After Rogers said that, the atmosphere in the conference room became more relaxed and casual.
“Rogers, it took you 2 days to deal with a Somerland businessman who is younger than your son. It really makes me regret it. I think even the interns from our investment bank would have been able to do it in 3 days if I asked them to do so. Hahaha!” Dugg laughed.
Rogers shrugged and said, “After all, Mr. Hamilton said we can’t take the enemy too lightly.”
The meeting lasted about two hours. About half an hour after the meeting ended, the Federal Reserve put out a new announcement.
There was not much content to it, but they listed a new rule.
The translation meant that personal or institutional funds from Somerland were not allowed to exceed 100 million US Dollars in offshore quotas for the next 3 months.
This announcement caused a stir within the public. Any normal person could tell that the Federal Reserve was directly provoking Somerland.
International outcry aside, the news immediately spread to Somerland.
Heaven City was the satellite city of Swallow Capital. A lot of the big shots from Swallow Capital loved to buy property around here for holidays or for their mistresses. Even though the air quality here was not that great, it was more peaceful than Swallow Capital.
In this city was a house with a long history going back to the 1300s. Its archaic and vintage design was unable to conceal its former glory.
On the contrary, because of the markings of time, everything here was rich with history. What a nation accumulated over time was culture and treasure.
This house now belonged to an individual.
Normally, this kind of building that was also a cultural relic would have been unlikely to belong to an individual, but as everyone knew, there were always some exceptions.
At the corner of the entrance, two old men were squatting on the ground playing chess with their hands in their pockets.
The old man was an ordinary old man and the chessboard was just an ordinary chessboard. Nothing was out of the ordinary about them.
