Due to the time difference, Guan Qiu and the others arrived in New York at 4 a.m. local time.

New York, located in the northeastern part of the Atlantic coast of the United States, is the largest city and port in the United States, and is also the world's largest economic center. It is known as the capital of the world.

For more than a century, New York City has been the world's most important business and financial center, and has directly influenced the global media, politics, education, entertainment and fashion industry.

There is a very famous line in the TV series "BJ Man in New York": If you love him, please take him to New York because it is heaven; if you hate him, please take him to New York because it is hell.

It is this line that evokes a generation of Chinese people's beautiful imagination about New York.

After leaving Kennedy International Airport, take a taxi and head towards downtown New York. Guan Qiu browsed through the car windows to the early morning street view of New York.

He was a human being in two lives, and he went abroad for the first time and was the world's largest metropolis. Needless to say, Guan Qiu's mood is in his heart.

According to relevant information, as of the end of 2003, New York directly or indirectly controlled more than 30% of the world's wealth and was the world's largest financial center.

The New York Stock Exchange has the total market value of the world's largest listed companies, with a global market value of US$11.5 trillion. Among the world's top 500 companies, 65 companies are located in New York.

And he, the man who crawled out of the mud, stumbled to this wealth capital. Even he himself could not imagine it, and it felt like he was dreaming.

"What time is the country now?" In fact, Guan Qiu knew it, but he just had nothing to say, so he could relieve his excitement.

"New York is about thirteen hours slower than Kyoto." Because of the long-distance flight, Park Ruo was a little depressed, and his head was close to the window and replied with his eyes closed.

"Oh~" Guan Qiu said as he looked at the building outside with interest.

As a reborn person, I saw a lot of skyscrapers in my previous life, so the towering buildings on both sides of the street did not give him a shocking feeling. I was just used to the Chinese scenery under the sky in 2004, and suddenly came to New York, which had been developing ahead for more than ten years, which evoked memories of my previous life.

I lived for more than 30 years in my previous life and have been struggling at the bottom of society. Many times I can’t even think about it. What do those who live at the top of the pyramid of wealth look like?

When he grew up, he realized the happiness of rich people, and he could not imagine it at all.

There was a time when he regretted it very much, regretting that he did not study hard when he was in junior high school.

Three years of presumptuousness will bring about a lifetime of humility.

I remember that the old man of the Zhou family asked him why he didn’t study hard. He said at that time that he was not the material for studying.

No, what is it that is not the material for reading, it’s just fun.

If he was given a chance to start over in his previous life, even if he had to hang his head and thighs, he would have to climb into college.

What a pity, it was too late after understanding it.

...

After crossing the Hudson River, the entire city suddenly became so bright that it was dazzling. The skyscrapers I saw many times in the background of movies, TV and news, and the names I heard suddenly came to my eyes.

The majestic Empire State Building, the magnificent Pennsylvania Station, and the fashionable and romantic Manhattan Times Square are passing by one in front of you.

Finally, the taxi stopped and came to the entrance of a hotel with a long English name.

The white waiter at the entrance of the hotel came up to help get his luggage. Park Ruo and the taxi driver checked out, and Guan Qiu followed him and watched, but he didn't know what he was doing.

After entering the hotel lobby, Park Ruo communicated with the front desk in fluent English, and then went upstairs with the room card.

The hotel is Park Ruo-chan. This woman will not treat herself badly. The hardware facilities are absolutely first-class and the environment is quite beautiful. She shares prosperity with Manhattan Times Square in the front, and listens to the gurgling Hudson River flowing behind her.

Of course, such rooms are very expensive, single deluxe rooms are $180 per day.

This price is available for a presidential package that can stay in a five-star hotel in the country.

When he arrived in the room and waiter put down his luggage, Guan Qiu thought that when he came, he heard that he would give a tip, and then he took out a 10 US dollars redeemed from his pocket to the other party.

The white waiter was very happy and kept saying "thankyou".

After the waiter left, Park Ruo said: "All service industries here need to give tips, so don't give too much, just 1 USD to 2 USD each time."

"You didn't say it earlier."

Park Ruo retorted: "You didn't ask."

Guan Qiu stopped arguing with her. He didn't understand English, and without Park Ruo, it would be like opening his eyes. If she annoyed her, she would really leave him alone.

"Okay, take a break early and you'll have to see the dealer at 9 o'clock." After that, Park Ruo drove him to his room.

Just got off the plane, and was on the other side of the distant Atlantic Ocean, Guan Qiu couldn't sleep even when he was excited, so he walked to the window and took a look.

New York and Kyoto have similar dimensions, both 43° north latitude and the seasons are similar. Now is the hottest season of the year.

At five o'clock, there were already people walking around in the square in front of the hotel. In addition to the sports crowd, there were actually people pushing the breakfast stall. I just don't know if it was a hot dog burrito or fried dough stick soy milk?

"Hehe~"

Guan Qiu smiled proudly, then pulled up the curtains, lay down on the bed and watched TV.

Unfortunately, they are all in English, and he can't understand even if he chatters.

After walking around the room for a while, then I felt sticky and went to the bathroom to take a rose bath.

It's really a rose bath. There are a lot of rose petals and bubble milk in the bathroom tray, so it doesn't need to be used in vain.

After taking a shower, I felt sleepy and finally couldn't help but fall asleep.

...

...

Futures investment is wonderful and cruel. It is essentially just a business, but not an ordinary business!

In Park Ruo's words, any investment is risky, but the risk will not come so quickly as futures.

The investment cycle of a real estate project may take several years to find out the result, but futures investment may only take a few days or even hours to reveal the answer. In extreme cases, it only takes a few minutes to make you die.

As far as stimulating is concerned, no industry like the futures market can allow you to experience a legend of your life in the shortest time!

Park Ruo didn't know that Guan Qiu was a person holding the "king bomb". In her opinion, he was a gambler with great gamblers. Although he had a bright future, he came to the futures market to "try his luck" and was so stupid.

She is not a person who is good at persuasion.

Don't say good things twice.

Since you don't listen, just tell him how stupid and irrational his decision was.

Thursday morning of the 19th.

After a series of preparations, Park Ruo entered the international crude oil futures market with the 30 million US dollars borrowed by Guan Qiu.

In just less than half a month, the price of light crude oil delivered on the New York Mercantile Exchange has finally risen to $38.46 per barrel per barrel, up 11.12% from the previous $34.19, an astonishing increase.

Park Ruo first bought 1,000 hands to try the waters. He had 14 times the leverage and nearly 3 million US dollars were spent in, without any reaction.

Then……

Then there was nothing.

Let's wait next.

Whether it is a bicycle turning into a motorcycle, a suit coming in, or a shorts going out, everything depends on the market trend.

Guan Qiu took advantage of his free time to learn some detailed rules of futures trading with Park Ruo.

As a reborn person with "two kings + four 2 + four a", of course he does not want to make money by relying on futures, but just to understand how capital works.

In two years, the US subprime mortgage crisis will initially emerge, and will begin to sweep the world by 2007.

He doesn't know anything else, anyway, just short real estate and bank stocks...

Make a profit!

The next afternoon, the market closed at 3:30, and crude oil stocks rose by 2 percentage points. Both Park Ruo and Guan Qiu were not concerned about this.

Now it’s just a test of the waters. Without talking about the funds, only one-tenth of the situation has ended, and even the leverage has remained at a normal level.

So, wait next.

At noon on August 21, local time in the United States, it is the traditional Chinese Chinese Valentine's Day.

During this romantic time, Guan Qiu dragged Park Ruo to go shopping.

This woman is not interested in the colorful New York city. Her mind is full of numbers, stocks, futures, and bonds.

When Guan Qiu put the fried potato balls from the street stall to her mouth, Park Ruo's eyes were full of murderous aura, as if as long as he dared to move forward another centimeter, she would execute him with her eyes.

Guan Qiu felt the murderous aura. Although he didn't care, he didn't take it anymore. He grabbed her hand and put the paper bag on her hand. "You can try it, it's really delicious. Although you are a turtle, I guess you have never eaten it before."

Park Ruo, who had a tense face, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason. She was really afraid that Guan Qiu would stuff the potato balls into her mouth, so she didn't know what she was going to react?

Guan Qiu smiled and continued to walk forward among the bustling crowd.

The food culture in New York is influenced by many immigrants, so it is very diverse. Snack vendors can be seen everywhere next to the bustling commercial streets, many of which are run by immigrants, including fried bean balls, octopus balls, mutton skewers, ice cream egg rolls, seaweed salad dressing, etc.

In addition to vendors, New York City is also a gathering place for high-end restaurants, such as Italy, France, Spain, Russia, Britain, Greece, Morocco, China, Brazil and Japan. It is really dazzling. At a glance, it seems that there are food everywhere except for those skyscrapers.

Finally, Guan Qiu saw a little girl selling flowers.

Because he was a yellow man, he thought he was a Chinese. After asking, he found out that he was a new immigrant from Japan. Maybe the main customer is also Chinese. The little girl spoke very well in Chinese.

After asking about the price, a rose was $2, and there was not much left, so he gave it a round and gave it $100.

The little girl bowed to him at a 90-degree angle and ran away happily.

Park Ruo lowered his head next to him and watched stocks and current affairs news on his mobile phone. In the sunshine, his soft and beautiful hair fell down, and his pureness was charming.

Guan Qiu handed the rose to her and smiled and said, "Happy Chinese Valentine's Day!"

Park Ruo didn't know that it was the Chinese Valentine's Day. He looked at the bright rose in front of him, and when he looked up and saw Guan Qiu's serious look, his face unexpectedly showed a panic look...
