[Gone With the Wind] Daughter Difficult

New York, Wall Street.

Butler Securities, New York.

"Captain, just now the little captain sent a telegram." The secretary broke into Rhett's office without knocking on the door, he was out of breath and his face was blue.

Rhett even felt that he was trembling all over, as if he had encountered something out of his mind: "What did Bonnie send?"

"There is only one sentence, the president was assassinated and killed, the captain...how do you think the little captain would send such a message." The secretary gasped, unable to calm down at all.

"Say it again, what did she say?" Rhett's heart was shocked, and he also thought that there was something wrong with his ears.

"President, assassinated, dead." The secretary said word by word. After thinking for a while, he put the translated telegram directly in front of Rhett, "There are only these few words, Captain." Does this word have other meanings?However, it was because the meaning expressed by these simple words was quite appalling, which made him completely lose his ability to think.

Reid picked up the straw paper handed to him by the secretary and looked at it over and over again. Suddenly, he slammed the small paper on the table with such force that the secretary thought the table was about to be smashed.

"Hurry up and send a telegram to Washington to inquire about the assassination of the president and find out the exact news." It is impossible for Bonnie to send him such news for no reason, and Rhett is almost certain that the current president is dead.

Reid immediately thought that according to relevant laws, if the president dies unexpectedly, the current vice president will replace him.But he hasn't received any official announcement about the president's death yet. I'm afraid it's due to the lag of the official news. If the president is assassinated, the biggest impact may be... "Also, give all the agents to I called to the conference room, and an emergency meeting will be held in 10 minutes." Reid ordered.

"Okay, I'll let them prepare right away." The secretary turned around but then turned back immediately. He looked at Rhett, "Captain, so the President... is really dead?"

At this time, Rhett, who was thinking about it all over again, no longer wanted to answer this question: "..."

The secretary is a person who knows how to read facial expressions. Seeing Rhett's expression as if he was about to punch someone, he immediately said with interest: "Okay, I understand." Then he turned and left.

"Wait," Rhett said, the secretary's back was obviously paused, and he directly ordered: "Let Bonnie come to New York by train immediately."

"Understood, I'll do it right away." The secretary escaped from the office like a rabbit.

At the meeting, Reid did not hide the news of the president's assassination from the securities brokers, but announced the news to everyone.

"I'm not kidding." Red adjusted his face as much as possible to look more serious.

"I do not believe."

"how is this possible?"

"Are these anarchists too rampant?"

……

"I know you have a lot of doubts in your mind, but please keep your mouths shut, now is not the time for discussion." Reid tapped the floor with his cane, "We also don't have time to discuss whether this matter is reasonable."

According to the sensitivity of Wall Street brokerages to news, they may soon or have already learned that the president has died, and what they want to grab is this moment.

The death of a country's top leader will inevitably cause a certain degree of turmoil in the country's politics and economy. Although the president of the United States has a backup, it cannot make up for the impact of the president's accidental death.

Recently, the situation on Wall Street has been turbulent with the tension of the political situation. Both stocks and bonds have fallen, and bond yields have reached dangerous levels. However, because of the death of the president, Reid's previous layout was broken.

Reid can already foresee the next situation. The already precarious US dollar is bound to depreciate again. People will frantically exchange their US dollars into gold, for fear that the banknotes in their hands will become a piece of waste paper, and the prices of bonds and stocks will also fall. As a result, it will fall, and any market behavior at this time may cause a new economic crisis.

Reid gave each agent one-on-one instructions on what to do in an orderly manner, "Everyone must race against time. If you miss these moments, your shrewd minds and arithmetic skills will tell you how much commission and dividends you lost today. Now go back to Go to your post, hurry up!"

☆

At [-]:[-] p.m., the federal government officially announced the news that the president had died due to an assassin. The flags across the country must be flown at half-staff to mourn the death of the president. At the same time, it was announced that the vice president would be sworn in as the new president.

There was a time difference of three hours between getting the news from Red and the official announcement to the whole country.

During this period of time, there was a big movement on Wall Street. Under the leadership of large institutions, small investors who had not received any inside information frightenedly followed suit and sold their stocks. The stock price reached a historical low in an instant. Brokers bought the bottom and bought a large number of these sold stocks and bonds.

After the official announcement of the president's assassination, the dollar began to depreciate step by step. Small investors who had just exchanged their stocks for banknotes wanted to cry without tears. The price of gold on the black market began to rise, causing these people to suffer heavy losses.

The more developed the region, the more sensitive it is to the situation.

After the incident, New York was the area with the most economic ups and downs, and people in the entire city experienced the darkest days in these two days.

Radiating from New York, an upsurge of exchanging dollars for gold began to spread across the country.

Many violent incidents have indeed occurred frequently because of the occurrence of runs.

Bonnie arrived in New York on the third day.

The supply of gold is in short supply, the dollar has been depreciated repeatedly, and from the information they have received in Washington, the treasury's gold stock has once again entered a state of emergency.

The first problem that the new president encountered after taking office was a crisis of confidence, and the financial problem was even more overwhelming.

Although Reid made a lot of money because of the back and forth news in the past two days, it didn't make the captain feel better. He was exhausted after fighting the battle for the past few days.

However, it was only when he saw his daughter that he couldn't help complaining: "This incident completely disrupted our previous deployment."

Bonnie was actually very distressed: "He also disrupted my previous plan. Originally, Morgan couldn't help but make a move, and we have already directed public opinion in a direction that is beneficial to us—"

In the past few days, she has been completely open to tricks, and because of the occlusion of information, her layout has been seriously affected.

For Bonnie, if there is anything in modern times that is most memorable, it must be a mobile phone that can be contacted in real time as long as there is a signal, preferably a smart one.But in this age, she can only succumb to the backwardness of technology.

"As a result, when the anarchists made a move, they dragged the entire organization into hell. The government will deal with these so-called 'radicals' in the next step, so this pawn is useless." She originally thought of using the helpless Governmentism hit Morgan and led public opinion towards feminist topics. As a result, she almost succeeded, only missing the finishing touch, which was extremely embarrassing. .

"Morgan hasn't returned to China yet. Could this be Morgan's own writing, directing and acting?" Judging from the agency's response, not only their family got the news in advance, but there were at least two others. All securities companies belong to the Morgan consortium, and even other securities companies and banks have been deceived by them. It may be too late to stop losses after the news is announced.

"It shouldn't be him. The new president is very unfriendly to big northern conglomerates like him and Rockefeller, unless our new president is also assassinated." In this way, she believed that this matter was written by Morgan.

Rhett raised his eyebrows: "You mean that McKinley is unlucky?"

"I'm afraid that's true." Bonnie didn't have a better answer, "But judging from the current president's previous actions against Morgan and Rockefeller, we should have a better chance of winning."

"You're right in saying that." Even though the previous layout was disrupted, didn't they also make a lot of money? Nothing is static, and the only thing that can change is to respond flexibly.

The two quickly entered into a state of discussing the next deployment in the financial industry. With Bonnie around, Rhett's thinking was exceptionally clear.

This discussion lasted for most of the day.

During this period, Bonnie discovered an important point. The current situation has reached a point where it is life and death.

On the road for the past two days, Bonnie has been thinking about another problem.

The former president belonged to Morgan, but the current president is just the opposite. If she can take advantage of the bad relationship between the new president and Morgan and others, then maybe the equal rights issue she has been fighting for will get a breakthrough.

"Dad, I have something I want to discuss with you."

At work, Bonnie generally calls Rhett the captain, and since Rhett came back, this title has returned.

Bonnie suddenly called him Dad in the office, and Rhett was still not used to it.

But also because of the word "Dad", Rhett felt that he would never be able to refuse his daughter's request.

"Now the treasury is running out of gold, I want to make a deal with the new president..." Bonnie raised her head and looked at Rhett firmly.

Bonnie said a beginning, and Rhett already understood what she wanted to do.

Because of Morgan's absence, Bonnie happened to use the gold stored in Butler's house to increase the treasury's gold inventory, achieve the purpose of economic data recovery, and thus consolidate the authority of the new president. Next, other issues can be discussed easily.

"Baby, did I tell you from the beginning that any change in the way of manipulation can't change the essence of capital, so feel free to do what you want." Taking a step back doesn't mean they will suffer, "I think Shareholders of Butler & Co. will understand your decision."

"Dad, I love you." Bonnie couldn't help cheering, and she pressed a kiss hard on Rhett's face.

"Without further delay, this matter must be signed with the federal government before Morgan has time to respond"

"I'll contact Congressman Fan Jersey immediately, Dad, I'll leave it to you here." Bonnie left the office like a breeze.
