Chapter 998: Financial Turmoil (2)

An Yi, Lao Shoudao, He Jing, Zhou Chong'an, Lu Qijian, Wu Zhefu and others were discussing how to profit from this financial turmoil caused by the rise in silver prices, Shen Fengdao quietly walked into the conference room, approached An Yi's ear and said: "Huang Shaohong is visiting, he has chartered a painting boat in Chengbi Lake and invited the commander to talk about it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

An Yi was a little strange, didn't Huang Shaohong go to North China to appease the Mongolian princes and reform the Mongolian administrative system on behalf of the central government? In the past few days, I have kept reading in the newspapers that he met with the representatives of the Mongolian people, listened to their autonomy plan, met with Suiyuan, Chahar and other Mongolian governors in Zhangjiakou, and met with King De and King Yun at the Bailing Temple.

An Yi thought about it, asked Zhou Chongan to continue to preside over the discussion, got up and apologized to everyone, and walked out of the conference room after walking downstairs quickly, and when he came outside, he saw Huang Shaohong's adjutant Chen Yinan standing next to the car, chatting with Xiao Jiu.

An Yi didn't expect Lin Yaodong to come back so soon, he greeted Chen Yinan with a smile, and then turned to Lin Yaodong: "It's a big holiday, and I don't know if it's good to stay at home for a few more days, and accompany my parents and siblings." ”

Lin Yaodong scratched his head: "I've been by your side for a long time, but I'm not used to it when I get home, and after a few days of doing nothing to visit relatives and friends, my parents urged me to go on a blind date, I really couldn't hold on, so I simply sent a telegram asking the Air Force Command to send a plane to Guangzhou to pick me up." I just came back this afternoon, and I knew that you were in the garrison brigade, so I rushed over, and I didn't want to run into Adjutant Chen when I entered the door. ”

"Haha, it turned out that he came to hide by my side, but you should understand the mood of the old man, you are now a dignified ** major general, and the person who wants to say goodbye has broken through the threshold of your family......" An Yi said this, and suddenly remembered something: "Did you pay New Year's greetings to the old patriarch for me?" ”

Xiao Jiu was embarrassed to talk about him, and when he heard An Yi's question, he just took the opportunity to change the topic: "When I got home, I went to pay New Year's greetings to the old patriarch, conveyed your greetings to him, gave you gifts and kowtowed to him on your behalf, the old patriarch was so moved that tears flowed out, saying that it was a pity that he didn't insist on marrying his two granddaughters to you back then, and said that it was not too late, Xiaoran and Xiaotong are not yet twenty-four years old this year, if you want, he doesn't mind giving you two granddaughters to be young." ”

When An Yi heard that such a thing was pulled out, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and hurriedly asked Chen Yinan, who was looking at him with a smile, how did he find himself?

Chen Yinan explained: "I didn't find you at the camp officers' guest house, General Ji Kuan took me to the Jiangnan Hotel again, and quietly asked the hotel manager Mr. Xu, he said that you might go back to Lao Nanchang, so he rushed over again, and after confirming, he first went to rent a painting boat and prepared wine and food, and then asked me to come and pick up the general." ”

"So what are we waiting for? Let's go! ”

An Yi opened the car door and got in first, Shen Fengdao patted Lin Yaodong's shoulder with an ambiguous expression, and followed into the car, Lin Yaodong shrugged, approached the car window and said:

"I'm not going, I'm going to take a shower and rest, and then I'll go to the Don West restaurant, meet Katerina, and I'll bring her some gifts."

An Yi waved his hand: "Look at your uncertain appearance to know what you are thinking, go ahead." ”

Seeing Lin Yaodong running upstairs, An Yi shook his head and smiled dumbly, and said to Shen Fengdao, "Xiao Jiu Sichun." Shen Fengdao agreed.

Chen Yinan returned to the passenger seat, motioned for the driver to drive, and soon came to an antique painting boat on the shore of Chengbi Lake, where Huang Shaohong was already smiling and waiting on the shore.

……

In Los Angeles, USA, in the dead of night, the huge city was plunged into darkness, and only the headquarters building of the China Youth Society was brightly lit.

Ma Zhiyuan looked around at the participants and said with satisfaction: "After continuous counting, our current silver inventory is basically clear, and this financial defense line that has been built intentionally or unintentionally since three years ago can finally play a role." Since the economic crisis, the price of silver has been depressed, and by 32 years it had fallen to an unprecedented 23 cents per ounce, the entire white banking industry was wailing, and many silver miners went bankrupt, and we took this opportunity to acquire dozens of large and medium-sized silver mines in North and Central America, South America and Oceania, and quietly, have in fact controlled about 30% of the world's silver production. In the beginning, we were in a state of loss, but since the United Kingdom, Japan, India and other countries have abandoned the gold standard in 31 years, and the United States has abandoned the gold standard last year, the price of silver has gradually risen, and it has basically turned a profit, and a large amount of silver has been stored by us in order to cope with today's crisis.

"In the afternoon, the commander sent us a telegram from China, asking us to report our family background, and now we can reply: Check that the silver reserves of our group are as high as 439.72 million ounces, and according to the current calculation of 35 cents per ounce, the total is about 150 million US dollars, which can completely cope with the damage caused by the rise in silver prices in a short period of time, and at the same time, we can also take the opportunity of the increase in the price of silver dollars to make a big profit."

Ma Zhiyuan saw the clerk taking the order, and turned to Lin Xudong beside him: "Fourth brother, since everyone is here, let's just hold an economic meeting, summarize the gains and losses of the past year, and then make an outlook for future work?" ”

Lin Xudong nodded: "In the past year, the United States has undergone earth-shaking changes, with President Franklin taking office, the economic situation has improved rapidly, and the enterprises under our name have also developed rapidly. On weekdays, everyone is busy with work and can't get together, so take advantage of this rare opportunity today to talk! ”

The conference room was buzzing, and everyone was talking in whispers. Lin Xudong saw that no one was willing to speak first, so he began to roll out names.

The first to speak was the managing director of the Bank of Canada, a young twenty-five-year-old French Jew, Sonny Brown. Chai Man, his fluent Chinese, made Lin Xudong and Ma Zhiyuan look at each other and smile.

Sonny. Chai Man is a masterpiece of the Huaqing Society's unintentional willows. Twelve years ago, the French family moved to Portugal to learn financial knowledge and counterfeit money manufacturing techniques under Alves dos Reis, and printed 100 million Portuguese escudos with his teacher. After the "counterfeit money case", Sonny absconded to the United States, and then went to Los Angeles, penniless and dying, was taken in by Ma Zhiyuan and quickly discovered the amazing financial talent contained in his body, and grew into a genius financial trader, last year the Bank of Canada passed the federal government audit, obtained the license to operate financial business, the banking business developed rapidly, the original general manager has been unable to deal with more and more affairs, and the operation is a mess, so Sonny was temporarily put up, and did it in an orderly manner, was finally appointed as the official general manager, and won the trust of Lin Xudong and Ma Zhiyuan.

"I have to admit that President Roosevelt was indeed an economic genius, and since he took office, he has conformed to the will of the broad masses of the people and vigorously implemented a series of policy measures aimed at overcoming the crisis, especially on the 10th of last month, he announced the issuance of $3 billion in banknotes guaranteed by state securities, which made the government have more money and at the same time, prompted the dollar to depreciate by 40.94 percent, and greatly strengthened the competitiveness of US commodities in foreign countries. Thanks to these measures, and with the abundant reserves of gold and silver as a guarantee, our bank has expanded rapidly, and now has branches in all states and territories of the United States, as well as offices in Europe, South America and Asia, and a large global financial entity is being realized. "Sonny. Chai Man talked eloquently.

Lin Xudong nodded with satisfaction, he didn't ask the bank about the specific amount of deposits and loans, because there is a special unit within the Huaqing Society to supervise this area, the possibility of error is very small, so his eyes are directly on the next person.

The second speaker was Lin Xiaotong, the general manager of Meiya Media, who was spun off from the Fox Group and re-established, and she said confidently at the age of 23 and with a compelling appearance:

"In addition to the acquisition of three Hollywood studios to integrate into one of the best in the United States, we also responded to President Roosevelt's call to build a large number of movie theaters across the country, with the support of the government and our own abundant financial support, our American Asia Cinema Line has successfully become the largest cinema chain in the United States, and now our film company has sufficient cinema support for every movie launched. At the same time, it can also make enough profit from the screening of films shot by other film companies.

"Last year, our film company launched 16 films, each of which achieved a good box office, and five of them also occupied half of the top 10 positions in the annual box office list in one fell swoop.

"The expansion of our Meiya media is all-round, and now the five channels of the Meiya broadcast network, including news, transportation, literature and art, business, and music, have successfully covered all parts of the United States, and four of the 11 newspapers that have cultivated regular users since the past few years have grown into national newspapers and periodicals, and the sales of the Los Angeles Daily and the New York Post have exceeded one million copies, and we can grasp the public opinion orientation of some American people."

After listening to Lin Xiaotong's words, Sonny. Chai Man suddenly stood up and begged Lin Xudong and Ma Zhiyuan: "I suddenly have a brilliant idea now, since we can partially influence the will of the people, why don't we make full use of it to make a big profit from manipulating the rise and fall of international silver prices, increase our silver reserves at the same time, and increase our ability to resist financial turmoil?" ”

"Oh? Sonny, do you have any great ideas? ”

Lin Xudong asked with great interest. This sonny. Chai Man is not just a financial trader, he has learned a lot, the counterfeit money made in Portugal at the beginning, so fake and real, even the officials of the Central Bank of Portugal can not find out, the reason why Chuannan can successfully crack the secret of the yen, is inseparable from the information he provided. After serving as the general manager of Canadian, he can even find time to study the latest dollar manufacturing process, if it weren't for Lin Xudong and Ma Zhiyuan's constant pressure, he may have been able to make dollars comparable to real money. Such a ghost, how can his advice be ordinary?

Sonny. Chai Man grinned, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and at a glance he knew that he was beginning to calculate: "Although the Silver Group has been lobbying President Roosevelt to pass a bill to condone the activities of the Silver Group, trying to authorize the U.S. Treasury to buy silver in domestic and foreign markets until the price of silver reaches $1.29 per ounce or the value of the Treasury reserves reaches one-third of the gold reserves, everything is still unknown until the bill is actually passed."

"The speculative psychology of the people and the various consortia is very serious, coupled with the vigorous advocacy of the silver group, so almost everyone thinks that silver will undoubtedly rise, if we properly raise the price of silver, and then the United States, China, Southeast Asia will work together to throw out the silver we have hoarded, and suppress silver to a very low price. In the absence of policy support, it will inevitably cause panic selling in the entire silver market.

"Since the economic crisis, various consortia and people are very sensitive to economic speculation, and a wind and grass may make them psychologically broken, not to mention our huge shipments, when the time comes, when the silver reaches a very low price, we will quietly absorb it, and put a huge amount of wealth in our hands!"

Sonny. As soon as Chai Man said this, everyone was shocked, and everyone looked at him in disbelief, but they were silently thinking about how much benefit such an operation would be.
