Chapter 1188: An Accident on the Banks of the Han River

……

Originally, Liu Dong thought that even if the funds in Cui Dongchen's hands were not five or six billion US dollars, but more than 40 billion US dollars, there must be one. But now it seems that the situation is not what I expected. Moreover, Liu Dong's observation of words and appearances, as well as the investigation and evidence collection afterwards, all proved that Cui Dongchen was not lying.

This is not very good for Liu Dong.

Although $22 billion is still an unimaginable amount of money, this huge amount of money is not enough for Liu Dong to survive the next crisis.

Moreover, he himself knows how big the bubble in the stock price of Standard Chartered Bank is. If he is attacked by someone with a heart again, if Liu Dong wants to stabilize the stock price of Standard Chartered and prevent the sharp decline from endangering the credibility of Standard Chartered Bank, the funds needed will be massive.

If there is 40 billion US dollars, Liu Dong is not worried about anyone playing tricks with him. But now he has only a little more than half of what he originally expected, so he has no bottom in his heart!

What's more, there is now another Abi National Bank.

Although reason told Liu Dong that the capital of Standard Chartered Bank should not be planned for such a huge acquisition of as much as 9 billion pounds when the capital of Standard Chartered Bank is about to approach the red line of the Basel Accord. But he knows better how rare an opportunity to get involved in Britain's financial world is.

Of the world's three major financial centers, Japan's Liu Dong has not yet figured out how to intervene in it. In the United States, Liu Dong has already made a good layout, and although Standard Chartered is not as good as Citigroup and ******** in the United States, it is also one of the top ten banks. Only in the United Kingdom, even if Standard Chartered is acquired, the main branches of Standard Chartered are in the Far East, and there are no more than 50 branches in the United Kingdom. This has always been a pity for Liu Dong.

Now, if the merger of Abi National Bank is successful. Standard Chartered would then be able to gain a foothold in London, the world's second-largest financial centre.

Moreover, he can also get a super bank that is enough to rank among the top in the world.

And the existence of such a bank brings him economic rights is unimaginable. As Sally Kraucek told him, if he succeeds, Liu Dong will truly become a real guest of government heads.

Even if he has little place in Chinese politics, his influence in the economic world will be comparable to that of ****** leaders. This is the power that Liu Dong has always craved!

When the time comes. He really has the strength to stand at the top of the pyramid alone, and he no longer needs to rely on anyone.

Of course, before that, he had to go through a series of challenges.

Thinking of the challenge, Liu Dong, who had just been somewhat satisfied with the acquisition of Daewoo Group, was full of motivation to move forward again.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a way to raise some more money!"

Touching his chin, Liu Dong said thoughtfully.

Without stealing, robbing, or arousing serious social concern, they want to raise tens of billions of dollars. Even for Liu Dong, who has the space of relics and mustard seeds, it is really not a simple matter.

No, it's very difficult to do.

So, think about it. In the end, the easiest way to achieve one's goals, and the only way Liu Dong could think of, is still a treasure.

But although there are many treasures in this world, especially the shipwreck treasures in the ocean, there are thousands. But the vast majority could not give him a sufficient amount of money.

And even if you get that kind of treasure worth billions of dollars, the more valuable of them are the cultural relics. And not the gold that Liu Dong needs.

"Gold, enough gold!"

Liu Dong muttered and repeated in his mouth, and the treasures about gold that he remembered in his mind flashed in his mind one by one. Finally, after eliminating those hidden treasures that are not numerous, or no trace at all, such as the Nazi treasure. Liu Dong finally locked on a target.

"Maybe there's something I need there!"

Looking at the huge land further north of China, Liu Dong said expectantly.

With a goal, Liu Dong also relaxed a little.

Got up from the couch, stretched out, and looked at the bright sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window. The beautiful scenery and the Han River, which meanders like a jade belt, reminded Liu Dong that he had been in South Korea for more than three months, and he hadn't visited the city until now.

"I'm leaving soon, let's have a few days here before we leave!"

Thinking of this, Liu Dong no longer hesitated, turned around and walked out the door.

"Don't follow me, stay at home!"

"Yes, Master!"

'Sagittarius' De Jong's foot was retracted. On this planet, the least thing De Jong worries about is Liu Dong's safety. Because, he had never seen anyone whose combat power could surpass that of this mysterious sect master.

……

The Han River is a major river on the Korean Peninsula and the fourth longest river on the Korean Peninsula, after the Yalu River, the Tumen River and the Nakdong River. The Han River is made up of the Namhan River, which originates in Daedeoksan Mountain, and the North Hangang River, which originates in Mount Kumgang in North Korea.

The two main rivers, the Namhan River and the North Han River, converge in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea, and at this time it is called the Han River. The Han River then flows through Seoul and finally flows into the Hwasa Bay of the Yellow River. The mouth of the Han River has extensive beaches where you can see the coastal North and South Korea Demilitarized Zone, which divides the border between North and South Korea.

Since the 1960s, South Korea along the Han River has developed an export-oriented export-oriented economy, and after just over 20 years, it has become one of the four Asian tigers, known as the 'Han River Miracle'.

Therefore, when Liu Dong came out of his villa on the bank of the Han River and traveled aimlessly along the highway along the river, in addition to the surging river, there were towering steel jungles everywhere on both sides of the river.

Here, it seems to condense the essence of the entire Korean industry, and also allows Liu Dong to intuitively see the appearance of the Korean economy with his own eyes.

"Huh!"

Just when Liu Dong walked into a beautiful Linjiang Park, admired the surrounding scenery in all directions, and took a break by the way.

Suddenly, I saw a young woman wearing a white slim suspender shirt, pink knee-length shorts, **** jade feet, and high hair on a high platform by the river.

Looking at the expression and movements on her face, Liu Dong was stunned and said, "This can't be jumping into the river, right?"

Liu Dong never imagined that he had just decided to go out for a walk today, and he would encounter such a thrilling thing.

"Looks like God asked me to save you. Anyway, it's a pity that such a beautiful girl died!"

Thinking so in his mind, Liu Dong's feet are not slow, the distance of more than fifty meters, a few ups and downs, in less than a second, he came to the side of this high platform that should be regarded as a viewing platform.

However, this tall and good-looking girl is obviously faster than Liu Dong imagined. Looking at the girl who had already jumped up, Liu Dong scolded in his heart, "Don't they all say that death is terrible?

"Hey, girl, don't think about it! The world is still very beautiful! You're still young!"

Liu Dong, who was in broken thoughts, grabbed the girl's delicate and smooth ankle like white jade after a jump.

But before Liu Dong could pull her up, he heard the girl scream in her ears, "Ah, let go of me, you rascal!"

"Me, rascal?"

This crisp voice made Liu Dong stunned in his heart, but just as he was stunned, the whole person had already followed the girl's 'poof', crossed a parabola that was not very beautiful, and fell into the Han River.

At this time, it was already June, and it was morning, and the sun was shining, so the river was not cold. And with Liu Dong's water nature and ability, the storms at sea can't help him, let alone the small Han River.

So after falling, Liu Dong quickly adjusted. Then, he swam quickly over and pulled the girl who had fallen into the river to the surface.

"Ahem......!"

The girl coughed vigorously a few times, spit out the water in her mouth, wiped her face, and then saw Liu Dong beside her, her pretty face changed, and she raised her palm and fanned it directly towards Liu Dong's face.

However, with Liu Dong's reflexes, there are few people in this world who want to slap him and succeed.

"Hey, you're unreasonable, I'm kind enough to save you, if you don't express your gratitude, forget it, why are you still beating people?" After grabbing the girl's arm, Liu Dong said angrily.

"Save people? If you hadn't suddenly grabbed my ankle just now, making me lose my balance when I jumped, how could I be so embarrassed! Just now, I was almost killed by you!" The girl puffed out her mouth, stared at Liu Dong with wide apricot eyes, and scolded Liu Dong indignantly.

Hearing this, it looks like the girl will indeed be watery, and it's not bad. Liu Dong also knew that he had misunderstood. But even so, you're kind-hearted, even if you don't get thanks, you won't scold others and do it, right?

"It's really Fleur, femme fatale!"

Thinking of this, Liu Dong suddenly had the idea of leaving, and he really didn't have a good impression of the beautiful girl.

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, don't play diving in this kind of no-man's place in the future!"

After speaking coldly, Liu Dong turned around and swam towards the shore.

"Hey, what do you mean! What does it matter to you where I swim! Hey, wait, I'm not done yet!"

After watching Liu Dong swim quickly to the shore, and then walk down the stairs towards the shore, the girl behind her shouted and chased after him at the same time.

However, Liu Dong, who had no interest in her at the moment, turned a deaf ear to the voice coming from behind him.

But when he went ashore and looked at himself as a chicken in the soup, Liu Dong smiled bitterly in his heart: "Where are you going to change your clothes?"

Although there are many trees in this park, there is no hidden space, and there are no toilets or anything like that around, so I have the heart to take out a set of clothes from the mustard seed space and change them for myself, but I am afraid that it will be too shocking in front of everyone.
