Chapter 147 Pressure Mountain
In these years, among those clubs & associations in Xiangjiang that claim to have tens of thousands of members, one tenth of them who really dare to fight are considered good.
If it is really counted according to the head, there will be no British people in the whole Xiangjiang, because they can take the British one by one based on the number of people.
Chen Yi's security company has nearly 200 well-trained Gurka soldiers. Although the number is not large, they cannot stand up to these people's strong combat effectiveness.
In addition, the Guka soldiers do not know the local language, so most of them are very united, and the Guka people in Xiangjiang have basically served in the army, so many associations & groups dare not trouble them at all.
After knowing that Chen Yi had a group of Gurka soldiers with explosive combat power, the leaders of many clubs & groups greeted the boys below.
There is no way, these days you have money and people, no one dares to provoke you easily, Chen Yi now not only has money and people, but also has a backer, with the backing of the four big families with a deep background, the Li family, no one wants to touch you if you change Its moldy head.
As for the top clubs & groups with more than tens of thousands of people, their internal rules are stricter than anything else. Generally, as long as there is no direct conflict of interest, they will basically not take the initiative to find trouble.
"Okay, let's stop here!" In the car, Chen Yi saw a Sichuan restaurant on the side of the road, and stopped the car immediately.
Due to the large population in Xiangjiang from Guangdong, most of the roadside restaurants are Cantonese restaurants run by people from Guangdong, and there are relatively few northern cuisines like Sichuan restaurants.
The biggest feature of Sichuan cuisine is "spicy". Chen Yi has been under a lot of pressure recently and prefers heavy flavors. Sichuan cuisine can just stimulate his taste buds.
Walking into this Sichuan restaurant, I found that the scale of the restaurant is quite large, the upper and lower floors are two floors smaller, and the interior decoration is also good. Seeing Chen Yi and his party of more than a dozen people, the owner of the restaurant hurried out to greet him personally.
Led by the boss, Chen Yi and his party went to the second floor for dinner.
After serving tea to Chen Yi and others, the boss put the menu in front of Chen Yi and asked, "Chen Sheng, do you think I would like to introduce you to some of our signature dishes?"
Chen Yi was not surprised that the boss recognized him. He turned to look at the bodyguard beside him and asked, "Can you eat spicy food?"
One of the martial artists, Cheng Zhiqiang, glanced at everyone and said, "We should be fine, but I don't know if Basang and the others can eat spicy food."
The Basang that Cheng Zhiqiang was talking about saw several people looking at him, with a confused expression on his face, obviously he didn't understand what Cheng Zhiqiang said.
Speaking not-so-fluent Nepali, Chen Yi asked Basang, the strongest bodyguard among the bodyguards, "Basang, this dish is very spicy, can you eat it?"
The reason why Chen Yi learned Nepali was mainly to communicate directly with Basang and others. After all, out of ten bodyguards, six Gurkha soldiers were the best at fighting. In addition, his security company had the largest number of Gurkha soldiers. Direct communication, clear the thoughts of all the Gurkha soldiers under him.
"OK, boss" Basang was the leader of the six Guka soldiers. He glanced at the menu in Chen Yi's hand, and after speaking with the other five people, he made an OK gesture.
"Fish-flavored pork shreds, Kung Pao chicken, boiled pork slices, mapo tofu, double-cooked pork, chicken feet with pickled peppers, saliva chicken, spicy shrimp, fried beef with sharp peppers, roasted chicken with chestnuts, spicy chicken..."
Chen Yi took the menu and ordered a dozen or so famous Sichuan dishes.
"That's all, please serve the food soon."
"Brother Cheng, help me buy a pack of Marlboros. When I first came out, I seemed to have forgotten to bring out the cigarettes."
Recently, not only has his taste become stronger, but he also likes to smoke, especially when he is at HSBC, looking at the numbers that are constantly beating, he can't stop smoking one after another.
Looking at those time-traveling articles in the previous life, those predecessors made money in the stock market as easy as drinking water, but it really fell on me, selling hemp batches, and being nervous. Even if they knew the historical trend, who could guarantee that there would be no mistakes?
In case a big head enters the market, if you don’t pay attention, and you don’t make any money, your loss will be light. Under such long-term and huge pressure, not smoking a cigarette to relieve the tense nerves is not the whole thing. It is impossible to be seriously ill.

HSBC
General Manager's Office
Shen Bi, who hadn't gotten off work yet, was stunned for a few seconds after receiving a call, and after confirming with the phone several times, he hung up the phone and let out a sigh of emotion: "It really made him bet right, this is going to change ?”
During this month, not only Chen Yi was concerned about the situation in the Middle East, but Shen Bi was also concerned about the development of the situation in the Middle East.
Different from Chen Yi who can only know about it through newspaper media, HSBC Bank has branches in various countries in the Middle East, so Shen Bi knows more about the development of the situation in the Middle East than Chen Yi.
Before October, although the situation in the Middle East was tense and threatened to explode, Shen Bi didn't take it too seriously.
Oil is different from other businesses. The oil resources in the Middle East are in the hands of the governments of oil-producing countries and the seven major international oil giants. Therefore, no matter what the Middle East countries do, as long as everyone does not throw shells into the oil fields, it will not affect oil exports. .
But the situation is different now. There is news from the Middle East that the purpose of the countries in the Middle East this time is not to fight against Israel, but to restrict oil exports in order to retaliate against the European and American countries that support Israel. Want to unite and get rid of the control of the seven major international oil companies on global oil prices.
The move of the oil-producing countries in the Middle East to ban oil exports is simply crazy. You must know that the oil reserves in the entire Middle East account for more than half of the world, and more than 50% of the oil consumption in European and American countries is imported from the Middle East every year.
Once the oil-producing countries in the Middle East ban their own oil exports, it will not take long. As long as the blockade takes two or three months, there will be an oil shortage in developed countries in Europe and the United States.
It can be said that the oil-producing countries in the Middle East are risking the world's displeasure this time, and if they fail, they may be attacked by European and American countries.
Shen Bi thought about a lot, but as a businessman, capitalist, and general manager of HSBC, he is most concerned about the economic impact of this matter.
The first one is Chen Yi's foresight.
The other side deploys oil one month in advance. Once the news of the ban on oil exports by the oil-producing countries in the Middle East comes, the rise in global oil prices will become an unstoppable trend.
The other party invested 200 million Hong Kong dollars in the stock market, plus leverage, as long as the price of oil doubles, the other party may enter the ranks of the top richest people in Hong Kong overnight.
You know, it took Chen Yi only a few months to become a billionaire that everyone envied. Now if the other party's net worth doubles by ten times, what will it mean? It means that it took the other party only a few months to achieve the results that the bosses can only achieve in a lifetime.
