When Li Baolong returned home, he saw that Sister Honghong had cleaned every room spotlessly, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Having a woman in the house makes all the difference." As dusk fell, Li Baolong began his meditation practice as usual. An hour later, he lay on the bed and sorted out his thoughts.
Just then, the phone rang. It was Manager Xu from the real estate company. Manager Xu said on the other end of the line, "Mr. Li, the landlord has agreed to sell the house. Let's schedule a time tomorrow morning to complete the transfer procedures. Everything is ready." Li Baolong thought for a moment and replied, "Tomorrow afternoon, I have something to do in the morning."
The next morning, Li Baolong rushed to the Jin Guo Stock Exchange. Xishan Coal Industry's stock price continued to rise to its daily limit as soon as trading opened, everything proceeding according to Li Baolong's plan. He methodically sold a portion of his shares, dividing 100 million shares into five sales, with little fluctuation in market buying. Near the midday close, he successfully sold another 50 million shares. Li Baolong checked his account; he still had 300 million shares left. He thought to himself that if he sold them all in the next two days, he would have 550 million in his account. With that, venturing into Hong Kong wouldn't be impossible. He felt full of confidence, as if a vast world of wealth was beckoning him.
After the market closed at noon, Li Baolong went straight to Sister Honghong's house. Sister Honghong had just finished eating, her makeup was done, and she was about to go out. Seeing Li Baolong arrive, Sister Honghong joked, "Brother Baolong, you came all this way in the middle of the day, did you miss me again?" Li Baolong replied with a smile, "What am I missing, Sister Honghong? Take your ID card and come with me, I've picked out a house for you."
The two then sped off to the real estate company. Upon arrival, Manager Xu spotted Li Baolong and immediately greeted him warmly, "Mr. Li, the landlord has arrived. Please come to the office with me to sign the contract."
Li Baolong and Honghong entered the office and were astonished to find that the landlord was none other than Brother Zhang, an old acquaintance of Honghong's. Brother Zhang helplessly recounted his predicament to Honghong: "I lost a lot of money trading wheat futures last year. I was hoping to double my money this year, but I've only gotten deeper and deeper into debt. I had no choice but to sell this new house to pay off my debts. My wife has also divorced me. I plan to leave this city and start over in Shanghai, so I've sold everything I can and I'm leaving in a few days."
After hearing about Zhang Ge's experiences over the past year, Honghong and Li Baolong couldn't help but sigh with regret. Li Baolong knew that Zhang Ge was their mentor in the stock and futures industry, yet he had ended up like this. Honghong didn't hesitate much and readily signed the contract, while Li Baolong turned and went to his Santana to withdraw one million yuan in cash.
Looking at them, Brother Zhang said earnestly, "The stock and futures business is extremely risky, and there are many insider trading schemes involved. You must be very careful in the future." Li Baolong quickly nodded his thanks. By the time they finished all the formalities at the real estate bureau, it was already getting late. Li Baolong and Honghong thoughtfully treated Brother Zhang to a meal, as a farewell gesture. Brother Zhang was deeply moved, as he was now heavily in debt, all his friends had left him, and even his girlfriend—Bai Fei's cousin—had left him. Now he could only seek a living at a relative's company in Shanghai. Li Baolong kept comforting Brother Zhang, saying that after going through these hardships, he would surely have a turn of good fortune and achieve great success in the future.
When Li Baolong and Honghong returned home, they looked at each other and Honghong broke the silence first: "Brother Baolong, you have to tell me the truth. How much did you make from stocks this year? You spent a million to buy a house today without even blinking an eye."
Li Baolong smiled slightly and said, "Sister Honghong, you have been my guide on the road of life and have always helped me grow. Naturally, I also want to help you take your career to the next level. Consider this house as money you earned from stock trading. In addition, a shop of more than 1,000 square meters will also be yours tomorrow. You can use it when you start your company in the future."
Hearing this, Honghong felt a surge of emotion, and her eyes welled up with tears. Unable to contain her feelings, she threw herself into Li Baolong's arms, instantly shedding her usual assertiveness and becoming a completely submissive woman. The atmosphere between them gradually warmed up, and as their feelings deepened, they engaged in some intimate interactions. After a deep conversation, Honghong developed a profound emotional dependence on Li Baolong, as if she didn't want to be separated from him for even a moment.
For the past two days, Li Baolong had been staying at Jinguo Securities. He kept a close eye on the stock market, selling off some stocks whenever the opportunity arose. In this way, on the last trading day before the weekend, he successfully sold over 300 million yuan worth of stocks, achieving a book value of 580 million yuan, perfectly meeting his target. Li Baolong knew that the stock would most likely hit its daily limit again next Monday, but selling then would be difficult, as the price would have already increased fivefold.
Having finished his business, Li Baolong strode out of the stock exchange, feeling refreshed. He decided to treat himself well tonight, so he bought a case of red wine and a lot of food, heading straight to Jiang Xiaomei's place. Jiang Xiaomei was an excellent cook; besides being a whiz in the kitchen, her massage skills were superb. She was truly a rare and wonderful wife, though her temper was a bit fiery, requiring a strong man to tame her.
The two enjoyed a warm and romantic dinner together. After dinner, Jiang Xiaomei offered to bathe and massage Li Baolong. Having spent the last two days monitoring stocks at the exchange, Li Baolong was exhausted and needed to relax. Jiang Xiaomei's massage techniques were perfect, each touch just right, making Li Baolong groan with pleasure. He couldn't have been happier. Soon, the atmosphere in the room became intimate, and unable to contain their emotions, they engaged in a passionate encounter. In this gentle embrace, Li Baolong fully savored this moment of pleasure and relaxation.
