I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 655 - 653: They Lack Mental Toughness
"Boss, we've already stabilized the exchange rate and withdrawn all the funds."
Three days later, Zhang Menglong received feedback from Chen Ze's side. The withdrawal was actually not any simpler than smashing the market because in the past two days, when they went solo, it was a move for a move, maintaining a rough balance overall.
Currently, there is nearly a hundred trillion US Dollars hanging in the market. If withdrawn all at once, the currency market would still collapse instantly, so it still needed to be handled slowly.
However, being able to completely stabilize the currency market in three days also demonstrated the strength of these traders.
"Well done, you guys worked hard. How much money did we make this time? Take 10% of it for yourselves!"
"Hehe, boss, I won't be polite then," Chen Ze laughed. By that calculation, each of them would receive hundreds of millions of US Dollars. Wasn't that delightful?
"Boss, what about the remaining funds?"
"Distribute them according to the contribution of each family," Zhang Menglong said with a smile. "Those loyal families should get some reward. I don't need my share, after all, who it belongs to ultimately, it is still mine."
"They will certainly be very grateful for your generous gift," Chen Ze said a few polite words before hanging up the phone.
...
These days, it seemed calm internationally, but behind the scenes, everyone was very anxious.
Given Zhang Menglong's temperament, where was there a time he had been hit without striking back? Even though he was the final winner this time, if he could endure, he wouldn't be called Zhang Menglong. Even a tiger would get annoyed when bitten by an ant, let alone a proud person like Zhang Menglong.
The 89 fools involved had long been prepared to face Zhang Menglong's storm, but three days had passed, and Zhang Menglong seemed to have disappeared. Even if he was busy sorting through the spoils and couldn't think of them momentarily, shouldn't there be some action by now?
Zhang Menglong not only showed no sign of retaliation, but he also hadn't even posted on his friend circle or Weibo. This was outrageous. Could it be that this time Zhang Menglong was that magnanimous?
Or was he afraid that dealing with 89 countries at once would cause a bad international reaction, so he decided to let them off the hook?
Impossible!
They immediately ruled out that possibility. Unless Zhang Menglong had really been kidnapped, even if he didn't make a major earth-shattering move, he would definitely find a way to fiercely shake them down.
To expect Zhang Menglong to forgive and forget? Only if the chicken in "Journey to the West" had eaten up the Mountain of Rice, the dog licked clean the Mountain of Noodles, and fire had broken the chains.
Such a scenario was as absurd as installing a switch on the sun, putting railings on the Yellow River, designing a reverse gear for airplanes, or tiling the Great Wall with ceramics.
A week passed, and Zhang Menglong still made no move.
Those people were not only failing to relax, but they were also becoming even more panicked. They would rather have Zhang Menglong hit them with an atomic bomb now than to suffer such torture. Could the storm not be more intense?
"The president of the largest bank in the Americas, Mr. Podolia, has resigned voluntarily. His attending physician stated that Podolia recently developed a severe mental illness and could no longer continue working!"
"The European Monetary Management Committee's Goldfus resigned yesterday, claiming the job pressure was too great and that he, being advanced in age, could no longer handle such a high load. His duties will be taken over by the Vice President Ritar."
"Today, in the EU countries, three presidents voluntarily resigned, the reasons are unclear, but their aides stated that their sleep quality has been poor lately, and one even fainted in parliament."
...
It might be normal for one or two people to experience such issues, but within a mere week, 17 heads of major banks worldwide had resigned, 22 countries' leaders had significant changes, and even a dozen people developed depression!
This matter was worth pondering. Even on Huaxia's social media, where international affairs are generally not of much concern, it sparked heated discussions.
"Gosh, what's happening lately, so many big shots stepping down, are they all pursuing poetry and distant lands now?"
"I feel there's something off with this whole situation. I don't know the others, but I know that Jinfusi from the European Monetary Management Committee—I saw him on the news last time. Heck, the guy is only 32. At 32, he's telling me he's too old? As if he's really that old!"
"Why do I feel like they must have provoked someone, and are all avoiding something by doing this in such a unified way?"
"The analysis above makes sense but who could be so powerful as to scare so many people at the top of the world's pyramid into becoming like this?"
"Yuan Fang, what do you think?"
"There must be something fishy going on here!"
...
However, the second week, the situation became even more outrageous, and the headlines were one shocking item after another.
"Vice Chairman Rital of the European Monetary Management Committee refuses to accept the position of President, claiming, 'Whoever wants the job can have it, I definitely won't do it!' "
"22 countries held elections for new presidents this week and, based on current registration results, not a single senior official has signed up!"
"Explosive news, an insider claims, once taking on these positions, one will face unknown horrors!"
"Damn, no one's stepping up for president. Maybe I should just sign up!"
"This is so weird, what's this unknown terror about? There is no need to scare them to this extent, right?"
"Now I believe that those who resigned must have really sensed some dangerous aura."

"Menglong, this move of yours is brilliant!" Seeing these news items, Wang Ling immediately knew that Zhang Menglong's "Tathagata Palm" was effective.
Faced with such great provocation, Zhang Menglong had not made any effective retaliation or response for such a long time, they probably fear even going to the bathroom without preparing to run away.
So many people are suffering from depression, mental issues, and even some dream of Zhang Menglong chasing them, imagine the level of psychological pressure?
No wonder those people gave up such high positions. When it comes time to clean up the mess, whoever loves it can deal with it! Anyway, they skedaddled first, and even if the country falls, they can pretend it has nothing to do with them.
"You say their mental strength is that poor?" Zhang Menglong also laughed at the news, surprised by his own deterrent power. Today, even more than a dozen countries conducted military exercises as if to tell him not to come over.
"I bet these days when those people close their eyes, all they see is your face."
"That is indeed an honor," Zhang Menglong rolled his eyes, "but I hope they would be a bit tougher inside. Otherwise, when I retaliate later, it'll all be new faces. Even if I end up killing them, there will be half the pleasure lost."
"Boy, you're almost more terrifying than nuclear deterrence, to scare half the world like this. I don't think there's a second person in the world who can do it. I'm just waiting eagerly to watch the show now."
"By the way, how much money have you gathered?" Zhang Menglong asked.
"I've pulled every string I can, and I've raised 120 billion US dollars. I'll transfer it to you in a bit, just send me an account."
"To be honest, whether you have this money or not seems to make no big difference!"
"Screw you, I've stretched my face thin for this. If you can't make a double for me, I'll come to your house every day to freeload!"
"Hahaha, don't worry," Zhang Menglong laughed. 120 billion US dollars may not be enough to handle those developed countries, but it's certainly enough to sort out the smaller ones, "if we don't make it to double, I'll rob 2400 billion US dollars for you!"
