"What if I know for sure that the Hong Kong dollar will appreciate in a few months?" Zhang Junping asked again.
"Then go long on the backhand and buy a lot of Hong Kong dollars."
"Mr. Richard, then I will entrust you with my funds.
I feel that the Hong Kong dollar will continue to fall in the next few months. How to maximize profits is your expertise.
If you do a good job, in addition to the commission, I will also give you big profits."
"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your trust. I promise with my reputation that I will live up to Mr. Zhang's trust." Richard solemnly promised.
The pound sterling in this era was still very valuable. Five million pounds was equivalent to more than 10 million U.S. dollars. In the 1980s, Hong Kong could be called a rich man.
Even a family worth tens of millions of dollars can be called a wealthy family.
What's more, these tens of millions of dollars are in cash, not securities or other fixed assets.
In Richard's eyes, Zhang Junping is an heir who has come to Xiangjiang to inherit billions of wealth.
Therefore, it deserves a certain amount of respect from Richard.
Of course, it was only a certain amount of respect. After all, Zhang Junping gave him five million pounds to operate, which could earn him a generous commission.
For the sake of money, give me a certain amount of respect.
If Zhang Junping had assets of hundreds of millions of dollars, then it would be a different situation.
"By the way, after the identities of the four people are settled, I still need to register a home furnishing company. The name of the company...
Let’s call it Qidian Home Furnishing Co., Ltd.!” At the end, Zhang Junping seemed to have just remembered and said casually.
"No problem, leave this little matter to me." Richard politely said to Zhang Junping, stroking his chest and bowing slightly.
After leaving Standard Chartered Bank, Zhang Junping sat in the car that Standard Chartered Bank took him back to the hotel, rubbed his chin and began to think about his next plan.
The old lady gave him five million pounds, and Zhang Junping had no intention of selling a few more precious stamps.
But now.
He had the urge to sell stamps again.
He is not a stamp collector. If he keeps the stamps, the value will increase at most.
But now there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you can reap huge rewards by taking advantage of it.
It can even help him directly realize his dream of financial freedom.
Not to mention the Penny Black stamp, the world's first postage stamp, the missionary alone can now be sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Penny Black, at its hottest moment now, may not be able to sell for five million dollars in future generations, but it can still be sold for one or two million dollars.
There are also big and small dragon and coiling dragon stamps, which are all rare and precious stamps.
This time when he came to Xiangjiang, Zhang Junping brought Penny Black and the missionaries with him.
Although the current price of future generations is three to four times lower, this cannot be simply calculated.
Money has time value.
There are also price increases, the depreciation of money, etc. All of these things, in real terms, it seems that it is more cost-effective to sell now.
After thinking about this, Zhang Junping decided to sell stamps.
"Mr. Zhang, we've arrived at the hotel, do you still need a car?" The driver sent by Standard Chartered Bank politely reminded Zhang Junping that he had arrived.
"Oh! No need, thank you!" Zhang Junping thanked him and handed the driver a tip of 100 Hong Kong dollars.
Xiangjiang has been colonized by the British for nearly 80 years, and many places, including some customs, bear traces of the British.
Such as the habit of tipping.
Some high-end places or some so-called upper-class people are accustomed to tipping waiters.
Zhang Junping is now playing the role of a billionaire heir, so naturally he cannot show off in this regard.
This billionaire refers to Hong Kong dollars.
Five million pounds is exactly 11 million U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate, which is close to 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang!" The driver happily accepted the tip.
Zhang Junping smiled and handed the driver one hundred Hong Kong dollars and an envelope, "Please, help me send a message to the owner of this address.
He said that the son of an old friend had arrived in Xiangjiang.
Show him this envelope and he will know who I am."
The Hong Kong dollars were exchanged before coming to Hong Kong.
According to relevant national regulations, people going abroad can exchange a certain amount of foreign exchange.
Currently, coming to Hong Kong is considered as going abroad, and Hong Kong dollars are also considered as foreign exchange.
Because the country's foreign exchange reserves are relatively small, everyone can exchange very little foreign exchange.
Despite Zhang Junping's generous tips, in fact, he didn't have many Hong Kong dollars in his hand, only a thousand Hong Kong dollars.
Of course, Zhang Junping also had other channels to exchange more Hong Kong dollars, but considering that he had a certificate of deposit of five million pounds in his hand, Zhang Junping did not go to the black market to buy more Hong Kong dollars.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, I'm very happy to serve you." The driver took the envelope in his hand, glanced at it, and said respectfully.
The envelope Zhang Junping gave to the driver was the same envelope that his Uncle Lin wrote to his father.
When my father sent the household registration information again, he also sent Uncle Lin's letter.
Because it is not possible to make phone calls between Hong Kong and mainland China, I did not leave a phone number in the letter.
Zhang Junping could only hand the envelope to the driver and ask him to deliver the letter and ask Uncle Lin to come see him.
After seeing off the driver, Zhang Junping returned to the hotel and first went to the leaders of the Ministry of Culture and the school to cancel the leave.
I chatted with Huang Xue about my intimacy again.
Unfortunately, the visiting group has a rule that men and women cannot live together unless they are husband and wife and have a certificate.
Therefore, Zhang Junping and Huang Xue could only live separately.
Even if you want to be intimate.
Uncle Lin arrived faster than Zhang Junping expected.
Originally, Zhang Junping thought that Uncle Lin would not be able to come to see him until tomorrow at the earliest.
As a result, Uncle Lin and his cousin arrived before it was time for dinner.
Zhang Junping was lounging in Huang Xue's room, chatting.
I received a notification that someone was looking for me in the lobby downstairs.
Zhang Junping took Huang Xue to the hall downstairs and saw a middle-aged man and woman looking around anxiously.
The man is gentle and has a refined temperament.
The woman looks very dignified. Although she is already in her forties, almost fifty, she is well-maintained and quite beautiful.
Vaguely, Zhang Junping felt familiar, and he guessed that the middle-aged man and woman in front of him were Uncle Lin and his cousin.
"Xiao Pingzi!" Before Zhang Junping could speak, the middle-aged woman shouted excitedly to Zhang Junping.
"Cousin?!" Zhang Junping looked at the other party and shouted tentatively.
"Xiao Pingzi, it's really Xiao Pingzi!
You have grown so big in the blink of an eye!" My cousin grabbed Zhang Junping's hand excitedly, "If you hadn't looked so much like my sister, I wouldn't have dared to recognize you."
"My cousin is still so young and beautiful." Zhang Junping complimented with a smile.
"She's still young and beautiful, but she's old! I'm already a grandma." My cousin wiped her tears and said while crying and laughing.
"Uncle Lin!" Zhang Junping said hello to Uncle Lin again.
"well!
In the blink of an eye, the skinny monkey of yesteryear turned into an adult.
Go home with Uncle Lin." Uncle Lin was also a little excited, and said with complaint: "You kid, when you come to Xiangjiang, you don't go to me directly, but you stay in a hotel."
