READ NOVEL ONLINE Rebirth of England.
Chapter 048 is just the beginning
After a romantic dinner, when the two walked out of the restaurant, drizzle fell.
At this time, Barron was rare and did not curse the weather in London. Instead, he felt that the light rain was appropriate for the occasion.
The umbrella in the Rolls-Royce came in handy. Barron held the umbrella for Bonnie. The girl turned to his side, and the two of them were close to each other.
When Barron put his hand around Bonnie's waist, it felt like a firm squeeze.
Even though it was raining, Barron felt that he could accompany him all the way back to the apartment.
Of course, this is just a thought. After all, it is easier to perform in the back seat of a Rolls-Royce.
The two of them were in a good mood tonight and drank a bottle of red wine together.
Although Bonnie didn't drink much, just two drinks, her face was already very rosy as she sat next to Barron.
The Rolls-Royce was driving on the streets of London on a rainy night. Looking out at the street from the car window, Barron suddenly had a wonderful feeling of time and space intersecting.
But the girl in his arms at this moment was extremely real.
At this time, Bonnie was also looking at Barron with her emerald green eyes. The two looked at each other. The girl's eyes were a bit hazy and almost overflowing with affection.
Needless to say, Barron understands that what he needs to do now is...
The two people gradually got closer and finally kissed each other.
This kiss was like the rain in London at night, continuous and long.
"I like you, Barron."
"Me too, dear Bonnie."
……
"Ms. Moore, I specially prepared breakfast for you. You can eat it first and then talk."
The next morning, when Yulia came to Barron, she was taken aback by his enthusiasm, while the Duke hummed and read the newspaper that Ramos brought.
Last night, in the Rolls-Royce, Barron and Bonnie could be said to be on the verge of a fight. However, when he wanted to go further, Bonnie's performance was not as brave as when she confessed her love. Somewhat reserved.
"Barron, how about this first? I, I think something happened to us at Chatsworth Manor..."
Although Barron had reached a certain critical point at that time, could he refuse such a request from the girl he liked?
Even with a little regret, Barron finally sent Bonnie back to her apartment, but he was even more looking forward to the upcoming trip to the manor with the girl.
Yulia didn't eat much. She just ate a piece of bread and drank a glass of milk. She wiped her mouth gracefully and began to tell Barron about her progress:
"Your Highness, according to the communication with Miss Laura, we have contacted PwC, and they will formulate strategies for our acquisition of The Independent, as well as subsequent negotiations. Before the acquisition negotiations are officially launched, the other party will contact us. You meet to discuss related matters.”
"I hope they will move faster. I hope there will be results within a month."
"In fact, it depends on the price you have in mind, Your Highness the Duke. For this kind of acquisition, faced with a mess like the Independent, it is not surprising that the negotiations will last for several months."
"At least PwC should show their value, shouldn't they?"
"I'm not optimistic about this..."
Yulia did not continue talking about this, she turned to the matter in King's Cross:
"Right now we have three parcels of land under discussion in King's Cross, as I mentioned to you before. The remaining parcels of land in private hands there are slightly scattered, no more than 1 hectare."
In King's Cross, Barron had just had a conversation with Viscount Bute and would consider whether to cooperate depending on the situation.
But regardless of the outcome, it is necessary to obtain more land. After all, it will be more difficult and more expensive to buy land in other areas of London.
The three pieces of land that Yulia is talking about now all cover an area of less than 1 hectare. One of them is less than 300 meters away from King's Cross Station, covering an area of about 0.8 hectares, and the other two pieces of land cover an area of 0.75 and 0.5 hectares respectively. The plots are all located on the other side of the Regent River, across the river from the abandoned gas storage tank site.
Current land prices in King's Cross, such as residential sites, are generally under £300 million per hectare - consider that ten years later Google bought a roughly 1 hectare site in the area for £650 million If so, the land here can still achieve a relatively large appreciation in the future.
After all, the location of Google's land is already slightly away from the center of King's Cross, and as a well-known Internet giant, their purchase of land to build a headquarters building will promote the surrounding land, and they will naturally receive corresponding discounts.
"The original buildings on these three pieces of land are all very old. They were either vulgar dancer clubs or almost abandoned old apartments. However, the other party's asking price is not low, and we are still negotiating..."
"Speed up the process and avoid long nights and dreams. Let's negotiate at 300 million pounds per hectare, with a maximum premium of 10%."
"This is a bit high..."
"Of course I would like the price to be as low as possible, but sometimes time is more important."
……
In the afternoon, when the Nasdaq stock market opened, the opening price of AirGate stock increased slightly from yesterday's closing price of around US$38, and finally opened at US$38.5.
A total of about 183 million AirGate shares were borrowed, and 100 million shares were sold yesterday. Today, DS Capital's task is to sell the remaining 83 shares.
It was also because of the experience of selling nearly 100 million shares of AirGate stock in one trading day yesterday.
Today, the team led by Daisy is selling stocks at a more proficient pace.
The performance of AirGate stock is still strong. I don’t know where the buying orders are, but the performance is active. 50 shares were sold, and the price only fell by $3. When they suspended selling for observation, the stock price even dropped. A slight rebound...
"The situation is a bit ominous. The buying below is decreasing and the price support is weakening."
After dinner, Barron suddenly heard Daisy's slightly surprised voice.
"How much stock do we have left?"
"About 10 shares..."
Barron said directly without any hesitation:
"Don't worry too much, just clear out our stocks!"
Following his words, Daisy immediately issued an order, and the trend of AirGate stock on the market immediately began to fall.
The previous sale of 50 shares of AirGate stock only reduced its price by $3, but now the sale of 10 shares of AirGate stock in an instant directly reduced its price by $5, and the stock price fell below $30!
"All our stocks were sold, with an average price of $37.7!"
Following Daisy's words, Barron breathed a sigh of relief.
Within two days, AirGate's stock dropped from around US$40 to US$30, a drop of up to 25%, which also caused confusion in the market...
In the later period, the price of AirGate stock hovered below 30 US dollars for a while, and then returned to above 30 US dollars. However, here, the rise was weak, and it fluctuated up and down at 30 US dollars. Finally, AirGate closed at 30.22. Prices in the U.S. dollar closed higher, ending the week.
After the Nasdaq stock market closed, based on the closing price, DS Capital's position in AirGate stock had a floating profit of more than $1000 million.
Of course, Barron knows that the current floating profit is entirely based on their selling a large number of AirGate shares in a short period of time - at least most of it is caused by this.
But the borrowed stocks will eventually be returned. If there are no other factors, the price will still rise when they buy the stocks. As a result, they may not only make no profit, but even cause losses.
But Barron is not worried at all, because he knows that the real exciting moment has not yet come, and next week will be the highlight.
