Chapter 675 - 286: The Future Impact on Children’s Civil Service Exams
Jiang Banxia basically doesn’t touch Li Yang’s things, this cabinet is the first time she has opened it.
Of course, Li Yang wasn’t afraid of her looking either, there weren’t many secrets between them.
She took a glance at those USB drives, some of which had labels with simple numbers, while others were unlabeled.
The labeled and unlabeled ones were all of the same type.
When Li Yang came back, he saw Jiang Banxia placing the USB drives on the bed, while she was searching for something in the cabinet.
"Master Jiang, what are you looking for?"
"Looking for some jewelry, I remember you brought it back for me, but after searching for a long time, I still can’t find it."
Li Yang: "..."
Every year he would buy some jewelry from Xiumu and bring it back, convenient for giving gifts to elders.
Jiang Banxia knew about this, he even took photos to show her.
"Well... I forgot to bring it back, was in a bit of a hurry to go home, left it in Jiangbei."
Jiang Banxia, who was searching, immediately poked her head out.
She couldn’t accept this outcome.
She distinctly remembered seeing those things, but when she tried to find them suddenly, they were nowhere to be found.
Who could have thought those things simply weren’t brought back?
"Okay then."
She stopped searching and instead put Li Yang’s USB drives back in the cabinet, then climbed directly onto the bed, pulled the quilt over her head, and said nothing.
Li Yang quickly leaned over and asked, resting on her shoulder: "Honey, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing... just suddenly feel like my brain’s not working well."
"Huh? That’s all? That’s totally normal. I often have this strange feeling of familiarity when I’m doing something, feeling like I’ve done it before, with all the same details. The human brain is like a computer program, occasionally having a bug is normal. For years, I would look at photos, then bring the items back, which formed a subconscious for you. In terms of algorithms, it means your habitual thinking has been tagged, and the next step, the program will automatically lean in this direction, that’s the basis of artificial intelligence..."
"Am I a program?"
"That’s just a way of saying it, alright, alright, don’t overthink it, I’ll wash up and be right back."
During pregnancy, it’s normal for Jiang Banxia to be a bit sensitive occasionally.
About ten minutes later, when Li Yang returned to the bedroom, he saw Jiang Banxia had taken those USB drives out again.
Seeing Li Yang come in, Jiang Banxia asked, "Hubby, are there seeds inside these USB drives you guys talk about?"
"What seeds? I don’t need that stuff. These hold Bitcoins, and you just reminded me, I need to transfer them."
"Bitcoin?"
"Yeah, wait here for a bit, I’ll handle it, won’t take long."
"Together, together..."
Jiang Banxia hadn’t played with Bitcoin before, just knew such a product existed.
After all, she’s an honest person, she doesn’t mess with illegal stuff domestically.
Following Li Yang to the study, Li Yang first unplugged the computer’s cable, then took a look at the wireless connection and turned off the wireless as well.
Then he started to copy from one USB drive to another.
"Why copy?"
"To avoid issues with paper wallets. USB drives used for a long time might have uncontrollable factors that if damaged, the contents would be lost. If it’s physical damage, no matter how advanced the means, it can’t be fixed."
"Oh oh... so did you lose money? The price of Bitcoin recently dropped to three thousand US dollars."
In Jiang Banxia’s view, with Bitcoin’s high price before, Li Yang must be losing money now, right?
This could be her first time witnessing him losing money.
She relished seeing Li Yang lose money.
Extreme Shadow Cars and Green Water Group aren’t losses, now is not the time to see results yet.
"Didn’t lose, my average cost is six hundred and fifty US dollars."
Jiang Banxia: "Ah? Did you buy them years ago?"
"Yeah, I bought some in freshman year and more in sophomore, twenty thousand coins."
"But when Bitcoin was worth twenty thousand US dollars, why didn’t you sell?"
Back then, twenty thousand Bitcoins were worth four hundred million dollars.
Jiang Banxia thought this guy earned money too easily.
She worked tirelessly, under Li Yang’s guidance, and the company’s earnings were only around billions.
Every time she wanted good performance, they relied on Li Yang to maneuver.
"Can’t sell, can’t withdraw too much money from the market, or no one would play Bitcoin."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Hehe, just what it says."
Li Yang finished copying, put away the USB drives, and returned to the bedroom.
Jiang Banxia was pondering over what Li Yang said.
The Bitcoin market is quite large now, Li Yang doesn’t have the ability to cash out twenty thousand Bitcoins?
He definitely does.
But why did he say cashing out would withdraw too much money from the market?
Four hundred million dollars isn’t a small amount, but on the current Bitcoin market layout, it’s not a huge amount, it shouldn’t affect the situation.
Looking at it this way... there seem to be only two possibilities.
Either Li Yang doesn’t think he’s made enough yet and is waiting for the next opportunity.
Or Li Yang has more than twenty thousand, has already cashed out a bunch, and these twenty thousand can’t be cashed out.
...
The next day, New Year’s Eve.
Early in the morning, Wang Cuiping bought fresh vegetables and came over, making breakfast for the two.
While Li Yang was being lazy, Jiang Banxia was researching things about Bitcoin.
