Chapter 1475: Good things come to those who wait!

'...'

'I know about your difficulties.'

'Over the years, we have always supported each other. The current crisis may seem alarming, but in fact we can still get through it.'

'For the next few days, you should deal with it on your own. I need to understand the situation of other people and also need time to formulate a more comprehensive implementation plan.'

'I should have a result in three days.'

After another half hour of discussion, seeing that Harry Oppenheimer and the others were reluctant to leave, as if their butts had grown roots, Jacob Rothschild could only give them an answer to set their minds at ease.

After hearing the sound of the engine gradually fade away,

Evelyn Rothschild looked at Jacob Rothschild and said with a sad face, 'Jacob, we have really encountered the biggest crisis since World War II this time. Even our allies are worried that we will not be able to overcome the crisis.'

In the past few decades, nothing like this has ever happened.

How could Evelyn Rothschild not see that although Harry Oppenheimer and the others seemed to have come for help, they were actually probing the situation and even trying to force their way in.

The only thing they were worried about was that the Rothschilds would sell them out!

When even allies have this kind of mentality, you can imagine how urgent the current situation is!

Without any outsiders present, Jakob Rothschild did not hide his emotions.

He could not help but sigh, rub his temples, and said with some distress, 'The enemy seized the perfect opportunity...'

Evelyn Rothschild nodded: 'Yes, while we were losing in Hong Kong...'

'Alright, let's not talk about the past.' Jacob Rothschild immediately spoke up to stop Evelyn Rothschild from mentioning this sad matter again.

In the quiet of the night, Jacob Rothschild pondered more than once that he had discovered that every time the Rothschild family plotted against Xia Yu, they ended in failure.

And the losses of the Rothschild family became greater and greater each time!

It was as if the young Chinese man was a nightmare for the Rothschild family.

He has also reflected more than once that if he had known at the beginning that Xia Yu would achieve such success, would he not have tried to control him from the very beginning instead of trying to eliminate him?

Unfortunately...

there is no medicine for regret in this world.

He can only completely position Xia Yu as an enemy on the same level as David Rockefeller and John Chris Morgan, and warn himself not to make similar mistakes in the future.

'So, Jacob, what should we do now?'

'The enemy's targets are not just companies like Anglo American, Rio Tinto, and NatWest. With people like Harry Oppenheimer here, others will come looking for us if they get wind of it.'

'We're already under a lot of pressure. Many senior executives have already come to me to report the situation, and our funds are also very tight,'

Evelyn Rothschild asked with a heavy heart after a moment of silence.

Jacob Rothschild closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

After a long while,

He opened his eyes abruptly and said coldly, 'This time, the enemy is too strong. It is difficult for us and our previous allies to match them.'

'But the enemy is too strong, and we are not without a chance.'

'The capital structure in Europe has evolved over the centuries and has become relatively stable.'

'European countries, including other consortia and families, can accept our existence, but they definitely will not accept other consortia barging in to reshuffle the capital.'

'What's more, the two crocodiles that want to break in this time are the two most powerful crocodiles in the world today.'

'If Rockefeller and Morgan really break in, we will suffer heavy losses. Others may not suffer now, but they will definitely suffer in the future.'

'From now on, Europe will always be a vassal of the United States, and European capital will be exploited by American capital!'

'If they are willing to accept this result, then what if we surrender?'

At the end of his speech, Jacob Rothschild's eyes narrowed.

Evelyn Rothschild shuddered, his thoughts completely opened up, and a smile could not be suppressed on his face.

He clenched his fists and said in a serious voice, 'Jacob, you are absolutely right in your analysis!'

'The enemies of the Nine Cauldrons Consortium, the Rockefeller Consortium and the Morgan Consortium can join forces and join forces with our local European consortia to attack us.'

'Then let's enlist the support of other conservative forces and governments.'

'The Single European Act signed by the European Community last year will soon come into effect, with the aim of achieving a unified market with the free movement of goods, capital, services and people by the end of 1992. The next five years are destined to be the time of greatest market change.'

'The various consortia and families are already full of anticipation and worry about the unknown future. At this time, if a group of giants from outside Europe rush in and kill indiscriminately, none of us will be able to resist, and not many people will be able to bear it!'

The more he talked, the clearer Evelyn Locher's thoughts became, and his eyes grew brighter, as if he could already see the victory in the defensive battle.

He had had enough of the depression and frustration these days.

The endless pressure had kept him up at night every night.

The situation must be turned around as soon as possible!

Evelyn Locher looked at his watch and saw that it was already 9:12 pm.

Although it was a bit late, it was not too late to have a meeting.

So he suggested, 'Jakob, shall we gather the people together now?'

'The other family members who can't make it, we'll just have the meeting over the phone.'

Jakob Rothschild thought about it for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll notify the family members, and you notify the core think tank at the same time.'

'Yes!" Evelyn Rothschild answered loudly.

Then he got up and left the living room quickly.

Jacob Rothschild also returned to the study, picked up the secret landline and began notifying the staff.

Two blossoming flowers each express their own branch.

Just as the Rothschild family was plotting in an emergency.

Xia Yu, who was still in Xiangjiang, received a group of people led by Ma Jianmin, the president of BOC Xiangjiang, at home.

This time, Ma Jianmin was only acting as a middleman.

The people who came to visit Xia Yu were actually two very special people:

Qiao Rui, the head of the China Merchants Group, and Liu Fumin, a reformist figure from above who has made great achievements in the economic field!

"Hello, Mr Xia, I've wanted to visit you for a long time, but I never found the opportunity. This time, I finally got my wish!'

Although Qiao Rui is a middle-aged man in his fifties, he speaks very frankly, giving a very comfortable feeling.

'Mr Qiao, don't you feel that I'm just like a nose with two eyes?'

Xia Yu joked.

Qiao Rui froze for a moment, then laughed, and the others followed suit.

Xia Yu's joke had instead brought the two closer together, which made Qiao Rui and Liu Fumin and the others feel better.

'Please come inside!'

'...'

After arriving in the living room and taking their seats, the servant poured tea for everyone.

Xia Yu took the initiative to ask, 'Mr. Qiao, I wonder what I can do for you this time?'

'I don't dare accept your help. It is we who have a request of you!' Qiao Rui hurriedly waved his hands and said.

Then he rested his hands on his knees and said with a serious expression, 'Mr. Xia, in fact, there is such a background for this visit.'

'It has been so many years since the reform and opening up of the mainland, and the results have been very gratifying, but there are also some shortcomings.'

'One of these is the problem of the distribution of banks on the mainland. Postal savings, ICBC, ABC and other banks all have their own functions.'

'So the higher-ups want to start from scratch and build a new bank!'

'Your strength in the banking sector is obvious to all, so they sent me to consult with you.'

Xia Yu's heart stirred, and he secretly thought that this long-awaited opportunity had actually come to him on its own initiative.
