Chapter 280: Monday in Memory, Black
"Red dragonfly in the sunset, please tell me what day I met you in my childhood......"
"Pick up the basket and come to the mountain......"
The beautiful children's chorus spread outside the door, Lin Mo took a long breath, and looked at the courtyard reflected by the sunset, Lin Lei was dancing under the tree with the singing voice in the tape recorder, dressed in a white silk shirt and pants, with two small bags tied on her head, and her eyebrows were exquisite, like a little fairy in a painting.
Ichiro was the most alert, he raised his head lazily, and swept his tail on the ground a few times, which was considered welcome. It thinks it's best to be the smallest owner, and often opens a small stove for itself, as for the one at the door, it's very old-fashioned, and it's boring.
Lin Mo's arrival interrupted the poetic painting style in the courtyard, and Lin Lei plunged into his arms, pulling at the corners of his clothes and asking for all kinds of things.
"A little later, a little later." As soon as Lin Mo exerted his strength, he hugged Lin Lei, Lin Rui, who was doing his homework on the table, felt very congested, how old he was, he still wanted his eldest brother to hug him, of course, he himself also wanted to replace Lin Lei's current position, and the eldest brother hadn't hugged him for a long time.
"Lin Mo, hurry up and put the table on the table." Ma Xiulai heard the sound outside, and he didn't come out, so he shouted in the kitchen.
"Got it." Lin Mo put Lin Lei down, and then set up the table for eating, eight small porcelain cups, eight pairs of chopsticks, incense, candles, paper money, and waited to start serving.
Lin Dezhong hurried into the house, and after washing his hands, he also joined, and he summoned both children over to explain to them the procedures for these meals.
That's so interesting! Lin Lei bit her fingers and asked curiously, "Dad, can they receive these paper money grandfathers?" Did it go to heaven as soon as it was burned? Then Grandpa waited in the sky, reached out and took it. ”
Lin Dezhong's face was embarrassed, and he shook his head at Lin Mo, meaning that you will answer.
"Huh! Lei Lei! This kind of thing is a custom of ours, the so-called belief is there, and if you don't believe it, you don't have it, of course, the eldest brother believes it. ”
Roughly talking about the Netherworld Mansion, in Lin Lei's thoughtful gaze, Lin Mo finally concluded: "This is a beautiful wish, I hope that the souls of our ancestors will always be there, always watching the lives of future generations." ”
Lin Lei nodded as if she didn't understand, in fact, this kind of sacrifice is one of the cohesion of the family, the same ancestors can unite the members of the family and expand, and the Yanhuang sacrifice is also a means of cohesion of national beliefs.
Pour three rounds of wine, rice, tea, and finally burn paper money, at this time, Lin Rui and Lin Lei are the most popular to join in the fun, the two of them followed behind Lin Mo's buttocks, and lit the fire upside down.
"Ahh Lin Lei stretched out her thin little hand and lit the lower part of the paper money with a lighter, and immediately screamed excitedly and frightened, in exchange for the white eyes of Lin Rui beside her.
"Coward!"
The flames gradually rose, forcing the two children back, Lin Mo stood on the side, pulling the scattered paper money with a branch, the fire was blazing, but Lin Mo was a little stupid.
In his previous life, he must have been finished, Lin Mo, who didn't believe in these things before, has changed his concept, where can this paper money go? Are the heroic spirits of our ancestors watching over me?
After burning the paper money, the meal is over, and the family is sitting in the courtyard, the cool breeze is blowing, the taste of liquor and vegetables is mixed together, and a smoky sense of happiness arises spontaneously.
Today's meal is very rich, similar to the New Year, which can make the two children proud, staring at their favorite dishes, and even Ichiro followed the light and improved the food.
After the meal, it was the children's paradise, Lin Mo made two melons and two orange lanterns, Lin Rui took his sister out happily, and the friends in the yard made an appointment to go to the parade tonight.
Lin Mo sat lazily on the sofa, the autumn tiger had already emitted its last heat, the temperature began to drop, and the most comfortable season of the year came.
When the phone rang, Lin Mo didn't want to move at all, so he stretched out his hand and finally reached the phone.
"Hey!"
"Lin Mo, why are you so lazy!"
The voice on the other end of the phone startled Lin Mo, cousin Li Lan.
Now the home phone can not make international calls, can only answer, to make international calls, only to go to the telephone bureau to queue, write an application, after their turn to the cubicle to call, three minutes, an international call at least dozens of yuan, can be called a sky-high price.
"Sister Li Lan, why did you think of making a call, is it because the United States is not allowed to burn paper money?" Lin Mo teased, according to the customs of the southwesterners, even if you reach the ends of the earth, as long as it is time to worship your ancestors, then you have to offer food when you should eat, and be careful of the police when you should burn paper money.
"You just talk nonsense, I'm a genius here! You'll have to wait until the evening to provide food. Li Lan yawned, apparently just getting up.
"Is there something wrong?" According to Li Lan's law, if she calls early in the morning, then she must have something to say.
"Hmmm! Yes, I'm going to sell IBM shares and increase my investment in emerging technology stocks like Microsoft, what do you think? Now Li Lan is no longer jerky at the beginning, and easily said the investment plan involving more than one billion US dollars.
IBM! The market value of this blue giant has begun to decline in recent years, and it seems that Li Lan also feels that this giant is faltering.
"Yes, but if you don't have a good chance, forget it, others such as Coca-Cola, GE and the like can be operated, huh! Wait a minute. ”
Lin Mo felt as if something in his brain wanted to jump out, he tapped his head with the microphone, making an empty sound, which made Li Lan on the other end of the phone a little strange.
Monday, Monday, what does it mean? Lin Mo had a headache, and when he looked up and saw the calendar on the wall, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head.
Black Monday!
Yes, the famous Black Monday in history, Lin Mo learned about it after losing everything in the stock market in his previous life, which was a global financial disaster.
"Sister Li Lan, wait a minute, Lin Mo put the phone on the table, and went to look through the calendar by himself, while desperately recalling in his mind, but unfortunately there are not many things left.
"Sister Li Lan, the following words are very important, is there anyone around you?"
Li Lan felt that Lin Mo was making a fuss, and she replied, "I just got up, did you say there was anyone?" ”
But Lin Mo couldn't care about her grievances now, and he said in a solemn tone: "Record! ”
Although she was not very happy in her heart, Li Lan knew that Lin Mo's every guidance could make Shuangmu Investment go to the next level, so she muttered to get a notepad and pen.
"We started selling tactical investment stocks in September, and from October 10, we shorted New York, London, Sydney...... Hong kong. At the last moment, Lin Mo still added Xiangjiang, and now it is still British, so with the mentality of not letting go of the mistake, Lin Mo still decided to start.
"What? Are you crazy? Li Lan on the other end of the phone almost squirted coffee out of her mouth, but her pajamas were unlucky and wet.
"I'm not crazy." Lin Mo said calmly: "This is my judgment. ”
This sentence calmed Li Lan, and she began to think back to Lin Mo's golden finger all along, yes! There have been almost no mistakes, if everyone knows that behind Shuangmu Investment is a teenager, and it is a teenager who is a teenager in the first year of high school in China, how many glasses will Wall Street break?
"Okay, I'll listen to you, you go on." Li Lan calmed down her panic and began to record.
“…… Sister Li Lan, don't you think the current stock market is a little impetuous? And so many stocks are overvalued, so many bubbles are in it, it always has to be squeezed, squeezing is healthier! ”
"Leverage is allowed, but you must hold the necessary margin in your hands, and all the stocks that have been listed are sold, and all the funds raised are used for this investment, Sister Li Lan, whether we can occupy a place on Forbes in the future depends on you, I am optimistic about you!"
"Shhhh Forbes? "Li Lan has been in New York for so long, how could she not know about this magazine, Lin Mo should be talking about the rich list! Could it be that the profit after this short sale will be so high? Li Lan was depressed, thinking that her cousin was not dreaming, although if all the investments in her hands were counted, then Lin Mo could also go to Forbes, but what Lin Mo meant was that even she could have so much money.
Now is the era of Japan's economic take-off, the manufacturing industry is developed, and exports are strong, resulting in high domestic real estate prices, just like the domestic in later generations, at this time Japanese real estate developers can even occupy the position of the world's richest man.
Li Lan was still dreaming, and Lin Mo's voice came from the other end of the phone, "After October, I will transfer some of the funds to Japan and invest them in the stock market and real estate, and I can set up an Asian department in the company to be responsible for financial investment in Asia." ”
"Japan? But we already have some investment in the early stage, why do we still want to go in? Is there still a chance there? In fact, not long after the yen appreciated, Li Lan reminded Lin Mo, and then took out some of the funds and invested them in the Japanese market, which has now appreciated a lot.
"Not enough!" Lin Mo said categorically: "Didn't you pay attention! The richest man in Japan is now a real estate developer, a small island country, the value of land has gone crazy, at this time we have to go in and get a piece of the pie, it is not too late, the stock market and real estate, these two directions. ”
Li Lan took a sip of coffee and said, "Yes! The yen is now appreciating by almost 5 percent every year, which is a rare opportunity. ”
After the two reached a consensus, Lin Mo put his mind at ease and added: "Pay attention to Japan's policy, once there are signs of austerity, we will withdraw immediately, we are here to make a fortune, not to be a pick-up man." ”
Japan has cut interest rates this year, this move has directly attracted the covetousness of the outside world, this is to blow up the bubble, want to use inflation to maintain high economic growth, three years, only need three years, ninety years is the period of collapse, but these three years are enough to make Shuangmu Investment's assets swell, with a large profit from the Black Monday stock market crash, a brain into the island country, the final harvest can make Lin Mo count the money for ten generations to cramp.
