Chapter 496:

At first, Arhol did not believe Xiao Mubai's words, nor did he directly accept the business. Obviously, they don't believe that Xiao Mubai has a lot of money, even if he is a famous brand all over his body at the moment. These are not enough to support the demands he made.

Without seeing the expected benefits, as well as the strength of the collaborators, they will not move on to the next step of the process, which is in their interests.

Arhol remained silent, staring at Xiao Mubai, all the while examining him, as if considering what to say next.

Until, Xiao Mubai picked up the suitcase at hand, gently placed it on the desk, opened it, and then rotated the suitcase to face Arhol. "I think I can prove my strength now." He smiled and said word by word.

Arhol's pupils shrank, and his eyes stared at the suitcase without blinking, and he was fascinated by the neat rows of euros and purple euro 500 euro 2002 bills, which smelled like pure cotton fiber.

Just one glance, he thought it was real.

"That's 600,000 euros, nearly 10 kilograms of banknotes, do you think it's enough?" Xiao Mubai smiled and explained to the account manager with glowing eyes.

In fact, these euros were deposited in major banks in the capacity of Norn before he came. Although it is insured to keep all the funds in a Swiss bank, UBS is too cumbersome to withdraw money, and it is much easier in other commercial banks.

The first one he chose was the British-owned HSBC, which is also strong in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.

Xiao Mubai chose it as the opening bank, in fact, he values its British capital, that is, the background of Europe and the United States, compared with the banking industry in developing countries, which is not very developed, the European and American banking industry has a very mature development system, and more importantly, its degree of confidentiality is higher.

Don't think that Swiss banks are blowing up when you hear about banks, in fact, many banks are quite good, such as HSBC and Citigroup, and the sanctity of private property is also a creed that the banking industry abides by.

Not all banks have the same terrifying secrecy as the UBS Group, but in fact, many banks are not as shy as they are, at least for private banks, as are Standard Chartered, HSBC and Citigroup.

Of course, this does not mean that banks can be ignored for money laundering, most central banks have anti-money laundering offices and tax settlement centers, and private banks are under their supervision, among which the most famous Swiss banks, even if they have the tools of the Swiss bank secrecy law, must also comply with the anti-money laundering rules that have been issued by the FATF.

Xiao Mubai registered multiple bank accounts just to diversify risks, and HSBC is not the first, nor will it be the last.

In addition to HSBC, there are also BNP Paribas and Citibank.

In less than two hours, he had registered several bank accounts, of course, in the capacity of a Croatian man, List, and he also knew that as long as 10 million euros were remitted to the account, the bank's dealing center would naturally notice this large transaction.

But there is no way, as long as it does not alarm the authorities, the central bank and the anti-money laundering department of the tax police do not start the anti-money laundering procedures, these are not problems.

The most important thing is that the central banks in Europe and the United States are all private banks, and anti-money laundering investigations also take time, and the time difference is enough for Xiao Mubai to have room to maneuver.

It may sound a bit contradictory, but it is precisely because of these contradictions that Shen Jun chose Standard Chartered and HSBC in the UK, Paris and Lyon in France, Citigroup and Morgan in the United States, and the Western Pacific and Australia and New Zealand in Australia.

After doing this, Xiao Mubai took out a little money from his account, and together with the banknotes stored in the space, he arrived at Almonson. Otherwise, Almonson wouldn't have bothered you without these things.

Sure enough, if you don't shock this guy now, Xiao Mubai's heart is full of bad taste.

At this point, it is much better abroad than at home, and taking money abroad can kill a person. In China, pigs are fattened and then killed. Most of the rich ones are just white gloves. Even if you want to withdraw a large amount of cash, those uncles of the Bank of China will not let you withdraw it casually.

"If I'm satisfied with all of this, I think I have some gold to sell, and maybe I could consider having Almonson act as my agent." Xiao Mubai then dropped another bombshell.

"How much gold is there?" Arhol swallowed and asked dryly.

"How many do you want?" Xiao Mubai smiled back and asked rhetorically.

"10,000 ounces?" Arhol said tentatively.

Xiao Mubai was noncommittal.

"I guess, can we sign a contract?" Just when Arhol was thinking about how much gold there was, Xiao Mubai interrupted him, the smile on his face retracted, and asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, yes, sir." Arhol had fallen completely passive, and in the face of the huge gold, he had no power to resist at all.

After signing the contract and paying a deposit of 50,000 euros, Xiao Mubai said to Arhol again before he was ready to leave: "I hope it can be done within two weeks, and when the time comes, I will take the initiative to contact you." With that, he walked straight out.

By the time Arhol remembered something and hurriedly chased down, the man was already in the elevator.

As he was about to return to the office, Arhol heard someone calling him to go to the director's office, he packed his clothes, stood outside the door of the director's office, knocked lightly, and waited until he heard the sound of invitation to come in before entering. As soon as he entered, he saw Abraham, the supervisor, leaning on his desk and squinting at him, with Erlang's legs crossed.

"Sir!" In front of him, Arhol involuntarily lowered his head and sat upright.

Abraham squinted at his subordinate, unable to see any expression on his face, put down his feet on the table, turned the computer screen, and said to Arhol, "Look, what's going on?" ”

Arhol turned his head to look over, and there was a surveillance video on the computer screen, which was divided into several angles, and the scene in the reception room was clearly filmed, and the Chinese on the screen was obviously Xiao Mubai, who had just left.

Just at the first glance, Arhol felt that something was wrong, because there was no sound. He asked tentatively, "No sound?" ”

"Yes, there is no sound, the technician has already gone to check." Abraham nodded, stared at him again, and asked, "I don't know what you talked to him about, can you elaborate on that?" Although he was in a questioning tone, it seemed to be a matter of course, domineering.

Arhol organized the language and briefly explained the conversation in a few words.

Hearing this, Abraham frowned in thought, his right finger rubbing the beard on his chin. After a long time, he stared at Arhol again and asked word by word, "He said he had gold." How many? 10,000 ounces? More than 20 million euros? ”

Arhol was about to cry, and he hesitated for a moment before he replied, "I didn't, he was obviously suspicious of us." He said that after the first successful cooperation, the gold was handed over to us for sale. ”

Hearing this, Abraham's brow furrowed even tighter, and he stared at Arhol deadly, eager to throw this subordinate down from the 21st floor. Until Arhol said again, "He's got 600,000 euros, I'm sure it's not a lie." His face was slightly pale.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Abraham opened his mouth to signal to come in, and then a technician walked in and reported: "The listening equipment has been deliberately damaged, it cannot be repaired, and the equipment needs to be replaced." ”

Abraham's face became even more gloomy, and he casually dialed a phone call and ordered directly: "Give me an investigation of the person just now, the Croatian Lisit, and I want all his information." Three hours later it was on my desk. That's it. ”

With a snap, the phone hung up.
