In the girl's mind, Lem rarely brought work home. In his words, work should be solved at work, not at home.
Home was a place for family members, and it was also a private place. There should be no work here.
That was why she found it strange that Lem brought back a large number of materials today, but she didn't say anything. It had nothing to do with her.
As long as she had enough pocket money, everything else was not a problem.
As for whether she would encounter some malicious gazes when she went out with Lem?
Of course not. The clothes Lyme was wearing were expensive, and he was holding a staff of civilization that was covered in gold and embedded with various gems.
Who would dare to laugh at him when he poked the staff into the ground with a bang?
In the Federation, you could scold the president for being a coward who only knew how to cry behind the desk, but you couldn't insult those rich people.
Even if your tone was slightly unfriendly, there would be a court summons sent directly to your home in an envelope.
This was the deterrent power of capitalists in the lower strata of society.
This was also why many people at the lower class could wave their fists and spit in the face of officials, but could only lower their heads in front of big capitalists. They were as uneasy as the natives of the Federation 200 years ago.
The former needed the votes of the voters, and the people were the source of votes. They needed the people to vote for them, so the people could do what they liked without restraint.
The latter, on the other hand, controlled the most basic things of the people's lives. Losing them was equivalent to losing everything!
Life would also become futureless.
The girl was not worried that she and Lem would be laughed at when she went out with such a "boyfriend." On the contrary, her little sisters were extremely envious of her current life.
After the fruit plate and tea were delivered, the girl went to exercise. She had recently been addicted to exercise and got a membership card in Youermei.
There were many excellent bodybuilders, especially some who were in their thirties or forties, but looked about the same age as her.
She also had to start taking care of her body. From now on, her body was her capital, and she had to protect her capital.
Lem, who was sitting on the sofa, was also reading the information. As he read, he thought about what Lynch was going to do, how to do it, and how far to go.
He didn't intend to surpass Lynch and grab this opportunity first, but it was a habitual analysis.
Lynch was always successful, always successful!
He wanted to do that too, but he couldn't. The only thing he could do was to understand why Lynch could do it, but he couldn't.
Lynch did not know that he had become someone's research subject. He was also looking at the information, but he was not looking at the information on silver futures, but gold futures.
The effect of the rise in the price of silver was not only reflected in the futures price and trading market, but also in the international precious metals market. People would consider choosing silver as a reserve.
A stable and rising reserve was the best guarantee of wealth. In the past, people stored gold, but now they stored silver.
Lynch flipped through the information. The current price of gold was 38 dollars and 77 cents per ounce.
Compared to the end of last year, it was one dollar and one ounce more. This increase was not right. It was too little.
According to the trend of previous years, the price of gold should have broken through 40 dollars an ounce in March or April, but it did not.
Why?
Because of the large amount of gold flowing into the market, capital began to shift from gold to silver, which also contributed to the rise in the price of silver.
When the value of silver exceeded the value of gold, whether it was for the sake of wealth security or for the sake of currency depreciation, gold was no longer suitable as a reserve.
In other words, the market no longer favored gold!
No one would take the initiative to tell the public about this situation. Even in some remote cities, people were still buying silver from the public at a very low price. Their approach was even simpler. They only needed to do some eye-catching activities.
For example, ten ounces of silver for one ounce of gold. If the price of silver was not abnormal, many people would think it was a good deal.
In their minds, the price of silver was only one-twentieth of gold. This was a profitable trade. However, they did not know that when they made such a decision, they had already suffered a huge loss.
The whole society was squeezing silver, and gold was abandoned.
Lynch flipped through a lot of information and found some data.
He only went to bed after one o 'clock in the evening. He rarely slept so late, but today was different.
He had also made his own decision. He was going to suppress gold!
Yes, he promised Mr. Patu that he would not do anything to silver now, but he did not say that he would not do anything to gold. This was a good opportunity that might not even appear once in a thousand years.
Once there was a huge fluctuation in the current situation of gold, more investors would exchange gold for silver, which would further drive the price of silver up.
And the price of gold would continue to fall.
Who had ever heard of gold falling?
Probably not, or maybe it had once or twice, but it rose back up very quickly.
What Lynch wanted to do was to beat the gold down, then absorb the gold at the bottom, and then explode a bomb.
He had these ideas. In the past few years, the high priest had been constantly sending gold from Nagalil to the Federation. Lynch had been keeping an eye on this batch of gold, so he did not hand over the gold exchange to the bank. He did it all himself.
He had transported more than twenty tons of gold several times. He was still thinking about what he could do with the gold, but now, he knew.
What he wanted to do was to accelerate the distrust of the people in the futures market. As long as the transaction price of gold continued to fall, there would definitely be people following the trend.
He was really selling it at a low price, but he was selling it to himself …
It was only a loss in transaction fees, but it could cause the entire gold market to fall. When the time came, he would lose a little money, but he could drag down the gold price by a few points, or even more. It was very cost-effective!
After waking up the next morning, Lynch did not exercise. After washing up, he went to the dining table and enjoyed a delicious breakfast.
Anna had also woken up. She had changed into a set of capable clothes, tied her hair together, and made a small bun. She even wore a pair of glasses, which made her look somewhat intellectual and beautiful.
"Today's morning schedule is temporarily canceled …" Lynch said as he enjoyed the fried egg.
The egg was fresh, and there was nothing different about it. It was just that there was some ham and some … ingredients that he did not know the name of.
It was a type of fungus that grew on the roots of the dragon's blood wood. It was very rare, bright red in color, and very expensive.
Its price could perhaps be compared with gemstones, but gold was not its match at all.
There were also a few drops of some kind of seasoning. In short, the taste was very special and very delicious.
When it first entered his mouth, it was the unique thick texture of the egg yolk. It was not fishy, and was slightly sweet. After that, the unique taste of ham surged up.
Could you imagine the joy of such a delicious taste that had been processed for a long time rolling in the mellow egg liquid?
Finally, there was the unique taste of the fungus under the roots of the dragon's blood wood.
To be honest, it was delicious, but it was a little strange.
But overall, it was a very good breakfast.
After swallowing the food in his mouth, Lynch looked at Anna, who was ready to take notes. "Let's go to the Jinhui Bank in the morning. I have something there."
Anna took notes quickly and looked at Lynch. Lynch smiled and said, "That's all for the morning."
After the two of them finished their meal, it was already half past nine. Then, the driver sent them to the headquarters of the Jinhui Bank.
As soon as they got out of the car, the bank's manager appeared.
He took the initiative to walk over to Lynch. "Mr. Lynch, I am extremely honored that the company has sent me to welcome you!"
Lynch reached out and shook hands with him. Then, he introduced Anna, who was beside him.
The manager seemed to know Anna and praised the girl. Then, he focused on Lynch.
"I've already asked my men to prepare everything. You can take them away anytime, anywhere, anytime."
"Now, they are in a separate warehouse!"
While talking, the three of them did not enter the bank's headquarters building. Instead, they went around it.
The headquarters of the Jinhui Bank looked like a military fortress. There were straight walls everywhere, and there were some guards with guns walking back and forth on the walls.
They were here to restrict legal gun ownership.
Every storeroom looked huge and sturdy.
They came to the side of one of the warehouses. After entering through a small door, they found a room.
The manager handed the key to Lin Qi. "I'll be waiting outside. Just give me a call whenever you need me."
He did not follow them in. He did not even open the door himself.
Under Anna's curious gaze, Lynch inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it.
Clatter, clatter, clatter, clatter. The sound of rolling gears caused a series of chain reactions, and the heavy iron door slowly opened.
In the next second, Anna covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying out.
Inside the room, gold bricks, each as thick as an arm, were stacked together like a small mountain.
Bright light shone on the gold bricks. The walls, floor and ceiling of the entire room were covered in a layer of gold light.
Lynch walked in. He wanted to pick up a gold brick, but unfortunately, he could not do it with one hand.
Using both hands, he casually selected several gold bricks and placed them on the small cart. These gold bricks were to be taken out for inspection.
Who knows if the bank would do something to them? He and the Jinhui Bank were good partners. However, the more they were like that, the more he had to be wary of them.
"These … are all yours?"
Anna's expression was somewhat excited. Her family owned a gold mine and she had seen some gold ores before, especially the large nugget gold.
Mr Patu's hobby was different from the average person. He liked to collect those ores.
Even so, Anna had never seen so much gold stacked together. It was like a dream.
Like an illusion.
