, “How about this? I’ll invest in you.”
“No!” Xie Yan was the first to object!
Father Xie glared at him, expecting better. He had just gone against his father in public, and Father Xie had yet to settle scores with him. Now, he came out to object. He had really grown up.
He ignored Xie Yan and said to Luo Feng, “I’m very interested in your suggestion. How about this? I don’t want more shares. I remember that your earliest shareholdings were 51%. Just give me the rest.”
Luo Feng understood that Father Xie wanted to help them. He was worried that the company did not have money and wanted to send some over. The reason why he only bought 10% of the shares meant that he did not covet Luo Feng’s controlling rights.
Perhaps he was afraid that Xie Yan would disagree.
At the end of the day, there was no such thing as overnight enmity between father and son. After going around in circles, as a father, he still could not let go of his son. Fatherly love was wordless. Perhaps this was what Father Xie was talking about.
Luo Feng, who was a bystander, was a little touched.
Now it was his turn to frown.
Why didn’t Father Xie want more shares since he wanted it anyway? Luo Feng was a little depressed. It’s your son’s company anyway. You don’t have to be so polite…
Luo Feng still could not farm much money for the remaining 51% of the shares.
Actually, the matter of shares was very simple. The company was not big and was not listed currently. As long as Luo Feng agreed to the share transaction, it would be fine.
The problem was the company’s valuation…
Previously, when Luo Feng took out 20 million yuan, his shares increased from 51% to 70%. At that time, his valuation was about 100 million yuan.
To be honest, it was not a small number.
After nearly two months of development, Gather Sift Takeaway’s flow and user size were no longer comparable to back then.
Even though they were still in the losing stage, anyone who had a little contact with internet companies knew that they basically did not look at profits.
The group of people lowered their heads and calculated for a long time before they finally understood the current valuation.
300 million yuan!
They might currently cover only one city but the city they started was at the forefront of national development. Moreover, it was almost a monopoly in this city.
It was not a big problem to support a valuation of 300 million yuan.
According to the current valuation, Father Xie needed about 67 million yuan to buy 20% of the shares from Luo Feng.
“80,000,000!” Father Xie’s price was higher than expected.
Even though he was in the real economy and didn’t know much about the Internet, with the current development speed of the Internet, it was a blessing for Father Xie to be in the game now. If Xie Yan hadn’t insisted, he might not have been touched.
“Deal!” Luo Feng nodded.
Previously, he had invested 20 million yuan. In two months, he made a return of 80 million yuan. Compared to the profits, he would definitely earn less. However, he did not rely on this to earn money. There was money to be earned. He would be a fool not to take it.
“Great!” Father Xie raised his head and laughed. “From now on, we’re all on the same side. Let’s go, I’ll treat everyone to a meal!”
Father Xie changed so quickly that Xie Yan had yet to react. He stood there in a daze, feeling like he was in a dream.
His father had really been convinced by Luo Feng!
Not only did he convince him, but he also bought back a portion of the shares. In other words, his father supported him?!
Father Xie was also a little confused. He had originally come to cause trouble after all. Now, he had suddenly joined a conglomerate company and even became “one of our own” with a group of children.
In the end, he still couldn’t bear to part with Xie Yan. He wanted to join if his persuasion failed and support him.
He called the employees in the office beside him. There were about a hundred of them in total. It was not easy for them to find a suitable hotel, so they took up seven to eight tables.
Luo Feng and Xie Yan were already sitting at a table, including the new shareholder, Xie Yan’s father.
“I’ll toast to Chairman Luo first!” Father Xie took the initiative to raise his wine glass and put away his wild attitude. He was very polite to Luo Feng. “My attitude was bad previously. Please forgive me.”
It was true that Luo Feng was the boss, but he could not stand the politeness of his elders.
He quickly bowed and said, “Uncle, you’re too polite. Xie Yan and I are classmates.”
He could not help but feel a little emotional. Father Xie, whom he had just met, was indeed a little unreasonable. He was also fierce and evil to Xie Yan. However, in terms of apologizing to his juniors, Father Xie had already surpassed many adults.
It was no wonder that he could do business so well with his bad temper.
Father Xie punished himself by drinking three glasses of wine. After drinking tons of wine, his heart opened up a lot. He sincerely wanted to get closer to Luo Feng. “I know my silly son well. I’ll have to trouble you to take care of him in the future!”
Luo Feng did not have much of a taste for wine. However, as an elder, Father Xie’s attitude was rather humble. He drank cup after cup, and Luo Feng had no choice but to drink cup after cup.
The two of them started to call each other brothers as they drank. They were both a little confused.
Xie Yan panicked and advised, “Luo Feng, don’t compete with my father in drinking. He can hold his alcohol!”
A colleague at the side asked curiously, “Really? Your father can hold his liquor so well?”
Those who dared to say “able to hold his alcohol” at the table did not dare to say such words easily without the exciting results of drinking at a table full of people. It could not help but pique the interest of others.
Xie Yan looked at Luo Feng pitifully and said humbly, “Let’s put it this way. My father went out to discuss something. As long as he drank, the other party would either be under the table or on the way to the hospital.”
There was nothing that Father Xie couldn’t negotiate at a drinking table.
Hearing this, Luo Feng sobered up.
This might be Father Xie’s trick to doing business. Ordinary people really couldn’t learn it.
However, Luo Feng did not care too much. Previously, with the augmentation of the medicine, his liver was much better than in his previous life. In addition, he had taken good care of himself in this world, so it was not a problem for him to drink some wine.
“It’s fine! I’ll definitely drink to my heart’s content with Uncle since we got along on our first meeting today!” Luo Feng raised his wine glass and left with Father Xie.
Father Xie was also quite happy. He did not reject any toast and poured it all into his stomach like vanilla.
Xie Yan couldn’t stop him even if he wanted to. He could only watch from the side.
Then… he saw his father lying on the table, his face as red as a lantern.
This was the first time Xie Yan had seen his father drink so much. He called out in surprise, “Dad?”
Father Xie leaned on the table and gave Luo Feng a thumbs up. He said vaguely, “Chairman Luo, I’m impressed. You’re this! I’ll acknowledge you as my brother today! Just tell me if you need anything in the future! I’ll definitely help you!”
What kind of relationship has it become?! Xie Yan didn’t know how to complain!
