Chapter 238
As night fell, a bright moon hanging high in the sky put a pale golden coat on the modern metropolis of Jiangcheng, which together with those colorful neon lights constituted a unique night scene of Jiangcheng. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After yawning, stretching n+1 and drinking n+2 cups of coffee, the bored three daughters (knowing the news that the two daughters were going to stay in the company today, Shuyun also rushed over from home) finally stayed up until nine o'clock in the evening, and the world's largest New York Futures Exchange finally opened the curtain again and started a day of futures trading under the expectation of the three girls.
After a while, Qianqianyu pointed out, Haitang and Lan Ling, the two women, quickly entered the trading account number and password, successfully logged in to the New York Futures Exchange, and officially started the journey of circle money, and for a while, only the three women's slight breathing and the "ticking" crisp sound made when they hit the keyboard were left in the entire investment department.
According to the pre-formulated plan, Lan Ling first made a multi-purpose small order to gradually absorb 300 million bushels of seven-month wheat and 300 million bushels of seven-month corn (bushels are a unit of weight measurement, and every 5,000 bushels is a standard contract size), and quietly established long positions at a cost of $120 million at the positions of 3.39 US dollars per bushel and 2.85 US dollars per bushel.
"Why, I don't understand?"
Glancing at Liu Shuyun next to her who was full of confusion, Haitang took a sip of coffee and then explained with a smile: "In fact, the operating principle of futures is very simple, we are now buying six-month wheat and corn futures that are about to expire......
Speaking of this, Begonia added another sentence in a joking tone, saying: "It's a pity that we don't have a storage warehouse in the United States, otherwise we can store it first and sell it slowly." ”
"I don't understand, I still don't understand!"
Looking at Liu Shuyun's cute appearance with a small mouth, Lan Ling, who was full of smiles, couldn't help but want to tease this little sister who didn't seem to have any scheming, so he deliberately pointed to the computer screen and exclaimed, "Wow, wheat has dropped by one cent, corn has also dropped by two cents, and there are nine million dollars less on the books all of a sudden." ”
"What, nine million dollars are gone just like that?"
Before Lan Ling's words fell, Liu Shuyun, who had never been in contact with futures speculation, immediately shouted, and a pair of small hands involuntarily held the corners of her clothes tightly, and the surprised expression on her face undoubtedly showed her nervous mood at this time.
Although Liu Shuyun's material cognition of the word "enjoyment" has improved to a new height since following Ling Yun, she was still shocked to say that she lost nine million dollars in an instant without saying a few words.
"It's down, it's actually dropped by half a cent, and three million have been lost again......"
Lan Ling's shouting from time to time made Liu Shuyun's uncomplicated brain obviously in a state of being unable to function, and the body that had just stood up was shriveled back on the chair, and it was extremely difficult to turn his head and not want to see Lan Ling yelling at the computer screen again.
Looking at the colorful expressions on Sister Shuyun's face, Lan Ling, who was the initiator, was already happy in her heart, and even Begonia couldn't help but stop her work and turned her head to look at Liu Shuyun, with a faint smile on her face.
At three o'clock in the morning, the New York Stock Exchange slowly closed the door after several hours of futures trading, and the two women of Begonia and Lan Ling turned off the computer to end the first day of fierce battle, and then looked at Liu Shuyun, who had suffered countless blows around her with a smile and was still supporting her eyelids, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, fortunately, I lost more than $20 million tonight." ”
Looking at Begonia who doesn't seem to care at all, as the most uneducated and uneducated of the three daughters, what else can Liu Shuyun say, burning more than 20 million US dollars in one night can still be like a nobody, in Jiangcheng, an international metropolis, there is really no second home except Begonia.
However, when Haitang was about to turn off the lights and go downstairs, Liu Shuyun, who originally wanted to talk and stopped, finally couldn't help but speak, and said, "Sister Haitang, will we be angry when Lingyun comes back after doing this?"
For an alien creature like Begonia, this kind of thing called banknotes in the human world is just a pile of beautifully printed paper in her mind.
Therefore, when she found that Liu Shuyun, who followed her out of the office, seemed to be still worried about temporarily losing more than $20 million when she was conducting futures operations just now, she couldn't help but comfort her with some amusement, and said: "Sister Shuyun, don't worry, it's only more than 20 million US dollars, maybe you can earn it back tomorrow." ”
Just when Liu Shuyun opened her mouth and wanted to say something more, Lan Ling, who found that the atmosphere between the three of them was a little dull, jumped out in time, and said with a smile in a mocking tone: "Oh, that bad guy has only been gone for a long time, and some people can't help but start thinking about men!"
"There's there, people don't think about that bad guy!"
Listening to the words with an obvious ridiculous tone in Lan Ling's mouth, Liu Shuyun, who always seemed to have been the target of Lan Ling's ridicule recently, couldn't help but blush again, but she couldn't help but know that Ling Yun's "tall" figure appeared in her mind, and she really didn't know when this bad guy would come back from Japan.
In the next few days, the prices of wheat and corn in the New York futures market still did not improve in the slightest, and as the delivery time approached, the prices of these two futures varieties in the futures market fluctuated, and they also remained relatively stable with the passage of time.
It wasn't until the fourth day that the prices of corn and wheat began to rebound sharply, allowing them to make up for the losses of the previous three days and earn back $10 million from the futures market.
"It's a good idea to make $10 million from the futures market in four days, but that's the profit from investing almost all of the company's liquidity in futures speculation!"
At three o'clock in the morning Beijing time, Li Shaojie looked at the fixed transaction records on the computer screen in front of him, and casually took a sip of the fifth cup of coffee tonight, and then shook his head and sighed to himself.
Li Shaojie has been doing quite badly these days, after the funds were transferred to the New York Futures Exchange in the United States according to the meaning of Begonia, he has been staying up late to pay attention to the departure of the New York Futures Market in the past few days, and the lack of sleep and mental pressure for a long time have exhausted him, so that there are eye bags and dark circles near his eyes.
Eight o'clock in the evening on the fifth day
While patiently waiting for the New York futures market to open, Haitang casually opened Yahoo to see what important news there was recently, but a message about the weather just popped up on the webpage, which immediately attracted all her attention.
"According to the latest news from Reuters, several important grain-producing areas in the western United States have been hit by torrential rains and tornadoes since yesterday, and it is estimated that wheat, corn and other food crops in the United States may experience a certain reduction in production......
Perhaps most people will not care about such a weather news, but for Begonia, this news is undoubtedly a great news, because the bad weather in the grain-producing areas of the United States was immediately reflected in the futures market, and almost all agricultural products on the New York Board of Trade in the United States were stimulated by this good news to go all the way up.
Looking at the price of wheat and corn futures, soaring all the way up, there is a momentum of never looking back, as a financial practitioner, Lan Ling naturally knows very well how much profit this futures operation will bring to them, so he couldn't help jumping up excitedly and shouted: "Haha, I'm really going to get rich now!"
"Don't worry, the best is yet to come!"
Begonia naturally will not let go of this good opportunity to make money, so it is very neat to manipulate the keyboard to buy all the remaining funds on the book in one go to buy soybeans, wheat and other futures contracts, which can be described as a desperate bet and a ghost.
However, the chances of making Begonia, an alien creature, a ghost, are very slim, because in the calculations of the sophisticated biocomputer in her head, this storm that suddenly swept through the important grain-producing areas of the United States will continue for a while, and the good show on the Japanese side should probably also be played.
Just as Begonia predicted, in the next two days, due to the great weather changes caused by the eruption of Mt. Fuji, the whole of Japan continued to rain and tornadoes, and the Japanese agricultural products, which were expected to be bumper, had to follow the US government to issue an early warning report in the face of this sudden natural disaster.
