Chapter 999: Late Summer of 2003

next morning,

Before the sun came out, Jiang Hao got up and looked at the sky. The sky was so gloomy that it seemed that it was going to rain. Fox is located in a deep mountain valley on the west side of the Olympic Mountains, surrounded by forests. The sun is not seen for 300 days 360 days a year. The norm here.

I looked at my room again. It was an old house with old furniture. Jiang Hao’s house was a two-storey wooden building with a large area, but it had been around for some years. This was his home. After his parents died, he live here.

After taking a shower, he went downstairs to look for something to eat. He opened the refrigerator, and there was only bread, jam, and a bucket of milk in it. Jiang Hao looked at the date, and there was still one day to expire.

Poured a glass of milk, spread jam on bread, and had a simple meal.

After changing his clothes and going out, he found his own motorcycle in the tool room, an old Harley, which was his means of transportation. With a hard push, the motorcycle started, making the unique roar of Harley.

"Not bad, the engine is very powerful and well maintained." Jiang Hao murmured.

Riding a motorcycle, he drove through a section of dirt road before driving out of his manor. There is a large area of ​​land in the reserved area, all of which are privately owned by Indians. The area of ​​Jiang Hao’s farm is not small, about 300 acres , but because no one is farming, the land is barren, and there are two hills in the distant forest, which were left to him by his parents.

If these things were placed in the country, they would be an enviable wealth, but in the United States, especially in the Indian reservations, they are not worth much at all.

So now Jiang Hao is still a pauper.

The motorcycle drove into a manor, which was also the kind of wooden house. As soon as the motorcycle stopped at the door, a young man ran out of the house and jumped to Jiang Hao's side, grinning and showing his white teeth, "Joe Well, I knew you were coming when I heard the sound of the motorcycle."

The young man had long hair, casually draped over his shoulders. His upper body was naked, revealing his bronzed skin. He looked very strong. Jiang Hao patted the young man on the shoulder, "Jacob, why didn't you play with your friends?"

Now Jacob should be only 15 years old, he is indeed a teenager, but considering that he has such strong muscles at the age of 15, he has to say that he developed it early enough.

"I've been playing all summer vacation, and the whole day is the seaside mountain forest. It's not interesting. Cousin, how did you remember it today? What's the matter?" Jacob asked.

"Is uncle there?"

"It's in the house."

"I want to borrow a car from my uncle and go shopping around Olympia City." Jiang Hao said.

Jacob's eyes lit up, "Going to Olympia, can you take me with you?"

"no problem."

Walking into the room, Jiang Hao first hugged an Indian woman, who was Jacob's mother and his aunt, then looked at Billy in the wheelchair and said, "Uncle, I want to go to Olympia, today I'm afraid it's going to rain, so I'll borrow your car."

Jiang Hao was not polite at all. His memory told him that Jiang Hao's status in this family was similar to Jacob's. This uncle usually took care of him. Except that he didn't live together, he was actually no different from father and son.

Moreover, Jiang Hao is an adult, has a driver's license long ago, and often drives, Billy has nothing to worry about.

"The key is on the cabinet, go get it yourself," Billy said.

"Dad, I want to go to the city with Jon." Jacob said.

Billy shrugged, "Whatever."

In an old Ford pickup, the two brothers got into the car and drove towards Olympia. There were not many cars on the road, surrounded by dense mountains and forests. It was very fun to drive. After about an hour, the car arrived in the city of Olympia.

Olympia City is the capital of Washington State. It is said that the capital is actually not big, with a total population of about 50,000. Jiang Hao didn’t know if he could find what he wanted to buy. After walking around the city twice, he finally found one with a Chinese sign on it. The store in the store is a Chinese goods supermarket. Jiang Hao went in and found the boss, who was of Chinese descent.

"Do you have Chinese yellow paper, cinnabar, pen, ink, paper and inkstone here?" Jiang Hao asked.

The boss shook his head and said, "I have some daily necessities here. They are imported from China. The things are definitely strong, easy to use and cheap."

The chicken and the duck are completely incompatible. It seems that the boss doesn't know what he wants at all. I'm afraid he has to go to Seattle.

Although Olympia is the capital of Washington State, Seattle is the largest city in Washington State. There is also a Chinatown there, with Chinese grocery stores, shops, restaurants, antique shops, etc. In the last world, when Jiang Hao was working on Boeing, I have been in Seattle for a long time, and I have a better understanding of the situation there.

However, Olympia is two hours' drive from Seattle, so I'm afraid it's not a good time to go there today, and to be honest, he has no money now, and he can't buy anything when he goes there, so he called Jacob, and the two came to the bank soon.

"What are you doing at the bank Jon?" Jacob asked.

"I have some things to deal with, you can wait for me in the car first." Jiang Hao said.

Jacob shrugged.

Jiang Hao got out of the car and walked into the bank.

His purpose of coming to the bank is very simple, to get a loan. He thought about finding a place to do it, such as a certain bank, a certain jewelry store, etc., but finally rejected this idea, at least it is not suitable to do so now. .

He was going to make money, a lot of money, but if the origin of the start-up capital was suspected, that would be a hidden danger, so from the very beginning, Jiang Hao was prepared to make everything legal.

There were not many customers in the bank, so Jiang Hao found a staff member to explain his intentions. The staff member looked at Jiang Hao, "You want a loan, but the loan needs to be mortgaged."

"Of course I know, I have collateral." Jiang Hao said.

The staff took Jiang Hao to a credit officer. The middle-aged white man looked at Jiang Hao, an Indian, and his interest immediately dropped. "Young man, what do you want?"

"I want to apply for a loan." Jiang Hao said sitting opposite the white man.

"Loan, how much do you want to borrow, and do you have suitable collateral?" the fat white man asked, twisting his fat belly.

"My land, come and calculate how much I can borrow." Jiang Hao said, taking out his own land certificate from the space. These documents are issued by the state government and have legal effect.

When the fat white man heard this, he immediately became interested, "Let me take a look." He took the document and read it again, "Can you provide proof of identity to prove that these lands belong to you."

"Of course no problem." Jiang Hao took out his driver's license and social security card and showed them to the other party.

The land was transferred to him after his parents died, and the legality was completely fine.

The fat white man immediately counted, and after a while he said to Jiang Hao: "For 300 acres of farm land, I can give you a loan of 150,000 US dollars. You are going to loan for several years. The annual interest rate is 4.5%, 4.75% for 3 years, and 4.75% for 5 years. It's 4.95 percent."

Jiang Hao shook his head immediately, "It's too little. According to the current land price in Washington State, an acre is worth 2,500 US dollars, and his value is 750,000 US dollars, but you only loan 150,000. It's too little."

The fat man spread his hands, "This is a mortgage. It is impossible for the bank to calculate it for you based on the land price. Besides, what you said is the price of other private land. You are land in a reserved area. You have to understand."

The fat man didn't go on, but he expressed his meaning. The land in the reserved area is even less valuable.

Jiang Hao was unmoved, "I know that the government has always wanted to buy the land from the Indians. Isn't this a good opportunity." Jiang Hao said bluntly.

After hearing this, the fat man made a strange expression on his face. If this topic goes on, it will involve racial discrimination. The US government has been spared no effort to weaken the land of the Indians, and wants to buy the land in their hands. Then let them fully integrate into American society and completely eliminate the independence of Indians.

But these are all private things, and no one will put them on the table, let alone those politicians in the United States.

"Up to 200,000, really can't be more, no matter which bank you go to, it's impossible to exceed this number." The fat white man said.

Jiang Hao thought for a while, then nodded, "Okay, then 200,000, a three-year loan."

The fat white man went to go through the formalities, and he had full collateral. The loan was not difficult to complete. Jiang Hao sat by the side and waited for the staff to go through the formalities, but he was thinking depressingly, even if he could transform into a werewolf, he was still a bunch of poor people. Every time I transform, I have to tear a set of clothes, and finally I can't bear to wear the top.

Looking at those vampires, which ones are not rich and live a luxurious life, the car of the Cullen family in the movie is the best among all the students in the town, Edward takes Bella to travel, as a private jet, just You can see how rich you are.

There is no way, these vampires live a long time, and they can make a fortune by buying some antiques for hundreds of years, and then use this money to invest in promising companies, and grow together with them, how could they not have money.

As for werewolves, their life expectancy is similar to or even shorter than that of normal human beings, and their brains are not sharp. They used to hunt and farm, but now they can't keep up with society. They are romantic with women, and at most they run around in the mountains with a girl shirtless.

These days, being rich is the kingly way, and even supernatural abilities can't stand up to being poor.

With this start-up capital, Jiang Hao is confident that he will be able to earn more money in a short time, a mere $200,000, and he will never put it in his eyes.

It took two hours for Jiang Hao to complete the business. His 300 acres of land was mortgaged. After carefully reviewing the procedures, it was completely a formal bank mortgage contract. The current balance in his bank account is two hundred and eighty-three cents.

Jiang Hao immediately took out 50,000 U.S. dollars and put it on his body, earning space in a place where no one was around.

After leaving the bank, it was already noon, and Jacob was already impatient with waiting, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner, we still have things to do in the afternoon."

"do what?"

"a lot of."

The two had lunch at a fast food restaurant. Jacob ate a hamburger and two fried beef. Young people have a good appetite.

After the meal, Jiang Hao took Jacob to the business department of the certificate company in Olympia City. Jiang Hao was communicating with the staff. Jacob knew nothing about these, and sat on the sofa next to him with a brochure. Flipping through the pages to pass the time.

"Sir, do you want to open an account?"

"Yes, what documents do you need?"

"ID card, bank card, sign a risk responsibility letter, online entrustment transaction letter, and then set a password of your own, and I will handle the shareholder card for you."

After getting a set of things, Jiang Hao got the trading card, and then he can trade stocks. As long as he has a computer and the Internet, he can operate by downloading a trading software, which is very convenient.

It doesn't matter if you don't have a computer, and you can trade on the phone.

Holding the trading card, Jiang Hao transferred all the remaining 150,000 US dollars in the bank card.

It's late summer 2003,

Although Jiang Hao couldn't remember all the stock details, he had read the original Twilight Saga and knew that the timeline of the story should start in the late summer of 2003. The stock market and various business developments.

With the memory of the future stock market, it is difficult not to make money.

There is a saying that a pig can fly by standing on the air vent. What Jiang Hao wants to say is that the traveler is ten thousand times stronger than the pig.
