Chapter 3 3. Billionaire
Du Chuan traveled from 2024 to 1974. Before he had time to get familiar with the situation, he was directly assigned to go to the countryside to become an educated youth.
When I fully understood the situation, corrected my mentality, and prepared to live a good life in this era, I found that I was carrying a system, and it was a Shenhao system.
One million a month, you can spend it on whatever you want, no matter how you spend it.
When he heard the news, Du Chuan's whole mentality collapsed!
One million per month, let alone now, even fifty years from now, is not a small sum.
But... this was 1974. The country implemented a planned economy, and everything was distributed according to need.
Everything you buy requires tickets. It’s useless to have money. What’s more important is tickets, food stamps, coal stamps, meat stamps, cloth stamps, fish stamps, oil stamps, tofu stamps, non-staple food stamps...< br>
He couldn't spend this one million, let alone an educated youth. Where did he get one million?
And there are so many of them every month. There is no need to check them. If they find out, they will be pulled out and shot. There is absolutely no problem.
The system seemed to be stuck at that time. Faced with Du Chuan's ferocious roar, the system simply refused to respond.
Finally, when Du Chuan stabilized his emotions again and accepted the reality, he directly said that the money would be entrusted to the system first, which actually meant that the system would save the money first.
Now he can only wait for the reform and opening up, then go to Pengcheng and stay there for a while, and then he can enjoy life openly.
Then through my own foresight and a little investment in things, I will definitely not be short of money to spend in the future. Just thinking about it makes me so beautiful.
At that time, Du Chuan seemed to have heard that the system was restarted and the funds were in custody, and he stopped caring about the system. Anyway, it was annoying to read too much now, so it was better not to watch.
It is now 1979. He arrived in May 1974, and now it is May 1979. Five years have passed. In his heart, he now has a net worth of 60 million, which is perfect. A real rich man!
And with the reform and opening up coming soon, his good days are also coming soon, which makes Du Chuan feel even better.
It’s just that something happened today, not about Jiao Lanhua, but the reason why he was in a trance all the way home.
In fact, the agricultural machinery factory where he is now purchased the technology of an American agricultural machinery company. This agricultural machinery company sent people to connect with them in the past two days, and Du Chuan was responsible for receiving and taking care of these foreign friends.
The reception desk where Du Chuan was located was specially set up for this purpose, and for some reasons, he returned to the city early, and his English was good, so he happened to enter this department.
After the reform and opening up, the country implemented a market-for-technology policy. Before that, it used capital for technology, that is, purchasing external technology.
These purchased technologies also require specialized teaching by some foreign experts. Now these foreign experts are difficult to serve one by one, but in order to learn advanced technologies, they can only endure it no matter what.
To put it bluntly, Du Chuan specializes in serving these foreign experts. Of course, to put it nicely, it is reception.
These are all small things. Du Chuan has received experts twice in the past year since he took office, and he was basically able to complete the tasks well.
Just when Du Chuan thought that this time was the same as before, a prompt suddenly appeared in the system that had rarely seen any movement in five years. The prompt was very simple, but it stunned Du Chuan.
The system prompts that the American company called Delico that came this time is an agricultural machinery company 100% controlled by him.
When Du Chuan heard this reminder, he was stunned. When did he have a company? And it’s an American company?
Didn’t I stay in China for the past five years? Not to mention going abroad, he rarely even went out to the commune brigade in the past few years.
Faced with Du Chuan's inquiry, the system gave an answer. The reason was simple: Du Chuan casually handed over his funds to the system for custody at that time. Then the system went down, perhaps because of the initial funding source problem. After restarting, for some reason, the original one million RMB per month was converted into one million US dollars.
Then he started to trust Du Chuan's funds. After five years, he has made good gains.
When Du Chuan learned the cause and effect, he couldn't help but fell silent again.
But this silence is to praise the system for its good work!
Who doesn’t want to have more assets?
But when Du Chuan asked him how many assets he had, the system directly wanted to sell off all the assets, otherwise it would not be able to liquidate them specifically.
This scared Du Chuan and quickly made him stop. Sometimes, assets are more useful than pure funds.
Then Du Chuan asked how much assets he had now, and whether he could mobilize all the funds at any time.
The answer I got was that Du Chuan's assets are now about two billion US dollars, and the specific amount cannot be liquidated for the time being.
He can call on all the assets in Du Chuan's name at any time.
So when the system asked whether to end the fund custody, Du Chuan directly refused.
Just kidding, this is equivalent to hiring a super awesome professional manager, and it’s free.
After five years, he managed to manage Du Chuan's tens of millions of assets to two billion US dollars. He knew how much he had, and he was just an ordinary social animal before he traveled through time.
Without a system, even if he was given such a huge asset, he would not be able to manage it, so he would only 'fire' such a 'professional manager' unless he was stupid.
If Du Chuan remembers correctly, in the first edition of the American Rich List released by Forbes in 1982, the number one person at the top was only US$2 billion?
Are you now the richest man in America?
Although this is only on the surface, it is still quite impressive. Of course, no one except Du Chuan himself knows that these assets are agented through the system.
But this also means that he is not only a billionaire now, but also a super rich man!
If he went to the United States now, he would be able to enjoy life and wealth in corrupt capitalism.
Of course, it may be ruthlessly harvested in a few decades.
But Du Chuan had no idea of running out. First of all, he was an angry youth himself and had never thought of running out.
Secondly, he prefers the domestic living environment, likes to speak Chinese, likes the domestic sophistication, and likes...
Secondly, his family is also an existence that he cannot let go of. Before time travel, his parents were very young Even though they were divorced and both had new families, he rarely experienced the warmth of family.
But now he has experienced that although there are many trivial matters in the family, the warmth of the family is also reflected in every aspect.
Just like today's situation, the arrival of Jiao Lanhua, the sister-in-law, undoubtedly added a huge burden to the family, but neither Father Du nor Mu Mu, nor himself, thought of driving them away. Get out, but stay and get through it together.
Finally, there is no need to worry about enjoying life, because the reform and opening up will happen soon. It will only happen a few years earlier. I have persisted in living in the countryside for five years, and I still need this little time. ?
So, although Du Chuan looks poor now, in fact he is really a billionaire, and a super rich man!
