Chapter 461: A Fight
The second-generation rich man took a sip of the coffee on the stage and said, "Isn't this normal? But I don't think this is the point you want to make, right? Because you don't seem like one of those gossipy women who would come to me to chat and complain!"
Gu Xuezhi: "To be honest, I've thought about it. Just like my wife said, the 100,000 yuan check you gave me isn't a big deal, but if I only want to rely on it to support my family for the rest of our lives, that's absolutely impossible! So I want to learn some investment skills from you, so that I can be self-reliant in the future and don't have to bother you. I just don't know what you think."
The second-generation rich man said: "Of course I'd be delighted. I'm just worried that you might be too arrogant to look down on my small business. It's rare that you'd take the initiative to learn from me, and I couldn't be happier. How about this, you come to my company and work for a few months? I'll teach you step by step and I guarantee you'll learn quickly."
Gu Xuezhi thought he had found a treasure, so he agreed immediately: "Yes, I will definitely work hard."
Gu Xuezhi turned around and told Wang Ziyao what happened. Wang Ziyao was very happy when she heard it. The small conflict between the couple was resolved.
Wang Ziyao even went to a specialty store to buy a suit for Gu Xuezhi for his new job.
So, Gu Xuezhi put on his newly bought suit and went to work happily.
The new job lived up to Gu Xuezhi's expectations and was very challenging, which he enjoyed very much.
In fact, his new job is to be a stockbroker who helps people buy and sell stocks to make profits.
Just imagine, every day you watch those red and green numbers on the computer jumping up and down, and then the people in front of the computer also jump up and down like they are dying. Do you think it is exciting?
If you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. Soon Gu Xuezhi actually learned how to trade stocks. At that time, the market economy was prosperous in all aspects. People didn't even need to look at the company's financial statements and performance, let alone the trends. As long as you invested money in any stock, you would make money. If you hesitated for a moment, the stock price would soon rise or even be sold out. At this time, you could only stand outside the stock exchange and cry bitterly in regret.
However, the era when everyone invested in stocks is gone forever. The real economic market cannot support the stock market that is getting higher and higher. The stock market that eventually turned into a bubble burst at the slightest touch, and the hopes of investors were shattered along with it.
The shareholders who were also standing outside the stock exchange were crying bitterly this time, but their reasons and mindsets were completely different.
After experiencing this major stock market shock, many young investors who wanted to get rich overnight were enlightened. Everyone learned to trade stocks rationally. Even though they lost everything but their underwear, they still had to eat and sleep. Most people could only regard it as a lesson learned.
Gu Xuezhi soon lost the 100,000 yuan that the rich second generation had given him in the ups and downs of the stock market. However, he was so obsessed with gambling that he didn't intend to give up. He was thinking about how to make his money back quickly.
Soon the opportunity in the dream came.
That day, the rich second generation and several people who looked like government officials walked into a secret meeting room for talks. During the meeting, Gu Xuezhi tried to go in several times on the pretext of something, but was politely asked to leave by the rich second generation.
"Who is he meeting with so mysteriously?" Gu Xuezhi was very confused. In his opinion, the rich second generation was really like a brother to him, and he would never easily deceive him about ordinary things.
Gu Xuezhi looked at the headphones under the drawer and couldn't help but put them on.
The earphones were connected to a bug he had secretly installed under the stage of the rich second generation.
The most important thing in his line of work is insider information. He never thought that the second-generation rich would hide it from him, just as he never thought that there would be a day when he would actually use a bug.
A voice came from the headphones.
"Things have become so awkward this time, do we need to make some amends?"
"Of course. This time we were just trying to make some technical adjustments, but we didn't expect it to cause such panic among investors. I guarantee that those leading companies will soon release good news and drive the entire stock market. Soon, those investors will have smiles on their faces again."
"Great, it's time to cut leeks again. That's our world. Come, let's drink to the leeks."
Then there was a chaotic sound of clinking glasses.
Gu Xuezhi suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and he quickly took off his headphones.
The rich second generation said to him, "Xiao Gu, go and see these VIPs off for me."
Gu Xuezhi greeted the government officials with a smile and sent them away.
Back at his desk, Gu Xuezhi began to think about what they had just said.
"Should I give it my all this time?" This question lingered in his mind for a long time.
He had already spent all the 100,000 yuan. Even if he decided to take a gamble, how could he get the principal back?
He plans to borrow money from the rich second generation again.
Gu Xuezhi walked into the rich second generation's office and directly told him his purpose of borrowing money.
The second-generation rich man looked embarrassed. "It's not that I mean to refuse you, but you know the investment market has been bad recently, and our company's economic performance has plummeted. Let alone lending you money, I can hardly afford to eat. I don't even know if I can pay my salary on time next month."
Gu Xuezhi was naturally very unhappy when he heard the rich second generation reject him directly for the first time. He left the rich second generation's office in a huff.
"What do you mean by brother? As soon as we talked about money, you just found an excuse to reject me. You also said that since we are brothers, we should make money together. This is a bullshit. In the end, you are still on guard against me. Aren't you afraid that I am more capable than you? Do I deserve to work under you and be your lackey for the rest of my life? I just don't believe it."
As soon as he thought of this, his temper immediately became extreme. Without saying a word, he ran back to the rich second generation's office and resigned from him.
The rich second generation tried every possible means to get Gu Xuezhi to stay.
"I simply didn't agree to lend you the money. You don't have to leave the company, do you? Every industry is in a slump right now. It'll be hard to find a job if you leave!"
Gu Xuezhi: "I'm really fed up with this job. Plus, my wife is about to give birth, so I just can't handle it all!"
Seeing that Gu Xuezhi didn't know what had happened to him and was determined to leave, the rich second generation had no choice but to agree to let Gu Xuezhi leave the company.
After leaving his job, Gu Xuezhi immediately went back to the loan sharks who had lent him money.
When the loan sharks saw that he looked like he had made a fortune, and considering his eloquence, they were all very happy to lend him the largest amount of money.
Gu Xuezhi borrowed 500,000 yuan in one go. His heart began to beat wildly as he looked at the multiple zeros on the computer.
He remembered the dreams he had had before, the clients who had made fortunes thanks to him, and even the rich second generation who had helped him.
Gu Xuezhi said to himself: "From now on, I don't have to envy others anymore, because I am a wealthy family myself."
Then, he made up his mind and invested all the money in his account into the stock market.
