"Yes, they are indeed very stupid. This is tens of billions of dollars worth of gold, and they actually let us take it away like this?"

Clement Newman said this with an equally exaggerated expression.

Five million ounces of gold, that's 3.5 billion US dollars. It seems that the Federal Reserve can print so much money in a very short period of time.

6.7 million ounces of gold, that's 4.69 billion US dollars.

So, hundreds of billions of dollars worth of gold were taken away just like that. It’s hard to say who made a profit and who lost.

From the current perspective, Yunlan City must have suffered heavy losses, because on March 23, 1980 alone, Yunlan City traded more than 20 million ounces of gold.

In addition, many people have heard that there is a large amount of gold in Yunlan City, and many capital tycoons have rushed here, ready to take away all the gold.

Therefore, on the next 24th, 25th and 26th, Iskushuban Airport was extremely busy.

A flight takes off or lands on the airport runway almost every few minutes.

Judging from the current situation, Iskushuban Airport will probably need to expand its runway soon, otherwise it will not be enough.

Zhao Mancang quickly signed the documents agreeing to the airport expansion.

Because the expansion of the airport will bring huge benefits to Yunlan City.

What's more, now it's not just passenger transport, there is also a huge amount of cargo traffic, so airport expansion is imminent.

In four days, Yunlan City transported away more than 60 million ounces of gold, and the price of gold continued to fall due to Yunlan City's market crash.

The global gold market cooled down in just a few days.

Therefore, after March 26th, the gold trading market in Yunlan City became a little quiet.

It’s not that there is no one in the gold trading market, but that everyone’s trading volume has plummeted a lot, so it seems deserted.

Everyone is thinking about one question, that is, how much gold is left in Yunlan City?
John Morgan, Betley Rockefeller and others who returned to Yunlan City could no longer laugh.

They thought they had made a fortune, but after a few days, Yunlan City was still selling gold continuously. The key was spot gold.

Now it seems that Yunlan City itself is the one that has made a fortune.

Even though the oil crisis has not yet passed, the price of gold has plummeted to $470 per ounce.

This price is a full $230 lower than the $700 per ounce they bought it for a few days ago. This is too scary.

Although they didn't lose money, Yunlan City shouldn't have made any profit, right?

The Federal Reserve must have made a profit. After all, there was not much gold in their treasury to begin with, and this wave of investment caused the amount of gold in their treasury to skyrocket.

Whether it is a profit or a loss, only Yunlan City itself knows.

Zhao Mancang knew it best, he must have made a fortune.

Because all the gold he sold was purchased at a price below two hundred dollars per ounce, and a lot of it was even bought at a price below one hundred dollars per ounce.

If you take inflation into account, the average price should be around one hundred and thirty to one hundred and forty US dollars per ounce.

However, the average price of the gold he sold now was US$600 per ounce, a difference of US$460.

A total of 65 million ounces were sold. Based on the price difference of 460 US dollars per ounce, Zhao Mancang made a full profit of 29.9 billion US dollars in this wave.

Even Zhao Mancang himself was very happy with such profits.

However, since it cannot be sold, then just continue to dump the stock.

Whether in Yunlan City, New York, Great Britain and other places, Zhao Mancang continued to sell gold, and all of it was spot gold.

He was not worried that he would not be able to get the gold back after selling it.

Because he naturally has his own way.

Recently, he has contributed a lot of funds to the development of Yunlan City and Beijiang City, so it is time to make some money back.

Just as he continued to smash the gold market, the Saudi Empire once again urged Lu Yangui, the person in charge of Yunlan City, to sign the contract as soon as possible. Their Saudi Empire wanted to continue turning the desert into an oasis.

For the Saudi Empire, they have already tasted the sweetness and of course want to continue cooperation.

But they couldn't get the technology, so they could only pay money.

Yunlan City is not in a hurry, but the Saudi Empire is very anxious.

They watched as Yunlan City thrived in car racing, gold trading, gambling and tourism, and also made many big moves one after another.

It would be strange to say that the Saudi Empire is not jealous.

After all, the Saudi Empire is also a desert, and apart from oil, it has no good industries.

Therefore, the Saudi Empire also wants to replicate Yunlan City’s economic development model and enhance its foundation.

When the Saudi Empire came to visit, other small countries such as the United Arab Emirates also came one after another.

At this time, the price of gold continued to plummet, and Zhao Mancang took advantage of this time to come to the Saudi Empire. He planned to look for the Saudi Empire's 50 trillion gold mine!
It just so happened that Lu Yangui told him that His Royal Highness Nasser Aziz, the Grand Prince of the Saudi Empire, had come to him again. In that case, he had to agree.

"Xiao Lu, tell them that the price of 5,000 square kilometers of land isn't as simple as increasing it tenfold. This time, we're charging them 40 billion US dollars!"

When Lu Yangui heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

Previously, the price of 500 square kilometers of land was only 3.2 billion US dollars, but now 5,000 square kilometers of land costs 40 billion US dollars?

Is it too much?
"This money is not easy to earn, just negotiate with the other party. If they are not happy, then forget it."

Zhao Mancang patted the other person's shoulder and didn't care too much about it.

"Please rest assured, I will definitely complete the task." Lu Yangui said respectfully.

"Well, I believe you!"

In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and the United Arab Emirates, the Persian Empire, the Date Palm Empire and several other countries also came here. They also hoped to obtain planting technology from Yunlan City, or help them build such an oasis home.

When Zhao Mancang learned about this, he was immediately filled with confusion.

Because weren't the Persian Empire and the Date Palm Empire fighting at that time?

There is still money to build an oasis?

Many people know that the Saudi Empire had previously built 500 square kilometers of land, but it also cost 3.2 billion US dollars.

But soon, Zhao Mancang figured it out, because once the desert oasis was built, it would not only be able to continuously grow food, but it would also be able to gather more people and make them feel at ease.

This is something that black oil cannot compare to. After all, for ordinary people, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all they want. Although oil is not bad, they do not have such channels and qualifications to sell it. Therefore, in the hearts of ordinary people, the status of materials such as food and water far exceeds that of oil.

Although Zhao Mancang is not a native of the Middle East, he comes here often and can more or less understand some of their confusing behaviors.

Since the UAE, the Persian Empire, and the Date Palm Empire also want to build such oasis lands, then we should agree to their request.

Why not make money if you have the chance?

But when Lu Yangui heard this, he smiled bitterly and said:

"Sir, we don't have that many farmers in Yunlan City. We simply can't mobilize that many people right now."

Because once we agree to the UAE and other countries, even though they only have 500 square kilometers of land, we will need to mobilize several thousand people.

Even though Yunlan City now has a population of over a million, there are still many projects under construction throughout the city, and people are needed everywhere.

When Zhao Mancang heard this, he waved his hand and said:
"Then recruit people. With money, why worry about not being able to recruit people? Tell those migrant workers in Fujian and Guangdong in Yunlan City that if they can recommend one person to come to Yunlan City, they will be rewarded with $10,000."

This method is somewhat similar to the internal talent recommendation system in later generations.

After all, the corporate talents who are able to join the company have classmates themselves, and their abilities and knowledge should be comparable.

Therefore, relying on such internal recommendations is indeed a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

Lu Yangui nodded immediately, but he hesitated. Was ten thousand US dollars too much?
"Ten thousand dollars is definitely not a lot. We can pay it in installments. For example, after the person he introduces enters Yunlan City and goes through the formalities, we can immediately give him five thousand dollars. The remaining money can be paid in installments based on the time his friend stays in Yunlan City for three months, six months, or a year."

"But this money must not be saved, and it must not be embezzled by others. You must supervise me on this point, otherwise, I will be the first to take your head."

Zhao Mancang has always had zero tolerance for corruption and bribery.

Yunlan City has a lot of high-tech, and they have all been applied. In addition, the bank is also his own, so it is relatively easy for him to supervise these senior officials and executives.

However, the management of the middle and lower levels is relatively complicated because there are more people.

Even so, as long as Zhao Mancang discovers something, he will definitely not sit and wait for death, but will take action immediately.

After discussing these things, Zhao Mancang returned to Beijiang City some time later.

Half a month later, I returned to Yunlan City.

The Yunlan City gold trading market now attracts a lot of people because the price of gold is fluctuating greatly.

Many people want to take advantage of this opportunity and make a fortune.

Due to the fluctuations in gold prices, the number of take-off and landing flights at Iskushuban Airport in Yunlan City has increased significantly recently.

This was something Zhao Mancang had never expected.

After all, according to his idea, the places that can attract outsiders to Yunlan City should be the sea of ​​flowers, car races, etc.

Unexpectedly, the gold trading market became the focus.

But on second thought, it makes sense. The price of gold fluctuates greatly, and for many people, that is an opportunity to make a fortune.

Especially for those who like to gamble, whether they buy futures gold or spot gold, there will always be gains and losses.

And many of them are able to use hedge funds to ensure that their own interests are not harmed.

For example, if they buy a certain amount of spot gold for bullish purposes, they will inevitably buy a batch of gold futures for bearish purposes for hedging.

In short, there are various forms, and they do not only purchase such financial products in the Yunlan City Gold Trading Market.

They also make purchases in different markets such as London, New York, and Frankfurt.

The data Zhao Mancang obtained showed that in the past month, more than one hundred new financial companies were established in the Yunlan City gold trading market.

This shows how big of an impact the recent massive sale of tens of millions of ounces of spot gold in Yunlan City had on everyone.

"How many ounces of spot gold do we have now? What is the current price of gold?"

After arriving at the office, Zhao Mancang immediately wanted to know the latest situation.

The person in charge quickly informed the information: there are still 12 million ounces of spot gold left, and the current gold price is US$437 per ounce.

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Mancang immediately gave the order:

"According to the price ranges of $400, $375, and $350 per ounce, immediately sell off our current gold one by one. Remember, sell it all within two weeks!"

"Okay, I'll do it right away!"

The person in charge had no doubts about this and immediately executed the order.

A month ago, he raised doubts and was scolded by Zhao Mancang.

What is there to be confused about?
He, Zhao Mancang, can do whatever he wants with his gold.

The reason why he was able to possess so much gold was naturally because he had many ways to obtain gold, and it was relatively easy.

You know, the Rand Central Gold Mine in southern Africa has been able to sell more than 800 tons of gold every year in the past ten years.

One ton of gold is equivalent to 35274 ounces, which means that million ounces are sold every year.

Therefore, there is simply too much gold in his system space.

Only a little over 100 million ounces of gold have been sold so far, but the impact on the market has been unparalleled.

In this case, he would lower the price of gold and make the profit from this wave.

Soon, with Zhao Mancang's table-turning action, the global gold market suddenly experienced a major earthquake.

The price of gold fell from more than 400 US dollars per ounce to 370 US dollars in less than half a month.

The price plummeted to the bottom, and many gold customers who participated in the buying spree were crying and screaming.

Especially financial giants like John Morgan, their faces turned black and they were in a very bad mood.

Who is behind this?

You have to know that they are the financial giants on Wall Street, but they did not make any money in this wave of gold market.

I made a little profit more than a month ago, but I have been losing money since then.

Fake!

They were almost going crazy, but soon, a piece of news came, which instantly made them shocked and angry! (End of this chapter)
