After hearing what Half-the-Harbor
Langdon said, Kayden’s first reaction was
to deem it impossible.
He said, “Dad, aside from the fact that the
property rights in the mainland are the
result of so many years of our hard work,
those are high-quality assets that can rise
sharply in the future. Jasper will not agree
because of his relationship with us.
“It is possible that he, more than anyone
else, wants us to go bankrupt now the
most. Can we even approach him?”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon seemed to
expect Kayden to think that way. He said,
“He will agree.
“Jasper’s roots are in the mainland. Even
though his relationship with the United
States and his actions in the United States
financial market has greatly improved his
status in the mainland, everything in this
world has two sides.
“He was favored by the mainland, but the
price of this was the permanent hostility o
f the United States and the vigilance of
other Western countries toward him. “So his base can only be in the country. For him, these assets are
precisely the best nutrients that can help him spend countless hours deploying to various cities on the
mainland.
“As for the other problem you mentioned,
it’s not even a problem.
“Do you not think that Jasper is like me?”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon’s words stunned Kayden such that he could hardly react in time.
“Jasper is a businessman through and through. When he does anything, he considers the advantages
and then weighs it against the disadvantages. When the benefits are greater than the costs, he will do
it. As for other personal feelings, it is not the most important thing to him.”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon leaned back on the chair and said in a very complicated tone, “Actually, I
often think that if you possessed half of what Jasper had, we would not be where we are today.
“Go. Talk to him.”
Kayden gritted his teeth and said, “Dad,
are we really going to beg him?”
“Beg?”
Half-the-Harbor Langdon snorted coldly.
He said, “If it works to beg him, even I
could do it, but what’s the use of just
begging him? At the end of the day, it’s
just an exchange of benefits. Are you
unable to let go of your pride, or do you
have other concerns?”
Kayden snapped, “Dad, I think the crux of
the problem is that even if Jasper agreed t
o release Layman’s position and Layman i
s temporarily released from the subprime
market crisis, those damn banks provided
junk credit loans to countless people in
the United States. Once they go bankrupt,
we will be pulled back into this.”
“We have to solve our problems step by
step, so you can’t rush this. Now what lies
ahead is that if the crisis of the subprime
market is not resolved, then there will be n
o future for us at all.”
Facing Kayden, who was looking for all
kinds of excuses, Half-the-Harbor
Langdon finally could not hold back the Langdon finally ot hold back the
anger in his heart. He, who had always been gentle and cultivated, rarely lost his temper.
“We acquired Layman Investment Bank for less than half a month before Layman went bankrupt. Do
you want us to become the laughing stock of the world? Or do you want me to talk to Jasper in
person?”
Kayden opened his mouth as he looked at his furious father, but eventually, he did not say anything.
After that, he sighed dejectedly and replied, “Okay, I’ll go talk t o him.”
At this moment, in Nauritus City in Somerland.
Jasper was holding a cup of strong tea. Then, he looked disapprovingly at Jake’s fragrant coffee.
“Mr. Laine, is the smell too strong? I can move away,” Jake offered, feeling slightly embarrassed.
“Never mind, just stay.”
After shaking his head, Jasper looked at
the market on the screen. He chuckled and
said, “Not bad. The goal of our strategy
has almost been achieved.”
“Did the people from the United States
give up on the subprime market
completely? They didn’t fight back at all,”
Jake asked, feeling pretty pleased.
The task went smoothly, and everything
proceeded in an orderly manner. Hence,
Jake naturally felt relaxed.
“You can say that. We could only target
the subprime market. If it were the stock
market or other financial markets, it
might not have been so easy.”
Jasper sighed.
At the end of the day, it was still a matter o
f background. The reason why he could do
anything he wanted in the subprime
market was that the United States
government acquiesced to use his hand to
clean up the malignant tumor in their
economy.
However, if you followed Wall Street
capital’s operations in the domestic market, you would inevitably face a hard battle.
This was the difference in economic background between the two countries.
Jasper never thought Somerland was weaker than any country in the world. He even thought, with the
bias of a bit of nationalism, that Somerland was the greatest nation and country in the world. However,
he still had to acknowledge reality.
This was also the fundamental reason why people in Somerland had gritted their teeth and stubbornly
strived hard for development.
However, Jasper was not a person who was willing to become others’ tools. He was already plotting a
huge plan in his mind, and once it was successful, he would reap the top ten technology giants i n the
United States in 20 year’s time. These companies would then control the future, the future of the whole
world!
“There’s movement.”
Jake suddenly gasped, interrupting
Jasper’s thoughts.
Then, they saw a large amount of funds
begin to uncharacteristically enter the
subprime market. After this, they
deliberately liquidated more than a dozen
credit products in a targeted manner.
“Bring me the information on these credit
products.”
By the time he gave his order, Jake was
already prepared with what he needed.
After reading the information, the two
raised their heads and said in unison, ”
Layman!”
Yes, the largest customers of these
multiple credit products all pointed to one
company, Layman Investment Bank.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a video
call request was sent to the Jasper
computer.
Jasper was amused when he saw the
person’s name.
“You should leave first,” Jasper said.
Jake nodded. As he was about to leave, he
asked, “So, what are we going to do with the changes in the subprime market?”
“Don’t worry, he’s just sending us a signal. The focus is still on this coming conversation,” Jasper said.
After Jake left, Jasper sat down and
answered the video call.
After the computer screen flickered for a while, Kayden’s handsome face appeared.
Jasper was the first to speak. He said with a grin, “Mr. Langdon is glowing with health and vigor. The
bruises of the injuries you suffered some time ago are all gone. Presumably, medical treatment offered
in the United States is much better than that in Somerland. I can’t see the embarrassment you suffered
when you were beaten at that time.”
This opening line enraged Kayden so much that he almost passed away on the spot.
