Chapter 248 Seizing the Opportunities of the Times



Jiang Mingxin is ready to marry Xing Haodong.

But he didn't know that Xing Haodong was also thinking about this matter.

He knew that Jiang Mingxin didn't care about those formalistic things, but because of this, he should give it more consideration.

Jiang Mingxin's mother died early and her father was a good-for-nothing. Although the Xing family would never treat her unfairly in marriage, she was still alone in Beijing without any relatives to help her.

Although she has a twin sister, Kong Xintang, she is only the adopted daughter of the Kong family after all. If she actively helps others, she will inevitably be gossiped about.

Therefore, as a husband, he should think more about her.

After much deliberation, Xing Haodong decided to propose first, then get the marriage certificate, and then hold the wedding.

All the necessary procedures must be followed, and everyone in the circle must know that Jiang Mingxin is his wife, whom he cherishes and respects.

When his injuries were almost healed, he persuaded Jiang Mingxin to leave.

Only Jiang Bin was left by her side, recovering from his injuries while thinking about how to propose.

Jiang Mingxin did not return to school immediately, but instead chose the right time to meet Kong Xintang in Hai City.

On this day, the weather in Hai City was as sunny as usual.

Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang walked into the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China hand in hand, came to the counter and expressed their desire to buy subscription certificates.

When the female teller heard that they wanted to buy subscription certificates, she became a little excited.

You know, since the bank started selling stock warrants this year, she hasn't sold a single one and is worried.

In order to sell more certificates, ICBC has specially formulated a reward policy for its employees. They can get 30 cents for each certificate sold. Their monthly salary is less than 100 yuan, so if they sell more than 100 certificates, the bonus will be very considerable!

The brand new subscription certificates were quickly brought to the counter, and the teller smiled gently at them: "Ladies, how many stock subscription certificates do you want?"

"The current price of each subscription certificate is 3 yuan. There are 1,000 certificates in a book. You can buy as many as you want..."

At 3 yuan per ticket, and numbers are chosen by lottery, local residents think this is a losing deal.

Several aunties around them stared at Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang curiously. How come these two beautiful girls are not so smart and have to come here to be taken advantage of?

Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingxin smiled calmly and said, "Let's start with sixty books."

"How many?"

The female teller and several middle-aged women nearby screamed almost at the same time, attracting the attention of many customers. Even the bank manager was attracted and thought something big had happened.

Jiang Mingxin tapped the table with her fingertips. "She and I each have thirty copies. Do you have that many in stock?"

As he said that, he put his backpack on the counter and took out several stacks of hundred-dollar bills.

"Here's 180,000. Hurry up and take out the subscription certificate."

"If it's too late, we'll go to another bank."

The female teller felt dizzy and almost didn't react. She was suddenly pushed by the bank manager and she stood up hurriedly, her legs a little weak.

"Kill you, just go get the inventory!"

Sixty copies!

A full six thousand photos!!!

The female teller shuddered and ran to the back. If it was too late, she would suffer a huge loss!

The bank manager kept rubbing his hands, obviously very excited.

"Judging from your accents, you two aren't from Hai City. Whose ID did you use to make the purchase?"

Kong Xintang immediately took out two Hai City local ID cards from her bag.

Before coming, they had made the best preparations and asked someone to find two honest local people in Hai City to borrow their ID cards.

The aunties around were all amazed, staring at the huge amount of money on the counter.

What kind of people are these? They just spent 180,000 yuan like that. Are these two girls crazy?

Will their families agree?

There was no hesitation on the faces of Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang.

They have been saving money for the past two years just for this day.

Soon sixty stock subscription certificates were placed in front of them.

After checking the ID card, Jiang Mingxin looked at the overjoyed female teller and asked, "Can these subscription certificates be kept in your name? We came from Beijing and are using a relative's ID card, so it's inconvenient to keep it in your name."

The female teller was stunned for a moment and looked at the bank manager for help.

The bank manager nodded without hesitation. He had seen many clients who requested to remain anonymous, such as ticket scalpers who made money by reselling subscription certificates.

As long as it can be sold, it doesn’t matter whether it is registered or not.

Since the boss said yes, the follow-up was easy. The female teller immediately handed over 60 bearer subscription certificates to Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang. At the same time, she took 180,000 yuan in cash to the counter and counted it in front of them.

After the other party finished counting and confirmed that there was no problem with the money, they picked up their backpacks and walked out of the bank.

The whole process takes less than half an hour.

An elderly woman ran over anxiously and grabbed Jiang Mingxin's arm. "Why did you spend so much money on subscription certificates? Can subscription certificates really make money? 180,000 yuan! If you lose money, you'll..."

Jiang Mingxin didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Things are valuable because they are rare. This is something you can only get by lottery. What do you think?"

She didn't say anything else, took Kong Xintang's arm, walked out of the bank, and got into a Santana.

The old lady stood there thinking for a while, then suddenly slapped her thigh and hurried home to ask her husband for her ID card.

Then, Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang went to another bank and used the same method to purchase another 60 subscription certificates, all of which were bearer "blank slates."

After returning to the hotel, they carefully counted the remaining money and breathed a sigh of relief!

Next, just wait.

Subscription certificates can be used throughout the year, but one needs to pass four draws before one can buy listed shares, which carries great risks.

After all, no one can guarantee that every subscription certificate will win the lottery.

At the same time, the expensive price of 3 yuan per ticket exceeded everyone's psychological bottom line, and only local citizens could buy it. The high threshold naturally scared away many people.

But that soon changed.

Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang did not wait in the hotel. They returned to Beijing to go to school the next day, and then took a bus here on the weekend to observe the situation in the securities market.

More than half a month later, the second-hand market for subscription certificates suddenly became hot. The price of a hundred consecutive certificates soared from 3 yuan to about 20,000 yuan today, which means a tenfold profit after reselling them. This was something no one had expected before!

The aunt who was advised by Jiang Mingxin that day and bought 100 subscription certificates became rich in no time.

Not only was she overjoyed, but her husband and son also praised her for her good taste.

In addition to middlemen, many well-dressed elites also began to take action themselves, asking around, hoping to acquire one or two "blank slates" and break into the stock market.

Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang stood still as a mountain, watching everything calmly.

"Sister, do you want to keep all these whiteboards and gamble on your chances of winning, or sell some of them?"

"Of course, they sold a small portion at a high price and kept most of it."

The two looked at each other and saw ambition in each other's eyes.
