The first week after the 2029 Gregorian New Year.
To Lu Cheng's delight, he received three payments in a row.
The first amount came from the endorsement fees from three foreign brand companies, namely Adidas, Mercedes-Benz and the fashion king Breoni. Although the endorsement fees were only for the first half of the year, the total amount reached 210 million. This is not all the companies he endorses. In addition to these three, there are four domestic companies, namely Xiaomi, Anta, Youngor and Ping An Insurance.
Foreign companies act quickly and pay the money according to the agreement. Domestic companies have to wait a while, and the money will arrive in about one or two months.
The second payment came from the sale of a portion of fine jadeite at the Magic City auction, totaling 170 million yuan.
The third payment, which came from the dividends from the furniture store, was sent by his father Lu Tianming, which amounted to more than 70 million yuan.
These sums added up to a total of 450 million, which made Lu Cheng's wallet bulge again.
He opened the stock trading software and looked at the stock price of "Daqin Technology". It was currently 3.72 yuan. There were large selling orders above the market opening, with a total of more than 50,000 lots from 3.73 to 3.75. So he placed an order of 100,000 lots with a price limit of 3.75 yuan. In an instant, 53,000 lots were traded! There are still 47,000 untraded lots, which forms support at 3.75 yuan. This support was not very reliable. Although it was not broken that day, all transactions were completed the next day!
The next day, Lu Cheng placed another 100,000 orders, with a price limit of 3.76 yuan, an increase of one penny. However, the transaction of these 100,000 lots was very slow, and no transaction was completed after another week.
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "I want to buy some stocks, why is it so difficult? Not to mention I don't have much money, even if I have a lot of money, it will be difficult to control the market with this buying method."
So, he simply canceled the order and stopped buying it!
He began to ponder the "Five Qi Returning Technique" and tried to practice it for three days. He felt that the speed of practicing this technique was more than 10 times faster than the "Qi Nourishing Technique"!
Therefore, he taught Jiang Qiuyun the "Five Qi Returning Technique" and asked her to abandon the "Qi Nourishing Technique" and practice this new technique.
The weekly guqin lessons continue.
Jiang Qiuyun started writing a new book titled "Catkins Blow Up in the Wind". This is not a simple romance book, but similar to a time-travel historical drama. It is about a modern woman who traveled to the Jin Dynasty and became Xie Daoyun.
Xie Daoyun, courtesy name Lingjiang, was a poetess of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the daughter of General Xie Yi of Anxi, the niece of the politician Xie An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the wife of Wang Ningzhi, and the daughter-in-law of Wang Xizhi.
Xie Daoyun was erudite, intelligent and talented. He won praise from Xie An for reciting the sentence "It's not like catkins blowing in the wind" on a snowy day, and later generations called women's literary talent "the talent of singing catkins". After the wedding, Wang Xianzhi, the brother of her husband Wang Ningzhi, was discussing with the guests and was about to give up his words. Xie Daoyun participated in the discussion behind the Qingling barrier and used Wang Xian's previous discussion. The guests could not be wronged. His eloquence is unmatched by men. Later, during the Sun En Uprising, her husband and son were both killed by the rebels. She led her maids into the enemy group with swords and killed several people with her hands. He was later captured, but he was loyal and unyielding. He was released by Sun En and returned to his hometown. He has been living as a widow in Kuaiji.
Xie Daoyun has a noble charm, and Xie An calls her "elegant and profound". Jini often praised: "Mrs. Wang has a relaxed expression, so she has the atmosphere of the forest." From then on, women were praised for being transcendent and refined, and the metaphor of "wind under the forest" was often used. The original collection of poems, poems and odes written by Xie Daoyun has been lost, and only a few pieces remain today.
There are not many poets and chivalrous women like her.
Jiang Qiuyun spent half a month conceiving, and then coded quickly. She sat in front of the computer for four hours every night and was able to code more than 100,000 words. If she didn't go out on the weekend, she could code for 10 hours in one breath. Publish 250,000 words!
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
She is not like ordinary Internet authors who publish as much as they write.
Her third book, "Red Leaf Screen Window Dawn", has been completed a long time ago, and she has given it to the editor to control the pace. She publishes 10,000 words every day, and there are still 2 million words left to be published. In other words, she has the equivalent of 200 days of manuscripts.
Therefore, she can take her time when writing a new book. After she is ready to write it, she can refine it several times before publishing it.
To some extent, this is not a network, but more like an entity taking the publishing route.
Why can’t the Internet be upgraded?
Because I write and publish at the same time, I don’t have time to revise. The latter part of my writing often contradicts the previous part, leaving many loopholes that cannot be justified.
After the entity is written, it is carefully revised and then published.
Jiang Qiuyun wanted to improve her own level and leave behind works that could withstand scrutiny.
She wants to win several literary awards in her lifetime!
Saturday, January 18th.
Jiang Qiuyun invited several friends to her home, including Zhang Min, Hong Qingni, Kong Minzhan, and Luo Yuzhu.
Because she will transfer to another school after the Spring Festival, this is considered a farewell party.
Dishes are delivered directly from the restaurant! Also preparing to grill some beef and mutton.
Zhang Min said: "Where is your husband? Why is he nowhere to be seen?"
Jiang Qiuyun replied: "I kicked him out and kept him at home as an eyesore!"
Hong Qingni smiled and said, "Are you a hidden beauty in a golden house, locking Lu Cheng in the basement?"
"How can I lock him?"
"Lu Cheng is not here, who will grill all the marinated meat?"
"We bake it ourselves, it's not difficult."
"Qiuyun, I envy you so much. You are about to escape the sea of suffering."
"What does it mean to escape the sea of suffering? I just transferred to another school, and my future studies will not be easy."
These girls, all majoring in nursing, were complaining all over the place. Because they are in their third year, they will have to go on clinical internship soon. During a whole year of internship, they not only have to work night shifts, but also encounter various challenges. This job is not easy.
But, then again, if a woman works hard outside, which job is easier?
Lu Cheng was bored and went to the "Deheng Jade Shop" at the west gate of Hero Mountain Cultural Market alone.
He walked into the store and asked the middle-aged shop owner: "Are there any new goods recently?"
The store owner replied: "There is a new batch of goods every quarter, otherwise, my store will not be able to open."
Lu Cheng said: "I want to see the good things you have collected. Forget about the bricks and mortar outside."
"Then come to the inner room."
"Brother, what's your surname?"
"My surname is Zheng, Zheng Sanhuai. What do you call your little brother?"
"My surname is Lu."
Lu Cheng walked into the inner room and saw a row of shelves against the wall, with many small pieces of rough stone on them. There were also more than a dozen large stones on the ground, most of which had been cut. It was clear at a glance whether they contained jade or not. Lu Cheng wouldn't even bother to look at cut jade like this if it were anywhere else, because there's really no profit to be made from the genuine article.
But this time he was bored, so he took a look at each one.
He saw a large stone, about 250 kilograms, with one side cut open, revealing its glutinous jade flesh and a green line, only half a centimeter wide and stretching for more than a foot.
He asked: "How to sell this piece?"
Zheng Sanhuai replied: "This is a good piece of material! It is waxy with green flowers and is not cracked. It is an authentic bracelet material. A bracelet like this sells for 30,000 to 50,000 yuan! How many bracelets can be made from such a big stone? So if you want to buy it If so, at least 7.5 million!”
Lu Cheng curled his lips: "You are a glutinous rice species, not a glutinous ice species! There is only one green line, and it cannot be sold at a high price! I can only offer 1 million!"
"impossible!"
After a few minutes of bargaining, the final transaction price was 3.5 million.
