Getting the best from Tarkov

(Chapter 25, the whole chapter cannot be posted, anyway it does not affect the plot, if you want to read it, please look for it in the comment section)

It’s good to be able to accept US dollars. Being able to accept US dollars means that I can use the voucher.

But the question is, how do I use this voucher?

I converted it in my mind and found that 30 Thai baht converted into US dollars is about 9000 US dollars, less than 1.

It seems that I only have one $10,000 and seven $1,000 vouchers.

I tentatively took out the $10,000 voucher from my wallet and handed it over, and a magical scene happened.

What was originally just a thin piece of paper in my hand turned out to be a thick stack of brand new hundred-yuan bills in the hands of the shopping guide.

This not only stunned Liao Fan and the shopping guide, but also Feng Caier who was standing next to them.

When the salesperson turned around to look for change, Feng Caier asked quietly, "Why do you carry so many dollars with you? And when did you withdraw them? How come I don't know?"

"Uh... that's just ten thousand. That's all."

Feng Cai'er looked at Liao Fan suspiciously and did not ask any more questions. She now knew that this man had many secrets. As a smart woman, she knew that she should not trace the source of a man's secrets, let alone this was just a companion.

However, this reminded Liao Fan that this time it was only 10,000 US dollars. What if he needed to use a 100,000 or even a 1 million US dollar voucher next time?

A cash box suddenly appeared? Even a fool could tell there was something wrong.

"Ding, host, please rest assured. Vouchers worth more than $1 will be issued by credit card."

Hmm. This damn system finally works. No, if I swipe my card, where's the password? Hey!!! System!!! System!!!

Convex (艹皿艹 ).

Just as he came to his senses, Liao Fan saw the shopping guide coming back with a small stack of banknotes.

Looking at the Thai baht on the table, Liao Fan picked up the money with a face value of more than 100 yuan and put it in his pocket, and gave the remaining change to the young man as a tip.

The shopping guide was speechless as he watched the two of them take the keys and leave together.

How could someone with tens of thousands of dollars in their pocket be so stingy when it comes to tipping? But looking at the 80-odd baht in my hand, I was still happy. It was much better than those hotel waiters who only get a few baht each time.

Stepping onto the yacht and gently stroking the rudder in front of him, Liao Fan felt in his heart that it was fortunate that he had obtained the ship driving skills by smashing the golden egg. Although it was only elementary, it was still enough to handle this kind of medium-sized yacht. Fortunately, the supervision here was not strict, and as long as there was no accident, he could solve it with money.

Now that the boat had been purchased, the two returned to the hotel to pick up their purchased luggage and all their daily necessities.

After much difficulty in moving all the large and small bags onto the boat, and after a voyage lasting more than an hour, we finally arrived at the pier of Gran Island.

After hiring a local guy, the three of them finally arrived at the villa they had booked in advance before sunset.

It is called a villa area, but in fact it is a resort area developed by the local tourism bureau.

All the villas here are only rented out and not sold. Fortunately, Liao Fan and Feng Caier had no intention of living here permanently.

The reason I bought a lot of clothes and daily necessities was because I was not confident about the quality of service here.

One of them is an antique shop owner with a net worth of hundreds of millions, and the other is a financial rookie with assets of hundreds of millions. If it were two months ago, Liao Fan really didn't care about the quality of life, but now he has gradually become picky.

The old saying is true: it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Liao Fan is in this state at the moment.

If he is forced to live the hard life he had before, it would be fine if there are no conditions, but if there are conditions, it would be better to kill him.

After giving a tip of 100 Thai baht to the local guy who helped him move things, Liao Fan accompanied Feng Caier to start packing up the small villa.

To call it a villa is actually a bit of a stretch.

The area is less than 300 square meters, and there is really nothing outstanding about it except that it is close to the beach.

The first floor is just ordinary, with a living room of over 100 square meters and a large kitchen that combines Chinese and Western styles. The only good thing is that there is a huge open-air balcony on the second floor.

There are quite a few bedrooms, a total of 5, large and small, but the small guest room is really small, with only one more window than the coffin room in the motel.

However, for Liao Fan, the only surprise was probably the absence of mosquitoes.

I don’t know if something was added to the building materials of the villa when it was built, but there is not a single mosquito in the house or even around the house.

After discovering this situation, Liao Fan and Feng Caier were overjoyed.

After the initial novelty, Feng Caier immediately became so sleepy that her upper and lower eyelids started to fight each other. She ignored Liao Fan and walked straight into the bedroom she had chosen.

After seeing Feng Caier leave, Liao Fan finally had time to log into his Tarkov game.

He took out the top-of-the-line gaming laptop he bought in Pattaya, connected it to the WiFi in the villa, and while waiting for the game to download, he checked his stock account.

Since he couldn't return to China in the short term, Liao Fan planned to try to make some money from US stocks or futures.

However, before that, we need to test whether the intelligence files can display information about US-listed companies.

Thinking of this, Liao Fan took out the blank information in the folder from the safe space and selected financial information.

Sure enough, after leaving China, the financial information shown in the intelligence documents was no longer limited to Chinese companies.

Moreover, this time, for the first time ever, a listed company famous all over the world appeared.

Vale, as a mining giant, its stock price not only attracts the hearts of the majority of investors, but also invisibly affects or is affected by the price of futures of mineral commodities.

Looking at the folder, the nearly 21% drop is truly alarming. A market capitalization of over 500 billion yuan might be reduced to just over 300 billion yuan by the end of the month. But why has it rebounded by nearly 20% in less than a month?

After looking up some relevant information, I found out that an open-pit mine was discovered in Eritrea, Africa...

As for why it rebounded... Oh my god, it's because these world-class giants are playing hard.

It turns out that this super-large open-pit mine is a fake, but with the cooperation of many giants, this fake news was packaged to be extremely real. After harvesting a batch of leeks, the fake news was disclosed, and the stock price will naturally rebound.

This game is huge. They are probably just cutting the leeks in the stock market by chance. The real target should be bulk futures.

But this doesn't mean much to Liao Fan. A drop of more than 20%, even if the rebound is added, the total is only more than 40%. Even with Liao Fan's mediocre trading skills, he can't handle it.

It seems it's time to seek external help.

Thinking of this, Liao Fan picked up his phone and called Yang Xue on WeChat.

"What did you say? The day after tomorrow, the share prices of major mining companies in the US stock market will plummet, and then rebound within a month or so? How did you know that?"

"Don't ask me how I know that. I'm just asking if you're interested."

"Are you sure the information is accurate?"

"I'm sure, absolutely sure. But you can't tell anyone about this, or I won't play with you anymore."

"No, no, no, I definitely won't tell anyone. But why are you telling me this news?"

"Of course I'm asking for your help. I have the information and the funds, but I don't have the technology. I'm looking for you to help me think of a way to set up a team during this period of time."

"Um... can't someone from the company do that?"

"What do you think?"

"Okay, let me think about it... Got it, I know who to look for."

"Who is it?"

"Then don't ask. Just rest assured. The person I find for you will definitely be fine."

"Um...Okay, so what are you going to do?"

"Don't worry about how you do it. Just send me the relevant information and your account number, and I'll take care of the rest. As long as you can ensure the accuracy of your information, I can maximize your interests."

"Okay, by the way, let me ask the chairman if she's interested. I have about 100 million yuan in funds, and I'm planning to take out 80 million. If you're confident, you can use leverage."

"...Okay, go ahead and ask. You're such a beast..."

After hanging up the phone, Liao Fan sent Yang Xue the stock chart shown in the intelligence file in text form. To avoid being exposed, Liao Fan did not send the original file directly. Fortunately, there was someone manipulating the market this time, so the small fluctuations should not have much impact.

After sending the message, Liao Fan called Tang Yunong on WeChat again.

"Hey, Chairman, I have something to ask you. I have inside information about a certain stock. Would you like to get involved?"

"Xiao Fan? Are you sure? Why are you asking me? Why not directly contact Manager Chen? You know, I never care about the company's specific investment plans."

"Um, Chairman, this is the case. My news is quite confidential, so I dare not disclose it directly to the company. If others know it in advance, it is very likely that something unexpected will happen."

"So mysterious? Which company?"

"Vale."

"Who!? The Vale from the mining industry?"

"Yes, that's him."

"Huh? ...Are you sure? How much money do you plan to take?"

"8000 million. I plan to use 8000 million this time."

"...Let me think about it. I'll get back to you tomorrow morning. By the way, have you taken a leave of absence?"

"Yeah, it's a personal matter."

"Okay, I'll get back to you tomorrow morning. Don't worry, I know the rules and I won't tell anyone else."

"Okay, Chairman. Good night."

Looking at the call records in her hand, Tang Yunong felt a little confused.

What's going on with this guy?

Didn't he claim to have no hidden identity? How could he have just spent 8000 million yuan on stock trading in just one month? Was what his childhood friend said true?

And that Vale thing? It seems to be a US-listed company. Does he have inside information about such a giant? He's not kidding me, is he?

This was a sleepless night for Tang Yunong, who was constantly hesitating whether to believe Liao Fan's words. She wanted to contact Chen Yanfang several times to help analyze whether what Liao Fan said was true or not, but in the end she restrained herself.

Yang Xue also had a sleepless night.

After hanging up the call with Liao Fan, Yang Xue was actually hesitating whether to believe what he said.

However, after she saw the message from Liao Fan, she was so shocked that she almost dropped her phone.

The news that several mining giants collaborated on exploration fraud sounds incredibly bizarre.

But when I saw that series of predicted stock market trend charts, it seemed to be true.

Finally, I gritted my teeth and did it.

It’s not your money anyway.

After making up her mind, Yang Xue called someone she rarely contacted.

This person is one of the few friends he has, and the two of them have been in the same school since junior high school.

After graduating from university, I joined this fund company, while the other party went to another fund to work as a trader.
