Li Dachao looked at the time. It was already 15:00 in the afternoon in the UK. According to the eight-hour time difference, it was now the capital time.

He immediately dialed Xiao Qi's cell phone, spent ten minutes to explain clearly, and then handed the phone to Duke Saatchi.

"Hello, Duke Saatchi, I'm Xiao Qi." The young man said on the other end of the phone.

"Haha, Mr. Xiao Qi, hello, I'm Saatchi." Duke Saatchi took the phone and walked aside. Li Dachao was dumbfounded, and immediately said in his heart: Old bastard, I am

Are you a bandit or a robber? Are you so careful to be on guard?

Duke Saatchi doesn't care what Li Dachao thinks, this matter must be kept secret anyway.

He walked to the corner and then spoke of his request, "I know that in London recently, a real estate company that you invested in, Mr. Xiao Qi, is taking active actions, right?"

Through Li Dachao's simple and quick introduction just now, Xiao Qi already knew the identity of Duke Sage. The biggest business of Duke Sage was real estate and land. The family owned 500 acres of land in London alone, although most of it was in London.

Suburban, but worth billions of dollars.

Therefore, it is only natural that he has such a keen sense of changes in real estate trends.

"Yes." Xiao Qi replied after thinking for a while.

Although investing in real estate in the UK is relatively secretive, if someone is interested, they can still find out.

After all, Liu Datou and the others will not keep a low profile.

In fact, as long as you want to make money, you can't keep a low profile.

"I would like to ask Mr. Xiao Qi, what do you think of British real estate in the next few years?" Duke Sage said with a smile, "Of course, you didn't give me the information in vain. I will give you a generous reward. For example

I said, I will provide convenience for your real estate investment. When some people are making things difficult for this company, you should believe in my promise!”

This is true.

The British developed gentlemanly demeanor from their career as pirates and robbers.

This sounds funny, but generally speaking, if you do business with orthodox British gentlemen, then they will regard their reputation as more important than their lives and will not be careless at all.

Duke Sage has a very good reputation in this regard. Li Dachao also emphasized this point just now.

Moreover, the Duke of Saatchi has great energy and is one of the top leaders in the British real estate industry. Especially in the real estate company targeting Saatchi, he will be well taken care of.

Liu Datou and others traveled across the ocean to come to England to make a fortune, earn money from the British, and steal the jobs of British businessmen. Of course, they would arouse the hatred of others. With Duke Sage around, everyone can only act within the scope allowed by the rules.

If you act within the limits allowed by the rules...

The British couldn't get enough of Liu Datou's cunning and cunning.

But Xiao Qi still felt that he had suffered a bit.

The reason is simple. The Duke of Saatchi is the largest real estate businessman in the UK. If he knew the real estate trends in the UK in the next few years, he would make a lot of money.

The money in the market is limited, and the easy money was made by Duke Sage. Then Liu Datou and the others can only make hard-to-earn money. Isn't this a loss?

As if he knew what Xiao Qi was thinking. Duke Saqi said seriously, "Mr. Xiao Qi, I know your concerns, but you have to believe that I am not the kind of person who will monopolize everything. Our family can survive until now. It depends on it."

Not money and power, but absolute gentlemanly spirit."

Xiao Qi's mind was spinning rapidly. Every possibility he was thinking about now might affect the success or failure of this London real estate speculation group.

Duke Sage didn't rush him, he just looked at the golf lawn not far away. It was green and very pleasing to the eye.

After a long time, Xiao Qicai said: "According to my estimation, the European economy will not be very good in the past few years, and many hedge funds will hide in safe places. Because of the continued depreciation of the pound and the financial strength of the UK

Due to its status, UK real estate, especially London real estate, will become the first choice for hedge funds."

Duke Sage was also thinking quickly in his mind, "Haha, doesn't Spain have countless seaside vacation homes?"

"But does Spain have the economic support of the United Kingdom? Do they have Fleet Street?" Xiao Qi said, "A city that relies entirely on tourism has no investment appreciation value at all. What's more, Spain's debt burden is too heavy. Once

If it collapses, real estate will also collapse. Who is the fool? Who is willing to invest in this bottomless pit?"

"I didn't expect Mr. Xiao Qi to know Spain so well." Duke Sage said with a smile, "I was one of the real estate developers there before and made a lot of money. If you like it, I can give you a few beaches.

Villas for you, all around the beautiful port of Valencia.”

"Let's talk about it later," Xiao Qidao said, "I think Britain, especially megacities like London, have the most hype value. After a short plunge, I believe it will give me more rewards!"

In fact, since the outbreak of the subprime mortgage crisis in 2007, the real estate-related industries in continental Europe have also fallen into crisis.

The soaring housing prices suddenly came down. Now in 2009, the price has dropped by more than 40%, and the land market is also in the same slump.

This is also the reason why Liu Datou was able to directly buy more than a dozen pieces of land of various sizes in London for one billion US dollars.

Don't think that only China has land finance. In fact, it is the same in every country. When the government has no money, it will sell land in addition to issuing bonds in the most shameless way. Britain is no exception.

Seeing that someone was buying land, it was still such a big deal, and with Branson's connections running the errands, it was natural to sell it.

Anyway, the British taxes are very high. In a few decades, the land will become a tax and return to the British government... no, the British people, and it will be auctioned again.

All right.

So don’t think that China’s 99-year real estate property rights are so bullying.

In fact, foreign permanent property rights are also based on various inheritance taxes and property taxes that are 10 times higher than those in China. Sometimes they are so harsh that they can be taken back after 50 years.

It was precisely because Liu Datou bought land so quickly and in large sums that it aroused Duke Saqi's suspicion. After careful inspection, he found out that Xiao Qi was involved, so Duke Sachi's interest became even stronger.

This is also the reason why he immediately agreed to meet with Li Dachao.

After listening to Xiao Qi's talk about the general situation, Duke Saqi was also making calculations in his mind.

According to his thinking, the real estate in the UK has actually fallen to a similar level. However, seeing the dark clouds in Europe recently, it looks like a storm is about to come, and he is a little worried that it may be just on the mountainside now, and it is still far from the bottom of the valley.

Very.

Xiao Qi's analysis was different from his thoughts. Whether he should follow his own heart or the advice of the world's richest man was up to Duke Sage himself.

After hanging up his cell phone, Duke Sage returned to the table and neatly signed the sale and purchase agreement for Weiyou Cinema. Then he sat in the Rolls-Royce and rushed home without looking back.

On the way back, he made 17 phone calls and summoned all his think tanks and market experts, all of whom were close friends, to discuss whether Xiao Qi's analysis was correct and whether it was possible to implement it in the near future.

Duke Saatchi didn't think Xiao Qi would tell lies. For a person like Xiao Qi, a word he said was worth more than gold.

If Xiao Qi was full of lies, then he would not be able to get to where he is today when a person has a certain amount of money. Then money is secondary, reputation and connections are the most important.

Duke Sage never felt that he would lose to anyone in real estate, but he did not dare to deny the extraordinary vision of the world's richest man.

Xiao Qi has used countless facts to prove that he has his own unique ability to predict and observe in many aspects, and is often better than many experts.

When looking at the profit prospect of at least billions of dollars, Duke Sage felt that he was now full of strength, just like the ace nicknamed "Sage Bull" who ran rampant on the rugby field 50 years ago.

…

Xiao Qi hung up his cell phone and recalled the real estate boom in London in his previous life.

At that time, Xiao Qi was still in the United States. Although the real estate industry in the United States was gradually entering the recovery stage, it was far from being as prosperous as London.

London's housing prices hit rock bottom in 2009. Then they began to rise steadily. Coupled with the crazy speculation by international speculators, in 2013, London's housing prices even exceeded 30% of the 2008 housing prices, an astonishing increase.

.

There are various factors involved, but the attitude of the British government is the biggest piece of good news.

Not only do they give foreigners the green light to buy and sell houses, but they also provide the most favorable interest rates to people who take loans to buy houses, so that more poor people can buy houses.

Now that there are countermeasures for both buying and selling, do you think the British real estate industry can stop booming? Can the British economy not look like it will improve soon?

As for the real estate bubble, the British government is not that worried.

To put it bluntly, even after the bubble bursts, you must pay the taxes you changed!

As for how much you have lost, it has nothing to do with the British government!

Anyway, I have sold all the land that should be sold and collected all the taxes and fees that should be collected. The inheritance tax, value-added tax, real estate tax, etc. that will be collected in the future cannot be less!

If this is the case, does it have anything to do with whether the real estate bubble is a bubble or not, and whether the interests of the British government are damaged?

Since it doesn't matter, why can't the British government promote real estate development and let the bubble offset the impact of the financial crisis?

As long as he can figure this out, Xiao Qi will no longer worry about whether the British government's attitude will change in this generation.

Obviously, they will not change. (To be continued...)
