Chapter 155: Meeting Sam Again
After chatting for a while, everyone gave each other business cards.
Then Mr. Matsushita took Miko Sakai's hand and said to Gu Wenxuan: "Mr. Wenxuan, you go and do your work. I'm going to go dance with Sakai!"
"Okay, okay, go play, and have fun!"
After Mr. Matsushita left, Gu Wenxuan, the secretary of Kangcheng, said, "Wenxuan, you are so generous. How could you give that person such a nice necklace so quickly? I estimate that it must be worth 10 yuan!"
Ichiro Yamamoto also said: "Secretary Kang Cheng is right, this Wenxuan-kun is too kind to people."
Ikeda already felt that her husband was generous to everyone, which was not good.
But Ikeda was smart. She didn't say anything bad about her husband in front of everyone. She was just a little unhappy in her heart.
Only Gu Wenxuan laughed in his heart: This kind of broken stone is everywhere on my master's planet, it just takes some time to figure it out.
Gu Wenxuan saw that Ikeda looked a little unhappy.
So she smiled and said to Ikeda, "Sachiko, don't be upset. Do you like this kind of necklace? I will give you the biggest one right away!"
After saying that, he took out a moonstone necklace with only eighteen moonstones from his pocket.
Although there are only 18 grains in this string, each one is as big as a thumb, and its purity is better than the previous one.
It sparkles, especially under the light, it is really beautiful.
Gu Wenxuan personally put it on Ikeda Sachiko's neck, and Gu Wenzhan took off the small pearl necklace that was originally on her neck.
When Kang Cheng saw the moonstone necklace, his mouth opened into an O shape in surprise.
"Hey, Xiao Xuanxuan, how many treasures do you have on you? Let me search them, or you can give me a bunch and I will take them back to your sister-in-law!"
At this time, Kenji Oshima appeared from somewhere, saw them laughing and asked hurriedly.
"If you want anything, I want it too!"
Kenji Oshima has now become involved in a fight with a few of them. He wants everything he wants, without knowing it. This guy is really greedy.
Gu Wenxuan had no choice but to take out a few more rings from the space.
The quality of the ring was also very good, and he gave one to each of these people.
Several people put the rings on their thumbs, looked at them left and right under the light, and were very satisfied.
Kang Cheng joked, "Look, now that we're wearing this ring, don't we look like a Qing prince?"
"Don't tell me, they really look alike!"
When they were chatting and laughing here, a foreigner came over and patted Gu Wenxuan on the shoulder:
"Hi, my Chinese friend, what's the good news that makes you laugh so happily?"
Gu Wenxuan turned his head and saw that it was Sam who sold him the car!
"Hello Sammy, how is your foreign business?"
Sam shrugged: "My business is not good. It's war time now, and few people buy cars! Rich people like you are a minority after all!"
Gu Wenxuan asked Sam to sit down on a seat.
"Sam! Didn't you say that it's war time now, and arms should be more popular? Why don't you switch to the arms business?"
Sam shook his head: "It's not easy to do arms business nowadays. Many people buy arms but don't pay for them!
Some arms dealers and arms manufacturers have bankrupted themselves because of these credits!"
Gu Wenxuan was very surprised: "Would you buy arms on credit?"
"Of course, the largest arms are often bought for the state, not sold to individuals. They all use the state's credit to buy on credit!
But sometimes the credibility of a country will fail. If the government collapses, who will you ask to collect the debts it owes? "
Gu Wenxuan also knew from his historical knowledge that the Japanese were about to become enemies with the Americans!
World War II is about to begin, and arms dealers will surely make huge profits.
He wants to persuade Uncle Sam to do arms business or speculate on the stocks of arms companies, and he will definitely make a lot of money after the war.
Gu Wenxuan said to Sam, "Sam, what are the current prices of American military stocks?"
Sam didn’t know what Gu Wenxuan meant by asking this question: “There are many military factories in the United States now. Even though they sell well, many people cannot receive the remaining payment for arms, so they cannot make any money!
Therefore, the stocks of the arms factory are not favored now! "
Gu Wenxuan said to Sam: "Then Sam, do you have a stockbroker? I want to buy some stocks of arms factories in the United States!"
When Sam heard that Gu Wenxuan wanted to buy some stocks for speculation, his eyes immediately lit up. This was a good opportunity for him to make some extra money.
He patted his chest and said, "Mr. Gu, why do you need a broker to trade stocks? There is a broker in front of you who has studied stocks for decades!"
Gu Wenxuan looked at Sam and said, "Sam, aren't you a car salesman? When did you start researching stocks?"
Sam said embarrassedly: "Actually, I used to do stock analysis. I was a stock analyst at the stock exchange. It was just that I made a mistake once and was fired by my boss, so I came to sell cars!"
To Sam:
"Okay then, I'll hire you as my stockbroker. I'll transfer the money to your account, and you can buy the stocks I tell you to buy!
From now on, the commission will be 5/1000, or if I make money, I will give you 20% of the profit, and if I lose money, we won’t discuss the salary. What do you think?"
Sam was overjoyed when he heard that. He didn't want the 20% of the profit. Who knows when the stock will rise or fall? He just wanted 20/5 of the commission!
Sam thought for a moment and said:
"Even if Mr. Gu really wants to speculate in stocks, he should go to Shanghai. The economic environment there is more mature. Beijing is too backward and its thinking cannot keep up!"
Gu Wenxuan spread his hands:
"I can't do anything about this. I wanted to resign as the captain of the detective team, but I didn't get permission. So I can only live in Peking!"
Sam thought for a moment and said:
"Mr. Gu, how about I go to Shanghai and open a brokerage company for you? I'll be in Shanghai and can speculate stocks with you!
I can also buy and sell various international futures with you, and I can even sell some cheaper products from abroad to you in China.
I can also ship more of your Chinese products to sell internationally. As long as you have a lot of capital, it is easy to make money!"
Gu Wenxuan asked curiously, "Aren't you the car dealer for Ford in Beijing?
How can you walk to Shanghai? Are you going to resign?"
Sam smiled bitterly and said:
“In fact, we work as car sales managers in a foreign company, and our salary is not that much, we only make 200 US dollars a month!
Then we would get commission only after selling the car. If we didn’t buy a car, we would only have 200 US dollars for living expenses.
I have to support my family, so I really don't have much spare money. You see, I was brought to your party today by a friend from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!
To be honest, I didn't know you were the owner of this place. I came here just to drink some wine, dance, and have a free dinner!"
After saying this, both of them looked at each other and laughed. Gu Wenxuan felt that Sam was straightforward and had a sense of humor, and was a foreigner worth interacting with.
