Everyone has their own circle of life, even the street friends have their own small circle and territory, and the capitalists are no exception.

In the evening, Mr. Williams changed into a civilian suit and went to a bar three blocks from his house to get drunk, which was called Pink Temptation, but was exceptionally "clean". Women with skills in the Federation are not as easy to find work as in the Empire, they need to have a health certificate and a qualification certificate and a complete tax certificate within three months, and the bar will only hire them if they have all the documents to prove it, and pay them a commission by the hour. Of course, in addition to this part, the tips received by skilled women with their excellent ability and skills will no longer be taken by the bar.

If there is a requirement to do so, guests can exchange a token for a token at a bar or other business premises as a currency for use in the premises, because the young ladies with skills get this additional fee to pay taxes, and the Federation never spares any channel that can obtain tax revenues, including this fee.

Williams sat at the bar and asked for a bottle of spirits, exhausted by the declining business performance and starting to lose money, and now he has mortgaged his house to the bank, and if nothing happens in three months, he will consider whether he needs to borrow from a loan shark or mortgage his other things to the bank.

This is a very cruel thing, in order to get these things, such as his villa, his luxury car, all the luxuries he owns, he spent several years accumulating bit by bit to get to where he is today. But the speed of losing them was so fast that it didn't take him half a year to lose them forever.

Anger, dissatisfaction, grievance, hatred, countless negative emotions are tearing at his heart, and he needs to get himself drunk before he can enter the dream without being tormented.

He had just had two drinks and there was a guy sitting next to him, whom he knew and who was also the owner of a small factory. In the past few years, similar enterprises have emerged one after another, and sometimes some people have developed from three or five machines and a dozen workers to hundreds of machines and nearly a thousand workers, creating a wealth myth. But today, these myths of wealth have been shattered one by one, and when you come to the bar at this time, you should be as frustrated as yourself.

"Hey Mark, do you want a drink? I bought a bottle!", Williams shook the wine glass in his hand, the amber liquid kept hitting the ice cubes, and made a crisp sound of ice cubes hitting the glass, "I can sleep soundly at night by drinking a little at this time." ”

The gentleman, whom he called Mark, glanced at him and smiled and beckoned to the bartender, "I'll treat everyone to a drink tonight, and William's consumption is on my bill." With Mark's words, the quiet bar became lively in an instant, and people rushed to Mr. Mark to make a toast to him for his generosity.

"Did something good happen?", Williams moved his stool to the side, asked the bartender to come out with a glass and ice, and poured him a glass of wine. Although he had done such a thing as having a drink for every guest in the bar, and it didn't really cost a lot of money, it was still an expense that should not be wasted for Williams now.

Like him, Mr. Mark runs a small export company of light industrial products, he sells blankets, and Mr. Mark sells leather shoes, which do not do internal sales, but only export dumping. The last time we met was a little more than a month ago, and it was already very difficult at that time, did Mr. Mark find another way? This made Williams very excited, and perhaps it meant that the low point of his life would soon pass, if Mr. Mark was willing to give him a hand.

There is no overlap between his products and Mr. Ma's products, there is no competition problem, and the two have a good relationship, maybe he can help himself.

Mr. Mark laughed twice, turned his back to the bar, Williams also turned sideways, the two formed a small environment, Mr. Mark took a sip of the spirits that were easier to eat after cooling, and said with a smile, "It's okay, anyway, it's not as difficult as some time ago." ”

Williams felt like some little animal was scratching, and it was just a subtle statement that it wasn't so hard, and Williams knew that Mr. Mark had made a lot of money. For "decent" people like them, if the current situation is only slightly improved, they will exaggerate that they have begun to make a lot of money, this is to maintain their dignity and not let others look down on them, and maintain their own social circle.

No one wants to be friends with entrepreneurs who are on the verge of bankruptcy, because that means they will soon start calling or visiting to borrow money.

But if you really make a lot of money, you will say that you haven't made any money, and you are still struggling to persevere, which is to avoid the financial road you found from being known by more people, increase your competitiveness, and maybe even be eliminated by these good friends.

"Which country did you sell your things to?Monte Acelia?", Monte and Asilia had already ended the seventeen-year war at the beginning of the year, and the two countries ...... No, it should be said that all countries in the West have realized that with the development of the times, the progress of science and technology, the relationship between countries has undergone earth-shaking changes.

International unity is no longer the imagination of sociologists, and people have begun to pay more attention to international relations and their country's place in the international community. Ending the war at an appropriate time and building a country is of great help to enhance the international status of the country, and more and more countries in the midst of war have begun to draft armistice agreements, especially after the 18-nation conference on "maritime areas being included in national territory", the trend of international integration is becoming more and more obvious. Even if there is a war in the future, it will not be a war between one country and another, but a war of a worldwide nature.

In such a broad framework, it is the most foolish decision to perpetuate the war between countries and countries.

As countries begin to focus on development, the international economy begins to recover, and there will always be many dumping grounds for more profitable goods, and Williams thinks that Mark may have found a good place and dumped the goods.

Mr. Mark laughed, he raised his arm and shook his fingers, "No, no, William, my leather-smelling stuff is still piling up in the warehouse, I have dismissed my workers, and the factory has been sold. ”

This made Williams even more shocked, "Why are you doing this? Are you so optimistic about the export industry?"

Mr. Mark nodded solemnly and said, "Of course, we can't get the export subsidies and tax rebates of those big enterprises, and we don't have any competitiveness in the export trade of the same goods, and it's even difficult to maintain them, so why do we continue to maintain them? I think those people in the city hall are right, we should look elsewhere." ”

"Like ......," Williams gulped down the wine from his glass.

Mr. Mark smiled mysteriously, "For example, finance!"

"Honey, you never read the newspapers? The rise of the federal shield has led to the prosperity of the entire financial industry, and now you take the money to the trading house and buy a stock at random, and every day you don't have to do anything, you can hear your stockbroker tell you how much money you have made, which is easier than being a physical entity, and it saves trouble. ”

He looked a little casual, but there was also some ostentatious meaning, "I mortgaged all my property to the bank, raised 1.3 million federal guilders, and then took the money and put it in the stock market ......", he suddenly turned his head to look at Williams and asked, "Do you know about United Construction?", Williams nodded yes, almost everyone in the Federation knows about United Construction, Mr. Mark continued, " I bought all of this stock, and eleven trading days later, the shares in my current stock account are worth more than two million federal guilders, can you believe it?"

"In just over half a month, the stock price of United Construction has increased by more than 80 percent, and if I continue to sell leather shoes, if I can sell them, it may take me several years to make this money. ”

"But in the financial markets, it only takes two weeks!"

Williams' breathing suddenly became rapid, his eyes turned red, and he felt a force return to his body, and he was now full of fighting spirit, just like he had been more than ten years ago.

For the next period of time, Williams has been consulting Mr. Mark about the operation of stocks, which almost everyone in the Federation knows and understands, and even most people have opened accounts. But there weren't many people who actually did it in the past. It wasn't until recently that the industrial sector skyrocketed due to the frenzied signing of projects by the United Central Committee, and a lot of good news, that these people really started investing in stocks.

It has to be said that all of them made money.

The next day, Williams woke up in the morning, took a shower, changed into a set of clothes, and called the bank's credit manager and told him that he was going to pledge all his assets!

For such high-quality customers, the bank naturally gave the most fast, considerate and thoughtful service, and before noon, Mr. Williams entered the exchange with a promissory note of 870,000 federal guilders issued by the Commonwealth Bank.

He was also deeply affected by the frenzied atmosphere around him, and looking at the rising stock prices on the billboards, he felt that every second of delay he had a large amount of wealth flowing through him.

It took him a long time to squeeze the money to the trading desk, "This is my trading bank account, I want to buy shares of United Construction Engineering." ”

The trader took the promissory note and looked at it, and prompted, "All of them, sir?"

A golden light appeared in Williams' eyes, and he clenched his fists and shouted, "Yes, all!"
