Chapter 143

The next morning, the sun was bright.

Standing in front of the former Wells Fargo headquarters, everyone's eyes were filled with sadness.

Because this night, the losses everyone suffered were simply too huge.

Looking at the houses burned to the ground on both sides of the street, and the many sheriffs and cowboys being carried away, everyone fell silent.

Because counting this up, it was another expensive expenditure!

"Damn it, who did this? I want to bite his throat off!"

Roaring in anger, Maelick could not help but hiss.

Hearing Maelick's words, many shareholders revealed angry gazes, because Wells Fargo this time had simply had its tailbone broken; whether it could stand up in the future was a question!

"John! Heard you need help, right?"

Walking down from a carriage in the distance, the president of Citibank appeared with a smile on his face.

And looking at the man before him, Maelick said: "Ross, I can handle it well, no need for your worry!"

"Oh, is that so? But I don't think you can handle all of this!"

Looking at Maelick with a smile on his face, Ross looked at the people not far away.

Because these were the depositors of Wells Fargo; they didn't care who snatched the money, they only worried about whether their money could be withdrawn!

But if Wells Fargo couldn't do this, then sorry, even if the Heavenly King came, it wouldn't work!

"Quickly contact California and other state banks; the headquarters needs support!"

Speaking hysterically, Maelick leaned over to Luo Lun's side and spoke.

But hearing Maelick's words, Luo Lun said: "President, except for California, the other branches have no spare capacity to help us at all! This will cause a chain reaction!"

Hearing Luo Lun's words, Maelick's high blood pressure also went up.

Because except for California, which could provide support by relying on the "Gold Rush," other places still needed the headquarters to support them every month!

But now, he could no longer think of other solutions, unless other shareholders put up money together to compensate, or else pull in investors and borrow from Citibank!

But facing this kind of thing, would Citibank agree? Perhaps they were hoping for Wells Fargo to go bankrupt!

And even if they were willing, the conditions given would be very harsh.

As for investors, Maelick didn't think anyone would buy shares in Wells Fargo at this time, unless they were crazy!

Standing in a room with a good view, Zhang Cheng looked at Maelick and the others in the distance, the corners of his mouth raising a cold sneer.

Because he knew that the only person who could save Wells Fargo now was himself!

And the gold from California would never reach New York!

After pacifying the depositors below, Maelick gave a deadline, which was ten days later, promising everyone would be able to withdraw their money.

Facing the answer given by Maelick, the depositors were still very dissatisfied, but many municipal officials came out to stand for them, and this matter was finally suppressed.

However, if the money wasn't seen after ten days, then let alone the mayor, even the president coming wouldn't work!

Revealing a playful smile, Zhang Cheng spat out a sunflower seed shell and said: "Look, our wise and mighty President Maelick has encountered trouble!"

Listening to Zhang Cheng's sarcasm, Yu Guang silently lowered his head.

Because Maelick encountering this kind of thing wasn't because Zhang Cheng didn't follow the rules of martial arts!

Gold worth over 12 million dollars, what kind of concept is this in the nineteenth century?

Even if Zhang Cheng stopped working from now on and just knew how to have children every day, by the next century, his family would still be one of the top ones in the United States!

Of course, this doesn't include foreign families; after all, those royal families are even scarier!

The hunting ground in the suburbs,

A pheasant was leaping from the bushes.

Raising the revolver in his hand, Zhang Cheng hit it quickly.

Just after he finished all this, Yu Guang walked over quickly and said: "Boss, Luo Lun is here!"

"Oh, isn't there still a few days left?"

Counting the days, Zhang Cheng felt that even if Maelick surrendered, he would have to hold out until the last day!

But he didn't expect that it was only the seventh day, and they couldn't hold on anymore!

Walking into the magnificent hall, Luo Lun looked at Zhang Cheng and immediately smiled: "Zhang, it seems you are very leisurely lately!"

"Of course, after all, it wasn't the Wells Fargo in San Francisco that was robbed!" Looking at Luo Lun with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng could not help but explain.

"Sorry buddy, I have to tell you one thing, and that is, your money was also robbed!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Luo Lun hurriedly spoke.

"What are you saying?"

Looking at Luo Lun in confusion, after Zhang Cheng finished this sentence, he immediately frowned.

"The headquarters encountered such a thing and planned to withdraw funds, but five million worth of gold had problems before leaving California. I came this time to tell you..."

Just after Luo Lun spoke, Zhang Cheng said "angrily": "Damn it, can't you even guarantee the depositors' money?"

"It's not like that, Zhang. You have to know, the current situation of Wells Fargo is very harsh..."

Explaining to Zhang Cheng, Luo Lun seemed to want to say something.

But just at this moment, Zhang Cheng said: "No one can snatch my money. This account belongs to your Wells Fargo. If my money isn't cashed out, I will find Citibank to find a way!"

Looking at Luo Lun earnestly, Zhang Cheng naturally wouldn't care what Luo Lun said.

After all, this was the bank's error; he wouldn't take responsibility.

If Wells Fargo couldn't come up with the money or something of equivalent value, Zhang Cheng would immediately switch to Citibank and let them collect the debt. Presumably, Citibank would definitely be very willing to do so!

!. Read

Citibank: You just say the word, I'll handle it for you immediately!

Wells Fargo: Buddy, are you hoping I don't die?

"Don't worry, we will use shares to exchange for your money. How about twelve percent?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Luo Lun immediately explained.

"Is it still useful for me to take Wells Fargo shares now?"

Looking at Luo Lun playfully, Zhang Cheng said: "Your affairs are known throughout North America. Are you trying to play empty-handed white wolf now? Tell Maelick, wanting to solve this matter is very simple. I can even use the Far East Group as a guarantee, and that is I want sixty percent of the shares!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Luo Lun was completely frightened by his words.

Because Zhang Cheng didn't want to be a shareholder anymore; he wanted to be the president!

But the problem is, would Maelick and the other shareholders agree to this?

After leaving the manor, Luo Lun found Maelick and told him about this matter.

Hearing Zhang Cheng's request, Maelick directly grabbed the beloved vase beside him and smashed it: "Crazy, that crazy man wants to take away everything I have! It is absolutely impossible for me to agree to him!"

But just after saying these words, Maelick slumped into his chair.

Looking at Maelick for a long time, Luo Lun said: "If the Far East Group is willing to act as a guarantee, presumably the depositors would be more willing to believe him!"

There were not many paths left in front of Wells Fargo.

Either accept bankruptcy liquidation, or everyone finds wealthier tycoons to buy in.

But the only thing was, they would absolutely not give Zhang Cheng's conditions, let alone take over Wells Fargo entirely.

Thinking for a long time, Maelick rubbed his eyes and said: "I can accept his conditions, but not sixty percent, only fifty-two percent!"

Not wanting his efforts to turn into bubbles, Maelick could only angrily agree to this request.

Because he knew too well what he would become after having nothing.
