Chapter 31: You can talk about everything if you have money

   At 4:30 in the afternoon, Li Changheng and Annie got off at a large market that basically only serves tourists, put on baseball caps, and mixed with the busy tourists holding hands.

   When Annie was attracted by all kinds of small commodities, she took a few turns without knowing it, and easily dumped Bradley and Owen.

   Then, I took Annie into a small women's shoe shop where I could see the entrance of the market.

   As soon as he entered the store, Li Changheng was shocked by the women's shoes at this time. Many styles were indistinguishable from later generations.

   It took a while before he realized that, in addition to really introducing new fashion clothes, the fashion industry seems to like retro.

   Every few years, someone will take out things that are more than ten years old and make a little innovation, and take the opportunity to harvest a wave of women's money.

  According to the vision of his later generations, he picked several pairs of sandals with low heels, and asked Annie to try them. Unexpectedly, this little girl was very satisfied with his vision.

   picked a pair of sandals and put them directly on her feet, and threw the old shoes away, even without paying the money, she wanted to leave.

  'S Li Changheng felt that if he had a princess girlfriend, the wallet was not thick and he really couldn't support him, and then he hurriedly took Annie's hand and said, "Wait, Anya, I haven't paid yet."

   "Pay?" Annie was taken aback, and then her face turned red. She always buys things from luxury stores. She has to pick one car or car for delivery, without having to worry about paying.

   But as soon as I heard the payment, Annie immediately came over with interest, "Henry, I, can I lend you some money? I want to pay by myself".

   took out ten five thousand lire banknotes, Anne happily took it, but hesitantly asked, "Five thousand? Is it too much? I'm worried that I won't be able to pay."

   "What?" A big question mark floated in Li Changheng's heart, and then he understood with a smile, "Well, you don't need to pay it back, and fifty thousand lire is about 75 US dollars, divided by 4 equals 18.75 pounds."

   "It’s less than 19 pounds?"

   Annie looked at the lira banknotes in her hand with a little surprise, and then she became casual, and handed a five thousand lira banknotes to the store owner, holding Li Changheng's hand with a smile, and wanted to leave.

  "Change", gave Annie a white look, and recovered 4,300 lire, before Li Changheng walked out of the shoe store with Annie, who looked so cheap.

   The U.S. dollars and British pound sterling are really worth this year. When I was in Brazil, I heard people say that an ounce of gold is only 35 U.S. dollars, and as long as you have U.S. dollars, you can exchange as much gold as you want.

   However, as the Vietnam War plunged the American people into a quagmire, many countries and investors began to distrust the U.S. dollar and began to exchange large amounts of gold. The U.S. people themselves did not dare to link U.S. dollars to gold.

After    ushered in a sharp rise in gold, which increased by 23 times in 1980.

   Li Changheng felt shocked when he thought of this, but he quickly realized that he bought gold futures for a three-year period, and a five-year period could indeed make money.

   But if you buy a three-month, six-month period, and you drop it once in the middle, you can eat up all the money you enter.

   shook his head, I have the money to buy a long-term line, it is better to make a typewriter, or even airport security equipment, in a few years, I will make more money than gold.

   pulled Annie out of the shoe store and saw Bradley, who was outstandingly tall, from a distance. Then he found Owen and the three Italians behind them.

   "Anya, let's go for a cup of coffee, I'm a little thirsty".

   With that mentioned, Annie felt a little thirsty herself, nodded, and followed Li Changheng into a cafe.

   After ordering a drink, I wanted to urinate, but before I spoke, I heard the radio in the cafe broadcasting,

   "Because Princess Anne, who came to Rome to visit, suddenly fell ill, the business people originally scheduled to hold the dance party tonight had to be postponed, concretely...".

   Annie's face changed slightly when she heard this, she peeped at Li Changheng with a guilty conscience, but she suddenly panicked when she saw her sweetheart's serious expression.

   grabbed Li Changheng's hand and said in a somewhat eager tone, "My dear, I'm a little hungry, can you buy me some almond cookies that I ate at noon?"

   Li Changheng, who was looking for a chance to leave for a while, nodded with a smile, then looked at Annie with a teasing look, "Honey?"

   Annie's face turned red in a few seconds, and she shook Li Changheng's hand a few times, and said in her voice with a spoiled taste, "I want to eat almond cookies."

   "OK, OK", Li Changheng nodded, "Then you are waiting for me here, don't walk around, do you understand?"

   "Yeah", Annie nodded and watched Li Changheng walk out of the cafe, and then she was relieved to continue listening to the news on the radio.

   After discovering that there was nothing unexpected besides being ‘being’ sick, I couldn’t help but feel happy, at least I don’t have to rush back to the embassy castle today.

   But at the thought of this trip to Rome, I was secretly annoyed.

   The purpose of this trip is that she, the princess, is in charge of drawing closer relations between countries, but in private, there will be dedicated personnel to talk about investment with companies and businessmen from all over the world.

   When she thinks that there are millions of people below the poverty line in England, Annie feels a little bit blocked, but she doesn't know that this number will soar to one-third of the population in the future.

  Since it came with a purpose, if the effect is not good, Annie can only go back to the closed girls' school for the next two years until she goes to university.

   Maybe, have to find a chance to let Henry know his identity and let him go to London to find himself?

   Can be frank about his identity, and worry that Henry is angry~www.readwn.com~ When he was at a loss, I suddenly saw a customer's newspaper in the cafe with a half-length photo of himself wearing a crown.

   ‘God’, Annie was so frightened that her heart accelerated violently. Fortunately, Henry had been pushed out just now, or she would have been dressed now.

   Lowered the baseball cap on his head, lowered his head, holding the coffee cup, I don't know whether to leave the cafe now or take the risk and wait, maybe the customer will leave in a while.

   After thinking about it, Annie changed her seat, hiding behind the wooden partition of the coffee seat, and through the carved gap on the wooden partition, always paying attention to the entrance of the cafe.

   In case Henry comes back early, stand up and pull him away.

   After waiting for ten minutes, the customer on the side seat finally left, but Annie is now thinking about why Li Changheng hasn't come back for so long.

   But I didn’t know that at this time, Li Changheng had been standing outside the cafe, behind a pillar.

   Before coming out of the cafe, he borrowed a pen from the counter and wrote on the envelope in his pocket, ‘getting the miniature camera in the shape of a lighter and the film in the target car,

   was packed in a paper bag and delivered to the front desk of the Padilla Café with the words Joe Bradley’.

   Then he took out a 5,000 lire banknote and handed it to the cashier of the cafe and the middle-aged man who is also the owner.

   "Can you buy me ten Italian almond biscuits?"

  5000 lire, let alone ten yuan, you can buy one hundred yuan, the cafe owner took the money, and promised, "Of course, of course, sir, I will be happy to help you."

   After finishing talking, he hired a waiter, gave the money to the other party, and asked him to go to the best pastry shop in the market and buy a macaroon.

   Then Li Changheng took out another banknote in the surprise gaze of the boss.
