Chapter 0225: Family Meeting and Ten Elders
"In desperation, our family carried out a personnel change of Rothschild Bank and invited you to turn the tide, change the current passive situation, and regain absolute control of the international gold market!"
"I'll go, there is such a thing!" After listening to Carl's explanation, Qiao Tianyu was also shocked.
First, Rothschild Bank has the backing of the Rothschild family, the world's financial rulers, how dare Credit Suisse First Boston Bank argue with the Rothschilds?
Second, Rothschild Bank controls almost all the sources of gold, which completely controls the lifeblood of other gold merchants, where does Credit Suisse First Boston Bank and Rothschild Bank come from?
"Could it be that a new big gold mine has been discovered by which country has been mastered by them, and they have the confidence?" Qiao Tianyu asked.
"Probably not. Karl shook his head and said, "Generally speaking, the news of new big gold discoveries can't be covered, and we will definitely know that there have been no new big gold discoveries in the world in recent years." ”
"Moreover, even if a new gold mine is discovered, the world's gold mining capacity is only about 2,000 tons a year, which is really minimal, and it is not worth mentioning in front of our Rothschild Bank, let alone arguing with us!"
"Could it be that Credit Suisse First Boston Bank has been preparing for this 'rebellion' for many years and has accumulated a lot of gold reserves to prepare?" Qiao Tianyu asked again.
"That's what we thought at the beginning, and that's the most plausible explanation at the moment. Carl went on to explain.
"So we thought, since you Credit Suisse First Boston Bank dare to play, we will accompany you to the end, anyway, our gold reserves and supplies are enough, see who is strong first. ”
"However, after a month, the price of gold plummeted by 30%, and our family's gold reserves quickly decreased by 20,000 tons, but strangely, Credit Suisse First Boston Bank was not affected at all and has been operating normally!"
"This is even more strange, where did Credit Suisse First Boston get so much gold?" Qiao Tianyu was even more puzzled.
"Yes, that's the biggest problem we're bothering us right now, and it's the key to solving the current dilemma!" Karl explained earnestly.
"As long as we can find all the sources of gold from Credit Suisse First Boston, our Rothschilds can break through each one in a targeted manner, give Credit Suisse a trick to draw salaries, and finally take them down!"
"Oh, I almost forgot. Speaking of this, Carl slapped his head, quickly went to the briefcase, took out a small red notebook from it, and handed it to Qiao Tianyu.
"Mr. Joe, this is the entry exemption issued by the British Foreign Office that David asked me to bring you. Carl explained.
"David let me tell you that finding the entire source of gold at Credit Suisse First Boston is the most important thing to solve the current predicament, and he has carte blanche on this matter!"
"David also said that the bell must be tied to the bell, and if you want to find all the sources of gold from Credit Suisse First Boston, you will definitely not be able to avoid dealing with the bank, so he invited you to participate in the 'Golden House' bargaining meeting, which is the main position of our confrontation with Credit Suisse First Boston!"
"Entry Exemption Certificate?" Qiao Tianyu took the small book with some surprise, and there was such a thing?
It is said that the small red book is about the size of a normal passport, and the front is printed with two sets of three golden lion shield-style British royal insignia, which is the common British national emblem.
When the little red book was opened, the first page was printed with "Tia."
yu Wa
g" and a blank column for "Companions", while at the bottom it is stated that the booklet is valid until August 1, 2044.
In other words, with this small red book, in the next 50 years, Qiao Tianyu can freely bring anyone in and out of the UK for transit, without any restrictions.
From now on, Britain will be a smooth road for Qiao Tianyu.
"David?" While being happy to receive this treasure, Qiao Tianyu looked at Carl with some puzzlement, saying what the hell is this David, it seems that it is the first time he has heard that name.
"Oh, forgot to introduce. Karl hastened to explain.
"David is one of the top ten veterans of our Rothschild family meeting, and a few days ago the family meeting decided that David would be in charge of Rothschild Bank, so he is fully responsible for international gold affairs, of course, it is also his decision to invite you out of the mountain!"
"Rothschild Family Meeting?Top Ten Elders?" Hearing too many new terms today, Qiao Tianyu was a little overwhelmed.
"Uh......" Seeing that Qiao Tianyu was still confused, Carl hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, maybe you don't know much about our family's affairs, let me explain it to you." ”
"As we all know, starting with our ancestor Mayer Rothschild, after more than 200 years of development, our family has a large population and a large scale of assets. ”
And the family motto set by the ancestor Meyer requires that the descendants of Rothschild must huddle together to keep warm, serve the family industry, and must not be divided. ”
"But with the growing size of the family and the size of the assets, in order to manage the family affairs, we in the Rothschild family have established the family council, which is the highest decision-making body for family affairs, responsible for managing and adjudicating all the affairs of the family. ”
"The family meeting is composed of the ten most respected clansmen, commonly known as the 'Ten Elders', which is often referred to as the core of the Rothschild family. ”
"In the family meeting, the 'ten elders' all have a strict division of labor, each responsible for different affairs, among which the Rothschild Bank was originally in charge of the patriarch William. ”
However, due to the recent impact on the gold business, one of the two major businesses of Rothschild Bank, the family meeting was furious and decided to transfer all the business of Rothschild Bank to Davy, who became the chairman of the bank's board of directors. ”
Underneath David was Jacob, vice chairman and president of Rothschild Bank, who was in charge of the day-to-day running of the bank. ”
"Of course, asking you to go out of the mountain is the first decision Davy made after taking office!"
"Oh, I see. Qiao Tianyu nodded, and had a general understanding of the operation of the Rothschild family, "What about the branches of your family in various countries?"
"Because the Rothschild family is too large, there are so many big and small things, if only one family meeting and ten elders can govern a huge family of tens of thousands of people, it is definitely unrealistic. ”
