Chapter 480: Even a Mosquito's Leg Is Still Meat
Online, netizens everywhere are discussing Xu Mo's latest investment news.
"Holy crap, five million bought thirty percent of the shares—this is a massive steal!"
"The prospects of this game company are limitless; at this pace, even with a few more years, five million probably wouldn't even buy one percent of the scattered shares."
"Is it really that exaggerated? Do game developers make that much money?"
"No kidding! Just look at the game—so hot right after release, a solid Money Tree. I bet in a year or two, the shares Xu Mo bought for five million could be worth fifty billion!"
"Fifty billion? Brother, you're underestimating this company. If all their games are this level, within five years the five million Xu Mo invested could multiply ten thousand times!"
"Five million times ten thousand? That would be… five hundred billion?!"
"Damn… why didn't I ever get a chance like this? If I'd known, I'd have sold all my car and house to invest in this company!"
"Five hundred billion?! Is it still possible for me to sell my house and buy a car to get in now? I don't need ten thousand times; ten times would satisfy me."
"Stop dreaming, brother. All the big investors are already eyeing this juicy piece; the money you could raise by selling house and car is already too little for them. If you still want to get in… I'd say you better get into the company!"
"Only now thinking about getting in, you're the classic 'won't act until you see the rabbit.' When Xu Mo invested five million, this company was worth nothing; back then thirty percent of its shares probably wasn't even fifty thousand. I have to say, Xu Mo's investment eye is sharp and his guts are big."
"……"
Waking up early, he saw netizens discussing the matter, praising his own investment eye, picking a big steal with little money; Xu Mo felt quite pleased.
Everyone assumed he actually spent five million in cash to buy thirty percent of this game company, which was worthless not long ago.
But no one knew Xu Mo didn't spend a single cent; it was the System's doing!
Picking a big steal with little money? No, no, no—actually I didn't spend a cent, Xu Mo thought happily.
He couldn't help but think to himself: The System is awesome!!!
Looking at it this way, yesterday's System Reward of Digital Currency probably had a purpose, though it's unclear how many times those one hundred thousand Digital Currency units will multiply…
Humming a tune, Xu Mo went out.
He was driving and hadn't left the villa district when a gust of wind blew a Lottery Ticket into the car.
This time Xu Mo hadn't opened the window, so the ticket wasn't blown inside, but it lodged precisely in the car window gap.
Xu Mo rolled down the window, retrieved the ticket, and checked the current draw numbers.
As expected, it was another First Prize.
The First Prize this round paid six million seven hundred thousand.
Only six million? Never mind, even a mosquito's leg is still meat… Xu Mo tucked the ticket away.
Lately his lottery‑picking frequency has been way too high.
Xu Mo doesn't plan to redeem each ticket right away; he intends to save them and cash them in once he has a batch.
After the draw, the redemption period is sixty days; any day within those sixty, you can go to the Prize Redemption Center and claim the prize.
Precisely because of that, Xu Mo doesn't want to run to the Prize Redemption Center ticket by ticket; it's too slow. Saving them is better; he can redeem them all at once later, which is more convenient.
……
When he arrived at the Police Station, Xu Mo noticed his colleagues' looks were a bit off.
Even the usually steady Han Fei gave him a glance tinged with envy.
Needless to say, the officers had seen the trending post and knew Xu Mo spent five million on a huge steal.
The younger officers only showed envy when they looked at Xu Mo.
But the older ones' gazes included not just envy, but a hint of jealousy and regret.
Five million is something a young person can't muster, unless they're a second‑generation rich, but wealthy families wouldn't let their kids suffer as police officers.
So even if they envy Xu Mo, it's only envy, because even if they knew the game company's stock would soar, they lack the capital to invest.
But the older officers at the Police Station do have that capital.
They rode the era of soaring housing prices; several older officers bought homes over a decade ago, and their values have multiplied countless times. If they had Xu Mo's investment eye, they'd have no worries for the rest of their lives.
Gritting their teeth, they could sell a house, borrow from relatives, and scrape together five million.
He originally wanted to mingle as an ordinary person, but now it seems impossible… Xu Mo feels a bit worried.
Who says being rich is always good?
Although he's rich now and will be richer later, wealth also cost him some things!
Like worries…
