[Chapter 484: Sothing's Not Right]
"Sir, the think tank determined that Japan may raise interest rates again. There's a lot of talk about suppressing housing prices. Even though the stock market is still rising, it clearly lacks upward montum, and trading volu has increased significantly. We believe so big players are starting to scale back."
"Haha, then let's liquidate everything. We're going on vacation anyway."
"Everything? Won't that have so impact?"
"Hahaha, why should I care? If anyone's going to have a headache, it should be Rockefeller and Morgan Stanley."
"Alright, sir, I'll get started right away."
"By the way, has my property transfer been settled?"
"The last paynt will arrive in three days, sir. Congratulations!"
"Haha, let's go ahead and pay the bonuses early. Our boys should be heading ho."
William White began to withdraw, and naturally, the consortiums took notice. In fact, the Arican conglorates were planning to run as well.
However, their positions were heavier than William White's, and the amounts invested were substantial. Scaling back was possible, but they couldn't make too much noise about it.
Faced with the rampant selling by the White Fund, a group of old-tirs ground their teeth in frustration. Thankfully, the stocks he was dumping were of good quality, and many of the shares were still being bought back by the Japanese investors themselves.
Everyone was trading stocks, which described the situation in Japan. Housewives flocked to purchase stocks, creating quite a sight.
Many didn't understand -- what's the big deal about housewives? They don't have much money anyway.
Hehe, many people saw on TV that the won in Japan were obedient, keenly tending to their husbands.
What the TV didn't tell you was that about ninety percent of the husband's inco went to the wives. As for the remaining ten percent, that covered transportation and cigarette costs.
If you plan to grab a beer or sothing before heading back, you better pack a lunch from ho, or it just wouldn't be enough.
This part of the money had all been deposited in the bank. Now the housewives clearly had better aims.
Their own houses were increasing in value, and stocks were doing the sa. The money earned each month from the stock and real estate markets greatly outweighed what their husbands brought ho. Well, everything seed fine, and sure, they could spare an extra ten thousand yen for pocket money.
...
"Sir, William White is liquidating his investnts in Japan."
"Is the move substantial?"
"Definitely larger than before; it's just we can't get precise information."
"Sothing seems off. Where is that money going?"
"Most of it is headed for London. We also learned so news through London; he now has his own clearing bank. We can't accurately gather information anymore."
"Alright then, let's start scaling back as well. The risk is too great now. Since this guy's money isn't going into oil, he must be cashing out."
"Oil? Rockefeller must be going crazy."
"Haha, this ti, the top spot for the big conglorate has finally returned to Morgan Stanley. Rockefeller? That shaless guy is even playing the sympathy card, selling the family-nad building -- what a dramatic act!"
William White had no interest in the oil industry; he had said as much. It was unlikely he would touch that sector anyti soon.
The unusual movents of Arican capital naturally alerted the Japanese consortiums. After all, they weren't fools.
Even though the Japanese and Arican conglorates were scaling back, they weren't doing it in the sa way as William White. They preferred to take two steps forward and then one step back. If stock prices clearly dropped, they must take action to buoy the stock prices.
All the market players around the world operated this way, occasionally pushing out so favorable news. It must be said, their maneuvers were quite strategic, though if they could manage to predict six months ahead, that would definitely be better.
...
"Honey, I'm not going this ti, is that okay? It's inconvenient."
"Aw, co on, what are you talking about? Who doesn't know about us? Plus, you'll have a doctor with you, what could go wrong?"
"It's just... you'll be unfortunate!"
The young Michelle Reis blushed a bit.
"Haha, that's no problem. We have other thods, right? By the way, have you watched those Japanese specialty films? They can be excellent teaching materials!"
"Pff, you're terrible! How can those people do that?"
"Haha, you know, these things are pretty normal. I didn't show you the more outrageous stuff."
"Please, honey, I'm scared."
Hearing this, William White felt a bit disappointed but didn't mind too much. So things could only be changed gradually. If he pushed too hard, many beautiful things would lose their charm.
"Alright, fine. We'll talk about it when you're ready. I won't force you, I promise."
"Really, honey, is it really that comfortable?"
"Try it and you'll find out, silly girl."
...
Having soothed that matter, William White remained busy. There was a big princess needing attention in his backyard.
Despite being a jerk at tis, he always tried to carve out a little ti for his daughter when he wasn't too busy.
"She's really beautiful." He told her a story to finally calm her down.
"Humph, you an because her teeth look nice?"
[T/N: There is a remark that Japanese won have saw like teeth in the original novel.]
"Don't say that! Yours are pretty nice too. Just be careful, rember, I got hurt last ti."
"I'll bite you to bits!"
Having spent enough ti with William White, Suzuki knew very well what he liked. While she loved this daughter, she still wanted to have a son.
Well, that's what her mother taught her. Although she didn't want her daughter to live in an ambiguous situation with him, given the circumstances, her daughter didn't want to leave either.
Besides, aside from the marriage, that jerk wasn't too bad. If she wasn't willing to leave, she might as well have a few more kids.
You have to know, this child didn't carry the Suzuki na.
Naming a super yacht after his daughter was, in fact, a formal acknowledgnt of that child.
What baffled her most was that the Arican public seed indifferent about this matter.
Well, while so were excited and envious, mostly it was jealousy rearing its head.
William White was quite pleased to manage the two won in his life. Ho discord was the last thing he wanted to deal with.
In truth, he overthought it; the won were clever. Instead of squabbling at ho, they might as well unite.
After all, their man was quite a handful.
There were nurous temptresses outside. If there was turmoil at ho, he would definitely venture out. A little fun was fine, but bringing back too many would be a hassle.
Sotis, William White wondered if he should change his faith. He just didn't know if the Almighty would be angry. The wealthy folks in the desert probably wouldn't mind; they might even find so enjoynt in it.
Tsk, tsk, with four wives, his maneuvering space would be much larger. Hmm, he could let them compete for his attention.
