At the entrance of the villa, Aunt Li took back all kinds of couriers. She unpacked the courier boxes one by one and sent them to everyone's room.

Chu Qianli didn't wait for Aunt Li to enter her room, so she couldn't wait to come out to get it. After thanking her, she unwrapped layers of foam paper, took out the small wooden box, and opened the lid to check. This store is in the same city, and the delivery speed is very fast.

Aunt Li didn't look at the items in the express delivery, and asked curiously, "What are you buying?"

Chu Qianli picked up the three crystal dice in the box. Unlike ordinary dice, they were all standard dodecahedrons, and they jingled when they were turned in her hands.

Chu Qianli introduced: "Astrological dice, a simple divination tool."

The symbols on the three astrological dice are planets, constellations, and houses. There are 36 symbols in total. They can be used to predict short-term luck. They are fast to use and easy to carry. The fly in the ointment is that they tend to answer the current situation, which is not good for things with a long timeline. judge.

Astrological tools have their own advantages and disadvantages. For complex problems, divination is required, but for simple problems, dice are a good choice.

Aunt Li seemed to understand, she looked at the jewel-like dice, and said with emotion: "It's quite beautiful."

Aunt Li regarded it as a little girl's toy and didn't take it to heart at all.

In the living room, Yu Xin glanced at the time and reminded: "Qianli, pack up after you finish taking things, we are going to Second Uncle's house!"

"Okay." Chu Qianli hurriedly responded, and hurried back to the room.

He Shichen saw Chu Qianli going upstairs irritably. He didn't want to meddle in her business, but he couldn't help but said, "Mom, since I'm going to visit my second uncle, why don't you give my sister a haircut?"

He still remembers the scene of the death in his class. Why do parents love their daughter so much

Of course, Chu Qianli is also shockingly outrageous, is this a gene

Yu Xin said kindly, "Qianli said that she would trim her hair when it grows longer, and the second uncle is also from his own family, so he won't care about appearances."

"I know you respect Uncle Er, but there's no need to be too serious, it's just a family dinner."

He Shichen has always been very demanding of himself, and has a strong self-esteem, and is meticulous in every aspect. Before his background was exposed, He Zhenghe and Yu Xin had a relaxed attitude towards He Shichen, but he had excellent self-management skills, and occasionally he was steady to the point of dullness, he didn't look like a teenager at all.

Yu Xin thought that Chu Qianli's status was closer to that of her peers, and it was obviously not appropriate for He Shichen to restrain her by his own standards. This can't be right or wrong, it's just that people are different.

He Shichen didn't agree with Yu Xin's opinion, but he also felt that he didn't need to be concerned about Chu Qianli, so he finally chose to keep his voice silent.

The family car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Chu Qianli finally hurried downstairs under Yu Xin's urging, and trotted all the way to the side of the car.

He Shichen and Chu Qianli were in one car, He Zhenghe and Yu Xin were in the other car, and the two cars set off one after the other.

Chu Qianli still had astrology dice in his pocket, and they made tinkling noises as they ran, like jade stones colliding.

He Shichen had made up his mind to ignore her just now, but now he heard a strange voice, and frowned and said: "I suggest you don't do this when you are outside."

Yu Xin and the others don't care about appearance or etiquette, but they can't stop outsiders from making irresponsible remarks. Now there are countless pairs of eyes staring at Chu Qianli, waiting to see her jokes.

Chu Qianli was at a loss: "What kind?"

He Shichen became annoyed when he saw her dumbfounded look, he opened the car door impatiently, and said coldly, "Get in the car."

Chu Qianli ran to the other side of the car door: "I can open the door and get in the car by myself."

He Shichen's blood pressure rose instantly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Come back, this way."

"why?"

"This is etiquette!" He Shichen didn't bother to care about her demeanor, but he had his own car etiquette, and he had requirements when riding with ladies, elders, etc., and he needed to open the door and give up the right seat in the back row.

When the two were going to school, He Shichen would open the door before getting in the car, and get off the car first when they arrived; when the two were leaving school, Chu Qianli chatted with Tan Muxing, breaking the rules once, and he couldn't break the rules a second time.

Facing the stubborn He Shichen, Chu Qianli had no choice but to go to his side and complained in a low voice: "... He really has a lot to do with stars."

He Shichen raised his eyebrows in displeasure, and asked suspiciously, "Did you say something indecent just now?"

As Chu Qianli got into the car, he quibbled: "What's so unrefined about the stars? How beautiful the stars are!"

He Shichen frowned. He first closed the car door, then walked around to the other side, and got in the car reservedly.

Chu Qianli witnessed his exquisite ride process, and she can roughly understand the love of the original female partner for the male lead. The original female lead was fragile and sensitive when she first arrived at the He family, and the male lead still raised a lot of things for the other party. Although the hero finally left the He family due to the love of the original heroine, the two got along fairly smoothly in the early stage.

Of course, Chu Qianli was more careless, and she only felt that He Shichen was chattering, but considering that he would still be useful in the future, such small problems could be tolerated.

Chu Qianli sighed: "Brother, other people's etiquette is gentlemanly, but I have never seen such a fierce gentleman like you, formalism is not advisable."

He Shichen cast his eyes out of the car window, pretending not to hear her fallacies.

The family quickly arrived at their destination by car.

Chu Qianli's second uncle is named He Yuanyang. He used to work on Wall Street in his early years, but now he has completely returned to China to develop. He has never married and had children, and lives alone. He Zhenghe and He Yuanyang have a good relationship, and occasionally they come to visit their younger brother and have dinner together as a family.

He Shichen respects He Yuanyang very much. He recognizes his second uncle's cutting-edge investment philosophy and often discusses his own ideas with him. When beginners used the simulated system to operate stocks, He Yuanyang encouraged He Shichen to try it in the real market, and even helped him set up accounts and funds.

When He Yuanyang saw Chu Qianli for the first time, he greeted her kindly and took out the red envelopes he had prepared in advance.

"Thank you, Second Uncle, Gong Xi Fa Cai." Chu Qianli obediently thanked him for accepting it.

At the dinner table, as soon as He Yuanyang took his seat, he chatted with He Shichen, and said enthusiastically, "Shichen, have you checked the closing information?"

Because everyone lives in China, there is a time difference with the closing of the US stock market.

He Shichen confessed: "Not yet."

He Yuanyang smiled and said: "I haven't yet, then let's guess together and see who can say it right later."

He Yuanyang and He Shichen talked about the stock market during the meeting, and Chu Qianli was confused by various terms. She doesn't understand vocabulary such as Dow Jones and Alpha at all, and she doesn't even know what ultra-short-swing trading is, which is obviously not what high school students should learn.

Chu Qianli ate at the table obediently, fearing that he would alarm the two financial giants surnamed He and delay their success in the investment field.

He Zhenghe noticed her silence, and he comforted him kindly: "Second Uncle will always talk about these things, sometimes even I can't understand."

He Yuanyang has a small problem. When talking about investment, he doesn't think about anything else, and tends to ignore the surrounding situation. He doesn't know much about the world, and occasionally says the wrong thing.

He Zhenghe was afraid that his daughter would feel left out, so he took the initiative to talk to her to help him out.

Chu Qianli had just received the thick red envelope, she had no prejudice against He Yuanyang at all, and said generously: "Very good, making money is more important."

I hope my second uncle will get rich and give me another red envelope. Don't talk to her, just give her money generously.

He Yuanyang thought about today's protagonist, he quickly adjusted the topic, and said with a smile: "Is Qianli interested in these?"

He Shichen ate slowly, but pricked up his ears to listen to her thoughts.

Chu Qianli shook his head: "I don't really understand."

He Yuanyang: "Do you have a simple understanding? For example, a basic understanding of the stock market?"

Chu Qianli: "Green leeks?"

This is what she said in her heart, thinking of the stock market is green.

Knives and forks rattled on china plates.

After hearing her answer, He Shichen was speechless. He accidentally missed and said in a low voice, "Sorry."

He Yuanyang made a relief with a smile: "Shichen, don't be so nervous, you're just green!"

"..." Although He Shichen had always admired his second uncle, he felt something was wrong after hearing this.

He Yuanyang wanted to find a common topic with Chu Qianli, but he could only talk about the investment field, so he began to explain terminology to her.

Chu Qianli is not interested in stock investment, she is only interested in the money earned from investment, she is completely in the left ear and out of the right ear, and her eyes are drifting in confusion the whole time.

After He Yuanyang finished the basic part, he asked, "Does Qianli understand now?"

Chu Qianli said honestly: "I completely forgot."

He Yuanyang was not annoyed, instead he laughed loudly: "It's not bad, it's not bad, I forget so quickly."

He Shichen: "..." Isn't this Zhang Sanfeng teaching Zhang Wuji Tai Chi Sword

He Shichen found that Chu Qianli was absent-minded, and deeply felt that she didn't know what was good and what was wrong, and missed the opportunity. How many people rushed to communicate with He Yuanyang, this is a master in the field of financial investment!

It's like Einstein teaching you elementary school physics, but you still have the ability to distract yourself in class

After the meal, He Yuanyang got up and led everyone to the living room, and suggested, "Let's guess and see the closing result."

He Shichen: "Then I guess crude oil."

Chu Qianli: "What quiz?"

He Yuanyang: "Just guess what will skyrocket before the market closes, do you want to participate?"

This is He Yuanyang and He Shichen's entertainment all the time. Chu Qianli doesn't know why high school students play this strange little game. Maybe the male protagonist has to cultivate it from an early age if he wants to control the lifeblood of the world economy.

"No-prize quiz?" Chu Qianli continued, "Then I won't guess, since people at the entrance of the village gamble for money."

He Shichen frowned: "Gathering people at the entrance of the village to gamble is a problem."

"Hey, playing cards and betting money is called gambling? Is three yuan and five yuan called money?" Under his faint gaze, Chu Qianli changed her words politely, "Okay, three yuan and five yuan are also called money."

He Yuanyang: "Then we can also gamble at home, and the person who guesses correctly will receive red envelopes from other people."

He Shichen: "Second Uncle, she doesn't even know the basics, and it's too..."

He was not interested in betting with Chu Qianli at all, and he said that he would bully the small with the big and win without fighting.

When Chu Qianli heard the red envelope, she instantly straightened her back, and her spirits lifted: "It doesn't matter if it's money or not. I'm mainly interested in the stock market."

He Shichen: "?"

Yu Xin and He Zheng sat side by side on the sofa to watch the excitement. Looking at this scene, Yu Xin smiled and said, "Then we two will be the referee."

"But I also want to guess what to do with crude oil?" He Zhenghe asked, "What did Qianli guess? Do you need me to give you options?"

"Or if you think it's too difficult, let's form a team together and fight against Shi Chen."

He Shichen said calmly, "That's fine too."

Chu Qianli took out the dice from her pocket, and she threw it on the coffee table casually: "Don't panic, I'll ask Xing Xing first, and then see if I want to form a team with my second uncle."

The three dice made a crisp sound and stopped steadily after spinning on the table. They were Jupiter, Virgo, and the 4th house.

Chu Qianli looked at it carefully, and said, "Second uncle, I want your red envelope, so let's not form a team, you and brother can form a team."

He Yuanyang was abandoned, he couldn't laugh or cry: "...Actually, there are many people out there who want to form a team with me?"

He Zhenghe stared curiously at the dice on the table, and joked, "This is the most advanced financial investment tool at the moment? To actually let He Yuanyang be laid off, I thought AI could do it."

He Zhenghe is running an Internet company, and his research direction is artificial intelligence.

Chu Qianli nodded: "For me, it is like this."

He Shichen was quite speechless, and said coolly, "I suggest you form a team with Second Uncle."

Chu Qianli: "No, I will hit two with one."

He Yuanyang: "Then each will fight, I guess the gold is ready, what does Qianli guess?"

"Should it be corn?" Chu Qianli stared at the dice, she tilted her head to ponder, and added, "Or wheat or soybeans."

Anyone can roll an astrological dice, the trick is how to read the dice, which is where divination gets really difficult. Everyone associates different things when they see planets, constellations, and houses. Only by trying to connect the fragmented information can they point to accurate results.

Even so, the information given by the stars is vague, even an abstract description, which requires its own logical derivation.

What Chu Qianli now knows is "granular grains", but it is not the feeling of rice, so he can only delineate the approximate range. It's like she divination for Ruan Ya, she can know that it is the "hottest place", but she can't name it.

Because of this, there are many liars flying around among the fortune tellers, the interpretation is slightly wrong, and the answers are very different.

He Shichen snorted coldly, thinking that she was giving away the head.

He Yuanyang asked in surprise, "The grain market? This is really an accidental choice."

"Then let's reveal the answer." He Yuanyang fetched his laptop.

Because the U.S. stock market only closes in the early morning, it has not been a long time since now, and people in China only got up to get the news.

He Yuanyang stared at the computer and said with emotion: "Sure enough, the price of crude oil is still rising, and now it has hit the highest record since last year. Shi Chen's guess is pretty accurate..."

He Shichen said modestly: "As long as you pay attention to the news, you can basically know."

That's why he felt that Chu Qianli was guessing wildly. She probably didn't watch the news at all.

He Yuanyang looked at the screen, he suddenly looked startled, sat up straight suddenly, and muttered: "Hey, the bubble in the grain market has exploded, and the price of soybeans has risen to the highest level in five years?"

He Shichen: "?"

"The prices of corn and wheat have also soared to new highs in many years..." He Yuanyang held his chin thoughtfully, "Is this a signal of an outbreak of inflation? Or is there another speculator?"

This is really unexpected, it seems that someone is manipulating the market.

He Shichen: "???"

There are indeed a lot of speculative funds in the agricultural product market, which can even cause food prices to rise and fall in a short period of time. There are many uncertain factors affecting the market, and there are relatively high financial risks.

But Chu Qianli didn't even understand the terminology, so she could guess the result!

Even He Yuanyang can't be considered exhaustive. After all, human factors cannot be ruled out. Once someone deliberately manipulates the price of food, there will be an anti-regular market situation.

"It looks like the price of food will drop sharply in the future." After He Yuanyang predicted the price trend of food, he smiled helplessly, "But is it really skyrocketing this week?"

He Yuanyang relied on more than ten years of working experience to deduce and judge, but Chu Qianli just threw the dice casually!

He Shichen's head is buzzing now, his previous cognition has been completely shattered.

His mentality as a materialist collapsed.

He Shichen strode to He Yuanyang's side, he turned to look at the screen, his pupils trembled slightly: "Impossible, how could feudal superstition defeat professional analysis..."

He absolutely cannot accept such a thing, which means that the knowledge he has learned is worthless.

Chu Qianli felt as if her tail had been stepped on, she blew up instantly, and said in a trembling voice: "What is feudal superstition? How do you insult people's innocence out of thin air?"

As a believer in Marxism, she just can't hear such words.

He Shichen pointed at the dice on the table, and he rarely raised his voice: "Then explain the scientific basis of this thing!?"

He does not believe that dice can have a reasonable relationship with the stock market.

Not to be outdone, Chu Qianli argued, "This is called astrology! You can understand it as big data analysis of numerology. Since it is big data analysis, how can it be unscientific!?"

Astrology, divination and big data analysis are not all about collecting information, looking for characteristics, and summarizing laws. They are obviously similar things, and it is nothing more than a matter of name.

He Shichen: "?"

He Zhenghe suddenly realized: "I seem to understand, the astrologer is a data analyst."

Chu Qianli put her hands on her hips: "That's right, my father is still engaged in the Internet, so I actually have a family background!"

He Shichen: "!!?" What does this have to do with the Internet

He Shichen realized.

Feudal superstition is not terrible.

The most frightening thing is that some people use the most advanced words to package feudal superstition.
