Chapter Eighty-Nine: Give Me a Lever

Four hundred million pounds.

Even if Thomas Cook is full of upset, under this number, his heart is still beating wildly.

With so much money loaned, the bonus you can get will definitely be a huge amount.

Moreover, as the CEO of Standard Chartered Bank, he is well aware that the real value of those shares held by Capital One is not the possibility of overdue bad debts as long as there is no problem with international creditworthiness.

Is there a less risky business than this?

No.

"John. What you're saying is true?"

"Of course. Do you think I'm kidding you to be kidding about such a big thing, and we have to buy 400 million pounds of three-month government bonds. ”

Loans, buying government bonds?

What the hell is this?

Thomas Cook was full of doubts, and he couldn't understand what Shen Jiannan and his party were doing.

The long-term interest rate in the UK has not been high, and naturally, the yield on government bonds will not be very high.

But what does it matter.

British government bonds, which are well-known gilts in the world, are backed by the Ministry of Finance, and there is no risk of overdue losses at all.

It is even safer to invest cash in government bonds than to deposit them in banks.

If all customers take out loans to invest in state bonds, then there is no possibility of bad debts for banks, and their performance will not have to explode.

Happiness came too suddenly.

Thomas Cook's face twisted, trying to restrain the excitement.

"Thank you so much, Robert. I apologize for my previous attitude. ”

"Oh. Didn't I say that, Thomas? I really didn't blame you, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know the boss and I wouldn't be where I am today. ”

“......”

Banks are the ultimate institutions in the capital system.

As a bank, you can fool customers with just one mouth, but you will never be fooled by customers with one mouth.

Soon, Thomas Cook suppressed the excitement in his heart and showed the professional qualities of a banker.

Shareholding verification, risk verification.

Soon, with the concerted action of all staff, Thomas Cook determined Capital One's risk rating.

There is no risk at all.

The collateral for the loan is the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, with a total share capital of 14.85%, which is worth at least US$800 million at the current value of Standard Chartered, and the loan is worth 400 million pounds, which is completely within the approval risk line stipulated by the bank.

The purchase is a state gilt bond, and the bond is redeemed at maturity in three months, and there will be no loss at all, that is, there is no possibility of overdue at all.

Is there any reason not to borrow?

It's literally delivered to your door to make money for yourself.

Thomas Cook's eyes became very strange, and he couldn't help but really believe that Robert John was thanking him.

Otherwise, such a large amount of business, no matter which bank you go to, will receive the most grand treatment.

But it's understandable.

As a major shareholder of a bank, the bank makes money and naturally enjoys dividends.

He is really a capitalist who will not let go of any value.

As a result, there were no surprises.

It didn't take long for the bank to complete all the loan procedures. After 400 million pounds were transferred to the First Capital Account, another 400 million pounds of three-month bearer short-term bonds were directly bought.

Expected return, 3.2 percent.

Soon, Shen Jiannan and his entourage took the treasury bond certificate in their hands and walked out of the bank gate under the congratulations of Thomas Cook.

In the dark and shiny Rolls-Royce, Yulia Sidorov and Qina Kanovski were leaning together drinking red wine, and when Shen Jiannan got into the car, the two said excitedly.

"My dear. All the best. ”

"Of course. ”

"It's been amazing. ”

The two took the wine glasses and kissed Shen Jiannan on the face excitedly.

With the £400 million British government debt, everything will go very smoothly.

The car spoke silently and slowly.

Shen Jiannan sat between the two of them with a grin, wantonly enjoying the delicacy and lingering fragrance at his fingertips.

"Now. It's up to you. ”

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

City of London, headquarters of HSBC.

A tall Russian girl swayed with dizzying steps and walked into the bank hall.

Her delicate facial features are three-dimensional, her fair skin is as bright as snow, and her red lips are particularly moving, because she is clasped with a dark black sunglasses, which makes people want to explore.

It was none other than Qina Kanoski, who came to the bank to do business.

Everyone has a love for beauty.

The moment Qi Na walked into the lobby of HSBC, countless pairs of eyes were cast.

The white position of the peaks and mountains, a string of diamond necklaces exuding dreamy colors, make her as beautiful as a princess, and her flawless face is moving, which makes some people feel that they have met love at first sight.

Love always has a magical power.

Someone couldn't sit still.

A handsome young man, with his blond hair tucked away, walked out of the crowd.

"Hi. Beauty, can you get acquainted?"

Qina Kanovski didn't stop walking, and she simply spat out a word.

"Get out!"

"Beauty, you're too ...... like this"

What is the identity of Qina Kanoski, she is the daughter of the head of the Federal Security Service of the Polar Bear, how can she let people molest. Before the handsome young man's words were finished, two short-haired female bodyguards in suits and leather shoes suddenly crossed over to Qi Na and looked coldly at Erwuzai, who dared to block the way.

The predecessor of the Polar Bear Federal Security Service, but the KGB, the guards who could follow Qina out, which of them were not contaminated with a lot of lives.

A cold fear made the blonde young man feel excited, as if he had encountered a natural enemy, and as soon as he made eye contact with two ordinary short-haired female bodyguards, he felt an extreme deep cold.

It was a very humiliating thing, but the handsome blonde man simply raised his hand to show that he was not hostile, and kept retreating.

There was no way, he clearly saw that the female bodyguard's hand had touched her waist, and she could think of it with her buttocks, what was she going to do.

Admit cowardice or say cruel words to save a little face for yourself?

There's no need to choose at all.

Because, this is London, England.

The oldest capitalist country.

"Sauri. Amoury Sauri. Please forgive my faux pas. ”

"Get out. ”

The young man did not dare to make any rebuttal as if he had been pardoned, and walked out of the bank with a disgraced face. Even though he felt like his face was being trampled on the ground and rubbed.

The manager of the bank hall noticed the situation and trotted over quickly.

"Honorable Miss, I'm sorry to have you been harassed. I'm Oliver Shackleton, the lobby manager of the bank, and I don't know what I can do for you?"

"Oh. Hello, I am the director of Kamandi Investment Company, my company is having a little difficulty in turnover, I hope you can help me. ”

"Honorable Miss, please follow me. ”

“......”

Almost at the same time, Yulia Sidorov walked into the Bank of Scotland with four professional female bodyguards.

Her delicate facial features, petite and delicate figure, and luxurious and noble dress immediately attracted the attention of many people in the bank.

The manager of the bank hall did not dare to delay, and walked over respectfully at the first time.

"Hello, noble and beautiful young lady. I'm Nelson, the lobby manager, and I don't know what I can do for you?"

"Hello. My company is in a little bit of difficulty, I wonder if your bank can help me?"

"Miss, please follow me. We need to know the specifics of your company. ”
