Chapter 110: Going to the Appointment
One more reason to go to the party.
Seeing that Laura wanted to go, Ye Dongqing said to her: "Then let's take you to buy clothes first, there are many shopping malls nearby, and you also need to buy a pair of high heels, which you have worn before?"
"Stealing my sister's thread once, it should be able to get used to it, just don't heel more than five centimeters. ”
I've never heard her say she has a sister before.
Ye Dongqing asked curiously, "Where is your sister now?"
"I eloped with a crazy man at the age of twenty, I haven't seen her in years, she has robbed me and bullied me since I was a child, don't think how good our relationship is, she is a Bitc*!"
“......”
It seems that the other party has left a very bad impression in her heart, otherwise how could she burst into foul language just thinking about it.
Because of the historical reasons of thousands of years, the Chinese attach great importance to the ethnic relationship maintained by blood, and the white people do not pay much attention to this, and it cannot be said that they do not pay attention to it, but they do not attach as much importance to it as the Chinese.
Like the family environment that accompanied Laura to grow up, there are many poor people, and there are many parents with radical thoughts, to be honest, she can have such a character now, in Ye Dongqing's opinion, it is already quite good, similar to himself, they are all "raised by free-range".
Parents and family members have a lot of influence on children, and the lack of care in the process of growing up makes Laura very good at taking care of other people's emotions, because she has been through a lot of things herself, and knows how others will feel, so it doesn't seem to be all bad.
didn't ask much about such privacy-related questions, Ye Dongqing didn't care what kind of person her sister was, and said: "I probably understand, wait a while, and I'll accompany you to go shopping after continuing to talk with the designer." ”
"Well, leave me alone, I'm going to serve my sentence in this house then, right, the scenery is beautiful, there are so many shopping malls around, I like ......"
A house worth more than six million dollars, how can it be bad, in 2003 at this time New York housing prices were still at a low level, and the dollar bill was not the dollar bill more than ten years later, except for the large traffic on Fifth Avenue and a little noisy, it was almost impossible to find fault.
After the people from the architectural design office made the drawings, they brought them to Ye Dongqing today to see what they felt needed to be changed, such as the dark red carpet, which would be replaced with a brighter turquoise color, and matching chairs and sofa cushions, sofas, curtains, furnishings and other things would be replaced, the previous owner was a Mexican gas tycoon, and the money may be quite a lot, but the aesthetic taste is average.
After the redesign, the overall look is much brighter, more youthful and stylish, and the bells and whistles in the room will be replaced.
The indoor swimming pool is only six meters square, and it hits the head when you kick your legs, which seems redundant, Ye Dongqing decided to knock down half of the wall and transform it into a study landscape, raising some turtles and snapping turtles in the renovated pool, saving a waste of space.
As for the living room, the custom surface of the super large aquarium wall will be very good, once a fortune teller in Chinatown told Ye Dongqing, said carved out of Liaodong, the most handsome is called Hai Dongqing, can tear tigers and leopards, but also love to eat fish, so it is recommended that he raise Arowana.
I know that ten percent is nonsense, but it sounds pretty good, and then I really raised two red arowana, and I liked this big fish when I came and went, and now the house is so wide, there is no reason not to continue to raise, increase a little anger, and occasionally look at the heart can be more comfortable.
Finalize these quickly.
Maybe the designer is slandering, especially when I heard that I changed the pool to raise turtles, forty or fifty pounds of snapping turtles, I can only sigh that the habits of rich people are quite unique.
A little flaw does not prevent the other party from thinking that Ye Dongqing is a very easy young man to get along with, and he quickly passed the design plan after meeting for the second time.
Scattered, a total of more than 20 places that need to be changed, the next is likely to live here for many years, it is worth taking time to use more snacks, the equipment of the indoor gym needs to be replaced, the equipment of the indoor theater needs to be replaced, how comfortable how to come.
The office is much more casual, it looks pleasing to the eye, a pantry and lounge are designed, and the location of his office is also finalized, the decoration style is very Chinese, and even a tea table will be placed.
Used to entertain guests, when Ye Dongqing was thinking about things, he could occasionally use it to entertain himself.
Before going out, I wrote a deposit check, and the balance was paid after acceptance, which cost about one million dollars, both materials and labor costs are very expensive, and it is precisely because of the high cost of human resources that there are almost no low-value-added factories in the United States, but these low-value-added factories employ the most, resulting in many people who do not have a skill to be unemployed at home.
Looking back at 2002, the economic situation was not very good last year, and most of the institutions that went to the developing countries to make money made more money than those that stayed in the United States, and the market sentiment was generally optimistic, and a large number of dollars were flowing around the world, and they felt that 2003 would be better than last year.
At the party that night, Ye Dongqing took Laura, who had never seen much on the market, and stood inconspicuously in the crowd.
Occasionally, he cast some eyes, almost all focused on Laura, who was in a white evening dress, and it would be strange for both of them to wear black, so he bought a white dress for his girlfriend tonight.
Since the collapse of the dot-com bubble, traditional funds have suddenly become unpopular, and a bunch of vampires have turned to hedge funds, an industry that was not taken seriously, in fact, they are not necessarily more profitable than traditional funds, and the risks are also relatively large, but who makes investors eat this set.
The group of people around them are talking about oil, compared with foreign exchange and gold, its performance recently is the most noteworthy, and the volatility means that it is likely to bring higher returns, and they are expressing their opinions one by one, no one knows that Ye Dongqing, who is standing next to them, actually dares to use 20 times leverage to do long crude oil futures.
The person who invited Ye Dongqing to come over has not yet come to greet him, and there are still guests entering the venue one after another, and Mrs. Johnson, who is worth tens of billions of dollars in Fidelity Investment Group, is surrounded by many people at the moment, among which there are some familiar faces that Ye Dongqing feels, often seen in financial magazines and TV, and there are several billionaires alone.
Malik Fasi was also there, the rich third generation from Boston, raised his glass to greet Ye Dongqing from afar, but he didn't mean to come over to talk.
The attitude is very clear, or stay away, from which Ye Dongqing can think that little Edward probably said a lot of bad things about himself, or maybe this guy took the initiative to take a stand.
I don't think there's anything, I can't be a friend anymore, when I saw an old man, Ye Dongqing's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted Laura and said, "Go, accompany me to meet someone, I didn't expect to see a living ...... here."
