After hanging up the phone, Lu Ze’s expression became even more exaggerated. He laughed hysterically and said, “It seems that even God is on my side! I thought that the bastard was capable! So all that money was earned with blockchain currency!?”
Just now, he doubted Brother Zhang’s words that he could really make so much money. After all, he was not a fool. He knew that it was easy to make money but not easy to make big money.
But now that there was a real case that involved his arch-enemy, he naturally did not have many doubts now. So he was completely immersed in the joy of imminent victory!
Assistant Wei stood quietly by the side and did not say anything.
He had also heard about the blockchain matter. Indeed, he had made money from what he had invested, but he only played a few rounds. As a precautionary measure, he did not get involved again.
In any case, he did not expect to buy a few apartments with this money.
One should learn to be content.
However…
Did Lu Ming make his money from speculating in currencies? he wondered.
It seemed to be possible.
Brother Zhang did not think too much. He could only see the benefits in front of him. He muttered, “No wonder Lu Ming could suddenly establish a company. Is this the reason? Speaking of which, some of the people in the company invested earlier. Even now, I heard that some of them have bought cars and apartments.”
“Hahahaha! Good news after good news!”
Lu Ze held his phone and said, “Hurry up and teach me how to earn money. This time, I’ll definitely trample on that bastard! That way, Dad won’t think that he’s good and will then think that I’m the most suitable successor of the Lu family business!”
Brother Zhang visited a cryptocurrency website in excitement. He said, “It’s for investing in these virtual currencies. We will be making uncountable amounts of money.”
“Which investment can earn money? Do I have to invest in all of them?”
Lu Ze looked at the dazzling currencies without understanding anything. Just as he was about to randomly invest in any one of them, he was stopped by Brother Zhang.
“Young Master Lu, I can’t guarantee that you’ll profit from investing in these.”
“Why? Weren’t you the one who asked me to speculate? It’s still a sure win. Can you do it or not?”
His words had put a damper on the excited Lu Ze. He could already imagine Lu Ming kneeling on the ground and begging him for mercy. But his dream ended abruptly.
Brother Zhang hurriedly explained, “Don’t worry. I heard from some sources that if you invest in Dogecoin, you will definitely earn money. It won’t be a loss at all. This is what I’ve been investing in recently. Look, this is the money I’m earning.”
He quickly opened his phone and revealed the balance inside. It was exactly 20 thousand yuan.
With this fact as evidence, Lu Ze—who did not have any sense of reality—instantly felt grounded. He became more determined and said, “How much did you invest?”
“I didn’t have much money. I just invested 5,000 yuan. I made so much in just three days.”
Brother Zhang scratched the back of his head and said.
Even though he had only earned slightly more than 15 thousand yuan, he was already very satisfied. Moreover, if this continued, he might really be able to buy a good car.
Lu Ze fell into deep thought. He had spent all the money previously, and after his mother found out that he still owed others money, she gave him another 1 million yuan to spend carefully. After paying his debts, he only had 600 thousand yuan left.
Lu Yaohua did not know anything about this, which meant that he could use it as he pleased.
At the thought of this, he readily transferred the rest of his private savings to Dogecoin. At this moment, he was feeling very perturbed. He must not lose money, or else he would not have the money to fill the shortfall. He might even be reprimanded!
“Are you sure it won’t drop?”
“I’m sure. Just wait to receive the money!”
…
When Tang Wenyi returned from playing mahjong, she saw Lu Ze sitting on the recliner and looking at his phone. She smiled in relief. It seemed that her precious son had grown up and knew not to cause trouble.
“What are you looking at? Why are you so serious?”
Lu Ze closed his phone screen and said mysteriously, “Mom, let me tell you. I’m investing in a big thing now. I will definitely earn a lot of money. Just wait and see! At that time, Lu Ming will be nothing!”
Investment?
My son is investing?
I could not have heard wrongly, could I?
Tang Wenyi was from a prestigious family and knew a little about these things. There were high returns on investment but also high risks. She hesitated and said, “You… threw all the money in?”
“Right.”
Tang Wenyi almost gasped for breath when she heard this answer. She forced a smile and said, “Are you sure you can earn money? Why don’t we take back the investment as soon as possible?”
It would save him from losing his pants!
“Mom, don’t worry. Do you know where Lu Ming got the money to start a company?”
Lu Ze’s sudden question caught Tang Wenyi off guard. How is this related to Lu Ming? she wondered.
Seeing that she did not react for a long time, Lu Ze said impatiently, “He relied on this to earn money, that’s why he started his company! This is a profitable thing.”
“Is your information accurate?”
“Precisely! My friend overheard this in the bar. That person’s distant relative works for Lu Ming!”
Tang Wenyi was shocked. “Is this thing so profitable?! No wonder that bastard is rich. So that’s how it is!”
She snorted softly. It seemed that Lu Yaohua did not have good judgment. Even an idiot could do such a simple thing. If Lu Ming could do it, so could her precious son. Perhaps he could do better!
“Looks like your friends are still useful. As expected of my son!”
Lu Ze strutted his chest confidently and looked up. “My judgment can’t be wrong!”
“Alright, I’ll leave this to you. If you need my help, let me know as soon as possible.”
“Okay.”
Tang Wenyi returned to her bedroom and looked at the photo on the bedside table. It was a family photo of them.
Zhang Wenfang had never been her match, let alone Lu Ming!
It was just a seed left behind by Lu Yaohua when he was young. She would not let him be smug for too long!
The next few days, Lu Ze was very quiet, which made Lu Yaohua relieved. He asked Assistant Wei, “What has he been doing recently? Why is he so serious?”
“… Playing with his phone.”
In a sense, Assistant Wei was right.
If Lu Yaohua knew that Lu Ze had started speculating, he would definitely fly into a rage again. In addition, Tang Wenyi had specially reminded him not to say anything unnecessary. Of course, he knew who the head of the Lu family was. It was a small matter to offend Lu Yaohua, but if he offended Tang Wenyi, he would not be able to survive here.
Lu Yaohua said resentfully, “Forget it. I don’t expect him to do anything anyway.”
Not long after he left, Lu Ze, who was sitting in the back garden, made a sound!
