Chapter 863 -349: Could My Fans Really Be This Stupid? (3)

“Hmm, but it’s not important. I’ll bring my parents over in a couple of years once I have things sorted.”

“Oh, oh, that works.”

Fang City didn’t continue to ask questions.

He had chatted with Liu Daneng many times and knew that the guy had gone through a lot abroad, but how he went abroad and why he was so indifferent to his family, he had no idea.

Anyway, he felt that Liu Daneng didn’t have any issues, whether it was character or personality.

It’s probably due to some family issues.

Because dining in wasn’t allowed, they ate takeout for dinner.

They ordered five or six dishes, and Fang City also brought out some alcohol.

Fang City didn’t have a wife or kids. The childhood sweetheart he was supposed to be engaged to suddenly married a wealthy man eight years ago.

And he emptied all his family’s savings just to pay the down payment in a first-tier city.

After drinking a bit, Fang City said, “Actually, I agree with some of Li Yang’s views. When it comes to marriage, you should definitely find someone who likes you. So-called liking someone yourself is mostly about being attracted to their looks, craving their body. Even if you temporarily win someone over with wealth, in the end, they’re still not yours.”

Liu Daneng laughed and said, “But the problem is, what if no one likes you?”

“Well… hahaha… If I knew, I wouldn’t still be single at thirty-five years old… A person half-buried in the ground, who would fancy me?”

Liu Daneng said, “Staying at home all the time definitely won’t work.”

“I’ve been working all along, it’s just that the company’s performance hasn’t been good in the past year, and I got laid off.”

“Ordinary companies won’t do. You need to go to a company with a human touch, where colleagues generally value life. Just in time, I’m planning to apply to Green Water Group, are you interested?”

“Damn, I can’t take serving people!”

“Then just wait and see if I can introduce you.”

“That’d be great…”

…

They kept drinking more and more.

Liu Daneng’s emotions also rose.

“Actually, I got married at eighteen, in rural countryside… A few years after marriage, she started having online relationships with others, feeling increasingly humiliated in the poor countryside, and then she ran away. Later on, I went to great lengths to find her; she had a child with someone. At that time, I was stupid, and the hometown kept saying that marrying a wife wasn’t easy, or I’d be a bachelor my whole life…”

“Then how did you end up abroad?”

“To earn money abroad. She said the second child would be mine.”

“What?”

“You know, people are like this; when they’re poor, they have no dignity whatsoever. She introduced me to go abroad, too. In the first few years abroad, the money I earned went straight to her. Later, I found out, the agent was one of her lovers, not only took my earnings, but she also took half the agency fee. By the time I realized it, she’d already had the second child…”

“Brother, let’s not talk about this anymore. Actually, it’s okay now, you’re not that old.”

“I’ve come to terms with those things. The main thing is my parents, who are still believing her lies, saying the child is mine, working terribly hard every year in the hometown to earn tens of thousands, all subsidised to her.”

“Why?”

“Because they fear being talked about! They fear being talked about for having no descendants! Even if they know it’s not their flesh and blood, they still grit their teeth to acknowledge it…”

Fang City was at a loss for words.

If Liu Daneng hadn’t had this opportunity to make a lot of money, his second half of life would be incredibly painful.

Saving over a million abroad seems like a lot, but it’s actually nothing at all, just over a million, which certainly isn’t enough.

Many people are not aware of the wealth they own, like the house in their hometown, a young body, healthy psychology, even open-minded parents, even good interpersonal relationships. These are all intangible assets, and many times money cannot measure them.

When all of these are gone, life becomes immensely painful.

Abroad is also painful, but at least you don’t have to face it.

Returning home means facing all these; the comfort brought by a little money is simply not enough.

Comparatively, at least his parents are decent, and they are a few years younger too.

He has a house, a car, millions in cash, and pretty good social relationships.

In fact, many people in the group are almost the same, either downcast in midlife or faced with significant life blows.

Otherwise, why would anyone pin hopes on others, why would someone study those mystical things every day?

Li Yang had never mentioned any passwords; it was just that previously everyone hadn’t made a mistake, so they kept believing.

Just like praying before every exam, and then scoring high, and over time it becomes dependence.

Just this time…

…

Li Yang’s little secretary came to work.

Began screening some consultation content for him, finally sending them to his email.

After receiving the email, Li Yang would find time to look at it on the same day, replying if possible, if not, he’d mark it read but not reply, which the little secretary naturally understood what it meant.

After taking a look, it was pretty much the same as before.

There were consultations about entrepreneurial directions, asset allocation inquiries, questions about job prospects, etc…

These people mostly had net worths of tens of millions to billions, unwilling to settle for their current lives, seeking change.

Some with wilder approaches were asking about whether setting up a second floor in a bathhouse project was profitable, and the little secretary specifically showed it to him, not knowing what it meant.

Li Yang thought of the Boeing matter.

“Damn, could it be that my followers are really this dumb?”

He thought he had already shown it very clearly.

If there weren’t any restrictions on increasing holdings of 88.6 billion US Dollars in a day, he would definitely go for it directly.

After pondering, he still sent a message to the little secretary.

“Check if there are consultations related to stocks, like Boeing, organize a document of them for me.”

The time left for both sides was not much, the money of those fans was not a trivial sum.

Taking advantage of the moment, he could still fleece Wall Street to boost the market.
