Chapter 490: Chapter 342: The Several Billions That Came to the Door! _2

"Exactly." Frederick Hall exclaimed, "Who would’ve thought, those billions of dollars, now only worth tens or hundreds of millions..."

Although he said so, he didn’t actually feel much about it.

This money was almost all taken out by illegal means, or gray income.

It came so quickly, so he didn’t really cherish it that much.

The reason Frederick Hall could be sure that these people would produce their deposit receipts was mainly due to the string of reactions after the 2008 bankruptcy of the Lehman Corporation. At that time, all the money deposited in the Lehman’s brother bank was gone.

Americans have this tradition, capitalism itself is inherently like this, so blame yourself for bad judgment, coveting that small policy advantage, and insisted on depositing in this bank.

In two days, Frederick Hall received deposit receipts from seventeen homes, totaling over 400 million dollars, and exchanged over ten million dollars from Sean Knight.

Apart from the amount promised to those seventeen households, Frederick Hall made a net profit of five million dollars.

Laughing all the way to his dreams.

He hurriedly paid taxes on this money, bought things that needed to be bought, and took out what needed to be taken out.

He now has a profound distrust of banks.

With the money, Frederick Hall hired a new female assistant, and rolled up the bedsheets that same night.

Early the next morning, Frederick Hall was awakened by a phone call.

"Frederick Hall, you bastard! Give back my deposit receipt ... I’ll give you the money back, I regret this deal!"

The caller was a real estate contractor in the circle who had escaped with the pre-sale money early. Now he dare not go back, the people living in the unfinished building are still suing him everywhere.

He had over 20 million dollars in his account at the Silicon Valley Bank. This time, the deposit receipt was gone, and he had to redeem eight hundred thousand dollars from Frederick Hall out of helplessness.

He was originally content, but now the new news made him restless!

Frederick Hall was also puzzled:

"Mr. Warren, what do you mean? Why the regret? This transaction has been established. Do you think you are buying things domestically on Pinduoduo, with a seven-day unconditional refund?

At that time, you voluntarily came to me to sell the deposit receipt like a grandson. Didn’t you?"

Warren Foster was speechless for a moment, but now that it involves twenty million dollars, how could he really be dissuaded by a few words from Frederick Hall? When Frederick Hall said so, he firmly believed that the other side already knew the news and had deceived him!

"You, Mr. Frederick, just say whether you will return it or not? I tell you, if you don’t give me the deposit receipt, I will smash your house!"

" You come?" Frederick Hall was not frightened. Now that he has money, money makes people dare, and he simply says, "There are several guns in my house’s gun cabinet, I am waiting for you!"

"You... Frederick, you can’t do this! I was wrong, I apologize to you, but you can give me half... How about ten million? I don’t want the remaining over ten million, right?"

Frederick Hall didn’t understand what was going on, and he laughed when he heard Warren Foster’s words.

"Mr. Warren, Are you still dreaming? The bank is bankrupt. Who will give you twenty million?"

"Mr. Frederick, didn’t you watch the news?" Warren Foster heard that Frederick Hall seems to know nothing, "The US Government has announced that it will provide a huge amount of funds to Silicon Valley Bank to ensure that depositors can withdraw their money."

"What?" Frederick Hall stood up abruptly, exposing a body of white flesh and unspeakable little things. He no longer cared, "Warren, that’s impossible, right? You’re listening to rumors, aren’t you?"

"How could it be a rumour? This is what was announced in the news! Now in Silicon Valley Bank, there are already a lot of people lining up to withdraw money!"

"Really?" Frederick Hall ignored Warren Foster, hung up the phone and immediately opened his mobile phone to search, and also turned on the television at the same time.

This would have been explosive news, so many TV stations were broadcasting it. Soon, Frederick Hall saw the news he was looking for.

After watching the news broadcast, Frederick Hall slumped on the sofa.

Five hundred million!

Five hundred million dollars!

He had just casually given it to Sean Knight!

He exchanged over ten million from him, he divided a few millions, and was still complacent!

He even repeatedly cursed in private that Sean Knight is a fool, and with a bit of persuasion and a high hat, he made his money go away.

"Big idiot — I’m the big idiot..." Frederick Hall sat on the sofa. His female assistant had also come out of the bedroom. At this moment, she watched him muttering to himself and was thinking, could this guy be crazy?

At this time, Sean Knight also received a complete report on Frederick Hall.

"A few years ago, Frederick Hall was a senior member of the Domestic River Improvement Committee. During the river management process, he employed cronies and delivered benefits to some engineering companies, and received a large number of bribes and kickbacks.

Late one year, floods occurred and the river embankment was breached, causing a lot of loss of life and property. At that time, Frederick Hall was on an inspection tour abroad, upon receiving the news he simply left the inspection group and disappeared."

"Damnit, turns out he’s such a corrupt official — I should’ve stabbed him that night!" Douglas and the others had all participated in the flood control. On the river bank, the thing they feared most was the river embankment collapsing due to man-made factors —

He had a reason to hate.

"Don’t worry, our dull knife will make him hurt." Sean pointed to the television and said, "Now the second knife is coming down. I guess this Frederick Hall will call soon."

Within two minutes, the phone rang.

It was Frederick Hall.

Sean Knight chuckled and answered the phone.
