Chapter 1377 Common Enemy
"How much do you owe in total?"
Shi Lei suddenly changed the topic, and Jackman was unprepared and answered directly: "Ninety-three million U.S. dollars."
"So, the problem is not the number, but the time?"
Jackman nodded with a bitter look on his face.
"There are still oddities, which means those people have collected some black money for you and asked you to help launder the money. After deducting the handling fee, you need to pay them 93 million, but this time you have suffered heavy losses and have already arrived. The point where you can’t pay?”
Jackman shook his head and said: "Actually, they gave me 200 million US dollars, and I charged 40% of their fees. The European side promised that they could only deduct 25% of my handling fees. I I originally thought I could earn 30 million, but I didn't expect... I still had some cash, but after filling it in, I was still short of 93 million."
Shi Lei nodded, forty percent, this is really cruel. It seemed to be going well in the past, but this time there was such a big difference.
This time, even the capital and profits were lost.
"Next, you should be able to withdraw a small amount of funds from Europe. Although all the funds in the companies they acquired in Tayastan have been emptied, those companies themselves should still be able to sell some money... "
Jackman sighed deeply and said: "Now the market value of those companies has been severely suppressed. They were originally acquired for tens of billions of dollars. Now, it would be great to recover one-third or half of it. Just a mere Tens of billions of dollars, so many people want to share it. If one person can get tens of millions, it is quite a large amount. They gave me a rough calculation, and I should be able to get less than 30 million from there. . Moreover, selling those companies cannot be done within a few days. Now, I don’t hide it from Mr. Shi. My creditors are pressing hard and they require me to pay back the money within five days. Money. Now, there are only four days left..."
Shi Lei nodded and said, "That seems quite miserable..."
Suddenly, Jackman realized something was wrong. He was completely brought into Shi Lei's rhythm. But before all this, there was still a very critical question that he could not get the answer to.
"But, Mr. Shi, how on earth do you know so much?"
"Because Rogers is my enemy. He wants to kill me, and I want to kill him."
Jackman was immediately shocked. His pupils shrank sharply and his body clearly showed a defensive posture.
Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "I only learned about your relationship with Rogers after this incident."
In fact, Shi Lei mentioned the ferryman's pseudonym just as a test. He was not sure that the ferryman on the American consortium's side also used this name.
But now, judging from Jackman's reaction, he was right to test the waters.
Jackman's body relaxed a little, but he still said very vigilantly: "Mr. Shi, do you want to tell me that the matter in Tayastan has something to do with you?"
Shi Lei laughed and said: "Mr. Frith, you really think highly of me. Behind this matter are the EU and Britain and France. I just lent them some things in exchange for a little It’s just profit. Do you think I have such a big hand and the ability to handle such a huge event with a total amount of nearly 500 billion US dollars?”
Jackman hesitated for a moment and seemed to think that what Shi Lei said made sense. Indeed, it was their four consortiums and many personal connections that finally raised the US$500 billion.
Behind this Tayastan incident, it is indeed the EU and Britain and France that are pushing it. Shi Lei can never be the promoter, not even the executor. Such a huge benefit can only be achieved by countries and organizations. Get involved.
"Mr. Shi, what do you mean when you tell me this?" In any case, Jackman was already very wary of Shi Lei. He thought he had underestimated Shi Lei, but now he respected him enough. However, he now knows that the respect he showed just now is still a kind of contempt. Even if Shi Lei just got involved in the Tayastan incident, it means that Shi Lei's identity and status are far beyond his imagination. .
Shi Lei smiled and said: "I made some money this time, but I have an agreement with the EU first. I can't withdraw this money for my own use, but I have to keep it in the free fund in Tayastan... Oh, freedom Mr. Frith should have heard of the term fund.”
Jackman frowned and said, "It turns out that the Liberty Fund belongs to Mr. Shi...Mr. Shi is really a philanthropic person."
Shi Lei still smiled and said: "Originally, I had planned to close the Liberty Fund. This fund was not founded by me. To be honest, I only got it not long ago. The fund has no money, and I have no intention of continuing to inject funds. After all, it's a bottomless pit. Fortunately, the political situation in Tayastan is finally stable, and there will be fewer and fewer places that need free funds in the future. But I didn't expect that idiot Rogers to come to my door. I don't want it. The money earned will still be taken away by the European Union and Britain and France. In this case, I reluctantly accepted that the money will remain in the Liberty Fund, and the first step is to use it to acquire those who were once led by Rogers. The acquired company.”
Jackman looked at Shi Lei intently, as if he wanted to know how a young man like Shi Lei, who was in his early twenties, could have such courage, and even seem to be able to participate in such things with ease.
After a long time, Jackman said: "Call me Jackman."
He never dared to show any arrogance in front of Shi Lei again.
"Mr. Shi, what is your purpose in telling me so much?"
Shi Lei said: "I heard that the funds on the books of those companies were transferred by Rogers and all went into his personal account."
Shi Lei certainly knew that the ferryman did not get a penny. Before the negotiations between the EU and Russia were concluded, the money would forever be dormant in those accounts that had been deactivated nearly 30 years ago.
However, he also knew that whether it was the European consortium or the American consortium, they would only think that the money was taken away by the ferryman.
"So, Jackman, don't you think Rogers is our common enemy now?"
Jackman gnashed his teeth when he mentioned the pseudonym of the ferryman.
This time, he took out at least more than 10 billion US dollars. He originally thought that he could make a lot of money, but he almost lost everything.
In addition, he owed a debt for this, which now gave him a headache.
"Rogers! He is not only the enemy of Mr. Shi and me, but also the enemy of many other people."
"I am glad to share the same hatred with you. So, I think we can set a common goal, which is to dig out Rogers and take what we need. I want his life, as for other things, I am not interested."
"Rogers must be a thorn in Mr. Shi's throat. You will not be able to sleep or eat well until he dies." Jackman quickly entered the state of negotiating with Shi Lei. He had heard from Shi Lei's words that Shi Lei could not find the ferryman.
