Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 376 Money moves people’s hearts

"If I say I'm not unhappy today, will you come?"

After Lin Lang asked his question, Shen An'an was silent for about a minute before asking, "Should I not go?"

"Okay, I'll go back in a while."

Shen An'an was silent for a while, then said, "Thank you for not lying to me."

"Why would I lie to you? You promised to sleep with me anyway. If you don't sleep with me, I'm not doing it."

"Okay, I just saw the net asset value update, it's 77.8%, you're amazing!"

"Right, haha... I'll come back to find you in a month and a half at most."

"Okay, then I won't go to Shanghai today. You should get some rest."

Shen An'an took the initiative to end the chat.

In fact, after Lin Lang's family and Yan Li's family met and went to Shanghai together, she knew that Lin Lang's future marriage partner could only be Yan Li.

Lin Lang couldn't shake off Yan Li, and Yan Li wouldn't let Lin Lang leave.

I was wrong from the very beginning.

77.8%! Lin Lang actually made such a terrifying profit overnight. What could he possibly be unhappy about?
The only one who's unhappy is yourself.

Oh well, it doesn't matter, as long as they're happy.

……

"My God, what have I discovered? Is this really a net asset value that can be generated overnight?"

"Damn it, could Tianjin Capital be faking it? I've been looking at it for ages, and I just can't believe such a number exists."

"Brothers, what does the word 'estimate' mean here?"

It means "roughly the same".

"No, can anyone tell me how to earn 77 points a day?"

"To be precise, it's seventy-eight, or even seventy-nine. Tianjin Capital also charges management fees."

"Damn, I'm convinced, I'm really convinced. I hereby declare that this new QDII fund will be the greatest fund manager in the world."

"How are the brothers inside feeling now?"

"I've exited the cabin and feel great! My whole family of six used our ID cards to gamble, and we made nearly 5,000 yuan in one day."

"I spent 24 yuan to buy 20 gold coins. I thought I was stupid enough, but I never expected that the first day would bring me such a big surprise."

"Brother, do you have any extra gold coins? I'll buy them for thirty."

"Do you think I'm an idiot? The black market price has already gone up to eighty!"

"Holy crap! You might not believe it, but I had no idea about Tianjin Capital before. When I went back home for Chinese New Year, I heard my parents talking about Tianjin Wealth's sign-in program, and that someone was collecting them for ten yuan a coin. By the time I got back, my parents had already sold more than two hundred of them."

"No, where did they get so many of them?"

“They used to give away 100 yuan for replying to posts, and they were the first ones to get in.”

"Dude, you've missed out on a huge fortune. Some people are already predicting that Tianjin Wealth Coins will rise to at least a thousand in the future."

"A thousand? Who would buy that?"

"There are plenty of buyers. Today, the large buyers are offering 80, but many people are offering 100 or even 150 to buy on a small scale. Tianjin Capital can earn 78 points a day. How much can they earn in a year? Tianjin Global Selection has increased tenfold in less than two months. Is this new fund going to be bad? Is the next fund going to be bad? If it weren't for the fact that you can still get gold coins by signing in, the price of gold coins would have already skyrocketed."

"What happened to that guy who bet that it wouldn't be more than 20%?"

"I am here. I think like a normal person, but Tianjin Capital is a god. There's nothing shameful about me, a mere mortal, not being able to comprehend the height of a god."

"We all thought Tianjin Capital was going to make a big move this time, but we didn't expect them to be holding back. I never thought I would have any expectations for a thousand yuan in my life."

"Now I finally understand what those guys at Tianjin Global Selection are like. This is the most awesome thing in the world. A thousand yuan can make me feel so good. If it were ten thousand yuan, I can't even imagine how high I could fly."

"Holy crap! Tianjin Capital has lifted the purchase limit! I have over a hundred gold coins, let me in, let me in!"

"Dude, you should be grateful you made a thousand yuan. Do you know what happened on other platforms after the net asset value data came out? People there went crazy."

"I'm going crazy! I didn't bother redeeming it before because I thought the 1,000 yuan limit was too small, but now I regret it..."

"???? I can only say that you're not short of a thousand dollars, buddy."

"I'm not short of a thousand dollars, but I'm short of ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand! This is a real chance to gamble a thousand dollars for a hundred thousand dollars. The most profitable business I've ever done in my life was buying a pair of gloves for two dollars and working on a construction site, earning 160 dollars a day. That's only an eighty-fold return."

……

Whether it's major financial media outlets or internet platforms, from Weibo to Baidu Tieba to short videos and even various live streaming rooms.

Topics related to Tianjin Capital can be seen everywhere.

The 6.8 million participating identities are the disseminators of this topic.

All financial news anchors on the internet can't avoid this issue, because as long as they talk about it, it will generate discussion and traffic.

The mysterious veil surrounding Tianjin Capital has once again swept across the internet.

Previously, Tianjin Capital was very popular and had gone viral several times.

However, the vast majority of people still have little interest in Tianjin Capital, have no urgent need for financial management and investment, and feel that so-called financial management is a scam.

In fact, that's true; we can't blame them.

Whether you buy funds or stocks, the risk of losing money is a constant throughout the entire process.

Therefore, it's difficult for Tianjin Capital to provoke them once or twice; most of them just treat it as a bit of fun.

But this time, for many people, it was a reversal. They began to re-examine Tianjin Capital and to re-understand it.

Because of a 78% return overnight.

Self-media outlets won't mention the 1,000 yuan limit per person; they'll simply amplify the 78% figure and emphasize that millions of fund investors bought in, resulting in a 78% increase in assets overnight, almost equivalent to doubling.

……

"Liang Jiwei, you fucking have to pay me back! I have eighty-one gold coins now, and if you don't pay me back, I won't give you any more gold coins!"

Chu Tianhe called Liang Jiwei directly.

He just got Liang Jiwei about 10,000 gold coins yesterday. The cost of his scam was 10 yuan, but Liang Jiwei paid him 31 yuan.

When he came back today, the seller refused to sell to him at all. In fact, he was blocked by many elderly people who demanded more money from him, saying that he had cheated them.

After all, this topic was so big that almost every elderly person knew about it.

It turns out that the gold coins they earned by checking in every day were actually quite valuable, but some unscrupulous guy took them away for ten yuan each.

Chu Tianhe himself collected goods in several towns near his hometown, but this time he not only failed to gain anything, but was also blocked at his doorstep by people from several towns.

He was terrified that those people would demolish his hometown and then trample him to death.

In that case, he might be the most wronged person in the world.

He had no choice but to admit that he had also been scammed and offered to give an extra five dollars for each gold coin.

So he called Liang Jiwei.

Liang Jiwei said, "Where am I supposed to get the money to make up for it?"

"Don't you have tens of thousands of gold coins? Big players buy them for eighty yuan each. You'd better sell some of them quickly, and then give me forty yuan for each gold coin you sell, or I'm not letting you off the hook!"

"No selling, no replacements! Take it or leave it!" "You son of a bitch..."

Chu Tianhe actually had a crazy idea: to collect gold coins himself and then sell them when the price of gold coins was high.

If those gold coins had been in my possession from the beginning, I would now have nearly 80,000 of them, which would be worth 6.4 million if sold.

However, he knew that the current price of eighty yuan was inflated, and with so many people now aware of the true value of Tianjin Wealth Gold Coins, it would be almost impossible to buy them at a lower price.

It's too late to stock up now.

If Liang Jiwei hadn't received those nearly ten thousand gold coins last night, he would have made a fortune too. The problem is, he did give them to him.

He couldn't understand why he could never seem to control the wealth that was clearly in his own hands.

If I had stopped investing in stocks after making ten million, what would my situation be now?
If you had taken out a high-interest loan not to cheat people, but to buy Tianjin Mixed Optimized Stock in your own name, what would the situation be like now?
What would happen if he had taken nearly 80,000 gold coins cheaply and kept them for himself instead of giving them to Liang Jiwei?
Opportunities to make money rained down on him, but he managed to dodge them all perfectly.

You dodged it...

……

Liang Jiwei really couldn't afford it anymore; he had no money, and neither did the old man.

After all, it was manageable when gold coins were only a few dollars each in the early stages, but when they reached thirty dollars each, it was simply impossible for two people to afford them.

Even if Chu Tianhe hadn't made this call, he still wanted to tell Chu Tianhe about this.

Chu Tianhe had just hung up the phone when another call came in.

"Liang Jiwei, can you persuade my dad to sell those gold coins? I admit I misunderstood you before, but the price has really hit rock bottom now. Even if you only sell half, that's worth several million..."

The phone number of that uncle's single daughter.

"Sister, this has nothing to do with me."

Who are you calling "sister"?

"No, you're three years older than me. I won't call you 'sister,' I'll call you 'auntie,' or if that's still not okay, I'll call you 'grandma.'"

"I don't care what you want, you have to sell those gold coins, sell them! Otherwise I'm calling the police!"

"Then go ahead and call the police. What does it have to do with me? The gold coins aren't under my control."

“But my dad insists that half of it belongs to you. I know you didn’t contribute any money. You asked my dad for half in your own name, and we’ll split the money after we sell it. You’ll make over a million for free. What more could you want?”

"Uncle was just being polite. Those gold coins have nothing to do with me. Please don't call me again because of this."

After hanging up the phone, Liang Jiwei let out a long sigh of relief.

He was naturally envious of the profits from so many gold coins, but he never expected that the gold coin price could rise to such an outrageous level.

He didn't know if the gold coins would continue to rise, but he didn't have many; they were all earned through his own logins.

He also got hold of his parents' accounts, and they checked in every day. Excluding the thirty he used, the rest added up to just two hundred.

Anyway, he's content now.

He was incredibly excited when he learned that the gold coin price had risen to eighty yuan that morning.

With millions in profits, all I have to do is tell my uncle, take the money, and sell one-fifth of what's mine. That'll be enough to pay back my uncle's initial investment.

But he eventually managed to steady his trembling hands.

It's not that he hates money; it's just that he only put in some effort and didn't spend a single penny on this matter.

Meeting Tianjin Capital was already the greatest stroke of luck in his life. Even if there was more luck, he wanted to save it for his future life, for the life after he officially emerged from the mire.

He feared that if he embezzled this sum, he might go to extremes in the future.

……

Tang Jianguo and his wife are quite old. They have only one son, who went to university, found a wife, got a job, bought a house in the city, and had a daughter.

The elderly couple farmed a few acres of land in their hometown, and with various odd jobs, they could only earn a little over ten thousand yuan a year.

They are very frugal with their food, saving up 10,000 yuan a year, which they plan to use to pay off their son's mortgage.

However, her son hasn't come back for almost three years.

I thought my son would come back this year, bringing his city wife and granddaughter...

On New Year's Eve, all I received was a phone call from someone who wouldn't come back, saying they got off work late, there was traffic on the way, and they had to go back to work early after the New Year...

After the New Year, a cold snap struck, and his wife was also unwell, so he spent the New Year in a cold and lonely manner.

Even the only two households in the village, who brought their children back for the New Year, didn't come to his house on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Actually, he had prepared candy and even went to town to buy a pack of good cigarettes worth more than twenty yuan, just to entertain his guests.

He does have relatives, but they come and go in a hurry, and they're generally not willing to eat at his house. At most, they'll bring him some things or give him a hundred yuan.

Gifts, in general, must be reciprocated.

Over the past few days, he has visited his relatives' homes one after another, bought drinks and some cookies, and then returned them.

Of course, I didn't eat their food either.

"Old woman, where did you put your phone? I'll go to town and see if that guy who buys gold coins is around. If he is, I'll sell the gold coins to him... I don't know if he's a scammer..."

“That belongs to the He family. How could I lie to them? It’s in my cotton-padded jacket pocket. Take it.”

"That's hard to say..."

The elderly couple used basic mobile phones and couldn't access the internet. However, the person collecting the coins was kind enough to register a number using their phone number, verify their identity, and tell them what tasks they had completed. The person also said they could come anytime and would receive the money as long as they entered a verification code.

As a result, I haven't been able to go because of other things, but I'm planning to go and sell it today.

I received a phone call when I was only halfway there.

He didn't find that number unfamiliar.

After the call connected, he heard that familiar voice.

"Dad, how are you feeling?"

"I'm fine, I ate two bowls of rice at noon."

A relieved smile appeared on his wrinkled face.

But a woman's voice immediately came from the other end of the phone: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Hurry up and tell me about Tianjin Wealth Coins, or we'll get scammed."

"My parents both use old-fashioned phones, how could they possibly have any wealth coins?"

"Then have them buy a knock-off phone, it only costs a hundred or two yuan, right? After they buy it, have them download the app, sign in, and transfer the coins to us."

"Do Mom and Dad know how to use smartphones? Let's go back to our hometown together."

Tang Jianguo could hear the chaotic sounds coming from the phone clearly.

Soon, his son's voice came through: "Dad, we'll drive back in a bit, we should arrive around 10 p.m.."

"Okay, okay..."

The old man's smile became even more gratified.

He didn't know what the gold coin was, but he knew it was a good thing; it could bring his son and granddaughter back...
