Next.
The whole afternoon.
Tang Qing was in a state of excitent.
The assistance functions at Level 2 are truly extraordinary. With this rate of making money, even if it doesn’t reach the sensational five percent, earning two percent, and making ten transactions a day, would still add up to over twenty percent.
Minus the cost of exchanging foreign currencies
It should still be at least twenty percent, right?
Against this rate of return, any financial statents of fund properties would need to kowtow, full respect at that.
He had already decided that as soon as he unlocked another currency, once he’d saved up so money, he’d open an account abroad, especially for these sort of arbitrage transactions.
He had asked.
The system’s number of external personal accounts that could be linked was determined by its level.
At Level 1, only one account could be linked per country, and could be changed once a month.
At Level 2, he could link two accounts in each country where the currency was available, aning Tang Qing could currently link two accounts in both China and the United States, a total of four accounts, and transactions could be entirely left to the system.
These accounts could be opened in Tang Qing’s na or not.
Of course.
They had to be under Tang Qing’s control.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be nonsense to link an account of a rich person?
In the short term.
He’d be wary of getting involved in such arbitrage transactions.
Because our country implents foreign exchange control, the bank’s regulation on such transactions is too strict, basically impossible to operate.
If he’s flagged as a key surveillance target for money laundering or so other cris, he’d be in a tragedy because he simply can’t prove where the money cos from.
So.
In his opinion,
For now, it’s safer not to involve RMB.
Anyway, the system had also said that each level would unlock a currency, so all he could do was to wait, the most important thing now was to increase his own capital, his assets were still too few, so leveling up earnestly was the real journey.
It’s just that leveling up now is a bit slow.
The 200 experience points needed for Level 2 was a bit much.
But there was no way, unless he chose to level up before the assessnt, otherwise, he could only wait until next month to refresh the quota and tasks. As for when the next upgrade would occur, it was yet unknown.
...
Today.
Qin Yugang had already returned ho early.
After transferring the case in the afternoon, he had nothing to do.
Knowing he would be taking over Guo Cheng’s position, many people wanted to treat him to dinner. But he rejected them all today; his mind filled with doubts, he urgently wanted to talk to Tang Qing.
"Brother, eat faster, let’s do our howork together after eating," Qin Shiqi urged Tang Qing.
"Shiqi, slow down, you’re a big girl now, don’t be so impatient, learn from your younger sister," her aunt said with a helpless look.
She had repeated these words countless tis, but Qin Shiqi had always done things her own way, not taking it to heart. Her eldest daughter had always been rash and spontaneous, doing everything quickly.
"I don’t want to though, if I were like Shiyu, I’d die of anxiety, so slow. Shiyu, you should eat like , it’s more satisfying," Qin Shiqi said, covering her mouth full with rice.
Qin Shiyu on the side just gave a soft laugh.
She still took small bites, chewing her food slowly and didn’t speak.
Both Tang Qing and his aunt felt helpless about this, the two sisters were completely at two extres, one liked to talk but didn’t do much, the other was quiet and preferred to act.
Their mother couldn’t rest easy no matter which one it was.
Especially the younger daughter.
With her personality, it’s easy for her to get scamd. When she gets married, she’ll inevitably endure her husband’s family’s bullying, and she, with her thin skin, won’t speak up. Like her older sister, they’re obstinate and won’t listen.
In one word, worry.
Throughout dinner.
Qin Yugang didn’t say much.
He seed to be lost in thought, periodically glancing over at Tang Qing.
Tang Qing knew this ti would co. His uncle was sure to want to have a talk with him, especially after Li Jianguo had given his statent at the station. It felt like many things were soon to be uncovered.
Of course.
The strange atmosphere between Tang Qing and Qin Yugang was only noticed by their aunt.
The two cousins were young and their focus was different.
The elder cousin was the cheerful one in the family.
Tang Qing enjoyed this atmosphere very much and hoped it could continue. However, once they start college and work, everyone will be in different places, these chances to gather together would be less and less. Tang Qing was a little sad at the thought of this.
There’s no banquet that doesn’t end.
Eventually, his own family would leave too.
His own cousins would also get married.
After starting university, it would be difficult to see Uncle and his family every day, unlike now.
With these thoughts in mind, he decides to cherish the remaining half-year with his family. Only after you lose sothing do you realize its importance and only after sothing is over do you savour it. Perhaps this is an inevitable life lesson for everyone.
"Shiqi, later you can do your howork by yourself, I need to have a talk with Tangtang." Qin Yugang spoke up.
After dinner.
Qin Yugang took Tang Qing for a stroll outside the neighborhood.
It was still daylight, the two walked along the roadside, neither of them breaking the silence.
"Tangtang, tell , how did you know that those people were criminals?" Qin Yugang was the first to ask.
"A friend shared the case details during a casual conversation, I rembered it, then by chance I saw the jade pendant, I figured I could help uncle a bit at that ti." Tang Qing quickly made up an answer.
"Friend? What friend?" Qin Yugang asked.
"Do you rember the phone and clothes I got last ti, a few days ago he passed by and treated to a al, he ntioned it over casual chatter."
"Didn’t you say before that you have no contact with him?"
"He has a relatively high-profile position, so he wants to keep a low profile, I hope uncle can understand."
"What is your relationship with Li Jianguo?" Qin Yugang changed the topic, Tang Qing has been visiting that restaurant frequently these days, which seed unusual to him. What did Tang Qing have to do with Li Jianguo’s restaurant?
"I have shares in the restaurant." Tang Qing hesitated for a mont before biting the bullet and answering. He would eventually have to reveal this, as he has increasingly more money, it would be necessary to confess to his relatives.
Soti or another.
Upon hearing this.
Qin Yugang stopped walking.
He stared seriously at Tang Qing, "Where did you get that money?"
He was terrified that Tang Qing had embarked on a criminal path.
"A friend lent it to , his family is very rich and he wanted to help, he doesn’t require interest and I can pay him back anyti. I didn’t tell you before because I wanted to try investing by myself without you taking the money away." Tang Qing explained.
"Can you tell who he is?" Qin Yugang asked, he was really worried.
"I’m sorry, uncle, I can’t. He asked to keep it a secret but rest assured, this money is completely legal, after all, I don’t really have anything a person would want to exploit, it’s purely out of gratitude." Tang Qing refused.
"Can you really not worry?"
Qin Yugang sighed.
A friend he knew nothing about, even if they were rich, he knew the world was filled with deceit, his biggest fear was that this person would use Tang Qing for illegal purposes.
"Uncle, you have to trust . I’m just a student, I’ve also helped him out significantly, this amount of money really isn’t worth ntioning, and besides, I’m not so easily fooled." Tang Qing assured.
"Okay, in future if anything happens you can tell uncle about it, even though uncle might not be able to help, he could be of so use, next week I’ll be transferred to West City police station as the director." Qin Yugang said.
Since Tang Qing wasn’t going to disclose anything further, he decided not to ask anymore.
Gauging the current situation.
He no longer considered Tang Qing a child.
"Congratulations uncle, rember to take care of the restaurant business when you’re there." Tang Qing joked, although he had already anticipated it, he couldn’t help but feel happy that his uncle got promoted.
"How’s the restaurant doing, how much money do you make every month?" Qin Yugang asked again.
"I’ve invested three hundred thousand, this month’s dividend should be around fifty or sixty thousand." Tang Qing stated.
"That much, won’t you make your money back very quickly then?" Qin Yugang was surprised, he hadn’t expected the restaurant’s profit to be so high.
"It’s not much, this amount of money is really insignificant." Tang Qing replied. This was genuinely what he felt; even tens of thousands is not a big amount to him, he feels he’s earning money rather slowly.
"You little brat, this isn’t much? Don’t get too greedy, this alone would cover your uncle’s household inco for two years." Qin Yugang patted Tang Qing on the head.
"No matter how much money I have, I’m still your nephew. If uncle ever needs money, just let know."
"Alright, I won’t say much more, but rember, education is paramount. Rember the saying, all worldly matters are trivial compared to acquiring knowledge" Qin Yugang earnestly advised.
"Uncle, why are you still holding onto these outdated thoughts?"
"How could this be an outdated thought? The so-called ’old wine in a new bottle’, there are many ways to interpret this proverb. In my opinion, this phrase doesn’t an you should be exam-oriented, or that you should pursue academic qualifications. What’s ’reading’ here refers to acquiring insights, experiences, and lessons from those who ca before.
No matter what, only by learning and improving can you go further.
Another interpretation is since ancient tis, dostically and internationally, the power of the entire society is nearly always held by intellectuals. Even after a commoner becos an emperor, his descendants would also constantly learn to consolidate their power.
Rember.
This society’s power.
Whether it’s political, military, or economical; it will only be held by this group of people. To not be eliminated, or to avoid becoming re screws, you must learn, you must improve." As Qin Yugang said this while they were walking.
Though he was stern.
He was not stupid.
He was aware of many things but chose not to voice them. This is the first ti he has shared these insights with soone. In his view, once a person truly matures, this kind of perspective would be quite common, and not particularly special.
"I understand, even if I earn a lot of money, I won’t give up studying. In the future, I will definitely get into a good university." Tang Qing asserted with conviction. Having lived two lifetis, he naturally understood what his uncle ant.
He also agreed with Qin Yugang’s interpretation of the phrase.
The brutal experiences of those before him exhibited in front of them.
It could save people from many mistakes, but most people do not like to read about these things, or they think that in the modern knowledge explosion era, their minds are restless, ambitious, and find it hard to settle down to study and learn.
In the end, they learn after they have made mistakes and gained experience, and then pass on these experiences to their descendants. But their descendants slight it as outdated, and then... it becos an endless cycle.
"Okay, it’s getting late. Go back and do your howork." Qin Yugang knew that Tang Qing was taking his words to heart.
He was afraid that once his nephew had a bit of money, he would think about not studying and start to slack off. If that happens, he would not be able to justify it to his sister. His expectations for this nephew of his were very high.
After this round of truth-telling.
A dramatic change was taking place in Tang Qing’s mind.
