Capítulo 1495: Chapter 534: For Whom the Bell Tolls
“Thank you!” The kind-hearted Bass Orlando gave an extra five dollars tip today!
He placed the coffee and pizza on the passenger seat.
Bass Orlando got into the driver’s seat, started the car, and drove it forward for less than a ter.
Bam!
A loud noise suddenly ca from behind.
It overshadowed the roar of Bass Orlando’s car.
Screech!
Bass Orlando slamd on the brakes, and when he got out of the car, he saw a man in a gray suit lying on the ground where his car had just been parked.
His body was already… mangled.
It was impossible to make out what this person looked like, but Bass Orlando recognized the shoes!
They were Gary Hearst’s shoes!
.
Jumping off buildings!
Beca the the of the afternoon!
In every major city across the United States, people were leaping off tall buildings.
They used their lives to provide the perfect illustration of this stock market crash.
The news of these people jumping was repeatedly broadcasted on ABC.
Tang Fei had already walked out of the conference room by this ti.
Behind him, there were cheers from everyone; they didn’t care about people jumping nor how many people were jumping.
All they knew was that Venus Bank had struck gold this ti!
The stock market crash had already taken shape!
And it had beco an irreversible situation.
No one could complete the act of saving the market anymore.
The crash would continue, and they didn’t know if today was the lowest price in history, but it didn’t matter; even if it was, under such a financial crisis.
It would take two to three years for the stock market to recover.
By then, Venus Bank would be like a great white shark, ravaging the US stock market.
Devouring premium companies one after another, not because they were poorly managed, causing their stock prices to fall.
Simply because an avalanche had happened, and no one, no company, could avoid this avalanche.
Everyone in the conference room would see their wealth and influence rise along with the expansion of Venus Bank.
Everyone saw the bright future ahead!
Robert was the first to notice Donnie leaving.
He got up and went out.
He saw Donnie’s back in the corridor and caught up with him!
“Why did you co out?”
Robert caught up with Donnie and asked, seeing Donnie’s expression at this mont.
Calm and serene!
“You’re not happy?”
Donnie shook his head and said: “Why wouldn’t I be happy? I’m very happy. After this battle, we will have no more rivals in the United States, why wouldn’t I be happy?”
Robert said: “But you don’t look like you’re happy? Is it because of those jumping news?”
Donnie waved his hand and smiled: “Why should I not be happy because of them?
Everyone is an adult, and being an adult ans taking responsibility for your actions.
Now they’ve only lost a bet, unable to bear the consequences of losing.
But if they had won?
Would they be sad for our defeat?”
Robert nodded and said: “No, but your expression doesn’t look like one after a great victory.”
Donnie laughed and said: “That’s because I already guessed that we would win, so naturally there wouldn’t be such a happy expression for a known victory!”
Robert accepted Donnie’s explanation.
At this ti, Henry Dale ran over.
“Boss, just received a call from Pierre DuPont, he hopes to speak with you at this ti, and he said he is willing to accept any conditions from Venus Bank, as long as we take over the stocks of Deep Sea Bank!”
“In addition, llon, Morgan, Rockefeller, the White House, the Treasury Departnt, and the Federal Reserve have all called; they want to discuss with you how to deal with the current situation in the US stock market!”
They all know that Venus Bank will be the biggest winner in this financial crisis in Arica.
At this mont, they couldn’t wait to talk with Donnie!
Donnie waved his hand and smiled: “Tell all of them, I don’t have ti today, I just want to have a good drink now, and then celebrate crazily!”
Henry Dale was stunned for a mont, these are the most powerful people in Arica right now.
Even including President Hoover at the White House.
Donnie patted Henry Dale’s shoulder and smiled: “Rest assured, these people will be willing to wait for us!”
Then Donnie spoke to Robert again.
“Notify the Strategic Departnt of Venus Bank to keep an eye on all comrcial banks across the United States.
Now the ones jumping are just so less important people, in a few days, it will be the bankers’ turn.”
These people jumped, leaving debts as worthless paper, but debts won’t disappear out of thin air.
The loss fell on the banks that previously crazily loaned to stockbrokers, securities companies, and ordinary investors.
Donnie smiled: “At this mont, I seem to have already seen the piles of orders in those banks, stack after stack of account statents.
I’ve also seen the nonstop telegraph operators and couriers, who have to deliver thousands of margin call telegrams to every Arican.
But these people can’t pay back the money anymore!
The bank’s money doesn’t co from nowhere.”
Robert confird at this ti that Donnie really wasn’t unhappy because Donnie was still perfectly explaining their predetermined plan!
“Understood, so should we start small-scale stock purchases from tomorrow?”
Donnie shook his head: “The world is never short of adventurers, today in many people’s eyes, the stock market is at its most dangerous.
When the stock market looks the worst and prices are the lowest, it’s often the best ti to buy.
I’ve forgotten which bastard said this.
But I think there will definitely be many people following this advice.
So there will definitely be the last remaining funds entering the stock market tomorrow, able to sustain the stock market for two to three days.
After this last bit of money is swallowed by the stock market, that’s when we make our move.”
Today in Arican history, it was called Black Thursday!
People thought that after Black Thursday ended, the most dangerous ti for the stock market had passed.
But what they didn’t know was that in the week after Black Thursday, there was another event that could be called the final slaughter, Black Tuesday!
Robert had no hesitation regarding Donnie’s orders at this ti.
“Understood!”
Seeing Donnie about to leave, Robert asked: “Where are you going to celebrate now?”
Donnie chuckled and said: “Of course to the casino, such imnse fortune has befallen us, it’s always good to give God so perks.”
Robert laughed and said: “God isn’t in the casino.”
Donnie laughed heartily, saying: “God’s believers are in the casino.”
.
Anthony Rothschild slowly opened his eyes in the hospital room.
Nate Rothschild, standing next to him, showed a delighted expression.
“You’re awake!”
“What’s the situation now?” Anthony Rothschild propped himself up with his elbows and asked with all his strength.
Nate Rothschild showed a pained expression and told today’s situation to Anthony Rothschild.
Anthony Rothschild’s body, which had just been propped up, fell back onto the bed desolately.
“It’s all over!”
Nate Rothschild hurriedly said: “Not yet, before coming to the hospital, I had already called my father, the family mbers in Europe had already held a eting, they all believe that although this loss is huge.
But it’s not necessarily all bad, at least the most dangerous ti has passed, if the stock market tomorrow can stabilize at today’s level without further decline, then the family will urgently mobilize a large amount of funds from Europe.
By then, we can sweep the market at the lowest prices, and as long as we get through the next few years, we can still stand at the top of Arica!”
Anthony Rothschild eagerly wanted to sit up again.
Nate Rothschild imdiately helped upon seeing this.
“But this is the reserve fund the family prepared for the European crisis!
If the US stock market has any more waves, our losses will be imasurable!”
