Life at The Top novel Chapter 1985

Sanctions!

Soros felt a chill in his heart.

He understood the meaning of the sanctions that came from the mouth of his Excellency on the phone.

This meant that a country’s government would be giving the highest form of punishment against an individual, enterprise, a force, or an interest group in other countries.

It could completely and legally freeze all the assets of Jasper and JW Foundation in the United States.

Once someone did that, it was not the

same as merely falling out with Jasper.

Most of the money in the JW Foundation had been collected from businessmen of Somer descent. Once all of them were frozen, Jasper would be finished, but this would definitely trigger Somerland’s crazy revenge.

This was because it meant that after more than ten years of reform and opening up i n Somerland, the elite class that made something for themselves through blood, sweat, and tears was being ransacked and being forced into bankruptcy overnight. Its negative impact on the entire social and economy of Somerland would be beyond words.

Soros felt fear and trepidation in his heart.

If it was half a month ago, he would not

have cared at all.

However, after causing chaos the financial market of Somerland for half a month, he had begun to understand that h e and even the United States had been facing a country that was as profound as Somerland.

Everything that was easily obtainable in his original plans did not make much progress after half a month of torment, especially in the grain price trade war. As long as they bought, Somerland’s domestic reserves group would ship. They would hedge it no matter how much it was, and this almost made Soros vomit blood.

Soros parted his mouth slightly to try to

persuade the person on the phone, but he

came to his senses immediately. Wasn’t

the thing he wanted to see the most was

Jasper being rid of?

In that case, why should he object?

Thus, Soros’s words became, “Okay, I understand, Your Excellency. I will show you the results on the next trading day.”

“Very good.”

The person on the other end of the phone said lightly, “In terms of international influence, Somerland’s domestic financial market does not account for much. Relatively speaking, its Harbor Stock has more influence and is gaining more attention.

“It’s only been a few years since the handover of Harbor City. If the Harbor stock market collapses at this time, then the whole world, including the people of Harbor City, will doubt Somerland’s ability and national strength, and it is possible that some of the people of Harbor City will begin to miss being under the rule of the United Kingdom. In those days, at the very least, Harbor stocks wouldn’t fall so badly, don’t you think?”

Soros immediately understood the meaning of these words upon hearing them.

His eyes lit up involuntarily.

How glorious he was when he caused the Terra financial crisis, but he had a big downfall in the Harbor stock market and wasted all of his effort as most of his life’s prestige was ruined by this small island.

It was impossible to say that he did not want to take revenge.

And now, he had a chance.

Now was the best time… Most of the top tycoons in Harbor City had fled and the remaining few had been drained by Jasper such that right now, they were at their weakest.

“Your Excellency, are there any restrictions on the attacks on Harbor stocks?” Soros asked.

The person on the other end of the phone said lightly, “What we want to see is only the final result. As for how you do it and what price you pay, it doesn’t matter.”

“I got it.”

Soros breathed a sigh of relief, smiled,
