Yang Xue set out from Rongcheng in late September, bringing with him a few seniors who had extensive connections in the jade and antique circles in Rongcheng, as well as 20 bodyguards assigned by Xiao Qi, and went straight from Rongcheng to Caiyun, and then from Caiyun.

They moved to eastern Guangdong, and then to Hotan in eastern Guangdong. For 20 days, through various comparisons and introductions, they secretly and unobtrusively raided more than 200 jade and jewelry shops before finally completing the purchase assigned by Xiao Qi.

Task.

In the end, the bodyguards could only find the bank's VIP vault in each city they visited, store the large boxes in their hands, and then purchase new ones. Only when they were about to leave did the bank ask the bank to transport the boxes directly to the airport security checkpoint.

Even those seniors in their 50s and 60s said that they have never seen anyone so generous in buying jadeite and Hetian jade. Only Xiao Qi, the richest man in the world, can spend money for firewood!

They were also very satisfied. Not only had they witnessed such a big acquisition, but after returning, Xiao Qi asked Yang Xue to give each of them 1 million, making everyone happy.

Everyone knows that Xiao Qi spent a lot of money, but only Yang Xue knew the final total purchase price because he was the one who signed the bill.

1.2 billion!

Excluding expenses along the way, employment fees, etc. totaling 20 million, Yang Xue spent 1.18 billion in 20 days.

Among them, 382 rough-processed jade stones cost 760 million yuan, and 534 pieces of various jadeite and Hetian jade ornaments cost 420 million yuan. If Yang Xue had not been exposed to tens of millions of dollars in business, and knew that Xiao Qi's property exceeded 500 billion yuan.

, I'm afraid my heart will jump out.

Even so, Yang Xue also felt that Xiao Qi was a little too extravagant and wasteful, just like the nouveau riche.

That's why I gave those words of persuasion just now.

That is to say, Yang Xue's identity, otherwise no one else would dare to say this in front of Xiao Qi.

He didn't even believe Xiao Qi's judgment that jadeite and Hetian jade would inevitably rise sharply, because the past two years had been a financial crisis, and the big bosses in the country were in disarray. Who had the leisure to play with antiques?

But no matter what, Xiao Qi will not lose money when he buys jade and Hetian jade. It will also be an act of preserving value in the long run, so Yang Xue didn't say much.

However, Yang Xue didn't know that it was precisely because of the fierce financial crisis, and because they didn't know what to do, that these big bosses put their money into preserving and speculating on antiques and the like.

!

When the wind blows from above, how can the common people below, who have the least information, not follow the trend?

After a storm formed from above, it was a wave of fanaticism that swept across the country!

Instead of seizing the time to research better technology and better work efficiency, what will be the consequences if we focus all our time, money and energy on these useless curios?

The lesson learned by the Dutch about speculating on tulips hundreds of years ago was written clearly and clearly, but it is a pity that no one can clearly enlighten the public!

Can playing antiques enrich the country and strengthen its army? Can it increase China's international competitiveness? Can it improve the overall quality of the people, quality of life and environment?

If this is not called playing with things to lose one's ambition, what else does it mean to play with things to lose one's ambition?

But even someone as powerful as Xiao Qi couldn't stop this trend from coming.

After all, dreams such as "getting rich overnight", "empty wolves", and "pie in the sky" have always been what ordinary people like. Even if they are fooled and deceived again and again, they can't stop their impulse.

.

Xiao Qi has no choice but to work hard on his own, to understand the technology of the smart electronics industry more thoroughly, and to remind the public from another aspect, which is also to set a correct example.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qi felt a little less interested in the treasures in front of him.

"By the way, Archie, I went to Caiyun this time and found that Caiyun's Pu'er tea has fallen sharply! It was so hyped in the first half of the year, and now the drop has exceeded 30, and it has dropped by one price a day! Those who are stuck, but

I can't even cry." After Yang Xue had a full stomach, he began to talk to Xiao Qi about what he had experienced along the way, "I have talked with the local people in Pu'er, and the locals all know that the Pu'er produced every year in the entire Pu'er area is...

It is enough for people to drink for 20 years, not to mention that it is still produced every year. These fools who followed the trend later were really deceived."

When he said this, Xiao Qi also remembered similar things, and unconsciously said: "In the late 1990s, something like this also happened. At that time, the Baodao people were tricked by the Japanese, and then the Baodao people again

Come here and trick the mainlanders... I guess it will be the same this time. Without culture, knowledge and ability, I will only be treated as the last person to take over, and I won’t even have time to cry."

As he talked, the young man suddenly remembered that the next wave of antiques seemed to be started by speculators from Japan and Taiwan first, and then it was the rich people from China who took over.

I really don’t remember to fight!

Fortunately, the antique trend has affected very few ordinary people, and most of them are wealthy people, so if you want to commit suicide, you can leave it to them.

Anyway, if Xiao Qi had told him in advance, they wouldn't have listened.

In fact, compared to financial derivatives, antique Pu'er and the like are better.

Since these are all real objects, if I couldn’t do it anymore, I bought Pu’er at a very low price to drink, and bought antiques at a very high price to collect, which was an idea.

But financial derivatives are different. Those big Japanese banks and investment banks use various methods to trick China's factory owners and wealthy people into buying their financial derivatives.

Those financial derivatives contracts that range from dozens of pages to hundreds of pages, even Wall Street people would be stunned if they came here themselves, let alone farmers and entrepreneurs in China, just listening to what banks and investment banks say

, I eagerly signed the contract and invested money, dreaming of waiting for high dividends.

Tsk tsk, isn't it nice to make American money?

Tsk tsk, you are much stupider than Americans, how can you make other people's money?

In the end, whether it was the subprime debt crisis or the financial crisis, more than thousands of China's small and medium-sized wealthy people fell to these financial derivatives?

Tens of billions and hundreds of billions of hard-earned money have been defrauded by Americans using so-called formal fraud methods in just a few years. How can this tragedy be explained clearly in a few words?

Of course, it was not just the Chinese who were deceived. Americans used these financial derivatives to defraud people all over the world. So in the end, Obama said that he would ban all "financial derivatives trading", which really scared the shit out of Wall Street people.

.

Unfortunately, Obama did not succeed in the end.
Chapter completed!
