"What? Nine times?" Qin Chuan looked at Han Feng in disbelief. How much confidence would it take to use nine times leverage?

"It's alright, just do as I say," Han Feng waved his hand and said.

Qin Chuan was speechless. If it weren't for Director Zheng's instructions that Han Feng was a very capable person, he would have already walked away. Not only did he not have much capital, but he also dared to try leveraged trading right away.

"Alright, then I'll just be responsible for the operation, and I won't worry about anything else."

"no problem."

The two reached an agreement.

Han Feng had just returned home when the system spoke again.

Ding: System Release Options

Option 1: Earn 3 million in this stock market operation.

Option 2: Earn 5 million in this stock market operation.

Option 3: Crafting

Han Feng was about to choose option 2, which offered more money, since he would earn more and the reward might be higher. However, when he saw the third option, Han Feng was stunned. This seemed to be a synthesis skill from before, but it had never appeared before. It turned out that it could be used for synthesis options.

Han Feng gritted his teeth and tried selecting option 3.

Ding! Option synthesis/upgrade in progress:

Upgrade successful: Option 1: Earn 10 million in this stock market operation. Reward: Villa No. 01, Kyoto Mansion

Option 2: Reject this option. Randomly remove one skill from the host, reduce all values ​​by 10, and reset the current level experience points to zero.

Han Feng was completely petrified when he saw the two new options.

"What kind of ridiculous system is this?!"

"Please do not insult this system, otherwise this system will shamelessly harass you."

Han Feng was speechless for a moment, then called Qin Chuan again: "Brother Qin, adjust that lever."

Qin Chuan thought to himself, "I'm still too young." After thinking it over, he decided to lower the multiplier. But before he could speak, Han Feng's voice came through the phone again, but he said through gritted teeth, "Change it to 15x." Then he hung up, leaving Qin Chuan standing there dumbfounded.

A month later, the stock market surged as expected.

Qin Chuan, the operator, was also impressed by Han Feng's vision and decisiveness. During this time, Han Feng also instructed him to sell some stocks, cash out some funds, and increase his position in another stock called Yuanhang Logistics, which, unsurprisingly, involved a 15x leverage.

As expected, the stock continued to surge, and Qin Chuan also made a profit by following Han Feng's stock picks.

Three months later, on the eve of the college entrance examination.

Han Feng's stock account assets have reached 10 million.

He asked Qin Chuan to help him clear out all his stocks and cash out, and also asked him to help register an investment company – "Maple Leaf Capital".

Upon learning this, Zheng Weimin personally called and said, "You little rascal, you've been making such a big fuss without making a sound?"

Han Feng chuckled: "Isn't this just to save up more for my future wife?"

"You little bastard, you even poached one of my people." Zheng Weimin also mentioned Qin Chuan here.

"Brother Qin is a real expert in finance, so I'll use him. You're just a deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, he's not of much use to you, is he?" Han Feng chuckled.

"Okay, come over for dinner this week. Your Uncle Zheng said he hasn't seen you in a long time."

"Okay, I'll be there on time."

Ding! The host has completed the system task. Reward: Villa No. 01, Kyoto Huafu. All relevant procedures have been completed and the villa is inside. The key has been delivered to the host's pocket.

Back home, Han Feng pushed a bank card in front of his parents.

"Dad, Mom, this is to return to you."

Mr. Han picked up the card with a puzzled look: "Return what?"

"Fifty thousand in principal, plus five million in interest," Han Feng said casually.

"Pfft—!" Mr. Han spat out a mouthful of tea. "How much?!"

Han's mother's hand trembled, and the bank card fell to the ground.

"Mom and Dad, don't make such a fuss. Your son made 10 million this time and even started a company," Han Feng said as he picked up the bank card.

"1, 10 million?" Han's father was a little slurred.

"Yes, and there's Maple Leaf Investment, which I founded. Mom and Dad, you can start enjoying your retirement now."

"Xiaofeng, you're still a student, and you're about to take the college entrance exam. How can you have time for all this?"

"It's okay, I've hired someone to manage it, and I'm sure I can get into Kyoto University."

Han Feng's parents, considering that their son had always been the top student in the school, didn't think much of it.

Little did they know that Han Feng possessed a cheat code, having acquired academic proficiency skills early on, even mastering university courses long ago.

The day of the college entrance examination arrived quickly. Han Feng stood outside the examination hall, sunlight filtering through the leaves and illuminating him, making him appear tall and composed. Three months of intensive review, coupled with the memory enhancement and academic proficiency abilities granted by the system, made him confident of passing the exam.

"Han Feng!"

A familiar voice came from behind him. Han Feng turned around and saw Wang Hao jogging over, beads of sweat still on his forehead.

"Hey kid, how come you're still so calm?" Wang Hao panted, patting Han Feng's shoulder. "I was so nervous last night I almost couldn't sleep!"

Han Feng smiled and said, "Aren't you usually pretty good at mock exams?"

"How can that be the same? This is the college entrance exam!" Wang Hao exaggeratedly clutched his chest. "A turning point in my life!"

Han Feng didn't say much, but took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to him: "Have something sweet to relieve your tension."

Wang Hao was taken aback for a moment, then grinned and said, "You're the most reliable one."

——

The Chinese language exam will be held at 9:00 AM.

The examination room was completely silent, except for the scratching sound of pens slicing across the exam paper.

Han Feng glanced at the essay title—"Echoes of the Times".

A slight smile played on his lips as he picked up his pen and wrote the first sentence:

"History is never a one-way street, but rather the echo of countless choices."

——

Math exam, 3:00 PM.

Wang Hao sat diagonally in front of Han Feng, scratching his head, clearly stumped by the last big question.

Han Feng had already finished writing and was leisurely checking his exam paper. Suddenly, he noticed Wang Hao secretly pulling a small piece of paper out of his pocket and glancing furtively at the proctor.

System Prompt

"Cheating detected"

Risk: Wang Hao may be disqualified from the exam.

Han Feng frowned, flicked his finger, and an eraser hit Wang Hao precisely on the back of the head.

"Ouch!" Wang Hao turned around instinctively.

The proctor immediately looked up: "Student, what's going on?"

Wang Hao froze instantly, cold sweat pouring down his face.

Han Feng raised his hand and calmly said, "Teacher, my eraser fell on the ground and accidentally bounced towards him."

The proctor glanced at the two suspiciously, but ultimately didn't pursue the matter further.

Wang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, secretly gave Han Feng a "thank you" gesture, and dared not have any more wicked thoughts.

——

The English exam was the following morning.

Just as the listening section began, a buzzing sound suddenly filled the examination room.

A bee flew in from somewhere and started scurrying around the classroom.

Several girls screamed in fright, and the proctor was also in a flurry of activity.

Han Feng sighed and reached out to grab—

"Smack!"

He caught the bee precisely, then calmly walked to the window and released the little troublemaker.

The entire room fell silent.

The proctor adjusted his glasses: "Student, you... have you practiced before?"

Han Feng smiled slightly: "I used to catch grasshoppers when I was a kid."

Wang Hao was trying so hard to suppress his laughter that his face turned red.

——

The last subject, the combined science exam.

With half an hour left in the exam, Han Feng had already checked his paper twice and was about to hand it in.

Suddenly, a commotion arose from the next examination area.

Someone has fainted!

Han Feng looked up and saw through the window several teachers surrounding a girl in the corridor. It was Chen Yuqing, the top student in their school.

The proctor frowned: "Sit still, everyone, and don't look around!"

But Han Feng had already stood up: "Teacher, I know first aid, can I go take a look?"

The proctor hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded.

Han Feng strode out and knelt down to check on Chen Yuqing's condition—her face was pale and her pulse was weak, clearly indicating that she had fainted due to low blood sugar and excessive tension.

He took a piece of chocolate out of his pocket (yes, he brought another one), broke it open and put it in her mouth, while gently pressing several acupoints on her wrist with his fingers.

Ten seconds later, Chen Yuqing slowly opened her eyes and weakly said, "Th-thank you..."

Han Feng smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, you're very well prepared."

——

Exams over, at the school gate.

Wang Hao grabbed Han Feng's shoulder and exclaimed excitedly, "Finally free! Let's go get some barbecue!"

Just as Han Feng was about to agree, his phone suddenly vibrated.

Looking at the unfamiliar number on his phone, Han Feng answered: "Hello."

A somewhat familiar voice said, "Xiao Han, you should have finished your exams, right?"

"Chief Lin!" Han Feng suddenly remembered something and lowered his voice.

"You still remember this old man?" Lin Zhengguo laughed heartily.
