Siheyuan: I have traveled through time and space and still can’t eat enough?

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, it was September 9th.

Today is definitely an extraordinary day for the entire financial market - the Hong Kong dollar has depreciated significantly!

In just one day, the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate against the U.S. dollar plummeted to an unprecedented 1:9.7!

However, faced with such a serious situation, Yan Jiekuang remained surprisingly calm and did not rush to call Zhang Xiaolong and others like an ant on hot pan.

You have to know that Hong Kong's economy is already in chaos at this moment, but he is very clear that this chaotic situation will create a certain degree of profit space when reflected in the stock market.

Yan Jiekuang's eyes were determined. He knew that this was a game where risks and opportunities coexisted.

What he needs to do now is to hold back and calm down. After all, more than half of his assets are there!

In this way, Yan Jiekuang waited and observed patiently...

A week later, he felt the time was basically ripe.

In the early morning, before the sun had shone all over the earth, he couldn't wait to rush to the post office.

After standing still, he picked up the phone skillfully and quickly dialed a number far away in Hong Kong.

As the call was connected, a voice full of surprise came into my ears: "Brother, is that you?"

Yan Jiekuang knew the other party was Zhang Xiaolong as soon as he heard it. He nodded subconsciously and asked anxiously, "What is the current stock market situation?"

"I made a lot of money!"

Zhang Xiaolong could not hide his excitement, his voice was trembling a little.

“Although we only used five times leverage, the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar was so severe that we actually made more than double the profit!”

From Zhang Xiaolong's excited tone, one can clearly feel that they have gained a lot this time.

Upon hearing that he had earned more than double, Yan Jiekuang could not hide his excitement.

But he quickly calmed down, because Yan Jiekuang knew very well that he was not a so-called financial genius and knew very little about the stock market, not even as proficient as Zhang Xiaolong is now.

And this victory was only because he knew the direction of future generations.

He couldn't do anything based on the limited information he got over the phone.

Therefore, this phone call was actually a signal that he was going to quit while the going was good: "Okay, it's almost time to clear the position."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaolong was stunned.

He asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Brother, the Hong Kong dollar continues to depreciate, and we clearly still have room for profit, why do we close our positions too early?"

Faced with Zhang Xiaolong's questions, Yan Jiekuang found it difficult to speak.

Should I tell him that I actually know nothing about the stock market and that I can only make money by relying on my memories from my past life?

Yan Jiekuang was silent for a while, then sighed.

He decided to use a tactful way to persuade Zhang Xiaolong: "Xiaolong, you have to remember that the stock market is as unpredictable as the changing weather. No one can accurately predict its future direction. Therefore, we should be content with what we have and stop when we are ahead. Don't be greedy for the last bit of profit."

Although Zhang Xiaolong was somewhat confused about this, he trusted Yan Jiekuang without reservation.

He nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, I'll go to the exchange right away this afternoon. But how should we deal with the funds? Have you made a plan for the future?"

This sudden question made Yan Jiekuang fall into deep thought.

At first, he only wanted to put the money safely in his pocket, but never considered the follow-up arrangements.

Faced with such a huge amount of wealth, you can't just keep it in the bank to earn a meager interest!

After careful consideration, Yan Jiekuang finally said, "How about this? You use all the money that belongs to me to buy gold. After all, as a hard currency, the value of gold is relatively stable, and its price has continued to rise in recent years. It can be regarded as an effective means of preserving value. As for the funds in your hands, you can freely use them according to your own situation, such as investing in some business projects and so on. If you are short of funds, you can also temporarily borrow some of my money."

Yan Jiekuang knew very well that he did not have many brilliant ideas, but buying gold could at least ensure that his property would not be lost, and at the same time there was hope of achieving a certain degree of appreciation.

In this way, you can ensure the safety of funds and obtain potential returns, which is like killing two birds with one stone.

The two didn't chat for too long. After Yan Jiekuang finished his business, he went home.

As soon as Yan Jiekuang stepped into the house, he noticed the strange atmosphere in the house.

He looked carefully and saw Guan Xiaoguan sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face, obviously sulking.

Yan Jiekuang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly walked to her side and asked with concern: "Wife, what's wrong with you? Who made you unhappy?"

When seeing Yan Jiekuang returning home, Guan Xiaoguan did not show the slightest joy.

Instead, he said unhappily, "A new restaurant is opening across from where we are gathering friends. Did you know about this?"

Yan Jiekuang was slightly stunned when he heard this, and muttered to himself, of course he knew about this, Han Chunming had already informed him about it before.

Besides, Guan Xiaoguan should have known about this a long time ago, and Han Chunming would definitely have told her.

So, Yan Jiekuang gently patted Guan Xiaoguan on the shoulder and replied softly, "I know. Didn't Han Chunming mention it to me a long time ago?"

He really couldn't understand why Guan Xiaoguan suddenly mentioned this matter, and his heart was full of doubts.

Yan Jiekuang thought she was upset because of a competitor, so he tried to persuade her: "He just opened a restaurant, didn't he? It's not like the whole street is the only one that allows our family to open one. Why are you so angry?"

Guan Xiaoguan rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "Am I such a petty person? It was Han Chunming's sister-in-law who not only poached Meng Xiaoxing from behind, but also secretly asked Meng Xiaoxing to contact our chef in an attempt to poach her."

Having said this, Yan Jiekuang suddenly realized.

I thought to myself, “Oh, that’s what it is!”

However, what confused him was that Guan Xiaoguan's methods in the original plot were quite cruel and sharp!

Why now...

Yan Jiekuang couldn't help but look at Guan Xiaoguan standing beside him, and instantly understood.

As the saying goes, a pregnancy will make a woman stupid for three years. I guess she hasn't figured out how to deal with it yet.

After all, she was his wife, so Yan Jiekuang certainly couldn't bear to let her continue to be angry like this.

Moreover, he really disliked Han Chunming's sister-in-law's behavior of playing tricks behind his back.

After all, when opening a restaurant, everyone should compete fairly and openly. What's the point of doing these little tricks?

What's more, this restaurant belongs to Yan Jiekuang!

Doesn’t Han Chunming’s sister-in-law know the relationship between Han Chunming and herself?

Thinking of this, Yan Jiekuang’s face became even gloomier.
