My house collapsed since I became the top scorer in the college entrance examination

Chapter 149

Before the experimental results come out,

If you want to understand what America does, you have to mention America’s dollar hegemony. America relies on its own influence and national strength to support the U.S. dollar to provide liquidity to the world in the form of trade deficits, allowing the U.S. dollar to Move around the world, thereby harvesting the wealth of the world.

As a vivid metaphor, you can think of this batch of dollars as fry and lambs, and then rely on America's military strength and international influence to artificially create regional conflicts and crises, which can take many forms, including political crises, economic crises, and more. Interest rates and even international conflicts have caused the asset prices of specific countries to fluctuate significantly relative to the US dollar, and the local currency has depreciated sharply.

Then harvest the high-quality assets and foreign exchange reserves of other countries at ultra-low prices. On the one hand, America can have a full meal with this batch of increased wealth income, and on the other hand, the liquidity of the US dollar is recovered for the next round of harvesting. prepare for.

The specific operations to release and recover US dollar liquidity are to raise and lower interest rates.

The whole process has formed a systematic combination, just like raising sheep, letting them out to graze and then harvesting them after they are fattened.

This method is often effective. For this reason, America has established its global system and promoted globalization, establishing guarantees for the free circulation of U.S. dollars.

But since 98, this method has been greatly challenged, and the fundamental reason lies in rabbits.

The rise of Rabbit is not just a powerful country that has replaced Big Brother. Its existence and methods have posed a huge challenge to the international order led by America.

The rise of Rabbit is America's biggest challenge and hidden danger since the 21st century. The government has strong control and has many control measures on capital in the financial field, making it difficult for America to harvest Rabbit's wealth through capital operations alone.

But if that's all, the rabbit can't be said to be America's biggest worry, or in other words, it's certainly not a more serious threat than Big Brother.

The reason why Rabbit is more dangerous to America than Big Brother is that it takes a completely different approach from Big Brother, eroding and corrupting America's foundation.

The fundamental reason is that the rise of Rabbit not only makes Rabbit himself an object that America cannot harvest, but also greatly reduces the effectiveness of America's previous harvesting combos against other countries.

Rabbit first ensured that he would not be harvested by America, and then held a large amount of U.S. dollar foreign exchange reserves to "collect a tax" from America when America harvested other countries. Specifically, he used his huge foreign exchange reserves. After America created a "crisis".

Work with the Americans to acquire assets at low prices, including but not limited to oil field development rights, bid for infrastructure construction, or just acquire some resources, or participate in reconstruction or investment.

This means that for America, only dollars instead of wealth will be returned to her hands, and only inflation will be returned instead of actual benefits.

America is stupid, I will pay for it, I will do the bad things, and you will pick the peaches!

The rabbit is so deceptive!

Of course, this situation did not alarm America before 08. It was not until 2008 that the economic crisis damaged America's power. According to the past, America needed to find a partner to export the crisis and harvest wealth.

There is no doubt that the rabbit is impossible, but America finds that not only is the rabbit impossible, but it will also not benefit other countries.

The reason is that in the past, after artificially creating asset price fluctuations, high-quality assets could be purchased at low prices in US dollars and liquidity recovered. Although part of it was intercepted by Rabbit, most of the income still belonged to America. But after 08, most of The proceeds were actually collected by Rabbit.

Just because of the large number of currency swap agreements and the Belt and Road Initiative after 08, as well as the many international financing channels opened by Rabbit, taking Africa as an example, Rabbit changed the previous method of directly using US dollars to acquire resources or assets, and proposed to some third world countries. , converting industrial products and infrastructure into U.S. dollars, and the other country converting options on its own high-quality assets into U.S. dollars to conclude a deal.

Both parties only claimed to use US dollars. In fact, not a single cent moved.

As a result, after America created various regional conflicts and crises, the rabbit intervened in this way. Not only did it have a problem with the profits being withheld, it may even have no profits.

For example, in Iraq, Rabbit offered infrastructure and products, and Iraq used options on infrastructure income or options on other assets as collateral to complete the deal.

This is just a flow of materials, in which America cannot reap any benefits in US dollars, and Rabbit also has its own funding channels.

The Americans finally discovered that in the past, the rabbit people just took a sip from the straw. In the past, it might be ninety-one points, four or six points, but now it may be thirty-seven points, rabbit seven points, America three points, and sometimes the Americans even... To lose money is a challenge to America's current foundation.

This is equivalent to America paying costs and consuming influence, but not receiving corresponding benefits.

After entering the hotel, Xiao Ran informed the front desk about the seat reserved by Mary Gilman. Under the guidance of the waiter, Xiao Ran met Mary Gilman in a quiet corner.

As soon as Mary Gilman saw him, she immediately raised her hand with a smile, and joked with a coquettish smile: "Is it really difficult to treat Mr. Xiao to a meal?"

Mary Gilman seemed to be dressed up carefully when she went out. Her mature and elegant face was covered with beautiful heavy makeup.

She had replaced her royal blue professional suit from the afternoon and replaced it with a black suspender skirt, paired with flesh-colored shiny stockings and black high-heeled shoes, exuding a charming and coquettish aura.

Xiao Ran smiled and said: "How could it be possible? It's too late for me to be happy that a beautiful woman like Mary Gilman invited me to dinner. But I'm really busy today. Don't be surprised if I'm late."

As he said that, he sat down opposite Mary Gilman and said, "Speaking of which, I'm really hungry. Mary Gilman, you don't mind if I order first."

Mary Gilman's beautiful eyes were stunned, as if she didn't expect that the first thing Xiao Ran did when he saw her was to order food.

She had dressed up well before coming here and was extremely confident in her appearance. Even if she couldn't make Xiao Ran fall head over heels, she could at least make him look at her a few more times.

But Xiao Ran's reaction was far beyond her expectation.

Could it be that in his eyes, his appearance is not as important as a meal?

Mary Gilman was a little depressed, but she couldn't show it. She could only show a decent smile, "I was negligent."

Then he called the waiter, ordered a staple food and a side dish, and handed the menu to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran took the menu and glanced at it casually, "Let's order the Marseille fish soup, orange foie gras, spinach and cheese baked oysters, French baked snails, and sirloin steak with cognac."

Xiao Ran ordered more than a dozen dishes in one breath, which made Mary Gilman feel a little pained. Although she was the manager of Hongye Massage Center, her monthly salary was only about 25,000.

The consumption here is still a bit high for her.

Although occasionally she would come here to spend money and taste the delicious food, but most of them came here to gain more knowledge. She couldn't even think of having Xiao Ran's mentality of rushing to eat.

In fact, what Xiao Ran ordered was really not enough for him. It was just to fill his stomach. He was already very restrained.

Mary Gilman couldn't invite him to a meal and end up even hungrier after finishing the meal. Wouldn't that be a complete fool?

"Okay, please wait a minute!" The waiter quickly wrote down the name of the dish, then bowed and left.

"Mr. Xiao seems to be very familiar with this place and seems to be a frequent visitor here." Mary Gilman held her chin and smiled and took the initiative to open the topic.

"I've been here a few times before."

Xiao Ran said it in an understatement, and Mary Gilman could only smile and say nothing.

Judging from his casual and calm movements just now and his familiarity with the menu, it doesn't look like he has only been here a few times. But when she thought of Xiao Ran's magical ability, Mary Gilman suddenly felt relieved.

How could someone with such ability be short of money?

To her, this was a high-end place, but to him, it was probably no different from eating at a roadside stall.

The food had not yet been served. While waiting for the meal, Xiao Ran and Mary Gilman started chatting in a nonchalant manner.

"By the way, I wonder where Master Xiao is currently employed?" Mary Gilman looked at Xiao Ran with gleaming eyes, the corners of her eyes slightly raised, with a seductive smile.

Xiao Ran shrugged, "Squatting at home."

"What?" Mary Gilman didn't hear clearly for a moment, "Can you please say it again?"

"It's just lying at home eating and waiting to die, which is called squatting at home." Xiao Ran suddenly laughed, "I'm just an unemployed vagrant, what a high-level job, haha."

"With Mr. Xiao's ability, it's not easy to find a job. I think he just doesn't want to find it." Mary Gilman covered her mouth and complimented him with a sweet smile.

Seeing Xiao Ran smiling and not answering, Mary Gilman smiled sweetly and asked, "Does Mr. Xiao have any plans to develop into beauty?"

Xiao Ran nodded, "There is a plan in this regard."

"Really!" Mary Gilman's eyes suddenly lit up, "Then I wonder if our Red Leaf Massage Center can catch your eye?"

After saying that, she added: "Don't worry, with your ability, our Hongye Massage Center will never treat you badly with an annual salary starting at one million. What do you think?"

"Not interested." Xiao Ran shook his head and flatly refused without any hesitation.

He is ready to open a company and become the boss, and he will only work for others if he is crazy.

Besides, the annual salary is one million

Mary Gilman obviously didn't expect Xiao Ran to refuse so simply. When she first heard that Xiao Ran didn't have a job, she thought she could get rid of him easily.

But he didn't expect that the truth was completely opposite. Xiao Ran didn't even think about it!

So Mary Gilman was stunned, and then quickly said, "Sorry, Mr. Xiao, this salary is indeed not worthy of your ability, so how about doubling it?"

"An annual salary of two million is considered a high salary even in Shanghai."

Xiao Ran asked with interest: "Did Sister Lan ask you to recruit me?"

Sister Lan? Mary Gilman was stunned for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "Are you talking about Mr. Xu?"

Xiao Ran nodded.

A trace of embarrassment suddenly flashed across Mary Gilman's face, and she explained: "This is not Mr. Xu's idea, it's just my wishful thinking."

"You rashly offered me a salary of two million per year without your boss's consent. You, the manager, have enough power!" Xiao Ran looked at her with a half-smile.

Mary Gilman said bravely: "Although it has not been approved by Mr. Xu, you can rest assured that as long as you agree to come to our company, there will definitely be no problem with Mr. Xu."

Xiao Ran still shook his head and refused.

"Are you dissatisfied with the salary?" Mary Gilman asked tentatively.

Xiao Ran suddenly glanced at her helplessly, "Aren't you talking nonsense!"

But he couldn't say that, so he had to say perfunctorily: "It has nothing to do with the amount of money. I am still a student at the moment and have no idea of ​​​​working."

"Student!" Mary Gilman was suddenly stunned.

"Yes, I'm still in my sophomore year, so I'm sorry."

"No! I was presumptuous, please forgive me." Mary Gilman smiled bitterly. She originally thought Xiao Ran just looked younger.

After all, judging from the way he talks and treats others, Xiao Ran doesn't look like the inexperienced boy who is still in the ivory tower.

Unexpectedly, the other party was still a sophomore.

But forget it, recruiting him was an impromptu idea she came up with when she heard that he had no job. Since the other party didn't want to come, she couldn't force him.

Next, Mary Gilman no longer mentioned recruiting Xiao Ran, but just chatted with him about his hobbies and interesting local news.

It has to be said that Mary Gilman can become a manager in the service industry, and her emotional intelligence is indeed very high. She is not the kind of woman with big breasts and no brains.

The content of the conversation was always what Xiao Ran was interested in, and from time to time, he would be praised from various angles, which made him feel like a spring breeze.

Xiao Ran also had to admit that it was indeed a pleasure to chat with Mary Gilman. No matter what topic you brought up, she could always follow the topic without letting the topic end.

What's more, Mary Gilman is a very beautiful woman. It's a pleasure to be with such a beautiful woman just to look at her.

The two of them had been talking for who knows how long. At this time, the waiter came to the two of them with a dining cart, and the dishes had obviously been prepared.

French meals are particularly famous for their exquisite dishes. On a white porcelain plate with a silver rim, the steak brushed with crimson liquid exudes a buttery fragrance, is gorgeous in color, and looks great.

The two drank and had fun, chatting happily. Gradually, the bottle of brandy, which was worth a lot of money, was almost exhausted by the two of them.

Mary Gilman drank a lot, and her charming face was stained with an intoxicating blush.

"Mary Gilman, you suddenly invited me to dinner this time. It's not just to find me a job, right?" Seeing that he was almost done drinking, Xiao Ran asked with a smile that Mary Gilman invited him to dinner. s reason.

Mary Gilman looked at Xiao Ran with charming eyes, and her voice seemed to have a hint of teasing: "Young master Xiao, just call me Yunru from now on."

"Xue Yunru, what a name!" Xiao Ran sighed in admiration and then said nothing.

Xue Yunru waited for a long time and didn't wait for him to say what was so good about this name. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at him with a hint of anger and a smile, "Speaking of which, I do have something to ask Mr. Xiao."
