Chapter 1059: Fifty Trillion Dollar Joke
About the Rothschilds.
Han Xuan remembers hearing the name for the first time because of the description in the book "Currency Wars" that the Rothschilds are sitting on 5 trillion US dollars and are secretly controlling the Federal Reserve to influence the world economy.
Han Xuan, who was stunned at the time, took the book and asked the teacher in the university for verification, but the teacher just glanced at the name of the book, snatched the book and threw it into the trash.
Saying that's where it really ends, and not putting it on a bookshelf is misleading.
Now that I think about it, even if the author of that book had a little brain, he would not have written such ridiculous data, and the author is still writing as an economist, I am afraid that he is trying to exaggerate the reputation and cheat money.
Han Xuan's personal assets are less than 100 billion US dollars now, and he is already worried all day long, hiding assets everywhere, and he can't imagine that a family will have 50 trillion US dollars.
What's more, he now has a clear understanding of how the Fed works, and he can just listen to what is written in the book as a joke......
In real society, the Rothschilds really exist.
In the mid-19th century, it was even the richest family in the world, and it continued to decline until the First World War.
Emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and the Rothschilds are still rich, at least more than the vast majority of people.
According to the annual report of Paris-Orléans, the parent company of the Rothschild Group, Han Xuan guessed that the family's total assets should now be around $4.5 billion.
Counting the works of art and fixed assets accumulated over the past 200 years, it is about 10 billion US dollars at most, and it is the wealth of an entire family, and it does not belong to any one person in the family.
In other words, only Han Xuan's personal wealth is currently richer than the Rothschilds.
When he saw Edward Rothschild, he just smiled, stretched out his hand to say hello, "Hello, Mr. Rothschild."
Guy and Adolf, two of your elders, have always been my idols, and they have a knack for how to run a household.
It's easy to make a fortune, but it's difficult to keep the family glorious for a hundred years......"
"Guy Rothschild is my father.
My mother was Baroness Mary-Helen, who died just last year and I inherited her baronial title.
Hello, Han.
I'm very happy to see you tonight.
Actually, I think the elders of your family are smarter, and they can even raise an excellent heir like you, and my father even said that he wanted to learn from Mr. Han and Mr. Quark......"
Edward Rothschild spoke of his knighthood with a hint of pride.
But he was deliberately hidden and didn't show it in front of Han Xuan, in fact, he really didn't have anything to be proud of except for his background.
Born in a prominent family like him, it is strange that the members are not arrogant, Han Xuan does not hate it, but because of the compliment in the back, his expression is beautiful.
I heard that the Rothschilds had a strange rule that only close relatives were allowed to marry among family members.
If anyone dares to violate this rule, they will be kicked out of the list of family members, and they will not even get the right to inherit, which is similar to the rules of the Dubai royal family, and even more harsh.
Fortunately, there is this rule, otherwise those properties would have been divided by future generations, and it would not have been possible to form the scale it is now.
I thought about how they could avoid the intellectual disability or deformity of their offspring caused by inbreeding, because the Rothschild family members who appeared in public were all healthy.
Han Xuan stretched out his hand at this moment and said, "I think my grandfather should be happy to see him."
Please come in with me, this is my father's restaurant, there are no other guests tonight, the environment is quiet, I hope you like it......"
He had already made an appointment with Mr. Greenspan for today's meeting, so he deliberately reserved time for tonight, and the elegantly decorated and exquisite dining room was full of empty tables.
Randomly selected a table and sat down, Greenspan found that Han Xuan attached so much importance to himself, he was actually very happy, and said in his mouth: "You shouldn't delay your father's restaurant business, you can eat anywhere."
When this restaurant first opened, my wife brought me to eat it once, and it tasted very, very good, and it was worth the high price.
I've heard that most of the ingredients come from the mysterious snow-capped mountain pastures, right? ”
"Well, vegetables, fruits, beef and mutton are all there, and the seafood comes from my Gambo Sea Ranch, and the ingredients are fresh and healthy......
Open the menu, order what you want to eat, and then return the menu to the waiter.
They chatted with each other about the short things in their parents, and occasionally analyzed the fluctuations in the development of the world economy in recent years, and there were always endless topics to talk about, and the atmosphere was not bad.
Earlier, Chairman Alan Greenspan said that he wanted to talk about economic globalization, and Han Xuan made special preparations for this, for fear that saying something that should not be said would affect the US Government's decision-making and then change the development of the world in the future.
But tonight, the old man opposite him never mentioned the matter, but instead pulled the topic to the European Union.
On January 1, 1994, Europe established the European Monetary Authority, and the European Central Bank will be established in January next year, and the euro will be promoted around 1999.
When Han Xuan heard Edward Rothschild express his concern about the European Union and express his intention to come to the United States for development.
He finally understood what the purpose of this guy's coming over today was - he wanted to cooperate with himself!
Part of the reason for the decline of the Rothschilds was that they did not expect the United States to develop so rapidly.
Before the nineteenth century, the economic center of the world was still Britain and Europe, and then the United States replaced Britain, and with the influence of two wars, it was slowly replaced by Morgan, Citigroup, DuPont, Rockefeller and other power groups.
Now the main business of the Rothschilds is banks, and once the European Union is established and the currency is issued uniformly, these banks will inevitably suffer.
Whether the results of the European reforms will be good or bad in the end, no one knows, so this family will set its sights on the side of the United States, preparing to come to the United States to develop, and put their eggs in different baskets.
Finding a strong partner would reduce the time and effort spent by the Rothschilds, and Han Xuan's East West Bank was on their watchlist.
The appetizer is caviar, a tiny plate.
Han Xuancai put the spoon into his mouth and heard Edward say, "Some time ago, I met a very interesting young man.
His name is John Paulson, and he said you were a shareholder in his Paulson hedge fund? ”
