Chapter 215: Liar

"Tony, have you heard? Kami has been deceived! On this day, Doris said to Monet with a gloating face.

"Scammed? Tricked by whom? Monet asked curiously.

"Didn't I say it before, Kami wanted to find an investment master, originally wanted to find you, but you didn't want to, so she didn't know where to find a stock god, and as a result, she was not only cheated of money, but also deceived people!" Doris explained.

"I can understand that this person was scammed, but how was the money cheated? Could it be that Kami can still give the money to this liar? She's not that stupid, is she? Monet asked puzzled.

"Of course she is not that stupid, but because of this scammer's investment advice, the company's investment was damaged, isn't this also a cheat of money!"

"If you say that, that's fine! By the way, has this liar been caught? Monet asked again.

Doris shook her head and replied: "It's not that I was caught, it's that people didn't run away at all, because they didn't break the law at all, I just gave investment advice, can you still force me to make money every time I invest?" ”

"That's true, then Kami can only eat a dumb ......loss" Speaking of this, Monet's mind flashed with inspiration, and he hurriedly asked: "Then Kami's situation must be very bad now, right?" ”

Doris nodded and replied, "It's not just bad, she can't keep these shares in her hands!" ”

"Then did you ask Cami how she got this liar?" Monet asked again.

"She said it was recommended by a friend......" Doris reacted halfway through the sentence: "You mean that Kami's friend is also cheating on her?" ”

"The most terrifying thing is that this friend of Cami has been bought by that second son of Kelsey! It's actually a trap, because I feel like he's the biggest beneficiary here! Monet analyzed.

Doris thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "I think it's very likely that you said, no, I have to go to Kami and ask her to pay attention!" After saying that, he hurried away.

After Doris left, Monet just wanted to linger with Lisa for a while, when suddenly a quick knock sounded, and then Beasley walked in and reported to Monet with an anxious face: "Boss, something is wrong!" The bank just called us and said that the Federal Reserve Board had asked that the gold withdrawn from the bank after February 1 must be returned to storage by next Monday, otherwise the name will be released. ”

Monet frowned, and muttered a little puzzled: "Hey, what are these guys from the Reserve Committee doing?" ”

"I don't know, but it doesn't sound like a joke, what now, boss?" Beasley asked anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'll ask what's going on first, and then I'll talk about it." After saying that, Monet went to Ix's office and asked his secretary about it.

Then he learned that the entire U.S. economy had fallen into complete turmoil, and banks in 21 states and the capital, Washington, D.C., had either closed down or were about to close down; Federal Reserve Bank figures show that gold inventories fell by 100 million yuan in just one week; The Treasury Department is short of money and has made it impossible to pay the salaries of federal government employees, let alone repay the $700 million in short-term public debt due on March 15.

The heart of the nation's finance has stopped beating. Banking in the states has come to a complete halt or a partial halt. Stock exchanges and commodity exchanges were also closed, for the first time in 85 years. The Rev. Norman Vincent Peale of Fifth Avenue in Manhattan is drafting his sermon the next morning, asking bankers and corporate managers to kneel before God and repent of their sins.

In response to this situation, on Wednesday, March 8, the Federal Reserve Board announced that banks would publish the names of those who had withdrawn gold from banks after February 1 and had not returned their deposits by the following Monday. As soon as the announcement was published in the newspapers, the telephone exchanges of the banks were busy. The bank told the caller that if there was gold to be sent back to storage, the bank would open the door for them and not let the reporter know.

Monet was relieved that he didn't have much gold in his hands, and even less after February 1, so he immediately instructed Beasley and Nicole: "Send someone to deposit the gold in our hands tomorrow." ”

"But aren't you worried that the economy will continue to deteriorate? It's safer to keep some gold in your hands. Nicole said with some trepidation.

Monet waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, there won't be chaos for long, at most in another five or six years, the American economy will take off." ”

The Fed's order proved to be very effective, and since the phone call went out, banks everywhere have said that there are long queues in front of their doors, as if they were scrambling to withdraw money last week, except that this time men and women are carrying travel bags and suitcases full of gold and currency. Encouraged by this, the Federal Reserve Board announced on Friday that it would expand its coverage to require banks to report the names of people who have withdrawn deposits in the past two years. The net was drawn wider and the fish were bigger.

As of Saturday evening, the state Federal Reserve Banks had recovered a total of $300 million in gold and gold exchange vouchers. With this as a reserve, it is possible to issue new banknotes of 100 million yuan. So, even before the plane carrying the new banknotes left Hoover Airport, Wooding approved certain savings banks to allow depositors to withdraw ten dollars in cash per household. Business is starting to come alive. Within a week, 13,500 banks (three-quarters of the country's total) were back in business, and the exchange was once again sounding the sound of the gong. New York stock prices jumped 15 percent. The Dow Jones stock market transmitter said, "Happy days are here again." ”

Seeing this report, Nicole said to Monet appreciatively: "Honey, you guessed right! It seems that happy days are finally coming! ”

Although Monet likes others to praise himself, especially his own women, he still waved his hand a little embarrassed and said: "This happy day will not come so soon!" Because when he said that the U.S. economy was booming, he was referring to World War II, and of course Roosevelt's New Deal did play a great role in alleviating it, but in fact, it was the Second World War that really helped the United States get out of the economic crisis.

PS: Originally, I went to Luoyang this summer, because these ancient capitals are basically Luoyang, and I haven't been there, but with the current situation, I don't dare to go to Luoyang in the short term, plus the epidemic in Nanjing, I don't know where to play......
