Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon
Chapter 258 When in doubt, consult Fifth Master
What Meng Chuan didn't know was that he had ultimately been tricked by Ollie.
The British authorities did indeed trace it back to Meng Chuan.
The original plan was to target Meng Chuan directly.
After all, if you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext.
If the higher-ups want to control Meng Chuan, they can easily fabricate a charge to destroy him.
However, all the funds in Meng Chuan's account came from Aoli.
Whether it was the initial £100 billion or the later additional £200 billion.
All of it was transferred to Meng Chuan by Aoli through various means.
Therefore, there was a misunderstanding above.
They thought that Ollie was using Meng Chuan to short-sell 02 Company's stock.
Meng Chuan was merely a puppet of Ollie; Ollie was the actual controller.
After all, this kind of thing is not uncommon among some top conglomerates.
Therefore, they did not take action against Meng Chuan, but they did warn Ollie.
They also demanded that Ollie cover the losses and that he fully acquire 02 Company.
However, all the businesses owned by the Warburg family, controlled by Ollie, are primarily financial.
They are not good at running a physical company.
They have even less interest in running a physical company.
Therefore, Aoli used a trick to impose all the requirements that the higher-ups had for him onto Meng Chuan.
Anyway, Meng Chuan did make money.
It is indeed true that Meng Chuan is shorting the stock of Company 02.
This was all Meng Chuan's fault, and it's perfectly reasonable for Aoli to make Meng Chuan take the blame.
Therefore, at this moment, Ollie was in an extremely happy mood at Warburg Manor.
He had been quite infuriated by Meng Chuan before, but now he had finally turned the tables.
"No, we can't let ourselves be taken advantage of like this."
At this moment, in Meng Chuan's dormitory, Meng Chuan paced back and forth.
80 billion has already been spent.
It might cost even more tomorrow.
Most importantly, they bought 02 Company, which was a significant investment.
He might lose all the money he made in the stock market.
Why did he come here?
Since his rebirth, Meng Chuan has never suffered such a great loss!
"Actually, Company 02 has good potential, and you could make a lot of money if you bought it."
Yingdie looked at Meng Chuan pacing back and forth in the dormitory and advised him.
Shadow Butterfly is not just an assassin; she is also an international talent.
She grew up abroad and has traveled to many countries to carry out missions.
Although she didn't know much about Company 02.
But at least I've heard of it.
I also know that Company 02 is a communications company that controls most of the Oulean alliance.
With proper management, it's actually possible to make money.
"Where would I find the talent for this? I can't just go and manage it myself, can I?"
Meng Chuan said with a wry smile.
For many people, Company 02 is a highly sought-after company.
Otherwise, the Li family wouldn't have been willing to sell almost all of their domestic assets to go and buy 02.
But Meng Chuan didn't have the same abilities as the Li family.
He doesn't know how to run a company, and he lacks the talent for management.
He can't just buy it and then let Company 02 fend for itself, can he?
"Actually, you can discuss it with Fifth Master. He still has quite a few capable people under his command."
"That's what Yingdie said."
"What? Fifth Master's influence extends all the way to England?"
Meng Chuan stared at Ying Die in shock.
Meng Chuan knew that Fifth Master had a lot of influence.
However, this is limited to Shanghai.
Perhaps in Shanghai, not many people dare to ignore Fifth Master.
Fifth Master was also an absolutely transcendent being.
But that's Britain!
Fifth Master has such great power?
"Actually, Fifth Master's real power is overseas. He just wants to return to his roots and enjoy his old age in Shanghai."
Yingdie glanced at the thumb ring on Meng Chuan's thumb, and carefully considered her words before speaking.
There were some things she couldn't explain to Meng Chuan in detail.
Because Fifth Master gave the order.
However, Yingdie firmly believes in one thing:
If you're ever unsure what to do, just ask Fifth Master; you can't go wrong.
"Let's go to Blackman's Bar!"
Meng Chuan hesitated for a moment before speaking.
For Meng Chuan, Company 02 is now a complete mess.
It's already stuck in my hands.
He felt uneasy if he didn't resolve the issue quickly.
"Go find Fifth Master now? He'll yell at us."
Yingdie glanced at the time, her expression changing.
It's already one o'clock in the morning.
Going to Fifth Master at this time would only invite a scolding; there's no other possibility.
"Go ahead and curse, let's go, drive."
Meng Chuan said firmly.
He won't be able to sleep tonight until this matter is resolved today.
That's over 10 billion!
"I'll only take you downstairs, I won't go up."
Yingdie got up and went to drive.
Shadow butterflies have little to fear.
She wasn't afraid of death.
But she was afraid of Fifth Master, and she would never go upstairs tonight, no matter what.
Meng Chuan nodded indifferently.
Soon, Yingdie drove Meng Chuan to the Blackman Bar.
Before getting out of the car, Meng Chuan called Fifth Master.
But no one answered the phone.
Meng Chuan ignored it and went straight upstairs.
Upon reaching the top floor of the Blackman Bar, one finds numerous bodyguards dressed in black suits and sunglasses standing even in the corridors.
However, no one stopped Meng Chuan from arriving.
They acted as if they didn't see Meng Chuan at all.
Meng Chuan pushed open the door and went straight in.
The door closed automatically.
This was his third time coming here to see Fifth Master.
Just as Meng Chuan was about to call him Fifth Master.
An old man with a frail face and an unfriendly expression suddenly appeared behind Meng Chuan.
The voice was somewhat chilling as it spoke:
"Fifth Master has already gone to bed. Unless it's something particularly important, you can go back now!"
Meng Chuan was startled.
Meng Chuan recognized him as the old man who had always been by Fifth Master's side.
This old man is definitely a master.
Moreover, he possessed a faint, yet unmistakable, aura of malevolence.
Even Meng Chuan felt immense pressure in his presence.
It's actually Meng Chuan.
Even if it were something extremely important, an ordinary person wouldn't come here.
Even now that he's here, the old man will never give Meng Chuan a chance to speak.
The old man would just throw them out.
"Hello, sir, this is a very serious matter. I was swindled out of a lot of money in the UK."
Meng Chuan still bowed to the old man with considerable respect.
"If you're here for the money, go back!"
The old man said it almost without thinking.
Then he turned around and was about to leave.
In the old man's eyes, money was no different from dirt.
"It's tens of billions of pounds."
Meng Chuan said urgently.
The old man stumbled as he took his first step, almost falling over.
"How much... how much?"
The old man's face changed.
Although he regarded money as dirt.
But quantitative change can lead to qualitative change, and dung becomes fertile soil.
“My investments in the UK have been manipulated, resulting in losses of no less than £100 billion, and possibly more.”
Meng Chuan told the truth.
With both guarantees and purchases required, 100 billion yuan is definitely not enough to cover this expense.
Otherwise, Meng Chuan wouldn't be in such a hurry.
"Wait here, I'll go get Fifth Master."
The old man quickened his pace.
Meng Chuan was sitting in his office when, just ten minutes later, Fifth Master, wearing a cloak and with a sullen face, walked up to him.
"You're as shrewd as a fox, how could you let someone swindle so much money from you?"
Fifth Master looked very unwell.
The old man followed behind Fifth Master and quickly made him a cup of hot tea.
In Fifth Master's memory, Meng Chuan was indeed very shrewd.
When he initially wanted to invest in Meng Chuan's Meng Po Guild, he didn't gain much advantage over Meng Chuan.
However, the Meng Po Guild is developing quite well, which is beyond Fifth Master's expectations.
He has already recouped his initial investment of 500 million yuan.
"I didn't expect this either! I've really messed up this time."
Meng Chuan said with a wry smile.
"What exactly happened? And how did you get so much money? Tell me the whole story."
