Chapter 263 I'm coming
"Cryptocurrency, I've heard of this before, is this how you make money?"
Gu Nan was a little surprised. He had invested quite a lot in stocks, and occasionally he could make a small profit with the help of some insider information. It wasn't much, but it was higher than the bank interest rate.
"It's really like picking up money. If Brother Gu needs anything, he can come to me. I still have some channels."
Liu Ming was in high spirits and was giving orders .
"Forget it. I can't make any fortune."
Gu Nan simply pondered for a moment and then smiled.
He invests money in the stock market because he has reached a certain status and can often hear some inside information in advance. Although the stable profit is not much, at least he will not lose money.
In fact, when he first learned about cryptocurrency, he felt it was unreliable.
Maybe some speculators can make money, but it is too easy to be manipulated in a place without any transparent information, and most of them are destined to be fools.
It seems that cryptocurrency is booming now, but this kind of zero-sum game requires someone to take over and make money from others. It cannot appear out of thin air!
The current price is just the price of the highest value 'one' coin!
Just like when a major shareholder starts selling stocks to cash in, the stock price will plummet instantly once no one takes over.
Once a large number of holders of this cryptocurrency take action and bring down the highest coin, there will be no shortage of buyers and the loss will be far more serious than the stock market!
It is not impossible for places without a limit-down mechanism to clear the market overnight.
The risk is too great and not proportional to the reward. A gambler with no foundation may want to take a chance, but for him, Gu Nan, it is really unnecessary given his current situation!
This kind of money is too floating ...
"It's okay. You can come to me if you need anything. I also want Brother Gu's steady way of making money, so I've really paid attention to shipping. It's a good opportunity to ask Brother Gu about it..."
Liu Ming said modestly.
For a moment, the conversation between the two seemed to become more noble, and Qian's mother and Liu Bo beside them both laughed.
Qian Yaqian could only sigh awkwardly at this time. It all depended on whether her husband could control the other party, otherwise there would be no hope at all.
"Shipping? It does have great potential. What are you going to do?"
Gu Nan is in the shipbuilding industry and is very familiar with the closely related industries. He even has some channels not only for ships, but also for other modes of transportation.
"I actually have two projects. The first one is to buy a private jet worth about 20 million yuan and provide customized flight services."
He paused after saying this, and sure enough, this caused Qian's mother to praise him.
"Wow, a private jet! That's really cool! I can even sit on it when I don't need it."
"Of course, Auntie can sit down anytime if she wants."
Liu Ming laughed. Of course, the 20 million he mentioned were Yuan, not US dollars.
"It is indeed feasible. After all, there are not many people who are willing to buy a private jet for themselves. However, there are some people who need it. However, the maintenance cost of a private jet is still very high, and the procedures for handling it are relatively complicated."
Gu Nan did not reject the other party's proposal, but still pointed out the problem.
You can do this business, but why would you want to do it with 20 million yuan? Wouldn't it be better to buy a store instead of doing all the fancy things?
But he didn't say it, because housing prices have reached their peak and are entering a period of fatigue, and incentives for monetization of shantytown redevelopment have not yet been introduced.
This person makes money too quickly. Although he wants to settle down and enter the real economy to stabilize himself, he seems to be a little disdainful of buying a store.
Maybe he is still thinking about starting with an airplane, and slowly building his own airline to become a future aviation giant.
"What Brother Gu said is exactly what I was thinking about, so I have a second project, which is a cargo ship. I have investigated the price of cargo ships, which is about 1.5 million yuan per thousand tons. Two 10,000-ton cargo ships plus some related expenses for ocean trade should be enough."
Liu Ming said confidently.
Sea transportation is currently the mainstream for bulk goods. The price of cargo ships does not seem expensive, and it seems that there is no problem in making a profit within a year, and all the subsequent profits are earned!
"Ocean shipping is possible, but there are many problems involved. If you are not familiar with it before, you can try one ship first, and then try the second ship after you are familiar with all the procedures and processes."
In Gu Nan's opinion, this one is at least more reliable than the first one, because he is more familiar with cargo ships.
Although the other party may also be dreaming of becoming the "shipping king", at least it is more feasible.
Of course, ocean shipping itself is very risky, otherwise where would all the profits come from?
Extreme weather and piracy are all things that need to be considered. It can be said that there will be various problems in practice.
He was an outsider who rashly entered into the business. If the captain and sailors were all hired, he would probably not even know that he was being cheated.
If it's really that easy to make money, why not make money with so much capital?
"Haha, Brother Gu and I have the same idea. I'll have to ask Brother Gu for more help when the time comes. I also see that Umbrella Corporation seems to be getting involved, so I think there is great potential here."
Liu Mingshen nodded in agreement.
"Umbrella shouldn't be a transportation company. They've ordered a lot from us. It's more like a platform."
When Gu Nan said this, his tone was very calm, but one could hear a hint of pride in it.
This order is the reason why he has been busy recently, and he feels very accomplished.
"Ah? Isn't it freight? But now it seems that it takes a long time for a freighter to order and deliver directly, right?"
The topic of 'high-end' continued, allowing the other people around to broaden their horizons.
"Indeed, and after Umbrella squeezed out the production capacity, to be honest, the price of new freighters has to go up, and there will be a queue."
Gu Nan had told some inside information. In fact, the production capacity of the shipbuilding industry was there. Since Umbrella wanted so many at once, there would naturally be a lot of crowding out. It was not uncommon for second-hand ships to be sold at a higher price than when they were first bought.
This industry has a total volume and demand, and in some extreme cases, containers may be more expensive than one might expect.
"If you really want to buy it, you have to do it as soon as possible. And if you want to buy it early, you have to buy a second-hand ship. Shipping King Zhou Yun knows this, right?"
Gu Nan said lightly.
This made Liu Ming look serious.
“I’ve heard of it.”
"Because of Umbrella's impact on the shipbuilding industry, in order to avoid risks, he has recently considered selling some of his ships. If you have considered it, I can help you contact them, but you have to be mentally prepared. The market price of second-hand ships is high now, and they are more expensive than the new ships I bought before."
This immediately raised Gu Nan's status a lot, and he easily suppressed Liu Ming.
In fact, this is also a difference in background. Although Gu Nan also relies on his family, he has made his way through many times with his own hands. Compared with Liu Ming, who made his fortune with virtual currency, he has a much more solid foundation and ended the whole situation with just one sentence.
After all, money itself is just a representation of ability.
"I'll think about this. If I need anything, I'll definitely look for Brother Gu."
When the time came, Liu Ming was a little hesitant. Second-hand ships are more expensive than new ones, and it sounds like a loss no matter how you look at it.
But Wang Yi knew that this was actually all Gu Nan taking care of him, because the production capacity was now largely occupied by Umbrella, and before Umbrella's orders were digested, the number of new freighters would become fewer and fewer.
If you buy a second-hand cargo ship now, you may be able to sell it for more after running it around a few times and then selling it again.
When Uncle Liu saw his son being suppressed, he kicked him and said:
"Didn't you have dinner with Mr. Qin Xiang last time? Does he have any reliable investments?"
"Oh? You know Young Master Qin? Prince Hengwan?"
Mother Qian's eyes lit up. Even she knew the identity of that young master.
That was the real top-notch young man. To be honest, even she didn't dare to hope that her daughter could hook up with him.
In fact, Qian's mother is snobbish, but she is still clear-headed. People of that status are only interested in her daughter's beauty and are completely unreliable. Otherwise, even if she becomes a concubine, she will make a lot of money.
"Haha, no, I just had a meal with him and got to know him. It's hard to get rich from him, but I should be able to do it by asking..."
Liu Ming picked up the phone and looked like he was going to dial a number, but he quickly put it away and smiled.
"I guess they're eating now, call them later."
"It's just a meal, what's so bad about it?"
Qian Yayan, who was standing aside and couldn't hold it in any longer, finally spoke bluntly.
"You little bastard, you have no respect for your elders."
Just as Qian's mother was about to scold, Qian Yayan picked up her phone. She had contacted Qin Xiang about Ma Dong's agent company before, and Qin Xiang was very polite to her...
"If you don't hit me, I will."
Then Qian Yayan dialed the phone while everyone was in a daze and speechless...
