Chapter 1693: I Am the Genius

This is also why Xu Ke says he only knows a little, but he actually knows a bit more.

Although earning the two billion was largely due to luck, it also proves his keen insight.

He believes if he started an investment company, he’d be making money hand over fist.

After all, this industry is truly lucrative; once profitable, the money flows like water.

Now that Xiao Keyi is starting a company, Xu Ke has decided to use part of his funds as its startup capital.

Even if this money is lost, it doesn’t matter—he has plenty of money, and this amount doesn’t concern him.

Perhaps these figures may seem astronomical to others, but to him, they’re just numbers.

Xu Ke is no longer sure how much he has in assets, but he thinks his net worth would rank in the world’s top ten.

He’s not bragging; that’s just the capacity he’s reached.

And that’s just his personal assets, not including his shares in the Xu Group or its overall valuation.

It’s worth noting, when the senior Mr. Xu retired, he transferred all his shares to his grandson.

In other words, Xu Ke is now the largest shareholder of the Xu Group.

He almost holds the fate of the Xu Group in his hands.

"You don’t have to worry about funding. Just tell me how much you need."

Xiao Keyi was worrying about funding, as he didn’t have much money at hand.

But seeing his man being so straightforward, Xiao Keyi was delighted, his smile blooming.

It’s known to all women that men are most attractive when spending money on them.

This is universal, regardless of the woman or man.

However, Xiao Keyi then started to worry, because starting a company requires a lot of money.

He knows Xu Ke isn’t short of cash, but he fears Xu Ke might not be able to gather that much.

After all, Xiao Keyi never knew exactly how much money Xu Ke had, as he never discussed it with him.

To ordinary people, this might seem incredible, but it’s very common for them.

They no longer measure life by money; it’s merely a number to them, so they don’t care about amounts.

That’s why at this moment, Xiao Keyi had such thoughts.

"Xu Ke, you might not understand this field. As far as I know, starting such a company requires at least five billion. Do you have that much cash? If not, don’t strain yourself."

"Five billion?"

Xu Ke initially wondered how much was needed, only to realize it was just this amount.

Before, he would have considered it a lot, but now it’s merely a number to him.

Maybe he could earn that five billion back in just a few hours.

"Don’t worry about it; isn’t it just five billion? I’ll have someone send it to you later. I thought it was a significant amount—tell me if you need more."

Xu Ke’s casualness left Xiao Keyi stunned, wondering if he was hallucinating; how could Xu Ke speak so lightly?

He knows Xu Ke is wealthy, but five billion is another concept entirely.

Even a regular company would scrutinize such a large-scale transaction closely.

And money in the Xu Group doesn’t automatically represent Xu Ke’s funds.

It could be from other investors or shareholders.

But seeing Xu Ke’s calm demeanor, Xiao Keyi knew he wasn’t lying.

Yet he was utterly curious when did his boyfriend become so wealthy?

"Xu Ke, this is five billion! You mustn’t use the company’s funds; can’t involve the company."

Xiao Keyi doesn’t want his matters to affect the Xu Group; he knows the group is finally on track, and it’s not easy.

"What are you talking about? Why would I use the company’s funds for this? Do you underestimate your boyfriend or think I’m worthless in your eyes? Five billion is just a few hours’ earnings—don’t worry."

To dispel doubts, Xu Ke immediately contacted the Swiss Bank.

Bigger transactions need personal confirmation by phone.

Soon, Xiao Keyi heard his phone ring.

Upon checking, he discovered it was a transaction message.

Just a minute ago, Xu Ke had sent him five billion through the Swiss Bank.

Seeing this, Xiao Keyi was dumbfounded.

He couldn’t believe Xu Ke transferred the money without a moment of hesitation.

He was eager to know, how wealthy was his boyfriend?

Though money was just digits to them, he was keen to find out.

"Xu Ke, come clean—exactly how much money do you have? You just dolled out five billion without a blink."

Xu Ke didn’t know how to answer.

Previously, he calculated but wasn’t sure exactly how wealthy he was. To him, it’s just numbers.

These figures were bothersome; he didn’t feel like managing them.

He receives no less than 80 notifications of asset growth daily.

Xu Ke is busy all day; who has time to check them all?

"I really don’t know how much I have. You name it; I probably have it. But I can only access a few hundred billion now, as most are invested, requiring time for turnover."

In investment, though Xu Ke knows just a little—he’s a novice.

However, his grandfather was experienced.

Once, Xu Ke insisted on learning during an afternoon session.

This was strictly for personal investment; he knows nothing about corporate finance.

With Xu’s guidance, Xu Ke’s assets grew exponentially.

For convenience, he even invested his grandfather’s money.

The elder had no objections as it was under his name and earnings were his.

He was surprised; every day after he taught Xu Ke, he received SMS transfers.

Within a month, he’s gotten billions in transfers.

Mei Xu, looking at these texts daily, felt numb.

He never expected to accumulate wealth effortlessly post-retirement.
