The jeep drove fast, and it didn't take long to reach its destination. Today's Xishan has not been fully developed, not to mention those high-end villa areas in later generations, even ordinary residents are relatively rare, and most of the mountainous areas still maintain natural landscapes. To have a somewhat vague meaning.
In front of the car is the gate of the military area's cadre rest center. This is the real general-level veteran cadre's rest center. The entrance is the double post and double post with live ammunition. It looks like idlers are not allowed to enter. Next to the heavily guarded guards stood a young man in civilian clothes. Even if the clothes are not thin, the early spring in this mountain is still cold enough. I saw that he had both hands in his pockets, the scarf was wrapped tightly enough, and the tip of his nose was still a little red from the cold. I don't know how long he waited.
Seeing the jeep, the man's eyes lit up and he took a few steps forward.
"It came quite fast." He opened the car door with a smile, Xiao Junyi simply got into the car and sat beside Chen Yuanming.
With this action, a cold wind also drifted into the car, Chen Yuanming frowned slightly, "Why are you waiting here?"
"It's the sentry, it's always easier to pick up people." Xiao Junyi smiled nonchalantly, waved to the driver, and let the car drive in. "Sorry, I was planning to go to the courtyard, but the old man suddenly came back from Beidaihe. I didn't know where I heard the news that you were coming, so I had to meet. When people get old, they always say that wind and rain, and no one will take it. There's nothing he can do, don't take offense..."
"It's my honor to see the old man." That's why he knew the phone call in the morning. Chen Yuanming didn't mind, but he didn't have much contact with the elders of his grandparents since he was a child, and it was somewhat awkward.
Xiao Junyi seemed to see the restraint that Chen Yuanming was pressing inside, and the curved peach blossom eyes hooked up, "Don't worry, I'm here. Although the old man is a gunnery, he has hurt me the most since he was a child. good."
This sounded a bit weird, Chen Yuanming glanced at the other party and nodded lightly. The car drove into the dry rest house, and there was still a straight road inside, which was much more spacious than expected. Every family is a garden house layout, and the small second floors are distributed under the flower wall, which looks unique and has sufficient privacy. It was just that it was too cold and no one could be seen on the road, so I drove straight to the second floor of a small building in the northwest corner.
Xiao Junyi jumped out of the car first, "Come this way, the old man is still practicing swordsmanship in the small garden, let's have a look first."
When I got out of the car, I felt that it was not as cold as the outside. Maybe it was a unique layout of the building. Although it was still very cold in the early spring of Beijing, there was a little warmth in the yard. As soon as I walked around the small building, I saw an old man dancing a long sword in the open space in the garden at the back. The routine was not the kind of slow, swinging Tai Chi that old people often practice. The sword, but the actual number of martial arts, although it can't be called splashing water, it is also a flash of blue light, and it looks a bit windy and thunderous.
Seeing Chen Yuanming's slightly surprised eyes, Xiao Junyi showed a smile, "Are you surprised? The old man is a close disciple of Cangzhou Yang School Xingyiquan. He joined the army with his brothers during the revolution at the age of 18. It's a pity that he fought for a few years. After coming down, a group of people died and injured, the old man felt uncomfortable, and he refused to let go of the kung fu in his hands, which was a bit like inheriting the master's sect. It's a pity that he started his apprenticeship too early, and he felt that he could not learn the true teaching, and he refused to When apprenticeships are made public, they will catch the males of the family to practice, except that I was too skinny when I was a child, and everyone in the family can more or less have both hands."
"I really didn't expect that." Chen Yuanming blinked, the republic's father who had just made up his mind just turned into a martial arts senior with immortal style, no one would be a little off. After a pause, he asked hesitantly, "Then we..."
"Don't worry, just stand and watch. The old man likes to show it to others."
Xiao Junyi's words didn't seem to be false. The two stood outside the arena, and the sword in the old man's hand seemed to be shaking a little bit again. After finishing a set of sword moves, he took over the scabbard held by the guard. With a flick of one hand, the long sword was retracted into the scabbard. After passing the handed towel, he wiped his face and turned to look at the two of them.
"Is this the boy surnamed Chen?" As soon as he opened his mouth, the style of the martial arts senior was blown out of the sky. The old man's voice was unexpectedly loud and strong, his eyes were wide open, and with two thick sword eyebrows, his eyes were even brighter. There is a god, plus that posture and bearing, it is full of "chief" style.
Taking a step forward, Chen Yuanming bowed slightly, "Hello Mr. Xiao, I am Chen Yuanming."
Two electric gazes locked on him, circled up and down, the old man nodded slightly, touched the short stubble on his chin, "You're younger than I thought, you're good. Go, sit in the room. "
Hearing this, both of them were stunned. Chen Yuanming didn't expect to be praised when he came up, while Xiao Junyi rarely saw anyone who could ask his old man to ask, but after a pause, he blinked at Chen Yuanming. Blinking his eyes, he followed the old man into the house.
It is now the end of February, and the heating has been turned off in Beijing, but the floor heating still seems to be running in the room, which is a bit warmer than the garden. Liu Lanxin is sitting in the living room, gossiping with the old lady, and seeing three people walking in , she stood up immediately.
"Oh, Yuanming has arrived. Come and let the old lady take a look. I was talking about you just now."
Compared with the old man, the old lady looks a little older, her hair is silver and her face is wrinkled, but her smile is very warm. Reaching out a thin hand, the old lady grabbed Chen Yuanming's hand and pulled him to her side, "You're so young, do you have a king? After listening to the eldest daughter-in-law talking for so long, I thought it was a big guy. Well, I didn't expect to be a child, it's not easy..."
The dry hand patted the back of his hand twice, with a little pity. Chen Yuanming only felt that his heart was slightly touched, and the strings that were still tense just now suddenly loosened, and replied a little embarrassedly, "It's my aunt who praised me..."
"It's all home, so what are you being humble about?" Liu Lanxin smiled and pressed Chen Yuanming down on the sofa, "I heard that you didn't go back for the New Year this year, so you've been running outside?"
"Well, I've been too busy for the past two months, so I couldn't come to visit during the Chinese New Year..."
"If you want to go back, you should go back to your own home." Liu Lanxin said softly, "I have also heard about what happened some time ago. It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people, but it's just such a big thing, don't worry about it. Carrying a man on his shoulders, Xiao Sun is a very good person, you should cooperate more..."
"They're all home, and they said what to do with these official duties." The old lady glared at her daughter-in-law, grabbed a handful of candy on the small table and handed it to Chen Yuanming, "Children love to eat candy, this is the third child of my family. The foreign hard candies brought back are sweet to eat."
"Grandma, I've been here for a long time, and you still don't give me a candy? This is too partial~~" Xiao Junyi sat down next to Chen Yuanming, and smiled and grabbed a candy from his hand, Peel it off and put it in your mouth.
"You kid, when did I miss you!" The old lady smiled and slapped Xiao Junyi, obviously being favored by this coquettish act.
At this time, the old man also came in with a hand pot, sucking the tea. "I heard what Lao Qian said about the mine. What does it mean?"
"Hey, you can't do without work for three sentences. You haven't been a leader in your life! You have to report to work before your ass is hot..." Hearing her husband's words, the old lady was quite dissatisfied. He glanced.
However, the old man sat on the sofa nonchalantly, "You only listen to the top-down when you listen to the play? It's been written down for a few days, and none of the old guys in the courtyard can explain it. I can't ask if the master is here. ask?"
Chen Yuanming smiled and rounded up, "It doesn't matter, I only know about the mining industry, so let's talk about a joke to Er Lao..."
At this time, there is still some time before the meal time. There is such a topic to talk about, and Chen Yuanming is naturally happy. He didn't bring too much key information. He simply organized and explained the basic knowledge about the industry that he knew. Regarding the metal species required by the industry, the distribution of minerals worldwide, the current and future domestic material shortages, and a little bit of the international situation.
The words were as simple and easy to understand as possible, and there were also some introductions to the economic situation. After hearing this, even the old lady became more attentive. From time to time, some strange questions popped up, but it was quite lively. The seven lectures and eight lectures lasted almost an hour. When it finally came to an end, the old man put down the teapot in his hand and sighed, "The heart of American imperialism will not die..."
Chen Yuanming smiled and replied calmly, "It's more than an American family. Today, the earth is like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period for two thousand years. Everyone has the mind to compete in the world. We can only learn from the King of Yue, Goujian, and work hard to get ahead. shame."
"Haha, well said. I have made a revolution all my life, not to cut meat for Japanese devils and Yankees!" As if thinking of something, the old man slapped his thigh and shouted at the guard, "Old Zhao sent it. As for the bottle of Maotai, take it out for me and drink it at noon today!"
Seeing that the old lady and daughter-in-law wanted to stop him, the old man glared at him, "Isn't it okay if I give Xiao Chen a drink, I'll hear it!"
The last two words were spoken so powerfully that several people suddenly laughed together. The topic was not so serious and turned into an ordinary chat. About the situation at home, about studies and life, Xiao Junyi sat on the sofa, watching Chen Yuanming's more and more relaxed back, and the corners of his eyes and lips. With a smile, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and also showed a hint of a smile.
When it was time for lunch, Xiao Yun also rushed back from the company, and the family sat down at the dining table to eat. The wine is really Maotai, but Xiao Yun, Xiao Junyi, Chen Yuanming, and even Liu Lanxin are not bad at drinking. One glass is full, so he only left a bottle for the old man to smell. Seeing the other party's dejected expression, The old lady also ran him a few words cheerfully, which attracted a lot of laughter.
The dishes on the dinner table are more simple than expected, they are all authentic home-cooked dishes, but the taste is really good. It's just that Xiao Yun was routinely reprimanded by the old man again, and thanks to Liu Lanxin's help, he was able to get out of the siege. It sounds like the PHS business and the newly established China Unicom are catching up. Everyone is evenly matched in the backstage. bigger. However, this thing is really not something that Chen Yuanming can talk about. He has always maintained the principle of eating more and talking less.
After the meal, the two elders were all people who were going to take a nap, and they both said goodbye after finishing Xiaoshi, while Chen Yuanming was called out to talk by Liu Lanxin alone.
Chen Yuanming was not too surprised by this call. It was originally Liu Lanxin's appointment for this meeting, but he didn't expect to talk about hedge funds in the United States, but the domestic futures market.
"A few days ago, the Ministry of Finance announced the interest rate discount plan for this year's treasury bills, and the interest rate was finally raised. The bet is finally settled."
The opening remarks were clean and neat, which also made Chen Yuanming's heart hang involuntarily. Although the discussion of Eurobonds has affected some public opinion trends, it has not stopped the black hands of China Economic Development. The Ministry of Finance chose to raise interest rates at the last moment. There are not many empty people. This group of real rich people was not willing to lose their old bottom, so they teamed up to stage a drama that forced them to reach Liangshan, and they just played a large-scale air squeeze with Zhongjing, who had a favorable location and people.
However, due to the downfall of Liao Guofa, the large and small rat warehouses and empty orders in the market have converged, and those who joined the China Economic Development camp have insufficient strength, and many parties have been forced to a dead end. In the end, on February 24, China Economic Development suddenly threw a large order into the market, and the price of government bonds jumped from about 137.5 to 148.3 yuan. The price change of nearly ten yuan a day made many people fall into madness. Let the Shanghai Stock Exchange change its color. The next day, several veteran brokerages in Shanghai jointly filed a lawsuit against the China Economic and Trade Commission on the China Securities Regulatory Commission, which caused a lot of uproar.
At this time, the news that Barings Bank announced bankruptcy and liquidation came, which shocked the world. This bankruptcy case caused by internal personnel fraud has greatly shocked the sensitive nerves of the domestic political and economic circles, and the attitude towards the 327 national debt case has also been promoted to a higher level. In the end, after multiple investigations, China Economic Development did illegally throw out huge empty orders on February 24, and several major securities companies in Shanghai were also convicted of the same crime because their positions exceeded the legal limit. At present, the above means to forcibly liquidate the position, but the attitude of both parties is very strong, the liquidation price cannot be negotiated, and it is still in the process of tearing.
"Who would have thought they would make such a big deal." Liu Lanxin sighed softly, "It's pretty much as you guessed, the impact of interest rate hikes on the bond market is unexpectedly terrible. Now that the domestic market is so chaotic, the above The attitude towards the international copper futures you are going to have is much clearer, and the opinions that support this time are in the majority. If CEIK loses this battle, there will be a grain shortage in the Ministry of Finance when the treasury bills are cashed in June, which is 16 A big hole of 100 million..."
For such support, Chen Yuanming felt some unspeakable bitterness in his heart. Although the current 327 incident is very different from what happened in history, no matter how small the bad influence is, it is still a bad influence, isn't it? After hesitating for a moment, Chen Yuanming asked in a low voice, "Then what do you mean..."
Liu Lanxin asked back, "Can copper futures make money, right?"
"Yes." Chen Yuanming answered quite simply. "Now Guoxing may have made a profit of 15%, about 300 million US dollars."
"So much?" Liu Lanxin snorted softly, "What about the entire hedging process?"
"It shouldn't be a problem to double." Chen Yuanming replied calmly, "But money is still a small problem. If Director Sun's operations are done properly, the harvested minerals will be the bulk."
"That's good..." Liu Lanxin finally showed a smile, "but I still can't relax. Whether it is Yuanyang or Guoxing, we must be invincible, and we must be more cautious. As for the issuance of national bonds you mentioned earlier The auction system, I also talked to the above twice, the 329 national debt that is still in circulation has become a one-sided bull, the price has risen to 159 yuan, and the national debt is only 148 yuan, where is the money posted to these buyers? . . . this treasury bond futures may also come to an end... "
Liu Lanxin's tone brought out a bit of desolation, and it was even more desolate when coupled with the winter scenery of the lonely mountain in the distance. But no one knows better than Chen Yuanming that this is already a result that is much better than the original. After a while, he finally said softly, "Don't worry, Auntie, there is no problem with the United States. If you need it, you can also add a few people's funds."
Looking at Chen Yuanming in surprise, Liu Lanxin smiled, reached out and patted his arm, "Silly boy, where did you want to go? It's just that things have a beginning and an end, so you can't be kept in the dark. As long as the copper side works well, There will always be a time for you to stand firm. Besides, making money depends on your ability, let them get angry first, we don’t need to be afraid of those people with our current wealth.”
This remark once again exceeded Chen Yuanming's expectations, and it was only then that he realized that he was really accepted and protected by this family. Including the attitude of the old man, including this high-profile trip to the dry rest, including Liu Lanxin's sincere conversation... They are no longer the relationship of the community of interests, but become "own people".
It's not clear which aspect played a decisive role, but such genuine kindness adds warmth to the heart. Chen Yuanming nodded lightly and showed a smile. "I understand, thank you auntie."
In the living room here, there is a tacit conversation of one answer and one harmony. In the garden over there, Xiao Yun is a little depressed, smoking a cigarette, and looking at his eldest nephew who is unable to let go. I've only been standing for 20 fucking minutes, and I have turned my head seventeen or eight times. It's your mother over there, not a man-eating monster, okay
Breathing out a smoke ring, Xiao Yun gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence, "Third Young Master, you threw me into the company to work overtime today, what are you doing back here?"
Xiao Junyi glanced at his uncle, "Of course, it's to take care of the old man and the old lady. It's okay to be open for a long time late."
Yo, you're still panting when you say you're fat! Xiao Yun almost laughed angrily, "Isn't it true, you've been so busy these days, you have to spare some time to entertain your relatives with colorful clothes, right? Why, I haven't been hanging out with those fox friends recently, and I want to steal it. Have some fun?"
The tone of the words was a little out of place, and now Xiao Junyi completely understood the taste, and raised his eyebrows, "Uncle, why didn't I understand what you meant?"
