Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Chapter 625 A Life of Cheating

When Lou Xiao'e came to this point, she stopped to drink a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and then continued quietly:

“Although the stock market was still very hot at the time, stock prices were still rising wildly.

But I think you reminded me that in 1973, I must exit the market at a high level, so I insisted on clearing out all my shares. Sure enough, the stock market crash occurred not long after that. Many people lost all their money overnight. People jumped off buildings every day. Many people died. At that time, many companies had invested all their funds in the stock market and could not sell them, so they had to go bankrupt. There were also many businessmen who lost their fortunes in stock trading due to loans. Some jumped into the sea, some hanged themselves, and some jumped off buildings. It was really tragic!

My dad was really scared and thought I was so amazing. He almost treated me as a living god who could predict the stock market crash. He kept asking me how I predicted it.

I didn't tell my dad either. You told me all this. I just said that I found out the clues from various signs. My dad always said that I was amazing and that he would let me make the decisions on the Lou family's investments in the future.

But I think you might be a god who came down to earth specifically to save our family!

Later, my father simply handed the family business over to me, and I listened to him. After the stock market crash, I invested the money I earned from the stock market in the real estate industry. One was to acquire land, and the other was to acquire real estate projects.

Due to the stock market crash, some real estate tycoons went bankrupt overnight. In order to recover their funds, they had to sell the land or properties they had.

During that period, most of the money in Hong Kong was invested in the stock market. Their land and buildings could not be sold at all. In order to recover funds, they had to lower the prices again and again. My family used the money earned from the stock market to acquire a large amount of land and buildings. In recent years, we have become the leader in the real estate industry in Hong Kong! We really made a lot of money!

Later, my father talked to me and asked me how I could grasp the opportunities in the stock market and real estate industry so keenly. I told them that it was you who reminded me when I left Beijing! That’s how I was able to grasp the opportunities in the stock market and real estate industry in time, and led the Lou family to become one of the few wealthy families in Hong Kong.

At first, my father didn't believe that you could have anticipated these things. He thought I was deliberately flattering you. Later, I showed him the note you secretly put in my pocket. After reading it, he was shocked and almost thought you were a god!

It was then that my father realized that you were the greatest benefactor of my family. If it weren’t for you, my family would have been broken up by now. Even if we had managed to escape to Hong Kong during that storm, we would have been seriously injured and would have been unable to recover.

Moreover, you also helped me to predict the business opportunities in the Hong Kong stock market and real estate industry in advance. It can be said that you are the one who has contributed the most to everything my family has now.

My dad later remembered that when you were persuading us to leave, you also said that this storm would only last about ten years at most, and that we would be able to come back after the wind died down. Not only did I believe it, but my dad also believed it.

My dad said that the reason why my family has achieved what it has today and can make so much money is that you should have a share of my family's assets! He took the initiative to propose that he would give you 10% of the shares of our group company, thinking that he would give the shares to you after the mainland wind stopped!

You were right. This storm only lasted for ten years. In recent years, our country has put things right and made the decision to reform and open up. We were very happy to hear the news in Hong Kong and have been looking for an opportunity to return.

Now I heard that the mainland has reformed and opened up, and has started to strengthen its ties with Hong Kong and relax its travel policies. So I applied to come back as an investor and take a look!

After I came back, I went to No. 95 Courtyard where you used to live. I heard that you had moved out. Many elderly people in the courtyard had moved out, including Xu Damao, Sha Zhu, Yan Bugui, and others! You all sold your houses and changed owners!

Fortunately, there are two old people from the former courtyard house. They told me that you are now a famous boss in Sijiu City and opened Dingxin Catering Co., Ltd. They sent me to you, and finally I found you! "

After listening to Lou Xiao'e's brief narration, Lin Geng basically understood the general experience of Lou Xiao'e and her family after they arrived in Hong Kong.

So Lin Geng sighed, listening to Lou Xiao'e's flattery, and felt a little embarrassed. He touched his nose awkwardly and nodded, "I'm not as powerful as you say. I'm not a god who can predict the future! I can't even predict what's happening in Hong Kong. In fact, I... that... I also met a master at the beginning, and I helped him a little. He told me, but unfortunately, he disappeared after the wind started!

Including the wind, it was he who told me, so I warned your family in advance. As for the stock market and real estate industry in Hong Kong, he also told me about it. I was skeptical, but after you go to Hong Kong, I might as well let you try!

Now it seems that the master was not talking nonsense. As long as you are fine, I won’t worry! Haha! "

Lin Geng started to make up lies with his eyes wide open, found a lame excuse and gave a forced explanation. After he finished, he himself felt that his lie was not very convincing. After he finished, he looked at Lou Xiao'e with a guilty look.

Lou Xiao'e's eyes flickered a few times, and she obviously didn't believe the authenticity of the master that Lin Geng mentioned, so she rolled her eyes at Lin Geng, which made Lin Geng's heart flutter when he saw Lou Xiao'e. He quickly gathered his thoughts and didn't dare to think too much. Fortunately, Lou Xiao'e didn't continue to dwell on this matter, breaking the casserole to ask about the non-existent so-called master, but changed the subject and asked Lin Geng: "What about you? How have you been these years?"

Lin Geng smiled and pointed to his current office, then said to Lou Xiaoe: "You can see that I am doing pretty well now! At least in Beijing, I am considered a wealthy man! Of course, it is definitely not comparable to your family's current assets!"

Lou Xiaoe laughed: "This is indeed incomparable. I know what the situation was like in the mainland before. No matter how capable you are, you can't do business. It's only been a short time since the reform and opening up, and you can do such a big business and own such a large chain restaurant company. It's already amazing!

Even if we were to do it, in such a short time, even if all of us were to do it, we probably wouldn't be able to do it as well as you do! You don't have to underestimate yourself!

What's more, we are partners now, and you own 20% of our group company, so if you want to say it, you are now a millionaire!"
