Chapter 194:
Lynch had originally planned to stay in Bupayne for a week but ended up staying for eleven days. On the way back, he sighed in relief. The gains from this trip to Bupayne far exceeded his expectations.
The gains were not about getting to know Herbert and other bond holders, especially not Herbert. Such "ruthless" capitalists, given enough profit, would sell everyone out without a second thought.
Lynch had heard some rumors about Herbert from others. This suave gentleman had an infamous nickname—The Dream Shredder.
Any company he targeted was unlikely to escape dismemberment.
In recent years, the overall decline in the real economy hadn't given him many opportunities to showcase his abilities, making him less renowned than before. But it was definitely not due to him becoming any less ruthless, just that the returns didn't meet his standards.
People like him were often cold-blooded, indifferent, and calm. They viewed all matters objectively, including those that concerned themselves, and then chose the most beneficial option.
Don't expect emotions or minor alliances to bind him; he simply wanted to exploit the people around him.
Lynch's real gain was the inspiration he got from the small print company owner, learning that bonds could be transformed into cash. This method of security was very appealing to a speculator like Lynch.
However, he did not fully trust the small business owner. He planned to verify it through other means.
