The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 7002

Three years of calculating compound interest could lead to nearly 780 million US dollars in interest!

The Mitsui family is a major player in global investments. They can easily spend 5 billion US dollars and use that money to earn over 10% in income each year.

If what Charlie Wade says is true, then the Mitsui family would have to give up at least 780 million dollars in interest. This would mean they would owe Charlie Wade a total of 780 million dollars over the next three years.

This is assuming everything goes smoothly. If things go wrong, they could even lose the entire 5 billion principal.

Mitsui Yoshitaka felt overwhelmed. As a businessman, he was focused on profits. When he saw an opportunity, he wanted to make the most of it. When he faced a potential loss, he wanted to minimize it.

To him, Charlie Wade’s request for a deposit felt like a loss. However, he knew he couldn’t refuse Charlie Wade, so he needed to find a way to reduce his losses.

He said to Charlie Wade, “Mr. Ye, the Mitsui family is well-respected and strong in Tokyo, so you can trust me. I will handle this matter perfectly…”

Charlie Wade nodded and replied casually, “I know, and I trust you. As long as you can ensure there are no problems in three years, I will return the full deposit to you.”

Then, Charlie Wade asked, “Do you think this deposit is too much for you to handle?”

Mitsui Yoshitaka was taken aback. He didn’t expect Charlie Wade to directly address his concerns. He did feel that the deposit was quite large…

The deposit is too high, but…

Why did Charlie Wade add that last sentence? Could he really not handle it?

Isn’t he just making fun of himself?

How could he, the respected head of the Mitsui family, not afford a guarantee of $5 billion?

It felt like he was forcing himself to accept this.

Just when he was unsure how to respond, Charlie Wade said, “Alright, Mr. Mitsui, I will only take your deposit for now. I haven’t even thought about saving your family yet. If you keep hesitating, let’s do the math. Based on your worth, I saved your life. Do you want to thank me with one billion or two billion dollars?”

“Wait, what?” Mitsui Yoshitaka was stunned. He thought, “Is there anyone like you? Asking for a thank you fee of over a billion dollars as soon as we start? Do you really think I’m a money printing machine? You want that much money, you better be ready to work for it!”

Knowing things were getting serious, Mitsui Yoshitaka realized that the best option was to agree to the deposit. If this continued, and Charlie Wade wanted both a deposit and a thank you fee, it would be a disaster.

He thought to himself, “I could also be bold and ask him, ‘Why should I owe you anything? I didn’t ask for your help. You decided to save me on your own. Why should I give you money?’”
