Shen Fang packed his luggage quickly, had breakfast, and then flew to Shenzhen with Shen Kun.

The two arrived in Shenzhen at 10:50 a.m. and checked into a hotel near the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

Settle your luggage.

Shen Fang looked at Shen Kun.

"Go contact the trader. Arrange to meet at the tea restaurant downstairs."

Shen Kun nodded and made a phone call. Shen Fang then went with Shen Kun to the Hong Kong-style tea restaurant downstairs.

Shen Fang looked around and ordered a plate of scrambled eggs with beef rice, a milk tea, a fish, a pork rib, and a vegetable dish.

Shen Kun ordered stir-fried beef noodles and a beer.

The two began to eat.

At this moment, a man in his thirties, dressed in a suit and tie and impeccably groomed, walked into the tea restaurant. He glanced around the restaurant, spotted Shen Kun, and walked straight past him.

Shen Kun waved to the person who had arrived.

"Waiter, please take our order."

Shen Kun explained.

"This is my third maternal uncle, Shen Fang. And this is Wang Haibo, who is also from Maoming. He lives not far from our village. He's a fellow villager."

Shen Fang nodded as he ate his beef rice.

"Make it whatever you like, order whatever you want to eat."

Wang Haibo smiled as he looked at the waiter.

"Please give me a bowl of beef brisket noodles, thank you."

A short while later, the waiter brought the noodles over.

Wang Haibo first wiped his chopsticks with a tissue, then slowly ate his beef brisket noodles without making a sound.

Shen Kun ate quickly, took a sip of beer, and let out a burp.

"Third Uncle, Brother Bo is a veteran trader who has worked in Shenzhen for many years. He was introduced by Brother Ci. They are fellow apprentices. He is steady, bold, and meticulous. Most importantly, Brother Bo has never made any illegal moves. His greatest strength is that he is very tight-lipped."

Shen Fang didn't say anything and continued eating his beef rice. Wang Haibo, seeing that Shen Fang didn't say anything, also continued eating his beef brisket noodles.

Ten minutes later, Shen Fang finished his beef brisket rice, and Wang Haibo finished his noodles.

Shen Fang picked up the milk tea beside him and took a sip. He looked at Wang Haibo, who was wiping his mouth, and nodded to himself. This man had many advantages. He didn't talk much, was calm and patient, and was also his junior apprentice in the Hong Kong stock trader's business.

Shen Fang took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Shen Kun, then another to Wang Haibo.

I lit a cigarette, took a puff, and realized that a cigarette after a meal is better than being a god.

Shen Fang looked at Wang Haibo with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

"In today's environment, it's truly remarkable that Brother Bo, as a manager at the Shenzhen Stock Exchange's bond headquarters, has managed to maintain his integrity and refrain from illegal operations. Don't you want to earn more?"

Wang Haibo adjusted his glasses and smiled.

“Mr. Shen, Shi Hailun is currently in a power struggle with the higher-ups. If you reach out now, you'll just be asking to get arrested. I have a family and children. No matter how much money I make, if I lose my life, I'll have nothing left.”

Shen Fang narrowed his eyes: "Do you think the rentier class will lose this time?"

Wang Haibo smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, isn't that what you think too? Let's not beat around the bush. When Shen Kun came to me, the answer was already obvious. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to me."

Shen Fang glanced at Shen Kun, then at Wang Haibo.

The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned.

"clever."

"President Shen, this is a major trend. Currently, the domestic securities market is rife with shady dealings, and the government will definitely have to crack down on it. Otherwise, the domestic stock market will be a joke, with the rent-seeking class completely controlling the financial market. To be honest, I am already quite shocked that this situation has developed to this point."

Shen Fang smiled and asked, "Brother Bo, where do you think the root of this problem lies?"

Wang Haibo stared at Shen Fang and pointed to the north.

"In Beijing."

Shen Fang laughed heartily.

“That’s right, I didn’t expect Brother Bo to share the same view on this issue as me.”

Shen Kun looked completely bewildered.

"Third Uncle, what kind of riddles are you two playing? We're here to discuss stock investments."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to discuss things with Brother Bo. What's your opinion on this year's market?"

Wang Haibo thought for a moment and said, "President Shen, to be honest, entering the game now is about 50/50 in terms of risk and reward. It all depends on when this farce ends. If it were me, I wouldn't recommend you enter now. It would be better to wait until the curtain falls before entering."

Shen Fang shook his head: "Now is a good time to buy at the bottom. We can't waste this opportunity. Brother Bo, I brought a total of 200 million this time. 100 million is for long-term investment and the other 100 million is for short-term trading. I don't know if you can handle this amount of money."

Wang Haibo stared at Shen Fang in astonishment. To be honest, he had never seen anyone in his life who could afford to invest so much money in stocks.

Wang Haibo looked around.

"Mr. Shen, shall we find a place to talk this over calmly?"

Shen Fang nodded and led Wang Haibo back to the hotel, where Shen Kun paid the bill.

Inside the sofa in the room.

Shen Fang slumped onto the sofa and handed Wang Haibo a bottle of Wahaha.

Wang Haibo thanked him.

"President Shen, I definitely can't handle such a large amount of funds by myself, and my quota isn't that high."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Brother Bo, you are Brother Ci's fellow apprentice. I'm sure you also have your own team, just like Brother Ci."

Wang Haibo smiled: "Of course, Mr. Shen."

Wang Haibo got straight to the point: "If you entrust this investment to me, Mr. Shen, I will make sure it is kept extremely secret. I won't say it will be completely undetectable, but it will be impossible for most people to find out. I know that you have achieved great success in the Hong Kong stock market, and I have great respect for you."

Shen Fang grinned: "Brother Bo, what do you think of the future of the liquor industry and the pharmaceutical industry?"

"The future is bright. Alcohol is a necessity in any country, and daily consumption of necessities is enormous, especially in China, where it is practically indispensable at every meal. There are no men who don't drink alcohol. The future of the pharmaceutical industry is also limitless."

Shen Fang nodded.

"Brother Bo, how much is your annual salary now?"

"With commission, it'll be around 100,000."

"If I offered you and your team an annual salary of 500,000, would you be willing to help me, Brother Bo?"

Wang Haibo's eyelids twitched. A large water tap?

"An annual salary of 500,000???"

Shen Fang looked at Wang Haibo with a smile.

"That's right, an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, become my professional trader. How about it, Brother Bo? If you do well, your salary will double next year."

Wang Haibo suddenly felt short of breath, but he forced it down and looked calmly at Chen Fang.

"I don't know, Mr. Shen, why did you choose me?"

Shen Fang extended two fingers.

"First, you follow the rules; second, you have excellent judgment, and we basically agree; third, I've been secretly observing you during dinner. To be honest, I came here to find a suitable trader. Brother Bo, we're from the same hometown, and we also have a connection with Brother Ci, so you could say you're on my side. I'm giving you this opportunity to help me manage these 200 million yuan. Think it over and give me your answer in 30 minutes."

After saying that, Shen Fang took Shen Kun downstairs and went shopping.
