Chapter 614: The Gross Profit of Saving Money

August 11, Tuesday, evening, Miyamoto's house, living room.

While the Miyamoto family was eating dinner, the phone rang. Mei Daizi put down the knife and fork, chewed the beef, and went to check. When she found out that it was Belinda's number, she pressed the hands-free button.

"I'm really sorry to disturb your meal." Belinda smiled.

"I know I'm bothering you, so let's talk quickly." Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "I see you're in a hurry right now, by the way, where are you and what time is it, why don't you go to sleep?"

"I just finished my trip to Washington, and I'm flying back to Los Angeles." Belinda said, "If you asked me to bring it, I brought it, and their answer is that they don't take advantage of you, as long as you can afford the price. , One trillion US dollars is exchanged for 100 billion tons of crude oil, and you are responsible for transporting it yourself.”

"Well, I admit defeat, I don't have such a big place to hoard these crude oils." Miko Miyamoto said, and then asked, "If I admit defeat, what would they say?"

"If you admit defeat, don't intervene anymore. Don't make any more transactions of more than one billion US dollars in a short period of time. If you have more funds, invest all in the United States. You can afford it. This is what they said." Belinda said.

"Okay, I see." Miyamoto Miko said, and then changed the subject, "By the way, where's Olivia? You didn't ask her to accompany you to the meeting?"

"Blackstone Financial acquired the Amoco Building, the headquarters of Amoco Petroleum, and asked her if she wanted it. She went to Chicago to see the goods." Belinda said, "By the way, when it comes to meetings, let me tell you, the decision is made I have formulated a strike plan, mainly launching Tomahawk homing missiles from the water, I don't know the specific time and attack target, but I can guess the time and guess it is within ten days."

"And the target is nothing more than those countries." Miko Miyamoto said, and then asked, "But is this kind of attack really good?"

"Who knows, I don't have a say in this kind of thing, and I can't control it." Belinda said, "Also, I heard that the previous target was Slav, because the disarmament negotiations have not reached a consensus, and they are planning to conduct military exercises to lure him."

"You mean, let him realize the striking power of advanced weapons against backward weapons?" Miko Miyamoto asked.

"I think that's the case." Belinda said, "You must know that most of his armaments are the crystallization of technology from the 1930s and 1940s, and only a small part are Soviet-style products from the 1970s."

"I see, what else is there?" Miko Miyamoto said, "If not, I'm going to start work."

"Okay, I think I'll go to sleep," Belinda said. "Bye."  …

After six o'clock in the evening, Mei Dai Restaurant.

Mira came over, drank the vodka sent by Mei Daizi, and expressed her intentions to Miko Miyamoto, "British Petroleum merged with American Emox Oil because the price of crude oil fell further, and it was to reduce losses. We are also affected here. Due to the impact of prices, there is still a funding gap of about 5 billion U.S. dollars, I hope you can help solve it." Then he said bitterly, "It is U.S. dollars, not Russian dollars."

Miko Miyamoto asked: "Someone in the United States is very dissatisfied with the deal between us. You should know this based on your intelligence network, right?"

"Yes, I know that," Mira said, "but the transactions between us are just normal business practices, why should you care about them."

"The problem is that more than one-third of my funds are in the United States," Miyamoto said.

"Speak,

"Mira said, "What conditions, I think it is gems. "

"You guys have a really good plan. When I want gems, give me crude oil, and save it later, and now I will trade gems." Miko Miyamoto said, "But there is no such thing as easy. I want gems because they are convenient. Storage, you should also know something about Zayer, I actually don’t lack gems.”

"Yes, that's why I traded with you with crude oil." Mira laughed.

"You should know that I am not short of crude oil." Miyamoto Miko said, "Mira, I don't owe you any favors now, and I have nothing to ask you for help. In the last crude oil transaction, the price you quoted was much higher than the market price, and I had to accept it in order to reduce losses, so I can't find a reason to convince myself to make this deal with you now."

After a moment of silence, Mira asked, "Is it really not possible? How about half the price?"

"Uh, half price?" Miyamoto Miko thought for a while and smiled, "Of course we can talk about half price, but it's only one billion dollars. This is the notice from over there."

"Okay, pay the bill first." Mira smiled.

"It's impossible," Miko Miyamoto said, "I won't trade without first appraising those goods."

"When will this be appraised?" Mira asked.

"God knows." Miko Miyamoto shrugged.

"Then it can't be half price." Mira said.

"Okay, from the perspective of occupying funds," Miko Miyamoto said, "At least 25% off, otherwise it's out of the question."

"I think you should send someone to talk to the people above me." Mira said.

"By the way, who did you find this time?" Miko Miyamoto asked.

"A lot." Mira said, "If possible, the country will adjust the investment policy again."

"How much money do you need?" Miko Miyamoto asked curiously.

"God knows." Mira said helplessly, "I only know that the money you paid for crude oil last time was not enough to pay the wages owed to the workers, far from enough."

"You are too powerful." Miyamoto Miko said with emotion.

"It's not that we are strong, but that prices have fallen sharply. I think if I knew this would happen, the parliament would not agree to adjust the investment policy. At least someone will share these losses with us." Mira said, "Forget it, what happened in the past It’s over, it’s beyond my control.” Then he asked, “How should I say it?”

"Call back," Miko Miyamoto said, "I'll let the people over there talk about it tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll go first," Mira said.

"Don't run away, keep your things, take them all out." Miko Miyamoto smiled.

"Sorry, I forgot." Mira took out four bugs from her body, put them on the buttons, on the belt, in the trouser pocket, and on the soles of the shoes.

"Only four?" Miko Miyamoto said, "Tell me the number."

"Yes, I only have four," Mira said.

"Well, you can go." Miko Miyamoto said.

"Goodbye." Mira picked up the bottle and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Miko Miyamoto.

"Bring the wine bottle." Miyamoto Miko hooked her fingers, "I was almost tricked by you."

"Okay." Mira smiled, drank the wine in one gulp, and left the bottle behind. There was indeed a bug in the bottom of the bottle.

Miko Miyamoto smiled and waved her hands, "You can go now."...

Friday, August 14, morning, Maori Detective Agency.

Sachiko Tanaka, Ishimoto Joji's secretary, sent the commission fee, and after sitting for a while, he left under Mouri's eager eyes.

"Too, too much, just leave like this." Mao Li said sadly.

"Dad!" Lan shouted very unhappy, and then changed the subject, "Dad, let's have a big meal at noon."

"Big meal?" Maori said, "No, the money has to be saved." Then he said, "I'm going to the bank." Then he left.

Lan blinked, very confused, when did Dad behave like this? But forget it, it's a good thing. ...

August 17th, Monday, morning, good mood, Miko Miyamoto's office.

Miko Miyamoto received a call from Misa Horiuchi. The Russian Central Bank suddenly announced that it would expand the floating range of the exchange rate between the Russian dollar and the U.S. dollar within the year. Debts denominated in Russian dollars would be restructured and recalculated, and foreign debts due in the next 90 days would be stopped. and currency futures contracts.

Miko Miyamoto thought for a while and asked, "Did the international financial speculators led by Double Eagle Fund fail in Hong Kong?"

"Yes, they are waiting for the funds invested in Russian bonds, and now they are all trapped, and most of their funds are obtained through financial leverage, and now they will suffer serious losses." Misa Horiuchi Said, "It can be said that the Asian financial crisis is coming to an end."

"You forgot one thing, those financial companies that guarantee their financial leverage." Miko Miyamoto said.

Horiuchi Misa smiled and said, "That's right, this is going to become a global storm."

Miko Miyamoto asked, "How about the yen?"

Misa Horiuchi said, "It's already broken one hundred and fifty."

"Prepare some funds, and someone from above should come to the door soon." Miko Miyamoto said, "You can figure out other aspects by yourself."

"I see." Horiuchi Misa smiled.

After hanging up the phone, Miko Miyamoto found Ji Ji, handed her over to deal with the people above, and asked her to prepare one million dollars in food.

"Food?" Ji Ji asked suspiciously.

Looking at the blue sky outside the window, Miko Miyamoto sighed: "Winter in Russia is coming soon."

"I understand, I will hand it over to Mira as soon as possible." Yan Ji said, and then left. ...

August 21, Friday, morning, good mood, Miko Miyamoto's office.

The morning papers published news about the U.S. military’s strikes on several places in Afghanistan with homing missiles yesterday, and news about a chemical pharmaceutical factory in Sudan that was suspected of producing explosives. There was also news about the fact that the Russian market had evaporated by 15% as of yesterday. , Continued to trigger news that stock indexes in many countries around the world fell.

Ji Ji came to report, "The above means let us invest as much as possible. I showed him the draft plan for the railway industry and retail industry made by the experts in the advisory group, including regional investment, railway extension, station front development, etc. He Already went back."

"Oh?" Miko Miyamoto asked, "Where is the plan?"

Ji Ji said: "I don't think it is good, and I have already rejected it. Those experts unanimously assessed that the Asian financial crisis will end, the economy will recover, and the domestic economy will also improve. In addition, the interest rate of Fengcai Bank is the highest in the country. Therefore, the funds absorbed are already close to 100 trillion yen, and there are more than 25 trillion yen of idle funds, so this plan was made. However, if this plan is implemented, I have not yet calculated how many years it will take to pay off the loan. Although theoretically it can be done in ten years, but the world is impermanent, such as Russia’s move, who would have expected it? And so far no organization has stood up to maintain the financial order, and they have all acquiesced.”

"It's because of his thicker arms." Miko Miyamoto smiled, "By the way, a new round of military competition might start from here, and we should pay attention to high-tech stocks."

"I'm talking serious." Ji Ji said angrily.

"I didn't say anything serious." Miko Miyamoto smiled, "Okay, I'm just kidding, sorry." Then he asked, "Then what do you think?"

Ji Ji said: "Our strength is finance, and we are not in a hurry. There is no need to move forward with a load. We just need to use our own funds to do it slowly. I will let them start over."

"I agree with your point of view, let Misa take those funds." Miyamoto Miko smiled, and then asked, "By the way, whose funds flowed into us?"

"All of them." Ji Ji smiled, "Thanks to us, the life of other domestic banks is not satisfactory."

Miyamoto Miko said: "This is good news. It can slow down the pace of the six major consortiums. They can't catch up with us for the time being."

Ji Ji smiled and said, "They also reported it to the Banking Association, but they ignored them."

"Of course, this is a good thing for ordinary people." Miko Miyamoto said, "Okay, if it's okay, you can go."

"Then I'm going back." Ji Ji leaned forward and said. ...

Monday, August 31, morning, Miyamoto's house, living room.

The international edition of the Morning Post carried news of a linking agreement between the London and Frankfurt stock exchanges and the start of digital television broadcasting in the UK.

Yamazaki said with a smile: "It has finally begun. The unified pace of the European market, although I don't know how long it will take, is always a good thing."

"That's right," Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "This way, some European staff can be withdrawn."

"Hey, mom, what is digital TV?" Mei Daizi asked.

"I only know that, simply put, I can use a bigger TV to watch TV programs more clearly." Miko Miyamoto said, "We have to wait until the end of the year."

At this time, Yuanzi's voice came, and Mei Daizi picked up her schoolbag and said, "Then, let's go, Mom, goodbye."...
