how i bought the whole world

What makes me quiet in the past, I really can't answer Brandon, is it low self-esteem, arrogance, or persistence, I thought to myself that I may or may not have all the experiences I have experienced in the past two years. I don't even know.

I still remember that Alfonso once reminded me, let the past be the past, why bother, anyway, it has been over for so long.

"It really is the director, what he said is so philosophical." I said to myself.

Brandon opened the door and went out this time. I didn't stop him. I saw him open the door of his house. His golden retriever ran out to meet him. Brandon rubbed the dog's head and walked into the living room. Then, he The room lights at home are on, and a dog is barking.

I sat in the car with my head on the steering wheel, confused and confused for a while, the wine was fermenting in my stomach, rushing straight from my stomach to my throat, and the bitterness lingered on the tip of my tongue.I felt dizzy for a while, and I could barely judge where I was, and I didn't know how long time had passed, until someone knocked on the car window suddenly, "What are you still doing here? Aren't you going home?" Landon.

"I feel dizzy," I said.

Brandon looked at me for a while and helped me out of the car. I leaned against him and murmured his name, "Brandon."

"I won't forgive you if you spit on me, boss," he said. "You're drunk, I should really call the driver over for you."

"I was fine just now."

"This drink has a lot of stamina. You've had too much to drink. You've been drinking almost all night."

I was brought home by Brandon, he undressed me, washed my face, and put me on a soft bed. grabbed his cuff. "Where do you sleep, with me?"

"Good idea." Brandon said with a straight face.

"I won't wake up and find myself on the floor."

Brandon pinched my face as an answer, how dare he, I thought in a daze, I felt his fingers running through my hair, and then there was a soft good night, and the door was closed.

The next day I was woken up by a call from Chris.

"William," Chris said from the other end, "are you awake? Check the news."

"I didn't get up." I spent 10 minutes remembering where I was, and then found my pants from the corner of the bed, crumpled, "What's wrong?"

"Iraq." Chris only said these three words.

I understand.After hanging up the phone, I found my shirt and vest under the bed. They were all wrinkled, but fortunately, the coat was hanging on the hanger and could still be seen.I looked around, a bed, a cabinet, a hanger, that's all there is to this room.

a guest room.I judged, from the way it was furnished and displayed, that Brandon hadn't had a friend stay for a long time.

That's normal though, Brandon's experience was mostly spent on me, he probably had a few old friends he kept in touch with when he was in New York, but after moving to Boston he didn't have time to make friends, especially this year Over time, as I expanded the e-commerce platform to Europe and Asia, he became more accustomed to treating the company as his family and his business as his life.

I got dressed in the room, then opened the door and walked out, and a tempting fragrance wafted from outside the house.Someone was making breakfast, still breakfast of eggs and sausage and coffee, and I stood in the hall sniffing.The soft sunlight shone in the living room, the curtains in the corner were faintly floating, and there was a stack of morning newspapers on the corner of the square table. Everything told me that this was an ordinary morning, except...a dog ran up and circled around me.

"Hey, big guy." I knelt down and rubbed the dog's head, "What's your name, you look so handsome."

"His name is Jude Law." A voice came from the front, and Brandon poked his head out of the kitchen, "Breakfast?"

"Is that the Jude Law I know?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Yes."

Jude Law, the handsome golden retriever, licked my face. I rubbed his head again. Brandon placed two plates on both sides of the dining table. "There are new toothbrushes and new towels in the bathroom," he said.At the same time, he put another basin under his feet, "Jude Law, come and have your breakfast."

"Turn on the TV," I say to Brandon.

I washed up briefly in the bathroom. When I came out, Brandon had already turned on the TV. CNN, the largest news and television company in the United States, broadcast the news that the United States cooperated with Britain, Australia, Denmark and other countries to launch military operations throughout the day. The Iraq war began. Alright, Brandon and I tacitly ignored what happened last night, and focused on the current situation wholeheartedly.

My phone beeps twice.

"Oil prices have fallen." I glanced at the text message. Since the morning, the message on my mobile phone has been ringing non-stop, "News from the New York Stock Exchange, oil prices fell from $2 per barrel on February 27 to $40 per barrel today." $27 a barrel. The futures market is about to explode.”

"You have already prepared, haven't you?" Brandon handed me a cup of tea, "Actually, there are traces to follow. President Bush started to encourage the media and public relations to promote the Iraq war as early as last year, although they The action was blocked by the UN Security Council for several months, but in the end it still got his wish. I heard Martinez say that you have long been prepared for the stock market, just like the war in Afghanistan.”

"Iraq is not the same as Afghanistan or Kosovo, Brandon," I said. "Iraq has a lot more oil fields than Afghanistan or Kosovo, and it affects the stock market a lot more. The storage capacity is as high as one billion tons, which is a remarkable figure. One must know that the annual output of the Daqing Oilfield in Huaguo is only 5000 million tons. In other words, assuming that the Americans control Iraq now, it is equivalent to controlling the oil lifeline of the world , they can not only dance cha-cha around the Statue of Liberty, but also turn against the Russians who signed an oil investment agreement with Iraq last year, Bush is really ambitious."

This also means that the U.S. stock market will become more unpredictable. There are many rich people in Russia. They will not let themselves be slaughtered by the U.S. government for nothing, and they will definitely fight back strongly.At that time, when you sing and I will appear on the stage, and the Eight Immortals cross the sea to show their magical powers, it will definitely have a certain impact on the stock market.But this kind of chaos is also good for small companies like us. When all forces compete together, there must be a lot of fish that slip through the net.

"I like to fish in troubled waters," I finally said.

Afternoon, Robert.Martinez and I reported the situation of the exchanges in New York, Paris, London and other places. Sure enough, the oil futures market fell all the way as soon as the market opened this morning. It was technology stocks, which fell particularly hard, and I took the opportunity to pocket some of them.

"Although the price of oil has fallen rapidly, I think it will rebound immediately within five days." Robert told me, "The International Crude Oil Organization has stepped in, and there are oil dealers, they will try to bring the price back. It’s a big loss for them too.”

"Yeah, I heard that the US military is attacking the Rumaila oil field." I sarcastically said, "But this should be fake news, I guess they haven't reached Baghdad (the capital of Iraq), just wait, capitalists love to play The ups and downs."

Robert hesitated, "The President made a speech this afternoon, saying that this war will definitely be settled quickly, Mr. Field, if the Iraq War is really a quick battle, then many of our decisions will have to be re-planned, especially regarding the crude oil market. All the decisions we're making now are based on the fact that it's the long game."

I sneered: "I don't believe that, don't tell me you believe the nonsense of politicians. At the time, the president also said that he should quickly understand the war in Afghanistan, but the war in Afghanistan is not over yet. And Iraq is much more important than Afghanistan, and American soldiers are exhausted In addition to dealing with Saddam's army, they also have to deal with the entire Middle East world. You know, Islam is the most united sect, and they don't like the West interfering in their affairs."

The reason why I am sure of this is because I know the Muslim people, they are scattered all over the world, but they are really united. Long before the war started, there was the Arab League against the US military action in Iraq, and then in the US and Iraq During the tense relationship, hundreds of Iraqis returned to their homeland every day to support the war. These factors all showed that this is not a war that the United States can easily crush and win, not to mention that Britain and the United States are not very powerful armies (far less than China, Russia and Germany), they have too long supply lines, made the mistakes of the Germans in WW[-], even if I am not a military scientist, I can see the problem.

Robert was finally relieved, "But we still have to pay attention to the situation in Iraq at all times, lest it changes too quickly and we are caught off guard."

"Don't worry, Robert." I thought of Joshua Smith, "I still have a backup."

Chris knocked on my office door later, "Are you free? William, can I come in?"

I nodded to let him in.

"I helped your children with the housekeeping." Chris said, and brought the coffee pot from the pantry. "Here, new coffee. Your cup has been empty for a while."

"Thank you, Chris." I was so busy today that I was dizzy that I had no time to drink my saliva until now, "I'm sorry, the matter with Gu Anning was originally not your job, I should ask Brandon to do it, But I really don't know what his attitude will be..."

He held up a finger and shook it. "Don't thank me, man."

I smiled gratefully at him, Chris is like this, he will always be my strongest supporter, some things don’t even need me to explain, he will do it perfectly for me.He and I trust each other 100%, which is what I am most proud of.

Chris glanced at me again, "Huh, you didn't come home last night."

"How do you know, I've already changed into spare clothes." I said in surprise.

"Your dirty clothes are still hanging on the hanger over there," Chris said.

The author has something to say:

Author: So the meaning of your housekeeping is actually...

Boss: You know.

Author: I am a good citizen.

Boss: Haha.You are a good citizen.Hahaha.

Author: Why are you laughing like that? !
