Chapter 258: Chapter 151: Master Jiang Says: Stock Trading Is a Scam!

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

In my hometown, there’s a custom of visiting and tending to graves twice a year, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and Qingming Festival.

Some places do this on New Year’s Eve and Qingming, while others only do it on Qingming.

Anyway, after Li Yang returned home, his parents quickly noticed something was off. He had no choice but to confess that he’d been in a car accident, and then... he became useless on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Usually, they’d at least ask him to carry some things, but this time they didn’t even let him carry the spirit money.

The grave visit was just for show; they didn’t even let him kowtow.

According to Wang Cuiping, they’d given too much before, and the ancestors were too busy spending money to take care of people.

Otherwise, how could Li Yang have gotten into a car accident?

When Li Yang got into university, Li Likun and Wang Cuiping burned a lot of spirit money; fireworks and firecrackers were hauled in with a car, and the spirit money burned day and night without extinguishing.

For Li Yang, getting injured had its benefits.

At least when Chen Jie came looking for him, he could openly use his injury as an excuse not to stream.

Otherwise, Chen Jie would definitely think of ways to make him continue with the livestream.

After all, there was a contract... the contract also mentioned increasing stream time, but it wasn’t cost-effective, and no platform was willing to do it.

But who knows if Chen Jie might go crazy, and be willing to add a few million as signing fees just to make Li Yang extend his streaming hours.

Now that his hand was injured, even if there were demands, they were useless.

The injury was a force majeure, and they were lucky not to count it as a work injury.

The sixteenth day of the first lunar month marked the end of the festive atmosphere as countless people hurriedly left.

Li Yang’s academic term started on the eighteenth. Jiang Banxia’s makeup exam for the failed course was scheduled for two weeks after school started, mainly because the semester started earlier this year, and exam rooms were hard to schedule.

So, they planned to leave on the seventeenth, with Jiang Yaoting driving them to Jiangbei before they took the high-speed train to the Capital City.

On the sixteenth, Li Yang did nothing but leveraged online investments, engaged in one-to-one financing, and then jumped into Dongcai.

With the funds he had, looking for more financing wasn’t very realistic.

He had a hundred million and could leverage three hundred million.

He had three hundred million and could leverage nine hundred million.

But with four hundred million, he could only leverage eight hundred million.

Similarly, with five hundred million, he could at most leverage one billion.

Once he had six hundred million in capital, he didn’t need to leverage anymore; financing accounts were directly 1:1, simple and convenient.

Even with two billion, it would still be one-to-one.

Though both are essentially borrowing money, financing is legal and compliant, with meager review processes, while leveraging is skirting regulations.

This year’s bull market primarily resulted from inadequate regulation of leveraging, causing funds in the market to all be heavily leveraged, thus forming a leveraged bull market.

Regulation of leveraging would mark the end of the bull market.

The first trading day of March marked the beginning, with Dongcai being the catalyst.

And the most intense phase of this bull market was anchored to this event.

The market index directly broke through 3,400 points.

For Junsheng Capital, this was the darkest day.

Originally, the board was about to meet, but several shareholders suddenly couldn’t be reached.

Wang Junsheng sent people to gather information, but they came back empty-handed. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

It was as if those shareholders had vanished into thin air.

Wang Junsheng slammed the table in anger to no avail; he had no idea what was happening.

And at the center of the storm, Ye Bingcheng, who knew the most, found himself momentarily at a loss.

The sky over Jiang City had collapsed!

He didn’t know what happened; he’d merely investigated a few subordinate departments, and suddenly even his boss fell, and completely so, to the point that no evidence was needed.

Moreover, Green Water Group’s shareholders, except for Sun Jianjun, were all secretly arrested.

He couldn’t imagine who had such power.

Previously, his tasks were the toughest with no benefits.

Now... there’s no one to work, and though he has the most power, it’s still the toughest and most strenuous...

Working late into the night, he called Bai Qing.

"President Bai, there’s been an incident here..."

"Yes, I know, and I also know you’re the only one truly considering the good of Green Water Group."

"Hmm?"

"I’m planning to sell Green Water Group. Actually, Green Water Group’s performance is good; it’s still a solid company. As long as it can operate normally, it doesn’t need much effort... I won’t disturb your rest..."

Bai Qing hung up the phone.

Though she used polite terms, Ye Bingcheng could clearly feel her coldness.

Suddenly, he had an idea, wondering if Bai Qing was behind it...

He shuddered, not daring to think further.

He also felt that Green Water Group had issues, significant ones.

The Bai family, supposedly willing to give back to their hometown, were difficult to comprehend, but it wasn’t necessary to sacrifice so much interest.

He’d only been in Jiang City for a year and wasn’t entirely clear about everything, but now he understood faintly.

He genuinely wanted to help solve the issue, but nothing he did worked; no matter how good his ideas and plans, the result was always disappointing.

It felt like... everyone was bullying him, the newcomer.

In reality, it was merely because they were not part of the same interest group.

...

On the seventeenth, Jiang Banxia insisted on sitting in the back with Li Yang.

She quietly pulled out a tablet, showing Li Yang her account details.
