Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 827, Planning

"Daddy!"

Two half-grown children came over with smiles on their faces and called out to him happily.

It's a little better that Yang Zimo is a boy.

Qiqi then came over and hugged him.

Yang Xiaole hugged the little girl and laughed, "You've gotten so fat in just a few months!"

The little girl is now 14 years old, and she will be 15 in a few months after the Chinese New Year.

She's already 1.63 meters tall, a proper young lady.

As for Yang Zimo, he is over 1.7 meters tall.
The children in the family are all around the same age and are not short.

Qiqi pouted and said unhappily, "Hmph, where am I fat? I only weigh 103 pounds."

Then it spun around once, and the princess dress started spinning.

Yang Xiaole laughed heartily: "Not fat, not fat!"

"Hmph! That's pretty much it!"

Qiqi snorted, then came over and hugged his arm, laughing, "Daddy, how long are you going to stay here this time!"

"It'll probably be close to the end of the year! Maybe earlier, then we'll go together to let Grandpa and Grandma see you."

Yang Xiaole said with a smile.

"Oh? Really? What if Grandpa and Grandma don't like us?"

"I like it, I definitely like it!"

Yang Xiaole smiled and offered some words of comfort.

Then he looked at his second son and said with a smile, "Zimo, come here."

He also felt sorry for his second son.

From a young age, Hua Yourong has always held him to high standards, both in his speech and his daily life.

Even eating and drinking cannot be done as one pleases.

The pressure is quite high.

But he couldn't say anything; it was for the child's own good.

"Daddy!"

Yang Xiaole ruffled his hair and smiled, "You've grown taller again. Where do you want to go for vacation in a few days?"

Yang Zimo hesitated for a moment and looked at Huang Qiujing.

Seeing this, Huang Qiujing laughed and said, "Zimo, your mother told me to keep an eye on you, but Dad is back, so I don't have the final say at home. It's okay, go ahead and talk!"

She also felt sorry for the child.

If Yang Xiaole couldn't say anything, then she certainly couldn't say anything either.

Hearing this, Yang Zimo was overjoyed.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I want to go fishing! To the sea!"

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Okay, the Double Ninth Festival is in a few days, and it falls on the weekend. We'll go to the high seas as a family then."

"it is good!"

Yang Zimo was overjoyed.

Looking at the two happy children, I thought of two more in mainland China.

They're still too young. We'll take them on a trip when they go to college or graduate.

Or summer vacation would also be an option.

Now that he no longer works within the system, many things will be much more convenient for him.

After chatting for a while, the group took the children to Hua Yourong's house.

……

"Master, Mom (Aunt Su), Jingcheng!"

When Yang Xiaole arrived at the place, he greeted the three people in his family with a smile.

Huang Qiujing naturally greeted them as well.

"Grandma Su, Grandpa Shi! Uncle!"

The two children also greeted them.

Hearing this, Su Ling smiled happily and said, "Come in! Qiqi, go play with your little brother!"

Since Qiqi often comes to our house, we don't need to be polite.

Seeing this, Qiqi left with Yang Zimo.

……

After everyone sat down, Yang Xiaole smiled and asked, "Dad went to the mainland too? When are you coming back?"

"I don't know! We invested in a battery factory in mainland China, and there are a lot of things going on there."

After Su Ling finished speaking, she asked with a smile, "How's things on the mainland lately?"

"The mainland is doing well! I've quit my job and started my own business, so I'll have more time to come here in the future."

"Oh, that's good. The children only see you a few times a year."

Yang Xiaole hummed in agreement.

He looked at Master Su and smiled, "Master, I heard you're going back to the mainland?"

The old man nodded gently: "Yes! The houses in the mainland have all been cleaned up now! I'm also preparing to go back. Your second brother is doing well now, and I don't need to take care of the children. Go back and visit! I don't want to die out there."

If we can't go back, then there's nothing we can do.

Even after all these years, he still longs to go back.

Yang Xiaole nodded gently: "Okay, then let's go back. Mom, this is what I'm planning. This year, we'll all go back to the mainland, and I'll take the kids back to see their grandparents too."

After thinking for a moment, Su Ling agreed: "Sure! We've already vacated our house. We're all going back to the mainland this year. The kids are all grown up now, it's time for them to visit their grandparents."

Yang Xiaole hummed in agreement, then said awkwardly, "Um, Mom! You know, the laws in the mainland are different from those here, so..."

I'm a little embarrassed to finish saying it.

Su Ling naturally understood what he meant.

"You've made sense to me. Let's meet at the BJ Hotel then!"

He then said, "But this matter still needs to be resolved!"

"I know! I'll handle it as soon as possible."

Yang Xiaole had a headache, but still agreed.

That's how it was decided.

Then he looked at Master Suo and said, "Old man, museums are not allowed in mainland China right now. In two years, when private museums are allowed in mainland China, I will put the museum's items on loan and you can manage them there. What do you think?"

It also gives the old man something to do.

To avoid being too idle.

There are just too many supplies on Hong Kong Island.

In 83, the Foreign Visitors Service Department of the National Museum sold works by modern and contemporary painters in exchange for valuable foreign exchange to support national development.

In my past life, it was all bought by a Hong Kong businessman surnamed Xu for HK$28.

Many furniture factories also have warehouses filled with furniture from the Ming and Qing dynasties, which was once bought by Chen Lihua, the woman who ate Tang Sanzang's flesh.

Yang Xiaole then had those things collected in advance.

There are all kinds, and even many national treasures.

Now we can open a museum in mainland China.

He didn't make money from these things; he just felt it was a real waste to keep his ancestors' things hidden away.

Many series can be made.

However, private museums are not yet open to the public in mainland China.

So it will take some time.

The old man thought about it for a moment and then agreed: "Okay, we'll talk about it later."

"Okay, that's settled."

That's how things were settled.

Huang Qiujing, given their special relationship, didn't say much.

Yang Xiaole looked at Hua Jingcheng beside her.

So many years have passed, and the little guy has grown into a young adult.

I'm a junior at university on Hong Kong Island this year.

"Jingcheng, what are your plans for the future?"

Hua Jingcheng smiled upon hearing this: "Brother-in-law, I plan to go to MIT in the United States next year for further studies." Yang Xiaole nodded gently: "That's good, it's always good to learn more."

The Hua family is not short of money, but they still lack a core figure.

After all, these assets belong to Yang Xiaole. Even though they receive a lot of dividends every year, they are not their own businesses.

It's estimated that Hua Jingcheng will eventually start his own business again.

The group then chatted for a while.

……

After having dinner at home that evening, the group left.

After all, this is my maternal grandmother's house.

For the next few days, Yang Xiaole didn't go anywhere; he stayed there with Huang Qiujing to finalize the follow-up arrangements.

"Xiao Le! The New York Stock Exchange and the Japanese Stock Exchange are relatively okay! After all, this is a capital operation, and a large number of Wall Street capital will follow. We have a certain status on Wall Street, so we can understand that."

But isn't the risk too high with the Russian side? What are your plans?

Some things still need to be discussed in detail.

Yang Xiaole knew the general direction, but the specific operational details still required cooperation from others, and Huang Qiujing was more proficient in finance.

It can also fill in the gaps.

After a moment's thought, he said, "Indeed, it's quite obvious that what the bald eagle is doing is targeting the bear. This involves politics, so it's a bit sensitive."

The bald eagle wants to bring down the bear.

Then, a wave of harvesting is completed to make up for the shortcomings of the US dollar.

Add to that the harvesting of yen, and you have a perfect dollar tide.

However, if the Russian bear takes the lion's share of the spoils and the yen market profits, then that money won't flow to the bald eagle.

It will definitely be found out through investigation.

At that time, they will stand on a beautiful, independent surface.

wrong!

Or stand on the opposite side of those giant squid.

Over the years, his company has established itself globally, with involvement in various sectors.

It is now a behemoth.

They even had contact with the top families of those giant squid.

However, he couldn't quite gauge the other party's strength.

Since World War I, these giant squid have taken root in all walks of life and have become extremely powerful.

Of course, the other side also had no idea about their situation.

Companies on Hong Kong Island may appear large, but from the outside, they are actually quite ordinary.

This is also the result of things being hidden all these years.

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and said, "We also need a white glove. And I have a very suitable candidate."

"Who?"

"If a retired soldier from the Russian side were to receive this asset, it would appease some of the Russians' anger and leave the U.S. with nothing to say."

Ivanka is naturally the most suitable.

In recent years, Ivanka's activities in South Africa have gone beyond just setting up training camps and mining operations.

They also established a bank, and because of the backing of gold, the business did quite well. It wasn't famous worldwide, but it wasn't small either.

Huang Qiujing frowned and asked, "Can we trust them? Are they the armed people from South Africa?"

Li Yugang was in charge of matters in Africa, so she naturally knew some of the general situation.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly: "Absolutely trustworthy! So my plan is to transfer the money to the bank over there through a secret channel. You can also get involved in this matter, as long as you're not the ones who take the lead."

Huang Qiujing is, after all, from Hong Kong Island, which is a sensitive issue globally.

Although they are from the mainland, they haven't actually returned to Hong Kong.

Despite being called British, she is still a Hong Kong resident, and even if she has British citizenship, she is a dual citizen.

You need to think carefully before making a move against her, no matter which side you choose.

Just take a big bite.

Moreover, this whole affair is a conspiracy, and even if other capital gets involved to take a slice of the pie, the bald eagle won't give up.

On the contrary, we would be grateful to them.

Once the Russian bear falls, the bald eagle will be the sole ruler of the world.

This price was worth it.

Therefore, he still planned to let Huang Qiujing enter.

Eating a piece of meat is never a problem.

Huang Qiujing nodded gently.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Perhaps we can start with Wall Street. When something this big happens, someone will definitely call for action; otherwise, a single source of capital can't shake such a large market!"

However, we can plan ahead. When the time is right, we can then make a large-scale entry.

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, you decide what to do."

However, Huang Qiujing still didn't understand what methods the Bald Eagle wanted to use to destroy its economy.

Yes, it just destroyed the bald eagle's economy.

Yang Xiaole did not mention the fact that Mao Xiong had collapsed.

Hearing Huang Qiujing's question, he began to explain.

"You don't need to know the source of the information, but I can tell you their general operating methods."

He then explained the general situation.

The political situation was analyzed first, and then the economic situation was discussed.

"Their planned economy was inefficient: the rigid command economy led to an imbalance in resource allocation and a long-term shortage of consumer goods."

In the 80s, the Russian economy’s growth rate dropped from 10.3% in the 50s to negative growth.

In terms of the economy, there is also a distorted economic structure, an over-reliance on oil and gas exports (accounting for 54% of foreign exchange earnings) and competition. After the international oil price crash this year, the Russian economy collapsed, the civilian economy declined, and it became common for people to queue up to buy daily necessities.

The reason for this year's increased oil production is that it was all purposeful; in fact, it's all part of a series of interconnected events.

This is only part of it.

Russia relies on exporting gold every year to obtain a large amount of foreign exchange to purchase goods, which will inevitably lead to significant fluctuations in the gold market in the future.

This is an inevitable phenomenon.

Imagine if someone were aggressively shorting gold in the market. What would happen to the already weakened Russian economy, which relies entirely on gold exports for its survival?
Of course, the most fundamental reason is still the attack on the ruble; that's the root of the problem..."

Huang Qiu listened quietly.

Having worked in the financial industry for many years, I'm quite sensitive to this.

He frowned and said, "But this is all based on the intelligence you've received so far. If it doesn't happen, then our investment is meaningless and carries a great risk."

Yang Xiaole hummed in agreement.

Indeed, even if investment is open in a place with an unstable currency, the risks are still very high.

If we wait until things stabilize, it will be too late.

Pulling herself back to reality, she smiled and said, "I know what you're saying. Fortune favors the bold. Listen to me, when the time is right, you'll be in charge of guiding the operations there, including the subsequent transfer of assets. These are all issues that require a middleman. But the prerequisite is that we must bypass SWIFT."

Such a large-scale asset transfer requires a carrier.

Banks are an essential part of it.

Their banks on Hong Kong Island could share some of the costs, which was part of the reason he involved Huang Qiujing.

Swift was already integrated into the banking system in Hong Kong several years ago, and major banks in Hong Kong have started using the system.

If they don't circumvent the rules, the flow of funds will be detected.

He's not afraid, he's just worried that the mainland will be targeted.

He even needs to deposit a portion of this money in banks in other countries, and then gradually transfer it to South Africa and even Hong Kong through various channels.

These 20 trillion yuan will definitely shrink in the end.

Even if it's several trillion dollars, sitting in Hong Kong's financial system, it's still quite frightening.

It will play a significant role in stabilizing the financial system after Hong Kong's return to China.

Such a large asset is left there.

Even those in the mainland would have to think twice about the consequences of messing with the Yang family.

Of course, he is a patriot.
