Each person had a list in their hands, ready to discuss one by one. Hardy pointed to the first name on the list and said, "Yokosuka Naval Shipyard, located near Tokyo Bay, and one of Japan's four major shipyards. How much do you think it's worth?"
At this point, a representative from the Mellon Foundation spoke up, "Back when Japan was building the Yokosuka Shipyard, they purchased equipment from our shipbuilding company under the Mellon Foundation, and we provided guidance. If I remember correctly, the total investment in the Yokosuka Shipyard back then, converted into U.S. dollars, was about 45 million dollars.
"As for the current value, even with damages, it's still worth at least 8 million dollars." The Mellon representative gave a very low estimate.
No one objected. This price was indeed already quite low.
Hardy thought for a moment and said, "How about we set it at 3.85 million dollars?"
