Chapter 372: 50 Million Swiss Francs
the next day.
When Li Dong arrived at the company in the morning, his eyes were red.
Sitting in the office for a while, Li Dong kept yawning. When Liu Qi sent the documents to the door, she couldn't help saying: "Mr. Li, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Li Dong yawned and said, "I slept a bit late, and I was woken up by some birds in the morning."
It stands to reason that he lives on the 20th floor, and the birds can't reach him, but he forgot to close the window last night, and two sparrows flew from nowhere in the morning, and Li Dong had a headache after chirping.
Originally, he planned to sleep in for a while, but Li Dong had to get up early.
Liu Qi said with concern: "Why don't you go to the lounge to rest for a while, you should have nothing to do today."
Li Dong waved his hand and said: "Forget it, just make me a cup of strong tea, I have to go out later."
After hearing the words, Liu Qi didn't persuade him anymore, and went out to help Li Dong make a cup of strong tea and brought it in.
Li Dong took a sip and felt better, then asked Liu Qi, "Is there anyone in our company who knows German?"
"German?"
"right!"
Although Li Dong mainly read the first document when he went back last night, he also briefly checked the second document online.
At this time, Baidu had not yet launched a translation system. Li Dong searched and searched and only found that the text on the document was in German, and he did not find much else.
Of course, he didn't bother to bother with that. It was too troublesome to type out each word, let alone a document with so many words.
Liu Qi thought for a while, then shook her head slightly and said, "I don't seem to have heard of anyone who can speak German, but there are some who can speak English and Japanese. How about I go out and ask?"
"Forget it." Li Dong shook his head and said, "Don't Yu Bo and his team have an interpreter? You are also idle now. You can call her and ask her if she is busy. If she is fine, ask her to translate for me. documents, the remuneration will be calculated separately."
"OK!"
Liu Qi also thought of the young translator girl. When Yu Bo introduced her last time, she seemed to have said that she knew German.
When Liu Qi went out,
Li Dong took out the second document from the drawer.
After staring at the document for a while, Li Dong touched his chin, the document was written in German, what the hell is this?
Of the two boxes, one hides official secrets, which are related to the lives of the Chen family father and son.
This one was put in another box by itself, obviously very important, but I don't know what it is.
Li Dong had some guesses in his mind, but he couldn't understand the document, so there was no need to guess. It's better to wait for the translator to come.
...
The translator of Yu Bo's team was named Zheng Rao, and the girl was not very old, at most twenty-four or five years old.
Zheng Rao came very quickly, Li Dong is now their big sponsor, and it is not difficult to translate a document, Zheng Rao naturally will not shirk.
As soon as Zheng Rao entered the office, Li Dong stood up to greet him and said, "Sorry for disturbing Translator Zheng."
Zheng Rao burst out laughing, seeing Li Dong's puzzled face, Zheng Rao quickly said: "President Li, you should call me Zheng Rao, and call me Translator Zheng, I sound weird."
Li Dong didn't understand what was so strange, but since people said so, Li Dong went along with it and said, "Then I'll call you Zheng Rao."
After a few polite words with Zheng Rao, Li Dong took out a piece of paper from the drawer and handed it to Zheng Rao, "Zheng Rao, help me see, what is written on it?"
Zheng Rao took the paper and glanced at it, then couldn't help trembling twice, not because he was frightened, but because he was holding back his laughter.
The German on the paper was just copied by Li Dong himself. Although Li Dong felt that this document should not involve any secrets, he still did not hand over the document directly to Zheng Rao under the principle of being careful and making no serious mistakes. I copied a few sentences from the document myself.
However, German and English are somewhat different. When Li Dong wrote it for the first time, he naturally wrote it a bit awkwardly, and the copying on paper was even more crooked.
Zheng Rao is a language expert and is very familiar with German. He naturally wanted to laugh when he saw Li Dong's writing that was not as good as that of elementary school students.
Smiling, after reading for a while, Zheng Rao still managed to make out what Li Dong wrote. Glancing at Li Dong, Zheng Rao said, "Mr. Li, this is actually not a sentence, but a word. Actually German and English are somewhat similar, and there are many common features, you see, the last word you write is actually English.”
"Yeah?"
Li Dong looked down, maybe because of his preconceived ideas, he thought he didn't know German before, and he didn't care.
But looking at it now, it's really English.
Li Dong read it in a low voice, and then said: "? National Bank?"
"Yes, the full name of this word is the Swiss National Bank."
"Swiss National Bank..." Li Dong touched his nose lightly, it seems that he guessed it right, it really has something to do with money.
Since the Chen family and his son had prepared secret documents to save their lives, they naturally would not have prepared money for their escape.
Chen Rui and the others are being followed now, and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection must have checked their financial situation before. Chen Jikuan was able to retire safely, probably because he was not caught with too much money.
But through the information last night, Li Dong knew that Chen Jikuan had a lot of money.
That being the case, where did the money he get go?
Now it seems that there is an explanation, the money was stored in Switzerland, but someone investigated the Chen family and his son at that time, and the Chen family and his son did not dare to take it out for a while.
At that time, they didn't have time to run away, and it might be more troublesome to take it out, so it was cheaper for Li Dong in the end.
Thinking of this, Li Dong couldn't help being overjoyed, took out the original document from the drawer and handed it to Zheng Rao, "Help me see, is this a deposit certificate from a Swiss bank?"
Since it is related to money, it is not a secret, and Li Dong is not afraid of being seen by Zheng Rao.
Zheng Rao was speechless, and after looking at it for a while, he said to Li Dong: "Mr. Li, this is not a certificate of deposit, and the Swiss National Bank does not accept private deposits. Its role is similar to that of the People's Bank of my country..."
Hearing this, Li Dong suddenly said depressed: "If you don't save money, then what is this?"
He is really speechless now, what the hell is Chen Rui doing? Since it's not money, why hide it seriously?
Zheng Rao didn't rush to answer, but read the document carefully.
When he saw the end, Zheng Rao's eyes became a little weird, he stared at Li Dong and said, "President Li, don't you know what this is?"
Li Dong said calmly: "I don't know, this is something that one of my partners mortgaged to me. He said it was very valuable. I don't know much about it, so I want to ask someone to take a look..."
Before he finished speaking, Zheng Rao laughed and said, "Mr. Li, don't tell the rest of the story, your level of making up stories is not very good."
Li Dongqian said with a smile: "Why do you say that?"
Zheng Rao raised the paper in his hand with a half-smile, and smiled at Li Dong: "Mr. Li, do you know what this is? This is not a piece of paper, but a mountain of gold. Are you sure your partner will put this Mortgage to you? Unless he has too much money to spend, no one would be so stupid."
Li Dong coughed lightly and said, "You don't understand, it's a partner, but in fact the other party is no different from my brother, we don't care about a little money."
Zheng Rao did not continue to debunk Li Dong, and handed the document to Li Dong solemnly, and then said: "Mr. Li, please keep this and don't lose it. If you encounter such a thing next time, I advise you It's better to find a few more translators to read together, or you won't even know what's going on if you've been deceived."
Li Dong nodded and said with a smile: "I trust you guys, otherwise I wouldn't show it to outsiders casually."
Zheng Rao laughed and said after a while: "President Li, this is actually a receipt."
"Receipt?"
"Yes, the receipt issued by the Swiss National Bank, the anonymous one, you should have heard of it."
"A bearer account?"
Zheng Rao said speechlessly: "Of course not, this is a receipt for a foreign bond in Swiss francs. Mr. Li does not know that although Switzerland allows bonds to be transferred in the resale market, until now Switzerland has not allowed the entity of foreign bonds in Swiss francs. The bills flowed out of the country. According to the regulations, the physical bills of the bonds must be deposited in the Swiss National Bank for safekeeping, and this document is the receipt for depositing the bonds.”
When Zheng Rao said this, Li Dong immediately understood.
The thing in my hand is actually a Swiss franc foreign bond, but the bond is not allowed to be taken out of the country, so it was deposited in the Swiss National Bank, and the other party gave me a receipt.
Thinking of this, Li Dong asked again: "You said it was anonymous, so that means that I can withdraw money with this receipt now?"
"Instead of withdrawing money, Mr. Li can only get bonds. Moreover, this bond was bought in 2001 and will not mature until 2016. If Mr. Li wants to turn it into money, he has to wait."
"16 years..."
Li Dong was completely speechless. Seeing this, Zheng Rao smiled again: "Of course, Mr. Li, there is no need to worry. Swiss franc foreign bonds can be circulated in the market. If Mr. Li needs them, they can be exchanged for money at any time. The Swiss government This kind of behavior is encouraged, and even the tax is exempted.”
"That's good."
Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief, but after thinking about it, Li Dong felt that he seemed to have forgotten one thing.
After a while, Li Dong said dryly: "Well, I haven't asked yet, how much is this bond?"
Zheng Rao finally couldn't help laughing, she found Li Dong too funny.
It’s okay to make up the previous story poorly, but in the end, I don’t even know how much it is, so I’m ashamed to say that my friend mortgaged it to him.
Which friend would be so generous and give so much money almost directly to Li Dong?
In fact, Zheng Rao was also curious, where did Li Dong get this thing, but she didn't ask, because some things are shallow and deep, and it's not good to ask.
When Li Dong asked about the money, Zheng Rao took a deep breath and said, "Fifty million!"
"Fifty million..." Li Dong murmured, fifty million is not too little, but it is not too much.
According to what he saw last night, Chen Jikuan has made far more than this amount over the years, but he doesn't know where to put the other money.
But after all, it was picked up for nothing, and Li Dong was very satisfied with fifty million yuan. Li Dong was happy with the money picked up for nothing, not to mention fifty million yuan, even fifty thousand yuan.
Of course, if it was really 50,000 yuan, Li Dong wouldn't bother to get it. After all, it's not worthwhile to make a special trip for 50,000 yuan abroad.
Seeing Li Dong muttering non-stop, Zheng Rao couldn't help reminding: "Mr. Li, 50 million is Swiss francs, not RMB!"
"Swiss francs!"
Li Dong's eyes moved, and he quickly asked: "Zheng Rao, what is the current exchange rate between Swiss francs and RMB?"
"I don't know the specific exchange rate, nor do I know the exchange rate between the Swiss franc and the RMB. But I know that the current exchange rate between the Swiss franc and the US dollar is about 0.9. In conversion, 1 Swiss franc is worth about 7 yuan."
"Fifty million Swiss francs, that's three hundred and fifty million!"
Li Dong gasped, so much?
How did Chen Jikuan get so much money?
He read the information last night. Although the part about Chen Jikuan was not mentioned in detail, Li Dong helped to calculate it. Chen Jikuan probably made around 100 million or 200 million over the years.
Now that there are so many more, doesn't it mean that there are other unrecorded things?
Thinking about it, Li Dong didn't bother to delve into it.
A receipt worth more than 300 million yuan, this thing cannot be lost, Li Dong carefully stuffed the note into the folder.
Seeing this, Zheng Rao didn't want to stay any longer, he got up and said, "Mr. Li, if it's okay, then I'll take my leave first."
Li Dong hurriedly said: "I'm sorry to trouble you today, how about having a meal together at noon?"
Zheng Rao said with a smile: "Let's forget about eating today, Mr. Li should keep this, or deposit it in the bank, it's not safe to put it here."
A receipt worth more than 300 million yuan is scary to think about.
Zheng Rao was really afraid that Li Dong would lose something here, and she would definitely be suspected by then. After all, it seemed that only she and Li Dong knew about it.
More than 300 million, for so much money, I am afraid that some people would dare to risk dozens of lives.
Li Dong himself is also a billionaire, Zheng Rao is really afraid of getting involved, this kind of thing is too far away for her.
If she was involved, her small arms and legs would not be able to carry it.
Seeing Zheng Rao's refusal, Li Dong didn't force it, and he didn't have the mood to eat now. This suddenly brought over 300 million yuan, and Li Dong is also in a hurry to deal with it now.
It's definitely not safe to take the money if it will come soon, but it's not a problem to keep it by your side, it's too unsafe.
Li Dong thought about it and decided to deposit it in the bank. When he has time, or needs the money urgently, he will go to Switzerland to get the money out.
As for handing it over to others for help, Li Dong is not so generous.
Anonymous, if someone gets more than 300 million yuan, the devil will continue to work for him, and testing people's hearts is not like this.
This thing can only be taken by oneself, and no one else can.
Zheng Rao wanted to leave, but Li Dong didn't stay, but Liu Qi still gave him 50,000 yuan in labor fees.
Zheng Rao took the money and didn't refuse it. Naturally, translating a document is not worth the money, but 50,000 yuan for keeping the word is not too much.
Zheng Rao was also afraid that Li Dong would be jealous if he didn't take the money, so if Li Dong gave it, Zheng Rao would take it.
After leaving Yuanfang Company with 50,000 yuan, Zheng Rao couldn't help but look back and heaved a long sigh of relief.
I thought it was just an ordinary translation job, but who knew it would be involved in this kind of thing.
Li Dong actually didn't know about the three billion yuan in funds. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that there must be something wrong with it, and Zheng Rao naturally knew it too.
But that's the end of the matter, no matter where Li Dong got the money, it has nothing to do with her.
Touching the heavy small satchel, Zheng Rao showed a smile, and he was not without gain, 50,000 yuan, if this is an ordinary white-collar worker, his annual salary may not be so much.
Although her salary as an interpreter is a bit higher, it is still a lot of 50,000, which is at least equivalent to the first half of her working time.
Walking this way, back and forth for an hour, earning half a year's salary, what is there to be dissatisfied with.
