Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

The foreign woman, still puzzled, asked in return, "Is this Asian man very famous?"

"Yes, he's quite famous in the financial world. Years ago, he successfully predicted the sharp depreciation of the US dollar against gold. It's speculated that he made at least five billion US dollars from that one venture capital investment."

That was over ten years ago. After that, this person disappeared from the financial world. At first, everyone thought it was a smokescreen released by the Hawke family, as a lot of personal information about this person was leaking from the Hawke family…”

"So, the reason he came to see you this time is...?"

"He's like a great white shark in the ocean, he must have smelled blood! Come to think of it, how could such a shrewd investor not see through the recent series of moves by the US? No, that's not right!"

"What's wrong?"

President Buck ignored the foreign woman and continued to mutter to himself, "There's definitely something wrong here..." President Buck rhythmically tapped the boss's table.

The woman knew his habits, so she turned around, poured him a glass of wine, and handed it to him.

After tasting just two pieces, Buck figured it out.

"Haha... This person must have fallen out with the Hawke family, which is why they came to me... That must be it."

Jewish capital and established European capital both cooperated and fought each other, belonging to two different circles.

"So, will you see him or not?"

"Of course you should see him, and as soon as possible. Call him tomorrow and arrange to meet at my office at nine in the morning." He then put down the wine glass in his hand.

"I'm in great shape right now..." he said, pulling the person away from the other side of the desk...

"Oh, Buck, didn't you say we're not allowed to talk about personal feelings during work?"

"I'm talking about you. I'm now the head of this company..." Buck said domineeringly, tearing open the foreign woman's clothes...

Meanwhile, Niu Dazhuang and his group had just returned to their apartment when Lao Qiang and Lao Feng, who had disappeared for about ten days, reappeared.

"You two go back to your rooms first." Niu Dazhuang told Guan Meinu and Qian Xiaohao to go back to their rooms first.

"Boss, we've taken a trip, and it's basically fine."

"Okay, that's fine then. Thank you both for your hard work."

Niu Dazhuang returned to his room. Guan Jiahui didn't ask any questions; she now only asks about things Niu Dazhuang doesn't bring up himself.

night

Guan Meinu nestled against Niu Dazhuang's broad chest: "Godfather, both sides have called. Which one should we go to first tomorrow?"

"First to Solomon, then to Standard Chartered, and in the afternoon to Sumitomo."

"Oh, you dislike the Japanese, don't you? Why are you cooperating with them?"

"I hate it as much as I hate it, but for the next ten years or so, I need a familiar business partner in Japan. In peacetime, nothing is more satisfying than making money off the Japanese here. I'll make them watch me fleece them, and they can't do anything about it."

The next day, Niu Dazhuang successfully met with Barker from Solomon Bank. Just as he had expected, this Jewish man had no principles whatsoever; as long as cooperation could make money, he didn't care about anything else.

According to their agreement, Niu Dazhuang transferred two billion US dollars to Buck, using this two billion US dollars as collateral for Cuntou San.

There's no risk with Buck; he'll earn at least three percent. Three percent of two billion dollars is sixty million dollars.

To put it simply, if you gave that much money to Buck alone, he would immediately quit his job and retire peacefully at home.

Smedley was furious as she watched as two billion dollars from her bank were transferred to Solomon.

Having two billion US dollars sitting at home is a risk-free business. By paying Niu Dazhuang a few percent interest each year, banks can lend out the money and profit from the interest rate spread, which is quite lucrative.

For over a decade, Niu Dazhuang has had $6.6 billion sitting idle in his own bank, earning more interest than he can spend each year. Over these ten years, simply profiting from the interest rate differential on that $6.6 billion has made their financial statements look good.

Nowadays, most banks can't even come up with a few hundred million US dollars, let alone 6.6 billion.

The more Smedley thought about it, the more she felt that her cousin had screwed her over. Scott had kept the $6.6 billion, allocating nearly half of it to himself. He definitely had to give an explanation to the later shareholders, and if things went wrong, he might even lose his position.

Smedley immediately quieted down.

When Niu Dazhuang came over again around 10 a.m., he revealed all the preferential terms he had.

"Mr. Niu, as long as you don't transfer the money you have in my bank account again, I can exchange it all for onshore Japanese yen. I'll charge you the minimum handling fee of 0.3%."

"You've got your transactions going, and the commission is the lowest at 1.5%, with no management fees whatsoever. From now on, you'll be our permanent top-tier VIP..."

Niu Dazhuang listened to him with a smile and said, "Seeing how sincere you are, I'll leave you with 2.6 billion, but I'll still take 1 billion."

Smedley broke out in a cold sweat. "Mr. Niu, please. If you're not satisfied with the terms I've offered, we can discuss it further."

Niu Dazhuang shook his head: "Your offer is generous enough. I'm the kind of person who never takes advantage of others. If I squeeze all the benefits out of you, you might not say anything, but you'll definitely curse me behind my back, and the subsequent service will certainly not keep up..."

In the afternoon, Sumitomo's people came and transferred another billion dollars.

Now that things are sorted out, all that's left is to follow the instructions and convert all the offshore US dollars into offshore Japanese yen.

Knowing that the yen was bound to appreciate, the current exchange rate is 1:260 USD/JPY.

In September 1985, Japan signed the Plaza Accord. By November 1985, just two months later, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the Japanese yen had reached approximately 1:204, representing an appreciation of more than 27%.

In order to reap this benefit, Niu Dazhuang had to plan ahead for a year. Niu Dazhuang was ruthless enough to pledge a total of $66 billion from three banks, all of which were leveraged five times.

They lent out $330 billion, which was exchanged for 85800 trillion yen at an exchange rate of 1:260.

It's easier said than done. Such a large sum as $330 billion would definitely need to be broken down into hundreds of transactions to exchange for yen, all while trying to do so discreetly...

It took Niu Dazhuang two months to convert all 330 billion offshore US dollars in his hands into offshore Japanese yen.

Over the phone, Qian Xiaohao told Niu Dazhuang that all the orders in his hand had been converted into Japanese yen.

Niu Dazhuang glanced at the offshore USD/JPY exchange rate on TV again, and seeing no change, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Such a large amount, even if it's a small order, is still quite tight considering it's being placed over a long period. Japan's total annual trade volume is only around 500 billion US dollars.

Niu Dazhuang has sold off $330 billion in just over two months, so some fluctuation is normal.
