Chapter 660: Opening an NB Bank
One hundred thousand tons of gold, if simply poured into the market to exchange for paper money, is not a good idea.
The first to speak was Mu Nian.
Mu Nian was formerly Liang Shishi's assistant; with Liang Shishi present, she habitually began with an opening remark.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Liang Shishi said: "Of course we should concentrate its use, make it a financial instrument, and pour it into the futures market!"
London's gold futures see daily turnover exceeding twenty trillion US dollars; with one hundred thousand tons of gold, we could easily move the price of gold futures.
By then, whether gold futures rise or fall will be entirely up to us.
One swing up or down, going long or short, it's practically a giant sickle—how much money could we want? Everyone, right?
Liang Shishi used to be in Mi Guo, where she dealt most with finance, and she's accustomed to the American way.
But Guo Yanru, who came from industry, didn't think so.
She spoke up: "If we want to influence futures prices, we must openly disclose this batch of gold to the world."
Such a huge batch of gold, in the financial market, is equivalent to a strategic weapon; by then, it won't just be a money problem—it will also stir up other troubles.
What do you mean then?
Liang Shishi looked at Guo Yanru and asked.
Guo Yanru said: "The essence of gold is also currency; only by spending it does its value show. I suggest exchanging it for money and investing it in the real manufacturing sector."
Liang Shishi snorted, "Who could swallow all that gold at once?"
Guo Yanru replied: "It's not like we have to take it all out and exchange it at once, right?"
One wants to do finance, the other wants to do industry.
Seeing the smell of gunpowder appear,
Ouyang Moli spoke up: "You two can work together on this! Uh, I mean the finance and business you were talking about."
Tang Mi said: "Only kids do multiple‑choice questions, right?"
As soon as she finished, the 'little kid' present, Liu Cangyun, furrowed her brow.
She was there to take notes, and lately she's been especially sensitive to the word 'kid'.
Liu Cangyun lifted her head, glanced at Tang Mi, and thought, "You're the little one! So tiny."
Actually Tang Mi isn't that petite; it's just that among them she's the smallest.
Moreover, Boss Lin is over 1.8 meters tall; picturing the two of them together feels a bit off.
Zhu Li, who is currently in real estate, saw Liu Cangyun's expression and hurriedly said: "Let me say, it'd be better to take the money out and go into real estate—a surefire profit business."
Liang Shishi said: "The real estate industry is hot now and could stay hot for another two or three years, but what after that?"
Zhu Li shook her head: "My meaning isn't just building houses, but… like Jasmine Island. With this much money, we could completely buy a country."
For example, a country like Sri Lanka…
Sister Zhu Li, what you're saying isn't very realistic.
Mu Nian always defends Liang Shishi.
Wen Keke spoke up then: "Why isn't it realistic? Zhu Li means controlling a country through finance; big countries certainly won't work, but those small ones are quite easy."
Mu Nian said: "It could be done, but these small countries that live off debt have no resources of their own."
They mostly rely on tourism, their citizens' welfare is too high, and acquiring such a country would bring many future troubles.
Yun Luan spoke up then: "I have an idea that could solve this problem very well."
Saying that, she looked at Lin Feng and said: "Let's open a bank!"
Lin Feng laughed.
Finally, a woman who thinks just like him.
Is there anything in this world that makes more money than opening a bank?
There certainly is, but nothing is as stable as a bank.
With so much gold, what would we do if we didn't open a bank?
Actually, what Guo Yanru, Liang Shishi, and Zhu Li have said, Lin Feng had already thought of.
In the end, they decided opening a bank was still the safest.
Of course, Liang Shishi's futures investment idea, Guo Yanru's real‑industry investment, and Zhu Li's notion of basing something on a country can all proceed in parallel, complementing each other.
The matter of opening a bank was thus settled.
"What should we call the bank?" everyone think about it.
Lin Feng laughed and said.
"Let's call it Qingfeng Bank!" Guo Yanru said.
Liang Shishi shook her head: "It doesn't feel great; how about Shiyun Bank, rhymebank."
Ouyang Moli laughed and said: "How about mlblank, abbreviated mb— in Chinese that means 'mei bao' (beautifully awesome); this name is pretty good, right?"
As soon as she finished, Guo Yanru, Liang Shishi, and Wen Keke all furrowed their brows.
Women!
The perceptive Lin Feng shook his head, thinking that a joking remark would make them overthink.
Jiang Xiaofei then nervously raised her hand and said: "I think we should call it New World Bank— newworldbank, abbreviated nb."
Lin Feng gave Jiang Xiaofei a thumbs‑up.
Xiaofei's little head is quite sharp!
Nb, awesome!
"The most awesome bank in the world shall be called New World Bank— that's settled."
Lin Feng slammed the gavel.
The meeting ended, and Liu Cangyun brought over lots of snacks and drinks.
Let's everyone sit together and chat to enhance our feelings.
If Lin Feng is a pillar, they are the garlic cloves wrapped around it—what a vivid image!
One garlic clove equals a family.
We need to stay closely united, with Boss Lin at the center.
As a family, we ought to get along happily.
Arguments at work are normal, but don't let them carry over into everyday life.
Unfortunately, the atmosphere isn't very friendly.
When Zhao Xiaoyang got married, everyone sat together and the atmosphere was great, because it was a joyous day of her wedding.
Moreover, the scene was livelier.
Now we are in a closed room.
Also, there is one more thing.
Now things aren't normal; everyone has undergone enhancement, so their spirits are naturally high.
Lin Feng remained silent, and as we chatted, the conversation always carried some other meaning.
The smiles on their faces didn't seem entirely genuine.
Lin Feng decided it was no longer necessary, and he couldn't gather these women together again.
They themselves felt uncomfortable too.
Just then, Qi Yao, wearing a white coat, walked in.
The meeting room suddenly became quiet.
"Boss, please have a seat!"
Liu Cangyun was the first to react, laughing as he spoke.
Qi Yao was indeed tired from standing, so she sat down beside Lin Feng.
Then the atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became friendly.
Lin Feng's phone suddenly chimed with a notification.
It was sent by Qi Yao, who was sitting next to him.
It was an animated picture showing Lin Feng, as a worker, earnestly working in front of a spotted cow in the pasture.
Lin Feng immediately stood up and said calmly, "I'll step out for a moment; it's getting late, everyone should rest early."
Having said that, Lin Feng rose and left.
Qi Yao also stood up and walked out the door.
Guo Yanru, Liang Shishi, and the others left the meeting room one by one, returning to their rooms.
Lin Feng entered Qi Yao's laboratory.
It was Yaoyao who had him come over.
Lin Feng knew the boss had summoned him for a special mission!
