Chapter 193: Chapter 100 He is Not Fighting Alone_3

Hmm, I’m almost at the point where I can borrow money.

When the time was right, Ren Zhong waved his hand to interrupt Ma Dafu.

"Reputation is one thing, but no reputation is as useful as money. I need to make money now. The old scavengers would even sell their lives for 20 points. What do you think if I pull out a large sum of money and, using the excuse of going out to work, lead a large group of scavengers away?"

Ma Dafu did a quick calculation, "Scavengers without combat power face risks leaving the town. Even with professional scavenger escorts, a large group would surely be ambushed by Ruined Beasts. This is risking lives. If you pay too little, no one will come. Even for the elderly, you need to pay at least 10 points per person. The young and strong would cost even more. With a hundred thousand points, you could only take a few thousand people. How much money do you have?"

Ren Zhong shook his head, "None. After buying the wrist watch, I’m broke."

Ma Dafu gritted his teeth, "Alright, I still have twenty thousand in savings. Come find me when you need to make a move."

Ren Zhong’s eyes lit up slightly.

This is exactly what I was waiting for you to say!

Comrade Ma is incredibly smart, a lifetime of brilliance, yet his opponent has anticipated everything, arranging all information and his personality perfectly.

He was ingeniously led into a trap set by Ren Zhong, step by step.

Couldn’t withstand it at all!

Ren Zhong shook his head again, "Twenty thousand isn’t enough."

"Then I’ll borrow from my daughter! She still has a little."

Ren Zhong continued to shake his head, "No, no, no. I need it now."

Old Ma’s bad idea didn’t interest him at all.

Ma paused, "Ah? What do you want with it now?"

Ren Zhong smiled and took out a tablet, and with a devilishly enticing tone, said slowly, "Mayor Ma, have you ever heard of the stock market?"

Upon hearing this, Old Ma shook his head vigorously, "Are you crazy! I advise you not to meddle with the stock market. That thing swallows you whole, worse than a Ruined Beast!"

Ren Zhong kept smiling, clicked open the tablet, pushed it towards Ma Dafu, and made a gesture of invitation, "Really? Mayor Ma, take a closer look?"

With a stomach full of doubts, Ma Dafu picked up the tablet, squinted his eyes, and pondered carefully.

"My God! You... you you you you..."

Comrade Old Ma was dumbfounded.

Is this even possible?

Ren Zhong showed him his stock market account.

Of course, to avoid being too shocking, Ren Zhong had concealed certain aspects, allowing Ma Dafu to only see his five ultra-short-term trades.

The terrifying increases, often exceeding 40%, stunned Old Ma and left him starry-eyed.

Even though Ren Zhong only bought one share each time, the actual amount gained wasn’t large, but the success rate was astonishingly high, completely overturning Old Ma’s understanding.

Old Ma exclaimed, "Mr. Ren, you’re amazing! You’ve really figured out the stock market!"

Ren Zhong modestly waved his hand, "Not really. The capital is small, a minor game doesn’t catch the eye of major players. It’s just my little pastime on the side, nothing significant."

Hearing this, Ma Dafu pondered and nodded, "That’s also true. But Mr. Ren, there’s real skill in your small play. May I ask boldly, how do you determine that these seemingly unremarkable small stocks would soar like this?"

Ren Zhong smiled slightly.

He knew the pivotal moment for sealing the deal had arrived.

Before meeting Ma, he had researched all the information, prepared his script, and was ready.

"Let’s start with An Sheng Biotech. This was how I analyzed it at the time..."

"Look at its trend before it rose; it seemed ordinary, unremarkable. But that was a disguise, as technically, there was no hint of a rise."

"There was also radio silence on the news front."

"But look here, this is a report I found before entering the market. It mentioned that a well-known bull’s account, dormant for years, had become publicly active again. I had studied this bull’s habits, and he especially liked biotech companies, particularly ultra-small-cap stocks priced below 3 points."

"Look at An Sheng Biotech’s trading records at the time. The large mix of small buy orders mixed with medium sell-offs was precisely in line with the bull’s trading habits."

"So I was quite certain at the time. An Sheng Biotech was surely heading for a big move! I decisively followed suit and cashed out precisely at the peak, completely in sync with him."

Ma Dafu questioned, "Mr. Ren, this report had fewer than a hundred clicks, barely causing a ripple. How did you notice it?"

Ren Zhong smiled mysteriously, "That’s why I can do things others can’t. Now, let’s look at Yadi Energy..."

Ren Zhong wasn’t using any flashy nonsense-fooling techniques.

In fact, anyone could do those tricks.

Everyone in the industry could reverse-engineer the reasons for stock price increases.

But Ren Zhong’s words were particularly convincing at the moment because his impressive actual combat record was right in front of Old Ma.

In the end, Ren Zhong summed it up like this: "The stock market is actually very simple. As long as you grasp the true patterns, you can discern the small from the insignificant and possess an overview of the big picture. This allows someone like me with a few hundred or even tens of thousands of small entries and exits to basically achieve victory without arousing the major players’ vigilance. Of course, there are small ways to play it small and big ways to play it big. I got tired of playing the big games before; now I just want to play the small ones."

Ma Dafu struggled internally for a long time.

He even wondered if Sun Miao’s colleague had been stripped of citizen rights and forced into hiding because he offended someone powerful by being too aggressive in stock trading.

Then he thought, Ren Zhong was willing to risk coming out of the shadows to save the scavengers in the town.

Comrade Old Ma gritted his teeth, "Truth be told, I actually have thirty thousand in liquid assets. But I really need it next month..."

Ren Zhong almost laughed out loud.

So earlier, this simpleton was holding back, saying two thousand was to hide his full extent. He wasn’t really planning to borrow from his daughter; he had reserves, and now he admits the truth.

Ren Zhong firmly grasped Old Ma’s chubby hand and said in a comradely tone, "I’m already very grateful! Then it’s settled! You lend me the money for stock trading. Next month, I’ll definitely return the full amount—including any taxes. With a larger fund, I can’t promise the same returns, but I’ll definitely make something out of it, maybe a few thousand."

Ma Dafu: "Hmm. Done deal."

With a fortune of 34,057.21 points, Ren Zhong leisurely went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

The Fourth Level wrist watch in hand, costing 5,000, leaving 29,057.21.

He had used a little public money, but it wasn’t a big issue.

Then Ren Zhong went straight to the Military Weapon Store.

Tonight, he wasn’t changing equipment; he mainly wanted to catch up with the beautiful and charming Manager Ju, talk about life and ideals.

Hmm, and maybe borrow some money along the way.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t let Ju Qingmeng measure his parameters for now, otherwise, she would be astounded by his uniquely outstanding Brain Reaction Index.
