Manhattan Reborn 1978

Manhattan.

Wildfire Bar.

David asked Jin Ji to give him and Mr. Otis Parker a fruit cocktail each.

Parker thanked Jin Ji in a gentlemanly manner, looked at the juice cocktail, and said with a smile: "I have long heard about the free juice cocktail in da nightclub. It was you who created it, David."

"On Wall Street today..."

David drank the cocktail in his glass, listened to Parker's polite words, and thought about what the middle-aged man in front of him wanted to do when he came to find him today.

"Mr. Parker..."

"Call me Odis~"

"Okay Otis, um... I guess we could be more direct?"

"I didn't sleep all night last night. I'm in a very bad state now. I need to go back and take some time to rest. You see..."

"Haha~ OK!"

Mr. Parker smiled and put down his wine glass, adjusted his sitting posture, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "We have already cooperated indirectly through Mr. Pine, David."

"I'm an intelligence dealer. Pine contacted me and told me about Jenny."

"Elena Mesa, who went to Jacksonville to find Jenny, is a friend of mine..."

"Oh?"

David was surprised and began to look at Odis Parker again, and asked with some uncertainty: "Intelligence dealer?"

"That's right~ Although many people don't think that my work is worthy of the name of intelligence merchant... Haha~"

"Well... I don't care what other people say, and I can't control it~"

"But if you are willing to choose to help Forrest Gump and Jenny, I need to thank you on their behalf here!"

With that said, David picked up his cup and gestured to the other party.

Mr. Parker smiled and raised his glass: "It's just a business..."

"It just so happened that Elena had been resting for a long time and needed a job, so I..."

"No, Otis, maybe in your eyes, this is just a business, a task."

"But for A-Gump and I, it's all the help you've given us. We all need to thank you for your help~!"

"So, Otis, you come here to see me today. If there is anything I can do to help, just tell me~"

"Forehead.."

Odis Parker put down his cup and nodded with a dumb smile.

This boy David is really just like what he learned from his investigation. He speaks simply and directly~!

"Okay~ Then I'll tell you the truth~"

"I came to you today because during the period after I returned to New York, I received seven requests for intelligence information investigation about you."

"Seven copies? What are they all about?"

"Well...if it's not convenient for you to say, you can just pretend I didn't ask~"

"Haha~ Since I have told you these things now, I have no intention of continuing to hide them."

"These investigations are all related to the MBS project."

"You mean...someone wants to know some MBS project information from me? And then you took over the business and did some research on me?"

"That's right~"

"But..." Odis Parker said, turning his head to glance at the people in the Wildfire Bar, and tilted his head slightly to indicate.

Seeing his action, David turned his head and glanced at the people in the bar, spread his hands and said, "It's okay~ We can talk whatever we want here~"

"ok~"

Mr. Parker nodded and continued: "Please forgive me for being presumptuous~"

"Everything related to business intelligence information is part of my job."

"I understand~ I have never thought about hiding anything about myself~ So, Mr. Parker, you really...can tell me anything you have to say~!"

"it is good!"

"During the time I was investigating you, I found that Giles and Pine of the Morgan family have reached many business cooperations with your company, and they are quietly buying some crude oil spot."

"I wonder if their move has something to do with you?"

"Well... you are really direct~haha~"

When David heard Mr. Parker ask this question, he couldn't help but smile and nod: "That's right~ We want to cooperate and make some moves in the international crude oil futures market."

"We just want to complete this plan in a low-key manner. I think Mr. Parker... you will understand!"

"Haha~Call me Odis~"

"Of course I understand what you mean, that's why I come to see you now!"

"Well... you came to see me, it shouldn't be... just for this matter, right?"

David felt that his mind was very clear now. He leaned forward, rested his elbows on the table, and asked with slightly squinted eyes.

"Of course not~"

"Here I want to apologize to you again David."

"In recent days, I have conducted a detailed investigation into all your experiences since you resigned from the Wildfire Bar."

"This includes your cooperation with the Sidrich family to establish the Da Group; including your acquaintance with Giles Norton Morgan and Pine; including what you once said in Bonini's restaurant Those words include the business you talked about in Da nightclub; including you and Giles on the top floor of the Blue Crystal Hotel..."

good guy~

As David listened to Mr. Parker's story, he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his nose. .

he. .Even what happened on the top floor of the blue crystal has been investigated clearly?

This. . .

How did he do that?

fxxx! ! ~

While Otis Parker was telling the story, he kept observing David's expression. Seeing that he looked like he had seen a ghost, a smug smile appeared on his face and he opened his mouth to explain.

"These are my jobs and the basis for my survival."

"Okay~"

David shrugged and let out a long breath: "Then you have investigated so much, so you should be familiar with the information on the MBS project, right?"

"Haha~ Are you talking about the mbs you guys talked about in Bonini's restaurant that night when Pine called me?"

"No, David, I don't know this!"

"I don't know any details about what you talked to Lewis Ranieri that day at Bonini's that led to his resignation from Salomon."

"But... you have guessed some, right?"

"Yes~ they are just some guesses I made based on the information at hand~!"

"So, David~" Odis Parker adjusted his expression and stared at David.

"Based on the information I have collected and my own analysis, I don't think you are just a person who can become friends with Giles and Pine due to luck."

"I don't even think that all the things you did during this period were all you... I saw in newspapers and TV news..."

"So, David, I'm curious!"

"Very curious!"

"How...how did you sort out and analyze the information obtained from the mass media and make a judgment?"

"Can you tell me?"

David looked at Mr. Parker who looked eager for knowledge in front of him with some surprise, and didn't know what to say. .

Emmm. . .

Is he going to tell Mr. Parker in front of him that David is David Jiang who was reborn 40 years later?

hehe~

This is the first time David has faced doubt head-on since he came to this world after experiencing rebirth, and it is also the first time he has faced such a direct inquiry.

"That... Mr. Parker... No, Otis!"

"Is your real purpose of coming here today to get an answer from me that satisfies your curiosity?"

"Yes...it's one of the reasons why I came here to see you today."

"So...if my answer satisfies you, will you tell me your other purpose?"

"That's right~!"

"Okay~"

David tilted his head, thought carefully, and tried to keep his expression serious and serious: "Since you have investigated my past experience and know some things about me, there is no need for me to hide anything from you. .”

"Actually... I don't know why I have changed like this~"

"You~" Mr. Parker squinted his eyes and said a word with anger rising in his mouth.

"Odis~ Please be patient and listen to what I have to say~"

"After I graduated from high school, I came to New York and worked at the Wildfire Bar."

"During this three-year period..."

In the bar, David told Odis Parker a complete account of his experiences in the past few years. .

During this period, David emphasized some of the changes he had experienced in order to make this lie more true. .

Including the departure of his ex-girlfriend Ruby. .

Including the one Ashley was found near a dumpster. .

And there's the psychotic Tom who has gone to see God. .

"Otis, these things made me think about something and make a decision one night when I was lying in bed."

"I want to change!"

"I want to bring something different to my life."

"I want to bring a better life to my relatives."

"I want to bring better futures and jobs to my friends!"

"I want to be a big shot!"

"I want to become a big shot on Wall Street in New York, known and admired by people throughout the United States and even the world, and spread word of mouth!"

"So, at that moment, maybe God knew about these strong wishes of mine and gave me some clearer guidance."

"It turns out that the news and information I obtained in bars, TV, and newspapers were constantly emerging, integrated, and reorganized in my mind."

"That's it~"

"I have everything I have today~"

"This is the answer you want."

"This is also the most complete answer I can give you~"

"Mr. Otis Parker!"

Um. .

Mr. Parker, after listening to David's nonsense and nonsense using God as a shield, fell silent.

He crossed his fingers and put his arms on the table. He tilted his head slightly and looked at David: "Are you kidding me? David?"

"Are you kidding? No, no, no~"

"It's all true!"

David waved his hands and wanted to continue saying something.

Mr. Parker shook his head: "Okay~ let's ignore it~!"

"I just want to know, did you let the Morgan family buy crude oil futures because you analyzed some information in the news and newspapers?"

"Correct!"

"Is it about the Middle East?"

"Uh...yes!"

"Let me guess~"

"In some news and information, you have found some signs that something may happen,"

"So, the place where you think big events will happen must be in the Middle East."

"So...will it be Iran?"

David's eyes widened slightly without his control, and his micro-expression was captured very keenly by Odis Parker.

"So, I was right, right David?"

"Uh...yes! You guessed it right!"

The proud smile on Otis Parker's face flashed away. He looked at David with some confusion and thought for a moment before saying: "Part of the reason why I returned to New York is because of it."

"But I'm confused. How did you analyze that a big event would happen in Iran?"

"You know, no one in the media around the world has ever stood up and suggested that the rioters in Iran will truly overthrow the existing Pahlavi dynasty."

"Because behind the Pahlavi dynasty, there is the support of the United States!"

"this.."

David is stuck. .

When Mr. Parker saw that David was silent, he continued: "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it."

"Stop making up lies to fool me ~ David!"

"Well... okay~ I'm just betting!"

"I bet the Pahlavi dynasty will be overthrown by its own series of stupid actions even if the United States stands behind it."

"bet?"

"This is a big gamble for you ~ David!"

"Haha~ That's right!"

"However, I trust my judgment!"

"you sure?"

"Sure!"

Mr. Parker looked at David's sincere and serious eyes and fell silent again.

His two thumbs began to intertwine and rotate in his palm.

It was obvious that he was considering something in his mind right now. .

When David saw that he stopped talking, he adjusted his sitting posture and motioned to Jin Ji to give him another glass of juice to make him more awake.

Otis Parker!

He is the most direct and difficult person David has encountered since his rebirth.

Every question Mr. Parker just asked directly hit the point that David couldn't explain. .

This guy seemed to know everything about David and also suspected everything about David.

After David thanked Jin Ji who brought him the juice, Mr. Parker ended his short thinking and asked David: "I... can trust you, right?"

When David heard this question, he couldn't help but smile and shrug: "My friends believe me."

"The Sidrich family believed in me."

"The Morgan family believed in me."

"I think... you can trust me too, Mr. Parker!"

"Hehe~"

Odis Parker heard David's answer and shook his head with a smile: "Just call me Odis~"

"I can tell you that I chose to come back to New York for another reason."

"However, I think you can agree to one condition!"

David thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay~ Please tell me!"

"Since you have chosen to let people from the Morgan family buy crude oil futures."

"Then you should also have a certain understanding of the international precious metal futures market, right?"

"Precious metals? You... mean gold?"

"No~David, let's not play riddles anymore~"

"Forehead.."

David looked at Mr. Parker's expression and began to frown and think: "What you said...isn't gold?"

"So.."

"Yes...Silver?"

"That's right~"

"Hi~ It's...that...that...Hunter brother?"

"Haha~ It seems you really know!?"

"Hahaha~ You guessed it, I guessed it!"

"Haha~ Your guess is still so accurate, David!"

"Um.. Just so so~! Hahaha~"

David was quarreling with Mr. Parker, but his heart began to surge with huge waves!

Crazy silver!

The most famous silver futures speculation in modern history!

Hunter family!

These pieces of information kept lingering and vibrating in David's head!

He remembered!

He remembered it all!

past life.

David Jiang's college counselor told them, the stupid boys who had not yet stepped out of college, about an incident that took place in the late 70s, about the Hunter brothers at the wine table. The story of manipulative, crazy Silver.

He, who was still David Jiang at the time, clearly remembered that because of this story, the conductor had to drink three more bottles of beer before he drank enough. .

Therefore, after David ended the game, he complained to his classmates: "The instructor is bragging and telling stories, and it takes a lot of wine~hahaha~"

amount. .

The legendary Hunter brothers spent seven or eight years laying out the international silver market.

With their strong financial resources and connections, they attracted the Saudi royal family as allies, and together they hoarded and went long on silver spot and futures, so that silver, which was originally only 6 meters per ounce, rose to 1980 meters per ounce in 50. about!

What he is doing is nakedly using capital to control and disrupt the market!

Later, if the U.S. government had not intervened, the Hunter brothers might have drained all short traders around the world and become the strongest king in the precious metals trading market and silver futures!

David couldn't sit still!

Ignoring that Otis Parker was still sitting across from him, he stood up directly and started pacing back and forth in the bar, trying to recall all the details in his memory, hoping to give himself a chance to get rich this time he almost forgot and get more information. support, basis.

wrong!

Suddenly, David realized an important point. This was not the familiar world in his memory!

This is the world of film and television!

The president of the United States is Warren White, whom he has never heard of!

There are even Andy, Forrest Gump, Jenny, Lavis and others here!

but.

Judging from the attitude of Odis when he spoke just now, this Hunter brother should really exist.

They should have made some moves in the silver market by now, making Austin Parker aware of it!

Almost 10 minutes later.

David, who was about to turn himself into a top, sat down again in front of Mr. Parker with a smile on his face.

His head was on overload now. .

David sat there, gave himself a moment to let his brain calm down, raised his head and asked, "What is the current price of silver?"

“Less than $6!”

"Then... what are your conditions? Mr. Parker!"

"Me? Haha~"

"Perhaps you can give me some conditions that satisfy me?"

"I'll bring it up?"

David frowned and began to overload his brain again.

"You know everything about me, Mr. Parker."

"It's impossible for me to do something to you here that I can't guarantee. I think you should be able to understand this."

"um, yes!"

"So...my condition is...if you want to make a profit on crude oil futures and silver futures."

"I'll cover all the handling fees for your investment!"

"I can help you maximize the leverage of all your investments so that you can maximize your profits!"

"No matter how much profit you get from this investment, it's all yours!"

"If this investment fails, I will bear all your losses!"

"As for the other conditions..."

"I think, Mr. Parker, we can negotiate now. If you have any conditions, you might as well just tell them and I can try my best to help you with them!"

"Haha~ That's enough, David!"

"Your conditions have exceeded my expectations!"

"Um...that's all?"

"that's it!"

"Of course, I also hope to gain your friendship, David!"

"I believe that our meeting today should be the starting point of our lifelong friendship."

Emmm. . .

"You mean..."

"Yes!"

"I might as well tell you clearly, David."

"I have never thought about making huge profits from crude oil futures and silver futures!"

"The money, the number in my bank account, is enough for me to squander."

"If I really want to make money, with my ability to obtain intelligence information on Wall Street, I can make the rice dollars in my wallet double again."

"But.."

Otis Parker's smile became a little weird.

"But, David, you are only 21 years old~"

"I'm very curious on what basis you base those puzzling judgments."

"After you mentioned the Hunter brothers just now, you have completely aroused my interest in you!"

"I very much look forward to being friends with you, being able to be close to you, knowing everything about you, and answering some of the confusions in my heart."

"I want to see what other things you will do in the future that surprise and puzzle me!"

"So, my terms are simple, David!"

"Just...be friends with me and watch me do things?" David asked.

"Hahaha~ That's right!"

"Um... are you a psycho... pervert?"

"My doctor in London also asked me this question... Hahaha~"

"this.."

David was speechless. .

Completely speechless~

What did he say?

Still available. .What should he say?

Otis Parker's current state reminded David of a conclusion he had heard from a psychology master who had studied it. .

The primary psychological satisfaction of human beings is food and clothing.

The intermediate level of human psychological satisfaction is that all the wishes in the heart have been achieved.

The ultimate psychological satisfaction of human beings is the sublimation of the soul and exploring more unknowns~

fxxx!

Does this somewhat perverted Mr. Parker want to get more satisfaction from exploring the unknown from David?

amount. .

Could it be that David's identity as an alien has been exposed~? ?

David looked at Mr. Parker who was laughing so hard that he really didn't understand what was going on in his head. .

"okok~"

"We're friends, right?"

"You don't have any other conditions, do you?"

"Haha~Yes~Yes~"

"Tsk~~"

"Then...okay~"

"If you won't regret it, then we are friends now!"

"In the future, if I want to do something, I will tell you!"

"Haha~ good~ good~"

"As long as you are willing to inform me!"

"Don't worry David, I don't believe in God, so I won't use him to fool you!"

"I can use my personality here to assure you that I will never harm you intentionally or unintentionally!"

"As long as you can satisfy my curiosity, I will definitely try my best to help you achieve your dream."

"Let you become the most eye-catching, richest and most powerful person in the world, bar none! Hahaha~"

"David, your dream, now that I think about it, it really makes me feel numb~"

"You will definitely succeed~haha~!"

Emmm. . .

David, who was speechless, choked up again when he looked at Mr. Parker, who seemed to have fallen into some inexplicable state of madness.

A few minutes later.

Odis Parker finally controlled his emotions and said with a blushing smile: "David, my friend!"

"When I go back, I will help you collect all the information about crude oil futures, silver futures and the Hunter brothers."

"My investment will be credited within 24 hours after you assign me the account number."

"Then...David, I'll take my leave now~"

Mr. Parker stood up, lowered his head to adjust his clothes, took David's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you~Thank you for your friendship~"

"Thank you even more for your stories~"

"Hahaha~"

"I believe you will not let me down!~"

"Um...I'll find someone to contact you!"

"Okay~ This is my business card. If you can't contact me during the day when I'm not here, you can call after 8pm."

"Okay...let's do it~"

David took the business card and watched Mr. Parker leave with a smile. He kept scratching his head and felt that the meeting between the two today was a little strange. .Magical colors are mixed in it. .
