Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 821: The End of Prosperity, Celebrating the Remaining Years
Black swan events often occur in the stock market. Some, like the Black Monday in the US stock market in 1987, triggered a financial tsunami around the world with far-reaching impact. Some are like a prank that came for no reason and quickly disappeared into thin air.

But for everyone involved, this black swan event is undoubtedly a disaster.

Qiang Mujie was one of them. Although the Shanghai Stock Exchange was suspended for only five minutes, it was a major blow to the confidence of investors. Dozens of stocks in the Shanghai Stock Exchange then plummeted at the same time.

Luwan Department Store is no exception. At one point, its stock price was in danger of falling below the issue price.

In order to snatch bargaining chips from Qin Hao, Qiang Mujie not only emptied the reserve funds of Shenzhen Guotou, but also used the reputation of Shenzhen Guotou to borrow money from other financial institutions. If the share price of Luwan Department Store could be stabilized, all this would be fine. However, seeing that the shares of Luwan Department Store were about to become a pile of waste paper, these financial institutions naturally urged Qiang Mujie to repay the loan.

However, all the money of Shenzhen Guotou Shanghai Branch had been emptied by Qiang Mujie, so there was no money to pay them back, so these financial institutions began to ask Shenzhen Guotou headquarters for debt collection.

This matter became a big deal. After learning about the incident, Shenzhen Guotou immediately suspended Qiang Mujie from all his positions and sent an investigation team to Shanghai to investigate.

The team members had long been dissatisfied with Qiang Mujie's one-man style. After some exaggeration, Qiang Mujie was eventually transferred to the judicial authorities on charges of causing major losses to state-owned assets. In the future, even if he is released, it will be difficult for him to work in finance-related industries.

The Qilin Club, which teamed up with Qiang Mujie, also suffered heavy losses in this black swan incident. However, Qin Hao did not intend to miss the opportunity to strike hard at the downed dog, and he sniped at several stocks that were heavily held by the Qilin Club in the stock market.

Doctor Wu still hoped that he could get Qin Hao's forgiveness by just swallowing his pride and asking for peace, just like last time. However, this time Qin Hao didn't even look at him.

Under Qin Hao's brutal sniping, which did not hesitate to injure a thousand enemies and eight hundred of his own, many stocks of Qilin Club were liquidated, and team members went bankrupt and were liquidated by the bank.

From then on, the Qilin Society, which had been entrenched in Shanghai for nearly six years and once had all-powerful power, completely collapsed. The team members fell apart. Some left Shanghai to develop in Shenzhen, while others directly withdrew from the stock market and engaged in other industries.

On the other hand, due to long-term operating losses, Li Li had to sell Zhizhen Garden to a Taiwanese woman named Mrs. Lin, and they disappeared from the public eye together with Mr. An. It was rumored that they went to Mr. An's hometown to do small business to make a living, and some said that they were killed by Qin Hao and their bodies were thrown into the Huangpu River to feed the fish.

Originally, Lu Meilin felt a little gloating when she saw Zhizhen Garden closing down. But when Mrs. Lin from Taiwan took out a promissory note, Lu Meilin could no longer laugh.

Her husband actually borrowed money from Mrs. Lin with Jin Meilin to invest in stocks without her knowledge. In the end, he lost everything. In order to avoid Mrs. Lin's debt collection, he fell from the building and died on the spot.

"Boss Qin, I really have no choice but to ask you this."

Lu Meilin knew very well that she and Qin Hao had no friendship. The reason why the other party often ate at Jin Meilin was to avoid some scandals. After all, with her figure and appearance, it was impossible for Qin Hao to have any ambiguity with her.

But just when Lu Meilin was about to return in disappointment, Qin Hao spoke.

"I can lend you the money, but only for one year. If you can't repay the principal and interest after one year, the name Jin Meilin will never appear on Huanghe Road again."

At first, Lu Meilin couldn't believe her ears. She was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses. She signed the IOU with many thanks and left with the check.

The reason why Qin Hao repeatedly helped Lu Meilin was because she was the only one among all the proprietresses on Huanghe Road who was still relatively genuine. Her hatred was basically all over her face. In a big melting pot like Huanghe Road, it was quite interesting to have such a proprietress with a genuine temperament.

In September 1994, Qin Hao and Miss Wang's first child was born, a boy, which made the old couple of the Wang family very happy. Even though they had a nanny and a confinement nanny, they were still worried and went home every few days.

However, it was also because of their care that Miss Wang was able to return to work quickly after her maternity leave. At the same time, under Qin Hao's protection, she was promoted almost every three years, reaching a higher position than her former master Jin Hua, and became a legend in the Foreign Trade Corporation.

A Bao was doing well in both foreign trade and the stock market, but he was not satisfied with the status quo and set his sights on real estate. Qin Hao also intended to enter the real estate industry, and the two sides hit it off. With the addition of Liu Sen's investment, they established a real estate company.

While developing commercial housing, Qin Hao did not forget to invest in commercial real estate. He developed a large amount of commercial real estate in cities with development potential, and MixC Plaza would be the first to move in. In just a few years, MixC Plaza had blossomed all over the mainland and became the undisputed number one shopping mall brand.

In 2000, Qin Hao's MixC acquired 30% of Luwan Department Store's shares, and together with the 23% of shares it previously held, it successfully completed a backdoor listing.

On the day of the resumption of trading, the reorganized Vientiane Department Store hit the daily limit in just forty minutes, and in the following month, it hit the daily limit 13 times in a row, with 15 days of increase exceeding 7%, becoming the object of pursuit by many investors.

[Ding, the system detects that the host has completed the story line of the Flower World. Do you want to enter the next world? ]

"What world is the next world?"

[Ding, next world: Joy of Life, do you want to load it? ]

"load!"

Feeling suffocated, Qin Hao suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sinking in the water. He quickly used his hands and feet to swim to the surface. While swimming upwards, Qin Hao found that his body had turned into that of a child.

A memory came to mind.

In the world of Joy of Life, the system assigned him the identity of a bastard in the family of the newly appointed governor of Danzhou. His fall into the water was not an accident, but his cheap father's wife instructed the boatman to deliberately capsize the boat on the way to his post, in an attempt to nip this threat in the bud.

After coughing up a few mouthfuls of river water, Qin Hao quickly emerged from the water. Seeing that Qin Hao was safe and sound, a gorgeously dressed lady on the boat in front looked at the servant beside her with an extremely vicious look.

"What are you still standing there for? Go and rescue the second young master. You are a bunch of useless people. What's the point of keeping you?" Qin Hui, the governor of Danzhou, scolded.

A group of servants jumped into the lake in a panic like dumplings, and swam towards Qin Hao one after another.

Considering that this body was only that of a five-year-old boy, Qin Hao pretended to be about to drown and allowed these people to rescue him onto the boat.

"Hao'er, how do you feel?" Qin Hui hugged Qin Hao and almost burst into tears.

According to the original owner's memory, the first son of his cheap father, that is, his cheap elder brother, was a premature baby. He was weak since childhood and was almost raised in a medicine jar. It was unknown whether he could live to adulthood. Although he was born to a concubine, considering that the father was old, it was still unknown whether he could give birth to a son in the future. Naturally, he became the apple of his eye.

No wonder the legal wife tried every possible means to get rid of him.

"Father, I am fine. Thank you for your concern."

Qin Hui heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine, but I was scared to death."

"Come here, tie up the boatman and make a decision after we get ashore!"

Obviously, this cheap old man who was able to become a prefect was not a fool. Such a big ship would not capsize easily even if there were some wind and waves on the lake.

"promise."

The boatman kept crying out for justice, but the guards carried him away regardless. In this era of strict hierarchy, the orders of the head of the family must be strictly followed.

The lady in gorgeous clothes glanced at the boatman with a cold gaze. The boatman was so scared that he quickly shut his mouth and dared not cry out for justice anymore.

"Hao'er, are you okay? I'm worried sick about you."

In the world of Joy of Life, concubines are not qualified to be called mother. At most, they are just mistresses. Only the wife is qualified to be called mother.

"I am an unfilial son. I shouldn't have caused my mother to be frightened." Qin Hao sneered in his heart, but pretended to be innocent and filial on the surface.

This scene made Qin Hui, the old father, very happy.

"Hao'er has really grown up now."

As he spoke, he did not forget to scold his wife: "Look, you always say that Hao'er doesn't respect you."

Qin Yang was so angry that she almost burst into swearing on the spot, but she had to hold it back. At the same time, she looked at Qin Hao with surprise. Before, under the instigation of the concubine, this child had always regarded her as an enemy and had never called her mother. If it weren't for her husband's repeated protection, she would not have found a chance to take action, otherwise this kid would not have lived to the age of five.

Qin Yang was shocked by Qin Hao's sudden change, but she became more alert.

Qing State values ​​benevolence and filial piety the most. If Qin Hao keeps going against her, it would be disrespectful to his mother. How can such a person with bad personal ethics inherit the family business in the future? As long as she lets a concubine who poses no threat to her husband give birth to a boy, she can easily eliminate this pair of scourges.

"Father, mother, you are all wet because of me. You'd better change into clean clothes quickly. It's windy on the lake, so don't catch a cold." Qin Hao continued to pretend to be a filial baby. In fact, he also wanted to change his wet clothes as soon as possible. Although he wouldn't get sick, it would be uncomfortable.

Sure enough, Qin Hui was deeply moved by what he said, and he also came to his senses: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and help the Second Young Master go into the room to take a shower and change clothes!"

"Yes."

Soon, two maids led Qin Hao into the cabin, and hot water was soon brought.

He soaked in a wooden tub, enjoying the touch of the maid's white and tender hands, but unfortunately his body was too small to do anything.

Of course, Qin Hao was not idle either. He began to ask the two maids some questions about the world of Joy of Life in a roundabout way.

Although he had some understanding of the main plot, he knew very little about the details of the customs and culture of this world. After all, the original owner was just a five-year-old child who was raised in an official's house, and his understanding of this world was too one-sided.

He learned from the maid that it was the 62nd year of the era. According to the timeline of the original drama, it should be the fifth year after Ye Qingmei's death, which means that Fan Xian should be the same age as him this year, also five years old.

That night, Qin Hao heard a commotion on the boat and vaguely heard the maids outside talking with lingering fear about the boatman who jumped into the lake to commit suicide at night.

"How cruel! This is indeed a feudal society where people don't take people's lives seriously." Qin Hao sneered, then slowly closed his eyes and began to meditate and practice Qi.

However, what made Qin Hao depressed was that no matter how he visualized, there was no trace of true energy in his body.

Logically speaking, true qi does exist in the world of Joy of Life.

Each of the four great masters is a person who has practiced true qi to the extreme.

"Is it because the visualization method is not applicable in this world?"

It seemed that this was the only possibility. Qin Hao vaguely remembered that Ye Qingmei mentioned in a letter she later wrote to Fan Xian that the so-called true energy in this world was actually nuclear radiation. The humans who survived the nuclear war gradually adapted to the existence of nuclear radiation due to physical mutations, and created methods to use nuclear radiation to strengthen themselves.

Therefore, the "true qi" in the world of Joy of Life is not the same as the "true qi" in the world of martial arts. It is not produced through physical nourishment and circulation through the meridians, but is obtained by absorbing external energy.

Although power struggles occupy a large part of the world of Joy of Life, powerful combat capability is still a decisive existence, just like the four great masters, each of whom has a deterrent power like a nuclear weapon.

"It seems that if I want to obtain the method of cultivating true qi, I still have to rely on Fan Xian!"

Fortunately, his stepfather was about to take up the post in Danzhou, and at this time Fan Xian was being raised in Danzhou as an illegitimate child.

In the next few days, the journey was smooth. My stepfather's wife did not cause any trouble, and they soon arrived in Danzhou.

My stepfather also started to get busy. Although he was a prefect officially appointed by the Ministry of Personnel and was considered to be in a high position of power, when he arrived at the local area, he still had to mingle with the local aristocratic class, and daily banquets were naturally indispensable.

Qin Hao was arranged to live in a remote courtyard in the prefectural government. His stepfather's wife did not hire a tutor for Qin Hao, on the pretext that she had just moved and was busy with work. She hoped that Qin Hao would be neither good at literature nor martial arts and be despised by her husband.

Qin Hao was also happy to have some free time, so on the third day after settling down, he quietly slipped out of the prefect's mansion.

Danzhou is a small place with little presence in Qing State. It is not on a major transportation route, nor is it a battleground for military strategists, nor does it have rich mineral resources. The people in this place mainly make a living by farming, and even the commercial streets in the city are a bit deserted.

Qin Hao was walking slowly on the cobblestone road of the commercial street. He was about to find someone to ask where the Fan Mansion was when he suddenly saw a man wearing a blindfold and dressed in black walking past him.

Five bamboos?

Qin Hao immediately followed. This was a powerful fighting force comparable to the four great masters.
