Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 523 This is your country and mine!
County Bureau. Telecommunications Room!
With a trace of anxiety, Li Yi dialed his father-in-law's phone number.

After a "beep" sound, the familiar voice of my father-in-law Jiang Shiying came from the microphone: "Who is it?"

"Dad, it's me, Li Yi!"

"I finally got in touch with you, kid. If it were any later, I would have fallen asleep!"

"Dad, what happened? Why did you contact me late at night?" Li Yi asked immediately.

"It's not that I wanted to contact you, it was Boss Huang from Hong Kong who couldn't contact you, so he contacted me!"

"Old Huang?"

"Yes, according to Boss Huang, the international gold price surged this morning, from more than 270 US dollars an ounce the day before to more than 330 US dollars. Now those in your company have slightly different judgments on the subsequent rise and fall of gold prices, because The amount of funds involved is a bit large, so I would like to ask you for advice on what price we should close the network at!"

After hearing what happened, Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought something big had happened. He was so angry and furious, it was scary!"

"Isn't this a big deal?"

Then Jiang Shiying said again: "I heard from Boss Huang that this investment involves billions of Hong Kong dollars!"

Although Li Yi really didn't think this matter was big, he knew that he couldn't say that, otherwise his father-in-law would think that he had raised his tail after making a few money.

At the moment, Li Yi directly changed the topic and said: "Dad, please call Lao Huang for me and tell him that the price of gold will reach its peak in about three months and ask him to tell Lan Xinyi that once the price of gold reaches 590 US dollars, One ounce and it’s over!”

"It's 590 US dollars, right?"

"Correct!"

Although the peak price of gold during the year was US$599 an ounce, one should not be too greedy, and one does not have to wait until the price peaks before selling.

More importantly, Xingchen Company has invested more than 70 billion Hong Kong dollars in gold, which is equivalent to more than 730 tons of gold in their hands based on the previous gold price.

Of course, these 730 tons of gold are not real yellow gold, they are more financial products.

This thing is just like a stock. If you want to sell such a large amount, someone has to take over, so you can only sell it quietly before the peak.

After all, at that price, the vast majority of investors still believed that the price of gold would still rise.

"I remember it and will tell him later!"

Then Jiang Shiying asked again: "Xiao Yi, did you also invest that money in gold?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"So based on the current price, how much money has been earned from that money?"

Li Yi lowered his head and calculated silently in his mind, and then said: "A conservative estimate of 3500 million U.S. dollars, and the fluctuation will not exceed 300 million!"

"That's so much?"

Jiang Shiying on the other end of the phone was really shocked. From the time the country handed over the money to his son-in-law to now, it took less than five days for the money to go from 2 million to more than 2. Thousands of dollars, and it’s a beautiful sword.

Those are all very valuable foreign exchange!

Although the official exchange rate is that one U.S. dollar can be exchanged for 1.8 yuan, in the international market, we may not be able to exchange 3.5 million U.S. dollars for 3500 million yuan.

After a long silence, Jiang Shiying asked again: "Xiao Yi, how much profit will we make after this investment is completed?"

"Dad, are you referring to me or..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Shiying interrupted him directly and said, "It's not you!"

"$2 million to $2.5 million!"

Jiang Shiying was shocked again. This is not like giving you one yuan and I will pay you back two yuan. The unit behind this is hundreds of millions, which is still a US dollar.

Although he already had a considerable understanding of his son-in-law's earning power, he had mostly heard about it from others and had not seen it with his own eyes.

However, this time it was different. As the person who pulled the strings, he had witnessed almost the entire process from the early negotiations to the present, so the shock was even more obvious and intense.

For a moment, he was stunned and didn't know what to say!

On the phone, Li Yi saw that his father-in-law had been silent, so he immediately asked: "Dad?"

"father?"

"Ok!"

"Is there anything else you need?"

"No, you should go back early. I'll call Boss Huang first!"

"Okay!" After saying that, the two ended the call!

On the way back, Zhang Ziqiang was driving, but from time to time he looked at Li Yi behind him through the rearview mirror.

Li Yi is a very keen person and quickly noticed this.

"Why do you always look at me, my face is so ugly?"

"I heard!"

Although Zhang Ziqiang's words were meaningless, Li Yi understood what he meant.

"Just hear it if you hear it, I'm not guarding you!"

In fact, what Li Yi wanted to say in his heart was that it was useless even if he wanted to guard against it, he couldn't guard against it at all.

"Did you really earn 3500 million in foreign exchange for the country in just a few days?"

"Theoretically, that's the case, unless the people over there are joking with me, but that's unlikely!" Li Yi said.

"Thank you!"

"Why are you thanking me?" Li Yi asked in surprise.

"Thank you for earning so much foreign exchange for the country. I will do my best to protect your safety even if I risk my life!" Zhang Ziqiang said seriously.

Hearing Zhang Ziqiang's words, Li Yi felt faintly touched, even a little ashamed.

A short sentence of "Thank you" expresses what is the true spirit of "ownership" and what is the true patriotism.

You helped the country, I thank you, because this is my country, what a pure feeling this is.

In comparison, Li Yi felt that although he helped the country earn a little foreign exchange, it was mixed with too much selfishness, and he was ashamed!

"This is exaggerated. This is your country, and it is also my country!" Li Yi said.

"Well, can I report what you just said to the superiors?" Zhang Ziqiang said again.

"Isn't this your duty? Why do you need to ask me for instructions? Don't you think you will report it if I disagree?" Li Yi said.

"If you don't agree, I won't report it!"

"Really not reporting?" It was Li Yi's turn to be surprised.

"The order I received is to protect your safety with all my strength, and report to the superior department immediately when encountering special circumstances!"

Then Zhang Ziqiang continued: "According to the regulations, there are two so-called special situations, including your life safety being threatened and I am unable to solve the current situation. You can report it and ask for help."

"The second is that you want to commit treason or do something detrimental to the country. Other than that, I can choose whether to report it or not!"

"So this is ah!"

Then Li Yi smiled and said: "Actually, this is not a secret. If you want to report it to the superiors, then report it, but I think Comrade Yang Qian should have reported something like this to the superiors long ago!"

"That's her business. I have no control over it. We belong to different systems!"

"I understand, but I'm a little curious, how did you contact your superior?"

As soon as he said this, Li Yi felt that his question was a bit abrupt. After all, this was someone else's secret.

At that moment, he said again: "If my question involves your discipline or secrets, you don't need to answer it!"

Zhang Ziqiang was silent for a moment, and then said: "We have a radio station!"

"Radio station, then don't you have to go to the post office?"

But after asking this, Li Yi felt that his question was a bit stupid. If he needed to go to the post office to send a telegram, how could he contact his superiors at any time?

"No, the radio is in your car!"

"The suitcase?"

"Ok!"

"I won't stop you from reporting the situation to your superiors in the future, but I hope you can say hello to me without violating discipline!" Li Yi said, carefully considering his words.

"can!"

"Um"

PS: I have a meeting this afternoon, so I have to stay up late to write!
