America’s Road To Wealth

  Chapter 216 Sacrificial and Showdown

  New York University was founded in 1831 by Albert Gallatin, then Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, as a private university.

  It has about 45,000 students and mainly has two campuses.

   are Manhattan campus and Brooklyn campus respectively.

  It can be ranked in the top 30 in the ranking of universities in the United States.

  New York University School of Law's tax law and international law are the first in the United States.

  In addition, New York University School of Law is also very strong in disciplines involving financial law and commercial law.

   This is the university that Anne Hathaway was admitted to, but she studied in the Department of Humanities and Philosophy.

  This part of the college was assigned to the Brooklyn campus.

  The Manhattan campus here is the school's most important law school and economics school..

  The Manhattan campus basically takes Washington Square as the heart of the school and radiates outward.

  Because it is located in Manhattan, the core of New York, New York University students who study on the Manhattan campus.

   There is no doubt that living expenses and food expenses will be more expensive than any university.

  Laura Shrub Lauren, in early March of this year.

  With the recommendation letter from the White House, he was successfully admitted to the Department of Economics of New York University.

  On this day, Abel was wearing a coat, a scarf, sunglasses and a hat.

   In mid-March, in the cool breeze of New York.

   Accompanying little Laura, walking in Washington Pier Square of New York University.

  Because it is located in Lower Manhattan, you can see the Manhattan landmark of the Empire State Building when you look up.

  Location is very good.

  The Manhattan campus of New York University is estimated to be the smallest campus area among well-known universities in the United States.

  The entire Washington Pier Square may not be as big as many university stadiums.

   It is a circle with a small lawn in the middle and a small square surrounded by trees.

  Out of the door is Houston Avenue in Manhattan, and a few steps away is Broadway

  Only in terms of its size, it is said to be a university, but in fact it is not even comparable to the size of many American high schools.

   This is also impossible.

   Who told it to be in a place like Manhattan?

   "Do you feel small?"

  Little Laura walked closely beside Abel, she smiled and said:

  “I felt very small when I first came here! I wanted to go to Rice University at first. Our Rice University is much more beautiful and much bigger than here!”

   "It's really small." Abel responded with a smile:

   "But its ranking is much better than Rice University. It is a good choice for you to enroll here."

   "The school of law and economics in this school is very strong. In my company, many people graduated here."

  Little Laura thought that what I want to discuss with you is not about whether the school is good or not!

  Little Laura has her own worries about her relationship with Abel.

  She felt that Abel was too inactive.

  Obviously the parents of both parties, it’s short of telling them directly.

  The combination of the two families is also very beneficial to each other.

  I am not bad looking, at most, I am still a little younger.

  But I will always grow up.

  But this guy, why isn't he taking the initiative at all?

  Obviously he is in the newspaper, he is such a playboy!

  Thinking of this, little Laura was a little angry, and she pushed Abel slightly.

   "Well, what's the matter?" Abel looked down at her.

  Sixteen-year-old little Laura is at most about 1.6 meters tall.

   Standing beside him who is 1.92 meters tall, she looks like a little girl.

   "I feel that you don't value me at all. I feel that you have been perfunctory me."

  Little Laura stared at him, she said seriously.

  I'm really just perfunctory you

   Of course Abel would not say such words.

  He smiled and said: "How is it possible, you are so beautiful and cute. No one will perfuse you, no one will ignore you."

   "Really?" Little Laura looked up at him.

"real."

   "Then why do I send you messages, I send three or four, and you only reply one or two?"

   "Well you know. I'm busy and I have too much company to take care of."

   "No, you don't just have so many companies to take care of. You also have so many girlfriends to take care of, am I right?"

  Abel was silent.

  He looked at little Laura, and saw a pair of bright eyes on the face of the most beautiful girl in the younger generation of the bush family.

"actually."

  Little Laura said: "I know our acquaintance is actually more about the cooperation of interests."

  “The bush family needs the help of a young, positive and rising local family in their base camp.”

   "The Smith family also needs the help of a prestigious family that has already climbed up."

   "Smith's cooperation with the Bush family will give both parties a good helper in Texas."

  She looked at Abel seriously, "Am I right?"

"Forehead"

  Abel really didn't want to face these real wealthy daughters.

   Except for a few of them, most of them have received very good elite education since childhood.

   May be poor at common sense and empathy, but not when it comes to their own interests.

  One or two, all of them have good vision.

  A girl about sixteen years old from an ordinary family.

   Most of them are still immersed in the pursuit of idols, happiness, stimulation, or learning and so on.

  These guys in the rich family, as long as they are not abandoned dudes.

   In fact, they are very smart.

   Just like Ah Xi.

  He has two sons.

  His eldest son is very smart and capable. If he can survive, he will be a top American elite.

  His youngest son. To speak of a dude is to praise his youngest son.

   The tragedy is that his eldest son died young, leaving only a super cheating young son.

  From his two sons, we can see the point of view of American elite family education.

   Those who can inherit the family and are very motivated, then work hard to cultivate education.

   If you are just dawdling in your life, then do whatever you want.

  Little Laura is the eldest daughter of George's third brother.

   as first child.

   Still a girl.

  This kind of child is destined to be used as a marriage tool after birth.

   In this way, her education is of course related to this aspect.

   And it can't be bad.

   This makes her seem very precocious and realistic in this regard.

   "Did you know this at such a young age?" Abel had no choice but to answer.

  Little Laura laughed and said:

   "My uncle actually told me these things. He told me that you are a good potential stock. As long as you are caught, it will benefit me and the bush family a lot."

"Ok."

  Abel spoke softly, and at this time the two had already walked to the edge of Washington Pier Square, beside a stone bench.

  He proposes to sit down, just as no one is around.

  You can talk to her.

   After the two sat down, Abel looked at her seriously and said:

   "I'm a playboy. Those papers aren't wrong, they're telling the truth."

   "I have a lot of girlfriends. I don't want to get married that early."

  Abel decided to confess, because this was one of the reasons he came here today to find little Laura.

  Charlize thing.

   It made him want to take a risk, and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of the marriage tool that troubled him.

   "But it's true that you are capable." Little Laura spread her hands cutely.

   "As long as you don't change that. Even if you're a playboy, my uncle and grandfather, even my father."

   "They'll still want you to be part of the bush family."

  “They will tell me: My dear little Lauren, men are like this, you have to learn to bear it!”

  She spoke so bluntly that even Abel felt that she seemed very generous.

   After thinking about it, Abel felt that this was a good time to insert.

  Abel broke the news.

   "I have an illegitimate child. One of my girlfriends, she's pregnant."

  The reason why fierce material is fierce material is that it is very fierce.

  The little Laura who just said very generously was discovered by Abel after hearing his words.

  Her beautiful eyes were rounded, and for the first time, anger appeared on her pretty face.

   "Are you trying to provoke me, Mr. Smith?"

  She was expressionless in front of Abel for the first time.

   "If yes, you have succeeded."

   "Ah" Abel smiled: "No, I'm just telling the truth."

   "call"

  Little Laura took a deep breath and let it out again.

  She still had some immature pretty face, which became a little cold.

   "You don't look like a Mayflower at all, and you don't look like a Smith at all."

  Little Laura says:

   “All of the Mayflowers are very traditional.”

   "Your grandfather was also very decent. Why is it so outrageous when it comes to you, Mr. Smith?"

  At this time, little Laura looked extremely serious.

  It doesn't look like sixteen at all, but thirty-six, or even forty-six.

  The daughter of a blue-blood family, once she is the one with the task of marrying.

  Elite education received since childhood, coupled with a powerful environment.

  It will make them more mature and realistic than the children of ordinary wealthy families.

"genetic mutation?"

  Abel said softly:

   "Just like the Mayflowers, none of them can get along on Wall Street."

   "And I can, and that proves I'm not a traditional Mayflower."

   “As for my father and grandfather, they were really traditional and decent.”

   "But if I were like them, do you think George and Herbert would choose to marry Smith?"

   "Before us. George and my grandfather are colleagues, and I haven't seen how good the relationship between the two families is."

   "Not because of me. Because of my unconventional Smith, because of my outrageous Mayflower appearance."

   "It's what made us get along now."

   "Little Laura. The genetic mutation is a double-edged sword. It makes me less of a Smith and allows me to do well on Wall Street."

   "But the other side of it also made me like this."

  Abel's rhetoric was one set, leaving little Laura in a daze.

   It sounds like that is the case, but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't hold water at all.

   It's just that although little Laura is precocious and realistic, it is false to say how smart she is.

   Even the interests of the two families combine the pros and cons.

   It was all her parents who analyzed it for her.

   This made Abel's strong words unreasonable, and she also had a little persuasiveness in her heart.

   "So be it," said little Laura:

   "I will think about it carefully, we will have a relationship next time."

  Abel nodded:

   "You should think about it. But I don't want other people to know about it. I just want only the two of us to know. You know what I mean about the illegitimate child."

  Little Laura, who stood up and wanted to leave, paused after hearing what he said.

  Finally she nodded: "I see."

  Looking at the departing Laura Bush Lauren.

  Abel didn't know whether what he just did was right or wrong.

  He was just annoyed, so he brought it up.

   If she doesn't accept it, then go talk to Little Bush and the others.

  Abel felt that he might have to bear the anger from there.

   But he was already mentally prepared, even prepared to bear all this.

  He also mainly considered that this kind of thing is not to let the shrub be held accountable afterwards.

   It's better to expose it directly before you really establish a relationship with them.

  Let the shrub choose.

  Let the shrubs think for themselves, whether to continue to choose themselves, or choose to separate.

   Even let Charlize be born instead of killing it directly.

  He also has considerations about this matter.

   That would be unfair to Charlize.

   will make her a certain possibility to become a victim.

  But Abel felt that this was the result of her self-assertion and cleverness.

   is the possible punishment from him.

  Although he accepted her matter, he was still upset.

   Then just take this opportunity to have a showdown with the shrub family.

  After the showdown, no matter what the result is. Only then can I continue to live the original life.

   How good is this?

  After thinking about these things clearly, there are also preparations and plans for the future.

  Abel was sure that he took the initiative to find little Laura this time, and what he wanted to do was accomplished.

  He is not interested in staying here anymore.

  He stood up from the stone bench, just about to leave.

   But in the distance, little Laura walked towards her quickly, holding a paper bag in her hand.

  Abel stood still, waiting for her to come.

"this is for you."

  After walking in front of Abel, little Laura handed him the paper bag.

   "What is it?" Abel took it.

   "A scarf, I made it myself." Little Laura was expressionless.

   "For me?"

"Ok."

   "Thank you then."

   "You're welcome." Little Laura finished speaking, turned around and left.

  Abel was carrying a paper bag and took out a white scarf from it. It could be seen that the workmanship was rough.

  He didn't know how to evaluate it.

  In the end, he didn't want to think about it at all, anyway, he just had to be prepared to deal with the anger from his family or the bush family.

  Thinking like this, he left NYU with a paper bag.

   For the next few days, Abel waited for a call.

   etc. from Texas, or a call from DC.

   But on March 20th.

  The call he wanted to wait for did not arrive.

  It's quiet in Texas, and it's quiet in DC.

  He was so quiet that he wanted to call back.

  This made some of his preparations basically worthless.

  After 20 days, he didn't bother to wait any longer.

  Anyway, the soldiers came to cover up the water, and Abel decided to live his own life well.

  He came to the Smith Building again that day.

  In the office on the fourth floor.

  Abel sat on a special office chair, quietly watching the trend chart of spot gold.

  Smith Capital has been building positions for many days.

  The average opening line is around 238.00.

   Now, the price of London gold is around 229.00.

   That's right, London Gold fell.

  The reason for the decline is that there are some problems in Asia.

  In the past few days.

  In Asia, the Hang Seng Index and the Nikkei 225 Index plummeted for three days.

  As we all know, Asia is the place where gold is most valued in the world.

  The financial situation is sluggish, and even spot gold has plummeted, and it is still falling.

  The reason for this is that Abel also knows the reason.

  Because Wall Street has launched another wave of small dollar tides under the leadership of Soros during this period.

  The so-called dollar tide refers to the United States and Wall Street.

  Using the interest rate cuts and increases of the US dollar, through financial means, it is a means of harvesting high-quality assets in the global high-quality market.

   If there is an explanation here, it is estimated that you can write an international economics paper with tens of thousands of words.

   To put it simply, the Wall Street hot money headed by Soros has started to make trouble again.

  The target is Asia, mainly Southeast Asia, Hong Kong Island, Neon and Bangzi.

   This kind of thing happens every few years.

  The scale varies from large to small, and the large one is the Southeast Asian economic crisis in 1997.

   It is precisely because of this routine harvest that led to the abnormal decline of spot gold.

   But this has long been expected by Abel's talent.

  Even Abel knew that this small bull market in spot gold was caused by this.

  After the sharp drop, the market's risk aversion and revenge sentiment rose.

  This can support the emergence of a small bull market.

  Abel looked at the trend chart of spot gold, and he tapped on the table lightly.

  Because of this small dollar tide, spot gold, spot silver and other precious metal futures today.

  Asian trading and European trading are all falling sharply, and the K line on the daily chart is currently a big Yin line.

   Spot silver opened at 15.70 in the Asian market, but now it has fallen to 15.00, a full 70 points!

  However, Smith Capital does not do spot silver.

   Spot gold opened at 236.0 in the Asian session, but now it has fallen to 228.0, a sharp drop of $8, or 80 points.

   This caused Smith Capital to lose a lot.

   At least a floating loss of more than 500 million US dollars.

  Abel gave them trading funds of only 10 billion U.S. dollars, and the loss was as high as 5%.

  But these are all within his expectations.

  The time has come.

  He issues new orders.

  Continue to build positions, build as many positions as possible.

   This book is a cool text, and the important things are said three times!

   So there will be no depressing episodes, please rest assured to subscribe and watch!
