Chapter 354 Antique Mortgage Financial Investment

After talking with Andy about company matters, Andy said goodbye and left. Hardy felt relieved to have Andy looking after the company.

After leaving the study, the butler told Hardy that Elaine was here, and Hardy came to his room.

When Hardy opened the door, he saw a perfect body. The woman was tall and slender with a curvy figure. The only thing covering her body was the necklace around her neck.

Elena walked barefoot to Hardy and said, "I'm not wearing the right dress. Do you think this looks good?"

“Very beautiful.”

Iliana put her hands around Hardy's neck and crossed her long legs over him. Hardy carried the woman into the bathroom.

After spring flowers bloom.

Elaina lay in Hardy's arms and talked about the situation on TV. This year's "Super Idol" was still as popular as ever, while the other two TV stations continued to be crushed. Christmas was coming soon, and the finals would be held on Christmas Eve.

Elaina also told Hardy what new programs had been launched this year, what new TV series had been filmed, and what the ratings were. By chatting with Hardy, he got a complete picture of the TV station's situation.

......

Taylor was the last to know that Hardy had returned.

Who called her the youngest?

Hardy drove to Taylor's house and rang the doorbell. When Taylor's mother saw Hardy, she excitedly greeted him, "Ah~~ It's Baron Hardy."

Isa is British and has an innate respect for the nobility. Now that Hardy is a British baron and the governor of Cayman, his status in Isa's heart is even higher.

"Is Taylor here?" Hardy asked.

"Yes, I'll go call her."

Isa hurried upstairs, and when Taylor heard that Hardy came to see her, she ran downstairs in surprise. Hardy was sitting on the sofa in the living room. Taylor threw himself on Hardy, put his legs on Hardy's legs, put his arms around Hardy's neck and kissed him.

This is Taylor's home.

Mrs. Isa saw this scene upstairs and smiled. She thought her daughter was so lucky to find someone like Mr. Hardy.

She did not go downstairs, not daring to disturb what was happening below.

What?

My daughter was taken advantage of.

That depends on who it is.

When Hardy wanted to take Taylor out, Issa readily agreed, "Have fun and don't worry about the time."

Holding Taylor's hand and going outside, Taylor saw a yellow Rolls-Royce convertible. Hardy opened the driver's door and signaled to Taylor.

"This is a Christmas gift for you. Now it's yours, open it," Hardy said with a smile.

Taylor loves this car.

rolls-royce.

Still her favorite yellow.

Taylor was almost 18 years old and had already learned to drive. He jumped into the driver's seat and Hardy got in the passenger seat. Taylor started the car and the sports car roared away.

The climate in Los Angeles is just great. Even though it's almost Christmas, the temperature is still over 20 degrees. The car is driving very fast, and the wind blowing on the face makes Taylor feel very comfortable.

She likes this feeling of freedom.

"Where are we going?" Taylor asked Hardy.

"It's your car, you decide," said Hardy.

Taylor thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go to Las Vegas? Nowadays, many people go to Las Vegas as a weekend destination."

"OK."

Taylor drove onto Highway 15 and headed towards Las Vegas. He could do whatever he wanted. This was the feeling of freedom.

Margaret will never experience this feeling. Although Taylor is not a princess, she is a hundred times luckier than Margaret.

After driving two hundred kilometers, Taylor finally got tired and refueled at a gas station along the way, then Hardy took over the driving.

"Is the movie Beauty and the Beast ready? When will it be released?" Hardy asked Taylor, who was still excited.

"It's not finished yet, mainly because the animation is coming out too slowly. The director said it might not be released until February, but it just so happens that my birthday is in February," Taylor said with a smile.

Hardy thought about it.

"Then let's release it on your birthday. I'll also have them write in the title sequence, 'Today is Taylor's birthday' so that the whole world can celebrate for you, how about that?" Hardy said.

"Really? I like this idea." Taylor hugged Hardy happily.

After a five-hour drive, the two drove to Las Vegas and drove directly to Hardy's Hotel. The person in charge was notified that Hardy was coming and hurried out to greet the boss.

Hardy took Taylor to the casino to gamble on slot machines and had a great time. At night, the two stayed in a hotel.

Taylor, wearing a camisole, hugged Hardy and whispered, "I'm going to be 18 soon. I'm really looking forward to it."

“I’m looking forward to it, too.”

In fact, the current secular rules can no longer restrain Hardy. The reason why he did not touch Taylor was not for the so-called morality, but because he felt that this feeling of expectation gave people a different kind of excitement.

the next day.

Taylor and Hardy just returned to Los Angeles. Taylor's mother had no objection to her daughter not coming home all night, and she was even happy about it.

Christmas is coming,

Monroe, who was originally filming "Some Like It Hot" in New York, returned to Los Angeles on vacation. Hardy stroked Monroe's hair and said with a smile: "Do you know that you are now famous in Japan? You are the most beautiful American woman in the hearts of the Japanese."

"What about in your heart?" Menglu looked up at Hardy.

"Of course." Hardy said with a smile.

Hardy never hesitates to tell women lies like this. He can say "You are the most beautiful" to any woman.

Some words need a prefix.

"This moment."

......

Japan.

Two new companies opened.

One was called American Antique Mortgage Finance Company and the other was called American Gold House Finance Company.

Both companies are registered in the Cayman Islands.

The registrant is unknown.

The business of the Antique Mortgage Finance Company is to accept antique mortgages. After appraisal by the company's professional appraisers, your antiques can be mortgaged to the bank, and the company will use the money from your mortgage to help you invest.

The company also promised that the annual profit margin will not be lower than 10% and can reach more than 20%.

The nature of Gold House Financial Company is similar to that of an antique mortgage company. You can pledge your gold as collateral, and then the company will use the money to help you invest and make a profit.

During World War II,

How many cultural relics did Japan loot from China?

According to incomplete statistics, the number may exceed 3.6 million.

How much gold was looted?

It is said to be over 6,000 tons.

......

These two companies began to advertise like crazy in newspapers, with Japan's Asahi Shimbun using an entire page to promote the news.

"American Antique Mortgage Finance is a very powerful financial investment company with tens of millions of dollars in assets and hundreds of thousands of customers. Last year, its annualized interest rate exceeded 30%, making a lot of money for its customers."

"The main investment direction is the US financial market, including stocks, futures, bonds, etc. We have the most professional team, and a team of US financial experts analyzes the trend of stock market and futures."

"Many customers want to invest, but they don't have the capital. What can they do? American Antique Mortgage Finance Company can help you solve this problem. Maybe you have some valuable antiques at home. These things are useless to you. Why not mortgage them to our company and let them become your money-making tool?"

"The operation method is very simple. Bring your antique to our company for appraisal. We have professional appraisers who will determine the price after appraisal. We will mortgage the antique to a bank for you. With the money obtained from the mortgage, our company will start operating directly in the United States and enter the stock market to help you make money."

"The bank that our company cooperates with is Wells Fargo, one of the top three banks in the United States. Its credibility is beyond doubt."

"The recent U.S. stock market has seen a crazy surge in many stocks. Many of the top stocks have increased by more than 10 times. If you want to increase your assets dramatically, why not mortgage your useless antiques? Not only will you make money, but these antiques will still belong to you."

"In addition, the company will maintain complete confidentiality for its customers and will not disclose any information about the collateral to the outside world."

"Industrial Economic News" also did a gg on the American Golden House Financial Company, and the content was similar to antique mortgage.

The company accepts gold as collateral, borrows money from regular banks, and helps customers invest and make profits. The gold still belongs to you, it is just used as collateral, and you can redeem it when you make money.

Next was ABC TV station, which also broadcast a recorded GG. In the footage, the two companies had their own buildings in the United States and looked very powerful. The internal staff of the company followed standard procedures, and some people put a price on the antiques and preserved them in a treasure house.

The investment and finance team, all dressed in suits and ties, looking like successful people, were sitting in an office in a New York building for a meeting.

The scene inside the Wall Street stock and futures trading center is bustling and noisy. With shouts, stocks are rising continuously. The recent years have been the best golden years for the U.S. stock market. To be honest, you can make money by buying anything, which makes fraud much easier.

When prosperity comes, everyone will be excited.

After continuous coverage in newspapers and on television, many people were attracted.

Some Japanese nobles have a large number of cultural relics in their homes, especially Chinese cultural relics. Japan itself does not have any cultural relics to show off.

Nowadays, these cultural relics and antiques are just gathering dust in the warehouse and are of no use to them. Now that there is suddenly an opportunity to make money with antiques, why not give it a try.

Although the Japanese now hate Americans, they recognize the strength of the United States, especially in finance.

Japanese newspapers also frequently report on the U.S. economic situation. In the past two years, the U.S. economy has entered a period of rapid growth, and the stock market has created a series of wealth miracles.

People think it is normal for a stock to grow by 30 to 50 percent every year.

Fuchuan came to the Antique Mortgage Finance Company with a tentative heart. The receptionist of the company was a blonde foreign girl with blue eyes, which was very intimidating.

The business manager who received him was also a foreigner. He asked in half-baked Japanese: "What can I do for you, sir?"

"I have a batch of antiques and I'd like to know how to pawn them?" Fuchuan said.

The business manager received him.

"If you have a small amount of goods, please bring them to our company. We have professional appraisers who will first determine their authenticity and then make an estimate of the price. If you agree with the price, we will help you mortgage them to a bank, and then the mortgage money can be used for your investment." The business manager introduced.

"I have a lot of things, probably thousands of items." Fuchuan said with a hint of pride in his tone.

"No problem. We can come to your home to appraise the antiques and take them away as collateral to the bank after negotiation," said the manager.

The house of Tomikawa's family is very big, and it is obvious that they are a wealthy family. His father was a member of the Japanese army that invaded China and later died of illness. During his time in China, Tomikawa's father used some means to obtain thousands of Chinese antiques.

This time there were two American appraisers and two Hong Kong appraisers, and the business manager also brought several foreign security guards with guns.

Everything is so normal.

When Fuchuan saw so many Americans, he was more convinced of this company. It was obvious at first glance that it was a very strong company.

He didn't know that there were also scammers in the United States.

All the items that Fuchuan brought out were Chinese antiques, with the largest types being porcelain and bronze, as well as calligraphy and paintings, ancient books, Buddha statues, and jade.

In fact, the price of Chinese antiques is not high in the international market nowadays, but there are many things in Fuchuan, and after appraising and pricing them one by one, the final offer was still a very high number, 160,000 US dollars, equivalent to 58 million yen.

"The agreement we signed with the bank is that you can get 70% of the estimated value by mortgaging the antiques, so you can get $112,000. What do you think, Mr. Fuchuan?" asked the business manager.

Fuchuan thought it was okay, since he wasn't going to sell them anyway. He could use the mortgage money to invest and make money. The antiques still belonged to him and he also made money.

"Since you agree, please take a look at these two contracts. If there are no mistakes, please sign them. Then I will send someone to take these antiques to the bank to go through the mortgage procedures. Once everything is done, you can just stay at home and wait to make money." said the business manager.

The two agreements include a mortgage agreement and an investment agreement.

Fuchuan signed happily.

The financial company brought Fuchuan to Wells Fargo Bank and completed the mortgage procedures in front of him. After both parties confirmed that everything was correct, the mortgage was officially completed.

The business manager said to Tokawa, "You have to know that financial supervision is very strict. The advantage of using a US bank is that the money does not need to come to Japan, but can be invested directly in the United States, saving a lot of trouble and circumventing supervision. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone."

At this point, the sales manager smiled and said, "Mr. Fuchuan, from now on, you just stay at home and wait to make money. Do you know what our investment manager's performance was last year? He made more than 50%, which means you may have a profit of 60,000 US dollars next year."

“Of course, we’ll charge you 5% of your profit as a fee.”

Fuchuan felt that it was justified.

Pawning some useless antiques that can only be put away can bring me huge profits, and I can live a wealthy life in the future. This relaxed and pleasant feeling is simply too comfortable.

The Antique Mortgage Finance Company's step of mortgaging antiques to banks is absolutely legal and compliant. No one can find any fault with this, and even if it brings a lawsuit to Wells Fargo Bank in the future, it will not lose.

This financial company will indeed invest this money in the stock market. As for the stocks it buys, they are some stocks that Hardy is optimistic about, and some are even invested directly into its own company.

This step is still legal.

The U.S. stock market is in a very good trend right now, so he would not be foolish enough to try some Ponzi scheme. It is actually very stupid to tear down the east wall to repair the west wall. A cheating creature like Hardy would never use such means.

So how do we end this situation?

hehe,

It's actually very simple.

Set up a business, such as a pharmaceutical company, and say that they have developed a new drug, then put all the funds into it, push up the stock price crazily, then suck away the funds, and finally collapse. In this way, all the money will go into Hardy's pocket, and these investment companies will lose all their money.

As for antiques.

Sorry, it has been mortgaged to the bank, and the agreement states that if the contract is not renewed within two years, it will become the property of the bank.

The bank's mortgage agreement was signed with that financial company, and the financial company went bankrupt and ran away, so it is impossible for you to get your antiques back.

All operations are legal, and even if someone sues, they will not win.

As for when the thunder will burst.

That depends on how many antiques Hardy can absorb to satisfy him.

The situation is almost the same for the Golden House Financial Company, where funds can enter the pharmaceutical company's funding pool at the same time.
