Chapter 73: The Positive and Negative Sides of Fate
"The recovery in the dollar index and the decline in commodities such as crude oil have dragged gold prices to further upside. β
"Some investors who have made short-term profits may have chosen to leave the market, which will bring gold back to its previous range of $950 to $1,000. β
βγγγ Now it seems that the IMF's previous announcement of plans to sell gold still had an impact on the market. Just recently, the IMF's executive board agreed to sell 403.3 tonnes of gold in stockpiles, one-eighth of the IMF's total gold reserves, with a current value of about $13 billion, in a "non-market-disrupting manner". β
"The gold price correction is limited this time, on the contrary, if the time is ripe, investors and speculators may once again speculate on gold, and the price of gold is still likely to return above $1,000... β
"Wow-"
After breakfast, Arthur in the warm sun room closed the newspaper in his hand, with a helpless expression, leaned forward, reached out and took a sip of a cup of black tea, since he knew that he decided to use the manor mortgage, he has been paying attention to various news in the financial investment market every day, looking at a series of gold futures news, he is really a little anxious.
I know that gold will rise sharply, but because I don't have money, I can only watch it, although I have 800,000 pounds now, but this little money, it's really not even a small splash, if you just think about a little rich, then it's okay to invest and make a little money, but who made Arthur have the ambition of a billionaire!
It's pursuit, it's greed, I can't let go of this, I'm worried about losing that. Arthur suddenly felt that he was so tired of making himself, thinking of this, he couldn't help but tell himself, don't worry, take your time, there are many opportunities...
"Whew-"
Exhaling a cloudy breath, Arthur reached out and rang the service bell, reopened the newspaper, and waited for the butler Paul to come.
βLordγ What do you need?"
Three minutes later, Paul, the butler, pushed the door open and looked at Arthur and asked.
"You look at this first-"
As he spoke, Arthur handed the newspaper in his hand to Paul, and after Paul took the newspaper, he looked at the contents on it, frowned slightly, and looked at Arthur with a suspicious face.
"Lord, I don't understand what you mean... β
Paul was reading a story about a man named Smith who had lost his property and Β£20,000 in debt after failing to invest in the tsunami, and was selling his kidney in an online ad for the future of himself and his daughter. Because it is illegal to sell organs in the UK, even if they are transplanted overseas, some experts disagree that it would go underground and that the authorities should review the rules.
Paul is really a little confused, I don't understand what his earl means by letting him read this report, is the earl going to buy a kidney? I haven't heard that the earl's kidney is not good, it won't be to pretend to be another one... Phew, butler Paul hurriedly put aside his own nonsense.
"Contact this Smith and I want to give him a job. Arthur said.
The butler Paul was stunned, because of pity? He was a little confused, remembering that the other party was engaged in financial investment before, he couldn't help but think of a possibility, and hurriedly asked: "Lord, did Robert Lang do something wrong? Do you want to change to a new person in charge of financial management?"
"No, Robert didn't make a mistake and I didn't plan to replace him, I was just thinking that I might have to make some investments in the future, so I wanted to find an investment advisor, and this Smith might be a good choice, and I wanted to meet him, and in addition to saving a family, maybe a good talent. β
Arthur did feel a little pity when he watched the news, and he did need someone who was familiar with the financial markets to help him, a person who had to sell his kidney in desperation, Arthur believed that his helping hand would make the other party grateful, and gain more than the ordinary employment relationship, and he could gain a loyal and diligent subordinate with the grace of knowing the situation.
"Lord, if you want to invest, you don't need to choose him, after all, the other party has been proven to be a loser. Paul, the butler, admonished with concern.
"In the face of the global financial crisis, there are too many losers, I need a senior person in the financial industry to help me, and the other party is now in the despair of life, otherwise I will not choose to sell my kidney, the person who will be responsible for my capital investment in the future can be very important, but loyalty is even more important.
A person in despair, facing the life-saving straw I stretched out, believes that he will cherish the hope I give him even more, and I will reap gratitude and loyalty, plus a useful talent.
Of course, the premise is that the other party is really a talent, and I am willing to give him a chance and hope!" Arthur squinted his eyes slightly and said lightly.
These words are very persuasive to the steward Paul, because in the eyes of him, the loyal steward of the Boleyn family, loyalty is more important than talent, of course, this loyalty is not unconditionally giving everything to himself, and of course that kind of loyalty cannot exist in modern society. Instead, they will proceed from the interests of the main family, take the main family to heart, and will not do things that are harmful to the interests of the main family.
"The fact that the other party can make such a great sacrifice for his children and family is really worth the opportunity you give him in terms of responsibility and character, and I will contact him as soon as possible and hope that he can seize this opportunity. β
"Well, then I'll leave it to you, you meet him first, and I'll refer to your evaluation. Then decide whether to use him or not. After all, Arthur was also worried that he was using inhuman.
"Lord, I know what to do. Paul, the butler, replied with a serious and serious expression.
"Well, okay, I'm going to continue writing novels... After making arrangements, Arthur took a sip of black tea, then got up and left the conservatory, and walked back to the castle.
When Arthur 13 was spelled in English, far away in the magic capital of the East, Edward Ye and Hergo had just finished a meeting with the management of the Legend Network Group, and the negotiations were very successful, and they also met the legendary boss of the Legend Group again.
To tell the truth, they just came to contact each other on the first day of their arrival in the magic capital, indicating their intention and purpose, which made the management and boss of the legendary group very shocked, of course, they were surprised and shocked at the same time very happy and excited, they never thought that a certain point of influence really expanded overseas, and also attracted collaborators.
This made the management of the Legend Group feel a little proud, especially the legendary boss, who was even more happy because there was a group of foreigners who recognized their creative model, and warmly entertained Edward Ye and his party.
You know, the original idea of the legendary boss was to build "legendary literature" into an online Disney and an entertainment and cultural empire. Then he began to lay out from the upstream, acquiring a number of literary websites and publishing companies, which were worth a few bucks back then, but many large companies and investors were not optimistic, and now it seems that these decisions are really far-sighted.
"Bang-"
Edward Ye, who was sitting in the car, looked at Hergo and asked, "Did you find it?"
"You mean the internal atmosphere of the Legend Group?" Hergo frowned slightly and asked rhetorically, seeing Edward Ye nodding, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the legendary headquarters outside the car window, shook his head and smiled: "These have nothing to do with us, we just need to get the license, but I really didn't expect that the other party really just symbolized Xing to ask for some authorization fees." β
"Yes, when the boss said this, I still felt that the boss was thinking too much, but I didn't expect it to be so easy to negotiate, a hundred pounds a year, hehe... β
"The legendary company wants to expand its overseas influence, and I believe the boss will be very happy when he learns about this news!"
"However, to be honest, I'm still a little worried about whether the Celestial Empire online article can have a market overseas. Edward Ye frowned worriedly.
"No one can say this, just try it and you'll know, after returning to the UK, we are busy, and a single translation project is enough for us to be busy for a while. Hergo shrugged his shoulders and said with some emotion.
"Hehe, that's your business, I'm only responsible for the website construction I'm good at. Edward Ye chuckled.
"I'm having a headache, so I'll have to find more part-time international students... Hergo smiled bitterly.
