Chapter 10: Going to make a fortune(1/2)
Lin Fang didn't say much to his brother, especially the matter of stock subscription certificates. He didn't even mention it.
This matter is not to mention Lin Jiangang, a rural boy who has never heard of the word stock. Even the knowledgeable experts and professors in Shanghai universities may not necessarily agree with Lin Fang's approach.
That's tens of thousands. I guess the word prodigal is not enough to express how despised this behavior is.
So Lin Fang simply didn’t say anything!
"I'm going to take the money out this time. Just know this yourself. Don't mention it to anyone. Just pretend it's nothing. Our mother has never seen so much money. She will be frightened if she finds out."
It will be remembered by many people!”
Of course Lin Jiangang understood this, and he remembered it just by mentioning it.
Lin Xingxin was also slightly amused. He originally thought that with so much money, he would at least not be short of money for the time being, but he didn't expect that after only a few days, he felt that the money was still too little.
If he could have thought of the stock subscription certificate earlier, he might not have to come back from the factory and go directly to Shanghai, saving his family the worry!
The 3,000 yuan given to my mother is equivalent to one hundred stock subscription certificates, and it can be multiplied many times in a short time.
But the money has been given away, and he can't ask for it back, otherwise it will be more troublesome to explain.
After thinking about it for a while, I still have more than 4,800 left on hand, a total of 16 books and 1,600 photos, which is quite a lot!
"Forget it, this starting point is already very high!"
Lin Fang finally gave up the idea of continuing to make money!
After all, the money you make by reselling the stock call warrants is only a small amount of money. What's more important is that you make money by buying stocks after winning the lottery.
Compared with the situation of my father in the previous life, I am already doing very well now.
Lin Fang felt calm now that he had made a decision in his heart.
He raised his hand and patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Let's go home and tell mom that I have to go out today!"
Lin Jiangang was stunned: "So urgent?"
Lin Fang nodded: "Well, let's go check out the situation first so we can make plans!"
At 7:30 in the morning, the sky began to light up slightly. People in the village who got up early started to go out, and it became lively with the crowing of chickens and the barking of dogs.
When I got home, my mother Lu Yuxiu had already gotten up to clean up and make breakfast, and my sister Lin Jianmei was cleaning the yard with a broom. When they saw the two brothers coming back, they were both a little curious.
"You two can run out so early in the morning, you don't mind the cold!"
Lin Fang smiled and said: "Get up early and exercise, it's good for your health!"
Lu Yuxiu glanced at them and shook her head: "It's a cold day, why do you exercise? Don't catch a cold!"
While his mother was cooking, he hurriedly found a needle and thread and unused fabric scissors from his mother's room, then crookedly sewed a pocket on the left and right sides of his thermal underwear, and then put all the 48,000 yuan in it.
There was more than 700 remaining pocket money left.
You can't ask anyone to do this, you can only do it yourself.
He had heard of people putting money in their underwear, but he gave up after thinking about it.
Not to mention whether it is safe or not, just imagining the feeling makes me feel sick!
After breakfast, Lin Fang told his mother that he was going out, but the excuse was that he suddenly remembered that there was an important job that had not been completed in the factory, and he had to go back and finish it, otherwise it would delay the entire factory's production!
Although Lu Yuxiu was not happy after hearing this, she did not dare to delay her son's work, so she could only agree.
In this way, Lin Fang went to Xishan City that day.
He didn't bring anything extra. He only carried a schoolbag he brought back from the dormitory, which contained two changes of clothes and toiletries.
He didn't even wear his military coat, and left it to his brother along with his locomotive hat and radio.
Xishan City is still lively. It may have been very meaningful to Lin Jianqiang back then, but for Lin Fang, it was just a transit station.
Shanghai in the early 1990s still retains some of the atmosphere of the old era. Compared with its later prosperity, the Shili Foreign Market in this state probably has more charm.
At five o'clock in the morning on January 21, 1992, an exhausted Lin Fang finally arrived at the Shanghai Railway Station.
After being squeezed all the way down, his clothes, which originally looked decent, had become sloppy, his face was greasy, and his hair was unkempt.
Seeing that it was still dark and cold outside, Lin Fang simply took a nap in the waiting hall of the train station.
When he woke up, he found that it was already broad daylight and hurried out of the train station.
In fact, it was just 7:30 in the morning. Lin Fang hurriedly ran out of the train station and found a breakfast stall. He drank some soy milk and ate two fried dough sticks. He also bought six steamed buns and stuffed them into his schoolbag.
Leave quickly.
It was almost past eight o'clock, and Lin Fang couldn't remember the hot scene of queuing up to buy subscription certificates!
Seeing a taxi passing by, he hurriedly stopped one, but was shocked when he asked the price.
One word: expensive!
He came here with hard seats on the train, and it's so shameful to waste money on something like this when he's already here.
So, he could only close the door in embarrassment under the disdainful gaze of the taxi driver, then step back and watch the taxi driver leave.
Lin Fang could only persuade himself that in order to make money, he had to find another way.
Then you can only open your mouth and ask!
"Brother, you know..."
Lin Fang quickly grabbed a passing man and asked.
But before he could finish his words, he was frightened back by the man's angry gaze.
"I'm fifty-one years old, and you, a little brat, call me big brother? Are you looking for trouble?"
The northeastern accent had a loud voice. Lin Fang was so frightened that he quickly apologized and backed away, his forehead covered with black lines.
He was too anxious and didn't look at his age clearly, so he almost got beaten when he opened his mouth.
After walking for a while, he continued to ask.
"Sister, may I ask, where can I buy the stock subscription certificate? Is there a sales outlet nearby?"
"What evidence? I've never heard of it!"
"I..." Lin Fang was choked and speechless.
How come you don’t know about such a big thing? He was a little confused.
Keep asking.
I turned around and asked a bunch of people again, but unfortunately, most people didn't know about it.
Lin Fang was immediately dumbfounded. If it weren't for the fact that many store plaques had the words "Shanghai City" written on them, he would have thought that he had landed at the wrong stop.
He scratched his head, feeling that something was wrong.
Then someone who doesn’t know where the sales point is but has heard of it, especially some older women, will kindly remind him: “Oh, another person who was deceived by the slogan, let me tell you, that thing
It’s a lie. It’s not easy for young people to earn a salary, so don’t waste your money, you know?”
Lin Fang was a little confused.
"How could it be? This is issued by the state!"
“Ouch, it’s only thirty yuan a piece, you’re stealing money!
And after buying it, you have to wait for a long time to draw the number. Isn’t the drawing the lottery?
How many stocks have been released this year? How many people do you think you can win?
If it can't be shaken, isn't it equivalent to spending thirty yuan on a piece of waste paper? It's just that wide, and it's not even enough to wipe your butt. Are you saying it's a lie? Do you know?
A relative of mine bought it yesterday morning, and the whole family got into a fuss in the afternoon!"
As he spoke, he gestured with his finger to indicate the width of the note.
"Young man, my aunt is telling you, it is said that these subscription certificates will be donated to welfare institutions. This is obviously to defraud money! Do you understand?"
"……understood!"
Lin Fang was stunned for a moment, and then watched the other party leave in the excitement of dissuading a person who was about to be deceived.
He suddenly wanted to laugh, it turned out that he was worrying too much.
This is Shanghai in January, not Shenzhen in August. No one has seen the power of the subscription certificate, and no one understands the value of this subscription certificate.
His previous worry about not being able to buy it was completely unnecessary!
He finally came to his senses, because there were only a few stocks issued by the Shanghai Stock Exchange since its opening. They were too few and it was basically difficult for ordinary people to buy them.
Now we have to draw lots to determine the purchase qualifications. At first glance, this is indeed an event with a very low probability of winning.
But no one realized the country's determination to promote the development of the securities industry, and they did not expect that the country would issue more than 50 stocks this year, and investors would have to fight in the secondary market from now on.
Under the influence of leverage, there are too many people who can buy later!
If it weren't for God's perspective, Lin Fang would never have thought of this. He could only admire the blessings of the times!
Moreover, everyone's wages are generally very low at this time. Thirty yuan is definitely not a small sum of money in any household. It does take courage to spend it to buy a subscription certificate that may be useless paper.
Therefore, the sales data of subscription certificates this time are definitely not ideal, which will lead to an extremely high winning rate and a super high rate of return, and ultimately, this magical moment in history!
