Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 80 The Gnawing Economy
Gossip is also a major theme in student life.

This group of people study and live together every day. We can't just talk about study after class, right?
Li Yan: Why not baby? Learning is so wonderful!
Therefore, gossip chat is definitely not without entertainment content.

You can gossip about anything, whether it is true or not is not important.

If everyone thinks it is true, then it is true. It is useless even if the real owner comes out to prove it.

If they say you two are dating, then you two are dating. Don't jump out to stop everyone from shipping them.

In the same way, if you say you have money, you will just go out to beg on the streets and you will just be experiencing life.

The gossip and the real subject, like human sorrow and joy, are unconnected.

While Li Yan was fighting the economic monster in his dream, his image was rapidly rising in the gossip of his roommates.

"Think about it, when we talk about the economic crisis, he helps us understand it from a logical perspective."

"He also read books on economics! I only read about it online. This stuff is too far away from us. If you are not rich enough, who would read it?"

"I've said it before, badminton is a sport that costs a lot of money. All the high-level players have achieved their goals by spending a lot of money."

"He didn't have a cell phone, so he pulled out a computer."

“What kind of family is willing to spend money, but also limits spending?”

"He's so rich that he must be restrained!"

"I heard from other students last time that he saw Li Yan when he was signing in. He got out of a red BMW and there was a fat guy carrying his bag!"

“That’s outrageous…”

"It's true. Do you remember how he got up here? Teacher Xie helped carry him up here. Then who helped carry him downstairs before that?"

"Fuck, what is the Young Master of Lincheng?"

……

The next morning, Li Yan keenly felt that his roommates looked at him with a hint of...inexplicable awe.

He didn't think much about it, realizing that his financial weakness was a good thing - it gave him another direction to study, but it also triggered worries about "making money" again, which was not the result he wanted.

You have to make money, but the capital, channels, and methods...

Don't be impatient. Unlike housing prices, the Internet's iron-clad memory blockade only shows that this is a world with great potential.

Zhang Ailing said that one should become famous as early as possible. What Li Yan relies on now is no longer those memories that are not clear enough even if they are preserved - can you remember the trend of the Internet?

Even if you remember it, or even copy it, can you guarantee that you can replicate someone else's success?

What he relies on is his "genius" blessed by the system, a young genius.

As long as the Internet opens up a channel for him, he will naturally have a huge advantage.

Anyway, my knowledge is still too narrow...

It is the first week of the school term and the learning intensity is not very high. At least until the end of Friday, the knowledge and ideas learned are still within the scope of Li Yan’s “advance learning”.

The advantage is that it increases the confidence in systematic self-study, but the disadvantage is that taking the course is the same as not taking it.

So he has been thinking about improving his knowledge. The Internet must be used, but it is not easy to filter information on the Internet.

This depends on his knowledge reserves.

New Taipei is different from Lincheng. Developed cities have large enough libraries and bookstores selling rare and good books. These are good places for Li Yan to expand his knowledge.

There are also various exhibition halls, lectures, and salons where you can visit.

Of course, there are people. New Taipei City is full of talented people, and the old city is full of sweeping monks. Expanding your network is also a good way to expand your cognition.

There are too many things to do. Li Yan exhaled slowly. What is choking him in the end might not be "time".

On Friday night, Lin Zhiyuan sent a message to Li Yan asking about her weekend destination, and Li Yan decisively chose the bookstore.

The little fat boy sent out a dozen wailing and crying emojis. Seeing that Li Yan was determined to leave, he suddenly made a ridiculous request:
"Remember to wear the New Taipei First High School uniform."

Li Yan swore that he was not trying to show off, but it would be disrespectful to refuse the kindness of his good friend.

The geniuses of 403 felt sad that there would be no CF match between Li Yan and Chen Fan on Saturday, but they were also excited that Li Yan gave them his computer to play with.

"How rich must one be to be so generous?" Zhu Qinglun couldn't let it go.

"Anyway, I can't bear to part with it..." Chen Fan made no secret of it, "There are too many precious files in the computer."

"That means he is richer than you." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"That's really incredible..."

Zhu Qinglun was stunned, then patted Chen Fan on the shoulder with a smile, "You're actually quite good at showing off!" "Okay, the precious files you mentioned...are they the precious files I was thinking of?" Lin Heng grinned.

"Showy Lin, start the game, start the game!"

The dormitory was bustling with activity early on Saturday morning, while Li Yan and Lin Zhiyuan strolled slowly on the streets of Rongxi District.

"Speaking of which, why aren't you wearing your school uniform?"

"Hehe," Lin Zhiyuan, wearing a sports short-sleeved shirt and jeans, grinned, "This way, others will think I'm also from New Taipei First High School, just not wearing a school uniform."

"You..." Li Yan originally wanted to complain about his vanity, but suddenly realized that this was also a kind of awakening of his competitive spirit. After all, Xiaopang began to desire this special treatment because of his excellence.

Li Yan and the other person's destination was a small business district near the school, which was considered the most frequented recreational spot for nearby residents.

It takes half an hour to walk to the school, but New Taipei is very new to them at this time, so it’s not bad to walk slowly and experience it.

The most obvious feeling along the way is that there are a lot of people. Although there are not many high-rise buildings here, many of the "buildings" that look more than ten stories high and were built in the 1990s still have strong vitality.

The road is actually not wide, there are traffic lights everywhere, the road is full of cars, and various buildings and shops are full of people coming in and out, which is completely opposite to the quiet small town like Lincheng.

This is the concrete feeling of “prosperity”.

The admission experience had already been discussed on QQ, so Lin Zhiyuan started another topic:
"Mr. Yan, does your family trade stocks?"

What's going on? Li Yan's eyes were heavy on the little fat boy. Was God urging him to study economics?

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not the one who trades stocks. My dad said he lost money recently. It's something about the financial crisis."

"The financial crisis...we just discussed it in our dormitory."

"I see my dad is frowning, and he took out a cigarette that he hadn't smoked for a long time." Xiao Pang sighed, "Master Yan, then tell me about the financial crisis. I just can't understand it for a long time."

"I only have a limited understanding."

After explaining his own understanding, Xiaopang asked a soul-searching question:

“So will the stock market crash next?”

"To be honest, I don't understand."

Wow! Xiaopang's eyes lit up, "You don't understand, then I'm really excited, there will be a day when I can popularize science to Yan Shao."

Unfortunately, the fat comrade who was eager to try only had limited experience and he barely explained the basic concept by giving the example of the need for money to open a shop selling eggs.

When Li Yan asked about the definition of a term, he was hesitant in answering it.

Fortunately, the two of them searched through Xiaopang’s mobile phone and roughly understood the basic principles.

Ding!
[Economy +2, Level 15 Skill, 50/]

It's the average, right?

"So that's what happened..."

"Ah? Master Yan, do you understand? Did I miss something? Why don't I understand?"

"Any industry likes to have its own set of technical terms. The purpose of understanding these terms is to transform seemingly complex content into something understandable under one's own knowledge framework, rather than just explaining the technical terms."

"……"The little fat CPU has burned out.

"Stock trading is a form of finance, and finance is essentially the flow of money." Li Yan began to talk to himself, "From the most basic form of you opening a fast food restaurant and borrowing money from me, to me depositing money in the bank and the bank lending money to you, this is called bond investment."

"What, what what?" Xiaopang blinked wildly.

"Then you directly asked my roommates to borrow money together, and you gave us money when you made money. This is called equity investment. Finally, through an intermediary agency, people in New Taipei City can spend money to buy shares of your egg shop. These shares can also be transferred. Once things are transferred, there will be a price difference, and there will be room to make money."

"I understand what you said. This is stock trading." Xiao Pang felt relieved. "Mr. Yan, I heard that stock trading can make money. You are such a genius, do you want to try it?"

"Do not."

"Oh, I'm not talking about now. My dad has lost money now, so why would he ask you to invest in stocks?" Lin Zhiyuan waved his hand, "I have a lot of pocket money. If the situation gets better later, how about we invest a little? I'll listen to you."

Li Yan still shook her head, "No, I won't touch it."

　Stacking A: This chapter and the next one do not mean to think that stock trading is bad. It’s just that Li Yan likes to bet on winning situations, so he does not take it as his main goal to make money.

　　You can make money by investing in stocks appropriately, reasonably, with planning and ability, or with good luck.

　　The author himself also buys lottery tickets and trades stocks. The idea in the article is that Li Yan wants to control everything and make a lot of money after having a system, not the author.

　　The author believes that small gambling can be enjoyable but large gambling can harm one's health. He neither encourages nor denies stock speculation, and specifically emphasizes the significance of finance.

　　To my friends who understand this or firmly believe that one can make a fortune by investing in the stock market, I have not denied the significance of investing in the stock market. If there are comments saying that investing in the stock market will definitely make a lot of money, I will choose to turn a blind eye.
