Cao Shuxu said: "To put it simply, this thing is a decentralized virtual currency."
A few people don't understand even more, and the more they listen, the more confused they become.
Cao Shujie himself is not professional in this area, but he has faith, a faith that can fly into the sky.
"Let me tell you this, this thing peaked at 13 US dollars a piece last year, but in less than two months it dropped to less than 2 US dollars a piece. You can tell how deceptive it is," Cao Shuxu said.
But it wasn't over yet. Looking at Cao Shulun and Cao Shuyang, they all had their mouths wide open, looking particularly surprised.
Cao Shuxu continued: "You must have never imagined that it has tripled from the lowest price last year to now, and it is still rising."
"Brothers, would it be outrageous to talk about how it falls and rises?"
The scene became quiet for a while.
Only the cute "click-click-click" sound of eating is left.
She was indifferent to these things and was immersed in her own world.
Cao Fei was interested in stocks, so he couldn't help but ask: "Is it so awesome? It's even better than the stock price."
"Yes, it has gone up and down, it has gone up and down, but I still dare not buy it. This thing is illegal. It might disappear sometime, and you will lose all your money by then." Cao Shuxu said this.
.
The more he knows, the more worries he has.
Cao Shujie really didn't expect to hear information related to Bitcoin from Cao Shuxu today.
And it’s actually increased in price!
It was more than three times higher than last year's lowest price. Cao Shujie had a thought in his mind: "So I'm starting to make a profit?"
Cao Shujie bought Bitcoin in the second round of RMB 100,000 in November last year. After that, he never looked at it or paid attention to it.
He planned to keep it for two years, and then he would fulfill the agreement with his wife and sell the 7,514 coins that came in in the second round.
"Brother Xu, are you saying this thing is illegal?" Cao Zhen asked.
Cao Shuxu nodded: "At least it's not legal so far."
"Forget it, it's not easy to make some money. If it's all swallowed up, how can I live?" Cao Zhen completely eliminated the idea of Bitcoin in his heart.
Mengmeng didn't know when she finished what she was holding. She grabbed Cao Shujie's clothes and walked out shouting: "Dad, let's go, I want to take a nap."
"I'm sleepy. Dad, say a few words to your uncle, and we'll leave in a moment." Cao Shujie coaxed her.
Seeing that it was almost eight o'clock, Cao Zhenghe had already turned the TV to CCTV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Cao Shujie said to him: "Grandpa, Mengmeng wants to sleep, we have to go back and see you another day."
Cao Shuxu wanted to keep them again, but Mengmeng climbed into Cao Shujie's arms, her legs were hanging on his lap, her little head was lying in his arms, and she closed her eyes as if she was about to sleep.
When Cao Shuxu saw this scene, he no longer stopped them: "Okay, you go back first, and we can talk another day."
"Brother Xu, if you're not busy, just say something and let's have a drink together!" Cao Shujie said.
Cao Zhen and others all expressed the same meaning.
Being able to sit down and have a drink with a well-informed and well-paid person, even if they listen to the other person's bragging, can increase their own knowledge, which is beneficial to them, so why not do it!
Before leaving, Cao Shuxu came out to see them off. Seeing that the street lights outside were still on, Cao Shuxu teased Cao Shujie: "Shujie, I heard that these lights can stay on all the time, thanks to your efforts!"
"Brother Xu, that's all." Cao Shujie didn't take the job, he said, "Uncle Hua also contributed."
"Dad, let's go, I want to take a nap." Mengmeng was held upright by Cao Shujie, her little head was lying on Cao Shujie's shoulder, she was humming, and she was about to fall asleep.
Cao Shujie didn't waste much time. They said goodbye to Cao Shuxu and headed north.
While walking, Cao Shujie talked to his daughter, trying not to let her sleep on the road to avoid catching another cold.
Cao Zhen, Cao Fei and the others were still thinking of inviting a few people to sit at home, but Cao Shujie patted his daughter and said, "It's not that I won't go. Mengmeng is so sleepy. I have to send her home to sleep first. Let's go tomorrow."
When the Shulun family gathers, I will bring wine."
"You bring Daomao, I'll bring wine, and I still have half a bottle of Maotai." Cao Zhen said this, amusing several people with one sentence.
Cao Shujie was not polite to him, and said to him: "Don't just bring the half bottle of Maotai, but bring something else."
Among the few people, Cao Shujie's family was the farthest one. He walked home quickly with his daughter in his arms, and on the way he met a few folks who were still paying New Year's greetings.
At this time, Cao Shujie would stop and say a few words to them, and then continue to rush home on the grounds that Mengmeng wanted to sleep.
When he returned home, he happened to see his wife Cheng Xiaolin looking at the door. After seeing them, Cheng Xiaolin still nagged him: "Shujie, why did you go so long? Are you Mengmeng sleepy?"
"Almost asleep." Cao Shujie patted his daughter who was still lying on his shoulder: "Mengmeng, we are home, come down quickly."
But without waking her up, Cao Shujie whispered: "I was talking to her just now, and she fell asleep so soon?"
Cheng Xiaolin rolled her eyes at her husband and reached out to take Mengmeng away from her husband. Seeing that Mengmeng had closed her eyes and snored slightly, she said, "It's cold outside, let's go inside first."
As she spoke, she held Mengmeng in her arms and walked quickly. Cao Shujie followed behind and entered the house.
As soon as he entered the main room, he saw his grandfather sitting on the official hat chair directly opposite the door of the living room. There was also an old man with white hair sitting on the official hat chair next to him, who was Cao Zhengyin, the accountant of their village.
As soon as Cao Shujie entered, he shouted to Cao Zhengyin: "Grandpa."
"Shujie is back. Is Mengmeng asleep?" he asked.
Cao Shujie nodded: "She had to follow me out tonight. She ran alone without being hugged. She ran from the north end to the south end. She is tired."
Cao Zhengyin stood up and said, "It's a little kid, let her sleep quickly."
Then he turned to Cao Zhenghu and said, "Brother Hu, it's getting late today. I have to go back. Let's talk another day."
"Why are you going back? I still want to let you have dinner together!" Cao Zhenghu stood up quickly.
The New Year's Eve dinner was ready, and they were waiting for Cao Shujie to come back.
Cao Zhengyin waved his hand: "We are also preparing at home. If I don't go back, they will have to wait without food."
The truth is, it’s not good to stay out to eat on New Year’s Eve.
When Cao Shujie sent him out, Cao Zhengyin also said: "Shujie, go back quickly."
"Okay, grandpa, please take your time on the road." Cao Shujie told him.
Cao Zhengyin waved his hand: "There are street lights, and there are so many people strolling on the street. What are you afraid of?"
Cao Shujie smiled and nodded, watching Cao Zhengyin turn west onto the main road before returning home.
Returning to the house, my sister Cao Huifang had already started serving dishes from the kitchen.
Seeing her brother come in, Cao Guifang shouted, "Brother, it's time to eat."
"I'll get a bottle of wine." Cao Shujie said.
After a while, he came over with a bottle of Wuliangye and said to his grandfather and father: "There are still two bottles of wine left in the box. I will find someone to buy you a box of Maotai another day."
"Shujie, don't buy it, it's too expensive." Cao Jianguo felt distressed.
Even if his son earns a lot of money, he still can't accept it. He thinks it makes no difference to drink something that costs more than ten yuan a bottle.
When he thought that a box of Wuliangye would be bottomed out so soon, he began to settle accounts.
Wang Yuelan looked at her husband's troubled expression and said to him: "Look at your potential!"
"Haha, dad, my mom said you should be more successful!" Cao Huifang teased her father.
Cheng Xiaolin put her daughter in the bedroom upstairs. When she came downstairs, she felt very satisfied listening to the laughter in the living room.
The Spring Festival Gala has also begun. Cao Shujie looked at the familiar face of Li Yong in the host lineup and felt a little dazed, feeling as if his previous life experiences were in a dream.
"Shujie, let me ask you something." Grandpa Cao Zhenghu just finished eating a piece of fish and put down his chopsticks and asked.
"Grandpa, please tell me."
Cao Zhenghu pointed at the TV and said: "They all said that Lao Zhao will not attend the Spring Festival Gala this year. Is it true?"
"Well, I won't go to school starting this year." Cao Shujie said.
Hearing what he said, Cao Zhenghu shook his head and said, "Then the Spring Festival Gala is not interesting to watch."
He said: "We just had dinner and I saw so many people jumping and singing. It's not funny at all."
This is a fact, but there is nothing we can do about it.
Not to mention grandfather Cao Zhenghu, even father Cao Jianguo and mother Wang Yuelan found it boring.
They just wanted to see Lao Zhao's skit and thought it was funny.
His sister Cao Huifang didn't pay much attention at all.
Before dinner, cute shouting came from upstairs. Just when Cao Shujie was thinking of going upstairs to have a look, Cheng Xiaolin stood up and ran upstairs: "Shujie, you stay with our dad and us.
Grandpa is having a drink, I can just go and take a look."
Seven or eight minutes later, Cheng Xiaolin came downstairs with Mengmeng, who had just woken up and was still rubbing her eyes.
"She has only slept for less than an hour, so don't sleep tonight." Cheng Xiaolin complained.
Cao Shujie laughed: "It's okay. When the time comes, you go to bed and I'll play with her."
At the critical moment, Mengmeng's little mouth was very sweet and she was very clever. After coming down, she walked up to Cao Zhenghu, clasped her hands in her fists and said, "Grandpa, Happy New Year."
"Hey, Happy New Year to Mengmeng." Cao Zhenghu was very happy when he saw Mengmeng like this.
He went to dig into his pocket and actually asked him to take out a yellowish square handkerchief. After peeling it open layer by layer, he took out a red 100 yuan bill: "Mengmeng, here, the lucky money."
Mengmeng didn't know what to do. She looked back at her father and then her mother, feeling a little at a loss.
Cheng Xiaolin was still hesitating whether to accept the new year's money or not. Cao Shujie said: "Mengmeng, why don't you thank your grandfather quickly?"
"Thank you, grandpa. Mengmeng kowtows to you." Mengmeng said, and knelt down to kowtow to Cao Zhenghu in a decent manner.
Cao Shujie subconsciously looked at his wife, his eyes conveying a signal: "Did you teach me this?"
Cheng Xiaolin was also confused at this moment. She did not expect that her daughter knew so much at the critical moment: "How could I teach this."
Even her daughter just said Happy New Year to her grandfather Cao Zhenghu, but she didn’t even teach her!
But it’s no use, no one really believes it at this time.
But Mengmeng didn't let anyone go. Cao Jianguo and Wang Yuelan, the old couple, had their turn to visit their aunt Cao Huifang, and she paid homage to them a few more times.
As a result, Cao Huifang paid twice more.
When Cao Shujie saw this scene from the side, he felt that it was very evil and Mengmeng was a bit demonic.
Does she know what money is for?
"Mengmeng, who taught you this?" When Mengmeng came to Cao Shujie and was about to repeat her old trick, Cao Shujie picked her up and held her in his arms.
Mengmeng pointed at the TV: "There."
"Has this been shown on TV?" Cao Shujie couldn't remember.
But these are innocuous little things.
When Wang Yuelan saw that her granddaughter was awake, she took the initiative to go to the kitchen and get a small bowl: "Mengmeng, it's time to have some food together when you wake up."
"Grandma, I'm not hungry." Mengmeng shook her head and touched her belly for everyone to see: "Look at my big belly, hehe."
Cheng Xiaolin understood as soon as she thought about it and asked her husband: "Shujie, how much did Mengmeng eat out?"
"I eat wherever I go, and my mouth never stops anyway," Cao Shujie said, recalling the scene when her daughter followed her to pay New Year's greetings in the evening.
Hearing him say this, the whole family burst out laughing.
They think it is a blessing for children to eat and their bodies will grow faster.
Mengmeng didn't eat, and her eyes fell on the TV. She found any program in the Spring Festival Gala very interesting.
But when they saw the sketch "Today's Happiness", no one else reacted. Mengmeng suddenly raised her finger and pointed at the TV screen and said: "Dad, look, mom, look, little kitten."
"Where?" Cao Shujie was confused. Their little wild cat had been patrolling on the roof and would not enter the house.
Cheng Xiaolin also searched everywhere, but couldn't find it.
Mengmeng still pointed to the TV screen and said: "Look, there it is! The window!"
Only then did Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin realize that their daughter was referring to the Spring Festival Gala program on the TV.
With doubts in their hearts, they quickly raised their heads and looked over. Who knew that Mengmeng suddenly said again: "Ah, the kitten is gone, it has disappeared."
"..."
Cao Shujie and the others always find it a bit strange. On such a big stage as the Spring Festival Gala, in such a serious occasion, during the performance, there will be kittens running up?
And what the hell is it that disappeared?
"Mengmeng, has the kitten escaped?" Cao Shujie asked doubtfully.
Mengmeng shook her head and said: "No, it's just...nothing."
It was Chinese New Year, the firecrackers had just been set off, and the heater was still on in the room, but Cheng Xiaolin still felt chilly all over.
Therefore, according to old legend, there is a folk saying that children's eyes are relatively clean and pure, and they can see some things that ordinary people cannot see before they are 3 years old.
"No way?" Cheng Xiaolin didn't dare to look at the TV screen.
"It's Chinese New Year, don't talk nonsense." Cao Shujie muttered?
Cao Jianguo and Wang Yuelan were also a little surprised.
On the contrary, Cao Zhenghu didn't care very much. He said, "It's okay if you don't want to."
After he finished speaking, Mengmeng followed up and said: "Dad, look, little kitten."
"Where?" Cao Shujie looked directly at the TV screen, trying to find something different.
But he didn't see anything, and Cao Jianguo didn't notice anything either. Cao Zhenghu straightened his back, looking a bit like a tiger with a strong back, and stared at the TV screen: Where is it?"
Mengmeng raised her hand anxiously and pointed to a place: "There."
But Cao Shujie and the others didn't notice it. After a while, Mengmeng said again: "The kitten is gone."
"..."
Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin both felt tired.
The old couple Cao Jianguo and Wang Yuelan were not interested in these youthful programs. After watching them for less than half an hour, they were busy clearing away the dishes and preparing to rest. They will also go out to pay New Year greetings tomorrow.
Grandpa Cao Zhenghu was too old after all. He started to feel sleepy after 10 o'clock and went to bed early.
Cheng Xiaolin originally wanted to take Mengmeng upstairs to rest, but who knew that Mengmeng kept pointing at the Spring Festival Gala being broadcast on TV and shouting: "Watch this."
"Mengmeng, there will be a replay during the day tomorrow, let's watch it then." Cheng Xiaolin coaxed her.
But it was no use. Mengmeng didn't listen to this at all. She twisted her body back and forth and said, "I won't, I just want to watch."
"It's too late. How long do you want to sleep until tomorrow?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.
"I don't care!" Mengmeng was anxious, looking like she was about to cry at any moment.
Cao Shujie said: "Daughter-in-law, you go up and rest first, I will stay with her below."
Cheng Xiaolin was indeed very sleepy. When her husband said this, she didn't show any pretense and went upstairs by herself.
Cao Shujie remembered something. He went upstairs to take down his laptop, turned on the computer, connected to the Internet, then logged into the BTC trading platform and entered his account number and password.
As soon as I logged in, I saw the trading curve of Bitcoin. The current position is 6.87 US dollars per coin. Calculated according to the intraday price, the current position is equivalent to 48.09 yuan.
Cao Shujie holds a total of 33,902 coins, with a total investment of 600,000 yuan.
Based on the current price, the total value of his holdings is 1.6303 million yuan.
Calculated from the first purchase on July 28 last year to the last transaction on November 7, based on the longest time, it was a total of 177 days, with a profit of more than 1.03 million points, and an average daily profit of more than 5,800 yuan.
"Mom, I'm not as good at making money as I am from working so hard." Cao Shujie complained.
Despite this, Cao Shujie did not go crazy and invested all his money desperately.
"In another year and a half, I will sell the last cover, and I don't know what the price will be then." Cao Shujie thought to himself.
But he believes it will definitely not be lower than the current price.
Mengmeng watched the entire Spring Festival Gala below, and then she shouted that she was very sleepy and wanted to go to bed.
Cao Shujie carried her up to the second floor. As soon as he entered the bedroom, he found his wife sitting up on the bed playing with her mobile phone.
"You didn't sleep?" Cao Shujie asked her.
Cheng Xiaolin looked at Mengmeng lying in her husband's arms and said sheepishly: "Don't mention it, I just had a nightmare. I dreamed of a cat running over to me. I couldn't sleep no matter what."
Cao Shujie didn't know what to say. This was his daughter's fault and he couldn't bear it.
But he also said: "Mengmeng might be talking nonsense for fun, but you would believe it even if she is a child!"
Cheng Xiaolin was devastated. She said: "I don't believe it either, but the problem is that I just checked on my mobile phone and there were people on the Internet who said they saw a kitten in that program. What on earth did this happen?"
