Obtaining the loan went surprisingly smooth, more smooth than Jiang Chen had imagined.
Carn was highly efficient as a contract in English and Chinese was sent to him the next day.
After Jiang Chen had signed, the thirty billion USD loan was transferred from the British Rothschild bank to Future Technology’s Swiss bank account. Carn then flew back to Europe after the process was complete.
Before he left, he handed Jiang Chen an invitation to the Mun Auto Exhibition and warmly exchanged departing words with him.
Monts after Jiang Chen sent the wealthy European man away, he and Xia Shiyu left the airport.
When they got on the car, Xia Shiyu couldn’t wait another second before she asked him.
“You really borrowed thirty billion USD?”
“Of course, do you think I was joking?” Jiang Chen smiled.
She looked into Jiang Chen’s eyes earnestly as she let out a sigh of defeat, “Sigh… Okay, could you tell your plan? How do you plan to be wasteful this ti?”
“Wasteful? You don’t have to describe like that,” Jiang Chen said helplessly.
But the way Xia Shiyu looked at him clearly expressed one ssage - “If this is not waste what is it?”
“4.5% in annual interest, do you know how much money you would need to pay back in five years? 37.385 billion! In USD!” Xia Shiyu exclaid emotionally.
Forty billion USD was enough to purchase half of Baidu.
“Don’t worry, I used my personal shares as collateral, not the company’s asset. Even if I can’t afford it at that ti, it won’t affect you,” Jiang Chen comforted her with a smile.
She seed displeased with Jiang Chen’s explanation as she said coldly, “Who do you think I’m concerned for?”
Jiang Chen was slightly shocked as the smile on his face turned dubious, he teased her with a smirk, “Oh? So you are saying that you are worried about ?”
As she heard his words, Xia Shiyu’s aggressive stance quickly ca to a halt as her face began to turn red.
She looked away, started the vehicle, and stopped looking in his direction.
“…”
“I, I just don’t want a new boss. I am pleased with the current work environnt. Altho… Although the current president would make people frustrated at tis, being able to relinquish control to people with ability is indeed worthy of being praised. If there is a new boss that pretends to know everything, it would be terrible.
Her luscious black bangs happened to cover the side of her face. The faint yet rapid explanation took a lot of effort for Jiang Chen to understand.
Seeing the usually cold Xia Shiyu worried about him greatly, Jiang Chen felt warmth swell up inside his body as he tried to comfort her.
“Don’t worry, it’s only thirty-sothing billion. The current market cap of Future Technology is ten billion, and I will double it in two years.”
“…”
To Jiang Chen’s unreasonable flattering, Xia Shiyu chose to remain silent.
With Xia Shiyu’s distinctly unconfident look, Jiang Chen grinned and said, “Since you don’t believe , why don’t we make a bet.”
“Make a bet? Okay. Once you’re bankrupt, beco an assistant of mine and let order you around for a few years,” Xia Shiyu joked.
“No problem.” Jiang Chen laughed, “But what if I win?”
“Up to you.” She combed her hair to the side as the tips of her mouth curved up.
Although it was a bet, it was more like banter between friends as she didn’t quite put this on her mind. Subconsciously, Xia Shiyu still believed that Jiang Chen would have a way to solve this problem. As to why she trusted him so dearly, she couldn’t explain it either.
Jiang Chen mischievously smiled as he used a joking tone. “Up to ? Really?”
She noticed Jiang Chen’s smile and paused before her pale face was once again covered in a red hue.
But she didn’t say anything this ti as she hid her expression behind her bang.

Upon the first ray of the morning sun, a plane appeared on top of Ber. With the help of the guide, the personal plane landed smoothly.
A black rcedes-Benz sedan stopped beside the airplane. A butler-looking old man walked out from inside and silently waited beside the car.
The gangway car drove beside the plane as the hatch door quickly opened, a European first stepped out of the car.
The old butler courteously bowed to Carn, then he used German to greet him, “Welco ho, master Carn.”
“It’s been a while, Mr.Cides. Is my father doing well?” Carn said pleasantly.
“Very well. Old master has been drawn into sailing,” the old butler said as he opened the door gracefully for him.
“Sailing? Let guess, he is in Florence now?”
Florence is a coastal city in the diterranean. Carn could vaguely recall they have family assets there.
“No, he is in Germany, at the manor located in Balv.” The butler shook his head.
“Balv?”
[Is that place near the sea?] Carn slightly raised his eyebrows.
“The old master wants you to take so ti to visit ho.”
“Of course, I want to see him as well.” Carn sat in the back of the car with a smile.
Johnson walked forward and sat beside Carn.
The butler only glanced at the bodyguard. He didn’t say anything as he sat in the driver seat and served the duty of a driver.
“Did you take out the tracker from the USB?” Carn whispered.
“Yes… It’s hard to believe what technology that Han possesses,” Johnson said in disbelief.
“Probably an advanced wireless blockage technology, who knows… Good thing they didn’t find anything,” Carn said.
Carn did not suspect this point at all. He could determine from their eyes whether the words were real or fake. Without the proper training in fabricating lies, it would definitely not escape his eyes.
The car arrived at the manor not soon after. The servers in the manor took Johnson to the guest room, and the old butler led Carn to the backyard.
They followed the stone path through the grass field. Then in a small wooden hut beside the man-made lake, Carn saw his own father.
Jocano Rothschild.
The giant the ruled the financial world and the person that led the Rothschild out of the gloom of the Second World War and reached the peak after the cold war. He wore a plain shirt and sat beside the lake sawing a piece of wood.
When his small son Carn was born, he stepped down as the head of the family with his own brother taking over and began living his life in seclusion. Although he stopped asking about family affairs, no one in the family questioned his influence. Since the family that was hanging on the edge was dragged back from the abyss by him.
And because of this, to his father’s request, Carn would treat the family business seriously. After getting off the plane, he headed straight to the manor without wasting a single second.
But when he saw his father sawing wood, he was dumbfounded.
