“Reward Intel: On Monday, Fudi Battery will announce the mass production of its revolutionary solid-state battery. Its stock price will surge, hitting consecutive daily limits. Entering at the right time will yield an 8-fold return within one month.”
Lin Yang couldn't help but smile when he saw this intel.
Stock market intel was precisely what he urgently needed. He had probably been busy looking for a stock advisor all morning and, coincidentally, had such in-depth contact with Chen Qingqing, which triggered the reward, leading him to receive this valuable stock market intel.
An 8-fold return within one month—such an astonishing rate of return would likely be unbelievable if spoken aloud.
Lin Yang currently had nearly one hundred million in his card, and the news of the Jinling Community housing demolition would be announced next week, at which point he would receive another fifty million in demolition compensation.
Calculated, he would have a principal of one hundred fifty million. If, as the intel stated, he achieved an 8-fold return in one month, that would be 1.2 billion.
Fortunately, he had found Hu Qian, a professional stock advisor, to manage such a large-scale fund operation.
Otherwise, it would not only consume a lot of his energy but also potentially lead to losses due to various unexpected situations.
After all, stock advisors like Hu Qian had a professional team behind them to assist with their work, whereas he, alone, would likely be overwhelmed and neglectful. Professional matters should be handled by professionals; Lin Yang was very clear about this.
Just as Lin Yang was immersed in the surprise and contemplation brought by the intel, Zhang Jun suddenly called out, “Sister-in-law,” which pulled him back to reality.
Hearing this address, Chen Qingqing instantly let go of Lin Yang’s arm as if she had been shocked, a blush rising on her face. She said to Lin Yang apologetically,
“I’m really sorry for pulling you out to be a shield without your permission.
Don’t worry, I’ll handle the follow-up matters.”
Lin Yang smiled and shook his head, saying,
“It’s alright, we’re old classmates. Helping each other is only natural.”
When Chen Qingqing heard the words “old classmates,” she felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
She didn't understand what was wrong with her.
However, after what just happened, she was already not in the mood.
After apologizing to Lin Yang again, she turned and left.
Watching Chen Qingqing’s retreating figure, Zhang Jun leaned closer to Lin Yang with a curious expression and asked,
“Brother Yang, what exactly is your relationship with that beautiful woman?
Is she really not your girlfriend?”
Lin Yang smiled helplessly and explained,
“She’s really not. I just helped her out of a predicament.”
Zhang Jun looked regretful and pouted, saying,
“She’s so pretty. It’s a shame she’s not sister-in-law.”
“Alright, let’s go.”
At this moment, Hu Qian urged from the side.
So, Lin Yang, Hu Qian, and Zhang Jun continued to follow the waiter towards the private room.
Upon entering the private room, Hu Qian skillfully asked Lin Yang if he had any dietary restrictions, then confidently ordered several signature dishes.
After ordering, she handed the menu to Lin Yang and said enthusiastically,
“See if there’s anything else you’d like to eat. Feel free to order; it’s my treat today.”
Lin Yang didn't stand on ceremony. He took the menu and looked at it carefully.
He had long heard that West Lake Restaurant was expensive, but the moment he actually opened the menu, he was still shocked by the prices.
Bean sprouts, which cost only two yuan per jin outside, were sold here for 2888 per serving, and were given a beautiful name— “Fiery Trees and Silver Flowers.”
This was just the most common ingredient. Those ingredients that were already precious were several times more expensive on the West Lake Restaurant’s dining table.
The few dishes Hu Qian had casually ordered would easily cost more than ten thousand yuan.
Lin Yang secretly clicked his tongue in amazement. West Lake Restaurant truly lived up to its reputation; the prices were incredibly high.
Seeing that there were enough dishes, Lin Yang casually ordered the cheapest green tea, priced at 888 per pot.
Soon, the tea and dishes were served one after another.
Each dish was exquisitely presented like a work of art, pleasing to the eye and making one reluctant to disturb its beauty with chopsticks.
To Lin Yang’s surprise, one of the dishes was indeed bean sprouts, none other than the highly priced “Fiery Trees and Silver Flowers.”
When the waiter served the dish, he specifically paused in front of “Fiery Trees and Silver Flowers,” a professional smile on his face, and began to explain the origin of the dish in detail:
“Distinguished guests, Fiery Trees and Silver Flowers is our restaurant’s signature dish. It is made by hollowing out organic bean sprouts, then stuffing them with black pork, and then meticulously cooked by our top chefs.
This dish is not only extremely particular in its ingredient selection, but the cooking process is even more complex and intricate, requiring the chef to possess superb skills and rich experience to perfectly blend the tenderness of the bean sprouts with the rich flavor of the black pork, creating this unique delicacy.”
Lin Yang looked at the seemingly ordinary yet remarkably valuable bean sprouts in front of him and couldn’t help but sigh. The luxury of West Lake Restaurant was not only reflected in the price of the dishes but also in the meticulous craftsmanship and unique creativity put into each one.
Lin Yang listened to the waiter’s introduction while thoughtfully savoring the food.
The moment the food entered his mouth, he felt it was worth it.
He could confidently say he had never eaten such delicious bean sprouts; the meat filling and bean sprouts were perfectly combined.
The crispy texture allowed him to taste the aroma of meat, a very wonderful experience.
Indeed, there was a reason for its high price. There was a reason this restaurant could stay in business despite its high prices.
After all, rich people weren't foolish. If the prices were high and the taste was poor, they wouldn't come a second time.
Hu Qian saw Lin Yang’s expression of enjoyment and nodded with satisfaction.
“It’s good that Mr. Lin is enjoying the meal.”
Lin Yang smiled:
“I should thank Manager Hu for the treat, allowing me to taste such a delicacy.”
Suddenly, Lin Yang thought of the stock market matter.
Originally, his plan was to transfer the money to Hu Qian’s account after the demolition compensation was received.
However, now that he had received the intel, waiting any longer would likely mean missing an opportunity.
So he took out his phone and transferred ninety million to that account, keeping a few million for emergencies.
“Manager Hu, I just transferred ninety million into the account. The remaining ten million will have to wait until next week.”
Hu Qian didn't understand why Lin Yang suddenly transferred money at this time. The original agreement was to transfer one hundred million next week, but now ninety million had suddenly been transferred.
“Is there something urgent?”
As she was thinking, her phone received a message.
“Customer Lin Yang’s account…7512 received a transfer of 90,000,000 from Xingcheng Bank. Account balance: 90,000,000.”
Hu Qian was stunned when she saw the amount.
Good heavens, it really was ninety million.
“Oh my goodness, ninety million, it’s really ninety million. It was transferred so easily.”
Hu Qian’s expression changed, filled with shock.
A person in his twenties, with no rich second-generation background, was actually going to invest one hundred million in the stock market.
“Mr. Lin, is there something urgent that you transferred the money so quickly?”
Lin Yang nodded:
“That’s right, I already have a target.”
