At five o'clock in the evening, Guy Rothschild and David Rothschild set off from their home and headed straight to the airport to board a plane to London.

About nine o'clock in the evening, the living room of the castle of the Rothschild family.

This time there were only a small number of people at the meeting, only Jacob Rothschild and Evelyn Rothschild, and Guy Rothschild and David Rothschild who had traveled from France.

"Uncle Guy, is there anything new, do you need to fly over in such a hurry?"

Jacob Rothschild looked at Guy Rothesschild with a tired look on his face and asked with concern.

Before coming, David Rothschild only confirmed on the phone that he was not in London, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he hurriedly hung up the phone after a few words, so he didn't know what it was until now, but he guessed that there was a matter of caring for the Demond Rothschild Bank!

Guy Rothschild said with a solemn face: "At three o'clock this afternoon, Xia Yu took the initiative to visit me. ”

Just one sentence made Jacob Rothschild and Evelyn Rothchild's expressions change slightly, and their attention was focused a little again, and they both looked at Guy Rothschild with burning eyes.

"He learned that the French government was going to nationalize our family's bank, and offered to help us keep the bank's name and license, but his request was that he wanted our family's stakes in the Royal Bank of Scotland, Standard Chartered Bank and BP......"

After listening to Guy Rothschild's story, Jacob Rothschild and Evelyn Rothschild both looked bad.

Evelyn Rothschild asked a crucial question: "Uncle Guy, are you sure that the forces led by the three major French families want to suppress us?"

"Xia Yu took the initiative to come to the door this afternoon, there are great doubts about this behavior and motives!"

"I have to wonder if he is behind the scenes!"

Guy Rothschild said with great certainty: "I have received accurate information, it is indeed Bonaparte and the other three major families who have discussed at the meeting to drive our family, as well as the forces of Rockefeller and Morgan, out of France!"

"And the nationalization of banks is the general direction of French policy, François Mitterrand's election manifesto is also to carry out nationalization reform, this is certainly not something that Xia Yu can interfere with, even those families and consortia in France are targeted, Xia Yu's power in France cannot be stronger than them!"

"But François Mitterrand's attitude towards suppressing us is so resolute that he leaves no room for it, and I suspect that Xia Yu may have reached some deal with him, and this is the only place where Xia Yu can do it. ”

"Of course, we can only suspect that we can't produce evidence at the moment!"

"It's true that he's been busy acquiring and integrating the LVMH group in France, and this behavior is not fake, so he is now approaching our family, and it may be that he really got the news by accident......"

Hearing this, Jacob Rothschild and Evelyn Rothschild fell into deep thought.

After a long time, Jacob Rothschild nodded and said, "Uncle Guy's analysis is very objective, and these possibilities exist. ”

"Under normal circumstances, if Xia Yu wants to buy the shares of the Royal Bank of Scotland, Standard Chartered Bank and BP from us, we will never sell it to him!"

"He must have known that!"

"But now that he's got to grips with our family, we're going to have to think carefully about his request. ”

"Of course, Uncle Guy is sure that the three major French families are manipulating behind it, and if we can know the news, then Xia Yu may also know the information. ”

It is also possible that he saw an opportunity to take advantage of this and wanted to take advantage of it. ”

"But now these are secondary, and we can't investigate the situation in a short time, and even if we do, we have to compromise in the face of this desperate situation. ”

"So the most important thing now is to discuss how to cooperate with him to keep our family's bank in France as much as possible!"

With that, Jacob Rothschild looked at Guy Rothschild.

Guy Rothschild nodded, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Yes, Jacob, the equity of these three companies is in the hands of Barclays Bank, and it mainly depends on your opinion. ”

Although everyone belongs to the same family, but their interests are more important from their own territory, although the main interests of the French Edmond de Rothschild Bank are unified into the hands of the family, but there are also some books that belong to their French branch.

Similarly, Barclays Bank is mainly the basis of the interests of Jacob Rothschild, the head of the company, and Evelyn Rothschild, the British branch.

And Xia Yu's request is actually to let the family give up part of the interests on the British side in exchange for the interests of the French side.

The key is to see the attitude of Evelyn Rothschild, the head of the British branch, and Jacob Rothschild, the head of the family!

Evelyn Rothschild, the head of the British branch, shrugged her shoulders and said directly to Jacob Rothschild in front of Guy Rothschild and David Rothschild: "Jacob, the interests of the family are the most important, no matter what you decide, I have no opinion!"

Jacob Rothschild can become the head of the entire family, not only is he strong enough, but he also has enough mind and prestige.

Since Evelyn Rothschild had no opinions, he nodded directly and said, "Uncle Guy, we can agree to cooperate with him, but we have to continue to negotiate and reduce the cost as much as possible!"

"The reason why I bought the shares of Sugrand Royal Bank and Standard Chartered Bank before was to infiltrate Xia Yu's Jiuding consortium and control him. ”

"But unfortunately our plan seems to have failed, his amount of money is very scary, and he is very vigilant, the core company has not been listed, as he gets stronger and stronger, and no longer needs to rely on us to grow, the possibility of us trying to control him is getting lower and lower. ”

"So the Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered can give him equity, and I think his main target is also equity in these two companies. ”

"As for the stake in BP, it can't be given to him!"

"Now BP has only completed the first step of privatization, the government's ultimate goal is full privatization, we need this company to compete with the Rockefeller family in the oil field, it is difficult for other oil companies to compete with the Rockefeller family!"

"Now that 4 percent of BP's stake is in the hands of the Bright Fund, this is a huge potential threat, and we must start guarding against it now!

Guy Rothschild bowed slightly and said, "Then we will take care of the negotiations......"

That night, they talked late.

But the next morning, after breakfast with David Rothschild, Guy Rothschild boarded a plane back to Paris, France.

Because of the urgency of time, Guy Rothschild immediately called the Bright Fund after returning home, contacted Xia Yu and invited him to come in the afternoon, and Xia Yu readily agreed.

It was still three o'clock in the afternoon, and Xia Yu came to the luxurious manor of the Rothschild family with a team of bodyguards.

This time, without too much small talk, just a few simple greetings, the negotiations began.

Guy Rothschild preemptively asked, "Mr. Xia, we have already discussed, and we can agree to your request, but only if you have to fully protect our Edmond Rothschild Bank." ”

Xia Yu refused without hesitation: "Please forgive me for not being able to do it, only François Mitterrand can do this in the whole of France, but the price at which he made the Edmond Rothschild Bank a special case is the failure of the reform and the loss of the presidency!"

"Monsieur Guy Rothschild, who do you think can get François Mitterrand to give up his presidency?"

Guy Rothschild was not surprised at all, he offered such a high condition, which was nothing more than the price of killing Xia Yu.

Therefore, he immediately said: "Mr. Xia, if you can't do it, then your request is unreasonable, whether it is the Royal Bank of Scotland, Standard Chartered Bank or the shares of the British National Petroleum Company, they are all extremely high-quality assets......

......

Next, Xia Yu had a fierce confrontation with Guy Rothschild and David Rothschild, Guy Rothschild was old and frail, and when he was tired, he replaced David Rothschild on the field, Xia Yu can be said to be one against two, but he is not bad at all in terms of momentum.

He's got the Rothsier family!

And the reason why he added a stake in BP yesterday is also to leave room for today's negotiations.

After nearly half an hour of negotiations, the final result finally came out with difficulty!
