Chapter 1328 A House Full of Gold and Jade
A rich house may mean a lot of wealth, or a lot of knowledge. But in this underground palace on Lanai, or just simply describing a fact.
Looking at the pits and valleys full of gold bricks, my depressed mood seems to have improved a lot recently.
Grab at least one gold brick in the corner...
Click, click, William White felt a little resentful. This thing doesn't look very heavy, so why did I let it go?
Since returning to Lanai, it has been both painful and happy. The result of someone eating too much and occupying too much is naturally lumbar muscle strain. Otherwise, although the 400-ounce gold brick is heavy, there is no reason to drop it directly to the ground.
"Well, it's so heavy, so John Bull shouldn't be filled with lead. Uncle Forbes, those bastards are cunning and cunning, don't let them fool you."
Even though he knew this guy was joking, Uncle Fu didn't care. However, a kind reminder is still necessary. At present, the White family no longer has any issue of heirs. As long as these little guys grow up, even if they can't become a thousand-year-old clan, it seems possible that it will take several hundred years.
"Master, young people should be careful about sex. Ahem, well, you still need to take care of yourself."
William White smiled bitterly to himself, brother, isn't this a no-brainer? It is said that one does not worry about scarcity but inequality. There are some things that one can only do one's best.
"Uh!" William White bent down and picked up the gold brick. In order to avoid embarrassment, he could only forcefully change the topic.
"Forber, Philson and others have calculated the gold reserves in London and New York. Although the figures are correct, they always feel that there is something wrong with them.
Think about it, the Federal Reserve really had so much gold at the time, and the Bretton System should not have ended like this. At the very least, the market needs to be given a buffer. "
What William White said is really not nonsense. The economic losses caused by the collapse of the Bretton System were comparable to those of thousands of tons of gold. If I had to describe it, it would be similar to the Great Depression in history. That is to say, people are smart now and have not started a trade war.
The economy is in turmoil and unemployment remains high. Then the next step must be to transfer the contradiction.
Fortunately, fortunately it did not come to that point, and fortunately Yingjiang suffered heavy losses in Smecta and Vietnam. If their venture succeeds, World War III is really not that far away from us.
"There should be some moisture, but precisely because of this, there will be no problems with the gold that has been delivered."
William White nodded and did not continue. He was just a little embarrassed, not doubtful about the gold.
"Master, these jade stones have become much more expensive recently."
"Well, Chinese people like jade. I hope the economy of Rabbit Country will be better. With more rich people, these things will become more expensive.
By the way, don’t the people of the Rabbit Country say that there is gold in troubled times and jade in prosperous times? It should be considered a prosperous time now. Anyway, I am very optimistic about the value of these things.
Alas, if I weren't worried about bringing trouble to my children and grandchildren, I wouldn't want to sell anything here.
The hall is full of gold and jade, but no one can guard it. Naihe, Naihe! "
Faubert disagreed with William White's sentiments. Nowadays, it is a society under the rule of law. It doesn't matter whether we keep it or not, whether our children and grandchildren compete for their own merit. These things will be fine. If you throw in a few people seeking death, then there is really nothing to say.
"Xiaohu, how is the communication with Myanmar? Are there any obstacles?" The Yangon public market now accounts for about half of the world's jadeite rough trading. If the relationship between the two families wasn't really awkward, William White wouldn't mind deepening the cooperation.
"Boss, I'm afraid it won't work in a big way. Although there are signs of easing the relationship, but..."
Although Xiaohu didn't finish what he said, William White also understood. It is almost impossible to take advantage of other people's popularity.
“That’s all we can do, use Xiangjiang’s agents, right?
Forget it, let’s prepare for the auction here. Since there is no small Japanese, the use value of this auction house is not great. Damn bubble crisis, this is so annoying. "
Looking at the indignant boss, Xiaohu felt like shit in his heart. He was even mourning for Xiao Japan.
When it comes to making money, who can be more ruthless than you. The artworks that were sold to others at exorbitant prices back then have been taken back one after another in the past two years. What’s an auction house? You earned back all ten.
Well, this time it’s even more ruthless and I’m going to sell the stone directly. Thinking of the dense jadeite stones in the warehouse, Xiaohu himself felt a little thirsty.
Damn it, we used a cargo ship to pull it back.
Most people in the United States do not understand this method of gem trading, but this does not include him.
When it comes to Yangon, this place has nothing to offer and can be considered impoverished. However, this place can dig out stones that are more valuable than gold.
He has been to Yangon Public Market. How should I put it? Rather than saying it is a trading center, you might as well say it is a large open-air Casino.
"Well, Xiaohu, in order to avoid being too specific, the auction name can be changed, and the location can also be changed.
The first two sessions will be in Xiangjiang and Rabbit Country. The Yangon public auction is in the autumn, so we call it the World Gems Spring Auction.
As for Lanai, two years from now! "William White thought for a moment and made such a decision.
Add in diamonds and other jewelry, and the auction takes on a different character. Of course, as the reputation gradually grows, I believe that the lighting industry will also cooperate. At the very least, it's okay to turn a blind eye.
Even if you and Ying Jiang are at odds with each other, there is no need to be at odds with Qian Qian. He even thought about it, and even the organizer used the name of an offshore company.
What, you are deceiving yourself!
Yes, there have been many self-deceptions in history. If someone needs a step, then give him a step.
Christmas is approaching, and Lanai, which is usually deserted, is actually a bit crowded.
Seeing that the boss was about to throw the fishhook out, a group of bodyguards decided to stay away from this guy. It’s already very unreliable for you to fish on the pier, but it’s only at this level. It looks very strong, but unfortunately, the fishing rod seems to be very disobedient to the command. If by any chance I get caught by this guy, wouldn't the brothers have to role-play a little bit?
But, if possible, it’s best not to play the role of a big fish. It’s really dangerous.
If his bodyguards are like this, don't talk about that group of tourists. Needless to say, there was still a crowd of people on Lanai, except for William White, who didn’t think twice about anyone else.
Plop, click, fuck!
A group of bodyguards had sullen faces and felt a little uncomfortable. Boss, are you fishing or a fish is fishing for you? This is already the second time in this moment. Although this guy is second-rate, he is pretty good at dealing with his subordinates. He didn't say that he would let people go into the sea to help him pick up fishing rods.
"Tsk, little tiger, catch a few fish from the boat and put them on branches. Let's go back and make fish soup to drink."
"Well, boss, it's ready."
"Fuck, okay, let's continue practicing tomorrow. I still don't believe it. Huh, go buy some better fishing rods. The stuff from Japan just doesn't work. I really can't take advantage of it."
"Okay, I get it." Xiaohu secretly cursed, although what you are using is not expensive, it still costs several hundred dollars. A few dozen yuan is enough for others, but the cost of your fishing is much higher than that of fish.
When it comes to sports, William White seems to be naturally uncoordinated. You want to say he doesn't understand, but this guy speaks clearly and eloquently. Unfortunately, once live ammunition is needed, this guy's hands and feet will immediately be out of control.
