Chapter 829: Invitation from the upper class of the American imperialists!

Soon, on the American side, after taking care of most of the movie notes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhu Zilong is here, the American Gold Exchange!

The U.S. gold market is a gold trading market controlled by U.S. regulators, and it is a kind of savings for gold by the U.S. savings structure. It is the world's largest gold trading market.

It is mainly concentrated in the five major exchanges of New York, Chicago, Detroit, Buffalo and San Francisco, among which New York and Chicago are the most influential.

The Federal Reserve and the Treasury manage the US currency, and the size of the gold reserve is 8,135 tons (data at the end of June 2006), accounting for 75% of the total US foreign exchange reserves, and the US monetary reserve gold has been frozen for many years, that is, it has not increased or decreased.

Most of the world's gold is basically in the United States.

For example, in international gold trading, other countries first ship gold to the United States and then sell it. The Chinese came and bought it, but this part of the gold is actually still in the United States, and the United States is not allowed to ship it away, just for safety.

The Chinese have a trade surplus with the United States, and the Americans have to close the accounts (owe us money). In international settlements, gold, as a hard currency, will be partially given to the Chinese, but it is not allowed to be shipped away.

Power is justice, hehe!

Of course, the gold trade is actually a trade of ownership, and there is no deal, just like stocks. You can't buy the actual products of the company, but you buy shares, which represents a certain percentage of the ownership of the company's assets.

Conversely, if someone buys our gold, they will not be able to take away our gold.

However, for gold, the United States is the second largest gold producer in the world after South Africa. So the United States would have had more gold than we did. There is no need to buy our Chinese at all!

One of the main reasons why people from all over the world deal with gold in the United States is actually quite simple.

Take the Chinese as an example, China's foreign exchange reserves are very large, China's current economy is the most active is export trade, export trade is naturally the dollar.

However, it is difficult to convert the US dollar directly into RMB and put it in the domestic market because it will cause changes in the exchange rate.

Therefore, we can only invest in the international market settled in US dollars, and the projects that can be invested in the world are limited, and China's foreign exchange cannot be spent at all. That's why American gold will be bought in large quantities!

It's a currency war and operation, and the Tao is deep inside!

Of course, in fact, there is very little gold that can be bought, and Americans value their gold very seriously. Therefore, Chinese also need to buy a large number of US Treasury bonds, which are currently the largest in the world, and the income is as stable as gold, which is a good investment product.

Well, if one day, China is the number one power in modern times.

Conversely, Chinese government bonds will become a product that all countries are vying to buy. Then Chinese people can live like heaven at home just by printing money.

Every year, the world's jewellery demand accounts for 60% of the world's gold demand. 10% for technology, 20% for investment bars and coins, and about 10% for central banks.

China is now the world's largest market for gold jewellery, with 750 tonnes consumed in 2015. Of course, in recent years, after 2020, India has also followed suit and become almost tied for the first place. In these two countries alone, only 2,000-3,000 tons of gold are consumed each year!

This also means that with the inventory and mining capacity of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zilong can't even satisfy a country!

I have to say that in terms of the production capacity of ancient people, it was such a cheat.

Of course, Zhu Zilong still has a small expectation.

That is the inventory in the Dragon Palace, and the gold in the sea.

It's not about shipwrecks in the sea, it's about seawater. Our body contains about 0.2 mg of gold, most of which is in blood water. That's 1 ounce of gold for every 155,000 people.

And this is the amount of water in the human blood, according to the reliable results of known scientists.

One liter of seawater contains about 103 parts per billion of gold. Perhaps one day, the plan of electrochemistry to extract an estimated 50 million tonnes of gold from the world's oceans will come true, perhaps with the success of the invention by the likes of Nobel laureate Fritzhaber.

It is said that the Mediterranean Sea alone contains an average of 2,888 tons of gold.

Zhu Zilong really wanted to know if one day, if he became a 100% true dragon, could he use the dragon clan's divine power to extract the gold in the sea.

Thinking about it, in the past, the Dragon King of the Four Seas, why there was so much gold in the Dragon Palace, Zhu Zilong felt that this possibility might be true.

Last year!

When the price of gold was only in the mid-200s, Chinese aunts were keen to buy all kinds of gold. At that time, many people also thought, "Oh, it's too low, the price of gold is so low, will it not maintain its value?"

As a result, --- style of painting has changed abruptly, and only half a year has passed this year, and spot gold has risen by nearly 30%!

In addition, the United Kingdom left the European Union a few years ago, and now there is another country that wants to leave the European Union in 2023. All of a sudden, the short-term volatility of the financial markets almost reached the level of Lehman's bankruptcy in 2008, and the trading volume increased several times.

And the constant fluctuation of US dollar interest rates, coupled with the signs of a collapse in China's real estate sector, has led to an increasing number of people investing in gold.

Zhu Zilong was not worried at all that he would not be able to get rid of the dozens of tons of gold in his hands. On the contrary, it is not a problem to sell at a good price!

It's just that he said that he would not let the relevant departments of the United States investigate why Zhu Zilong has so much gold in his hands.

Hehe, you're thinking too much.

If you are a sling and have dozens of kilograms of gold in your hand, and you suddenly make a move, it is estimated that the relevant departments will invite you to tea.

However, in the society of big capitalists in the United States.

To put it mildly, the capitalists are the ones who actually control the country, and even the president of the United States is just a puppet.

A Greek boss with a fortune of about 10 billion euros has a great favor to Hollywood, and he is making a movie, which everyone knows can make billions of dollars.

If you want money, you need to have connections, and you even have friendships and potential cooperation with many officials.

Do you have a try?

Believe it or not, Zhu Zilong said a word, find some more people, whoever comes up to investigate, will lose his job as a civil servant. Do you believe it?

This is not China, this is the most hung Western country for the rich.

As long as you can't be sure that you have evidence, it is extremely dangerous to public safety. Even if you kill someone, you can distort the facts into legitimate defense.

This is also one of the main reasons why Zhu Zilong now chooses to sell most of the remaining gold in the United States.

However, today, Zhu Zilong miscalculated.

Because, Jingran really has, people from the special upper class in the United States, came to him to chat about this matter.

Of course, not a formal occasion. Instead, an invitation was sent out in the name of a person from above, which didn't seem to be official. I hope Zhu Zilong can give face and attend a party of upper-class celebrities.

Zhu Zilong naturally did not back down, and also participated.

As the waiter walked through several corridors, he walked into a gate guarded by several black security guards. All the attendants who met Zhu Zilong bowed respectfully and nodded to him, turning sideways to make way.

In the innermost room, unlike the reception room outside, there are many people dancing.

A handsome middle-aged man with an indescribable maturity all over his body. With a cigar in his hand and a warm smile on his face, he walked towards Zhu Zilong and said, "Oh, dear boss Zhu, welcome to my villa......"

After a few polite gestures, another young white man walked in.
