Looking at the yacht, Li Du and the others were taken aback.
Magnificent, extravagant, charming, luxurious, and noble. These words, which were suited for royal families and aristocrats, could be used on the super-yacht as it was indeed really amazing!
When in front of Li Du, Sophie had never shown a materialistic side before. Regardless of whether she saw a luxury car or a luxury house, she would at the most make two comments about it and not show her desire for it.
But she was moved after seeing the Sea X-90 yacht. She muttered, ”Oh my, so beautiful, it's so beautiful. If we could have it . . . I can't imagine how exciting having it would be!”
Hans pointed at the yacht and exclaimed, ”That's the one. Li, Boss Li, my heart tells me that it's the boat that fits us!”
Li Du was also moved. He asked, ”How much does this yacht cost?”
Rooney smiled. ”Don't be anxious. Please allow me to introduce it first. Otherwise, once I say its price, you guys may not be in the mood to listen to my introduction.
”The yachts in this series are categorized into three groups based on their size: namely X-65, X-90, and X-100. The number at the back reflects the length of the yacht. This yacht is a 90-meter long super-yacht that can hold up to 30 passengers and 50 crew members.
”As the yachts in this series adopted Damen Shipyards's Damen Sea Axe design, they are able to withstand an impact force twice that of what other boats in their category are able to.
”Our engineers have added an ice-breaking mechanism onto the stern of the yachts. When the yachts encounter ice sheets up to a thickness of 90 centimeters, the two pod propellers on the yachts can rotate 180 degrees and break the ice sheets.
”In other words, this yacht can break ice sheets that are less than 90 centimeters in thickness. As a matter of fact, this number is 20 percent lower than the threshold value.
That is to say, this yacht can break apart ice sheets up to a thickness of 108 centimeters . . .
”The yacht is also equipped with a lifeboat, an inflatable boat, diving equipment, a motorboat, etcetera. The yacht has a four-level deck with indoor and outdoor saloons, an elevator, a diving center, a swimming pool, a sauna, a dining hall, a gym, etcetera . . . ”
”What's its price?” Hans could not help but interrupt his words with a question.
Rooney beamed, and said, ”20,000,000 to 30,000,000 AUD.”
Everyone simultaneously inhaled a breath of cold air!
Even though the price was very shocking, it was still in the acceptable range for magnates. Truth be told, in the yacht industry, there were a lot of luxury yachts that had prices exceeding 1,000,000,000 USD.
Simply put, there were too many magnates in the world who had shockingly high spending power.
Li Du had exactly 30,000,000 USD on him. Although he could buy the yacht if he was to make up his mind and grit his teeth, was buying the yacht necessary?
Moreover, all of his money was placed in Wells Fargo for investment purposes. If he wanted to withdraw the money, he would have to make an appointment one week in advance.
After hearing the price, everyone was no longer interested in the yacht.
All except for Hans. Hans, who was still extremely interested, shouted, ”Buy it, Li, buy this beautiful b*stard! Only strong men are worthy of beautiful women. This yacht ought to be yours—”
Li Du pushed him away and said, ”I think it's more suitable for you, good mate. Why not you buy it? I will contribute 2,000,000 USD. You don't have to pay me back.”
Hans immediately became dispirited. How could he possibly have so much money?
The yacht was custom-made for an American magnate, who was said to be preparing to go on an Arctic expedition.
