The next day, at six in the evening, Xiao Yunhai and Kree Christie arrived at the White House.
The banquet started at seven in the evening. Xiao Yunhai already felt that he was early enough. He did not expect Apollo and the rest to be already there and chatting with others.
"Mr. Xiao, Ms. Kree Christie, welcome to my daughter Iris's coming-of-age banquet."
After seeing Xiao Yunhai, Lyle immediately went forward and hugged them.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Mr. President, my wife has something to do in Hua Xia and can't come. Please don't mind."
Lyle smiled and said, "I know Miss Zhao is filming a movie. Mr. Xiao, you and your wife really have a passion for movies. Is this your unique hobby? "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "You can say that."
Kree Christie said, "Mr. President Lyle, Miss Zhao did not come, and I came uninvited. Please don't mind."
Lyle smiled and said, "It's Ms. Kree Christie's honor to be able to come to my daughter's coming-of-age ceremony. After the banquet, we have important things to discuss. "
Xiao Yunhai understood and said, "Don't worry, we won't drink too much." “
Lyle laughed and left with his wine glass.
"Hey, Xiao, the last time we went to Beijing, you treated us all to a big meal. Now that we're in Washington, we must treat you to a good meal. " Apollo walked in front of Xiao Yunhai and said with a smile.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "How can one meal be enough? This is your and Wesley's home ground. We have to treat each of you. Isn't that right, Parson? " “
Parson nodded and said, "That's right." “
Apollo smiled and said, "That's easy."
After joking for a while, Xiao Yunhai looked at Wesley and said, "Why didn't Fu Luoda come?"
Hearing this name, Wesley's face froze and said, "He's very busy with work and has no time. I'm very free, so I came. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I think Mr. Elvis has decided to support you as the successor of the Bessie Family, right?"
Apollo chuckled and said, "Xiao, that's what I said just now. Mr. Elvis only brought Wesley to such an occasion. He has already expressed his attitude to the outside world. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Looks like we have to give Wesley a proper toast."
Hearing their words, Wesley was happy in his heart, but he did not show it on his face. He said, "Fu Luoda is very outstanding. I don't think I can definitely take the seat of the clan leader."
Although he said that, he still clinked glasses with Xiao Yunhai and the other two and drank the red wine in one gulp.
The four of them were young elites, and the forces behind them were astonishingly large. They chatted and laughed together, and no one dared to disturb them.
Their conversation only stopped when Elvis, Aaron, and Old Locke walked over.
"Mr. Xiao, how does it feel to be rich? Elvis asked with a smile on his face.
Obviously, he was deliberately mentioning Xiao Yunhai's sale of Yun Qing Network's shares to him.
Xiao Yunhai restrained his smile and said, "Mr. Bessie, I used to be a rich man, but because of some special circumstances, I had to give in to you. You're still mentioning it now, aren't you being too overbearing? Take me for example, I've never mentioned anything about Citibank and TCP Energy's shares. "
Elvis shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, this is my fault. I'll punish myself with a glass."
With that, he drank the red wine in his glass.
Old Locke pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Mr. Xiao, until now, I still don't understand. Why do you need so much money?"
Xiao Yunhai glanced at Elvis and said, "Mr. Bessie should know."
Elvis shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiao, actually, I don't know either."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "You dare say that you didn't put the bug in my office? Forget it, it's not a secret anyway. The reason why Barkel Bank can form a deep strategic partnership with the People's Bank of Hua Xia is because of a very secret condition. That is to lend them ten trillion US dollars within three years. The time limit is three years, and the interest is 10%. "
"Last year I gave them two trillion, this year it's three trillion, and next year it'll be five trillion. By 2014, the development of the western region will be over, and the people of Hua Xia will have to pay me twelve trillion within three years. I'm not doing it for the interest, but mainly because of its support. Barkel Bank's future will be limitless, far surpassing Citibank. "
Xiao Yunhai's words were pure nonsense, but they were very reasonable.
Everyone knew that Hua Xia was building the western region and lacked funds. If Xiao Yunhai had not spent such a high price, it would have been impossible to persuade the government to agree to such shocking conditions.
Of course, except for Elvis, everyone knew that this was just a lie made up by Xiao Yunhai.
Old Locke pondered for a while and said, "If it were me, I would accept it too. Mr Xiao, if that's the case, why did you go to Europe to buy so many industries? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Of course, I wouldn't miss it. At that time, I didn't care about three trillion US dollars at all. I could just sell an oil field. It's just that I didn't expect someone to interfere and make it so that I couldn't sell anything. And the time was up. I had no choice but to compromise. “
Old Locke said, "I see." “
Alan coughed and said awkwardly, "Mr Xiao, the business world is like a battlefield. Please don't mind." “
Xiao Yunhai said, "I understand. Although it makes me a little uncomfortable, I've completely let it go in my heart. If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have even mentioned it. By the way, please keep my relationship with the People's Bank of Hua Xia a secret. " “
The three of them nodded in unison.
Ayres's coming-of-age ceremony was very simple. It was just eating and drinking.
As Ayres's idol, Xiao Yunhai naturally danced with her and took a few photos.
After the banquet, Anderson and his son, Locke and his son, Xiao Yunhai, and Kree Christie gathered together.
"What? Five trillion US dollars? Mr Xiao, are you kidding? That wasn't what you said before. “
Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Apollo questioned him on the spot.
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's right. Previously, I said that I would give you all fifteen trillion US dollars at once, but I suddenly realized that once I did that, I wouldn't have any power to resist. Especially Barkel Bank, which used so much savings. If it was attacked, the result would be death. So, I want to give it to you in three batches. The last five trillion US dollars involves the savings of Barkel Bank, so it has to be given at the end. " “
Xiao Yunhai explained while staring at Apollo and Parkinson's eyes.
Both Locke Senior and Alan were old foxes, so they couldn't see anything.
Although Apollo and Parkinson were both extremely intelligent, they were still young and would definitely have flaws.
Sure enough, both of their expressions were very ugly, and their pupils constricted. Obviously, Xiao Yunhai's words had a great impact on them.
"Mr Xiao, if that's the case, then we'll have to redraft the contract. Because doing so will greatly reduce your risk. It's not appropriate to ask for another twenty trillion US dollars. " Alan said.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Nineteen trillion, not a single dollar less." “
Alan frowned and said, "18 trillion." Mr Xiao, you didn't do anything, and the funds were allocated in this way. Nineteen trillion is too much. " “
Xiao Yunhai said, "Who said I didn't do anything? When attacking the Bessie family, I'll fight the enemy with you. With so much money, if I don't know the progress, I won't be at ease. "
Locke Senior narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Mr Xiao, it seems that you don't trust us?" “
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't have cooperated with you. Hua Xia has a saying, 'Caution is the parent of safety.' With so much money, you can't be too careful. I hope everyone can understand. " “
Kree Stephen said, "Everyone, actually, what we're doing won't affect anyone at all. It's just that the money will arrive later. We have a total of sixty trillion US dollars. Maybe we won't even need to use Barkel Bank's savings. " “
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's great." “
Apollo said indignantly, "Mr Xiao, what you're doing is actually equivalent to increasing our risk." “
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's why I'm willing to use this one trillion US dollars to buy your risk. I've already redrafted the contract, and the guaranteed shares have been divided into three parts. As long as you sign it, five trillion US dollars will quickly be transferred to Barkel Bank. " “
Locke Senior and Alan looked at each other and nodded at the same time in agreement.
After signing the contract, Xiao Yunhai and Kree Stephen said goodbye and left.
