Yida Group had offered 45 million Southern Federation coins, and while Renzo was hesitating, his considerations were almost done with. Now, Finn Lewis had upped the price directly to 100 million Southern Federation coins, even overbidding by an extra 25 million Southern Federation coins.

“Mr. Lewis, what are you doing?” Renzo blurted out, startled at why he was being offered more money for no apparent reason. This was his first encounter with a buyer taking the initiative to raise the price.

“Nothing much, just that if Mr. Renzo you sign right now, I’ll immediately pay 100 million Southern Federation coins. When buying things, I don’t keep haggling, I prefer to make quick decisions. My lawyers have prepared the contract.” Finn waved his hand dismissively, and Will, who was standing behind him, immediately brought over a contract.

Holding the contract in his hands, Renzo was left speechless. Were they determined to close the deal right now? Is this a football club purchase, or just buying vegetables at a supermarket sale? Wow, the world’s richest man indeed. The only thought left in Renzo’s mind was – ‘I like it!’. He quickly added in his mind, then directly said: “I’ll sign, I’ll call my lawyer now.”

“Good, also, I hope you can contact the Madrid authorities now. I want to buy 50% of the shares that Madrid officially holds. If we can seal the deal by tonight, I’ll give you an extra bonus of 10 million Southern Federation coins! I’m offering 90 million Southern Federation coins to Madrid! As for the specific amount, Mr. Renzo, you can negotiate! I’ll transfer 90 million Southern Federation coins to you,” said Finn, once again leaving Renzo speechless.

“Leave this matter to me,” replied Renzo without a second thought. If he could pocket an additional 10 million Southern Federation coins in one night, although Renzo was also wealthy, he found himself completely out of his depth with the ultra-rich likes of Finn. He may as well make the most of it!

Damn, is his money falling off trees? But Renzo couldn’t even manage to scoff at that now, it was already past 8 o’clock local time. If he contacted the Madrid authorities now, they would definitely be off work. He would need to reach someone with enough authority to sign the contract, but Renzo was pretty confident about it.

The Madrid authorities really didn’t want to hold so many shares in the team. They had long wanted to sell their own shares. Now, here was a buyer offering a fair price, and Renzo saw no reason why they would disagree.

Renzo directly called his lawyer. Despite making the call, he skimmed through the contract’s contents before fearlessly signing it. Thereby, he transferred the 30% of shares he held to Finn Lewis.

Finn gave Renzo a thumbs up, then said, “Mr. Renzo is decisive. Give me a bank account number.”

Getting Renzo’s bank account, Finn let Olivia Thatcher transfer 100 million Southern Federation coins to Renzo’s account. As for the rest of the money, once the contract was signed, Finn would naturally give it to him. Upon receiving a notification from his bank, Renzo wasted no time in calling the Madrid authorities, given that he had significant influence within Atletico Madrid.

After about two hours, Finn met with Aguirre, the top official of the Madrid Autonomous Region, and the female mayor of Madrid. By the time he met them, Renzo had already negotiated a price – 85 million Southern Federation coins – with the agreement to sign that night. This was because Renzo told them if they waited until tomorrow, Finn would only be willing to offer 80 million Southern Federation coins.

For the city of Madrid, even 70 million Southern Federation coins would be worth considering, and that was only one reason.

Another reason was the Atletico Madrid’s debt of 500 million Southern Federation coins, no less than that of Real Madrid. This debt owed to the Madrid authorities could finally be repaid if the club changed hands. Who was Finn? The world’s richest man with a net worth of 1200 billion federation coins! 500 million Southern Federation coins was nothing to him!

Naturally, the Madrid authorities were keen. They saw it as a win-win situation. Getting this call from Renzo despite it being past office hours, and possibly having to stay up late, was no deterrent for the top official of the Madrid Autonomous Region and the mayor of the city. Renzo had settled everything, and the remaining tasks were easy to complete. At about 11 PM, Finn Lewis and the Mayor of Madrid signed a transfer contract.

Finn acquired a total of 70% shares in Atletico Madrid for a stake of 215 million Southern Federation coins, including 115 million Southern Federation coins for Renzo and the remaining 100 million Southern Federation coins for the Madrid authorities. All of this was completed within minutes with a champagne toast towards the end. After that, Aguirre and the Mayor of Madrid stormed off.

Finn hadn’t left yet, but he asked Renzo to bring over the current manager of Atletico Madrid. Since Renzo had sold most of his shares, he couldn’t possibly continue managing the club. Just then, in the discussion with Madrid authorities, Finn bought not just a 30% stake, but all of their shares in Atletico Madrid.

Since he was buying, he might as well learn from Arthur of Chelsea, “Since I’ve already bought so much, I wonder if Mr. Renzo could do me a favor?” Finn thought about it and then asked.

“Mr. Lewis, do you want to buy all of Atletico Madrid’s shares?” Renzo guessed what Finn had in mind, as he bought all the shares of Madrid’s authorities. For someone like Finn, if he was, like he said, going to buy a football club to dominate the world’s top clubs, then he might as well do it like Chelsea’s owner Arthur. Otherwise, if you don’t own 100% of the club, the debt and transfer fees, among other things, can become problematic.

“Yes,” Finn nodded succinctly. Renzo thought it over, chuckled bitterly, and said: “I had originally wanted to keep a 6% stake, I’m still fond of it. But, since Mr. Lewis you are so ambitious, I’ll sell it all to you. I just can’t keep up with you.” Renzo made a joke.
