Chapter 1793: Peak of the Nascent Soul: Return to Reality
A peaceful life is actually the best.
Some people are bored.
Only those who have truly experienced disaster can understand the value of a peaceful life.
On weekdays, he reads books, drinks tea, and practices with beautiful women. Although this kind of life is monotonous, it is not boring. Jiang Hao enjoys it very much.
Xuanwu Mountain behind Shangqing Temple is a forbidden area for Taoist temples. Only people from Taoist temples can enter. There are not many buildings here, only a pavilion, and there is no climbing road. If you want to get there, you can only fly across the valley.
Jiang Hao sat in the pavilion and looked at the flourishing aroma of the Taoist temple. He was very satisfied. Because of his propaganda, Shangqing Temple has been prosperous since its opening.
I picked up the tea cup and took a sip. It was fragrant and delicious.
Seeing that the tea cup in front of Jiang Hao was empty, Su Su picked up the teapot and filled it up for him, saying: "These days, Xiaoqing said that the Nasdaq index has been skyrocketing, and some experts have suggested that there are too many bubbles in it and it may face a collapse crisis. , but most investors are still optimistic about Internet stocks.”
Two people who look like foreign monks talk about stocks and Internet bubbles when they open their mouths, which makes people feel very inconsistent.
"What time is it on Nasdaq?" Jiang Hao asked.
"It officially broke through 5,000 yesterday. In the past four months, it has rushed from 2,800 points to 5,000 points. It is really crazy." Su Su said.
Jiang Hao nodded.
From 800 points in 1995, Nasdaq continued to rise, reaching 2,800 points in late 1999, with a profit margin of more than 3 times. Many people made a lot of money from the Nasdaq Internet economy, so the stock market became increasingly crazy.
Since late 1999, the stock market has been going crazy, showing a straight upward trend. It only took four months to rise from 2,800 points to 5,000 points.
A lot of investors are going crazy.
Analysts, investors, entrepreneurs, venture capital firms, and banks are all in a frenzy.
Jiang Hao is very familiar with this period of history and has read a lot of information. He knows that the real turning point is coming and the bubble of the Internet economy is about to burst.
"Tell Xiaoqing to start the operation, sell all the Internet investments in our hands, and switch to shorting the Nasdaq index."
"As well as the Internet companies we listed, all the current shares held were sold."
Previously, Jiang Hao acquired two Internet companies and a software company from Qin Shihuang, oh, Riley. In order to revitalize these two companies, Jiang Hao personally took action and created several software, as well as the game Plants vs. Zombies.
These pieces of software were well received in the market. Coupled with the Internet bubble, the company quickly went public and became a real star stock after another round of speculation.
Many people came to invest with banknotes. Jiang Hao told Xiaoqing that he would accept anyone who came and sell the stocks at a high price, as long as he ensured control of the company.
He is waiting for this day, when the Internet bubble bursts, he will buy back those stocks at a very low price.
At the same time, Jiang Hao also took advantage of the skyrocketing momentum of Nasdaq and asked Xiaoqing to invest in the index. To be honest, Jiang Hao was partly responsible for this surge of 2,200 points in a few months.
You know, the amount of funds he can use now is huge.
"In this case, there will be a lot of movement. It should be very exciting if I go and operate it with Xiaoqing." Su Su said with a smile.
In the turmoil of the business world, Bai Susu and Xiaoqing found new fun.
People always have some hobbies.
Bai Susu and Xiaoqing are Jiang Hao, specializing in management, finance, and investment matters. Now the two of them like this feeling of stirring up trouble more and more.
After Bai Susu left, Jiang Hao turned to look at the mountains and whispered: "Life is like dust and dew, and the path of heaven is long and thin. The scenery rises to the hills and mountains, and people communicate with each other through tears."
After going down the mountain, Jiang Hao came to Tomorrow's room. Tomorrow was practicing. When he heard the noise, he opened his eyes and saw that it was Jiang Hao who gave him a smile.
"Let me see how you are practicing."
"I have already established the foundation, just last night." Tomorrow said.
Jiang Hao was shocked, "So fast?"
"Soon?"
"Of course it's fast. I've only taught you to practice for a few days in total. You can feel Qi after the first practice and enter the Qi refining stage directly. In just one week, you have broken through the Qi refining stage and reached the foundation building stage. Ordinary people This process may take several years, ten years, or even a lifetime." Jiang Haodao.
"That means I'm very powerful." Tomorrow said with a smile.
Jiang Hao thought for a while and said: "I guess it's because of your bloodline. Although you gave me your heart core, your blood and body still contain a lot of energy. Through practice, this energy is stimulated, so It will advance so quickly.”
"I think so too." Tomorrow said.
"Based on your situation, I believe it won't take long before you can reach the Golden Core Realm. The Golden Core Realm has a lifespan of 500 years and your youth will last forever. During your lifetime, you might be able to cultivate and become an immortal, and you might even live forever." Jiang Hao smiled. said.
Tomorrow was not particularly excited, and said with a smile: "I have already experienced immortality, so that is no longer my pursuit. I only hope to live a more fulfilling and colorful life in the years to come."
"I believe it will." Jiang Hao said.
After receiving Jiang Hao's order, Su Su and Xiao Qing sat in the strategy room on the top floor, looking at the big screen in front of them, which showed the Nasdaq stock electronic curve chart.
In the back, there are two rows of operators. They are all stock and futures traders of the ‘Haotian Group’.
Traders are constantly selling. In order not to cause panic, they must adopt a decentralized trading method. Even so, because of their huge trading volume, they still caused some fluctuations. Fortunately, the Internet of Things stock market is now in full swing, and many people are willing to take the stocks they released.
In 5 days, Susu finally sold all the stocks that could be sold and cashed in, and then began to short sell. It took a few more days to complete the layout.
Susu did not start too much leverage, only 5 times, but for her capital, this is already a huge amount of tens of billions of dollars.
Naturally, it has a big impact on the market.
Of course, this is not the key.
A few days later, Barron's, which belongs to Murdoch News Group, published a report titled "Burning Up", which stripped off the emperor's new clothes of the Internet bubble and ignited the entire Internet bubble.
This report was based on a study of 207 Internet companies, of which 51 Internet companies experienced very serious cash flow depletion, executives cashing out, rising investment risk aversion, market funds shrinking, and cooling of the refinancing market.
Under the multiple superposition effects, the refinancing problems of these companies cannot be solved, and the final outcome will only usher in a major reshuffle of the industry, bankruptcy and reorganization.
Even some Internet companies are just a concept, a theory, with no profit point at all, no future, and are just for listing to make money.
Even those Internet companies that still have something are very lacking in profitability. At this stage, they are almost all relying on investors' funds and burning money crazily. As for where their future lies, I am afraid even managers don't know.
As soon as this report came out, it immediately caused market panic. Many people woke up from the dreamlike illusion and began to frantically sell their Internet stocks.
The domino effect, once the fire is ignited, it will soon become a flame that destroys everything. Internet stocks that were still stars a few days ago have now all become garbage, and people just want to cash out and leave.
Retail investors flee,
Financial companies flee.
Major shareholders also want to flee.
But now no one is willing to pay.
Internet stocks have become garbage that everyone fears, and no one dares to take over, so the stocks began to fall again and again, and fell wildly.
Susu and Xiaoqing found Jiang Hao and reported the current situation to him. Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Boss is the wisest. We almost escaped at the highest point. After we turned short, there was an immediate plunge. We made a lot of money this time."
"Boss, how low do you think the stock market will fall this time?" Xiaoqing asked.
"What do you think?" Jiang Hao asked back.
Xiaoqing thought for a while, "I think it should fall to around 3,000 points."
Her analysis was based on rationality. Is the Internet a good thing? Yes, is there a future? Yes, but it has been too crazy recently, soaring from more than 2,800 points, which has created such a bubble, so it is normal to return to 3,000 points.
In fact, many people outside also hold this view.
Jiang Hao smiled, "It's much more than that, it will fall to about 1,000 points."
Historically, Nasdaq fell from its highest point of more than 5,100 points to 1,100 points in a diving posture in the following year or so, and finally ended up in a mess.
Susu and Xiaoqing were very surprised. "How could it fall so much? Most Internet companies can't support it at all. I'm afraid a large number of companies will go bankrupt."
"It's normal, but at that time, it's the best time for us to hold funds and buy Internet stocks." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
After two years, those Internet companies will fall to only one-tenth of their original value, or even one-twentieth or one-thirtieth.
Buying at that time is like picking up cabbage at a random price, and those companies will beg you to buy their stocks.
Anyone who buys the stock of a company that can be named in the future will become a billionaire in the future.
Although Jiang Hao is making money, he doesn't have much cash in his hands.
Look at the space, there are only 400 tons of gold earned from Japan, which has only increased by more than 20 cubic meters after conversion.
Not enough.
Otherwise, rob the United States again?
In fact, the United States is already very miserable now. The Internet bubble burst, the Nasdaq plummeted, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 Index also fell sharply, and many people suffered.
According to statistics, the US stock market has evaporated 4 trillion in just over a year.
If gold is lost again at this time, will the economy collapse?
Jiang Hao told the girls that he was going out to collect materials for refining, and then disappeared. A few days later, a major news suddenly broke out in the United States.
The vault of the New York Reserve Bank was violently robbed. A group of robbers wearing camouflage, masked, and armed with heavy weapons rushed into the bank.
After controlling the hostages for a few hours, the robbers disappeared inexplicably. Later, the FBI found that the wall of the underground vault was blown open and all the gold inside disappeared.
Countless experts were puzzled. How did the robbers transport more than 8,000 tons of gold? How did the last thirty or forty robbers disappear? This incident shocked the world and caused the US economy to suffer another heavy blow.
Jiang Hao returned to Hong Kong with a smile on his face. At this moment, his gold space has increased to 1,200 cubic meters.
Well,
a 10*10*12 large box.
Time passed like a flash of flowing water. Jiang Hao had been in this world for three years, and more than a year had passed since he completed the system task of collecting Jiang Chen.
On this day,
Jiang Hao was practicing with Bai Su Su. The two of them were in harmony with each other, and the fun was unspeakable to outsiders. After a night of practice, he was surprised to find that his cultivation had advanced to the peak of the Nascent Soul.
Jiang Hao knew that it was time to leave this world.
He came to the pavilion in the back mountain, where he could overlook the entire Shangqing Temple.
In the past year or so,
With He Yingqiu's management, Shangqing Temple has improved its facilities, and with Jiang Hao in charge, it has become the most famous Taoist temple in Hong Kong, and the incense has become more and more prosperous.
Ma Xiaoling's cultivation has made great progress and has reached the peak of foundation building. She is expected to advance to the Golden Core in this life.
The most powerful one is Mingri. In just over a year, Mingri has rushed all the way from the Qi Refining Stage to the Golden Core. Two months ago, he officially condensed the Golden Core and became a Golden Core True Person.
Susu and Xiaoqing have both been granted the ordination and can enjoy the incense. Because of the absorption of the power of incense, the two women's strength has increased a lot, and they are no longer afraid of the danger of insufficient spiritual energy.
Chuchun and Zhenzi have also been accepted by Jiang Hao as Taoist temple guardians, enjoying the incense, and are responsible for the cleaning and maintenance of Shangqing Temple. The two women are careful in their work, and Shangqing Temple is always kept clean, exquisite, and well-organized, becoming the most famous leisure garden and tourist attraction in Hong Kong.
Opening the system, Jiang Hao took a look,
"Collect generals."
"Collect a total of 382 zombies of all levels."
The task has been successfully completed.
Without hesitation, Jiang Hao clicked the button to complete the task.
~~Swish!
Jiang Hao's body disappeared in this world,
returning to the real world!
