Destined to Be Supreme Wealth

"Is it really okay to waste so much money??"

Even after they had successfully taken their seats.

Qian Shan Xuehui was still worried about Xi Shenlian's extravagant spending.

Although she already knew that Xi Shenlian had inexplicably inherited 650 billion Yen.

Using 500 billion Yen all at once still seemed far too outrageous to her, no matter how she looked at it.

To transport that much cash, they would probably need an entire convoy of armored trucks working all day, right?

Xi Shenlian merely answered indifferently:

"Don't worry. I can't lose money anyway."

"You can't lose money?"

Qian Shan Xuehui asked in confusion:

"You understand business and finance?"

She thought Xi Shenlian intended to run the company seriously and was confident that he absolutely could not lose money.

But Xi Shenlian was too lazy to even care where that company's headquarters was located, so he naturally denied it outright:

"Of course I don't. I don't understand it at all. Not even a little. I've never even looked into it."

Even now, despite openly admitting that he knew nothing about finance, Xi Shenlian's face was still filled with confidence.

This made Qian Shan Xuehui feel that his brain had not healed itself at all, but had instead gone to another extreme:

"Then why are you so confident that you can't lose money?"

Xi Shenlian remained completely unruffled. Spreading his hands, he explained:

"Because of my fate!"

"I was Destined to Be Supreme Wealth. No matter what kind of company it is, it can't lose money."

"Operations? Management?"

"Completely unnecessary."

"Just leave it there and let it grow on its own."

"You can make money just by messing around~"

As mentioned earlier, under the influence of being Destined to Be Supreme Wealth, apart from ordinary money flowing toward Xi Shenlian, all kinds of precious things that money could not buy would also automatically come to him.

A company's operating performance was one of the things covered by ordinary money.

It was one of those seemingly insignificant features in the talent description.

Under the passive influence of being Destined to Be Supreme Wealth, no matter what kind of god-awful company it was, how useless its management was, how inexplicable its business scope was, or how idiotic its products were, everything would automatically change in a direction that allowed Xi Shenlian to make money.

It was like a pig riding a wave.

Whether it wanted to fly or not.

It had to fly!

And keep flying nonstop!

As long as the company belonged to Xi Shenlian, various influences would drive it to make money for him automatically.

Even if it had originally been a company that was garbage beyond all measure, and Xi Shenlian spent every day doing nothing but eating, drinking, womanizing, and gambling, the result would remain unchanged.

The company would still automatically grow into a massive corporation under the push of various influences!

It might even spontaneously court the government and change the law, allowing the company to transcend the law, forcibly ushering society into the age of mega-corporations and turning every citizen—even the entire world—into Xi Shenlian's lackeys!

It could be said that neither the cause nor the process mattered at all.

The outcome had already determined that Xi Shenlian would win.

Did anyone think his invincible path was just a joke?

Difficulties?

There were no difficulties at all.

Take that apartment from before.

Xi Shenlian had only intended to buy the eyesore and tear it down.

He had never intended to make money!

He really had just been wasting money!

Could that make money?

Not a chance!

And yet, even so.

Outer space had still sent him a super-delivery.

A space meteorite that could be sold for tens of quadrillions of Yen by casually tapping it with a calculator.

So, since things were already this mystical.

What did one measly company matter?

It was nothing!

Although Xi Shenlian himself could understand all this.

Outsiders could not make sense of it at all.

Neither Qian Shan Xuehui nor the waiters and chefs nearby understood a word.

Their heads were filled with one question: What the hell was he talking about?

Seeing this.

Xi Shenlian felt that he could offer a simpler explanation.

He took out his phone again, tapped it a few times, and then handed it to Qian Shan Xuehui.

After taking the phone, Qian Shan Xuehui saw that it had opened some strange interface.

It displayed things such as XX Company +7.02% and XX Company -11.05%...

Xi Shenlian explained:

"That is the stock market interface. I've put one billion Yen in there."

"While we're eating, you can use that one billion Yen to buy any stocks you want. If the account shows a loss by the time we've finished eating, you win—even if I only lose one Yen."

"Stock trading?"

Upon hearing that.

Qian Shan Xuehui understood what he meant and said somewhat worriedly:

"I heard that nine out of ten people lose money doing this..."

Xi Shenlian did not refute her. He simply nodded deeply:

"Of course. Most investors are just wandering chives."

"It isn't surprising that they lose money in the stock market until they're crying for their parents."

But immediately after saying that, he noticed that the head chef, who was washing a cleaver in preparation for cutting meat, had silently begun to weep:

"Chef, why are you crying?"

"The stock market has been crashing these past few days. He lost two-thirds of his savings trading stocks yesterday."

"...All right."

Apparently, he had brought up a painful subject.

Qian Shan Xuehui also grew somewhat worried:

"The market is crashing..."

"You really want me to use your money to buy stocks?"

Xi Shenlian's resolve remained firm:

"Buy them. Buy whatever you want."

"Otherwise, you won't believe that I can't lose money."

The chef, still silently shedding tears, could not help giving a disdainful smile.

Hmph...

Ignorant youngsters. A dangerous place like the stock market isn't somewhere you can just walk away from unscathed. Consider this a lesson...

Two minutes later.

After fiddling around and roughly figuring out how to operate the software, Qian Shan Xuehui began buying stocks.

But she did not dare buy much.

She only bought a few tens of thousands of Yen at random.

She also chose a large company she had heard of before.

Three minutes later.

"Wow, it went up! It rose by ten percent."

The chef's expression suddenly changed.

Xi Shenlian casually asked:

"How much did you buy?"

"Fifty thousand Yen!"

Upon hearing that it was only fifty thousand Yen, meaning that even a ten-percent increase would earn just five thousand Yen, the chef's expression immediately returned to normal.

Xi Shenlian also chimed in at the right moment:

"Ehh~"

"That little?"

"You can spend that one billion Yen however you want. Buy it all if you like."

"Your task is to make me lose money!"

"You can't even manage something that simple, can you??"

Xi Shenlian used his taunt skill first.

Skill evaluation in progress...

Evaluation passed!

Qian Shan Xuehui refused to accept this!

"I'll try buying from a few more companies..."

Ten minutes later.

"Why have they all gone up by twenty percent??"

Xi Shenlian ignored her.

He kept his head down and continued eating.

Twenty minutes later.

"Damn it, why is losing money so difficult!!"

Qian Shan Xuehui still refused to accept it.

Xi Shenlian continued eating with his head lowered.

The chef, meanwhile, felt as though his heart were being cut apart.

Nothing was ever more painful than losing money yourself while watching someone else make money right in front of you.
