752 Deep in mud

Gu Jia has been a little worried recently, and it's not because of her son Xu Ziyan.

Since meeting Mrs. Wang on the top floor of Junyue Mansion, Gu Jia has enrolled her son in an international kindergarten.

After the son's matter was resolved, my husband had another problem.

Ever since Xu Huanshan repaid Wang Gang's money, he has been acting strangely all day long.

The company's financial situation was so tight that he didn't worry about it. Instead, he held his computer and studied the stock market all day long.

Gu Jia has known Xu Huanshan for almost ten years and has never seen him play stocks.

In the past, Xu Huanshan was very against stock trading, thinking that it was gambling.

But lately, Xu Huanshan has been acting like a madman, studying the stock market day and night, and even bought a lot of books on stock trading to read.

Gu Jia originally thought her husband was depressed and looking for something to kill time.

But later, the company's accountant secretly contacted Gu Jia and told her that Xu Huanshan had transferred all the money in the company's account not long ago. Seeing that the salary payment day was coming this month, there was not a penny in the company's account.

Gu Jia suspected that Xu Huanshan had used the money to speculate in stocks, so she found an opportunity to ask him.

"Huan Shan, why have you been researching stocks recently, and I haven't seen you caring about the company?" Gu Jia poured her husband a cup of ginseng tea and took the opportunity to ask.

Xu Huanshan did not hide anything and said directly: "I bought a stock."

"Are you really speculating in stocks?" Gu Jia asked in surprise: "Have you used all the money in the company's account to speculate in stocks?"

"Yes." Xu Huanshan said slightly excitedly: "Do you know how much money I have made these days?"

Gu Jia frowned slightly, feeling quite unhappy!

The company is barely able to pay out the salary this month. Do you still have the heart to speculate in the stock market?

"Gu Jia, look at this stock." Xu Huanshan pushed the laptop in front of Gu Jia like a treasure.

"I bought this stock for RMB 3.00, and in just ten days it rose to RMB 2.40, almost doubling the price!"

Gu Jia frowned and said, "How much did you invest?"

"I invested all the liquidity in the company's account." Xu Huanshan said happily: "I made half a million yuan."

Gu Jia worriedly said: "Now that you have made money, throw it away as soon as possible! Five hundred thousand is enough."

Xu Huanshan said dissatisfied: "I think this stock can still rise. It will be no problem if it reaches three yuan."

Gu Jia advised: "Huan Shan, you don't know much about stocks, just make some money, don't get too involved!"

"What do you know?" Xu Huanshan said proudly: "I have thoroughly researched this stock in the past few days, and many stock commentators are also optimistic about it. I am confident that three yuan will not be his end."

Gu Jia found that Xu Huanshan had a gambler's mentality now, and worriedly said: "Huanshan, are there a lot of things in the company waiting for you to deal with?"

Xu Huanshan said nonchalantly: "The company only makes a few dollars a year."

Gu Jia frowned and said, "You have never touched stocks before, so why do you want to trade in stocks on a whim?"

Xu Huanshan did not hide anything and said: "This stock was recommended by Chen Yu, and he bought it for 10 million!"

Gu Jia took a breath and asked in confusion: "Chen Yu is so big in stock trading, does Zhong Xiaoqin know?"

Xu Huanshan sneered and said: "People call me silently making a fortune. I have made millions in net income in just these few days. This money comes faster than printing money."

Gu Jia couldn't sit still anymore, so she took out her mobile phone and called Zhong Xiaoqin.

"Xiaoqin, Chen Yu took 10 million to trade stocks, did you know?"

"I know! Didn't I tell you about Chen Yu's stock trading before?" Zhong Xiaoqin was quite surprised when she received the call, why did Gu Jia mention the stock trading.

"I didn't expect him to play so big." Gu Jia said worriedly.

"It's okay. Chen Yu stocks stocks and stops every time he makes a little profit, so he has never lost money." Zhong Xiaoqin explained.

"Did he sell the stock?" Gu Jia asked about the stock Xu Huanshan bought.

"You should have sold it two days ago! Chen Yu said that the stock's rise was a bit strange, and he suspected that someone was behind it, so he sold it all one after another."

Gu Jia's head was spinning a little when he heard this.

"Did you know that Chen Yu recommended Xu Huanshan to buy that stock?" Gu Jia said angrily.

"Chen Yu mentioned to me once that he called Xu Huanshan to tell him before selling stocks! I thought you knew." Zhong Xiaoqin said strangely.

Gu Jia couldn't listen anymore, hung up the phone and asked Xu Huanshan.

"Chen Yu reminded you that there is a problem with this stock, why didn't you listen?" Gu Jia asked her husband.

Xu Huanshan said indifferently: "Chen Yu said that this stock would plummet, but what happened? It hasn't risen in the past two days!"

"I don't care, sell the stocks immediately!" Gu Jia shouted.

"You are crazy. If you sell it now, do you know how much less money I will make?" Xu Huanshan quit. He was counting on this stock to turn around and solve all the company's problems.

"You have already made half a million, isn't that enough?" Gu Jia asked, "Do you really want to lose everything before you give up?"

The couple started quarreling again about stocks.

They had an argument not long ago about borrowing money.

Xu Ziyan, who was sleeping in the room, vaguely heard the quarrel, got up and walked out of the room, and then saw his father and mother quarreling with red faces.

"Mom, did you quarrel with dad again?" Xu Ziyan said timidly.

When Gu Jia heard this, he immediately stopped arguing and came over to comfort his son. Xu Huanshan also realized that his son was frightened, so he came over and said pleasantly:

"Ziyan, mom and dad weren't quarreling. We were just discussing issues. The sound was a bit loud and I woke you up. I'm sorry."

"Really?" Xu Ziyan was young after all and could not understand the worries of adults.

Gu Jia quickly put her son to sleep and found her husband again. This time she was calmer.

"Huan Shan, can you please, for the sake of your son, stop touching stocks? I really don't want to live a life of fear."

Xu Huanshan is a man who likes soft things but not hard words. Seeing his wife's appearance, he softened his heart.

"Is this good? I will withdraw my principal of 700,000 yuan. The money I have made in the past few days will not be kept for the time being. I believe this stock will rise again!"

Seeing that her husband was still stubborn, Gu Jia couldn't help but sigh: "Why can't you be like Chen Yu and just give up when you're good?"

This sentence deeply hurt Xu Huanshan's self-esteem.

"If you think Chen Yu is good, why don't you marry him?" Xu Huanshan said angrily.

Gu Jia looked at Xu Huanshan strangely, she didn't mean what she just said at all!

"Huan Shan, it's not that I think Chen Yu is good, but I'm afraid that one day you will get into deep trouble and lose our whole family.

Look at how many people there are in Shanghai, who have gone bankrupt by speculating in the stock market!"

Xu Huanshan also regretted saying those words and hesitated: "Okay, why don't I sell all the stocks tomorrow!"

Gu Jia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You will sell as soon as the market opens tomorrow."

Xu Huanshan felt that Gu Jia was too strong and felt a little uncomfortable, but for the sake of this family, he still agreed to his wife.

That night, the couple lay on the same bed, and rarely did anyone fall asleep.

The next day, Gu Jia asked his father to send his son to school, while he watched Xu Huanshan sell the stocks in person.

Xu Huanshan had no choice but to sell stocks and cash out RMB 1.3 million, temporarily alleviating the company's financial constraints.

But every time Xu Huanshan saw that the stock was still rising, his heart felt like it was bleeding!

Half a month later, the stock rose to 3 yuan and 10 cents, then suddenly fell off a cliff, and Xu Huanshan was shocked.

Gu Jia was actually paying attention to the stock market and found out that it had fallen as expected by Wang Gang, so she immediately found Xu Huanshan.

"Huan Shan, look, Chen Yu's prediction was good. There's something really wrong with that stock."

Xu Huanshan said firmly: "I originally planned to sell it when the price rose to three yuan. If you hadn't forced me to sell it, we would have made more than double the profit."

Gu Jia knew that Xu Huanshan had a tough talk, but she did not refute him. She just said: "The water in the stock market is too deep. It is better for us to touch less in the future and focus on developing the company. We will not make less than Chen Yu and others in the future."

Xu Huanshan said sourly: "Chen Yu has made millions this time. I have worked hard in the company for a year, and no one can sit at home and move their fingers. I make more in a month!"

"Let's not envy others." Gu Jia sat next to her husband and said, "When we make the company bigger and stronger, we will definitely earn more than them.

I thought, if it doesn’t work out, let’s mortgage the house in Junyue Mansion, borrow some money, and try our best to win Mr. Ma’s business.”

Xu Huanshan frowned and said: "The house in Junyue Mansion itself has a loan, so the mortgage can't be much money."

Gu Jia sighed and said, "If it doesn't work out, I'll go home and discuss it with my dad. If we use his apartment as a mortgage, we should be able to get four to five million."

Xu Huanshan said worriedly: "Can your father agree? Hasn't he always been reluctant to part with that house? He said your mother lived in it!"

"My mother has been gone for so many years." Gu Jia's face darkened and she said, "Besides, we are not selling the house, we are just mortgaging it. We will redeem it after we get Mr. Ma's business."

Xu Huanshan thought for a moment and found that there was no other way now. Instead of borrowing money from friends, he might as well mortgage Gu Jia's father's house.
