âHow much of Feixiang Networkâs stock do we hold now?â Xu Kun asked.
A subordinate replied, âNineteen point eight percent.â
âDamn, thatâs not enough to become the major shareholder, damn that Jiang
Xu!â Xu Kun muttered under his breath.
Then, his mind began to race.
Chen Tian was the major shareholder.
Although he had committed a crime, according to the law, if a shareholderâs property was obtained through illegal activities, the court had the right to seize the property and force the transfer of shares.
When the court forced a shareholder to transfer shares, it should notify the company and all shareholders. Other shareholders had the right to buy them first under the same conditions.
The crime Chen Tian committed was unrelated, so his nearly thirty percent of the shares would not be confiscated.
Xu Kun had previously contacted the other larger shareholders.
Some would not sell, while others asked for a high price of five dollars per share.
Originally, if he could acquire more than ninety percent of the market shares, Xu Kun could have become the majority shareholder of Feixiang Network.
Anger aside.
Still, he had to make phone calls.
But as soon as he dialed, Jiang Xu hung up.
When he called again, Jiang did not answer.
âAt this time, he should be in class. Letâs wait until after class.â
After noon classes, Xu Kun contacted Jiang Xu again.
This time Jiang Xu answered.
He did not go to the canteen, but asked An Nuonuo to help him bring food over.
âMr. Xu, I was in class just now, Iâm sorry.â
As soon as he opened his mouth, Xu Kun knew that Jiang Xu had found out about his family background.
He guessed that Lin Nan had done the investigation.
âHaha, no problem,â Xu Kun laughed: âBoss, Iâll cut the crap. Iâm willing to take the Feixiang Network shares you hold for three dollars a share.â
Jiang Xu bought those shares for about eighty cents each.
That is, a premium of three point seventy-five times.
101.75 million!
Originally, Xu Kun wanted to say two point five, but he felt that Jiang Xu would not agree with his appetite.
Jiang Xu thought for a while and said, âThis number is too messy. How about rounding it up to a whole number, two hundred million?â
Xu Kun: âHeh.â
âHaha, just kidding.â Jiang Xu said solemnly, âHereâs the deal, I can sell all my shares to you. One hundred and fifty million.
Furthermore, we need to sign an agreement stating that you will not engage in any malicious competition with my website for the next five years.
If you donât agree, I will sell my shares to the second and third largest shareholders of Feixiang Network.
And I will inform them about the whole situation.â
It was clear from Jiang Xuâs words that he was determined to deal with Xu Kun and left no room for negotiation.
Xu Kun calculated quickly.
Just over one hundred million was within his bottom line.
He gritted his teeth and said, âFine, letâs make the transaction now.â
Jiang Xu: âOkay, let me have lunch first.â
Xu Kun: âLetâs finish the transaction first, and then Iâll treat you to a feast.â
Jiang Xu: âNo way, is your feast as delicious as the meal cooked by my
Nuonuo?â
Through the screen, Xu Kun was hit by a wave of âdog food.â
It was clear that he did not want to eat.
He felt a little choked.
He hung up the phone directly.
Jiang Xu laughed.
One hundred million!
After deducting the three hundred and thirty thousand he borrowed from An Nuonuo, the six million for Fu Xinghan, and the fifteen million for the house mortgage loan.
In that case, he made a profit of seventy-five million and seventy thousand!
With this money, there were many things Jiang Xu could do.
First of all, Te coins would enter the country in January of next year.
Jiang Xu remembered it clearly.
Back then, bitcoins were extremely cheap.
One US dollar could be exchanged for 1,300 bitcoins.
When converted to domestic currency, one dollar could be exchanged for about 185 bitcoins.
At its peak, one bitcoin was worth nearly 20,000 US dollars.
Given an exchange rate of about one to seven, one bitcoin was worth around
1.6 million yuan.
At that time, all you needed was to buy some and hold onto them.
Then, at the peak, you could sell them in phasesâ¦
Even if Jiang Xu only spent one yuan to buy at that time and sold at its peak, he could make around 300 millionâ¦
He could have encouraged his family to buy some too.
Even if they only spent a hundred yuan, they could slowly sell them at the right time and still make more than a billion.
An Nuonuo returned with food.
The girl opened the lunch box, her pretty face full of joy, âToday the cafeteria had braised pigâs feet, just as the last portion was snatched by me. Eat it quickly.â
She was still so pure and adorable.
Jiang Xu hoped that she would always remain happy and optimistic and not be contaminated by society in the future.
Jiang Xu didnât stand on ceremony and picked up his chopsticks to eat.
After he finished, he told An Nuonuo that if he couldnât return in time that afternoon, to write a leave note for him.
An Nuonuo watched Jiang Xuâs disappearing figure, increasingly concerned about his grades.
Lately, the number of leaves Jiang Xu had been taking was just too high. Thinking about it, An Nuonuo gave up her plan to take a nap in the afternoon. She took out a pen and paper and organized some key knowledge so that Jiang Xu could review it in the evening.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xu met with Xu Kun again.
Jiang Xu also brought the companyâs lawyer.
Since the transaction amount was quite large, the processing of various procedures was somewhat complicated.
They didnât finish until five oâclock in the afternoon.
The money would be transferred to Jiang Xuâs card within three business days.
On his way back, Jiang Xu stopped off to buy some chicken essence and rice noodles. He was going to make stir-fried noodles for dinner.
He loved stir-fried noodles.
Once he got home, he started to prepare it.
When he was finished, around half-past five, An Nuonuo was not yet back.
In a few days, it would be New Yearâs Day.
Jiang Xu called Chen Yue, asking where they were.
âWe are in Second Asia. Weâre not going back for New Yearâs Day, so you guys and Nuonuo prepare some nice food. Got to go now, your father and I are going to have a candlelight dinner.â
Listening to the busy signal on his phone, Jiang Xu was speechless.
Those old folks were really having the time of their lives lately.
Theyâd converted their original shop into a small supermarket, employed two people to run it and then traveled around.
Well.
They probably wouldnât be back until the Lunar New Year.
While An Nuonuo wasnât back yet, Jiang Xu turned on his computer and started writing code.
His skills were now far above entry-level, and he was learning fast.
Next, he planned to create a âLegendaryâ web game.
He would integrate the story content of âMartial Universeâ into it.
And then, advertise it on their own web novel site.
Many loyal fans were reading this novel now.
As long as the game content could perfectly represent the novel, even if the graphics were a bit crude, Jiang Xu believed most readers would accept it.
This was an assignment he had set for himself.
An Nuonuo didnât come back until half-past six.
Her eyes were dull and she looked very tired.
Jiang Xu gently stroked her face, feeling a pang of sympathy, âSit down and
rest a bit. Iâll stir-fry the noodles now, and theyâll be ready soon.â
âBig brother,â An Nuonuo suddenly grabbed Jiang Xuâs sleeve.
Her voice shook with tears, her eyes red and swollen, threatening to cry at any
moment..
