Chapter 269 The Exchange
"Go to Manhattan," Miranda said.

When it comes to Manhattan, everyone must have the impression that the middle section from 23rd Street to 59th Street is the midtown in people's conception.

As long as you come to this place, you will have a feeling of deja vu, because this area includes the elite section of Fifth Avenue, the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, Central Station and the United Nations Headquarters, as well as the famous Times Square, Broadway, and Rockefeller Center.

That's because many movie scenes are shot in Midtown Manhattan. These representative sights, landmark buildings and pedestrians in a hurry on the street are all classics of New York.

The elites of the world's financial, securities, futures and insurance industries are also concentrated here. Wall Street, located in the south of Manhattan Island, is a symbol of American wealth and economic strength, and is also the headquarters of American monopoly capital and synonymous with financial oligarchy.

There are more than 540 financial and foreign trade institutions on both sides of the narrow street with a length of only 2900 meters. The famous New York Stock Exchange and the American Stock Exchange are located here.

After Black Monday, many people will jump off the tall buildings in front of them.

But as long as you work hard, maybe you can really buy a building in this place.

Su Chen is convinced of this, he can't have decades of experience in advance, and still live so uselessly.

When the car drove to Manhattan, Miranda said to Su Chen: "Su, I'll take you to the hotel to open a room first. You can stay here and wait for me. I'll go and see my parents, and then I'll come back to you, okay?"

"Honey, of course it's fine. You should go see your parents first." While waiting in line for the traffic lights, Su Chen poked his head and prepared to kiss Miranda on the face.

Miranda turned her head and met Su Chen's mouth just in time, and pouted for a while.

The people in the car next to them couldn't help whistling when they saw it, but Su Chen ignored it.

Don't talk about kissing, it's probably normal if they communicate in the car right now.

If you walk on the streets of the United States at night, whether in the car, outside the car, or in the streets, you can see scenes of struggles between you and me.

If I had to sum it up in two words, it would be exciting.

The car stopped at the entrance of a hotel, the two got out of the car, went up to register their information, and a waiter took them upstairs.

There is actually no difference between hotels in the United States and Hong Kong, that is, big rooms, big balconies, big bathrooms, big bathtubs, big mirrors and the like.

After going up, Miranda put her arms around Su Chen, "Haney, I'll go see my parents first, and I'll come to you in the afternoon, and then we can take a night tour of Manhattan at night?"

"Of course it's fine. It's okay. I won't be so stingy and won't let you see your parents." Su Chen stroked her blond hair and kissed her face: "I will miss you."

"You Chinese are so nice, dear, you don't even know how stingy American men are. If your girlfriend goes out, you have to go with her."

Miranda also kissed him on the cheek: "Then I'll go see my parents first, and if nothing happens, I'll be back soon."

"Then I'll go to Manhattan first. I've only heard about it before, but I've never seen it before." Su Chen said, "I'll be back at the hotel at five o'clock."

"Okay." Miranda took out a small lady's purse from her bag, and took out a few dollars from it, "I didn't see you bring a purse when I went out today, so you can use the money first. .”

As he said, he stuffed it into Su Chen's pocket.

Su Chen can afford two houses, so naturally she wouldn't be so stupid as to think that Su Chen has no money to use, and I heard that the two books sold well, so the manuscript fees must be quite a lot.

Many Chinese people think that ghosts fall in love with the AA system, or that couples pay half and half for toothpaste.

In fact, this is not the case. In most ordinary American couples, the woman manages the money, and the man only needs to have money for gasoline and beer in his pocket.

When rich people get married, it is really different. Before they get married, they usually sign a prenuptial agreement, that is, a prenuptial agreement, which includes pre-marital property certificates, and property distribution agreements after divorce.

If these two girls are really willing to go back to China with him, Su Chen naturally doesn't mind. Now that more and more women are marrying ghosts, they have to go back with two foreign girls.

Being able to fall in love with a girl from the Eaton family, and to have a relationship with Professor Ayler, no matter how you look at it, it is not a loss.

Being able to rely on selling one's appearance is also a kind of skill, and many people don't have this kind of skill yet.

But we have to settle Xue Yu's side first.

"Haney, I'll go first then." Miranda said.

Su Chen took her hand: "Let's go downstairs together."

After the two came down from upstairs, Miranda gave him a long French kiss and left.

The people around ignored the behavior of the two of them. Anyway, kisses between couples are normal.

Su Chen also ignored the people around him, stepped out of the hotel, and after identifying the direction, he walked towards Wall Street.

As mentioned before, it is absolutely impossible to short Wall Street.

Even if he doesn't want to short Wall Street now, Su Chen has to read several financial newspapers before deciding what stocks to buy.

Don't make decisions blindly.

Go out for a stroll and feel the Wall Street in the 80s.

Compared with the Wall Street in my impression, the current Wall Street can be regarded as lively, because now, unlike later generations, you can see the stock market on your mobile phone, and you can almost see people in suits and ties on the major exchanges, waiting for transactions at any time.

There are also some homeless people waiting for charity at the gate of the exchange.

As soon as he stepped forward, he heard a white man say to a homeless man with a look of disgust:

"Damn it, you have hands and feet, why are you begging here? Even if you save a hundred dollars, come in and open an account, you will soon become a millionaire."

The homeless man frowned: "Sir, do you know what I used to do?"

"Shet, what did your job have to do with me?" The white man took out a coin from his pocket and threw it into the homeless man's enamel jar.

The tramp said: "Before I was a vagabond, I was just like you, wearing a suit and a tie in the stock exchange."

The white man frowned, turned around and took out the coin from the homeless man's enamel jar: "In this case, you are not worthy of charity, buddy, you have to pay for your wrong decision."

After speaking, he stepped into the exchange.

Su Chen thought this homeless man was quite interesting. It was probably another story of turning from a multi-millionaire to a millionaire, and then from a millionaire to a negative man.

He took out a dollar knife and threw it into the homeless man's enamel jar.

"Sir, thank you for your kindness." The homeless man smiled.

Su Chen shrugged: "Dude, you should raise money to make a fortune in the stock market."

"Sir, I think so too. Now I'm optimistic about a stock and I'm going to raise money to buy it. If you want to know which stock it is, as long as you pay me a consulting fee of five hundred dollars, I promise You make a fortune."

There was a sly look in the homeless man's eyes: "Trust me, buddy, I have been speculating in stocks for 20 years, and I will never be wrong."

Su Chen smiled and said: "Dude, you'd better think about whether you have something to eat tomorrow, bye."

He was not interested in listening to the story of this homeless man, and stepped into the exchange, carefully looking at the trading scene of this era.

After glancing at the big screen, I was suddenly attracted by a piece of information...
