Future News: My Phone Mutated Novel - Chapter 60
Chapter 60: Might As Well Make A Big Bet
Lin Bai noticed that ever since Luo Yang yelled at him to stop him, everyone’s attention had been focused on him.
They even pretended to be nonchalant as they approached him.
Lin Bai knew that they were actually just pretending to look at the material. In fact, they wanted to join in the fun.
However, Lin Bai didn’t care about them. He just smiled calmly at Luo Yang and said, “I think this material will make a lot of money if I buy it.”
“Why do you think so?” Luo Yang asked.
Luo Yang wasn’t the only one who wanted to know the answer to that question. It was also a question that all the jade merchants who were watching the fun wanted to ask.
Facing this question, Lin Bai couldn’t give the real answer.
After all, owning the Future News app was his biggest secret, and no one could find out.
So Lin Bai could only give a vague answer, “Intuition.”
Luo Yang almost vomited blood from the two words.
The surrounding jade merchants who were watching the show all rolled their eyes and ridiculed in their hearts.
There was even someone who couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
In their eyes, relying on their so-called intuition, they had spent hundreds of millions of dollars and risked their lives to buy a piece of material that they couldn’t tell if it was good or bad.
This was pure idiocy.
Lin Bai heard that person’s mocking laughter, but he didn’t take it to heart.
However, Luo Yang was anxious.
He roared at that person, “What are you laughing at? What’s so funny? It’s none of your business!”
The man was rebuked and immediately retorted, “It’s none of your business whether I laugh or not. what do you care?”
Luo Yang was so angry that he wanted to hit him.
If others were to laugh at him, it would be fine. He could just ignore it but if they were to laugh at his godlike boss in front of him, that would not do!
Lin Bai did not want to cause any trouble. He patted Luo Yang on the shoulder and said in a low voice, “Forget it. We’re not familiar with this place. Don’t get into a conflict with others.”
Only then did Luo Yang suppress his anger and continue to persuade Lin Bai.
He moved closer to Lin Bai and said in a low voice, “Boss, although those people are quite annoying, they are all experts in dealing with jade.”
“If even they don’t buy this material, it means that the risk is not ordinary.”
“We don’t have any experience in this area. Let’s not take the risk!”
“Just listen to my advice. Even if you really want to buy it, you should buy the cut material. You can at least see what kind of material is inside, right?”
Luo Yang thought very simply. If Lin Bai insisted on buying a piece of material just for fun, he should at least reduce the loss to the minimum.
Even if it was a loss to buy the cut material, it should not be too much of a loss.
With Lin Bai’s wealth and ability to earn money, he should be able to bear it.
However, Lin Bai said, “No, I don’t think those are worth as much as this piece.”
Luo Yang was speechless and ridiculed, “Where did you find out that this thing is worth money!”
Lin Bai still replied, “Intuition.”
“…”
Luo Yang was completely speechless. He even felt like vomiting blood.
However, what made him want to vomit blood was still to come.
Lin Bai asked him, “Didn’t you say that you wanted me to bring you along to earn money? I really think that this piece of material can be extremely profitable. Do you want to buy it with me?”
Luo Yang glanced at the price tag. The long string of zeros made him Dizzy.
“A base price of over 100 million… I can’t afford that much money.”
Luo Yang said weakly.
Lin Bai said, “It’s okay. You can take as much as you want. It’s up to you.”
“If you really think it’s too risky, I can buy it myself.”
The Money in Lin Bai’s card was enough to buy this material. He didn’t need Luo Yang’s help.
He just wanted to give Luo Yang a chance and bring him along to make money.
Even if Luo Yang only offered one yuan, Lin Bai would accept it and give him a corresponding proportion of the money.
Luo Yang was in a dilemma.
On one hand, he truly felt that the risk of gambling on stones was too high.
Especially for stones which interior couldn’t be seen at all, the risk was so high that it was like going into outer space.
But on the other hand, he felt that since Lin Bai was so insistent, there might be a reason behind it.
Lin Bai’s past achievements had already convinced Luo Yang of his investment vision.
Lin Bai had never come into contact with cryptocurrency before, and his first investment had earned him a hundred times more.
At that time, Dogecoin was also looked down upon by everyone. Only Lin Bai insisted that the Dogecoin could soar.
Later on, it was the same for Yunding Villa. The people in the industry all avoided it. Only Lin Bai saw his potential and directly bought it at a very low price.
In the end, after he bought it, not only was there a change in policy, but he also discovered gold and rare earth mines. He even made a lot of money.
All of this made Luo Yang feel that Lin Bai’s intuition was just as accurate as his judgment and courage.
Otherwise, how could he explain why he could create miracles again and again?
Perhaps he could create a miracle that everyone couldn’t believe, just like before.
As Luo Yang thought so, the balance in his heart had unconsciously tilted in Lin Bai’s direction.
“I’m going all out!”
Luo Yang had already decided to buy together with Lin Bai.
Besides having foresight, one also had to have courage.
If one was extremely timid and paranoid, it would be impossible to make money.
In any case, he believed that with his foresight in investing in cryptocurrency, even if he lost in stone speculation, he could still earn back the money in cryptocurrency.
Since that was the case, what was there to be afraid of?
Thinking of this, Luo Yang made up his mind and said to Lin Bai, “I’m willing to buy it with you!”
“I know, even if I don’t pay, Boss, you can still buy this piece of material by yourself.”
“By asking me to pay, you’re actually giving me a chance, I understand!”
“I have a total of 500,000 in my card now, this is all I have, put it all in!”
Since he was going to bet, he might as well take a big gamble!
Although Lin Bai had guessed that Luo Yang would probably be willing to buy it together with him.
But he never expected that Luo Yang would have the courage to directly put all of his assets in.
Lin Bai couldn’t help but ask him, “You’re putting all of your assets in, aren’t you taking a little too big of a gamble?”
“If I’m wrong, we might lose everything. At that time, you won’t even have the money to turn things around.”
“Are you sure you don’t want to leave yourself some capital just in case?”
Luo Yang shook his head and said, “No.”
“Since I choose to believe you, I might as well believe it to the end.”
“Boss, almost every time you invested previously, everyone was not optimistic about your decision but you ended up making a huge profit every single time in the end.”
“That’s why I believe in your vision and your intuition. It’s definitely not wrong to follow your tips!”
“To say the least, even if I lose a cent, I won’t be able to make it back. At worst, I’ll take a part-time job to earn money and start from scratch as I did in high school.”
