Chapter 006: Deeply Disturbing Thoughts

Hu Yatong, realizing her mistake in the midst of her busyness, felt embarrassed and her face turned red. She insisted on forcing Fu Zhengyi to apologize through kicking and hitting, and only then did she obediently sit down to listen to Fu Zhengyi speak

The second point is to have her wait for a call at home. Fu Zhengyi believes that his cousin Fu Zhengming must have a way to find Hu Yatong's home phone number. Fu Zhengyi asks Hu Yatong to simply say that they have not met in the past few days.

It is unfortunate; my cousin must have fallen victim to a scam. If the substantial sum of 150,000 yuan is not recovered by next Monday, the chances of retrieving it will be virtually nonexistent

Moreover, what delighted him the most was that upon entering the room, he saw a telephone on the table. When he inquired, it turned out that Hu Yatong had indeed activated it. Further questioning revealed that due to the incomplete procurement of renovation materials for her home, not only would the renovation workers not be coming over these days, but even the delivery of renovation materials was quite sparse. At the very least, there would be no one coming here next week

Among the four siblings of the Fu family, only the eldest, Fu Zhengming, is someone who can make decisions

On this night, it is destined that many people will be unable to sleep

Fu Mingting, who works at the Hehua Pond branch of Hanzhou Commercial Bank, has cried so much that her eyes are swollen like walnuts. The savings card belonging to Fu Zhengyi, which she placed on the table, has been checked countless times, and it only contains the ten yuan that was deposited when the account was opened. The substantial sum of one hundred fifty thousand yuan has vanished without a trace

Justice seems to have evaporated from the world, as if it never existed. In all the places that Fu Zhengming knew his cousin might have gone, there was no sign of him. Even Hu Yatong, who had played with him since childhood, said that she hadn't seen him since he went swimming on the 27th.

However, constrained by the trading volume at that time, the initial capital calculated by Fu Zhengyi could not exceed 500,000; otherwise, it would affect the price movements of those stocks that experienced significant increases, ultimately leading to severe deviations and changes in their price fluctuations.

Fu Zhengyi, from my uncle's family, grew up under his watch. He has always been timid and cowardly since childhood. Although he learned to smoke in high school and enjoys playing games and watching videos with others, he rarely goes to the bank, let alone be aware of the internal loopholes of the bank. How could he possibly think of such a clever way to transfer the 150,000 yuan from my uncle's savings book?

Although this place still belongs to the old town with its old houses, Fu Zhengyi remembers that her brother seemed to have gotten married at the end of the year. It appears that if renovations have not yet begun here, then clearly no one will be coming for a short period of time. Hiding here should be considered relatively safe

After the possibility of family property loss has been eliminated, if the market rescue regulations are promulgated as scheduled tomorrow, in the view of Zhengyi, it signifies that the future of the financial market will operate according to its original historical trajectory. The one hundred fifty thousand shares purchased today will enable him to begin accumulating immense wealth, fundamentally transforming his previously desolate and helpless life.

Behind Fu Zhengyi, there must be someone with a profound understanding of banking who is instigating him; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to transfer the substantial funds from his savings account yesterday morning after it was confiscated, all without having the savings card in hand

After he went to Fu Zhengyi's house with his father Fu Taidao and found no one there, he decisively called the police and, through a friend in the public security system, sent out a photo of Fu Zhengyi, blocking any possibility of his leaving Hanzhou City

Under pressure from questioning, Fu Zhengyi felt quite troubled. However, seeing that it was already past nine in the evening, he brushed off the issue regarding the injury and urged Hu Yatong to hurry home, telling her that only after she had settled things with her father would he reveal the true reason to her

In the small courtyard, there is running water, cooking facilities, and gas that can be used for cooking right away. With his mind completely at ease, Fu Zhengyi hurriedly conveyed the matters he had just thought of.

Hua Yatong, carrying a pile of items, made Fu Zhengyi laugh. He grabbed the gauze and bandages and asked, "Are you planning to seal your own mouth with these?"

From this moment on, the entire Fu family was completely thrown into chaos

Moreover, since my cousin Zhang Zhengyi has someone instigating him from behind, his safety is also a concern now

However, right after that, Fu Zhengming reconsidered and felt that something was amiss with the situation

Fu Zhengyi, who previously worked as an order clerk at a securities company in a past life, noted that due to the short working hours and the lack of mental strain, he once conducted calculations with colleagues during his leisure time. He remarked that if anyone had been able to foresee the market trend in 1994, they could have easily earned a profit of twelve times within the first week!

In the room, only the sound of Fu Zhengming's footsteps echoed, and the heavy atmosphere made Fu Mingting, who was both tired and frightened, choke up once again as she spoke. "Brother, I really didn't expect that justice could transfer money without a card. When I transferred Uncle San's money into his account, I thought I couldn't let him touch this sum, which is why I took the card away from him. Who would have thought he still had a way to transfer the money inside? I, I, I truly didn't know..."

His mother, Zheng Yufen, experienced a worsening of her condition after 1994. If it had not been for the support provided in secret by his cousin Fu Zhengming from his uncle's family, it is likely that she would not have been able to witness the birth and growth of her granddaughter

The couple, Fu Jialao San, has been detained in Banna City, Yun Province, for fraud. Since the case involves an amount of over one hundred thousand, it is classified as a major and serious case. Therefore, Fu Zhengming, who works in the Credit Department of Hanzhou Commercial Bank, although he managed to contact his classmates in Yun Province to inquire about the situation, the feedback he received was quite unfavorable.

Drowsiness gradually overtook him as he fell asleep, reminiscing about the sacrifices of his loved ones in his past life. However, he slept restlessly, his pillow dampened by tears.

You are a pig! What you usually eat is pig feed! You have been in the bank for three years! You have already seen the internal notes in Uncle San's account, how dare you transfer money to him privately? Do you think that as his brother, I am planning to deceive and harm him, while only you are the good sister who cares for and loves him?

In the pitch darkness outside, Hu Yatong did not notice anything amiss. When she finally entered the room, she discovered that Fu Zhengyi's mouth was bleeding. With a gasp, Hu Yatong did not wait for Fu Zhengyi to speak and hurriedly searched for antiseptic, iodine, adhesive bandages, gauze, and bandages.

Lying on the bed, Fu Zhengyi gazed at the bright moon outside the window, thinking that everything would be revealed tomorrow. The only concern he had at the moment was for his parents, who were far away in Yun Province. At that time, there was only a small amount of change left in their bank account, and he wondered if they were still anxious and worried in the unfamiliar Yun Province.

Just now, as I rode my bike into the courtyard, I saw a pile of yellow sand and quite a bit of lumber in the corner of the yard. Fu Zhengyi guessed that this should be the wedding house of Hu Yatong's brother

As he pondered, the images of his parents eighteen years later involuntarily surfaced before him

The father, who already had a bad temper, became increasingly irritable due to the guilt from the incident in 1994. Even after he later repaid all his debts, the father stubbornly refused to move into his house, always claiming that he had caused him harm and that it would have been better if he had died back then

In the end, it is necessary to ask Hu Yatong to help inquire about what has happened at his home, preferably to gain an understanding of the situation of his parents who are far away in Yun Province

Fu Zhengming was filled with both anger and frustration at the thought of this, feeling a wave of darkness wash over him. A sum of 150,000 had been swindled, and not only could the accusations against his uncle and aunt not be cleared, but even the safety of his cousin Fu Zhengyi was now in jeopardy. Even if he remained unharmed, the fact that he had already turned eighteen meant that he could potentially bear criminal responsibility afterwards

Moreover, the demands for her father to adhere strictly to the rules and not to provide any special favors were even more far-fetched.

In the game rooms and all-night video halls of Hanzhou City, the owners have photos of Fu Zhengyi by no later than 9 PM. As soon as he appears, he will be immediately taken to the nearby police station.

Following Fu Zhengming, he also mobilized his friends and classmates to start searching for people in Hanzhou City, aiming to locate Fu Zhengyi, who had transferred away a large sum of 150,000 yuan, so that this money could be remitted to the company in Xishuangbanna, thereby allowing the company to report the case to the public security bureau and lift the detention of the Fu Taiwen couple

For Zhengyi, it was precisely his experience in the financial industry that endowed him with an extraordinary memory for the trends of financial instruments that had previously emerged. Even as he approached the age of forty, he could still rely on his memory to accurately reproduce the trends of various trading products in both domestic and international financial markets over the eighteen years following 1994, using candlestick charts.

Filled with suspicion, Hu Yatong, in a state of confusion, still agreed and was sent to the main road by Fu Zhengyi. It was only then that she realized it was already late, and she hurriedly rode her bike home.

In the subsequent five weeks, if one can similarly capture the main upward trends of the majority of stocks, then within a brief period of just one and a half months, it is entirely possible to effortlessly achieve nearly eighty times the profit

Before coming, Hu Yatong was asked to bring some money, and he found the demands of Fu Zhengyi very perplexing. Once he calmed down, he felt that something was very wrong, and the injury at the corner of his mouth was clearly caused by a recent fight.

Fu Zhengming, who had been pacing back and forth in the room waiting for a phone call, had already lost his temper countless times. With a dark expression, even his father did not dare to disturb him, and could only let him wait by the phone for news to arrive

Not good

Like a volcanic eruption, Fu Zhengming rushed in front of Fu Mingting, unleashing a torrent of curses. Fu Mingting, unable to lift her head, was in tears, repeatedly apologizing, but this only fueled Fu Zhengming's anger further

Tomorrow will be July 30, as the three major market rescue regulations issued by the relevant authorities have led to a stock market explosion in 1994, with the Shanghai and Shenzhen markets rising nearly threefold in less than 30 trading days

All the regulations in the bank are designed to ensure the safety of depositors' funds. He has already left a message in the remarks of his third uncle's account. In the entire city of Hanzhou, apart from this cousin from his second uncle's family who can help that young man transfer the money, Fu Zhengming really cannot think of any teller at the counter who would transfer the substantial sum of 150,000 after seeing that remark

As Hu Yatong stepped onto the main road, under the illumination of the streetlights, the safety of a girl in Hanzhou City at this time was still not a concern. Returning along the same path, Fu Zhengyi bought a considerable amount of food at the small shop at the alley entrance before entering the courtyard and locking the gate behind him

The lights are still on in the home of the head of the Fu family

Hu Yatong always felt that Fu Zhengyi in front of her was somewhat off, especially after he had been submerged in water; she sensed that there seemed to be some changes in his eyes. Therefore, she insisted that Fu Zhengyi provide a clear explanation before she would consider whether to offer him assistance

The joint defense team of Hanzhou was also sent a photo of Fu Zhengyi. As long as someone can find Fu Zhengyi, Fu Zhengming promised to award a bonus of one thousand yuan. The excited members of the joint defense team were all acting as if they had taken stimulants, pounding their chests and promising to locate the person.

The most critical point is that Hu Yatong needs her father to lend a hand. Fu Zhengyi is certain that by next Monday at the latest, his cousin Fu Zhengming will definitely go to the securities company. Moreover, given Fu Zhengming's temperament, he will also demand an immediate freeze on his securities account. Therefore, as long as Hu Yatong's father acts according to the regulations and does not allow outsiders to inquire about his account, it will be considered a success.

Thinking of the accusations and criminal responsibilities that his uncle and aunt, as well as his cousin Fu Zhengyi, might face, Fu Zhengming's body swayed and he collapsed onto the sofa, the exclamations around him gradually fading into a blur.

Four thirty in the morning
