Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

"Carter, is something wrong?"

In the living room, Carter's unusual behavior not only attracted the attention of the Kazim brothers, but also the three old guys who were smoking, drinking, and talking about gang affairs in the restaurant.

Standing behind the sofa in the living room, looking at Carter, who was frowning and thinking, waiting quietly...

"Ah? It's not a big deal. It's just that the rise in silver is strange and unreasonable. But for us, it's also a good thing. If you have silver or silver jewelry in your hands, you should be able to sell well during this period.

price!"

Feeling the suddenly quiet environment, Carter smiled after waking up and signaled to everyone that it was nothing serious.

Carter dared to assert that someone was behind the abnormal rise in silver prices! Speaking of which, he himself had gone to the New York Stock Exchange to see it, and even performed a small operation with the help and guidance of Julian.

Naturally, we understand that if we want to increase the transaction price of a commodity, there is only one way, and that is to increase demand! When demand increases, and the supply side cannot keep up, the unit price will naturally rise.

It is easy to say and the logic is very simple, but will the market demand increase easily? There are only so many households and factories that need silver, and the annual demand is generally stable. It is simply not enough to increase the demand in a short period of time.

Within a few days, the price of silver will double!

Then this increase in demand is very strange. Even if a new factory is built that requires a lot of silver, it will take time from the time you build the factory, to the increase in production, to the new production workshops one after another.

!

It is completely impossible to say that a large amount of silver will be used in a one-time and very sudden manner. If it is in China, there is still a slight possibility, such as the construction of a key national project that requires massive silver support, so the silver price skyrockets.

etc...

But in the United States, this is absolutely impossible to happen. This country naturally does not have such great organizational and mobilization capabilities. To put it harshly, it is a mess...

At least before there was a war involving the local area, I did not feel the pressure of life and death. This country and its people cannot organize and mobilize so efficiently!

Thinking about it this way, Carter's thinking became much clearer. Since real demand will not increase, what about fake demand? Who would create fake demand?

Speculator!

It can only be speculators, but this speculator, or in other words, this group of speculators, seems to be making a bit of noise...

"Really? Gabriel, did you hear what Carter said? Do we have any silver jewelry at home?"

After hearing Carter's words, Duke touched his chin, then turned around and asked.

"Silver jewelry... When we got married, you gave me a silver necklace, but nothing else seems to have happened."

"Ahem... take it first and show it to Carter. If it's valuable, we can sell it first and exchange it for a bigger one for you later! No, exchange it for gold!"

A silver necklace weighs only one ounce. It was bought when they got married. Looking at Kazim's age, it was not difficult for Carter to calculate the approximate year and month when Duke and Duke got married, and the price of silver during that period...

It seems like it’s only about $2 per ounce?

Thinking this way, it seems that the price has dropped a bit, huh? No wonder Duke's face looks a little embarrassed...

"Forget it. Didn't you listen to what was said on TV? The price of gold is now over 500 US dollars an ounce. If you have this money to waste, you might as well return it to Carter. The bail will be refunded, but the lawyer's fees will still be paid by others.

!”

Mrs. Duke cursed and went upstairs to get the necklace, leaving Duke looking at Carter in embarrassment:

"Carter... don't worry, I have no intention of defaulting on my debt. You live in the south of the city and don't know. Everyone here in the west of the city knows that I, Duke, never owe anyone..."

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter. Uncle Duke, I understand. Besides, Kazim and I are also good friends. I'm not in a hurry to use this money. I can pay it back whenever it's convenient for you."

Carter smiled and waved his hand. His mind was not on asking for legal fees. In other words, Carter never thought about asking for the legal fees. Using a legal fee to exchange for the debt that Kazim felt towards him was equivalent to exchanging

Here comes the comfort of campus for the next two years.

I have to get this business!

In addition, after realizing that the price of silver was rising abnormally and judging that someone was doing something, Carter subconsciously wondered if he should get involved.

But soon, Carter realized that he had no money now! No, to be precise, there was no shortage of small money, but there was no shortage of big money. And without a large amount of spare funds as principal, investing a little money would be the increase in silver.

What's the use of doubling it again?

Twenty thousand into forty thousand? Then during the period when the silver price rises and sells off after the rise, the whole family drinks the northwest wind together?

"That's it, Carter, do you think this is worth anything? If it's worth something, just take it and treat it as our family repaying your legal fees first. Duke and I will discuss the difference later.

I’ll pay you back little by little!”

Mrs. Duke, who came downstairs with the necklace, didn't even bother Duke. She walked straight to Carter, handed him the necklace, and said.

"No, Mrs. Duke! This is your wedding anniversary, I can't take it! I just said casually, if you don't want to sell it, you might as well keep it. Silver is valuable, but feelings are priceless!"

Quickly pushing back Mrs. Duke's hand, Carter silently wiped away the non-existent cold sweat.

I don’t want this thing! If I ask for it, it becomes a deal. I plan to use favors to tie up Kazim. How can I accept the necklace? Besides, I don’t lack this thing, right?

Although small private banks these days are not giants, their owners are definitely the most...rich people in the local area.

The price of silver was not high before, so Jenny bought a lot of these gadgets that Carter thought were useless. Not only she, but Anna and Melis also had a lot of them.

"Okay, it's almost time, and it's time for me to say goodbye. Uncle Duke, Duledrick, and Uncle Barry, I'm going back first. Jenny will be anxious if I don't go back. You guys can play first!"

Pushing back Mrs. Duke's hand, Carter stood up, twisted up his schoolbag, and planned to escape. Knowing that it would not be a good thing to leave Carter in the black neighborhood if it was too late, Duke did not refuse and quickly joined his two old friends.

, sent Carter out of the house.

Before Carter got into the car, Duledric suddenly said:

"Carter, recently, keep the doors and windows closed at night! The street may be uneasy..."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

This nonsense sentence made Carter stop twisting the key and preparing to start the ignition. He turned his head and looked out the car window suspiciously...

"It's no big deal. Didn't we talk about the incident at the Olvik Beer Hall before? O'Neil's little brother was screwed. With his character, he will definitely not let it go. He will probably take someone to the south to find him in the next few days.

The trouble with red necks..."
