As soon as Xia Ruofei said this, the old West and Lin Qiao were stunned. The expressions of the three of them were synchronized. They all opened their eyes wide and opened their mouths slightly, looking extremely surprised.

Old West soon came to his senses, thinking that this young Chinese neighbor was the owner of the vast farm next door, and Chinese people have become richer and often buy industries around the world.

There are also many Chinese in Australia. They wave checkbooks to buy farms and wineries without blinking their eyes.

Although West Winery has a history of 150 years, it does not cover a large area. In terms of value, it is not a little worse than the Wonderland Farm, which covers an area of ​​6,000 hectares.

Since this young Chinese rich man can afford the Wonderland Farm, it is definitely no problem to buy such a small winery.

Thinking of this, Old West's mind became alive.

However, after looking at Caberie, he said seriously: "Xia, buying a winery is not a small matter, I hope it is not an impulsive decision."

Xia Rufei smiled and said, "Of course not, my money was not caused by the strong wind."

"But you haven't even visited our winery..."

"When I came to Australia last time, the field inspection was completed." Xia Rufei said with a smile. "The inspection of the winery products has been carried out since I returned to China! You just heard it, and my sister was also deeply impressed by the West Winery."

Xia Rufei talked about the last time she visited West Winery.

Of course, visiting the winery is just a quick look, but the century-old history of West Winery is there, and it is also quite famous in the Hunter Valley area, which is not fake.

As for the valuation of the winery, even if Xia Rufei reads it ten times, he will not be able to make an accurate judgment. In fact, when the acquisition is carried out, the valuation reports given by a third-party appraisal agency are referenced.

Such an evaluation agency makes a living. In most cases, the reports issued are objective and fair. They will not be expected to be overestimated, otherwise they will be ruining their own job.

West Winery is preparing to sell, and also entrusted a third party to conduct a value assessment. Xia Rufei only needs to use the evaluation report as a reference.

Of course, formal overseas mergers and acquisitions are much more complicated than this, and you need to consider investment returns, market positioning, sales channels, management models, etc.

After confirming the acquisition, at least a trading project team must be formed including banks, accountants, lawyers, market analysts, and bilingual overseas professional service teams.

However, what Xia Rufei needs to consider is not that complicated, because no matter how meticulous the calculation is, whether the winery can make a profit in the end depends on the product.

Xia Rufei has a heaven-defying artifact like Lingtu Space. The product has unparalleled advantages, so there is no need to worry too much about other details.

In fact, Xia Rufei was not on a whim. He had originally planned to acquire a vineyard, especially after buying it back to China last time, almost everyone who had drunk it was praised. Xia Rufei was interested in getting involved in this industry at that time.

West Winery is undoubtedly a very suitable acquisition target.

However, this winery is a family winery, which has been passed down for more than a hundred years. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for others to sell it. So when Xia Rufei heard Liang Qichao say that Old West was eager to sell the winery to repay the debt, he had already started to think about it.

Of course, if he really bought the winery, he would definitely "improve" the grape varieties in the vineyards.

Old West asked excitedly, "Xia, are you sure you are serious?"

"Very sure, Uncle Carter." Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "If you can promise me a condition, I think we can talk about the specific details of the acquisition."

"What conditions?" Old West finally moved a little and asked hurriedly.

Xia Ruofei looked at the old West and said seriously: "My condition is that you can continue to stay in the winery and be responsible for the management and operation of the winery. Of course, I will give you time to handle the final work of the Melbourne company."

Xia Rufei had just asked this point, just to confirm whether the old West and his wife wanted to try to bring back their Melbourne company or simply end the business there directly.

He needed professionals to help him manage the winery, and it was obvious that the old West and his wife were very suitable candidates.

Most importantly, the couple has a special feeling for West Winery, and Xia Rufei believes that they should be the most suitable winery manager.

So he confirmed that Old West had no intention of continuing to run a company in Melbourne, so he proposed the intention to acquire it.

Old West and Caberie looked at each other and asked excitedly: "Xia, do you mean we can continue to stay at West Winery in the future?"

Xia Ruofei shrugged and said with a smile: "No, it's OK, but it's necessary. Of course, I will pay you a salary according to the market."

Old West no longer hesitated and immediately said, "Agree! Xia, your conditions are so generous that I can't refuse."

Aunt Kaberie also said happily: "Sia, what Carter has the most difficult for him to accept is that he must leave here after selling the winery. If he can continue to work, he will be willing to do so even if he doesn't have a salary."

Old West couldn't help but laugh.

Xia Ruofei said: "Uncle Carter, let's talk about the specific acquisition details!"

"Okay!" Old West immediately stood up and said, "I'll get the valuation report of our winery."

Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call too, please ask Brother Liang to arrange a property lawyer for me."

Lawyers are naturally responsible for legal affairs in the entire acquisition process, including the drafting of merger documents and the resolution of possible legal disputes during the acquisition process.

When Old West saw Xia Rufei, he was going to ask a lawyer to follow him up. He also knew that Xia Rufei was indeed serious. He was full of joy and even his steps became much lighter.

When Old West went to get the valuation report, Xia Rufei called Liang Qichao.

On the phone, Xia Ruofei told Liang Qichao that he was planning to acquire West Winery and asked him to help find a qualified property lawyer, the faster the better.

After hearing this, Liang Qichao was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a long time.

After a while, he murmured: "Rofei, the transaction of West Winery involves at least tens of millions of Chinese coins, right? You...you went out for a walk, and in less than fifteen minutes, you negotiated a tens of millions of business?"

Xia Rufei smiled and said, "West Winery is really good! Uncle Carter is interested in selling it, and I am interested in buying it. Isn't it just a matter of hitting it off?"

Liang Qichao said: "Okay! If you have money, you can be willful..."

Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Take the time to contact a lawyer for me! When will I get to the winery as soon as possible?"

Liang Qichao immediately said: "In the past two years, many Chinese have come to acquire Australian wineries and farms, so there is such a law firm in Hunter Valley, and I can contact you immediately! By the way, do you need to contact a bank representative?"

Xia Ruofei said: "No, I'm not going to apply for a loan."

Liang Qichao was hit a little again and said, "Okay... I'll contact you right away."

Liang Qichao was very efficient. In about half an hour, he brought a tall and thin white man to West Winery.

This white man is Heinte, a lawyer who Liang Qichao found in Hunter Valley. Lawyer Heinte is well-known in Hunter Valley and is a professional legal service for Flying Property Rights attorney. Liang Qichao met him during a community event in Hunter Valley, so this time he directly asked him to help.

Xia Rufei is flipping through the winery valuation report provided by Old West.

It was a little difficult for him to read the pure English report. He had never been to college. After joining the army, he learned some commonly used English because of work, and could only conduct simple oral communication.

Xia Rufei's English level was truly improved after obtaining the Lingtu Space. To be precise, his mental power became stronger and stronger, and his memory and comprehension were greatly improved, so he could quickly learn and master traditional Chinese medicine knowledge and English in his spare time.

This is also Xia Rufei's conscious ability to improve his abilities, because he knows that in the future, English will definitely be a necessary skill for the company to become international.

However, Xia Rufei still has a relatively difficult time reading professional texts like the winery valuation report.

After Liang Qichao arrived, he introduced lawyer Heinte to Old West and Xia Ruofei.

Heinte is quite famous in the Hunter Valley area. Old West obviously has heard his name, so he smiled and said, "With Mr. Heinte, I think there will definitely be no loopholes in the merger and acquisition documents..."

Xia Rufei first signed a power of attorney entrusted Heinte to fully represent the legal business in the merger and acquisition, and then Heinte quickly entered the work state.

After carefully reading the valuation report, he said to Xia Rufei: "Mr. Xia, West Winery has ten hectares of vineyards and more than 20,000 wines of different years, plus the winery's annexed buildings and other assets, I preliminarily judged that this valuation report is objective and fair and can be used as a reference for your price negotiations."

Xia Rufei smiled and nodded, then said to Old West: "Uncle Carter, then we can talk about the price."

Old West said without hesitation: "Xia, you already know our position just now. As long as your bid is higher than 1.8 million Australian dollars, this winery belongs to you!"
