Chapter 286

The Chen family and the Jiang family are both old and powerful families in Hong Kong City. They have established their business in Hong Kong City since the last generation, and their foundation is not small.

However, no matter how strong their foundation is, they cannot withstand the turmoil. The heads of the two families in this generation are not very talented. After being cheated by Meng Huaiqing and Zhao Mingqian so many times, their strength is not as good as before. This time, they have already swallowed up Meng Huaiqing's stocks.

If the stock market falls, it will be a disaster for them.

Although the two have shortcomings, they are not stupid people.

Boss Chen was the first to react, and he drank the wine in his glass. "Why are you panicking? This year has been a bull market, and it is normal to have occasional declines. I think this is an opportunity."

Looking at his eyes, Jiang Licheng's heart was pounding. "You mean, take the opportunity to buy some more stocks at the bottom?"

But this is a gamble. If they win, they will make a lot of money, but if they lose, and the market will continue to decline, then they will be doomed.

Jiang Licheng was a little hesitant and undecided.

"Of course." Boss Chen stood up immediately, "I'll leave now."

When Boss Chen went back to raise funds, Jiang Licheng was also thinking about this matter. Mao Xinhui spoke at the right time, "Boss, I think what Boss Chen said makes sense. The stock market has been doing well this year. It doesn't make sense that we will be affected by any movement overseas. I think we have to follow up."

Jiang Licheng walked back and forth in the room, "But we are already in a difficult situation in terms of funds."

"What are you afraid of? Just get through this period first, and sell some when the price reaches a high point. After the fundraising is completed, what else do we need?" Mao Xinhui felt that people should not be timid. Since they have already done it, there is no turning back. "We have been keeping a close eye on the movements of the Chen family. Once they make a move, we will immediately take action."

Although there was another drop in the afternoon, many people still held an optimistic attitude, and even some wealthy families took the opportunity to buy in, just waiting for the bottom to rise.

At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, news came that the Chen family had bought in a large number of shares. Jiang Licheng gritted his teeth and directly bought in a large number of funds that he had just raised.

That night, Meng Huaiqing returned from overseas and went to see Zhao Mingqian first.

Zhao Mingqian told Meng Huaiqing the news he had found out, "The Jiang family and the Chen family bought a lot of stocks at the bottom this afternoon."

"This is in line with their gambler mentality." Meng Huaiqing reached out to drink the tea, and when he saw Zhao Mingqian handing him a cigarette, he shook his head, "Uncle Zhao, I don't smoke."

Zhao Mingqian was happy, "Does your girlfriend not like it?"

"No, it's me who doesn't like it." Meng Huaiqing retorted.

Zhao Mingqian stopped persuading him, and instead said, "Huaiqing, you have found a treasure."

Meng Huaiqing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Qin Xiang." Zhao Mingqian said, "The market started to fall at noon today. I have a bad feeling." He looked at the night outside the window and said, "Hong Kong City is going to change."

Meng Huaiqing laughed, "A bunch of rich people become poor, it seems quite interesting."

Meng Huaiqing did not have much good impression of those wealthy families. On the contrary, those retail investors might use the whole family's strength to speculate in stocks. Once a stock market crash occurs, it will be catastrophic. How desperate will life be.

He could not imagine or control this stock market crash, so he just smiled, "It is a blessing in my life to have her as my wife."

The two parted ways, and Meng Huaiqing went back to the house where they lived. It was still a mess inside.

Qin Xiang had told him to let someone clean up before coming in, but he didn't. He went into the room alone. Looking at the messy room, imagining Qin Xiang's face full of joy and her mouth shouting wildly, he couldn't help laughing.

Every corner was full of traces of Qin Xiang's life. When he opened the refrigerator, there were even half-eaten grapes inside.

The grapes were chilly. Meng Huaiqing picked one, washed it and put it in his mouth. The cold touch made him frown.

Qin Xiang didn't know how many cold ones she had secretly eaten when he couldn't see.

After cleaning up the room and lying on the bed, it was already midnight.

Smelling Qin Xiang's scent on the quilt, Meng Huaiqing fell asleep peacefully.

The next day was the weekend, and Meng Huaiqing got up early and the phone rang.

Qin Xiang stood on the street of Pengcheng and asked, "Mr. Meng, are you okay?"

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Very good, in a good mood, how about Miss Qin?"

"Miss Qin is not bad either." Qin Xiang smiled.

The two did not mention the stock market crash, but only the gains this time. They pitted the Jiang family and the Chen family. It can be said that these two families covered their stocks.

A large amount of funds will be converted into US dollars and brought into the mainland, and Qin Xiang's era will also begin.

Meng Huaiqing said, "I will go through the border at noon, you wait for me."

"You are not waiting to finish in Gangcheng?" Qin Xiang was surprised, "I thought you would take the opportunity to expand your power."

Meng Huaiqing laughed, "It doesn't make sense. I am developing electronic technology and real estate industries, which are completely different from the Chen family and the Jiang family. There is no room for real estate in Gangcheng, so it can only fall on the mainland, so Gangcheng should only retain technology. Besides, the market is closed on weekends, and it's not interesting for me to watch them sing the reverberation song here. It will be more interesting to come back on Monday to watch."

Qin Xiang also laughed and joked, "I suspect you are surrendering to me and saying that you will take root in the mainland in the future."

"You are right." Meng Huaiqing's depressed heart became better because of Qin Xiang's words, "There is an old saying that the husband sings and the wife follows, but the wife sings and the husband follows seems to be quite good. I hope Miss Qin will give me a chance."

"What chance? What other chance do you want?" Qin Xiang was helpless, "I have promised to marry you, and people should not be greedy."

Meng Huaiqing was helpless, "Well, my partner is not romantic at all, I don't know what to say next."

"Then save it for when it's time to say it." Qin Xiang sighed and said, "I have to go back to the capital, I'll go back to the capital and wait for you."

It was already October 17th, and there were only a few days left in the holiday.

Meng Huaiqing hurriedly said, "Didn't I say that I would go over at noon, at least wait for me to see you, and I will have someone send you back to the capital."

Qin Xiang was just trying to scare him, so she gave him the address and hung up the phone.

This is the last peaceful weekend. Even though the stock market index fell at the close of yesterday, no one noticed that this was a stock market crash.

In the morning, I could see on the news that some so-called experts in Hong Kong were still optimistic about the stock market and believed that it was just an accident.

But in fact, America, which opened a little later than Hong Kong City, also fell early in the morning.

Qin Xiang returned to the hotel, washed and dressed, and put on some light makeup.

Near noon, Qin Xiang gave Zhao Ping and the others a day off, and they will fly back to the capital tomorrow evening.

After twelve o'clock, Meng Huaiqing arrived as promised, and as soon as the door was closed, the man hugged Qin Xiang, "I miss you so much."

In fact, if you count carefully, the two have only not seen each other for ten days, but so many things have happened in these ten days that they both feel like many years have passed.

Kissing and lingering, it seems that only this way can express their longing for each other.

Meng Huaiqing is still strong, and he exudes a pleasant smell, and Qin Xiang indulges in it.

The two lingered for half an afternoon, and Qin Xiang was hungry. The two got up and went to the restaurant to eat, and only then did they talk about Hong Kong City.

"If you go to America and study carefully, you will find that there were signs long ago, but no one believed that the market would fall, so it was still a prosperous scene." Meng Huaiqing pinched his eyebrows helplessly, holding Qin Xiang's hand and said, "Qin Xiang, if it weren't for you, would I have been ruined this time?"

Qin Xiang shook her head, "I don't know. Even in my dreams, I only dreamed that those stocks would only rise for a period of time. As for which one would fall, I don't know."

Even if he had studied it later, Qin Xiang only knew a few representative stocks that rose before the market crash and then fell to the ground. Like some other companies, maybe they avoided it, or maybe they were lost in this disaster from the beginning.

"Maybe this is destiny." Meng Huaiqing said, "God sent you to save me."

Qin Xiang smiled, "I suddenly feel that my image has become taller."

The two poured red wine and sipped it. They no longer talked about the port city, but talked about the factory. Now it is October, the autumn clothes in the capital have been listed, and the winter clothes have begun to be produced.

Tan Xiu called and developed three more branches, all in the more developed coastal cities, radiating from the capital, so it is more convenient to ship goods.

Qin Xiang also talked about his plan, "After the branch factory in Pengcheng is built, I plan to build a branch factory in Suzhou next year and move the silk branch factory there, so that we can radiate the Yangtze River Delta region."

Meng Huaiqing affirmed this, "This is feasible. The Yangtze River Delta has a good development momentum, especially Haicheng."

Meng Huaiqing paused, "Do you want to go directly to Haicheng?"

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "If it is to develop a real estate project, it is understandable to go to Haicheng, but forget about building a factory. Once Haicheng develops and expands, the factory may have to move, which is too troublesome. It is better to directly invest funds to buy land and build a hotel near the Huangpu River."

Meng Huaiqing thought for a while, "Then maybe I can give it a try."

"Just go ahead and try." Qin Xiang made a lot of money from the stock market this time, and also lost some money

from Jiang. After converting it into US dollars and bringing it back to the mainland, it will be a huge asset. By then, the factories in Pengcheng and the hotels in Pengcheng can be built. If the budget is sufficient, maybe the land in Sucheng can be bought. Of course, she was also tempted by the land in Haicheng, but one should not be too greedy. One cannot eat a fat man in one bite. She has to do it step by step steadily.

Qin Xiang's heart was a little surging, and her eyes were bright when she was excited.

Looking at Qin Xiang like this, Meng Huaiqing couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this is what Qin Xiang should be like.

Don't compromise, don't be cowardly, and move forward bravely.

After dinner, the two went back to the hotel to rest with peace of mind.

As for nonsense, even though Meng Huaiqing's body is stronger than exercise, he can't really have sex seven times a night.

He has always understood the truth of recuperation and long-term development.

The two were still together all morning on the weekend. In the evening, Meng Huaiqing watched Qin Xiang and her own team embark on the return journey.

Watching the plane getting farther and farther away, Meng Huaiqing said, "Wait for me."

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when Qin Xiang returned to the capital, and she went straight back to school.

After being away for nearly twenty days, the school was still the same as usual.

But Qin Xiang's mood was different.

The rare tranquility and peace of Tsinghua University.

Compared with the prosperity of the port city, she still prefers the mainland.

Everything is developing, everything is full of vitality, and exudes youthful and beautiful style.

Only here can she show her full potential and use her best efforts to decorate and create. Instead of being caught up in the intrigues of the rich, women become playthings that can be controlled at will, and the relationship between father and son and mother and son is full of calculations, which makes people tired.

Back to the dormitory, several people did not sleep.

Dingxiang and Mingchuanxiu have returned from Gangcheng with the team.

Seeing Qin Xiang coming back, their eyes are a little complicated.

Because that period of time was the time when Qin Xiang became famous in Gangcheng newspapers. At that time, they were also worried, but the teacher who led the team told them that there was no need to worry about Qin Xiang. People in Gangcheng did not understand Qin Xiang, but did they not understand Qin Xiang?

From the time they went to Gangcheng and stayed in the hotel arranged by Qin Xiang, to the time they left Gangcheng after taking the TOEFL, they had no other source of information except the news about Qin Xiang's madness in the newspaper.

Compared to the excitement of others, the people in the dormitory were more worried.

When Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing were together, many people predicted their bad luck, thinking that they were not from the same world. Now that Meng Huaiqing's first love has come out, what should Qin Xiang do?

Guan Yuping lay on the bed without moving.

In the past, Qin Xiang would come down to talk when she came back, but this time she just lay there without moving.

Qin Xiang ignored her and took out some specialties from Gangcheng from her bag, "I'll treat you guys."

Ding Xiang glanced at Guan Yuping, pulled her to the side, and asked in a low voice, "Qin Xiang, are you okay?"

Qin Xiang raised her eyebrows, "What can happen to me? I'm fine."

She realized that Ding Xiang was talking about Gangcheng, and said with a smile, "You are talking about the first love of Meng Huaiqing in Gangcheng, that happened eight hundred years ago."

"But, the newspaper said that the woman had an abortion for Mr. Meng..."

Qin Xiang was helpless, "That's not true, and I'm married myself. How can a person not know whether he has done it or not? I also checked it out at the time. The child that the first love mentioned was the child of a street bully at that time. But not long after, the street bully got into trouble and was arrested. She hurriedly aborted the child and then went abroad. It has nothing to do with Meng Huaiqing. The reason why she came to me was to take advantage of Meng Huaiqing's absence to unite with the Jiang family and the Chen family to anger me and then buy the stocks I held."

"Did you sell the stocks?"

Qin Xiang nodded. "Yes, I sold them. The price was so high. I should sell them."

"Oh, but when I was there, I heard that the stocks there were rising sharply."

Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She took out a weekend newspaper from her bag. "Look, it fell on Friday."

Although Ding Xiang didn't understand stocks, she was still shocked to see the shocking word "fall".

She took a breath and said, "It's really scary. Did you clarify the first love in the newspaper?"

"Clarified."

However, after these news were published in the newspaper, they didn't make any waves. They were suppressed by the news that Qin Xiang sold the two people's stocks.

But at that time, the students of Tsinghua University had already left the port city and didn't know the follow-up of this matter.

So the rumor was brought back like this.

It doesn't take much to know that Qin Xiang has become a celebrity in the school again this time.

Qin Xiang explained, and Ding Xiang believed it. She also told Ming Chuan Xiu and a few others about it.

Ming Chuan Xiu thought about it and said worriedly, "Qin Xiang, there must be a lot of rumors about you in the school this time."

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "The innocent will be innocent."

But she had a hunch that the school would definitely find her.

Qin Xiang was really tired after catching the plane back, so she didn't go to get water. She brushed her teeth with other people's water and washed her face.

When she came out of the bathroom, she saw Guan Yuping standing at the door.

Qin Xiang knew that this person came to see her on purpose, so she said calmly, "I'm very tired and want to go back to rest."

Guan Yuping ignored her and spoke to herself, "Do you think Jie Zong can pass the exam?"

Qin Xiang frowned and looked at her, her anger rising directly, "I don't know whether he can pass the exam, but I know that if you continue like this, you will be useless. For a man, you make yourself like this, I really can't see that you, Guan Yuping, are still a romantic."

Late at night, even though the surroundings were not quiet, she still lowered her voice.

Jie Zong had been in love before, and Guan Yuping was sad at that time and even said that she would give up Jie Zong. Everyone believed it and comforted her, but she remained silent and didn't know what she did. Jie Zong broke up with that girl not long after they got along.

Later, the two seemed to get closer, and before anything happened, they started to select candidates to go abroad.

She suppressed her anger and said, "Since he signed up without your knowledge, it means that his heart has never been with you, so why do you have to make yourself like this for such a man, Guan Yuping, can't you live without a man?"

Where did the girl who was prickly but open-minded go? There

is a love-minded person next to her!

Qin Xiang turned around and left in anger, and Guan Yuping squatted on the ground and cried.

She cried, and Qin Xiang was too lazy to persuade her. After returning, Dingxiang and others knew that Guan Yuping had gone to find her.

So she said, "Our team leader said that Jie Zong's English level is very good and his major is also special, so he is likely to succeed."

The implication was already very obvious.

Qin Xiang was irritated, "Never mind, she asked for it. Maybe it will be better after the people leave."

The next day was Monday.

It was called Black Monday in history.

It was just another normal day for Qingda.

But for the global stock market, it was the beginning of a disaster.

In the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, within fifteen minutes of opening, the market fell straight down, and then it hit the limit.

Jiang Licheng was sweating profusely, and sat down on the chair. Suddenly, his face turned pale, his pupils shrank, and his whole eyelids fluttered and he passed out.
