Resurrection Empire

Just after exiting the virtual classroom, Ren Zhong immediately received a group chat invitation.

He hesitated for a moment and accepted the invitation.

The simulated scene shifted, and Ren Zhong appeared in a clean and elegant virtual cafe, sitting on the terrace with Wu Big Mouth, Li Ruoling, and four others.

Wu Big Mouth proudly said, "Ren Zhong, what do you think of my little house in this Virtual Life? I spent a lot on hiring professional designers for it. It's also equipped with advanced AI housekeepers. Listen to that piano, the licensing fee wasn't cheap either."

Ren Zhong glanced around and had to admit that the small cafe indeed looked exquisite, fresh, and elegant.

He commented, "Wu Big Mouth, you're indeed detail-oriented. Almost all the arrangements subtly follow the golden ratio. Even though it's just a virtual small house, it clearly took a lot of effort. Even the jars on the shelves have been specially designed."

Wu Big Mouth chuckled, "It's not just what you see on the surface. I also purchased the Five Senses enhancement service. Here, you can actually taste the coffee. Ren Zhong, try it and see if it tastes right. I heard you were once an outsider and only got rich recently. If you have any ideas about enjoying life, feel free to ask me."

Ren Zhong nodded with a smile, "Sure."

After Wu Big Mouth finished speaking, he discreetly gave a wink to Li Ruoling.

Li Ruoling understood and privately messaged Ren Zhong, trying to get contact information from "Dream Inn."

Ren Zhong, however, decisively replied that he had never played "Dream Inn."

Li Ruoling was in contact with Wu Big Mouth behind the scenes. Seeing that his plan failed, Wu Big Mouth straightforwardly asked, "By the way, Ren Zhong, I heard that although the previous boss of Starfire Resources, Yang Bingzhong, was arrested over the Alien Ore incident, he had already gone bankrupt due to stock trading before that?"

When this topic was mentioned, Ren Zhong didn't hold back and nodded. "Yes, it's true. I advised him back then, but he was already obsessed, and I couldn't persuade him. I was even more surprised that despite having a contract with me, he secretly sought private equity, madly mortgaging loans and leveraging, eventually leading to this outcome. It's self-inflicted, and even an Immortal couldn't save him. I could guarantee a win rate and only took 10% of the profits. He was too greedy and dissatisfied even with that."

Wu Big Mouth's eyes lit up, "Ren Zhong, are your stock trading skills real?"

Ren Zhong smiled slightly, moved his fingers, and opened his stock market account with permissions.

He didn't show them his current positions, only the majority of his trading records up to the 65th day, showcasing his nearly 100% win rate.

Everyone was stunned.

Ren Zhong candidly admitted, "The stock market has patterns in usual circumstances. However, I'm talking about usual cases; whether you can make money involves many factors. For example, if I enter a small-cap stock with over a hundred billion in capital, while its total market value is only two hundred billion, my entry capital is too large, and my approach naturally shifts from retail to being a market maker. There will be others opposing my moves. In this situation, the patterns are less reliable. So, my capability is probably limited to capital under a hundred billion; anything beyond that won't work."

Wu Big Mouth marveled, "I see. I've learned something."

Beside him, Li Ruoling could no longer control her excitement and asked, "So, Ren Zhong, which stock are you buying now?"

Ren Zhong smiled and said nothing.

Li Ruoling immediately realized her presumptuousness.

Ren Zhong added, "In my industry, there are principles. I am not an internet celebrity who just talks but isn't accountable for profits and losses. I won't recommend stocks to anyone, because I can't determine how far a piece of information could spread, or what kind of butterfly effect a recommendation might cause, understand? If you want to learn, I can discuss a bit. But besides that, don't ask."

Li Ruoling stuck out her tongue, "Got it."

During this hour, Ren Zhong shared his past operational philosophies with seven eager learners.

It was his tried-and-true method of deducing the process from the result, which was still highly effective and astonishing.

As it approached 6 AM, Wu Big Mouth and the seven others were still wanting more.

Everyone looked at Ren Zhong longingly, perhaps worried he would only share once.

Ren Zhong smiled, indicating they could continue tomorrow morning, which reassured everyone.

Ren Zhong's "showing off" was not without purpose.
