My Life with Narration

Chapter 435 - 427: 10x Leverage

Not only him, even Shen Yi misunderstood, after all her original intention was to take part in the child-bearing process to earn shares, which is why she was so surprised when both agreed.

Fortunately, the landlady’s mind took an odd turn, directly diverting to the godmother title, otherwise she really wouldn’t know what to do.

It’s impossible to really let them get involved, company shares can be divided, but a man can’t. Even as generous as she is, she’s not at the point of sharing a man.

"Xiao Su, are you sure you don’t want to reconsider? Sis is offering a thousand, didn’t you say the more money the better?" the landlady said.

"Exactly, what’s this, looking down on your sister Nan offering five hundred? If worst comes to worst, I can offer a thousand too, it’s not like I don’t have it!" Tang Nan added.

Upon hearing this, Su Qing was drenched in sweat, although more money is good, he couldn’t really just borrow anyone’s money.

Shen Yi is his girlfriend; he’s already embarrassed to borrow money. How to explain Tang Nan and the landlady?

Even if it’s lent to him, in essence, isn’t it out of regard for Shen Yi?

Their willingness to lend money is entirely because of Shen Yi’s relationship. To put it another way, even if he does lose, the two of them wouldn’t worry, after all, Shen Yi would compensate them. In that case, why would he borrow from these two? Why not directly let Shen Yi chip in two million one hundred thousand, rather than troubling the both of them and accruing personal debts?

If he couldn’t see this bit of human nature, he might as well give up.

Though the two appeared to offer him money, in reality, without Shen Yi, he’d be just a passerby, not even part of the same world. So, even though their relations were quite good, Su Qing could still place himself correctly.

"Sister Qing, Sister Nan, what are you talking about? While it’s true the more the better, investing in stocks has its wins and losses. If I lose Shen Yi’s money, I’m prepared to sell myself to work off the debt. If you two lend me so much, winning is fine, but if I win I really can’t pay back!" Su Qing said, smiling bitterly and waving his hand.

"No problem, sis doesn’t care about that bit of money, just playing!" the landlady said with a laugh. She wasn’t short of this bit of cash; among the three, she was the wealthiest, dripping in riches.

Let’s not even talk about Shen Yi’s company, seventy percent of Mr. Wen’s life’s assets were with her; how much, nobody knew.

"Alright, alright, though I’m not as rich as you, I can still come up with the money. How could he dare take Sister Qing’s money, it’s not proper!" Shen Yi laughed and said.

Obviously, she was very satisfied with Su Qing’s reaction. Discussing financial needs with your girlfriend is right, accepting other women’s money, now that would be the problem.

"Ah, Sister Qing, looks like we can’t get into this investment this time. Little Su has already said, if he loses he’ll sell himself to pay off the debt. If he sold himself to us two, Little Yi would fight us to the death. Alright, what are we having tonight, I’m hungry!" Tang Nan, seeing Su Qing’s firm stance, also gave up on the idea of investing.

Although she saw Su Qing’s skill in stock trading, he was really impressive, but still, no one could guarantee he would profit this time.

If he lost, Shen Yi would definitely repay them, and accepting the money would be embarrassing. If refused, they’d suffer a loss, and Su Qing would feel guilty. It just wasn’t a good option.

It’s better to invest in having children, there’s no risk.

The borrowing debacle concluded, and amidst Da Huang’s barking and cursing, they left the dog at home and drove out for a meal.

Da Huang, enraged, shredded the living room pillows to bits.

At night, Wen Nanqing took Tang Nan back to her place, and the group temporarily separated.

In the living room, Su Qing swept up the mess, while Shen Yi angrily rubbed the dog’s head:

"You dare wreck the house, need a beating, huh? Speak up, are you going to wreck it again?"

Da Huang: "Woof!" [I was wrong, I’ll dare it again next time!]

"Oh, still not convinced? See if I won’t spank you!" Saying this, Shen Yi picked up a slipper and gave Da Huang a swat on the butt.

With a slap sound, Da Huang was fine, even lay on the side, looked up at Shen Yi and let out a sigh: "Hoo~~" [Is that it? You’re weak!]

"Understood now? Good, no more wrecking the house from now on, okay, good boy!"

Su Qing: ...

If it weren’t for the last line not matching up, he’d have thought Shen Yi could understand ’dog talk’, seemed like just a coincidence.

At night, the two nestled on the sofa, leaning against each other. Su Qing held the computer, looking at the stock market page, meanwhile learning how to maximize profits. Although the rise starts tomorrow, it doesn’t hinder his current operations. This time the investment was unprecedentedly large, how could he not be nervous?

Shen Yi looked at him staring at the stock market K-line graph, motionless, before speaking:

"If you think a million isn’t enough, I have more here. Say the amount and I’ll try to give it, no big goals, but more might require some effort!"

Upon hearing this, Su Qing affectionately patted Shen Yi’s head, gently saying: "It’s enough, I’m just trying to round it off. You should hold on tight to your dowry, this is considered a loan, unlike the last million, any profit this time won’t involve you!"

How could he not know Shen Yi was wealthy, not just a hundred million, even more, but who among the rich keeps such cash just lying around? Most money rolls within the company, a billion might be all Shen Yi can mobilize, even a million requires her to finagle it, not worth it.

It wasn’t like this was the only opportunity he had, he had to play it big, even better if bigger, eventually he could keep the flow steady and slow.

Once the money increases, even if he couldn’t catch such a good market again, he’d still profit substantially, no need for such hassle.

"It’s not a hassle, my man’s doing big things, how could I, as the girlfriend, not support!" Shen Yi said with a laugh, eyes full of tenderness.

"You, aren’t you afraid I’d lose? Even without considering the recent profits, just your principal is seven million, aren’t you afraid?" Su Qing asked.

Hearing this, Shen Yi pursed her lips: "What’s there to fear, didn’t you say if we lose, you’ll sell yourself to repay the debt. What, are you thinking of backing out?"

"How could that be, even if you win, we can still sell!" Saying so, amidst Shen Yi’s exclamation, Su Qing scooped her up and headed to the second-floor bedroom.

Soon the room filled with rustling sounds, and shortly Su Qing’s amazed voice was heard: "Eh, why is there blood?"

"Oops, almost forgot, it’s my period today, alright, sleep, we’ll talk in seven days!"

Su Qing: ...

"C’mon, call Brother Nan and Sister Qing!"

"Why, are you thinking of switching people?"

"No, I’m just mad, want to scold them a bit, it’s all their fault, spoiled what was going well last night, it’s infuriating!"

"Ugh... watch out that they won’t eat you alive, those two; one’s a wild car-racing cougar, the other’s a daredevil. I’m afraid you’ll suffer, sleep, sleep!"

In the end, Su Qing fell asleep amidst unsatisfied restlessness.

Early the next day, he cooked a bowl of brown sugar water and delivered it to Shen Yi upstairs, then opened the stock trading page to start operations.

He’d already screened stocks yesterday, finding several with good potential gains; the best almost tripled in value.

The reason for multiple choices was that this time he intended to leverage. If you’re going big, go really big.

With 10x leverage, if the stock rises ten percent, his profit is a hundred percent, meaning each ten percent rise earns him ten million.

If that stock with a threefold gain, that’s thirty million, i.e., three hundred million, gamble small, win big, earnings would be staggering.

But leveraging risks abound; once leveraged, you can’t perform other operations, only choose to sell off. If during this, stock value drops ten percent, liquidation occurs immediately, losing everything.

So high potential earnings, but equally high risk, even if he knew from commentary that stocks would surge within forty days, those are only forty-day results; dips are possible in between.

This isn’t like before, where he could just stash money in, leave it and sell it when time’s up, and pocket the cash. Now he needed to take it step by step; he hadn’t even told Old Su.

He selected a total of four stocks, with the highest nearly tripling in value; the least, doubling. He targeted the one with the highest increase, bought a share and added 10x leverage, and sure enough, the commentary sounded in his head.

[This stock will show slight growth in the coming ten days, followed by multiple decreases, exceeding twenty percent!]

Indeed, he knew he couldn’t be careless; he could choose to sell everything on the tenth day, wait for it to bottom out and buy back, but substantial time would be consumed in this, costing profit, since during this he’d miss further gains.

He then picked another, adding 10x leverage, setting in for a drop after twenty days.

Then came the third choice, fourth, opting for phased operations. Phase one: 14 days, choosing a preferred A-share stock with significant early potential, ten million plus 10x leverage.

[Upon selling out in 14 days, your worth will soar to fifty-four million. If not sold by 9 am on the 19th, you’ll lose everything.]

"Amazing!"
