Chapter 121: The End of the Ransacked
Don't I want to lose face?
Looking at Graeme, the Chief Minister and Foreign Secretary, who suddenly spoke, Norman Lamont was so angry that he almost didn't scold his mother. This kind of thing can't be counted on his Chancellor of the Exchequer, so let him go to someone to talk about it.
The people present were all old politicians, who were not guys with smoking noses, and Julian Shapu, the Secretary of State for International Trade and Chairman of the Board of Trade, saw that Lamont wanted to refute, and hurriedly pulled up the sideline.
"I agree with Graeme's proposal, and there is no better candidate than Lord Lamont. ”
"Your Excellency Shapu is right, according to the information provided by MI5, Capital One executives Robert John and His Excellency Lamont have been classmates, and I believe that through Robert John's relationship, this negotiation will definitely get off to a good start. ”
“......”
Robert John?
How did I not know that I had such a classmate?
Norman Lamont was dumbfounded, he thought about it for a long time, but he didn't remember that he had such a classmate.
Suddenly, but a blurry face gradually emerged from memory.
Many years ago, when Lamont was in middle school, there was a thin guy in the school who looked a little stupid and a little timid, and after being teased by him several times, he found that the heir of this kind of down-and-out family was quite suitable for being a follower.
Stuffing cockroaches in the teacher's textbook, peeking at a female classmate changing clothes, or slapping a female classmate's buttocks, things like that, filled Lamont's happy middle school years.
Of course, these things will be borne by someone else in the end, that is, Lamont's followers at that time.
Damn it, it can't be that shitty idiot.
"Norman, that's it. I'm sure you'll have good news for us. ”
“......”
Oh my God!
How can you do this to me.
John May's finale made Norman Lamont almost crazy, and with his relationship with Robert John, it doesn't take any thought to know that the situation is going to be bad.
Why do you have to let me go?
Lamont felt like a young daughter-in-law who had been sold into a brothel to pick up clients, but all eyes were on him, and Major's words had completely cornered him.
"Okay! I'll try to, but I can't promise I'll be able to convince that guy. ”
Presumably for the possibility of his own defeat, Lamont added.
"Capital is profit-seeking, and now the market is in favor of sellers, and we want to convince a financial predator to give up the profits that can be seen, which is very difficult. ”
Lamont was telling the truth.
The nature of capital is to pursue profits, just as Dunningge said: if there is 10 percent profit, capital is ready to move, if there is 100 percent profit, capital will get carried away, and if there is 300 percent profit, then everything can be done on the gallows.
Given the dilemma that the pound is currently facing, anyone can imagine how much advantage the seller has, and it is no wonder that an international financial predator will give up this advantage.
"What do you think?"
John.. Major asked, spreading his hands over to the lawmakers.
The chancellors of the exchequer looked at each other and in an instant came to some kind of agreement.
"I mentioned this problem before I came, Mr. Brooke believes that the current market has reached the limit of selling, there is a serious shortage of buyers, the market does not have enough money to pay the seller's profits, and if it continues, I am afraid it will not be the result that international capital wants to see, and they will not be able to get more profits. ”
"But they can do it by selling it cheaper. ”
"That's why we need to talk to that bastard, but that's also the capital we can talk to. ”
"Lord Lamont, what else do you have to say?"
“......”
You've said that, what else do I say?
Norman Lamont had a bitter face, and he had to vomit more blood in his heart, but he also had to admit that Pound Brooke was indeed very prescient, and if he had followed his advice, the country would not have come to this point.
"There are no other issues, but in view of the financial and economic competence of Mr. Pound Brooke, I would like to hire him as a special adviser for this meeting. ”
"It's simple, the Prime Minister's Office will send an invitation to Mr. Brooke, and I'm sure he will agree. ”

September in the UK is in the alternating phase of the climate, the morning may still be sunny, the afternoon will be torrential downpour, and suddenly the autumn rain will continue, and the weather can change at any time, which makes people subconsciously feel the impermanence of the heavens.
As for temperatures, depending on the geographical location in the UK, temperatures can vary significantly, such as Scotland and the north, which tend to be five to ten degrees Celsius colder than London and the South East. Similarly, Scotland and Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cumbria and Northumberland in the north of the UK saw significantly more rain.
When you're walking on mountain roads, lakes or in the countryside, or when you're outdoors, it's a smart idea to pack a lightweight rain jacket.
Stepping on the rain, walking on the banks of the Thames with an umbrella, watching the dreamlike drizzle falling from the sky, the drizzle made Shen Jiannan feel an indescribable sense of guilt.
Not far away, under an overpass, several old men in their fifties and sixties were huddled together, staring blankly at the sky with a few thin clothes, and beside them, there were still three young children who looked only seven or eight years old, looking around with immature faces full of hope.
Their clothes were covered in dust, but the fashionable and textured fabrics could tell that these people were not professional vagabonds.
What's going on, Shen Jiannan is not a little forced in his heart.
Wealth is always the left hand to the right hand, just as the Tao Te Ching says, the way of heaven is more than enough to make up for the short.
He now earns $4.8 billion in Britain, and this money will naturally be distributed among every British, and if he is unlucky, he can only go bankrupt with the Bank of England.
Looking at the blue and flawless eyes of the three children, Shen Jiannan's cold heart was filled with a trace of pity, I don't know if these children will die because of immunity in the future.
But now that he saw it, something had to be done out of humanitarianism.
"Monkeys. Do you have any money with you? ”
"Boss, these foreign devils are still in our Hong Kong Huohuo, what do you care about him. ”
"You can't say that, the child is innocent. ”
“......”
Tang Dunhou pursed his lips, but still took out his wallet and took out a handful of banknotes.
There were 5, 10, 20 and 50 denominations of pounds, as well as 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 new pence, Shen Jiannan looked at it, took out a few fifty new pence, and threw them on the ground.
"Thank you!"
"Thank you!"
The immature voice of thanks came from behind, and the tone full of gratitude made Shen Jiannan's sense of guilt a lot less.
Maybe it's not a lot of money, but at least, he's still alone.
Bell Bell Bell –
Walking to a section of the bridge, the phone that Shen Jiannan was carrying suddenly rang.
The call came from William, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was as excited as a duck who had been prostituted.
“BOSS。 My cheap old man called me just now, and he said that the Cabinet was going to let Norman Lamont talk to us. ”
"Lamont, the one who understands the king?"
"Well, it's the Chancellor of the Exchequer who says he knows everything, but they'll probably try your attitude with Old Carrot first, who seems to have known Lamont before. ”
