Returning to 1990: I Rely on Entrepreneurship to Get Rich

Renowned economist Ma Yunfei is reborn to the year 1990. To his surprise, he finds himself with a beautiful wife and an obedient daughter. He vows to become the world's richest man and create a...

Chapter 312 Car Crash Suicide

The team leader of the proprietary trading desk was a PhD who wore thick glasses and had previously served as the vice president of an investment company abroad.

He muttered to himself, "Didn't you repeatedly say that investments exceeding ten million must be approved by you?"

Manager Wang, with his sharp ears, heard this and realized that he did indeed have such a rule. He softened his tone and instructed, "From now on, you must follow Xiao Ma's pace and be quick and observant."

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Little Ma is buying up shares at the daily limit down price!"

Manager Wang frantically shouted, "You all need to hurry up and buy in with all the remaining funds!"

At 10:00 AM, the stock rebounded from its limit-down price and slowly rose, eventually hitting its limit-up price at 2:30 PM.

Just five minutes before 3 p.m., Ma Yunfei decisively sold all his shares in the stock.

Without saying a word, the three people in charge of proprietary trading also quickly cleared out their shares. After calculating the accounts, they found that they were still at a loss of two points.

After the market closed, Manager Wang said dejectedly, "That Xiao Ma is really amazing. He made 20% in just two trades, but we lost two points by following his lead."

Ma Yunfei just wanted to mess with Manager Wang to get revenge.

Ma Yunfei shut down his computer. He decided to go back to his hometown and come back to speculate on that stock that had increased fivefold in three months.

Ma Yunfei hummed a little tune as he walked down from the second floor. As soon as he entered the lobby on the first floor, he saw a young woman in her twenties wailing loudly.

It's obvious without even asking that this girl must have lost a lot of money in the stock market.

Suddenly, the girl rushed out of the securities brokerage office as if she had gone mad.

Ma Yunfei sensed something was wrong and quickly followed.

Just then, a large truck sped across the road.

The girl ran towards the truck; clearly, she intended to commit suicide by crashing into it.

Ma Yunfei rushed over, grabbed the girl's clothes, and pulled her back forcefully.

The girl struggled and yelled, "Leave me alone, let me die!"

The truck sped past like a gust of wind, kicking up clouds of dust behind it.

Ma Yunfei pulled the girl onto the sidewalk and said, "If you die, do you think you can win back the money you've lost?"

“I…I’ve lost all of my parents’ life savings, and even my grandparents’ money for their funerals. Now I have no face to see my parents and grandparents. Let me die, and it will all be over.”

Ma Yunfei asked, "How much money did you lose?"

The girl, her eyes brimming with tears, asked, "Why are you meddling in so many other people's business? Do you think you'll compensate me?"

"I'm asking you: How much money did you actually lose?"

"Three hundred thousand...three hundred thousand!"

Ma Yunfei said generously, "Let's go to the bank over there, I'll withdraw 300,000 for you."

The girl asked in surprise, "You...you really want to give me 300,000?"

"Yes, since you're willing to risk your life for 300,000, I'll consider it saving a life on your behalf."

For Ma Yunfei, 300,000 yuan is indeed a piece of cake. Now, he has more than 80 million yuan in his stock account.

Just then, a large crowd gathered around.

Manager Wang from the securities brokerage was also in the crowd. He silently watched the scene and thought to himself: This Xiao Ma seems to be a playboy. He wants to use 300,000 yuan to buy the girl's heart first, and then take her body!

Just then, someone in the crowd voiced a doubt: "Young man, although you saved the girl, you can't deceive others."

Ma Yunfei asked, puzzled, "How did I deceive anyone?"

"You said you'd give the girl 300,000 yuan, isn't that a lie?"

Ma Yunfei patted his chest and said, "I didn't lie to her. I told her to come with me to the bank and withdraw 300,000 yuan right away."

"Young man, are you a millionaire?"

Ma Yunfei humbly said, "I can't be considered a rich man. I just made some money from stock trading. When I saw that this girl was going to commit suicide, I couldn't bear it and wanted to help her."

An old woman clicked her tongue and said, "You're obviously no good. I'm telling you, you're trying to take advantage of someone in distress. You said you'd give them 300,000 yuan, but I think you're trying to trick them into becoming your wife."

Another old man said angrily, "This kid said he would give the girl 300,000 yuan. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. He must be up to a big conspiracy. I think we should send this kid to the police station for questioning."

Someone suggested, "Go to the securities brokerage and call the police immediately to handle the situation."

Someone ran into the securities brokerage.

Ma Yunfei felt very wronged. He clearly wanted to help this girl, but he was misunderstood by so many people.

He was starting to have second thoughts and said, "Since no one believes me, then forget it."

After saying that, he glanced at the girl and said, "If you trust me, come to the second floor of the business department tomorrow. I keep my word."

After saying that, Ma Yunfei prepared to slip away, not wanting to cause any trouble.

I had only taken two steps when the old lady stopped me.

"Hmph! Just as I guessed, you think you can escape now that your schemes have been exposed? No way!"

The old man rushed over and grabbed Ma Yunfei's other arm.

Ma Yunfei said, half-laughing and half-crying, "I don't want to run away, I just don't want to cause trouble."

As they were talking, a police car pulled up, and two police officers got out.

The old lady hurriedly told the police: "A young woman wanted to commit suicide, and this guy stopped her, saying he would give her 300,000 yuan. We think that this guy must have his eye on the young woman and set a trap to abduct her, so we called the police. You have to arrest this guy and take him to the police station for questioning."

The old man added fuel to the fire, saying, "When this kid heard we called the police, he tried to run away. Think about it, if he had nothing to hide, would he be afraid of the police?"

Ma Yunfei kept his head down and didn't say a word.

The police officer asked, "What exactly happened?"

Ma Yunfei recounted how he had stopped the girl who was contemplating suicide and offered her 300,000 yuan. Finally, he sincerely stated, "How could I possibly abduct a young woman in broad daylight? It's impossible. But this old lady and old man insist on framing me."

The police officer said, "You and the girl both need to come to the police station. We need to understand the situation in detail."

Ma Yunfei and the girl got into the police car.

At the police station, Ma Yunfei recounted the events once again, and the girl's account was exactly the same as Ma Yunfei's.

The police officer asked Ma Yunfei curiously, "What do you do? Are you very rich?"

“I used to run a business and made some money. In the last six months, I started investing in stocks and I’ve been quite lucky. I’ve made a lot of money.”

The police immediately called the securities brokerage and, after questioning, learned that Ma Yunfei had over 80 million yuan in stock trading funds.

With Ma Yunfei's assets, giving the girl 300,000 yuan would be a piece of cake.

The police released Ma Yunfei and the girl.
