Chapter 65 Everyone Invests in Stocks

Li Feng looked at Zhao Xinyue's red face, listened to the deafening noise outside the window, and looked at the red numbers jumping on the computer monitor.

He felt that his brain had lost control for a moment, and he involuntarily rushed towards everyone's expectations, joining the path of blind obedience, disregarding any logic at all.

This feeling hasn't come for a long time. This feeling often came to me when I was a new stock investor. Whenever this feeling came, my capital account would face huge adjustments.

This is the intuition of veteran stock investors.

Li Feng felt a surge of fear and said hurriedly, "Xinyue, Menghan, you two stay here and watch the market. I'm going to go for a walk."

As he spoke, Li Feng forced himself to walk out of the trading room of Hengtong Finance, away from the street of wealth of finance and securities, and took a bus, wandering around quietly.

Before I knew it, I was back at the B City People's Hospital.

Here, patients come and go, pedestrians are bustling about, and everything is busy. It seems that they are far away from the stock market, and Li Feng's heart slowly calms down.

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

Li Feng's stomach suddenly growled.

He checked his phone and saw that it was already past 12 o'clock. After thinking about it, he ran straight to the spicy hot pot restaurant for the brother and sister.

Boss Hu's spicy hot pot restaurant is delicious and affordable. It is considered a famous snack bar in the neighborhood. Li Feng and Zhao Xinyue often come here to eat.

"Boss Hu, it's noon, why are you closing the door if you're not going to open for business?" Li Feng saw Hu Jianming locking the door with a U-shaped lock from a distance.

Hearing this, Hu Jianming turned around and said with a smile, "Hey, Brother Li, I'm quitting. This is too tiring. I work so hard all year long, and only make a few hundred thousand."

"Changed career?"

"Hush," Hu Jianmin whispered, "I'm planning to become a professional stock trader. Brother Li, let me tell you something. In the past two months, I invested 50,000 yuan, and it doubled to 100,000 yuan in the blink of an eye. It's much faster than running a restaurant. Did you know? It's a bull market right now. I heard that the stock index will hit 10,000 points, or at least break 6,000 points. I'm not greedy. I'll stop once it breaks 6,000 points..."

"Brother Li, have you tried cooking? If not, I'll teach you. I just found a master who's amazing..."

"You also trade stocks?"

Li Feng stopped walking, unconsciously, and asked, "Does your wife agree with you investing in stocks? Be careful, you will lose money, or your wife will make you kneel on the washboard."

Hu Jianming locked the door, chuckled, and said, "Why not? If I succeed, I can make spicy hot pot for her for the rest of her life..."

Suddenly, he remembered something and pointed at his phone and said, "Oh, Brother Li, excuse me, I have to leave quickly. It's almost one o'clock and the market is about to open!"

After saying that, he hurriedly ran to the side of the road, pushed the trolley and was about to leave.

Li Feng thought about it, stopped him, and advised: "Old Hu, I really don't recommend you to trade stocks at this point..."

"Oh, time is urgent, please stop me. Can't you see the market is about to open..." Hu Jianming was anxious. He swung the handlebars, dodged Li Feng, and disappeared in a flash.

Faintly, a few complaints were heard from afar.

Li Feng shook his head and walked over to the knife-cut noodle shop next door. He ordered a bowl of noodles and had just taken two bites when he heard diners at four or five tables around him looking at their phones and praising the stock market. Some were eager to try their luck, while others were showing off their profits...

The boss seemed to be speculating in stocks as well. He cooked noodles while chatting with the diners. Sometimes he was talking about how the market broke through 5,000 points today, and whether it would break through 6,000 points or 10,000 points in the future; sometimes he was talking about today's hot topics.

The diners enjoyed their meal and talked happily, and even those who did not trade stocks listened with great interest.

Only Li Feng said nothing, concentrating on eating, looking a little out of place.

"Hey, buddy, don't you trade stocks?" asked a young man in his twenties, shaking his cell phone.

"Well..." Li Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll trade at 2000 points, but not at 5000 points. It's a bit high and not worth it."

"You don't understand this?" the young man boasted.

"This index is like a snowball, growing bigger and faster. Furthermore, every bull market will surpass the peak of the previous one. This time, it will 100% break 6124 points. It's currently at 5000 points, so that's a 1000-point fluctuation. Even if you don't invest in stocks, you can still make a net profit by buying an index fund!"

"In my opinion, you should buy East Fortune. Do you know East Fortune? It's the leading internet brokerage. It started with Tiantian Fund Network and acquired Tibet Securities a few months ago. This combination of online and offline is about to take off. If you buy it, I absolutely guarantee that you will only make money and not lose money."

The young man was beaming with joy as he spoke of this.

Li Feng nodded and did not refute.

It seems that the young man should be a new stock investor. He caught the bull market and should have made money.

In this case, no matter what you say, he will not change his mind. It is like a gambler who enters a casino for the first time and makes money by luck. He will definitely continue to gamble and think that he made money by relying on his skills, not luck.

Li Feng stopped talking. The young man thought he had found a soulmate, so he opened up the conversation and continued:

"You know what? I just invested 20,000 yuan last month, and hey, I made 10,000 yuan this month, which is equivalent to my three-month salary!"

"Do you know about compound interest? As long as I continue to follow my operating model and keep rolling it out, I've calculated that by the end of the year, my principal can at least double to 100,000 yuan. Alas, it's a pity that my principal is too small. Even if it doubles tenfold, it's only 200,000 yuan. I'm thinking of allocating some funds and adding some leverage. Several of my stock friends are doing this and they've all made a fortune! I heard that Hengtong Finance offers very high leverage, up to ten times. I'm going to check it out."

Having said that, the young man stood up and was about to leave.

Upon hearing this, Li Feng pulled him and said:

"I suggest you use some spare money to invest in stocks, and don't use margin trading. That's borrowing money, and you have to pay it back. Newbies in the stock market should never use margin trading."

The young man was unhappy and pulled Li Feng's hand away, saying:

"Hey, you, not only don't invest in stocks yourself, but you're also blocking other people's paths to wealth? Don't stop me, can't you see I'm anxious? One second later, it could mean a limit-up, worth tens of thousands or even millions of yuan! Don't waste any time!"

The young man left complaining.

The diners around looked at Li Feng and accused him of blocking others' path to wealth.

The boss even pointed to the next door and said teasingly:

"You know what? A bull market is all about picking up money. Old Hu, who sells spicy noodles next door, sold a house to invest in stocks. I heard he made back two houses... Alas, it's a pity that I got in too late. I just made a few tens of thousands... If I had gotten in two months earlier, I would have made back not only one house, but two. Who would still be selling noodles here then? I'd just close the shop and live a carefree life..."

"real?"

"Boss, what tickets did you buy? How much did you earn? What tickets did Lao Hu next door buy?"

When the diners around heard this, they all asked what stocks he bought, and the restaurant suddenly became lively.

Only Li Feng was eating the knife-cut noodles silently. He then looked at the people around him. Everyone had a look of desire in their eyes, staring with scarlet eyes. The air was filled with the smell of money.

For a moment, Li Feng felt a little out of tune with these people, and the food became less and less appetizing, so he wanted to leave and go home.

Suddenly, Li Feng's WeChat vibrated. It turned out to be a text message from Master Zang:

"Li Feng, I heard from Xinyue that you're quite good at stock trading. Do you have any stocks to recommend? A few of us are also planning to enter the stock market, so you'd better give us some advice."

Li Feng's heart was shocked again.

What? Even Master Zang wants to trade stocks?

Everyone goes to trade stocks and buy stocks, so in the end, who will they sell the stocks to?
