I don't know how long it had been, Green was startled, got up and walked out. He didn't dare to drive his own car, but took a taxi home.

After arriving home, he simply packed some clothes, took money and bank cards, went out, and took a taxi straight to the airport.

Arriving at the airport, Green got out of the car. When he turned back to get his suitcase, another taxi drove over and stopped beside him.

A white fat man got out of the car. Green turned his head after getting his luggage and exclaimed: "Boss?"

Keton didn't expect to run into his employee when running away: "Green, where are you going?"

At this time, Green also reacted, the boss also wanted to run away: "Haven't thought about it yet."

Keton laughed: "Follow me to Xiangjiang. It is the most important financial center in the world, just like New York and London. I believe that in Xiangjiang, we will definitely take back everything we lost."

"Okay!"

Green agreed without thinking. Anyway, he had nowhere to go, and following Keton to Xiangjiang was also good. Moreover, this was a rare opportunity. After all, he was his old employee, following him to run away to Xiangjiang, how could he not reuse him.

"OK!" Keton patted Green on the shoulder happily, "I have a very good friend in Xiangjiang, let's go find him."

At this time, Huaerjie was already preparing to celebrate, while in London, some people were preparing to walk onto the roof, but they were still holding onto a glimmer of hope, waiting for the government to come up with a way to save the market.

Lamont called Albert again to request an interest rate hike, and this time he agreed.

At 11:30, the British government announced an interest rate hike, from 10% to 12%. It looked like the interest rate hike was only 2%, but the adjustment range of central bank interest rate hikes and cuts was 0.25% each time.

And the British government's one-time 2% interest rate hike was 0.8 times. With such a large interest rate hike, the pound had no reaction and continued to fall.

Immediately after, Lamont went to see Albert personally to discuss how to save the pound that was about to fall to the bottom. The result was another 3% interest rate hike, raising the interest rate to 15%. What reaction would there be this time? Very sorry, still no reaction!

The market expected that the UK would have to depreciate the pound, so no matter how much interest rates were raised or how many pounds were bought, this situation could not be changed.

In the afternoon, the British government convened an emergency meeting. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Prime Minister, the Foreign Secretary, the President of the Board of Trade, and the Home Secretary unanimously decided that the UK would withdraw from the ERM.

At 7:30 in the evening, Lamont held a press conference, announcing that the UK would withdraw from the ERM and implement a floating exchange rate system. The pound against the German mark fell by 4%, and against the US dollar fell by 2%.

In this action to defend the pound, the British government used foreign exchange reserves worth 26.9 billion US dollars, but eventually suffered a crushing defeat and was forced to withdraw from the European exchange rate system.

Up to this point, this battle of the century came to an end. Huaerjie won. While raising glasses and cheering, three people jumped off the roof of the London Exchange one after another. And in other places, such things continued to be staged.

No. 3 large client room, Alice and Wang Ting cheered, jumping and leaping, their faces flushed with excitement. Using 40 million US dollars, 400 times leverage, to rake in more than 1 billion US dollars, just thinking about it was exciting.

This battle of the century, they not only witnessed it, but also participated in it. Especially Alice, for her career, this was definitely a heavy stroke.

Seeing Jian Qiu looked at the two with a smile, and didn't speak until they calmed down: "Are you interested in coming to my company?"

"Your company?" Alice was stunned.

"Yes!" Seeing Jian Qiu said: "Jian Dong International, a newly established financial company."

Alice was very moved. Although it was a newly established company, after this pound crisis, Jian Dong International would definitely soar into the sky and rank among the first-class financial companies.

"Okay!" Alice agreed, "But give me two days, because I have to resign from my original company and do the handover."

Seeing Jian Qiu nodded: "No problem, let's go celebrate now. As for the stock market, this is a long-term process, at least a few months."

Seeing Jian Qiu thought about this shorting of the pound, plus bottom-fishing the British stock market. After 1992, conservatively estimated, the profit could reach 1.6 billion.

Naturally, Zhou Andong's appearance appeared in her mind, and a smile appeared on her face. My Seeing Jian Qiu's vision is unique, and the man I fancy is naturally unique.

The night in London is charming, but the atmosphere on this day was very oppressive. I don't know how many millionaires and multi-millionaires became penniless overnight. And how many people jumped off the roof without hesitation.

It was past ten in the evening, Seeing Jian Qiu returned to the hotel. Just as she entered the room, the phone rang.

She walked over quickly, picked it up, and a woman's voice came from the receiver: "Qiuqiu, the mining companies you asked me to register in Singapore, Malaysia, the British Virgin Islands, and the Cayman Islands have all been registered, 100% held by Jian Dong International.

In addition, the Qiu Dongfang Financial Company in Xiangjiang has also been registered, and the office location has been found. When you come, you can transfer the equity of Jian Dong International to Qiu Dongfang."

Seeing Jian Qiu said: "This matter is not urgent, I have to wait until the end of the year or after the New Year to go over. You set up the framework of the company, and I will transfer a sum of funds to you in a few days to let the company operate first."

The other party said helplessly: "When I was in school, I served you, this young lady. I didn't expect that after graduation, I still couldn't escape your clutches. It seems that I am destined to run errands for you."

Seeing Jian Qiu laughed out loud: "Dear, don't complain. I said I would let you eat well, drink well, drive luxury cars, and live in luxury houses, and I can definitely do it."

"I'd be a fool to believe you!" The other party complained, "Alright, I don't know what you are tossing about, registering companies all over the world, both finance and mining."

After finishing, the other party hung up the phone.

Seeing Jian Qiu put down the phone with a smile. This woman's name was Wu Huilin, a Xiangjiang person, and her university classmate. It could be said that in those years, they ate and lived together, and their relationship was as good as one person.

After graduation, Seeing Jian Qiu returned to the mainland, and Wu Huilin returned to Xiangjiang. The contact between the two naturally decreased, but every year around the New Year, they still called to greet each other.

This time, Seeing Jian Qiu came to the UK. Zhou Andong asked her to do many things, and she needed a helper. The only one she could trust was Wu Huilin, so she handed some things over to Wu Huilin.

And Wu Huilin hadn't been doing so well these years. She had finally found a job she was relatively satisfied with when she received Seeing Jian Qiu's call, and then she resigned without hesitation.

This also proved that after so many years, although the opportunities to meet were few, her feelings with Seeing Jian Qiu had never become lighter.

"Ding-a-ling!" Seeing Jian Qiu was just about to take a shower when the phone rang again. And the person who could call her at this time must be Zhou Andong.
