Chapter 50 I am a genius
"By the way, Butler Sean, last time I borrowed 100,000 pounds from the manor, I will transfer 500,000 pounds to the previous account. In addition to finding the most professional organization to outline plans and plans for a complete renovation of the manor, In addition to the estimate, I hope you can find someone to take care of the clothes in the room last time and keep them in a safe place. They will be useful in the near future."
"I will do as you ask, Your Highness."
Just after Barron finished talking to Butler Sean about these things, he received a call from Daisy.
Looking at Daisy's name on the phone, Barron had already guessed the purpose of the call, and couldn't help but feel a little expectant and excited.
After connecting the phone, Barron immediately heard Daisy's excited shouts from the receiver - this was really rare for her who was always calm and calm...
"F**K! Barron. How did you guess that? Or did you discover something in your research on AirGate? This is incredible!"
"Calm down, Daisy, this is not like you..."
At this time, Barron calmed down:
"Can you tell me what happened now?"
Barron could hear that Daisy took a deep breath on the phone, and then said in a somewhat calm voice:
“This morning, I saw the news from Bloomberg. AirGate PCS issued an announcement stating that due to statistical errors, their company’s financial report for the last quarter had a major error, increasing the loss by US$15 million, and due to the harsh market environment. , will reduce growth expectations for this quarter."
"Such a major mistake? I'm afraid it's not really an unintentional mistake."
"That's what they said anyway, but I'm afraid the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) will not let them go so easily. I have sent the relevant information to you via email, Barron."
"Okay, continue to pay attention, Daisy, and notify me in time if there is any news."
Just when Barron was about to hang up the phone, he heard Daisy's voice:
"Barron, did you really foresee something in advance when you decided to short AirGate? How did you do it? Why was your mood so... bland just now, as if you had expected it?"
"Daisy, I've said it a long time ago, maybe you should believe it a little more now, I'm a genius."
…
"Laura, where's Miss Bonnie?"
When Barron walked out of the study and saw Wang Wanting in the corridor on the second floor, he asked in Chinese.
Since coming to this time and space, he has been using English. When the two communicate privately, he prefers to speak Chinese. At least this will give him a sense of his previous life.
Wang Wanting took Barron's habit of talking to her in Chinese from time to time as if he was looking for opportunities to practice Chinese - but she also admitted that the other person's Chinese was indeed better than the "Mandarin" of many Chinese people. More standard, no accent at all.
"Your Highness the Duke, after Miss Bonnie took me around the manor, she went back to her room to write."
"Are you looking at these murals?"
When Barron came over, Wang Wanting was staring at the mural hanging on the wall of the corridor, so Barron asked this question.
"Yes, Your Highness the Duke, I heard from Miss Bonnie that these murals are portraits of members of the Devonhill family from past generations. When I looked at these portraits just now, I seemed to be able to feel the rich history of the entire manor and the family."
At this time, Barron and Wang Wanting were standing in the corridor, with the dome shining directly above their heads, looking at the members of the Devonshire family in front of them, as if they were experiencing time travel.
"Laura, how did you feel after visiting the manor?"
"It has a sense of history, luxury and weight, especially the works of art. I never thought that I could see Da Vinci's paintings with my own eyes, hanging in an inhabited house. Sure enough, the aristocratic heritage is not just talk."
Hearing Wang Wanting's admiration, Barron smiled faintly. At this time, they went down the stairs. Wang Wanting was one step behind Barron. Looking at the young and handsome Duke, in such a magnificent building, he looked even more like Like a prince.
"Actually, I entered Lucy Cavendish College in Cambridge. When I first came to England, I heard about the origin of the college and learned something about your family. Your Highness, it can be said that at that time, I was right. The Devonshire family were impressed.”
"Then in Chinese terms, we are still very destined."
"It's just that at that time, I never thought that one day I would have such a face-to-face conversation with members of the Devonhill family and come to this legendary manor. Maybe this is really an arrangement of fate."
…
Everyone's dinner was held in the restaurant in the north wing of the Chatsworth Manor House. The exquisite silverware on the table and the cherry-colored crystal cups could vaguely remind people of the grand banquets that had been held here.
This restaurant was first built by the sixth Duke of Devonshire. Its splendor was not inferior to that of Buckingham Palace.
When the 13-year-old Princess Victoria visited with her mother, the Duchess of Kent, the future Queen of England held her first formal dinner in this restaurant.
I have to say that this kind of story is very attractive to any woman, especially after Princess Victoria became Queen Victoria, she visited here again and still received banquets and entertainment here.
Now that the girls are sitting here eating, they can't help but imagine what it was like at that grand and luxurious dinner with the Queen present.
After dinner, Barron received a call from Daisy again.
It was now afternoon in New York time, and Daisy told Barron that in response to the announcement issued by AirGate PCS in the morning, many investors had begun preparing to initiate compensation lawsuits, and the SEC had also responded to this and would target the company's last quarter financial report and Corresponding financial issues will be investigated.
Affected by this incident, several financial companies have lowered their ratings on AirGate stock. I am afraid that after the market opens on Monday, the trend of this stock will be very exciting.
In other words, basically by now, they have been able to confirm that their short selling of AirGate this time has been successful, and the final profit will depend on how low the price of the stock will fall.
…
"Bonnie, are you still writing?"
"I asked Mr. Sean and Ms. Riley about some of the past aristocratic etiquette today, and now I'm going to sort them out. Barron, you seem to be in a good mood."
Bonnie also saw the smile on Barron's face. She closed the notebook, stood up and said to him.
"Well, I just got some good news about my recent investment."
Barron walked up to Bonnie and held her hand:
"The night is nice tonight, do you want to go out for a walk together? The scenery of the garden at night is very different from that during the day."
After Bonnie came to Chatsworth Manor last time, Barron specially asked the housekeeper Riley to specially rearrange Barron's previous bedroom. This time, Bonnie lived here.
Chatsworth Manor at night is different from the bright lights in the city. In the back garden, there are only a few lights on, making it look quiet and cold.
Stepping on the stone road, Barron felt the breeze blowing on his face, bringing a bit of coolness.
The shadows of the surrounding trees were mottled. The two walked to the center of the back garden, and the sound of gurgling water was particularly obvious in the silence.
Bonnie was wearing a long dress, her long golden hair and skirt were fluttering in the wind, and her quiet green eyes looked like a fairy in mythology under the moonlight.
At this moment, Barron couldn't help himself. He held Bonnie's hand and gently pressed it, and his arms were filled with sweet jade...
