Chapter 71 The seventieth stock that I don't understand

Jie Chen knew that there was such a thing as stocks almost a year ago. During that time, I often heard the benefactors who came to the temple talk about it in the Buddhist hall. Later, Brother Jiechou, who worked in a big city, explained to us what stocks are. Occasionally, when I was watching TV and changing channels, I also saw a very formally dressed and serious-looking benefactor talking about stocks, with red, green and green numbers scrolling underneath. Jie Chen was actually very curious, and whenever the benefactors talked about this, they would go over to listen to it with Jie Ao. a little far.

Although I don't understand, I am very happy to know that the donors talked about stocks, because one very depressed donor talked with Master for a long time, but his mood did not change. One time before a meal, I didn’t know how to say stocks, so I stopped being angry and asked, why is it called stock trading instead of steaming stocks? Actually, quitting anger has been thought of this question a long time ago, but I feel embarrassed to ask the donors, I always feel that they might laugh. Quit being proud was scratching his head when I asked him. He said that stock trading is actually just a metaphor. It probably means that you buy a stock for five yuan and then sell it for ten yuan, which makes you an extra five yuan.

When Jie Ao said this, Jie Chen immediately realized that this was the meaning of stock trading.Jiechen did some calculations, and five yuan is not a lot. A steamed bun in the town costs 30 cents, and five yuan can buy sixteen steamed buns and still have a surplus of 20 cents. It can be eaten for several days. Jie Chen told Jie Ao what he thought, and saw that Jie Ao was scratching his head, he said, that was almost what he meant, but the benefactor usually buys stocks worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars, so he will not be forced to Buy sixteen steamed buns. Jie Chen opened his mouth in surprise, and couldn't help but say, that steamed bun can be eaten for several years.

Jie Chen suddenly heard Jie Chen laughing, he said, how could it be possible to eat for several years?Thousands of steamed buns can't fit in the refrigerator, and they will go bad after ten or twenty days. Jie Chen felt that Jie Chen was also very stupid, how could he buy thousands of them at a time?The canteen in the town only makes a hundred or so a day, and they are all sold out. What do the benefactors eat? There are still several questions in Jie Chen's mind, but seeing Jie Ao's constant scratching of his head, he really doesn't have the nerve to ask further, after all, he lacks hair as a barrier, so it's easy to scratch his scalp if he continues like this, as a senior I will be embarrassed too.

A few days later, I saw a benefactor talking about a stock very excitedly. I can’t remember the name of the stock, but I only remember that the benefactor said that this twenty-yuan stock is very valuable for investment. Jie Chen didn't know what investment value was, so he quietly asked Jie Ao, and Jie Ao said that investment value means that if the stock is bought for five yuan, it can rise to ten yuan.Jie Chen nodded secretly, because he understood a little more this time, he couldn't help asking one more question, what is no investment value? How much did it rise to. Jie Chen didn't ask any further because he was confused again.

Immediately after a long period of time, the benefactor who came to the temple didn't know why he didn't talk much about stocks, and Jie Chen also gradually forgot about stocks. Some time ago, while changing the channel, Jie Chen accidentally saw on TV that the well-dressed and serious-looking benefactor was still talking about stocks, but the numbers below were all green.Jie Chen didn't ask Jie Ao this time, because Jie Chen always felt that red was too dazzling and bad for eyesight. The TV station should have changed the color of the numbers displayed long ago. Yesterday, Jie Chen met the benefactor who bought a twenty-dollar stock in the Buddhist hall. After chatting for a while, he inadvertently asked about that stock. The benefactor said, that stock is only three yuan now, so it cannot be bought up.

Jie Chen was confused again, but he felt that he must have said the wrong thing, or why didn't the benefactors who were talking and laughing so much talk so much anymore? Jie An didn't dare to ask further, so he had to leave the question to ask Jie Ao, is the three yuan stock and the twenty yuan stock the same stock? Quit proudly said that it is the same stock. Jie Chen couldn't help but ask, why can I buy it when it costs 20 yuan, but not when it costs 3 yuan? Jieao thought about it for a long time and said, just like when we were picking wild fruits in the mountains, we obviously had a bag full of them, which was enough to eat, but we still wanted to pick more.But if we encounter a snake in the bamboo forest, we will not dare to move forward even though there are no snakes in front of us.

Although quitting anger is still a bit confusing, what I want to quit arrogance probably wants to tell me is that people's desires and fears are the same, and there is no end to them.
