   A small round table, surrounded by five well-dressed men, they are playing poker attentively.

   Gambling is always an effective way to quickly pull in relationships. When Lynch, who officially entered the community, expressed his intention to hold a small friendship card meeting for the first time at a community event, he quickly attracted some people's attention.

   Thanks to Lynch’s frequent appearances in newspapers recently, and even overturning the investigation team leader of the Sabine City Taxation Bureau, some people may subconsciously avoid excessive close contact with him, but some people are willing to get close to him.

  The tax bureau is the enemy of every high-income group. Someone can make the tax bureau stumbling. For these people who rack their brains to avoid tax every month, it is definitely something that makes them feel happy.

   What's more, being able to move into this community also means that at least Lynch already has the ability to talk to them on an equal footing at the economic level. They don't mind broadening their personal connections.

   In such an environment and atmosphere, the first meeting of the card meeting of friends was successfully held.

This is a gameplay that is different from any gameplay that Lynch knows in another world. It has five players and ten cards for each player. The rules are simple. The core is exchange. When the exchange is over, the comparison is performed. Card.

  Before the game starts, everyone has to top the next ending card for himself. After the final hand is formed, he must meet his own requirements for the card type, and then score and deduct points according to the size of everyone's card type.

   In addition to the "cards" used to exchange cards, there are also game points. Before the game, everyone took out two hundred yuan, of which one hundred yuan became their bottom score-one hundred points.

   The remaining one hundred pieces become the public points in the points pool, which is the remaining five hundred points.

   After the game is over, everyone can get the same amount of money in their hands.

This is a very popular gameplay that has swept the entire world. Many people think that it has the core foundation of commercial trade. Every game is a fierce trade war. Everyone represents a company and a company. The chamber of commerce is even a group, and the point pool represents the bank.

Victory is not just as simple as winning as much as possible, because the trading of points often occurs in the process of changing cards. This is a real game. Sometimes the person who has been winning loses money in the end and always loses. The person who may have won some.

The name of this gameplay is called "Piaeva", which is a word with many meanings. It can be regarded as the core of the game "payment", or it can be regarded as the "request" after victory. It has no charm. Resistible and popular all over the world.

   Not far from these gentlemen, several ladies are sitting on wicker chairs near the floor-to-ceiling windows, tasting the finest scented tea while competing for beauty.

  Of course, their topics are always inseparable from fashionable things, from fashion conferences, to the new season of jewelry design exhibitions, to the new movies and the movements of some celebrities and politicians.

   Sometimes it is difficult for men to find that their wives are so knowledgeable and versatile. It seems that they know a little about everything, which is completely different from the stupidity of being alone.

   is like when women are sitting together, vanity is constantly breeding and starting to fight for beauty. Men sitting together will also chat about something, not just the things on the card table, but also the things outside the card table.

   "The economic development index in the first half of the year dropped by 11 percentage points from last year. The economic recession is already very obvious. When do you think this will continue?"

The man who was talking was a gentleman sitting opposite Lynch. He was wearing a shirt with silver rims. At this moment, he rolled up his sleeves less elegantly, and the thick body hair on his arms was exposed, giving people a very strange appearance. feel.

   It's like..., there is an orangutan disguised as a human being and mixed in between us.

  He is a factory owner. The cheap labor and various expenses in second-tier cities have become the favorite place for factory owners to gather. Opening a factory in a second-tier city can save a considerable part of various expenses compared to opening a factory in a first-tier city.

  Land use costs, warehouse rental management costs, including the most expense, labor costs.

  Another gentleman shook his head, "We all feel that the market is shrinking rapidly, goods cannot be sold, and profit margins are declining, but the financial market is still very prosperous. It is said that the Baylor Industrial Index has reached a new high!"

   The other gentlemen, including Lynch, couldn't help but laugh. The laughter was full of ridicule. Maybe they didn't know why they had such emotions and why they laughed.

   They just rely on their own feelings that these things are not normal. The stagnation or even regression of economic development has not affected the performance of the financial market, but frequently creates miracles, which is very problematic.

   In fact, some economists have already expressed their views before Lynch’s crossing, that the federal economy will soon be hit hard, but most people ignore these views in a frenzy that seems to have been brainwashed.

   The truce around the world has brought the long-lost peace to the world. Most people think that the war is gone and people start to develop the economy. The economy will only get better and better, not worse.

Some economists timely put forward the unheard of "top rebound" and successfully became the only cognition in the eyes of the people. They believe that the current short-term downturn is just the whole society digesting economic results, and soon The economy will usher in another round of rapid development.

   People are willing to believe those claims that are beneficial to them, even if they know in their hearts that the claims may be incorrect, they have to force themselves to believe that they are correct.

The gentleman sitting to the left of Lynch took out a card and placed it on the table. Now it was his turn to call, "One point, I need a card Ⅸ◆...", he picked it up and put it on the ashtray. The pure color of the painting took a sip, and slowly spit it out, "If the financial market continues to maintain such a high momentum, it may continue for a long time."

   After he said this, the other gentleman took out the nine diamonds and threw it to him, and took his exchange card and a chip representing one point from his hand.

The game is still going on, and everyone knows that the unexpected prosperity of the financial market means that many people are still benefiting~lightnovelpub.net~The income of the financial market makes up for the current situation that they are losing money, and there is even a large amount of surplus. , So more money began to flow from the real economy into the financial market.

The digital game market has become more prosperous because of the rapid influx of hot money. Many business owners are shrinking their physical businesses and putting money into the financial market to use money to make money, which is better than waiting for those things that cannot be sold to get back. It's much simpler and easier.

  The gentlemen in this room almost have their own stock accounts and futures accounts. In addition to socializing everywhere, they listen to stockbrokers or futures brokers telling them how much money they have made today.

Although they have been making money, they are still worried that this is a phenomenon that violates common sense, but they don’t know what to do, so they can only silently follow the development of the times, and are swarmed by the torrent of the times. The unknown ahead.

   "By the way, Lynch, may I call you that?" After getting Lynch's confirmation, the talking guy continued, "What is your business?"

Lynch and another gentleman reached an agreement to exchange. While tidying up the sorts in his hand, he replied, "I have a service company and an auction house. If you have any good business to take care of me, please come and find it at any time. I."

  People are always curious about things they don’t understand, "Auction houses? Is it easy to make money in this industry?"

   Lynch shook his head, "No bank is easy, gentlemen, all we make is hard money."

  People asked some more questions, such as the name of Lynch’s auction house. When they heard that Lynch’s auction house was not aimed at the middle and upper class of society, they lost interest.

  Of course, the game is still going...
