Chapter 366: Blame for Yourself

I don't recommend running naked for a month, I'm very depressed, the idea card, everyone bear with me, give some motivation!

***********

Of course, there are also institutions and banks that do not take this Hurricane Katrina seriously, you must know that the United States claims to be the title of the world's hurricane home, but it is not called in vain.

In this country, several hurricanes make landfall almost every year, and Louisiana, Florida, and Mississippi in the southeastern United States are almost the three most popular states for hurricanes.

Every year in these three states, there are at least three hurricanes, and although they have caused a certain amount of economic damage, they have not hit the point of being terrible.

Before Hurricane Katrina formed, the U.S. Hurricane Authority had issued an alert, but many people in these three states didn't take it too seriously.

And even the governors of several states are furious at the hurricane authority's warning, believing that it is interfering in their state's internal affairs, just a hurricane, and there is no need to be nervous to that point.

Although the U.S. Hurricane Authority has issued the most severe warnings to the governments of these three states, the politicians in these three states will not go to the bullshit administration at all, and it is not the FBI, so they dare to ask the three states to evacuate the population quickly?

What are you kidding, evacuating the population of such cities as Miami, New Orleans?

If the hurricane comes, it is not as strong as you imagined, can you bear the consequences?

If the population is evacuated, who will bear the losses caused by the time comes? The calculations of the governors and state legislators are clear, not to mention the losses caused by the evacuation of the population, and the cost of evacuating the population, which is not something that their states can afford.

If the hurricane had come, it wouldn't have been that bad, and maybe the disappointed people would have been able to tear them to shreds!

So at the same time as the U.S. Hurricane Authority sounded the alarm to the three states. The governors and politicians of these three states are also singing on your side, and most of them are doing some reassuring advertisements on TV to whitewash the peace.

There are also those with other intentions, who are spreading another kind of rhetoric everywhere to challenge the current ruling authorities.

Anyway, the news media in the United States have been lively enough these days. Politicians from all sides are pulling each other's feet on it. Talking about cannons, but there are few people who really do things.

Of course, this is also one of the shortcomings of American-style democracy, after all, the United States has been in the first position in the world for too long, and the American people are used to being delicate and expensive. The delicate and expensive Americans really can't afford to toss.

Even if they want to toss, the state governments of these states can't afford to open their mouths with the government, so these politicians are just talking on the TV news, and they are all thunder and rain.

As for the Americans elsewhere. Either they don't care about politics, or they just hold popcorn and wait to see the excitement, and the ignorant masses of onlookers are concerned about the lives and deaths of the people of the three southeastern continents. They don't care, they just care about whether the hurricane will come back or not, and how big the impact will be when it comes.

On the 20th, when Jin Xiaoqiang and they started to do it, there were not many people in the United States who paid attention to Hurricane Katrina, and by the 24th, as the wording of the warning issued by the United States Hurricane Authority became more and more severe, politicians in the three states scrambled to appear on the TV screen to refute the rumors.

Now this hurricane is about to make landfall in the United States. It has attracted the attention of some of the more sensitive financial institutions. They also reacted accordingly, some fearing that the hurricane would bring huge economic losses to the United States. So it's doing an urgent hedging policy.

Others simply do not believe that the hurricane will cause too much damage to the United States, and are planning to speculate in the financial markets.

At this time, the vacancies and bulls in the market of oil futures suddenly hid, and the longs believed that this hurricane would bring a lot of losses to the United States, and they were worried that the offshore oil fields in the southwest would be damaged and shut down because of this hurricane, so oil prices were bullish.

And the short ones are gambling, this hurricane is just another old-fashioned 'wolf' trick, it is simply a false alarm, they are betting that everyone else is nervous. …,

Once the hurricane passes through safely and does not have any impact on the oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico, the future trend of international oil prices will still enter a downward trajectory step by step.

And Jin Xiaoqiang and his Thunderbird company, at this time, simply ignored what was going on outside the window, and only focused on doing long oil.

At the beginning, many employees of the company did not know why the boss was crazy and were betting that the price of oil would rise, but now everyone has basically understood that the boss is betting that the hurricane will seriously damage the oil production in the Gulf of Mexico!

With a clear goal, everyone has a certain amount of confidence, after all, this is much stronger than the previous collision with headless flies, although everyone doesn't know how powerful Katrina is, but since the boss believes that this hurricane will bring everyone a good income, then why don't you follow the boss, anyway, it's the boss's money that is spent, everyone is just a wage earner.

At 18.30 on the evening of the 25th, Hurricane Katrina officially landed in Florida, USA, and when I learned the news, the entire company gathered in front of the TV wall on the first floor of the company, watching N, ABC and other news channels, and sent back reports about the hurricane from the scene.

When everyone saw the terrifying hurricane, which set off waves several meters high, surging ashore and destroying everything in its path, several people in the company were already cheering.

But soon, the whole company fell into silence, after all, this is the United States, and it is the American people who are affected by the disaster, and many people think of those compatriots who are suffering in the disaster area, and there are some believers in the Lord, at this time, they also seem to draw a cross on their chests to pray for their compatriots in the disaster area......

Jin Xiaoqiang, on the other hand, was standing in the office on the second floor, looking at the people below, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upward, with a disdainful smile.

Alice next to her looked at Jin Xiaoqiang, who had a strange expression, and was very conflicted.

On the one hand, she knew that the boss had made the right bet again, but on the other hand, when she saw so many people suffering, she was also very sad, after all, those victims were innocent.

The news on TV kept flashing back from the scene in Miami, Florida.

As you can see from the TV screen, the road out of the city has been crowded with vehicles, the convoy is slowly moving out of the direction of the city, there is a crowded traffic everywhere, on the windy and rainy highway, there are even a lot of teams that choose to escape on foot because the car is too slow, so the result is that the convoy is slower.

On TV, everyone saw an apocalyptic scene, with cars crowded together on the highway and crowds of people walking forward in despair of wind and rain.

"What's wrong? Do you feel bad in your heart? ”

Jin Xiaoqiang turned around and saw the contradictory look on Alice's face.

"I don't know, boss, I just think ......"

Alice didn't know what she was supposed to say at this point.

"What do you think, think these people are pitiful?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked with a sneer on his face full of disdain.

"Yes, boss!"

Alice raised her head and replied as she looked at Jin Xiaoqiang with a determined gaze.

"We Celestial Empire people have an ancient saying, called the poor man, there must be something hateful! These people look pitiful now, but before that, the U.S. Hurricane Administration had issued several warnings to these places, and each time it became more and more severe, but what were these people doing at that time? They didn't do anything? Even if some people want to escape, but can't afford to escape, do you really believe that they can't even pay a few dollars for a long-distance bus? ”

Jin Xiaoqiang persuaded Alice in general and said, when Alice heard Jin Xiaoqiang say this, she also felt a little better in her heart, yes, who can blame all this?

Can't they even pay a few dollars for the bus? You must know that if you travel by plane in the United States, if you go to some places not far away, it is only one or two hundred dollars, and this two hundred dollars is enough for them to escape to a safe place.

The United States is a notoriously artificially high place, those so-called poor people, really as long as they are willing to endure hardships, put down their children, and do some hard work, Alice really doesn't believe it, they don't even have a net worth of a few hundred dollars.

"It's related to their way of life, for so many years Americans have been living a life of eating and fringing, you can go and investigate, how many of them have savings? When they earn money, they go to drink, or they go to have fun, and if they don't have enough money, they go to their credit cards, and the U.S. government pays credit for them, borrowing money like the world. Their life like this is not only overdrawing their own future, but even the future of the whole world! ”

When he said this, Jin Xiaoqiang's expression had become more firm, because in his opinion, the American people may not all have bad intentions, but their way of life is overdrawing the whole world, and their way of life makes them more like a leech adsorbed on people all over the world in Jin Xiaoqiang's view!

Therefore, a large part of the current scene can be attributed to their own fault, and they deserve it!

A few years later, it was their frenzied overdraft that triggered a global financial crisis that affected not only themselves, but also many other countries around the world.

And Jin Xiaoqiang, who was in his previous life, was also one of the victims of these American leeches, so in his opinion, these people are not worthy of pity at all!
