The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1175

[Chapter 1175 Jiang San in the exchange]

Zhao Yan watched the manager take out a pile of banknotes and buy dividends.

Then I saw cinnabar red finally appearing between the black brands.

Precisely because of the existence of this cinnabar red, the dividend did not continue to fall.

Or maybe the decline is not as fast as before.

When Zhao Yan saw this scene, the expression on her face became a little strange.

She never thought that what Fang Xiu said was actually true.

Didn’t expect

Fang Xiu to be so kind?

Except for the word kindness, Zhao Yan didn’t know what words to use to describe him for a while.

Standing in the exchange, after hesitating for a moment, she finally made a decision.

Leave this exchange for now.

The exchange didn’t seem to be a good fit for someone like her.

Taking one last look at the brands in front of her, she gritted her teeth and left the exchange.

At the same time, there were still thousands of people standing inside the exchange.

Everyone puts all their attention on the price of the dividend and pays attention to the rise and fall of the price all the time.

Many people’s eyes were red and bloodshot.

Everything they have is in this exchange. Once they leave the exchange, they have nothing.

In other words, they were nothing from the beginning, and this transaction made them feel that they were still of some use.

Jiang San is one of them.

Before entering the exchange, he was just an ordinary road construction worker.

I can earn a lot of money every month, but I also spend it all.

Because he came here from other states, he had no support and was like a duckweed floating on the water.

Just renting the residence cost him more than half of his salary every month.

But the exchange brought him a completely different life.

He still remembers how he walked into the exchange with five taels of silver, and how he left the exchange with one hundred taels of silver.

In just over half a month, he used five taels of silver to earn one hundred taels of silver.

It’s like a dream.

Even things that I never dared to dream about happened in reality.

not only that.

In the next few months, although he lost some money on this exchange, he still made most of it.

Moreover, the money earned is far more than the money lost.

Just half a month ago, he already had nearly one thousand taels of silver on him.

One thousand taels of silver!

What a concept!

In the past, even if he kept farming without eating or drinking, he might not be able to earn so much money in one hundred, two hundred, or even three hundred years.

Now, in just half a year, he has earned so much money.

Therefore, he took all his wife and children back home to Kyoto Prefecture.

He bought new clothes for his wife and children, and took them to Zuihua Pavilion for a good meal.

Even after earning so much money, this was the first time for him to go to a restaurant.

He still remembers how delicious those meals were.

But

one thousand taels of silver is a lot less, but it is not a lot even if it is a lot.

In a place like Kyoto Prefecture, it is impossible to buy a mansion that is large enough to accommodate three people without looking crowded for one thousand taels of silver.

Especially in a place like the south of the city, the worst mansion starts at two thousand taels of silver.

What’s more, he has to put his money in the exchange to earn more money.

Therefore, he could only rent a larger mansion in the north of the city, and the monthly rent was five taels of silver.

Don’t underestimate these five taels of silver. In the past, it would have taken him two to three months to earn it even if he didn’t eat or drink.

If he was building roads, he could earn it in a month, but that was all. If the money was used to rent a house, he would have to think about what to eat.

However, it is different now.

These five taels of silver were nothing to him.

As long as there is silver, silver can be turned into more silver.

Therefore, he only left one hundred taels of silver for family expenses.

The remaining nine hundred taels of silver are still left in the exchange.

He always believed that as long as nothing unexpected happened, he could earn more than one thousand taels.

But who would have thought?

In just a few days, as long as I was on the exchange, all I saw was black, and no matter what the dividends were, they were all falling.

Everyone seems to think that as long as they can sell their dividends quickly, they will make money!

Jiang San didn’t believe that the exchange would become like this several times. Everyone else was selling dividends, and he was also selling dividends.

But after selling the dividends, he quickly bought them back. In his opinion, the dividends will rise sooner or later. As long as he grits his teeth and perseveres, he can definitely wait until the dividends rise again. !

For several days, he stayed in the exchange. If there was a slight change in the price of dividends, he would react immediately.

but?

what’s the result?

As a result, the price of the dividends has dropped again and again, and dropped again and again. To this day, his dividends, originally worth nine hundred taels of silver, can only be sold for more than a hundred taels at most.

Even others who didn’t do anything and just wanted to sell themselves for dividends got much more money than him.

For a moment, he felt that everything was despairing, and everything in front of him was shrouded in darkness.

There is no hope in life.

But

in a daze, he remembered himself half a year ago.

At that time, I only had a few taels of silver a month, and I had to build roads every day until my back ached and I couldn’t move. How could I live a good life?

Now, although I have lost so much money, I am still better off than before.

Thinking of this, I felt a little better.

Jiang San raised his eyes and glanced at the dividend sign, gritted his teeth, and finally decided not to stay here any longer.

He gritted his teeth and left the exchange.

He knows that the exchange is like this now. No matter what you do, dividends will fall.

In this case, just ignore him and come back when the dividend price rises again.

At that time, you may not be able to earn money, but you won’t lose so much money.

What you have to do now is to persevere and persevere until the end, and you will be able to see the light of day!

He walked out of the exchange door, looked at the sunshine outside, and took a deep breath.

He stretched out his hand to stop a rickshaw.

However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he thought of his current situation, gritted his teeth, and did not stop after all.

Instead, he walked to the sign on the side and waited quietly.

There are carriages going to and from other places in the south of the city every day. A dozen or even dozens of people are crowded on a carriage. Although it is a little tiring and hard, it is cheap.

Often one penny or two penny is enough.

Jiang San looked at the rickshaws coming and going and was in a daze for a moment.

He didn’t know what he should do now.
