He’s not wrong, if he kept the 6% share, it wouldn’t be a problem. But then there comes an issue. If Finn Lewis paid a transfer fee of 200 million South Federation currency, he too would have to pay in proportion to his shares. Otherwise, his shares would shrink. Since Finn Lewis already has more than 50% of the shares which is dictated by the Board’s decision, Renzo really has no choice.

So… he might as well sell directly to Finn Lewis, because it’s simply too expensive to keep playing the game! Although he had some wealth, his total assets were only about four or five hundred million South Federation currency. Finn Lewis squandered nearly 300 million of that in just one night. He certainly can’t compete with Finn Lewis’ spending.

In the end, Renzo directly sold the remaining 6% of the shares in his hands to Finn Lewis. According to market price, he didn’t ask Finn Lewis for a higher price. Now, Finn Lewis held 76% of Atletico Madrid’s shares, with the remaining 24% concentrated in the hands of three small shareholders. However, with Renzo’s connections, these small shareholders also understood the situation very well.

Whether or not they sold, they would have to. They simply couldn’t keep up with Finn Lewis’ spending. Even if Finn Lewis didn’t approach them, he could simply make a hostile acquisition of Atletico Madrid, just like buying a company. Either they quit the game or they followed suit to invest. But these small shareholders didn’t have such a huge amount of funds. If the major shareholder had not much more assets than they did, that would have been fine.

For example, like Renzo. But now, the major shareholder was the world’s richest man! It was obvious that they can’t compete with him. Moreover, the speed and way Finn Lewis bought things made them blush with shame. So, wisely, these small shareholders sold, and by a little past midnight, Finn Lewis held 100% of Atico Madrid’s shares. It can be said that the entire Atletico Madrid club now belonged to Finn Lewis!

Of course, Finn Lewis also had to bear Atletico Madrid’s debt of up to 500 million South Federation currency, as well as the salaries of other players in the entire club. But these were not problems for Finn Lewis at all.

Although the signing of the related transfer contracts had passed midnight and it was already the wee hours according to local time, Finn Lewis still asked Renzo to call the club manager, Jose Luis Harrison. When Jose got the call, he had no clue about what was happening. But it was an urgent call from Elder at the club, which required him to directly go to the latter’s house this late. So, Jose thought something big had happened and immediately rushed to Renzo’s house.

After entering the house, Jose immediately saw Finn Lewis in the room. But Jose didn’t recognize Finn Lewis, instead, he looked at the middle-aged man, Renzo, curiously.

“Cough, come here Jose, let me introduce you. I have just sold my shares in the club. Now, the club has a new owner.” Renzo coughed twice before speaking directly.

Jose was taken aback, then he spoke incredulously, “Mr. Renzo, you must be joking, right?”

“Of course not, in fact, not only did I sell my shares, but even the Madrid officials sold their shares to Mr. Lewis. In fact, the entire Atletico Madrid club’s shareholder — the only shareholder — is the Mr. Finn Lewis you see in front of you.” Renzo hastily introduced Finn Lewis.

“Finn Lewis? The Finn Lewis?” Jose paused, then remembered some things, looked directly at Finn Lewis, and asked.

“Of course, the world’s richest man, Finn Lewis. Hello, Jose Luis Harrison, pleased to meet you.” Finn Lewis stood straight from the sofa and extended his hand for a handshake.

Jose paused, then hurriedly shook hands with Finn Lewis. But his mind was completely confused. Finn Lewis? The world’s richest man? The world’s richest man bought Atletico Madrid? He was stunned! All he knew for sure was, damn, he doesn’t have to feel so stifled anymore!

“Mr…Mr. Lewis, may I ask, what is your goal in buying Atletico Madrid?” Jose, excited, asked somewhat ** breathlessly.

“Nothing much, I have a principle — anything I do, I try to be the best at it. So, there’s no need to say more about the goal, right?” Finn Lewis said with a smile.

“Understood, understood. Also, I have one more question.” Jose hesitated for a moment before he stammered again.

“I know what you’re going to ask. Since I’ve bought the entire Atletico Madrid, then you can rest assured, Jose. I’m not a stingy person.” Finn Lewis responded with a grin. After speaking, Finn Lewis directly took out his checkbook, wrote a check for 100 million South Federation currency, and handed it to Jose, “Tomorrow, you will cash the money in this check into the club’s account. Then, you go to Real Madrid for me. You have a very important task. We have a 50% transfer right with Real Madrid for Elias, right? Tomorrow, throw 70 million South Federation currency in Real Madrid’s face, tell them, the transfer rights to Elias will all be in our hands.”

“No problem!” Jose suddenly felt as if a surge of electricity burst out of his body, and he became excited. Damn, as city rivals, he had been wanting to do this many times! But there was no opportunity before. And now! Just thinking about the feeling of throwing money in Real Madrid’s face, Jose felt as refreshing as eating ice on a hot summer day.

“I will personally handle this! Mr. Lewis, as long as you let me do this, it’s okay if I resign later. I can go to our club and be an ordinary employee!” Jose spoke excitedly.

Finn Lewis almost laughed out loud. To be honest, these soccer guys really treated this city rival as a mortal enemy. With this opportunity, Jose obviously wouldn’t let it pass.

“Alright, then I leave this to you.” Finn Lewis agreed straightforwardly.

“But, another problem is that Real Madrid has just signed a new contract with Elias. According to the contract, if we buy all the transfer rights to Elias, that means we have to take over the new contract Elias signed with Real Madrid.” Jose hesitated for a moment, then asked again.

“No problem, the one thing I lack the least is money.” Finn Lewis responded with a grin.

With this said, Jose immediately felt like there was no problem. If Finn Lewis has said it, it’s not a problem, right? In fact, Finn Lewis had considered this issue of buying the club in the afternoon. The Flame Nation football problem is a headache, but owning an international top club should have some effect on it, right? Now that the club was bought, it was just like buying a big toy!

“I understand.” Jose responded cheerfully.

“Good, that’s it then. Also, inform the entire club tomorrow that all the staff, including the players, will get a 10% raise.” Finn Lewis added casually, shrugging.
