American Ranch

Chapter 641 Target Timberwolves

"Well, for two pounds of beans!"

Kroenke took a sip of coffee, and habitually stroked the thick mustache on his upper lip with his thumb and index finger.

Qin Yi leaned forward as if listening, and stretched out his hand to signal him to continue.

"There are currently two teams listed for sale in the league, the Nets and the Eagles. You should know this."

Qin Yi nodded.

Kroenke continued: "In fact, what has not been announced to the public is that the Timberwolves and Pelicans are also interested in selling, and they have already obtained the approval of the league. This is not a secret in the sports business circle. Interested in buying."

Qin Yi smacked his lips, interested, and said: "The performance of these teams is not very good."

"Not so good? It's terrible! Except for the good Eagles, the rest are the bottom teams in the league, both in strength and market value! God, it's far worse than my Nuggets!" Kroenke He sneered and said disdainfully.

Qin Yi was amused to hear that, the Nuggets are not doing much better, judging from the information he checked, the rankings have been lagging behind in recent years.

Seeing Qin Yi's playful smile, Kroenke also remembered that he had bought the Nuggets for 16 years, and it hadn't improved. There was really nothing to compare with those weak teams, so he changed the subject: "Okay, what we want to discuss Not this one, is it?"

"Yes, let's talk about the prices of a few teams, you must have some insider information! My coffee is not so easy to hold!" Qin Yi twisted his wrist, gestured for a pistol, and snapped, indicating that he Not one to be fooled.

"Of course! If you want to buy all the shares, don't think about the Nets. The Russian still wants to hold shares. The Eagles' shares are also scattered, which is too troublesome! Then only the Pelicans and Timberwolves are left. The market value of the team is between 6 million and 6.7 million US dollars!"

Kroenke sipped his coffee and looked up at him, asking him to pick one.

Qin Yi has also done a lot of work in the past few days. Knowing that the Timberwolves are in Minnesota, and Montana is only separated from North Dakota, it will be more convenient to move the team to Montana in the future.

"Okay, tell me about the Timberwolves. Also, tell me the lowest price. I don't believe you don't have any valuable news!"

This old guy not only owns the NBA Nuggets, but also several baseball teams and football teams, all of which are American professional league teams. If such a sports boss has no inside information, Qin Yi will not believe anything he says!

"I was going to say it!" Kroenke shrugged.

"Actually, I also recommend buying Timberwolves. This team has limited profitability in the past two years, but this is more beneficial to you. The market value is 6 million US dollars, but I think 5.5 to 5.8 is a more appropriate price."

Qin Yi rubbed his chin, five or six billion is acceptable, he had planned to buy some **** shares with more than one billion on his books, but the financial firm and legal team are still negotiating with those small shareholders , so the money hasn't been spent yet.

Seeing him pondering, Kroenke thought he thought the asking price was too high, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Well, Yi, I have some friendship with that old guy who sells printers, Tai Lun, maybe I can help you, but if I If you help me, those two pounds of coffee beans are too little, right?"

"Five pounds, and I'll give you another pound every month!"

"make a deal!"

With a "snap", the two clapped their hands and laughed like old foxes!
Kroenke only needs to give the Timberwolves boss Tyronn a blowjob, so he is very satisfied with Bai De's coffee beans. God, this is the best coffee, and money can't buy it. Well, maybe I can invite friends to my house later sit down
Of course, just discussing the development prospects of the sports industry, not showing off delicious coffee!
Qin Yi was even happier. The coffee beans in the warehouse were piled up and moldy. Instead of rotting, it's better to take them out as a favor. If it really saves a lot of money, it's really a big profit!

At the invitation of Keluo and the others, the Kroenke father and daughter stayed for lunch, and rode the Bonebreaker for a few laps before leaving in the afternoon.

Qin's mother was making soup in the kitchen, while Qin Yi was in the living room trying to make the daughters-in-law happy.

Susa, who became sleepy, took a nap in his arms, rubbed her eyes as soon as she woke up, looked at him with some worry, and said, "Yi, are you really planning to buy a team? No Think again?"

Ke Luo and Rachel, who were watching the talk show, also stopped at this moment, turned their heads to look at Qin Yi, feeling a little worried, God, this is an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, buying a team can really make money ?
"Didn't we agree?"

Qin Yi gently stroked her gradually rising belly, with a reassuring smile on his face, "Don't worry, the market value of the team has been rising. Two years ago, the Bucks were only [-] million U.S. dollars, and now they have climbed to [-] million!"

"But a bottom team like the Timberwolves, why do we buy it? If we don't play well, we will be scolded, and the profit is so low. If we want to make money, it is better to buy more pastures!"

This is Colo's opinion.

In fact, she also agreed before, but when things came to an end, she became hesitant again. After all, it was an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, and the family had no experience in the sports industry. It's really hard to know what will happen in the future. easy to say!

"Continuing to buy ranches can make more money, but we can't make all the money in the world! I just bought two ranches not long ago, and I haven't had time to digest them yet." Qin Yi patted them funny shoulders.

In fact, they don't have to focus on making money, after all, they are still at work because of their anxiety about entering a new industry!
"Did you forget that I know Chinese medicine? You can run faster and have more strength than others! If we find a few good players and stimulate their potential through Chinese medicine, maybe we can have a strong team and get thousands of dollars." With the support of the fans, we can make a lot of money!"

The daughters-in-law were still attracted by the prospects he described, and out of trust in him, they no longer hesitated, allowing him to attack the Timberwolves.

Qin Yi immediately contacted Miles and asked him, as an agent, to come forward to discuss the specific acquisition details with Timberwolves owner Tyronn. Of course, he also had to send a lawyer to go with him. Business is business!

When Angel came back from school, Qin’s mother had cooked the soup all afternoon and it was finally out of the pot. There were more than a dozen old hens left over a year old. Today, one was reimbursed again, mixed with big ribs, corn cubes and old ginger. , The aroma of stewing is overflowing!
The little girl entered the room, and her eyes lit up when she smelled the aroma. As soon as the little rabbit's schoolbag was thrown away, she ran to the kitchen with a sweet mouth. bowl!
But during this period, Susa and Rachel were the most important thing for her, and she was waiting for them to have big fat grandchildren, so she comforted the little girl, filled two big bowls immediately, and brought them to the living room to see Let them drink!
Qin Yi naturally took it quickly, then let his mother rest, and ran to the kitchen to fill up three more bowls, and the family enjoyed the delicious chicken soup.

"Dad, Teacher Lin Na said, tomorrow is the campus donation day!" Angel didn't even need a spoon, she just held a big bowl to drink, she still wanted to finish this bowl, and then go to a bowl of chicken, because she didn't eat meat yesterday !

"Okay, dad will accompany you to school tomorrow! By the way, what are you preparing this time?"

Campus Donation Day is a local campus event. Children will donate some small items, such as buttons, hairpins, handicrafts, even a clay figurine, and a painting. Then parents will bid for themselves, and the proceeds will be used for the maintenance of campus public facilities. maintain.

"I drew a picture. In the picture, I teach my brother to swim!"

The little girl raised her head proudly, making the adults laugh. Is teaching my younger brother to be proud of swimming?

The next day, Qin Yi took the little girl to the campus, and bought the little girl's masterpiece for five hundred dollars. When he came back, he posted it in her room, so that when his brother is born, he will know how much his sister loves him. !
Two days later, a cold air swept across Montana, and the first snowstorm since Thanksgiving came suddenly.
