"Joe, Cui Sanye is here!" Michelle panted and before she could finish speaking, Cui Laosan pushed the door and walked in with a stranger.

"Third master, third master!" Qiao Tianyu and Cui Kai hurriedly got up and shouted, but they muttered in their hearts.

Didn't they just break up in Zurich yesterday, why did Cui Laosan find London so quickly, and today he brought a stranger, did something big happen?

"No need to be polite, sit down!" Cui Laosan hurriedly didn't talk nonsense, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit down.

"Tianyu, Michelle, Xiao Kai, let me introduce you. Cui Laosan pointed to the middle-aged man in his fifties who looked rich and blessed beside him and introduced.

"This is my old friend, Liang Jiaju, director of the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank, senior vice president!

"Uncle Liang!Uncle Liang!Uncle Liang!" Cui Laosan spoke, Qiao Tianyu and the other three little ones didn't dare to slack off, and quickly got up and called someone.

"Okay, good, the future generations are terrible!" The middle-aged man's face was a little flustered, and after a simple sentence with a standard Gangpu, he looked up at Cui Kai, "You are Qiao Tianyu, right?"

"I ......" Qiao Tianyu was about to speak when he saw this, but was suddenly interrupted by Cui Laosan on the side, "Jiaju, he is Qiao Tianyu!"

"What's the situation?" Qiao Tianyu was shocked, puzzled by what he meant.

Yesterday, Cui Laosan saw Cui Kai pretending to be Qiao Tianyu, and naturally recognized that it was a fake Qiao Tianyu, not that Liang Jiaju was Cui Laosan's old friend, why did Cui Laosan still let Cui Kai continue to pretend to be Qiao Tianyu? Is there anything inconvenient?

"Hey, nephew Qiao Xian, this time you can be regarded as stabbing a hornet's nest!" Liang Jiaju couldn't hide his loss.

"Uncle Liang, has something happened?" asked Cui Kai in confusion.

"Nephew Qiao Xian, do you know what you did this morning? Because you made a big fuss about the 'Golden House' bargaining meeting, you pulled down the price of gold to an ultra-low price, and now the three major vaults, including Standard Chartered Bank, have been emptied!" Liang Jiaju said in disappointment.

"I just found out about that. Cui Kai hurriedly explained, "But Uncle Liang, this matter is not intentional on our part, we may be taken advantage of!"

"Hey, you have not only been taken advantage of, this time your misfortune has become a big deal!" Liang Jiaju said bitterly.

"Ah, we're in trouble?" The three little ones present were shocked at the same time, it seems that this Liang Jiaju is definitely the one who knows the inside story.

"Lao Liang, don't scare these three children, they are young and haven't experienced any big storms, if you have something to say, just say it, what's going on?" Cui Laosan urged on the side.

"Hey, in fact, you are not to blame for this, you really don't know the inside story. Liang Jiaju shook his head and continued.

"Do you know how many gold trading centers there are in the international gold market around the world?"

"There are four of them, right?" Michelle said tentatively, "It seems to be London, England, Zurich, Switzerland, New York, USA, and **, which is about to return to China." ”

"No, it's the big six gold markets. Cui Kai shook his head and corrected.

"Michelle said that the four major gold markets are the most famous, but the real meaning of the world's gold trading center, in addition to the four major gold markets, there are Frankfurt in Germany and Toronto in Canada!"

"Well, that's right, it seems that Qiao Xian's nephew has a very deep understanding of international gold. Liang Jiaju nodded and said.

"The reason why these six cities have become the world's gold trading centers is that each city has a big gold dealer in the east, which is the base camp of the big gold dealer, and the gold reserves of this gold dealer are stored here. ”

In other words, it is the gold reserves of this big gold dealer that have made the city a global gold trading center, which is why the 'Golden House' bargaining meeting, attended by the world's five largest gold dealers, is able to determine the benchmark price of international gold. ”

"Eh, isn't it?" Hearing this, Michelle shouted again, "There are only five of the world's five major gold dealers, but there are six gold trading centers in the world!"

"Rothschild Bank represents London, UK, Credit Suisse First Boston Bank represents Zurich, Switzerland, Deutsche Bank represents Frankfurt, Germany, HSBC represents New York, and Scotiabank represents Toronto, Canada.

"This pretty girl is so smart! she found out the problem so quickly!" Liang Jiaju nodded approvingly.

"That's right, in addition to **, the five major gold trading centers have a gold dealer to represent their interests, but ** is not, so as a gold trading center, who is its background?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, they all say they don't know, this question is indeed a bit out of the norm, I'm afraid only they gold industry insiders know the answer, right?

"British royal family!" Liang Jiaju saw that everyone didn't know, so he explained, "Do you know that one hundred and fifty years ago, after Britain launched the Opium War and defeated the corrupt Qing Dynasty, why did China have to cede ** to Britain?"

"We learned it in textbooks when we were children, because it was a natural deep-water port, which was convenient for the British to colonize China, collect the Chinese people's fat and ointment, and ship it back to the British mainland. "Today's Michelle has become a good student with excellent character and learning, and she has learned to answer.

"That's half right. Liang Jiaju explained, "It is a major role of ** to use ** as a transit station for transshipment of Chinese people's fat and people's ointment, but the British royal family had more long-term plans back then." ”

Because the instrument of British colonization of the world was the notorious East India Company, and the two major shareholders of the East India Company, one of which was the British royal family, and the other was the Rothschilds. ”

The Rothschilds were the best at financial business, and they were keenly aware early on that the world's five major gold trading centers at that time were two in North America, three in Europe, and none in the vast Asian region. ”

"The gold trading has the characteristics of full-time, the world's five major trading centers are limited by geography, and their daily transactions will be blank for a long time. ”

To compensate for this shortcoming, the Rothschilds recommended to the British crown that a new gold trading center be chosen in the Far East, between Europe and North America. ”

So the choice came and went, and in the end the Rothschilds and the British royal family agreed to ** as a new gold trading center, so they asked the Qing ** in the signing of the Treaty of Nanjing. ”
