Chapter 460: A loss of 7 billion
The negotiations lasted until 11 o'clock in the evening, and before William could use an off-board move, the people from the Banque de France actually took the initiative to ask William to live in the manor after receiving a phone call so that the negotiations would be more convenient.
Although the manor in London is large, there are only 12 rooms that can live, not to mention William, who does not want outsiders to live in his house.
But Pierre's abnormal behavior, William understood after a little thought that this was an accident at the bank, and in this form, the negotiation team that let the bank go is really idiotic.
After thinking about it, a phone call was made to the airline, and after more than forty minutes, five helicopters appeared over the manor, and the two negotiation teams of Bank and Yueshida, which had been prepared for a long time, boarded four helicopters in batches.
The helicopters took off and landed, which made the paparazzi and reporters waiting outside the manor confused, and they couldn't understand why there were so many helicopters in the manor at 12 o'clock at night.
After waiting for more than 20 minutes, the last helicopter carrying William took off and flew away in the direction of Oxford.
When they flew to Oxford, the reporters learned that William had taken the Banque de France men to avoid them and go to a more secluded castle to continue the conversation.
The helicopter, which had been following behind, had just entered the 34,000 acres of land that William had bought, when a warning sound appeared in the pilot's headset.
They were warned that they had flown into private territory, and after three warnings, the castle had the right to act in limited self-defense, and they would be responsible for any damage caused.
The reporters didn't take Sunday's warning seriously, and they hadn't encountered this kind of warning before, even if they did invade private territory, but if they couldn't use weapons, the owner of the private territory would at most use a helicopter to drive them away.
But this time these people met William and Sunday, and after three more warnings failed, the pilot and reporter of the helicopter suddenly noticed that within a radius of several kilometers, more than a dozen high-power searchlight lampposts shot straight into the sky, and then these pillars of light turned to aim at them.
More than a dozen dazzling rays of light immediately enveloped the entire plane, let alone shooting and looking at the ground and sky, and it was impossible to even open your eyes.
Fortunately, the pilot was an old bird, and immediately suspended the helicopter in the air with experience, but before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the temperature in the plane was slowly rising.
This scared the people of the plane half to death, and the pilot begged for mercy on Sunday, and then turned to fly back to London under Sunday's instructions.
Arrange for the bank negotiation team to go to the newly built 4-star standard guest building with 24 suites of 70 square meters each.
Anthony and several of the main leaders of the Moonstar negotiation team went to the castle parlor to meet William.
As soon as he saw Anthony, he was delighted and said, "BOSS, it seems that there is a big problem with the Banque de France, when I was at the manor just now, I couldn't talk about ending today's negotiations.
Pierre's attitude changed completely when he received a phone call, and it seemed that their bank was in a very bad situation, perhaps even to the point of having to sell Château Chantilly.
"Of course, this kind of opportunity is not available all the time, and if you don't lower the price, you will be a fool", William nodded with a smile, he didn't care about what was immoral to take advantage of people's danger,
With the capitalists having no moral point to speak of, William believed that the Banque de France would make the same decision as himself.
"The biggest weapon I can give you is probably that as long as the negotiation is settled, the money will be paid immediately and all in cash, and the rest is up to you, guys, now my bottom line is $3.2 billion,
Below this line, you can get 15% gain, which means that when it comes to $3.1 billion, you will have an additional bonus of $15 million, which is an extra bonus to hear clearly, so if you want to live a good life, start fighting."
"Haha, no problem".
"Hooray, BOSS".
The stimulating effect of cash is obvious, and the next day the number of people in Yueshida not only did not decrease, but there were more than a dozen assistants, and the two sides came and went for several days.
The price has also dropped from more than 5 billion at the beginning to 3.9 billion, and it has begun to talk about it again.
If you can't talk, you will continue to drag, anyway, William is not in a hurry now, and he will return to the castle in the past few days, except for meeting with the team of Yueshida every morning and evening to understand the situation,
Other times, William was either in the basement using a 3D virtual imager, drawing drawings of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, dealing with the castle's newly purchased 34,000 acres of land, or dealing with the menial work of the castle's new horse farm.
After a few more days, even a week out at sea, the search for the head of the snake and the head of the sheep and the black ghost of the eight tons of gold returned to the castle of Devonhill, and William realized that the Banque de France was in such a hurry to sell the castle of Chantilly,
It is because a trader in their bank not only made a big loss when he used the bank's reputation to speculate in futures, but also took advantage of the bank's unfavorable supervision to buy and sell short on a false basis.
On Sunday, the Bank of France was tentatively expected to lose at least $7 billion this time, and $7 billion is exactly two full years of profit for the bank.
What's even more deadly is that if this thing is exposed, the reputation of their bank will immediately fall to the bottom.
However, everyone understands that this kind of thing cannot be completely covered up, and it is only a matter of time before it is exposed, and now their greatest hope is to fill this hole first.
That's why the Banque de France was so anxious to talk to William about Château Chantilly and the antiques in the castle because of the $5 billion in cash he had in the bank.
With this money, their bank doesn't even need to issue new shares to get through.
That afternoon, William had seen the black ghost that had returned, put away the two snakeheads and sheep heads that he had brought back, and before he could say a few words, Pierre, the general manager of the Banque de France, knocked on the door and asked for a private conversation with William.
"Is there anything I said in that big tree?" asked William, inviting Pierre to sit down, and asked the black ghost standing upright.
"Yes, sir, things are indeed in the big tree,"
"Very well," another eight tons of gold was about to arrive, which put William in a good mood, "We'll talk later" waved his hand to let the black ghost leave first.
The Black Ghost bowed and slowly exited the room.
William walked over to the wine cabinet and asked Pierre, "What are you drinking, Monsieur Pierre?"
"Whatever, it would be nice to have a good French wine," said Pierre listlessly.
"What about Latour in '90?"
These words lifted up Pierre, who was in a terrible mood, "Monsieur Devon Hill, you really have a 90-year-old Latour? This is a good wine of the reserve level."
"Haha, it seems that you are also a wine lover," William snapped his fingers, and the hidden wine cabinet immediately automatically sent a bottle of 90-year-old Latour from the underground wine cellar.
Taking out the wine bottle from the wine cabinet, William was very satisfied with this hidden and burglar-proof wine cabinet, and no one would be able to scavenge good wine directly from his wine cabinet in the future.
