A month later, the merchant returned, this time offering an exorbitant price of 1,000 per hen to buy them.
But this time the farmer was in trouble because all the hens he raised had already been sold to merchants, and he had no extra hens to sell.
However, having already tasted success in the previous two transactions, the farmer decided to buy 100 chickens from the town's farm at a price of 800 each.
The teacher stopped there and then asked all the students a question.
"What's the problem?"
The teacher's exact words were, "The story is coming to an end here. Can you guess what the possible endings will be?"
At that moment, our entire class could only think of one scenario.
"Is that businessman in cahoots with the farm owner?"
"That's right! But the teacher told us there's another possibility."
"There's more to the story? What is it?"
"A few months later, the merchant came again, but he said that the market was not good recently and he could only buy hens for 50 yuan each."
However, the villagers refused to accept the price reduction and continued to wait...
So the merchants and farm owners went to other mountains to continue buying and selling hens...
After waiting for a very long time, they finally came back. This time, I bought all the hens for 20 yuan each…
At this point, Lu Yi seemed to be thinking, "It sounds a bit like the story we just heard."
Ye Ran nodded. "In the end, it's just a variety of ways for businessmen to make money."
It's like harvesting chives. You plant the chives, wait for them to grow a little, and then harvest them. The key to harvesting chives is to fatten them up first, and then kill them.
The stock market is like a giant breeding ground for韭菜 (a metaphor for easily exploited investors). First, it lures you in with huge potential profits, then once you've exhausted all your assets, it profits by exploiting the price difference of stocks you bought from its partners.
After listening, Lu Yi was silent for a moment, then sighed, "This kind of thing will never stop."
Ye Ran nodded in agreement, "Indeed, and I believe that the stock market will grow bigger and bigger, and soon, China will also have a stock market like this."
Because, for the economy to develop, the stock market is indeed indispensable.
Lu Yi pondered for a moment, "However, our side won't develop into something like this."
"Why?"
"Because didn't we know from the beginning that America is a country manipulated by capital, where the rich can do anything?"
Capitalists only think about money, and they will do anything for money.
But we are different. We live in a society governed by the rule of law, and the government won't let rich people run rampant.
At this point, Ye Ran laughed, "That's true, I was overthinking it."
Lu Yi pulled her into his arms. "How can you say you're overthinking it? This is what you do, of course you have to think things through."
"Honey, I'm so proud of you! You've figured out so much in just one afternoon, that's amazing!"
Ye Ran smiled and said, "It's just that the teacher taught me before. Indeed, going to university was a very correct choice."
As the two men were talking, the car suddenly came to a slow stop. They looked over in confusion and saw someone blocking their way...
