Chapter 1011 Currency Crisis
"Xiaohui, grandma has a heartfelt request. I hope you can get engaged to the youngest son of the Ma family in Nanyang."
Mrs. Guo looked directly into her granddaughter's eyes and said.
The Nanyang Majia family is a prominent local family, with industries covering banking, transportation, communications and other fields.
The rubber king that Jiang Hua dealt with in the past was a branch of the Ma family.
"The youngest son of the Ma family, he seems to be thirty years older than me. I heard he is still a playboy?"
Guo Yunhui's eyes widened in disbelief.
In her impression, although grandma was partial, she was pretty good to her. She never expected that the other party would make such a decision today.
"Grandma knows that I feel wronged by you, but the Guo family is now facing a life and death decision. As a member of the family, you should also contribute to the family."
Mrs. Guo's tone of voice today was quite strong, completely different from the past.
"I don't agree."
Guo Yunhui bit her lip stubbornly.
She has been pampered since she was a child, and having her marry a man who is thirty years older than her is simply more uncomfortable than killing her.
"I'm not negotiating with you, butler, take Yunhui back to the room to have a good rest. Also, contact the Ma family and tell me, Lu Xiangyun, to sweep the bed and wait for her."
Old Mrs. Guo waved her hand, and several servants came over and forcibly took Guo Yunhui away.
"Grandma, I won't marry!"
Guo Yunhui struggled and shouted, but no one in Nuo Da's courtyard could help her.
After Jiang Hua returned to Bao's house, he did not rest. Instead, he called He Zhanbo over and asked him about the changes in the Hong Kong stock market during the days he was trapped.
"Mr. Jiang, this is a big game played by Morgan. In the past week, the other party has lent huge amounts of Hong Kong dollars to major banks in Hong Kong."
He Zhanbo stood in the study, carefully reporting on the trends in the financial world during this period.
"Have you found out how much they borrowed in total?"
Jiang Hua's eyelids jumped and he borrowed a huge amount of funds from the bank. He was very familiar with this trick. In his previous life, Lao Suo used this trick to short the Thai baht, which subsequently triggered a financial crisis that swept Southeast Asia.
Although the time and place are different now, the same method is enough to arouse Jianghua's vigilance.
"The major banks are very confidential about this information. Preliminary estimates suggest it should be more than 10 billion."
He Zhanbo said seriously.
It is undoubtedly a fantasy for ordinary people to borrow tens of billions of dollars from banks, but the Morgan consortium has this credibility.
The banks are even eager for the other party to borrow more, and then the interest on the loan will make all the major banks grin from ear to ear.
"Is there any movement from Morgan in the stock market?"
Jiang Hua frowned and continued to ask.
He doesn't like this kind of financial confrontation, because it's not his area of expertise, and it doesn't give him the advantage of foresight.
"They've been sneaking in. Their movements are very secretive, and there aren't many clues we can find."
He Zhanbo said feeling stressed.
"Thank you for your hard work. In addition to paying attention to the stock market, you also need to keep an eye on the changes in the currency exchange rate market."
Jiang Hua explained solemnly.
Although he does not specialize in finance, he also knows that the debt ratios of major banks in Hong Kong are currently very high. Due to the booming development of real estate, major real estate developers basically rely on bank loans to run their businesses.
At this time, Morgan lent a large amount of bank funds. Once there was any disturbance in the currency market, Morgan took advantage of the chaos to sell, which could easily cause a sharp devaluation of the currency.
After He Zhanbo left, Jiang Hua called Shu Haiwen to the study for a secret chat, and the two chatted until late at night.
At the same time, Guo Yunhui was actively thinking of ways to escape from the clutches of her family.
At two o'clock in the morning, a window of the Guo family villa was opened, and a piece of cloth made of sheets was thrown from the second-floor window.
Guo Yunhui, who was wearing a sportswear, clambered out of the window and slipped out holding the sheets.
"Even if I, Guo Yunhui, starve to death outside, I will not marry an old man."
She glanced back at the Guo family villa, carried her backpack, and fled without looking back.
In the middle of the night, there were neither pedestrians nor vehicles on Victoria Peak.
There are lush trees on both sides of the road. Under the illumination of the street lamps, their shadows are cast on the ground, making them look like they are arrogant.
Guo Yunhui held her shoulders with her hands in fear, lowered her head all the way, and ran down the mountain along the road.
A frightened little animal jumped out of the forest, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.
"Guo Yunhui, don't be afraid. Even if you die outside, don't be a pawn in the marriage."
Guo Yunhui's eyes were filled with tears, she bit her lips and continued to run down.
When she was locked in the room, she called her parents for help, but because of Mrs. Guo's power, her father did not dare to interfere with the matter. When her mother heard that the marriage was between the Nanyang Ma family, she was very happy.
support.
After all, the Ma family is considered the richest man in South Asia. If you can marry into such a family, what does it matter even if your husband is older?
With no way to seek help, she decided to run away from home.
She has been pampered since she was a child. Guo Yunhui has always been picked up and dropped off by cars when traveling. She has never walked such a long distance by herself. While running, she tripped over a branch on the ground and accidentally twisted her foot.
"pain……"
She sat pitifully on the ground, like an injured kitten. Unfortunately, no one could be seen around her, so naturally no one came to pity her.
After wiping her tears for a while, she gritted her teeth and stood up, limping, and continued walking down the mountain.
How much perseverance can a rich girl have? She didn't go very far when she couldn't hold on anymore because of the pain. She sat on the roadside and started to cry.
Jiang Hua had just finished talking to Shu Haiwen. Because there were too many things involved, he forgot the time while talking. If the maid hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have known it was already three in the morning.
"Uncle Shu, please make an appointment with everyone later. Morgan's ambitions are not small this time. We must unite to overcome the difficulties together."
Jiang Hua yawned and said.
"Don't worry, I believe everyone understands the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold."
Shu Haiwen patted Jiang Hua's shoulder gratefully.
He knew in his heart that Jianghua's industries were basically all in the mainland. What happened in Xiangjiang had little to do with him. An outsider could achieve this. Why didn't he, a native of Xiangjiang, do his best to defend his homeland?
?
There was no ventilation in the study just now, so Jiang Hua resisted not smoking. Now that he is addicted to smoking, he plans to go out and smoke a cigarette before going to bed. He will also attend the medal ceremony tomorrow.
Although he himself is not very interested in the title of Justice of the Peace, it is undeniable that with this honor, it will be a lot more convenient to work in Hong Kong in the future.
"Xiaojiang, I'm old, so I'll go to bed first, and you can rest early."
Shu Haiwen said with a yawn.
Jiang Hua shook his hand to show that he knew. He walked outside the villa, lit a cigarette, and looked at the full moon in the sky. He felt a little emotional in his heart.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The woman's intermittent crying interrupted Jiang Hua's emotion.
