Volume 1: The Golden Years Chapter 008: Shorting the Stock Market
After dinner, in the Jiang family’s living room.
Aunt Sun cleared the dishes, and Yuan Xudong and the Jiang family sat on the sofa and chatted about family matters. Whenever they talked about the interesting things about Jiang Nansun from childhood to adulthood, under Yuan Xudong's deliberate guidance, everyone always laughed out loud and the atmosphere was joyful.
It was as if Yuan Xudong, who had just walked in, was already the grandson-in-law of the Jiang family. Only Jiang Nansun sat aside sulking, staring at Yuan Xudong who was trying to please her family, but she could do nothing about him.
Out of sight, out of mind, Jiang Nansun decided to go find her good sister, Zhu Suosuo, who had been playing with her since childhood, and take the documents entrusted to her by her aunt to Jingyan Group and hand them over to Ye Jinyan.
Thinking of this, she picked up her bag and briefcase and was about to leave. She wanted to sneak away when her family wasn't paying attention, but she didn't expect Jiang Pengfei to keep paying attention to her while chatting.
Seeing that his daughter wanted to sneak away, Jiang Pengfei thought she was going to see Zhang Anren. His face darkened and he said in an unhappy voice:
"What are you going to do?"
Since her father had discovered it, Jiang Nansun simply said openly:
"I'm going to go find Suosuo and hand over my aunt's documents to Ye Jinyan of Jingyan Group. Do you have any other questions?"
Without waiting for Jiang Pengfei to speak, Daisy, who was chatting with Yuan Xudong about the prospects of real estate, looked up at Jiang Nansun and said:
"Nansun, leave the documents to Xiao Yuan. When he goes to see Ye Jinyan, he can take them with him. This will save you and Suosuo from having to make a special trip!"
"don't want!"
Jiang Nansun glared at Yuan Xudong who was watching the fun, and then turned to leave. Jiang Pengfei quickly stopped her and said:
"Nansun, I have discussed this with your mother. Now that you have grown up, you should learn to live independently. Hand over the bank card and credit card your mother gave you. From now on, your family will only be responsible for your basic living expenses. If you want to buy any luxury goods, you can find a way to earn money yourself, or you can let Zhang Anren buy them for you!"
Hearing this, Jiang Nansun looked at her mother who was sitting not far away. Seeing her look of surprise, she knew that all this was an excuse made by her father Jiang Pengfei, who deliberately used her mother as a shield. She took out two bank cards and some cash from her bag, threw them on the coffee table, and said proudly:
"I'll give it all to you. I don't care about your money!"
After saying that, he turned around and left angrily. Mother Jiang looked worried. She was about to stand up to stop him, but Jiang Pengfei pulled her down and sat her down. He whispered something in her ear. Only then did Mother Jiang turn her worry into joy and feel relieved.
Yuan Xudong said goodbye at the right time:
"Grandma, aunt, uncle, aunt, you stay at home. I'm going to go see Nansun and come visit again next time!"
"Xiao Yuan, see you next time!"
"Xiao Yuan, remember to take good care of Nansun!"
"Xiao Yuan, if you have time, please go to Jingyan Group. I will greet Lao Ye in advance, and you can just go and see him directly!"
"Got it, Auntie!"
…
After saying goodbye to everyone, Yuan Xudong left the Jiang family villa and looked around on Fuxing Road. Not far away was a beautiful white figure. It was Jiang Nansun wearing a Givenchy dress.
He hurriedly chased after her and ran to Jiang Nansun. While looking at the angry Jiang Nansun, he walked backwards, keeping a distance from her, and said with a smile on his face:
"Beauty, where do you want to go?"
"Why, you wanna drive me?"
Jiang Nansun glared at the grinning Yuan Xudong, then deliberately looked around and said:
"Where is your car? Why can't I see it?"
Yuan Xudong shrugged his shoulders, took out 20,000 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Nansun:
"This is your medical expenses and compensation for your mental damage. Don't be in a hurry to refuse. You don't have a penny on you. Your life will be difficult in the future!"
"Who wants to refuse? I was promised that I would get it back!"
Jiang Nansun grabbed the 20,000 yuan and put it into her bag while looking at Yuan Xudong in confusion:
"Why were you so embarrassed yesterday?"
Hearing this, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Does the young lady look down on the poor? She actually uses a word like 'embarrassed' to describe them!"
"you……"
I didn't expect Yuan Xudong to say this about me. Jiang Nansun was speechless and could only say angrily:
"I'm not going to talk to you anymore, get out of the way!"
Yuan Xudong deliberately stood in front of Jiang Nansun, and while slowly backing away, he joked:
"Can you tell me about you and Zhang Anren?"
Seeing Yuan Xudong who was like a piece of taffy and couldn't be shaken off, Jiang Nansun deliberately provoked him:
"Zhang Anren and I are both first loves. He loves me and I love him too. Just give up on this idea. Even if you are the only man left in this world, I will not like you!"
"Are you Zhang Anren's first love?"
Yuan Xudong sneered and said with disdain:
"It's okay to be poor, but it's a problem if one has bad character. Since a rich lady like you likes Zhang Anren, it at least shows that he is a capable person. He even bought a house and settled down in Shanghai. Such people are rare in remote areas. How could there be no girls who like him?"
Jiang Nansun frowned and said in a cold voice:
"What do you mean?"
Yuan Xudong shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.
"It's nothing, I just don't believe that this is Zhang Anren's first love. He must be lying to you. I despise such a hypocrite the most. He doesn't even dare to admit such a small thing. He is too calculative and cares about his reputation. To use an idiom to describe him, he is sanctimonious!"

Interact with Jiang Nansun, and the heroine capture system starts...
Kind tips:
Jiang Nansun's favorability towards you is 20. The newly added favorability is -10. The existing favorability is positive. The system has rewarded funds and will not make any processing. Please be cautious when pursuing the heroine Jiang Nansun.
Hearing the system prompt, Yuan Xudong looked at Jiang Nansun with a cold expression and said:
"Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease; honest advice is unpleasant to the ear but is good for one's conduct. A person's character can be seen from some small things. You are blinded by love and cannot see the shortcomings hidden by Zhang Anren!"
Hearing this, Jiang Nansun stared at Yuan Xudong and said firmly:
"I do not believe!"

Serious cases require strong medicine. Yuan Xudong ignored the system warning and stared at Jiang Nansun.
"Would you like to make a bet?"
Jiang Nansun firmly believed that her boyfriend Zhang Anren would not cheat on her as Yuan Xudong said, and said confidently:
"What are you afraid of? Tell me, what are you betting on?"
The evil plan succeeded, and Yuan Xudong knew that he had won. Zhang Anren's real first love was his fellow villager, a rural girl named Yuan Yuan. Unfortunately, after Zhang Anren came to Shanghai and met Jiang Nansun, he abandoned her, and the two broke up peacefully.
I just don't know for what purpose Zhang Anren actually lied to Jiang Nansun and said that he had never had a girlfriend. Maybe he wanted to maintain his image as a pure and loyal good man in front of a rich girl like Jiang Nansun.
Unfortunately , he failed in the end. He was afraid that the bankrupt Jiang family would drag him down, which directly led to him and Jiang Nansun parting ways.
Yuan Xudong recalled the plot and said:
"If I lose, I'll grant you one request. Conversely, if you lose, you'll grant me one request. How about that?"
Jiang Nansun frowned slightly and said:
"Please be clear, what are your specific requirements?"
Yuan Xudong thought for a moment and said:
"I haven't thought about it yet. Don't you believe in Zhang Anren? If Zhang Anren didn't lie, you'll definitely win. You don't need to care about what I asked for!"
"good!"
Jiang Nansun nodded slightly and directly put forward her request:
"If I win, you have to apologize to Zhang Anren and never mention pursuing me again, how about that?"
"no problem!"
Yuan Xudong stretched out his right hand, motioning Jiang Nansun to stretch out her right hand as well. The two of them clapped their hands in pledge. Looking at the grinning Yuan Xudong, Jiang Nansun said unhappily:
"I'm going to see Suosuo now, please move aside!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xudong stepped back, stood aside, bowed, put his hands forward as if welcoming a guest, and said pompously:
"Go slowly, young lady!"
“Hmph~~”
Jiang Nansun snorted delicately and deliberately walked away arrogantly in front of Yuan Xudong, looking so naive and innocent, which made the latter's heart beat fast!
…
Vivian Spa, in a private room.
Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo lay side by side on two spa beds, with only a white silk scarf covering their backs, outlining their perfect curves. Their heads rested on their arms, their long hair scattered on one side, their shoulders exposed, their spring light flashing through their bodies as they moved, their white cleavage vaguely visible, so tempting!
The two looked at each other, and two female masseuses stood by to provide services. It was a complete maintenance package.
"Aren't you being too decisive? You are still studying for a doctorate and you can't work to earn money. How will you get the money to eat, drink, have fun and maintain yourself in the future?"
"Zhang Anren makes money, but there's not much for basic living expenses!"
"Can you just spend your basic living expenses? Do you know how much a spa treatment here costs?"
"I still have money in my card. I won't come here again after I use it up. Love is the key to success!"
"Those are all made up by men to trick young girls!"
"You are blinded by greed!"
"As for me, I am living under someone else's roof! I tell you, my dreams now are that Luo Jiaming proposes to me, I reject him, he is heartbroken, his mother kicks me out, and then I become homeless and live on the streets!"
"It's okay. If that day ever comes, you can come stay at my house anytime!"
"Isn't that still living under someone else's roof? I just want to find a rich boyfriend who can buy me a house, preferably in the city, so I can have my own home!"
"vulgar!"
"You are living in a blessed situation but don't know how to appreciate it. You have never experienced the life of a poor person!"
"Since you want to find a rich boyfriend so badly, would you like me to introduce one to you? He's from a very wealthy family, the kind that gives you hundreds of millions of pocket money easily, and he's also very handsome, like a big star, but his shortcoming is that he's very shameless!"
"You have such great resources? How come I don't know about it?"
"His name is Yuan Xudong. I just met him not long ago. He pursued me relentlessly and even came to my house for dinner today. Did you see that white dress? It was a gift from him. He has good taste!"
"Yuan Xudong? Is he the one you drove into the hospital with your car?"
"Yes, you know him?"
"He is Luo Jiaming's colleague. Last night he told me that he fell in love at first sight and immediately pursued you. The point is that he clearly knew that we were good friends, so why did he dare to play both of us?"
"I'm so pissed off. He even said that Zhang Anren was a hypocritical hypocrite. It turns out that he is the real hypocrite!"
"I think he's such a mean person, he doesn't care at all if we find out he's cheating on me!"
"Neptune!"
"Master of time management!"
"Do you still want?"
"For the sake of hundreds of millions of pocket money, I will give him another chance. My Nansun is so beautiful, no wonder he couldn't control himself!"
"You are totally hopeless!"
…
At the same time, Park Hyatt Hotel River View Room.
Yuan Xudong was studying the stocks held by Jiang Pengfei. At this time, the market index had already broken through 5150 points, with the highest being 5178 points. It was like rowing against the current, if you don't move forward you will fall behind, and the market index could not break through 5200 points.
With the help of several over-the-counter financing companies and exclusive stock brokers, Yuan Xudong used the 300 million yuan in funds to leverage 3 billion yuan in short selling.
In addition to the stocks held by Jiang Pengfei, he also shorted the overall market index and several index components that had seen huge gains, because a few companies could not accommodate the 3 billion margin lending quota.
There is also 48.5 million in cash in the account, which serves as a deposit as well as for daily expenses and interest payments.
If the stock market continues to rise by 10%, Yuan Xudong's 300 million yuan of capital will disappear, and he may even be burdened with huge debts, so he set a stop loss point in advance. If the market breaks through 5250 points, he will immediately close his position and leave the market to control the loss within an acceptable range.
To a certain extent, this approach has an element of gambling in it. The fundamental reason is that this world is exactly the same as the original world, and he believes that the stock trend will be the same.
5200 points is an unbreakable curse, and the market will fall below 3000 points within three months.
The reason why he set 5250 points as the stop loss position was that he was afraid that fate would play a little joke on him, and he added 50 points as a buffer. Success or failure depends on this one move. If he wins, his fate is in his own hands. If he loses, he will cling to the system and continue to please the two heroines.
To sum up, Yuan Xudong has nothing to fear.

What's happening here?
Did Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo show their cards to each other?
Yuan Xudong was dumbfounded, he knew it would be like this, this crappy system made him please the heroines and play with two women at the same time, the key point was that the two heroines were like sisters, wasn't this making things difficult for him?
Looking at the ups and downs of the stock market, Yuan Xudong made up his mind that men should focus on their careers, while women would only make themselves physically weak.
If you bloom, butterflies will come!
