Chapter 638: It’s so cold, you’ll freeze to death without wearing cotton
Shao Feng was puzzled: "Who are you talking to?"
He had just finished speaking when he heard the sound of a submachine gun coming from the car radio: "Man, they are stupid, but the French are not to blame! There are few pure French people here!"
Shao Feng was stunned, and pointed at the radio and asked Xiao Peng, "How come 'Submachine Gun''s girlfriend's car is connected to your car radio?"
Xiao Peng curled his lips and said, "Do you really think that's his girlfriend's car? 'Submachine Gun' is a damn rich man. Do you really think a financial expert from a short-selling institution would let him be so poor? He made 140% in a week by shorting Europ Taxi Company! These days, talented people can get ahead anywhere! He came here just for the excitement."
"Isn't this the same as you?" Shao Feng curled his lips and said, "How did he make money so quickly?"
"I know what he does, but he doesn't know my identity. Don't let him know." Xiao Peng was stunned. "By the way, don't you know what shorting means? Don't you usually invest?"
Shao Feng shook his head: "I am the same as you in this respect. I believe in my own judgment and make money with my own hands."
Xiao Peng explained, "The so-called 'short selling'... let's put it this way. For example, let's say your company's stock price is currently 20 yuan per share. I believe your stock will definitely fall, so I borrow 1,000 shares from you and sell them for 20,000 yuan. At the time we decide, your stock price falls to 10 yuan, and I can return you 1,000 shares for only 10,000 yuan, making me a profit of 10,000 yuan. Of course, if your stock price rises by then, say to 30,000 yuan, it will cost me 30,000 yuan to return you 1,000 shares, and I will lose 10,000 yuan. Europka Car Rental's stock price plummeted, and retail investors lined up to jump off rooftops. As a result, those who play with capital would laugh in their dreams about the profits they made. Why are those who play with finance so rich? They are all masters of 'borrowing chickens to lay eggs'! We are not in the same world as these people!"
"What are you talking about? I protest! I don't understand!" The sound of a 'submachine gun' came from the phone.
Xiao Peng said: "I'm praising you!"
"What are you praising me for?" 'Submachine Gun' said cheerfully, "Are you praising me for being smart and intelligent?"
After hearing this, Xiao Peng said angrily: "I was just telling my friend: French men will not fall for such childish tricks!"
"Of course!" said 'Submachine Gun' proudly.
Xiao Peng's next words put an end to his laughter: "If they were French men, they would have sold all these women long ago. 'Use and throw away' is the consistent characteristic of French men. It's a historical tradition!"
What Xiao Peng said is not nonsense. It is said that French men respect women's romance. If Xiao Peng were to say, the men here are definitely "romantic", but their behavior is only for the consideration of their lower body. When something really happens, there is never any talk of "respecting women".
During World War II, France supposedly resisted Germany for ten months. In reality, the Germans attacked France from May 10, 1940, until they occupied Paris on June 14, and surrendered on June 18. France, then known for possessing the "world's best army," remains a laughingstock worldwide today. Some say they couldn't even match the "Pavlov Building."
(PS: The Pavlov Building is a patriotic educational site in Volgograd, Russia, located on the banks of the Volga River. Originally a four-story building, only half of its walls remain, but it has found its way into Russian textbooks. During the Battle of Stalingrad, when Volgograd was still known as Stalingrad, Sergeant Pavlov led over twenty soldiers and dozens of civilians who refused to evacuate, holding out here until the final stage of the counterattack. They held out for fifty-eight days against the German encirclement before ultimately achieving victory. The specific situation is somewhat similar to the defense of the tree fort in the TV series "My Captain, My Regiment.")
The French surrender was certainly a men's affair, but it was the French women who were "liquidated" after the war. Those French women who slept with French soldiers for their own service were all in trouble. However, those French men who actually served the Nazis and helped them capture Jews were basically fine.
French men also have a glorious tradition of 'selling women'.
Who is the most famous French woman in history? Of course, it's Joan of Arc!
The Louvre houses a famous painting, "Joan of Arc at the Coronation of Charles VII" by Ingres. Look at that painting: Joan of Arc, dressed in armor and holding a banner, takes center stage. King Charles VII of France kneels before her in adoration. Many who have seen this painting are struck by how much the French respect women. The king kneels before a peasant.
Of course, the reality is quite different.
Joan of Arc, an illiterate farm girl, led the French people step by step to rise up against the British. She single-handedly saved France from the brink of destruction and supported the coronation of Charles VII. However, she was captured by the Burgundians and sold to the British. She was labeled a "witch" and burned alive.
The Burgundian who sold her to the British was French, and Charles VII, who came to power with the help of Joan of Arc, had no intention of saving her at all. After all, women are used and thrown away - this is the consistent style of French men!
Xiao Peng used the Joan of Arc incident to taunt the "Submachine Gun." He tried to refute him several times, but couldn't find the words. Finally, he said bitterly, "Attila, thinking that way only shows you're poor. When you're rich, you'll find that relationships in the world are simply about exploiting and being exploited. Many things in the world are choices made after weighing the pros and cons. Whether it's the fate of women after World War II or Joan of Arc, they were all based on the interests of the powerful at the time! Why are we working together? Isn't it because you can bring me happiness? If you don't change your mindset, you'll never become rich!"
"Yes, yes, you are right!" Xiao Peng nodded in agreement.
Shao Feng covered his mouth and laughed secretly.
'Submachine Gun' heard Shao Feng's laughter: "Who's laughing? Did I say something wrong?"
Xiao Peng hurriedly said, "No, no, no, you're right! Okay, let's talk on the way. We're about to start!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Peng saw a girl wearing only high heels and a bikini, swaying her hips from the middle of the two rows of cars to the front of the convoy. The two rows of cars erupted in boos, and even Xiao Peng couldn't help but lean over and whistle loudly.
"It's cold and you don't wear cotton. You'll freeze to death!" Shao Feng said this, but his eyes didn't turn away: "When does it start?"
At this moment, the girl took off her bikini top and threw it into the sky. The moment the bikini hit the ground, all the cars rushed out together!
