Chapter 1068: 365. Sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

The most frustrating thing for Junior Rockefeller at this business negotiation is not only that they have no advantages, but also an annoying Woburg Family is competing with them, making Venus Bank even more fearless.

Cafe Jackson casually said, “Mr. Rockefeller, I used to think the same, but just yesterday, Mr. Woburg sat in your seat and stated that their New Woburg Company has already prepared the funds!”

Junior Rockefeller was stunned for a moment. He had rehearsed the negotiation beforehand and believed that, although they had no advantage in front of Venus Bank, they still had an advantage over the Woburg Family, which was their undoubtedly more abundant funds!

But now Cafe Jackson claimed the other party had already prepared the cash!

“Jackson, could it be that your company released this smoke screen?”

“Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Woburg is currently staying at the Surf Hotel. If you don’t believe it, we can invite him up right now!”

Facing the fearless Cafe Jackson, Junior Rockefeller reluctantly accepted this reality.

“But even so, we still have an advantage over the New Woburg Company!” Junior Rockefeller continued with the conditions he had prepared, “We are willing to jointly develop this land with Venus Bank. As long as Venus Bank provides the land, our Rockefeller Family will cover all the construction costs. Then we can redistribute the shares based on land value and construction costs. How about that?”

Currently, land prices in Florida are rising continuously, and the cost of buildings is naturally rising as well, even exceeding land prices.

Junior Rockefeller believed this could persuade Cafe Jackson!

If he hadn’t received Donnie’s orders, Cafe Jackson would certainly handle the matter himself and would accept Junior Rockefeller’s proposal.

After all, after the development, whether it’s selling or renting, it’s an excellent investment.

Unfortunately, Donnie’s order was to dispose of all the land held by Venus Bank in Florida by early 1926!

“I’m sorry!” Cafe Jackson painfully rejected Junior Rockefeller’s proposal, “Our group already has a new development plan, so for the land in Florida, we’re only selling, not developing!”

“This is simply unreasonable!” Junior Rockefeller couldn’t help but get angry. Clearly, his proposal had more commercial value. Why was the other party determined to sell the land?

Cafe Jackson reminded Junior Rockefeller, “Mr. Rockefeller, if you don’t want to accept it, we can completely abandon this cooperation. There’s no need to get upset!”

“Hoo!!!!”

Junior Rockefeller took a deep breath and asked word by word, “So, if our Rockefeller Family wants this land, we definitely have to compete with the New Woburg Company?”

Cafe Jackson nodded, “I’m afraid so!”

Junior Rockefeller solemnly said, “Block really made a good deal!”

“I take Mr. Rockefeller’s words as praise for our boss!” At this moment, Cafe Jackson was in a dominant position, so he was generous!

.

In the meeting room of the Surf Hotel, Cafe Jackson sat steadily in the main seat, with his three assistants beside him.

Paul Warburg and Junior Rockefeller sat on each side, with their assistants who came to Atlantic City with them also nearby!

In front of the oval conference table, there were two blackboards with maps of various cities in Florida. Different landforms were marked on these maps in blue and red, respectively.

Paul Warburg and Junior Rockefeller sat across from each other, both seeing the anger in the other’s eyes, understanding that it was their existence that would force them to spend more cash in this business deal.

“Mr. Warburg, New Woburg Company is already the largest real estate group in Florida. You don’t need to put in more funds to do this. Aren’t you worried that this transaction will again impact your cash flow?”

Junior Rockefeller clearly reminded Paul Warburg.

Paul Warburg’s face slightly darkened; since this negotiation had destined them to be on opposite sides, Paul Warburg didn’t intend to show a smile to Junior Rockefeller either.

“Mr. Rockefeller, didn’t you also find it hard to take out such a large amount of funds at once? Moreover, you’re not familiar with the real estate industry in Florida. Be careful, this might become a failed investment record for your family!”

“That’s none of Mr. Warburg’s concern; have you forgotten we already acquired part of Warburg Company’s land in Florida?”

When Junior Rockefeller said this, he deliberately emphasized Warburg Company.

As expected, Paul Warburg’s face became even more unsightly upon hearing these words.

“Gentlemen, I believe we should focus on today’s negotiation!”

As today’s facilitator, Cafe Jackson called a halt to their confrontation and then stood up, moving to the front of the blackboard.

“Gentlemen, these are the drawings our company worked on overnight based on your companies’ requirements. The positions marked in blue are the land New Woburg Company needs, and the positions marked in red are the land the Rockefeller Family needs. Let’s set aside the overlapping parts for now.”
