Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Meng Chuan, who came from a poor family, finally faced the first day of the college entrance examination after more than ten years of hard study.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous.

In the examination room, Meng Chuan's palms were slightly sweaty, and his heart was beating a few beats faster than usual.

However, the moment the Chinese test paper was handed out, Meng Chuan's heart instantly calmed down.

The exam questions were exactly the same as those in my dream.

He, who once scratched his head in his dreams, now seemed to have divine assistance and began to write furiously.

He tackled the basic questions with ease, completing them all in less than half an hour.

He had already prepared his essay with great confidence and profound ideas, and wrote eight hundred words in one go.

In particular, Meng Chuan's calligraphy in the "Slender Gold" style is a pleasure to look at.

This significantly improved the impression score of this full-length essay.

While everyone else was still engrossed in writing, Meng Chuan had already finished the exam.

Head held high, chest out, with a confident smile, I handed in my paper and left the room early.

Aside from not being certain of a perfect score in Chinese, Meng Chuan was absolutely confident of sweeping all opponents in the next two days of exams.

After all, if you know the questions in advance and still can't get full marks, wouldn't you be wasting this golden opportunity to try again?

The stressful college entrance examination has finally come to an end, and Meng Chuan can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

It's worth mentioning that during the college entrance examination period in Mengchuan, news about a mysterious person winning a 2.5 million yuan prize spread like wildfire online.

Everyone was speculating about who this lucky person was.

Meng Chuan, however, paid no attention to this; his gaze had already been fixed on the distant future.

Because, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Iraqi civil war broke out the morning after the college entrance examination.

Meng Chuan must fully capitalize on this wave of crude oil profits.

Therefore, on the afternoon of the day the college entrance examination ended, Meng Chuan called home.

I told my mother, Zhang Mei, that the college entrance exam was over and the class was having a farewell dinner, so I wouldn't be going home today.

In reality, Meng Chuan went to the bank, found President Zhang, and explained his purpose.

Although Zhang Jie was full of doubts, he dared not be negligent in the slightest towards Meng Chuan, this god of wealth.

She quickly vacated her office and even spent the night with Meng Chuan in it.

The bank opened for business promptly at eight o'clock the next morning.

In Zhang Jie's office, Meng Chuan eagerly opened the laptop that Zhang Jie had given him.

Two hundred million yuan lay quietly in the foreign exchange account.

With a leverage ratio of 100, Meng Chuan had 20 billion yuan in available capital.

The current exchange rate between the US dollar and the Chinese yuan is 6.1623.

Without hesitation, Meng Chuan clicked the mouse and converted all the funds into US dollars.

He instantly gained approximately $32.46 billion.

"Brother Meng, how about I arrange a reliable trader for you?"

Zhang Jie, watching from the side, was terrified and couldn't help but speak up to offer advice.

This is a huge transaction worth 20 billion!

From his previous conversations with Meng Chuan, Zhang Jie knew that Meng Chuan had very limited knowledge of futures and stocks.

One wrong move and he could lose everything; he didn't want to fall into the abyss with Meng Chuan.

"No need, I don't trust others."

Meng Chuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile, his eyes conveying a sense of determination and resolve.

Just as Zhang Jie was about to try to persuade him again, there was a knock on the office door.

A staff member pushed open the door and entered, followed by a graceful woman.

"I said, even if the sky falls today, you are not allowed to disturb me!"

Zhang Jie didn't even look up, and shouted sternly.

He was just a bank manager in a small county town, and at that moment he was witnessing an unprecedented transaction worth 20 billion yuan.

At this critical juncture, let alone the sky falling, even if the King of Heaven himself came, I wouldn't want to bother with it.

Not to mention receiving any guests.

"Excuse me, Manager Zhang, it's Miss Liu..."

The staff member was so frightened that his voice trembled, and he hurriedly explained.

But Meng Chuan and the woman both exclaimed in surprise at the same time:

"It's you?"

The person who came was Liu Qian, Meng Chuan's homeroom teacher.

Meng Chuan was surprised, never expecting to meet her here.

Liu Qian was even more shocked, as she knew Meng Chuan's impoverished family background.

How could a country boy be qualified to appear in the bank manager's office?

This is simply beyond imagination.

"Oh! It's Miss Liu! I'm sorry."

Zhang Jie looked up and saw Liu Qian, and his attitude changed instantly.

Liu Qian is one of his few major clients.

He had repeatedly instructed his staff that whenever Ms. Liu came, there was no need to announce her arrival; she could be brought directly to see him regardless of the occasion.

That's why the staff brought Liu Qian over.

Zhang Jie then looked at Meng Chuan with a suspicious expression:

"Brother Meng, Miss Liu, do you know each other?"

"She's my homeroom teacher, Director Zhang. I haven't even started yet! Why don't you go ahead and get busy?"

Meng Chuan explained with a smile.

Zhang Jie suddenly realized.

"How will you be here?"

Liu Qian finally recovered from her shock and stared at Meng Chuan, asking him a question.

Yesterday, the college entrance examination had just ended, and she wanted to ask Meng Chuan about his exam results.

However, because Meng Chuan didn't have a cell phone, Liu Qian thought that Meng Chuan had already returned to his rural hometown.

Unexpectedly, we met in the bank president's office early this morning.

"I have some business to discuss with President Zhang."

Meng Chuan quickly replied.

Liu Qian frowned, her doubts growing stronger.

What kind of business dealings could a poor student possibly have with a bank manager?

"Miss Liu, since you know each other, please don't stand on ceremony. Come, sit down and let's talk."

Zhang Jie, being a shrewd person, quickly invited Liu Qian to sit down and instructed the staff to prepare tea.

"Miss Liu, may I ask what brings you here today?"

Zhang Jie got straight to the point: although Liu Qian was a major client, Meng Chuan was clearly a more influential figure.

Moreover, they were conducting a critical business that was "of life and death" at stake.

Zhang Jie just wanted to get Liu Qian to leave as soon as possible.

"Oh, I see! What about what I told you a few days ago, have you made any progress?"

Liu Qian didn't care about Meng Chuan and looked anxious as she got down to business.

“Ms. Liu, Bitcoin is an illegal financial activity in our country. I can only help you find some willing buyers to conduct the transaction privately. But none of the wealthy people in the county are interested.”

Zhang Jie said with a wry smile.

It turns out that Liu Qian had a batch of Bitcoins in her possession.

in the country, Bitcoin is not officially recognized.

No financial institution dared to provide guarantees or trading platforms, so transactions could only be conducted privately.

Private transactions are extremely risky.

Due to the lack of legal oversight, there are numerous hidden dangers such as fraud and fake transactions.

Who would dare to venture into this place if they didn't know the inside story?

If something goes wrong, not only will there be no lawsuit, but both parties will also bear criminal responsibility.

“My Bitcoin is stored on a USB drive, and the account and keys are all on it. It’s not an online virtual wallet, so this method of transaction is the safest. I’m in a hurry to sell it, so I’d appreciate any help from Director Zhang.”

Liu Qian said anxiously.

“It’s not that I don’t want to help! You know that in February this year, there was a hacker attack on MT Company, which resulted in the loss of 850,000 Bitcoins and led to its bankruptcy. This caused the price of Bitcoin to drop by 58% instantly.”

Zhang Jie smiled wryly:

"This incident severely damaged investor confidence in the cryptocurrency market. Now, many people are terrified of Bitcoin!"

Rich people aren't fools.

In this context, even though Zhang Jie was the bank manager, there was really no way he could help Liu Qian.

Meng Chuan understood the gist of the matter and couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Liu, how many Bitcoins do you have? As far as I know, Bitcoin is poised for a significant price surge, so why are you in such a hurry to sell?"
