Reborn Financial Overlord

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

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

"..."

oh my 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 young daughter-in-law who was sold into a brothel to receive 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 [-]%, capital will be ready to move; if there is a profit of [-]%, 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, a few elderly people in their 60s and [-]s 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. His face was full of hope and he looked 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 48 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.

有5、10、20和50面额的英镑，也有1、2、5、10、20、50新便士，沈建南看了看，抽出了几张五十的新便士，丢到了地上。

"Thank you!"

"Thank you!"

Childish voices of thanks came from behind, and the grateful tone made Shen Jiannan feel less guilty.

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

bell bell -

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."

"..."

Chapter 122

The old carrot actually knew Norman Lamont. This was news that surprised Shen Jiannan. Before this, the old carrot had never said that he knew the British Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Shen Jiannan raised his eyebrows involuntarily. Robert John knows a lot of things. If he is really an old acquaintance with the British Chancellor of the Exchequer, this is not good news.But soon he was relieved, even if the old carrot really knew Norman Lamont, the relationship between the two would definitely not be easy.

Otherwise, how could this guy stay in Shencheng all the time, praying to God every day for him to leave.

Now, it depends on whether this guy will confess himself.

at the same time.

In a coffee shop in the financial district, a man in his 50s was sitting opposite Robert John.

The man's face was full of excitement and excitement, and his eyes were shining brightly, as if he was as enthusiastic and happy as meeting an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

As for the old carrot head, the expression on his face is relatively lacking, with a dead face, eyebrows raised, eyelids rolled up, looking at the Patek Philippe watch in his hand from time to time, not at all the attitude of a gentleman meeting an old friend, just like, He was full of impatience and disgust like an insurer who was selling insurance.

Because it is true that the two have not seen each other for many years, but they are not friends at all, and some small grievances have accumulated.

Mason Rowan, like Robert John, used to be Norman Lamont's follower in middle school, but unlike the old carrot, Mason Rowan, whose family is still relatively wealthy, has been with Norman Lamont since middle school. Monte is here now.

This happened for more than 30 years. After Norman Lamont was hired by John Major to be the Chancellor of the Exchequer, his younger brother who had been with Lamont for many years naturally also took up the post together, and was successfully hired by the Ministry of Finance as a special financial advisor.

Is that okay?

How can Britain's clean government and electoral system have nepotism.

The above statement is pure nonsense.

The government bureaucracy of Great Britain itself is a network of human relationships, just like the relationship between John Major and Hong Kong Governor Chris Patten. Jay's full support behind him, and Major's appointment as prime minister was all due to Patten's efforts during the election.

Even Mrs. Thatcher was forced to resign, this person has put in a lot of effort.

As for a mere special adviser to the Ministry of Finance, it is even a piece of cake.

"Robert, do you remember when we rode our bicycles along the Thames to Grace, and when we got on the road, my bicycle broke down and you fixed it for me."

Remember?

How could I not remember!

Looking at his classmate Mason Rowan, whom he ran across on the street, Robert John showed an undisguised mockery on his face.

"Then that Lamont guy unscrewed half of the tire on my bike, and you're watching, and I end up in a ditch."

"..."

The smile on Mason Rowan's face froze.

Under Lamont's order, he thought hard for a long time but did not think of how to contact Robert John without being abrupt. With the suggestion of his colleagues, he finally settled on the routine of encountering old acquaintances by chance to increase the relationship.

But who knows, this guy Robert John can't speak at all, as long as he opens his mouth, he will kill him directly, so that he doesn't know how to continue.

What's even worse is that this guy has a dead face, with his nostrils upturned like he's looking at a pile of bird droppings.

damn it.

If it wasn't for his responsibility, Luo Wen really wanted to quietly push Robert John into the latrine like he did back then.

But it doesn't work. The cabinet takes this matter very seriously. If Lamont can't figure it out, he might be fired immediately, so he, the consultant, can only be fired along with him.

Reluctantly smiling dryly to cover up his embarrassment and aggrievedness, Luo Wen had no choice but to try to change the subject.

"Do you still remember that year when we played basketball together in school? You jumped and hit a three-pointer. I will never forget it until now?"

"Why don't I remember what you said? I just remember that one time when we were playing football, that bastard Lamont kicked the window of Mr. Gossman's house. You opened your eyes and lied that I did it and killed me. He was chased and beaten by Mr. Gossman."

"..."

Robert John was like a thorny hedgehog, the smile on Mason Rowan's face was almost frozen. No matter what happy topic he said, Robert John immediately poured cold water on it.

How did this bastard survive until now?

Didn't starve to death?

Hell, how could a company like Capital One hire such an idiot.

Mason Luo Wen was so angry that he just wanted to scold his mother, so he couldn't figure out how a guy like Old Carrot would hold an important position in a company like Capital One.

It was impossible to talk about the past, but the situation was stronger than others, so Mason Rowan had no choice but to show a shameful expression.

"John. I'm really sorry. I didn't expect my unintentional actions when I was young to hurt you so much. I hope you can forgive me!"

With such a solemn apology, what can the old carrot say, besides, it is already something young, and he has already put it down.

"Rowan, I accept your apology. It's all over, it's because of my bad attitude just now."

"I can understand, but I really didn't expect those things to hurt you so much."

"It's all in the past. We were all children then, and I know you have no malicious intentions."

"Thank you for your understanding. How have you been doing these years? I have asked many people about you, but none of them."

"..."

"..."

"Robert, I sympathize with what happened to you. If I knew at that time, I would definitely vent my anger on you."

"Oh. It's all over, and I'm very happy now. I'm getting married to Lucy next month, and I hope you can come to attend."

"..."

Nima, scum.

Mason Luowan cursed in his heart, almost suffocated to death by the old carrot's three views, but there was the most eager smile on his face.

"Oh, this is really great, then I wish you a happy wedding in advance!"

"Thank you!"

"Robert, what do you think of this? We called all our former classmates to hold a party."

"Oh, that's a good idea. I don't know how they are doing now."

"..."

"..."

"That's it, what do you think of the party at the Calome Hotel tonight?"

"..."

Soon, Mason Rowan left excitedly.
