Chapter 24 Neighbor With Evil Intentions

Lance had been paying attention to the stock market.

Now that the timeline was brought forward, he could benefit a lot from the stock market.

There were not many good opportunities to earn money, so how could he give them up? For example, recently, Lance discovered that the price of red wine in the market had soared. “Red wine soaring? What a great opportunity.” In the room, Lance sat in front of the computer, a smile involuntarily appearing at the corner of her mouth.

The comprehensive external factors had driven the significant increase in stock prices. This was a good time to buy stocks!

If he didn’t buy it now, when would he?

“System, check the risks and interest rates of red wine stocks.”

As Lance spoke, the system displayed all the information in front of him.

After observation, Lance made a simple summary.

He found that the stocks bought in the early stage had low risk and high returns, and that was a good time to buy them.

However, there was a qualitative change in the later stage.

Not only did the risk rise rapidly, but the returns also plummeted.

Lance rubbed his chin and thought about it.

It was probably that the excessive hype of red wine in the early stage had led to the rise of the stock price.

But what went up must come down, it was common for things to suffer a backlash in the later period.

After thinking it through, Lance still did not give up on buying stocks.

The decline in stock prices was a matter for the future. The most important thing now was to earn money.

He just had to find the right time to cash out the money.

After a series of familiar operations, Lance successfully bought the stocks.

Then, he stood up and had a stretch.

Lance got up and walked slowly to the window.

The sunshine felt good. Standing by the window, he could overlook the scenery below.

Long hours of sitting in front of the computer caused Lance’s eyes to feel sore. At this moment, looking at the scenery gave his tired eyes some rest.

At the same time, the gentle breeze was comfortable, blowing into the bedroom.

This gust of wind dispersed Lance’s fatigue, and he became much more clear-headed.

Lately, when Lance had some free time, he liked to think about the future.

Presently, his operation had already gained benefits in the field of stocks. He had also become the “Stock Genius” as proclaimed by the netizens.

This operation could be said to be a win-win situation.

However, Lance also knew that he could not just focus on the stocks alone.

Using different means is the right way, Lance began to think about it.

He thought that since the system could analyze data such as the risk ratio and other statistics, perhaps investing in real estates, gold, silver, and jade might also be good ideas.

Over time, he could accumulate a huge amount of capital.

By then, starting a company with this money would be the long-term solution.

Lance’s eyes were full of longing, and he was increasingly looking forward to a better future. Ten minutes later, after getting enough rest, Lance sat in front of the computer again and started analyzing other stocks.

After receiving the complete analysis data from the system, Lance found several good investment opportunities here.

These stocks had been continuously hitting the limit up, which could also bring him considerable profits.

Thinking up to this point, Lance did not hesitate and chose to make the purchase.

In just one week, through continuous buying and selling, Lance made a whopping six million yuan in profit.

With six million in his account, Lance breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction. On the other side, the neighbors next to the school district house that Lance bought were sitting in a group at this moment. This family currently only had two elderly people and one child who was their grandson. An eight-year-old boy, who was the same age as Lance, was playing happily on the ground, piecing together blocks.

A heavy sigh came from the room.

“Why can a brat get so popular? And make so much money, obviously it’s all marketing.” The elderly woman with white-hair rolled her eyes and grumbled, “My eldest grandson is so outstanding, but he didn’t become the so-called ‘Stock Genius’. That dim-witted child from his family, at most, just hit the jackpot!” After she finished speaking, her fingers impatiently tapped on the table, making a rhythmic sound.

Two words: “Very Noisy.”

The word “jealousy” was practically engraved on her face.

Not a family, not in the same house. The old man sitting across from her displayed an equally mean expression.

He also sneered. “They’re just lucky. Why are they being praised by those ignorant youngsters? They appear on television every day. They’re so annoying.”

“Even if that’s the case that they’re still so stingy, without even considering giving some gifts to future neighbors, we should aim to make a hefty profit from them!” After the old man finished complaining, his wife thought of something and instantly revealed a greedy expression.

“What’s wrong?” Seeing this, the old man asked with a puzzled expression. The old lady’s eyes lit up.

“I know how to make a fortune!”

[fuzzy]”Knock knock knock!”

The sudden knock on the door made Fred and Helen look away from the TV screen. After putting on her slippers and walking to the door, Helen leaned closer to the peephole to observe.

She frowned when she saw two unfamiliar old people standing at the door. “Who is it?”

“We, as an old couple, are your future neighbors.”

The old lady had a kind attitude, but for some reason, Helen felt uncomfortable with her smile. Fred frowned and joined Helen. At that moment, Lance also turned off his computer and came out of the room. Helen opened the door. “Hello, may I know if you have come for an important matter to discuss?”

The community had already established a group of owners. If they wanted to contact them, they could contact them on their phones.

Hence, Fred and Helen could not help but feel doubtful.

Was there something so important that they had to pay a sudden visit?

“It’s like this.” The old lady had a glib tongue.

She cleared her throat. “As you know, the house we bought has increased in value. You bought three houses and your family cannot possibly occupy them all. Why don’t you sell us two?”

Helen thought that they were here to discuss buying a house. After all, Lance happened to be in the market for a house. Until she heard the next sentence- “We’ll buy it at the original price.”

“Acquisition at the original price?” Fred beat her to it. “This… we can’t agree. We’ll sell the house at the market price.”

“Let me analyze it for you first.”

The old lady was not discouraged. She waved her hand and said, “Although your child is powerful now, he won’t have much future in the long run. He might as well sell a house and keep the money. He still has a way out in the future.”

“We’re neighbors of your new house. When we bought the house, it was only a few thousand yuan per square meter. Now that we’re buying your house in passing, don’t we have to buy it at the original price?”

“I don’t care how much it costs outside. Just 5,000 yuan per square meter. I’ll buy it at full price. You can sign the contract now, right?”

Helen and Fred fell silent at the old lady’s words. ‘What kind of train of thought is that?’ Moreover, criticizing Lance for his lack of prospects in the future in the process was something Fred and Helen couldn’t tolerate.

Helen’s expression changed. “I said I wouldn’t sell it.”

“You can leave our house now!” Helen’s words revealed a hint of coldness.

“No, why don’t you know what’s good for you?

I gave you a suggestion out of kindness, but you still…”

Before the old lady could finish speaking, a loud bang followed.

Fred directly closed the door directly, isolating them outside.

“In this day and age, there are all kinds of weirdos.”
