The two slept soundly until 9 o'clock the next morning, and they simply stopped going to the company when they saw the time.

Qin Lan held her body and went to the shower room to wash up, then went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, Guan Qiu stayed for a while, got up, washed her face and brushed her teeth, and then sat on the sofa with her upper body naked and wearing big shorts watching TV.

The Athens Olympics are about to open. In the past few days, there are news related to it on the TV network. Several stations have been transferred to talk about the athletes' preparations.

He chose the Central Second Team, and the reporter interviewed the coach of the women's diving team outside the pre-match training camp in Athens.

[Hello, Coach Liu, in the final stage before the competition begins, can you briefly introduce the current athletes’ preparations for us.]

[Hello, audience in front of the TV. Now the overall performance of our team, including everyone's desire to fight, is very strong...]

As Guan Qiu looked at it, he suddenly thought of 2004 in his previous life.

In the previous life, China was shining with stars at the Athens Olympics. The names of athletes who were later familiar with such familiar later shining in this Olympics.

Unfortunately, it was too late. It would have been great if they had won their advertising endorsement earlier. What an influential promotion would it be to put their advertising on the homepage of 67.com?

Especially Liu Xiang, his influence lasted until the 2008 Kyoto Olympics in China, and then gradually faded out of the public's sight due to pain.

In addition to Liu Xiang, diving queen Guo Jingjing is also a sign of life...

Thinking of this, Guan Qiu slapped his thigh in depression, "Damn, why didn't you expect it earlier!"

Just when Guan Qiu was depressed, footsteps came from outside the door, and the sound of the key turning sounded on the security door.

The door opened, and it was not Qin Lan who was standing outside who went out to buy vegetables, but Park Ruo.

Park Ruo just arrived home on a business trip and wanted to come back to change clothes before going to work in the company, but she never expected that there was a man sitting on the sofa in the living room, which scared her.

But after calming down, his face quickly darkened.

Guan Qiu didn't expect that Park Ruo would come back at this time, and she was also very embarrassed for a moment.

The two of them stared at each other with big eyes, and no one spoke.

In the end, Guan Qiu was thick-skinned and stood up and smiled and said, "That... you're back."

Park Ruo, who came back to his senses, originally planned to leave, but after thinking about it, he still didn't leave.

I changed my shoes and didn't even look at Guan Qiu, so I walked straight to my bedroom.

When passing Qin Lan's room, Yu Guang saw the messy bed sheets and the toilet paper that was not picked up under the bed. He thought about the scene that happened in the room last night. He couldn't help but "sigh": shameless!

"Bang"

The door was thrown hard.

Guan Qiu touched his nose, then quickly went into the room to put on his clothes, and then cleaned up the bed sheets and room again.

When he came out, Park Ruo from the next room also happened to change his clothes and come out.

A white small lapel short-sleeved jacket, black cropped pants, and a pair of bright diamond crystal straps, the whole person looks beautiful and tall, and full of charm.

It's just not good at all, the face is cold, just like the ice cubes in the cold winter.

"Ding thud" Park Ruo didn't look at him, and walked towards the door in her high heels.

Guan Qiu said with a tough bullet: "That... wait a moment."

Park Ruo stopped and said coldly: "Do you have something to do?"

Guan Qiu smiled dryly and said, "That..."

He wanted to say that the Olympics are coming, but the Olympics have entered the countdown. It is impossible to talk about cooperation endorsements now. He was thinking desperately about every bit of his previous life in his mind.

It's better to have something to do with finance, otherwise, with Park Ruo's personality, I won't pay much attention to it at all.

This woman is so arrogant.

Unfortunately, Guan Qiu didn't understand finance at all. The only thing closely related to his life was the price of houses and gasoline and diesel, so he asked: "That... do you know how much gasoline costs?"

"What the hell is this?" Although Park Ruo was very angry, he was quite sensitive to these numbers and said casually: "3.58 yuan."

"Ah, I've increased by more than 30 cents."

Park Ruo said impatiently: "What the hell do you want to say?"

Guan Qiu didn't know what he wanted to say, but he was just talking nonsense and saying whatever he wanted, "Ah... that... I just wanted to ask you, how much does a barrel of crude oil cost now?"

Park Ruo's eyes became colder and colder, and she was also very disappointed with this man.

After only one day, the two of them came to see each other.

Just go to bed. Can't you open a room and have to go to her nose to sway the market?

At this time, Park Ruo regretted her decision to come to 67.com. She replied, "US$34.19" and planned to leave.

"It's only 34 yuan..." Guan Qiu didn't know how bad Park Ruo was at this time, so he murmured, "It shouldn't be!"

He remembered that in 2004, the oil price was very crazy, and even broke through the historic mark of $50. The crude oil price has always been inseparable from the war.

"Which oil-producing country in the world is fighting now?" Guan Qiu said in his mind.

"Iraq?"

Thinking of the Iraq War, Guan Qiu couldn't help but shout: "Damn it."

On March 20, 2003, the joint force, mainly British and American troops, bypassed the UN Security Council and unilaterally launched a military strike against Iraq on the grounds that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction and secretly supported K-Brazil elements.

In order to gain an absolute advantage in the Iraq War, the US military dispatched 180,000 people. I originally thought that this war could be fought easily, but because the front line was too long, the United States quickly fell into a stalemate. Although it used many new weapons and large-scale air strikes, it still did not achieve the effect of a quick battle.

The war lasted for nine years from March 2003 until the US military withdrew from Iraq in 2010.

"Hold a big grass!" Guan Qiu exclaimed again, then shouted to Park Ruo at the door: "Don't leave!"

Park Ruo's hand just put on the door handle, but was startled by the nervous Guan Qiu, turned around and said angrily: "You are crazy!"

Guan Qiu waved repeatedly and said, "Wait a minute! Don't leave first."

Park Ruo said angrily: "What do you want to do?"

Guan Qiu ignored her, jumped up and ran to the bedroom, opened Qin Lan's work notebook, and then began to search for news about the Iraq War.

[The U.S. Congress has approved a $126.1 billion investment in the Iraqi battlefield, and an additional $25 billion will be added, with a total investment of $151.1 billion this year. Congressional leaders have promised to add additional funds after the election.]

[Economist Dao Hanwud estimates that each American family pays an average of at least $3,415 for the war.]

[March Telecommunication: A survey by the U.S. Army found that 52% of soldiers were depressed; lack of equipment was a problem that had always existed. It was not until June this year that the Army equipped soldiers with body armor, which forced many soldiers' families to pay for their own money to buy body armor.]

[A poll conducted by the interim coalition administration in May found that 80% of Iraqis "distrust" the U.S. civil authorities and allied forces; 55% believed that if U.S. and other foreign troops immediately evacuated Iraq, they would feel safer.]

[Iraq's oil economy: Violent activities against the US occupation have made Iraq unable to utilize its oil resources. According to statistics, Iraq's oil facilities have suffered 130 attacks. Iraq's daily oil production has dropped from 2.04 million barrels in 2002 to less than 1 million pokes...]

Seeing the last message, Guan Qiu almost jumped up again.

As the first member of OPEC, Iraq plays a vital role in the world oil economy. It is no exaggeration to say that when you sneeze, the world's oil will tremble.

Now that the oil supply has been greatly reduced due to the war, it is conceivable how crazy the oil price will be next?

As Guan Qiu expected, in 2004, in his previous life, starting from September, the world's oil price jumped to a triple level, from $35 to $40, and then $45, $50, and $55 made the whole world exclaim.

By June 2005, international crude oil prices exceeded US$60 per barrel for the first time and accelerated their progress.

In August, Mexico encountered Hurricane Catri, and international crude oil prices exceeded US$70 per barrel for the first time.

On September 12, 2007, the international crude oil price exceeded US$80 per barrel for the first time, and then continued to accelerate its appearance.

On October 18 of that year, the international crude oil price exceeded US$90 per barrel for the first time, and reached US$100 per barrel by the end of the year!

In 2008, international crude oil prices soared again, and on July 14, crude oil futures prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange hit a historical high of US$147.27 per barrel.

Until January 21, 2009, international oil prices fell sharply due to the impact of the financial crisis, and crude oil futures prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange fell to US$33.20, returning to data before September 2004.

Guan Qiu didn't know about these news, but he was very sure that oil prices will definitely jump in a triple level in the short term, and oil prices will not drop for a long time in the future.

In the living room, Park Ruo waited for three minutes. Seeing that he was not out for a long time, he simply ignored him and opened the door and left.

But I knew that Qin Lan, who was buying vegetables, just arrived downstairs, came back.

Qin Lan, who was originally brisk in his footsteps, blushed when she saw Park Ruo and said awkwardly: "Why are you... back?"

Park Ruo hummed and walked towards the car without saying a word.

At this moment, Guan Qiu shouted upstairs: "Hey, Park Ruo is back soon, I'll find you if you have something to do."

Seeing that Park Ruo ignored him, he had to shout to Qin Lan again: "Hurry up and hold her, I have something to look for her."

After saying that, Guan Qiu hurried downstairs, and then pulled Park Ruo back upstairs.

Park Ruo was so angry that she almost got angry. This time she was really angry.

Guan Qiu didn't care so much, and he talked about his "judgment" of crude oil price trends.

Unfortunately, Park Ruo ignored him at all and thought he was deliberately making no talk to hide his immoral behavior.

Guan Qiu was so anxious that he was almost crazy. If he hadn't known how to operate or even knew where to buy crude oil futures, he would have gone to find someone to apply for a visa to the United States.

Guan Qiu suppressed his excitement and said, "Pu Ruo, believe me. Although I don't understand stocks or finance, I can analyze that oil prices will definitely soar in the short term."

Park Ruo couldn't help but say, "What do you know? In addition to being related to the geopolitical situation, crude oil prices also need to consider economic growth, monetary factors, climate factors, etc., which is not as simple as you said.

If the crude oil supply is reduced just because the war causes the price to rise sharply, then you might as well wait to make a fortune in the future. What other economic analysts are needed?"

Guan Qiu said: "Believe me, the price of crude oil will definitely skyrocket.

Do you still remember the small house I asked you to buy. Now it is more than 6,000 per square meter. It has only been a few months? The annualized rate of return must be more than 30%, right?

There is also Tengxun stock. You see, when they went public in June, they were only more than HK$3 per share, but now they are almost rising to 5 yuan, with a 40% yield. Can't this prove my vision? "
