Chapter 207 Robbery
Chapter 207 Robbery
It rained heavily today and there wasn't much work to do, so Hilly, who lives in Area E, finally had a chance to sit down and rest.
To save money, the boss, Ali, has been reluctant to replace the latest engine room, so he has to manually polish the core of the mecha. This is really not a job for humans.
He has been working in this run-down mecha repair shop for 25 years. Although he seems to have been unemployed, his daily expenses are never enough, and he can't save any money.
Rent, brother's tuition, wife's household expenses, every expense is bothering him.
But tomorrow, he will be free from all this!
Just after Minister Chen's press conference, Taikang Hospital's stock price skyrocketed! It's already skyrocketed in the past few days. No one needs to advertise it; everyone from the wealthy to the common people knows where the next wave of wealth lies.
If you're going to gamble, gamble big!
He sold his aircraft and invested his meager savings and his children's tuition in the stock market. Although he entered the market late, the stock price soared, and soon his assets doubled!
He's cautious and knows when to quit, having already cashed out yesterday. He'll resign tomorrow!
There are too many people like Hilly.
Bakery artisans, street planters, waiters in high-end hotels, lawyers, doctors... people from all walks of life are always keeping an eye on the stock market.
Watching my assets grow bigger and bigger, I feel ecstatic.
The latest news from Star Online today is that the first batch of special medicine has been shipped! It will be used first on seriously ill patients in various medical centers.
As the first transport aircraft took off, Aole Taikang Pharmaceutical soared into the sky!
"Brother Aquan, you see. Investing in Olay will definitely increase its value. You'd be a fool not to invest now."
A Quan, who lives on Capital Star, has been constantly being talked about by his coworker, Zhang Xiao. If you want to buy stocks, you have to enter the market first; if you miss this wave, it will be too late.
But he really has no savings and doesn't have the ability to invest even if he wants to.
"I don't have any money, you know that. Stop talking and get to work."
At the Lingyu bird farm, the final step in extracting adrenaline requires manual, precise application of the drug to the bird, without harming the bird's body and covering the wound.
This kind of work is dirty and tiring, and no one likes to do it, but in order to stay on the capital planet, he does this kind of work three times a day.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to get rich overnight, but he has no capital.
"It's not easy to deal with money. Some small banks now have the latest services that can provide zero-collateral loans. Although the interest rate is a little higher than that of ordinary banks, it is completely affordable!"
Zhang Xiao sneaked over and showed him an official advertisement. The big zero looked so tempting.
"25% interest! Isn't that too high?"
"Brother, you don't understand. Forget Taikang Group's stock price. Even the stock price of the medical equipment factory is rising by 8% every day. How can you afford to pay back this little interest?"
Zhang Xiao showed off his assets again, which stunned A Quan.
"But people like us can only borrow so little without collateral that we can't even afford to buy half a share right now. If you're brave enough to take a risk, look at this!"
This time, Zhang Xiao took out a paper flyer.
"Personal collateral, zero collateral, extremely low-interest loans. Quick and easy, one month. Just get in and get out. Absolutely possible!"
Ah Quan had never seen so much money! If it included his father's medical expenses...
Zhang Xiao saw the hesitation in A Quan's eyes, pulled him to take off his gloves, punched out, and went straight to the bank.
In an instant, the capital planet and the entire galaxy were swept away by the haze, and everyone was filled with happy smiles.
Going to work is no longer just about going to work, but also about showing off today's earnings to each other and sharing potential stocks with each other.
After fighting for half a month, the Ministry of Health can finally take a break.
Minister Chen ordered Capital Star’s most popular internet-famous barbecue for afternoon tea for more than 1600 people in the department.
The whole building was filled with the aroma of meat.
He was drinking tea with the heads of other families in the conference room upstairs.
"Brother Ole, it's your pharmaceutical factory that's fast and got there first. You're the first to profit from this wave."
Chen Jiaji is Chen Junjun's second uncle. He is not very old, but he has obviously looked haggard these days.
He called him "old brother" and congratulated Ole, but his slightly raised chin, deep gaze, and gentle tone did not convey any flattery or ingratiation. He didn't even show much intimacy.
On the other hand, the older Olai didn't react at all. He just casually raised his glass in response. Because he was no longer in charge, his grandson took over the management of the household. He looked no different from Chen Jiaji in appearance.
"Without Patriarch Chen, how could we make any money? Ladies and gentlemen, let's toast to Patriarch Chen together."
Everyone present nodded in agreement.
"Master Chen, when do we sell?"
The Gao family had finally made up for the losses they had incurred. Otherwise, if the prodigal son of the family continued to make trouble, they would have had to sell the planet.
"Don't worry, this is just the first batch of medicine. As long as the medicine is obviously effective and more people enter the market, that will be the good time."
Ole didn't say anything. They were not in a hurry anyway.
Suddenly, Chen Jiaji's secretary knocked on the door urgently and pushed it open without waiting for a reply.
Patriarch Chen's expression turned cold and he put down his teacup.
The secretary leaned over to his ear and said, "Master, something happened!"
Then the Star Brain screen was called up.
Everyone here is smart, so they can immediately look up the hot headlines without being told.
The subtitles scrolled: Taikang Group's first batch of special medicine ships were transported through the asteroid belt and attacked by rebels. One ship was destroyed, and the other three were hijacked!
What! Rebels?! The newly produced medicine is lost!
The minds of the family heads flashed one after another.
Ole's brain immediately flashed. It was his grandson. He immediately turned back to look at Chen Jiaji, paused for a moment, and answered the call.
"Master, there are only three warships coming, and they are very aggressive. Their weapons and equipment are all new and modified! Our escort team couldn't keep up and were all shot down."
"Where are the defenders in Area C? Where is the patrol? Didn't they take action?" Right near the capital planet, at such a close distance, how dare the rebels take action?
It's already known to everyone. Ole asked directly, and everyone in the venue was paying close attention.
"The defenders of the C-area asteroid belt received an alert and only sent out a regular fleet. The rebels didn't force their way in; they looted and fled. A medium-sized fleet, all Cloud Leopard-class, was deployed to meet them after they left the asteroid belt."
"The Clouded Leopard class hasn't been retired yet! Who the hell is talking about the rebels?"
Ole couldn't help but become popular this time!
"Don't let me know which family is looking for death, daring to snatch my wealth here!"
The situation took a turn for the worse, how could Ole swallow this?
He glared at everyone present, sweeping them one by one.
The basic formula of the special-effect drug is shared among several companies, but who can grab the market first depends on the ability of each company.
Of course, it is possible that Ming Qiang was just greedy for the prescription!
In short, the rebels are not strong enough to run rampant in Area C, the territory directly under the Imperial First Army.
I just don't know whose private soldiers are disguising themselves, or whether the First Army's fleet is stealing from the company!
