Chapter 476 Left Eye Twitching
October 19th is four days away. Well, two days to be exact, since it’s not open on the weekends. Thinking about Nie Zhan's previous statement that he had a sum of money in America, although he didn't know how much it was, he wouldn't talk about it due to his temperament.
After washing, Lu Jiaxin went to bed. Seeing that Nie Zhan was still reading the financial news, she couldn't help but put the newspaper away and said, "It's very late, it's time to go to bed."
Nie Zhan looked at her with surprise, then quickly turned off the light.
Lu Jiaxin knew that he had misunderstood, so she quickly moved to the bed and asked, "You sold all the stocks, how much money did you get back?"
Nie Zhan would have told her before, but after she went crazy and shorted the Dow Jones Index and Hang Seng Index, now Lu Jiaxin's heart became anxious when she mentioned money.
"Not much, why do you ask?"
Lu Jiaxin stared at him and said, "Why, are you still guarding me?"
Nie Zhan didn't mince words and said, "I won't stop you from going short, but you can't let me go with you. It's too risky. Once the position is liquidated, all your hard work will be in vain."
Nie Zhan strongly disagreed with her gambling-like behavior. He couldn't stop it, he could only ensure that he wouldn't participate.
Lu Jiaxin pointed to her left eyelid and said, "My eyelid has been twitching these past two days. There is a saying in our hometown that if the left eye twitches, wealth will twitch and the right eye will twitch disaster. My left eyelid has been twitching today, which means that I want to Made a fortune."
Nie Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked: "You said these are feudal superstitions and cannot be believed, so why do you still believe them?"
Lu Jiaxin denied his statement: "This is not feudal superstition, it is the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors thousands of years ago. I have a hunch that the stock market will have a big shock in the next few days."
How could Nie Zhan believe this kind of rhetoric: "Stop making trouble, it's getting late, let's go to bed early."
Lu Jiaxin thought for a moment and changed her mind: "Nie Zhan, let's make a bet. If I win the bet, you are not allowed to stop me from making any investments in the future; if I lose the bet, I will listen to you no matter what investments you make in the future. If you don’t agree, I won’t do it.”
"Are you serious?"
"If you don't believe it, I can write you a letter of guarantee. If you don't do it in the future, you can just take out the letter of guarantee."
When talking about this, Nie Zhan asked: "What bet?"
"You lend me that deposit from Amerika to short the Dow Jones Index, using 25 times leverage." Lu Jiaxin said.
With a leverage of 25 times, if the market rises by 3%, the position will be liquidated, which is nearly three times greater than the previous leverage of 10 times. Unless you are absolutely sure, it is just giving away money.
Thinking of what happened before, Nie Zhan asked: "Jiaxin, you used all your money to short the Green Coin/Japanese Yen, did you rely on intuition?"
Lu Jiaxin's heart skipped a beat. This was too sharp: "Yes. My left eye kept twitching at that time, so I thought it was an opportunity, so I took a gamble, and I won."
Nie Zhan was silent for a while and then said: "I can lend you 50 million green coins to short the Dow Jones Index with 25 times leverage. But I don't want a commitment letter. I want you to promise me one thing."
"What's going on?"
"Whether you win or lose, you have to agree."
Lu Jiaxin had a bad premonition: "What do you want to say first?"
"We will get engaged when you graduate."
Lu Jiaxin glared at him angrily, and this guy actually took advantage of her: "I will graduate from college next year, and getting engaged at 20 is too early."
Nie Zhan looked hurt: "Jiaxin, haven't you ever thought about getting engaged to me?"
Lu Jiaxin never thought about breaking up, but she also didn't want to be trapped so early: "If I don't agree to what you mean, you won't lend money?"
Nie Zhan is not a fool, so how could he say something like this: "No, if you don't agree, I will lend you money to short-sell you. We're just engaged, so I'm not afraid that you won't want me."
After speaking, he showed a pitiful expression. The two of them have been dating for such a long time, and he has figured out Jia Xin's temperament. Of course, the decision is whether to take soft or hard advice.
Lu Jiaxin knew that he was pretending, but he was willing to back it up for himself, and now he was willing to spend such a large sum of money to gamble with her. It was very rare: "Then you can arrange for someone to buy it tomorrow. As for the engagement, we can wait until I go to college Let’s talk after graduation.”
When she mentioned getting engaged in the past, she always said we would talk about it after she was twenty-five. Now I am willing to discuss it after I graduate from college, and I have already taken a step back.
Nie Zhan knew that he had to take his time and not rush, otherwise he would scare people away: "Okay, I will listen to you."
That voice was as gentle as water dripping from it.
Lu Jiaxin kissed her, and soon the sound of gasping could be heard in the room. It's just that Nie Zhan's physical strength is too good, and he wants to do it again if one time is not enough.
You can play around with me on the weekend, but you can't because you have to go to school tomorrow. Lu Jiaxin pushed him away: "You have to get up early tomorrow, so go to bed!"
After saying that, he put on his pajamas and went into the bathroom to take a shower. Nie Zhan wanted to go in and found that the door was locked. When he finished taking a shower and went to bed, he found that Lu Jiaxin had fallen asleep. It had to be said that this sleep was really good.
As soon as Nie Zhan went to work the next day, he made an overseas phone call and was shocked to receive a piece of news from the other party. After thinking for a moment, he immediately asked someone to short the Dow Jones Index.
There were 80 million in the account, but Nie Zhan still bought 50 million, leaving 30 million in the account.
After returning to the apartment after school, Lu Jiaxin saw Nie Zhan at home. She asked curiously: "Aren't you busy lately? Why did you get off work so early today?"
Nie Zhan pulled Lu Jiaxin into the room and said to her in a low voice: "I just got the news that the American stock god is selling his stocks."
When he got the news, he was shocked and thought that Jiaxin might win the bet this time. You know, he didn't expect it before. But even if he thought she would make money, Nie Zhan was still unwilling to take risks. There can be no mistakes in 17% of the shares, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
The stock god Buffett, as long as you are exposed to financial knowledge, everyone knows him. But he sold his stocks before Black Monday, which Lu Jiaxin didn't know.
Lu Jiaxin asked: "Then do you want to short with me?"
Nie Zhan refused. Jiaxin's gamble was already very dangerous, so he had to play it safe: "It's good that you know about this, don't tell others."
Lu Jiaxin didn't ask where he got the news from, but one thing was certain, Nie Zhan's connections were really powerful. And this was exactly what she lacked, so the two complemented each other.
Seeing that she agreed so straightforwardly, Nie Zhan was not used to it: "You can say a few words to Su Heyuan and let him sell the stocks."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said: "No need, he sold all the stocks on Monday, and then shorted the Hang Seng Index with a 10x leverage like me."
Nie Zhan said nothing. He himself did not want to be so radical, and he could not stop others from taking risks with Jiaxin to make a lot of money.
