Chapter 366 It’s your own fault

I don’t recommend running naked for a month. I’m very depressed and my thoughts are stuck. Please bear with me and give me some motivation!

Of course, there are also institutions and banks that are not impressed by Hurricane Katrina. You must know that the United States is not called the hurricane home of the world for nothing.

In this country, several hurricanes make landfall almost every year. Louisiana, Florida, and Mississippi in the southeastern United States are almost the three states that hurricanes like to visit most.

Every year, there are at least three hurricanes in these three states. Although they cause a certain amount of economic losses, they are not serious.

Before the formation of Hurricane Katrina, the U.S. Hurricane Management Bureau actually issued a warning, but many people in these three states did not take the warning seriously.

And even the governors of several states were furious at the hurricane management office's warning, believing that it was an interference in their state's internal affairs. It was just a hurricane and there was no need to be nervous to that extent.

Although the U.S. Hurricane Management Bureau has issued the most severe warning to the governments of these three states, the politicians in these three states will not even bother with this bullshit management agency, which is not the FBI.

How dare you ask three states to evacuate their populations immediately?

Are you kidding me, evacuating the population of cities like Miami and New Orleans?

If the hurricane comes and is not as severe as expected, can you afford the consequences?

If the population is evacuated, who will be responsible for the losses? The governor and state legislators have a clear plan. Not to mention the losses caused by the evacuation, it is the cost of evacuating the population.

It's not something these states can afford.

By then, if the hurricane comes and is not that powerful at all, the disappointed people alone may be able to tear them into pieces!

So when the U.S. Hurricane Management Bureau issued warnings for these three states, the governors and politicians of these three states also sang for you, and we came on stage, most of them doing some advertisements on TV to help people.

, painted peacefully.

There are also some people with other agendas who spread different opinions everywhere to challenge the current ruling authorities.

Anyway, the various news media in the United States are quite lively these days. Politicians from all sides are arguing and bickering with each other, but few are actually doing anything.

Of course, this also reflects one of the shortcomings of American-style democracy. After all, the United States has been the number one in the world for too long, and the American people are used to being delicate and expensive.

, Americans with delicate bodies and expensive bodies really can’t afford it.

Even if they want to make trouble, the state governments in these states can't afford it, so they just talk on TV news, and it's all thunder.

Heavy raindrops and small things.

As for Americans in other places, they either don't care about politics, or they just wait to watch the fun with popcorn. The ignorant people watching don't care about the life and death of the people in the three southeastern continents. They only care about the hurricane.

Whether he comes back or not depends on how big the impact will be after he comes.

When Jin Xiaoqiang and the others started taking action on the 20th, not many people in the United States were paying attention to Hurricane Katrina. But by the 24th, as the wording of the warnings issued by the U.S. Hurricane Management Bureau became more and more severe, these three

Politicians from every state rushed to appear on television screens to refute the rumors.

Now, the hurricane that is about to land in the United States has attracted the attention of Americans, and some relatively sensitive financial institutions have also responded accordingly. Some are afraid that the hurricane will bring huge economic losses to the United States.

, so we are implementing emergency hedging policies.

Others simply do not believe that this hurricane will cause too much damage to the United States, and are planning to speculate in the financial market.

All of a sudden, the empty and long positions in the oil futures market were hiding. Those who were long believed that this hurricane would bring considerable losses to the United States, and were worried that the offshore oil fields in the southwest would be affected by this hurricane.

The hurricane caused damage and production shutdown, so oil prices are bullish.

The short sellers are betting that this hurricane is just another of the old 'crying wolf' tricks, a false alarm, and that everyone else is neurotic.

Once the hurricane passes safely without having any impact on the oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico, the future trend of international oil prices will still enter a downward trajectory step by step.

As for Jin Xiaoqiang and his Thunderbird Company, they were completely turned off at this time and focused solely on long oil.

At the beginning, many company employees didn't know why their boss was going crazy betting that oil prices would rise. But now everyone has basically understood that the boss was betting that hurricanes would severely damage oil production in the Gulf of Mexico.

ah!

With a clear goal, everyone has a certain degree of confidence. After all, this is much stronger than the previous random collision with headless flies. Although everyone does not know how powerful Katrina is, since

The boss believes that this hurricane will bring huge income to everyone, so why don't you follow the boss? After all, it is the boss's money that is spent, and we are just wage earners.

At 18:30 on the evening of the 25th, Hurricane Katrina officially landed in Florida, USA. When they learned the news, everyone in the company gathered in front of the TV wall on the first floor of the company, watching CNN, ABC and other news channels. From the scene

Reports sent back about the hurricane.

When everyone saw the terrifying hurricane, setting off waves several meters high, surging ashore and destroying everything in its path, several people in the company actually cheered.

But soon, the entire company fell into silence. After all, this is the United States, and it is the American people who are affected by the disaster. Many people think of their compatriots who are suffering in the disaster areas. Some believers of the Lord still seem to behave well at this time.

I drew a cross on my chest and prayed for my compatriots in the disaster area...

Jin Xiaoqiang, on the other hand, stood in the office on the second floor, looking at the people below, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved up in a disdainful smile.

Alice next to her looked at Jin Xiaoqiang with a strange expression, feeling very conflicted.

On the one hand, she knew that her boss had made the right bet again, but on the other hand, when she saw so many people suffering from the disaster, she felt very sad. After all, the victims were innocent.

The news on the TV kept flashing some live reports from Miami, Florida.

It can be seen from the TV screen that the highway out of the city is already crowded with vehicles. The convoys are slowly driving towards the direction of the city. There are crowded traffic everywhere. On the windy and rainy highway, there are even

Many teams chose to escape on foot because the cars were too slow. As a result, the team traveled even slower.

What everyone sees on TV is an apocalyptic scene. The highway is full of crowded cars, and people are walking forward in despair in the wind and rain.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling very sad?"

Jin Xiaoqiang turned around and saw the conflicting look on Alice's face.

"I don't know, boss, I just think..."

Alice didn't know what to say at this time.

"What do you think? Do you think these people are pitiful?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked with a sneer full of disdain.

"Yes, boss!"

Alice raised her head, looked at Jin Xiaoqiang with firm eyes and replied.

"We Chinese people have an old saying that those who are called pitiable must be hateful! These people look very pitiful now, but before this, the US Hurricane Management Bureau has issued warnings to these places several times, and every time they are more...

It was harsh, but what were these people doing at that time? They didn't do anything? Even if some people wanted to escape, but were unable to escape, do you really believe that they couldn't even spare a few dollars for a long-distance bus?

"

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Alice in a persuasive manner. When Alice heard what Jin Xiaoqiang said, she felt a little better. Yeah, who can blame this?

Are they really unable to pay a few bucks for bus fare? You must know that traveling by plane in the United States to some places not far away only costs one or two hundred yuan. This two hundred yuan is enough for them.

Fleeed to a safe place.

The United States is a well-known place with high labor costs. Those so-called poor people really only need to be willing to endure hardships, put down their dignity, and do some hard work. Alice really doesn't believe it. They don't even have a few hundred dollars.

"This has something to do with their lifestyle. For so many years, Americans have been living a life of eating and drinking. You can investigate, how many of them save money? When they make money, they go to drink or have fun. Money

If they don't have enough, they use their credit cards, and the US government pays credit for them and borrows money from all over the world. Their life is not only overdrafting their own future, but even overdrafting the future of the whole world!"

When he said this, Jin Xiaoqiang's expression became more determined, because in his opinion, the American people may not be all bad-hearted, but their way of life is overdrawing the whole world, and their

Their lifestyle makes them, in Jin Xiaoqiang's view, more like a leech attached to people all over the world!

Therefore, a large part of the current scene can be attributed to their own fault, and they deserve it!

A few years later, it was their crazy overdraft behavior that triggered a global financial crisis, which not only suffered for them, but also affected people in many other countries around the world.

In his previous life, Jin Xiaoqiang was also one of the victims of these American leeches, so in his opinion, these people are not worthy of pity at all!
