Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

  Chapter 38 Going to Kuwait

   Having witnessed the relationship between Yang Chen and Xue Yufei with his own eyes, He Chaoqiong knew that it was impossible for him to separate them from each other.

  Since the two cannot be separated, He Chaoqiong has only two options left, one is to leave on his own initiative, and the other is to join in.

   Anyway, there are many polygamous families in Xiangjiang, not to mention the rich and famous, even ordinary people, there are many polygamous families.

   It’s no problem to integrate into it, as long as He Chaoqiong is willing, Yang Chen will obviously not refuse.

   But the question is, as the beloved daughter of the gambling king, can the family behind her and her father, the gambling king, agree?

   Needless to say, according to He Gambling King's character and status, it is absolutely impossible to watch his daughter share the same man with another woman.

  Unless this man is better than him and has more power than him.

  Only if you are not afraid of the threat of He Gambling King, can He Gamble King compromise.

   Thinking of this, He Chaoqiong's mind couldn't help but come alive, and he began to think about how to use his identity to help Yang Chen grow up as soon as possible.

After getting the two girls, Yang Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The reason why he asked the two girls to help him find someone was mainly because he could only trust the two girls now, or in other words, he only trusted the two girls' feelings for him, and believed in them. Do not do anything against your own interests.

   As for why he didn't go looking for it himself, the reason is very simple, that is, he is still in an embarrassing stage where he has no foundation, no power, and even his status is a lot worse than that of two women.

   In this case, instead of recruiting a few crooked melons and jujubes, it is better to let the two women use their identities and family backgrounds to help him find enough people.

   As for why he didn't find a securities firm or bank to provide a trader, the reason is also very simple, that is, Yang Chen doesn't want to be affected or interfered by external uncertainties when he acts.

   He doesn't want his every step to be clearly seen by others. He can let others know that he has made money, but how much and how to operate. He doesn't want others to know more than him.

   Capitalists are all black-hearted, and he doesn't mind using his greatest malice to doubt, speculate and guard against the capitalists' intentions.

   When he has no power base, he must consider the safety of every step he takes.

   He can go a long way only by ensuring his own safety and not being hurt. If he has a wealthy family to rely on when he arrives, then he doesn't have to worry about these issues.

   Now that he doesn't have it, naturally he can only take every step under his feet cautiously.

   As for saying that he can rely on Father Xue, even so, he doesn't want to rely on anyone. Why do he have to rely on others for things he can do?

   As for asking Xue Yufei and He Chaoqiong to help him recruit people, there is nothing to say, both women have already been appointed by Yang Chen, they should help, this is their duty.

  The soft rice is fragrant, delicious and not sticky, everyone deserves it.

  …

  Three days later, Yang Chen, who had returned from Haojiang, boarded the plane and left Xiangjiang after the two daughters were reluctant to leave.

   On this trip, he is not going to the United States, nor to the United Kingdom, nor to the mainland, but to a small country in the Middle East.

   That’s right, it’s the Middle East, the place where sand and oil coexist.

   Of course, where he went this time was not to blow yellow sand, nor to dig for oil, but to buy stocks.

  Yes, you read that right, Yang Chen is going to the Middle East to buy stocks this time.

How about it? Isn't God amazing? Are you surprised?

   In other words, in the 1980s, Hong Kong’s economy was just beginning to transform, and it was not yet the third largest financial center in the world.

   And do you know where the third largest stock market in the world was in the 1980s? I'm afraid everyone won't believe it.

   That's right, it was the destination of Yang Chen's trip, Kuwait, a small country in the Middle East.

  The stock market, everyone knows that it is a place where wealth gathers, and it is also a place full of bubbles.

   As the saying goes, whoever God wants to die, must first make him crazy.

   And where were the craziest stock exchanges of the 1980s? There is none like the Kuwait Soukal-Manakh Exchange.

  Speaking of Kuwait and the Middle East, the first thing people think of must be oil and US dollars.

  In 1961, after Kuwait became independent, like many Middle Eastern countries, the whole country had nothing but countless yellow sands on the ground, and was even poorer than Africa.

   In our words, there is a place where birds don’t shit, and almost all the money earned by the whole country is used to buy food for living.

  It is fair to say that God is also fair. Although it has fed the Kuwaiti people with yellow sand for a lifetime, it has also given them a chance to get rich overnight.

  In the mid-to-late 1970s, the oil crisis broke out, which in turn drove the entire oil price to skyrocket. Oil was equivalent to gold and equivalent to US dollars.

   Now, the total reserves of crude oil ranks among the top in the world, and Kuwait, which has the world's largest per capita reserves, has become rich overnight from being impoverished.

  The Kuwaiti, who once ran camels, ushered in his spring.

  What are the consequences of getting rich overnight, everyone must know that the Kuwaiti people who used to live miserably have money in their hands, and the upstart temperament is just blowing.

If this person has money, of course, he has to spend it. If he doesn’t spend it and directly deposit it in the bank, it’s okay to say that this one or two yuan is saved in the bank. Only a fool can do it. matter.

   And are Kuwaitis stupid? Obviously, they were just poor before, but people are definitely not stupid.

   A person is afraid of being poor. After having money, in addition to luxury enjoyment, he naturally wants to have more and more money so that he can continue to enjoy the life he can enjoy now.

   As the saying goes, people are poor and have short ambitions. What are the indirect consequences of short ambitions?

  The vision is not wide enough

  Kuwaitis want to make more money with their money, so where should the money go?

  Industry? Don't look at the joke, you let a poor man from a camel's background invest in something that has a long cycle and slow returns, you might as well just grab the money directly from him.

   Moreover, managing a business is such a brain-intensive job that, to be honest, they can’t do it at all.

  Like many people in Hong Kong before 1973, when these wealthy uncles saw that the stock market was profitable, many of them finally chose to invest in the stock market.

  In the eyes of all early investors, stocks are not only high-end and high-end, but also make money quickly.

   For Kuwaitis, there is another benefit of investing in the stock market, and that is safety.

   From 1976 to 1977, there was a stock market panic in Kuwait. The government, whose pockets were full of oil and US dollars, saw the stock market panic, and directly invested money to stabilize the stock market.
