Chapter 9 Counting the money until the hand cramps
Happy Dragon Boat Festival!
Ji Feng tilted his head and frowned slightly, "I will let you see the original, but that must be that you organize a professional lawyer team and be sure to help me win this war. Yes, in my opinion, the South Korean government cannot return Jeju Island to me obediently, so this is a war, a war that may be filled with gunpowder."
Patner's hands holding the copy were trembling slightly. Before he could wake up from the huge shock, he heard Ji Feng's words, and after walking back and forth in the conference room for a few steps, he stopped and turned to look at Ji Feng and said, "Yes, if you guarantee that this is true, then we, Shida, are 50% sure to help you get it back. If you are willing to pay some more, we are 80% sure, because this requires mobilizing all our resources. I am afraid it is not just a matter of attorney fees. I believe that you cannot just charge attorney fees if you find any law firm."
Ji Feng frowned slightly and asked, "What about?"
Patner's heart was beating with a little unsatisfactory. This feeling seemed to be something that he had when he was just practicing. The case in front of him was too big, so big that once it was leaked, it would inevitably attract the attention of the whole world.
"For example, we need to hire certain mercenaries to protect everyone's safety and let South Korea ced such a large area of land. Even if we have sufficient evidence in our hands, South Korea may not be willing to take it out. Assassination and conflict against everyone may be inevitable."
"We also need countries around the world to put pressure on the South Korean government, and these must be paid a certain price. I believe you also know that governments in various countries are not just looking at money. Of course, if you leave this matter to us, Sita, we are absolutely sure to help you get it back, but I am afraid that what you want to come back will not be all, or ownership. For example, in one aspect, you may have to make a certain leave, just take taxes or something else. This is what governments hope for."
Ji Feng frowned slightly and said, "Ms. Patner should first form the team I need. I need at least five senior partners, at least three of them are pure Americans. After your team arrives, we will discuss the price I need to pay. But it is best not to be too greedy. After all, this is the legacy left by my great-grandfather. I want to take it back intact, but I don't want it to be a piece of shabby, or there are any flaws in some aspects. Finally, I need you to keep my identity confidential. I don't want to be involved in any disputes. At least I don't want my identity to be exposed before things end."
"Of course, Mr. Ji can be completely relieved that our Shida is the most professional in the world. There is no lawsuit we cannot win. We have never leaked any information from our customers so far." Patner shook hands with Ji Feng with a smile, feeling a little excited. It is definitely my luck to encounter such a huge international lawsuit in his lifetime. Compared with those disputes of hundreds of millions and billions of dollars, the ownership of a whole Jeju Island is simply too pediatric.
"Mr. Ji, if you don't mind, can this copy be left to me? I must explain that the board of directors uses all its strength to win this lawsuit. I believe that the chairman will be happy to accept your commission." Seeing that Ji Feng wanted to leave, Patner hurriedly said.
"Yes, as long as it is not leaked, then we will see you in a week. I believe your team should be in place in one week." After all, the other party is a world-renowned law firm, and there are still necessary professional ethics. Besides, it is just a copy, and it is useless if the other party takes it away.
"In less than a week, the team will arrive this Friday. I am absolutely confident that the board of directors will send the best lawyer team to help you. Perhaps, you should now find an accounting team, such as a professional investment bank, to help you conduct accurate analysis and judgment." Patner finally kindly reminded Ji Feng.
Ji Feng immediately accepted the other party’s reminder and smiled: “I will go find it next. I believe I can still impress those guys.”
Back in the hotel, Ji Feng took out his laptop and went online and checked UBS's office in the Magic City. However, when Ji Feng called, the other party told him that if he wanted to withdraw his deposit from that year, he would probably have to go to the Swiss headquarters.
Thinking of the bearer bonds and share certificates left by my great-grandfather, Ji Feng decided to go to Europe. Who made the biggest ones there? Especially the government bonds issued by the British government in 1905, which seemed to be worth the money now.
I never took a good look at the things that my great-grandfather left him. Ji Feng took advantage of the time when he had nothing to do and directly flashed into the Dragon Space.
When I arrived in the study, I opened the drawer and found out the valuable bonds and counted them, which was only 10 million yuan. However, this time Ji Feng paid attention and found that there was a key in the bag, which looked very similar to those used in a safe.
After searching around the room I could reach, I found nothing. Suddenly I remembered that there seemed to be an iron box in the space bag. I ran to the hall and Ji Feng reached out to pick it up.
There was a loud "boom". As soon as the iron box came out of the space bag, it suddenly surged to two meters. Ji Feng could not even hold the thousand pounds of force, and such a large size made him not able to take it at all.
Tickling his head and looking at the huge iron lump in front of him, Ji Feng was a little surprised and a little amused. It turned out that this space bag had the ability to reduce things. Wipe it, you have to be careful when taking out the things inside in the future.
Although the iron lump was big, the key hole on it was not big. I tried a slender key in my hand and could indeed be stuffed in. I turned it gently and heard a green sound from Kaba, and a crack appeared on the other side of the iron lump.
Shaking his head, Ji Feng couldn't help but complain about who built such a safe back then. Not to mention, the design was a bit unreasonable. Can such a small key be locked?
However, when Ji Feng walked around one side of the crack and broke it open with his hands, he realized that he had thought it was wrong. There were more than a dozen solid steel columns as thick as female fingers, and there were more than a dozen holes on the other side. He tried hard to stretch out the 20 cm steel column, but it was still motionless.
After pushing open the thick steel door as thick as ten centimeters with some difficulty, Ji Feng was immediately shocked by the golden light flashing inside.
There are five layers inside, and the two bottoms are neatly placed with cast gold bricks, the middle layer is filled with half a layer of shining gems and jewelry, and the top two layers are filled with British government bonds.
"Fuck, how much does this take? Could it be that great-grandfather surrounded the British bonds back then, right?"
I looked at it with some pains, and felt so distressed that I had counted these things. I picked up a stack and looked at it. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as the British bonds in the file bag.
There are dozens of stacks of bonds thirty centimeters high in each layer. Conservatively, there are also 100 million yuan in one stack, which means that at least a few billion yuan is required.
However, Ji Feng was puzzled. It seemed that he had never heard of the British government's issuance that year. There was a 300 million or 50 million yuan that was already worth the most. After all, the money at that time was not as unstoppable as it is now, and the money back then was still quite valuable.
Thinking that I need to collect enough funds as soon as possible, the key is that these bonds are always left, maybe one day the British government will not recognize them, so I have to exchange them quickly.
Although this problem is very puzzled by Ji Feng, since there is this thing, he will not waste it himself.
After going back to the hotel, I went out and bought more than a dozen suitcases, and came back into the space again and sat on the ground. Ji Feng moved it out bit by bit and counted it.
In the past, Ji Feng never thought that one day he would count the money and his hands were cramped, but facing such a large number of bonds, it was not so easy to count them. Although this was not real money, it was more valuable than real money.
As more and more bonds were packed, Ji Feng realized that these bonds were purchased separately before their great-grandfather's death. The earliest one was in 1890 and the latest one was in 1965, which means that it took 75 years.
Moreover, it is not only the UK, but also France, Germany, the United States and Japan and other countries. They even found bonds issued by Chiang Kai-shek, and the amount was not small, with 120 million yuan.
Add more, even if the original value purchased in the year is calculated, these bonds are 2 billion pounds. If they are exchanged now, how many times will it have increased.
However, Ji Feng was skeptical about whether some of the bonds could be exchanged. For example, those of Lao Jiang, probably no one would admit them now.
Ji Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead that was not a little bit, so he didn't plan to go out with the bonds from the Republic of China. He threw the bonds from the Republic of China into the space ring in his hand, stood up and patted his butt and headed towards the market. Ji Feng remembered that there was a stall during the Republic of China that specialized in bonds and currency. He went there to exchange it for British ones. The Republic of China was really unreliable.
Ji Feng exchanged 120 million yuan of bonds for the Republic of China, and after checking the number, he threw it into the ring.
Of course, Ji Feng could also exchange all the bonds for banknotes in the market, but if the billions of cash were taken out, he would probably have a certain impact on world finance.
