Chapter 010: Homo Sapiens
In addition, there is a breeding base on the nearby Karagwa Islands, which owns the property rights to an entire island, with an area of 17.3 square kilometers
New Cheng, you are responsible for financial management work
No, no, sir, you must understand that those five fishing boats are worth 35 million US dollars
Certainly, the ownership of this island is not permanent, and there are currently about 14 years remaining on the property rights, which are limited to aquaculture development
The owner of Yada Company is an American, dressed in colorful shorts, with strange tattoos on his arms, a cowboy in his fifties
Li Qingye summoned three managers, along with two managers who had previously remained with the company
The middle-aged man with somewhat dark skin, who was the first to speak just now, is Zaxi. He is a local from Luzon
Due to the side effects of genetic modification, Li Qingye's body has now aged significantly, and her appearance resembles that of a middle-aged person in their thirties or forties
He recruited three professional managers in Hong Kong to be responsible for managing the daily affairs of Zhiren Company. These three managers are not particularly outstanding; they can only be considered average, and Li Qingye is also at a loss.
Mr. Zhang, we have currently identified three suitable targets for the aquaculture company you instructed us to acquire in Luzon. Here is the relevant information," the business manager Lin Ji said with a smile as he introduced it to him
There are 15 large marine aquaculture farms above, and additionally, there are 82 cage aquaculture farms in the shallow coastal waters of the islands
The somewhat dull middle-aged man, Fang Xincheng, stood up and said, "Yes, boss"
After hearing Paul's asking price, Li Qingye shook his head: "It's too expensive. The annual profit from those shrimp farms and pomfret farms is less than 2 million US dollars, and the fishing boats are barely breaking even. Given this, it's not worth 30 million US dollars."
According to the introduction, this Daya Company owns 5 fishing vessels with a total tonnage of approximately 24,000 tons; additionally, there is an office building in Dart Port, which is 5 stories and around 3,000 square meters in size
After disembarking from Manila International Airport, he arrived at the eastern coastal city of Datu Port on Luzon Island, led by Lin Ji and others
Li Qingye chuckled: "Hehe, Paul, are you joking? 35 million US dollars? That's the price for a brand new one. How many years has it been in use? Isn't there any depreciation? Moreover, you must be aware of the current situation in deep-sea fishing, right?"
After others had left, Li Qingye instructed Chen Jianxiong alone, asking him to quickly recruit a group of security personnel and procure a batch of firearms
At this moment, the dominant personality of the body is the third personality, "Guan Zhong," which has been specifically developed for managing the company and handling business affairs
As for the other infrastructure on the island, there is no shortage of it
Luzon does not prohibit firearms, but it is necessary to obtain a gun license
"Fixed price, 12 million US dollars. If you agree, sign; if not, goodbye." Li Qingye stated directly.
Then there is Paul's previous villa, which is still a seaside property with a private beach.

Here, facing the Pacific Ocean, approximately two hundred kilometers to the east, lies the Luzon Trench
After all, we are now in the information age. In the identity documents he retained after obtaining citizenship in South Africa, although his appearance has aged and his skin has darkened significantly, the contours of his bones have not changed much.
If one frequently appears online, or even frequently takes flights, it is possible for individuals to be identified using online technology
Haha, with a maximum value of 5 million, of course you can choose to send it to the shipbreaking yard for scrapping
In the seaside villa
After all, this is an old vessel, and fuel consumption and maintenance are issues. Currently, the marine fishing industry is facing a downturn, which is also a significant problem. With the depletion of global marine fishery resources, the likelihood of this medium-sized fishing boat returning from a trip at a loss is increasing. Otherwise, he would not be looking for someone to take over.
As for the farm, the profits throughout the year are not substantial, barely enough to sustain operations
"Boss, Paul hasn't received his salary for over two months now..." reminded Zaxi, the head of the breeding base
The small dock is located near a breeding base, and there is also a staff dormitory building that can accommodate approximately 120 people; in addition, there is a comprehensive building that houses a staff canteen, a billiard room, a medical room, and a storage room for daily necessities
Li Qingye utilized several offshore companies for cross-shareholding, acquired this company, and subsequently renamed it to Zhiren Company
No problem, our company will arrange it as soon as possible
Paul has a very thick skin: "Those fishing boats are worth at least 20 million."
One week later
"It will be sent immediately." Li Qingye glanced at the other party and then began to assign positions to the five individuals: "Jing Lan, as the General Manager, will be responsible for the overall operations of the company"
I have just one request; you only need to carry out my instructions, and you do not need to concern yourselves with anything else, do you understand
Kang Nan, who has Chinese ancestry, did not show any particular reaction to the change of boss and immediately agreed to it
Finally unable to hold on, Paul sold the entire Daya Company to Li Qingye for 12 million dollars
Hello, Paul. Lin Ji and the other party exchanged a hug, then engaged in a few pleasantries, introducing each other's situations.
Finally, General Manager Li Jinglan was arranged to have the other party procure a batch of scientific research equipment for the biological laboratory in the name of the company, as he planned to establish an aquaculture laboratory on Karagwa Island
He carefully reviewed the three documents
Li Qingye continued to instruct: "Jianxiong, you are responsible for security and logistics management"
Even with so many confusing and misleading tactics arranged, he still does not feel at ease
The thin, bespectacled man, Li Jinglan, nodded and said, "No problem"
Li Qingye inquired about certain matters
Cayman Islands
Li Qingye sat cross-legged, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle, and with those rimless glasses, appeared no different from a middle-aged person in their thirties
However, he currently has no other options and can only use the identity of Zhang Jieke in the short term, but he needs to remain as low-profile as possible
Paul furrowed his brow, but he understood the current market situation. Industries in such remote areas are indeed not very valuable, and the price set by Li Qingye is already the highest among all interested parties.
Uh... Paul’s expression darkened; sending these ships to the scrapyard was a futile endeavor. If this continues, let alone 5 million, even 1 million might not attract any buyers.
Li Qingye looked at the last person, a middle-aged man nearing fifty: "Kang Nan, you will still manage the fishing boat, but you won't need to go out to sea for fishing in the near future. Move the vessel to the port near Kalagu Island to assist in transporting some items, and then we will adjust the business thereafter"
Prior to this, for many of the transactions he handled, he sought out separate companies to operate, in order to avoid too much information being concentrated in one agency.
Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong
Li Qingye quickly decided on the target: "The first target, Yada Marine Aquaculture Company, but I need to conduct an on-site inspection first"
The imposing middle-aged man, who previously worked in a security company, is Chen Jianxiong: "Thank you for your trust, boss"
The second objective has been abandoned
As Paul grew older, he no longer wished to continue in Luzon
Li Qingye in the hotel room did not let down her guard
Zaxi, you will continue to manage the breeding base and cooperate with the general manager's management
Caragua Island, this is the largest island in the archipelago, and it is also the only island that can be permanently inhabited, as well as the island contracted by the Daya Company
Kamei Breeding Company? Lin Ji nodded in response
