Chapter 78

Club, Ben arranged the last thing and went home from work with his bag.

At night, tramps walk out of dark alleys and roam around the streets. Their favorite dishes are the sewage cans in the back kitchen of restaurants, garbage cans in the streets, and swill buckets in hotels.

Those perishable food is the guarantee of their lives!

The road was also quiet. Except for the occasional tram, Ben was the only one leaving quickly.

Every time his car passed by, tramps would turn their heads and stare at his car, with greed and resentment in their eyes.

If it wasn't for two bodyguards in the car, Ben would never have dared to go home after dark.

The hungry tramp would rush up and overturn his car, tear him alive before the police arrived, and then snatch anything valuable from him.

"Hoo..." After that terrible block, Ben breathed his breath.

Two blocks further on is nanqile street. The people who can still live here are middle-class or powerful people. The public order is much better than other places.

It's not just a rich neighborhood, it's also a federal building, and that's why it's one of the best policed areas in Chicago.

The number of tramps on both sides of the street is becoming less and less. They wear cheap suits and keep a clean and tidy appearance.

Most of them looked haggard and lost, but there was no greed and madness of those tramps before. When looking at the passing vehicles, most of the eyes were recollection and regret.

Most of the vagrants who can stay here are once middle-class or powerful people. Bankruptcy makes them lose their houses, but the government does not drive them out of the block.

Good family education and inheritance of the quality, so that most of them even in the face of bankruptcy, but also can maintain a rational and optimistic.

William also does not want to force these people to have no way out. When the economy recovers, with knowledge and experience, they will soon be able to live a bright life. The strength of the United States needs them.

And this rule has been approved by several neighborhoods nearby. Most of these homeless people who have gone bankrupt are their former colleagues, neighbors, friends and even family members.

Although their families are not well-off now, this does not prevent them from providing them with some trivial help.

For example, staying in a safe block with a small amount of food and water, occasionally providing them with hot water for cleaning, and sleeping on a soft sofa next to a warm fireplace.

"Wait a minute." Ben is casually looking out of the window, suddenly swept a familiar figure in the corner of his eye, and quickly let the driver stop the car.

Squeak ~ ~

the screeching sound of the brakes was harsh. The wandering tramps raised their heads and looked forward to the car, thinking, "is there another lucky one?"

Rush was wearing torn trousers, the wound on his knee had just scabbed, and his suit, once worth $1000, had been torn into strips and was walking forward in a daze.

"Rush!" Ben jumped out of the car and ran toward the unkempt rush Jeff. The co pilot's bodyguard rushed to follow.

The driver opened the door, put the Chicago typewriter rack on the roof, and looked around with warning eyes, as if to say, "don't mess."

"Rush, you..." Ben looked at the former colleague and friend and couldn't imagine that rush, who was once so high spirited and valuable, would become like this.

Rush, with a funny smile, raised his hand numbly and said, "Hi, Ben."

“…… Hi, rush Ben put his arms around him and didn't mind that his suit would be stained by the dirt on his body.

"Come home with me, go." Ben pulled rush into the car: "go home."

When rush hesitated on the expensive carpet and sat on the sofa with a red complexion, Ben began to ask him where he was going after he received the hot tea from Joanna.

"You're right, Ben. I was blinded by greed. The disaster left me destitute. My work, house and car were all used to fill the vacancy.

Mary returned to England with her children. After our divorce, she took away the only savings in our family. Sobbing..."

With hot tea in his hands, rush buried his head between his legs, and his shoulders heaved, sobbing like a cold winter wind.

The temperature across the teacup was the first warmth he felt in two months.

Joanna Yi was on her husband's shoulder, her eyes glowing red, looking at the poor man, unemployed, bankrupt, once a good life collapsed in an instant.

At this time, the wife chose to divorce and leave the United States with her children.

Oh, my God, this is so unfortunate

"Rush, I think I can offer you a job." Ben thought again and again, but he still felt that he should do so.

There is no doubt about rush's talent. Before the stock market crash, the wealth he was responsible for was as high as $6 million, including some famous investors.

It's not his fault to fall into this way. Investors, economists and rich businessmen who are more famous than him have been looted by this disaster.

Not everyone has the prediction ability of boss almost becoming a demon. Even if he was aware of the crisis, he did not dare to imagine that this disaster would evolve into a global financial crisis.If it wasn't for Li Zitao, his best end now would be to be unemployed at home and live on his savings carefully.

As the disaster spread and moved on, he could only move away from here like his neighbors to live in the suburbs with poor public security, reduce expenses and strive to survive the cold winter.

"Ben." Rush raised his head excitedly and wiped his eyes hard: "are you serious?"

"Of course, would I make a joke of it?" I spread my hands and said with a smile.

"Yes, but I..." Rush's face turned red, and he didn't know how to go on thinking that he had mocked Ben as old-fashioned as his grandfather.

"Rush, I hired you because of your ability. It has nothing to do with anything else. After all, I need to be responsible for the boss." Ben looked at him sincerely.

"Thank you, thank you Ben. " Rush lowered his head and his eyes turned unnaturally red.

"I'm going to prepare the guest room. I think he needs a temporary residence, right, honey?" Joanna got up and looked at her husband gently.

"Yes, he needs to stay here for a while." Ben nodded in agreement.

Late at night, lying in the silken quilt as smooth as milk, rush gently pulled the quilt, covered his neck and then squeezed the quilt corner, looking at the ceiling for a long time, unable to sleep.

This kind of warm care, he has not experienced for a long time, so that some worry about gain and loss, the heart is even more grateful to Ben and Joanna.

Recalling the past life and tribulation, the previous feeling of heartache seems to be relieved a lot. In the memory, rush sleeps in the past.

"Rush, rush..." The call is gradually introduced into the brain.

Rush opened his eyes nervously and sat up. When he saw the clean room and felt the warmth of his body, he remembered that he was no longer living in the park.

"Rush, are you up?" Joanna's voice rang out the door.

"Yes, yes, I'll be right there." Rush's voice is a little hoarse. Last night, he was covered too hard. His body suddenly changed from extreme cold to extreme heat. He seemed to be on fire.

After getting dressed and washed, rush came to the living room. Joanna was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Ben was sitting on the sofa reading the newspaper.

"Hi, rush, come and sit down." Hearing his footsteps, Ben called back.

"What are you looking at?" Finding Ben fascinated, rush asked curiously.

"Our great president's new speech, cough." Ben cleared his throat and said in a strange tone, "America is free, great, and the Union will never interfere in market freedom in any way. Ha, what a stupid speech."

After hearing Ben's sarcasm, rush nodded in agreement: "the market has been completely in chaos and is gradually festering from the base. This is the collapse of the whole system.

what we need most is a strong external force, which can reverse the situation. Ha ha, it seems that our new president has other plans."

"Everyone knows it. Maybe the Washington team is better suited to go to the circus." This is not without irony.

"Hey, honey, I need your help." As they chatted, Joanna interrupted them.

She doesn't want to spend a "hot" morning, which should be warm and pleasant. As for work, it's time outside the family.

"Ha, call of the queen." Ben shrugged his shoulders and headed for the kitchen.

Looking at the loving Ben and Joanna, rush's eyes are full of envy, although only a short communication, Joanna still left a deep impression in his heart.

She is kind, beautiful, generous, full of the charm of a mature intellectual woman, with love and compassion, and treats him like a family member.

"It's a perfect couple." Rush thought of walking to the table in their laughter.

After breakfast, they arrived at the club in Ben's Buick, escorted by bodyguards.

"Come here, please." Ben clapped his hands, and after catching everyone's attention, pointed to rush and said, "this is the new comer, rush Jeff. Welcome."

"Welcome to join us, rush." People warmly greet each other.

"Thank you. Thank you." Rush took off his hat and bowed. Ben gave him the proper suit and hat.

"All right, keep going!" As the crowd dispersed, Ben took rush to his desk, searched for a document and handed it to him.

"This is the current trend of think tanks in the stock market, boss's requirement is to absorb more shares as far as possible." On the way, Ben has already explained the responsibilities of think tanks.

"So much?" Opening the file, rush said, somewhat surprised.

General Electric, steel, radio, standard oil, Bethlehem Steel, Sears Roebuck, at & T, Boeing, Thomas Cook, express

As a stockbroker, these names are familiar to rush. They are the favorite of the stock market, and every stock has been robbed by investors."These are the most valuable shares obtained from the think tank's analysis. The boss's order is to continue to eat and take more shares as far as possible."

On hearing Ben's words, rush said with a wry smile: "everyone wants to do this. Even now these stocks are still in hot demand, only in private circulation."

Rush is right. In the past two months, except for the small amount of shares sold by retail investors, other changes have been made in secret transactions.

For example, the stock price of UUS has dropped to $23, but at the beginning of the month, JP. Morgan also bought the shares of two minority shareholders for $80 a share.

Let's talk about at & T. Li Zitao's 3% shares are also under the scrutiny of the wood family.

It's $90 a share, 3% gives a sky high price of $18 million.

Think tanks buy from the stock market for $18, which is five times the profit if they change hands. After being rejected, the other side said that they could raise the price again.

Therefore, despite the stock market crash, valuable stock companies will not let go.

When Li Quantao got 3% of the shares in the market, he was able to take advantage of it.

"Because of this, our existence is meaningful. If it can be achieved easily, why should boss pay you 10000 dollars a year?"

When he heard Ben's jokes, rush was excited. He took a few deep breaths before recovering. Every time he thought of "10000 dollars a year," he couldn't control his little heart.

Having experienced the darkness and loss, rush knew more clearly how precious this opportunity was, and looked up at Ben's solemn nod.
