Rebirth of the Financial Overlord

I don't want to lose face?

Seeing the Chief Minister and Foreign Minister Graeme who suddenly spoke, Norman Lamont was so angry that he almost scolded his mother. This kind of matter can't be blamed on his Minister of Finance no matter what. It's a matter of asking him to go to someone to discuss.

Those present are all old politicians, whoever is not a guy who can smoke from the nose, the Minister of International Trade and the Chairman of the Trade Committee, Julian Shapo, saw that Lamont wanted to refute, and quickly pulled up the sidelines.

"I agree with Graeme's proposal, there is no one more suitable than Lord Lamont."

"Your Excellency Shapu is right. According to the information provided by MI5, Robert John, an executive of Capital One, had a friendship with His Excellency Lamont. I believe that through Robert John's relationship, there will be a meeting in this negotiation." Good start."

"."

Robert John?

Why didn't I know that I still had such a classmate?

Norman Lamont was dumbfounded. He thought about it for a long time, but he never remembered that he had such a classmate.

Suddenly, but a vague face gradually emerged from memory.

Many years ago, when I was in middle school in Lamont, a skinny guy who looked a little stupid and a little timid came to the school. After being teased by him several times, he found that the heir of this kind of down-and-out family was quite suitable to be the heir. The follower was the one to blame.

Stuffing cockroaches into the teacher's textbooks, peeking at female classmates changing clothes, or slapping female classmates' asses, and similar things filled Lamont's happy middle school years.

Of course, these things will be borne by others in the end, that is, the servants that Lamont accepted at that time.

Damn it, it can't be that cheap idiot.

"Norman, that's it. I believe you will bring us good news."

"."

God!

How could you do this to me.

Sister John May's decision made Norman Lamont almost go crazy. Given the relationship he had with Robert John, it was easy to know that the situation would be very bad.

Why do you have to let me go?

Lamont felt like a little daughter-in-law who was sold into a brothel to pick up customers, but all eyes were on him, and Major's words completely cornered him.

"Okay! I'll try my best, but I can't guarantee that I can convince that guy."

Presumably to explain his possible loss, Lamont added.

"Capital is after profits, and the current market favors sellers. It is very difficult for us to persuade a financial giant to give up the profits that can be seen."

Lamont was telling the truth.

The nature of capital is to pursue profit, just as Dunning Court said: if there is a profit of 10%, capital will be ready to move; if there is a profit of 100%, capital will get carried away; You can do anything you want.

Given the predicament the pound is currently facing, anyone can imagine how much advantage the seller has. It is undoubtedly as difficult as heaven to make an international financial giant give up this advantage.

"What's your opinion?"

John Major spread his hands and asked the congressmen present.

The Chancellors of the Exchequer looked at each other and reached some kind of agreement in an instant.

"Mr. Brook mentioned this issue before I came here. He believes that the current market has reached the limit of selling, there is a serious shortage of buyers, and the market does not have enough money to pay the seller's profits. If it continues, I am afraid it will not be an international market." The results that capital wants to see, they can't get more profits."

"But they can get there by selling them cheaper."

"That's why we need to talk to that bastard, but it's something we can talk to."

"Your Excellency Lamont, what else do you want to say?"

"."

You guys have finished talking, what else can I say.

Norman Lamont had a bitter face, and he wanted to vomit more blood in his heart, but he also had to admit that Pound Brook was indeed very foresight. If he had followed his advice back then, this country would not have come to the end of the world. This is the point today.

"There are no other questions, but in view of Mr. Pound Brook's financial and economic capabilities, I would like to hire him as a special advisor for this meeting."

"It's simple. The Prime Minister's Office will send an invitation letter to Mr. Brooke. I believe he will agree."

September in the UK is in an alternating climate. The sun may still be shining brightly in the morning, and there will be heavy rain in the afternoon, and suddenly there will be continuous autumn rain. The weather that changes at any time makes people subconsciously feel the impermanence of heaven.

As for the temperature, it can vary significantly depending on where you are in the UK, for example Scotland and the North tend to be five to ten degrees Celsius colder than London and the South East. Likewise, Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cumbria and Northumberland in Scotland and the north of the UK saw significantly more rain.

When you are walking on mountain roads, by the lake or in the countryside or engaging in outdoor sports, it will be a wise choice to bring a lightweight rainproof jacket.

Stepping on the rain, walking on the banks of the Thames with an umbrella, watching the drizzle falling from the sky like a dream, the drizzle made Shen Jiannan feel an indescribable sense of guilt.

Under an overpass not far away, several elderly people in their fifties and sixties curled up together, staring at the sky in a few thin clothes. Beside them, there were three young children who looked only seven or eight years old. The immature face is full of hope and looks around.

Their clothing was dusty, but the fashion and texture of the fabric suggested that these people were not professional bums.

What's going on, Shen Jiannan didn't have a clue in his mind.

Wealth is something that is always left-handed and right-handed. As the Tao Te Ching says, the way of heaven damages what is more than makes up for what is not enough.

He has now earned 4.8 billion U.S. dollars in the UK, and the money will naturally be distributed to every British person. If he is unlucky, he can only go bankrupt along with the Bank of England.

Looking at the blue and flawless eyes of the three children, Shen Jiannan felt a tinge of pity in his cold heart, wondering if these children would die due to immunity in the future.

But now that he saw it, something had to be done out of humanitarianism.

"Monkey. Do you have any money with you?"

"Boss, these foreign devils are still in Hong Kong, what do you care about them?"

"You can't say that, the child is innocent."

"."

Tang Dunhou pouted, but he still took out his wallet and took out a handful of banknotes.

There were 5, 10, 20 and 50 denominations of British pounds, as well as 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 new pence. Shen Jiannan looked at them, took out a few fifty new pence, and threw them on the ground.

"Thanks!"

"Thanks!"

The childish voice of thanks came from behind, and the tone full of gratitude made Shen Jiannan feel less guilty.

Maybe the money is not much, but at least, he is still alone.

ring ring ring——

Walking to a section of the bridge, the phone Shen Jiannan was carrying with him suddenly rang.

The call was from William, who was as excited as a duck who had been prostituted as soon as he opened his mouth.

"BOSS. My cheap old man called just now. He said that the cabinet intends to let Norman Lamont talk to us."

"Lamont? The one who understands the king?"

"Well, it's the Minister of Finance who said he knows everything, but they may first contact the old carrot to test your attitude. The old carrot seems to have known Lamont before."
