Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 858 Catherine pointed to the large dragon motif and said, âIf itâs a plate from the Kangxi period, it should have a history of at least several hundred years, and the jade should have been silicified long ago.
Look, this area is too reflective, and in this spot, the glaze is too uneven. But itâs a good imitation. I offer two thousand.â
The sellerâs face was crimson in embarrassment by Catherineâs claim.
Mr. Kawada glared at him. âYou used a fake to scam me. You think Iâm easy to fool because Iâm not Chinese?â
âIâm not. Anyway, I think that itâs real.â The seller slunk away with the plate in his arms.
âThank you, Miss.â Mr. Kawada smiled. âYou look a little familiar.â
âMany people say that I look familiar. â Catherine turned and tried to slip away shyly.
âWait, I remember now. Youâre the heir of Yule Corporation. Your last name is⦠Jones⦠â Kawada hurriedly said. âYour father is Joel Yule, right?â
âYouâve got the wrong person. â Catherine waved awkwardly.
âHaha, no I didnât. Iâve met your father before.â Kawada handed her his business card.
Catherine read it and immediately shook his hand. â Hello, President Kawada. Iâm actually a porcelain enthusiast too. I secretly flew over here to see because I didnât want others to recognize me.â
âI understand. There are always people who want to curry favor in exchange for benefits. Itâs too troublesome.â Kawada laughed. â Itâs fate that we could meet. Look at that piece.â
âSure.â
Catherine followed him, and an hour flew by. The two chatted about many things.
When it was lunchtime, Kawada said, âActually, Iâve always admired Yule Corporationâs development in the logistics area. By the way, since youâre Yule Corporationâs heir, when are you planning to take over the company?â
âItâs not that easy to take over.â Catherine smiled bitterly. âCurrently, Yule Corporationâs development is very good, and the stock prices also rose, but Yule Corporationâs internal management is complicated.
There are many people who covet my position.â
âThatâs true.â Kawadaâs eyes flashed. âBut you canât give up this position easily. Itâs your fatherâs hard work.â
âMy father isnât in good health and wants me to take care of it, but I still have another company on hand. I donât have that much energy. I might end up selling my shares. â Catherine blurted. âBut Iâm afraid my father will disagree, and my grandfather might get angry too. But either way, my last name is Jones, so I donât care about it that much.â
Kawada gave a deep cough. âThatâs true. Youâre still so young, and those uncles are old and cunning, so it might be better to sell them. A girl has to marry eventually anyway.â
âThatâs right. Sometimes I want to find a boyfriend, but Iâm too busy. All I want now is to go dating happily nowâ¦â
Just as Catherine finished speaking, she suddenly seemed to hear the sound of something shattering from next door.
She froze.
At that moment, Kawada said in a low voice, âIâll be frank. Iâm actually quite interested in logistics. Why donât you sell the shares to me? You can name a price.â
âHuh?â Catherine was shocked and looked around wildly. âThat⦠That wonât do. If my grandfather finds outâ¦â
âI heard that your grandfather returned to Yule Corporation. I guess that he wonât be relinquishing his position for some time.â Kawada said meaningfully, âYou werenât raised by his side either. Who knows if heâll support that cousin of yours instead in the future.â
Catherine was stunned and gritted her teeth. âIâd sell it for 6o million USDâ¦â
â6o million?â Kawada was shocked. That was quite a high price. âI remember your Yule Corporationâs market value is only around loo million. Iâm afraid no one will buy it if you sell for 6o million, but Iâd be willing to buy it if you can let it go for 45 million.
Look, there are so many logistics companies nowadaysâ¦â
Then, Kawada incessantly tried to convince Catherine.
Catherine pretended to listen and become more and more interested and finally agreed to sell Yule Corporationâs shares for 50 million USD.
