Chapter 454: The heart of greed has never changed
Back at Li's house, Jerry Chen put his clothes directly on the bed, and several women rummaged and searched for them.
"That's all about these clothes, Jerry Chen, this is too low-grade!!"
After turning for a while, Luo Weiwei pouted and said.
There is no one here that she can look at, and yes, as the eldest lady of the Luo family, the clothes are also famous brands, most of them are hand-customized, and the first look here is the poor style and poor workmanship.
Zhang Xue also flipped over, disdain flashed in her eyes, but she didn't speak.
Sister Ying and Tang Tiantian chose two by themselves, Sister Ying didn't care, Tang Tiantian knew that there was no other choice.
"Love to wear it or not, you should be a place here, it's good to be able to buy clothes, and pick and choose."
Jerry Chen didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he walked directly to the chair on the side and sat down, then took a lunch box from the table and started eating.
The lunch box was packed in a roadside restaurant on the way back, and in order to save time, the rice was all topped with green pepper and shredded pork.
Seeing this, Luo Weiwei looked depressed, Zhang Xue directly chose two clothes and walked towards the bathroom, obviously planning to take a bath.
In the end, only Luo Weiwei was left sitting on the bed sulking, and Sister Ying wanted to comfort the eldest lady on the side, but after thinking about it, she still didn't speak.
Tang Tiantian took the lunch box, smiled at Luo Weiwei, and said, "Anyway, just wear it for a few days, and when you return to the imperial capital, you can wear whatever you want." By the way, let me tell you something, today I met three stupid thieves on the road with my boss, hahaha"
Before she could start talking, Tang Tiantian was happy when she thought of today's events.
"What kind of stupid thief, so happy?" Luo Weiwei said curiously.
So Tang Tiantian roughly talked about today's events, and after listening to his words, Luo Weiwei and Sister Ying both laughed.
"Oh my God, what kind of era is this, and there are still people who use cans to cheat money."
"Hehe, this trick to cheat money was not popular twenty years ago."
The two of them naturally knew this outdated and rotten street trick, and they both ridiculed it with disdain.
Jerry Chen pulled the rice bowl, heard the ridicule of the two, raised his head and glanced at them, and said lightly: "Is it funny?" ”
"Of course it's funny, only fools will be fooled." Luo Weiwei clasped her hands and looked at her proudly.
Sister Ying also nodded slightly.
"Huh." Jerry Chen shook his head disdainfully and put the half-eaten lunch box on the table.
Tang Tiantian, who was on the side, saw his movements, and hurriedly put down the fast food and handed him a glass of water; "Boss, drink water, there's no tea here."
This is a habitual action, and Luo Weiwei and Sister Ying, who are looking directly, roll their eyes for a while.
The understanding of each other these days has let the two know that although Tang Tiantian is said to be Jerry Chen's "agent", he is actually doing the work of a nanny and a maid.
"Hmm." Jerry Chen took the teacup and nodded with satisfaction, although Tang Tiantian is not good, but it is okay in the small things of daily life.
Perhaps, she is suitable for this.
Jerry Chen took a sip of water, looked at Luo Weiwei and Sister Ying and said, "There are always a lot of fools in this world, and there are not enough liars. As long as people still have desires, there is greed. You think this trick is very old and low-level, but what kind of trick is there that hasn't been upgraded from the old trick. ”
Putting down the teacup, Jerry Chen continued: "Let's take the current P2P thunderstorm financial platform that is very popular and has caused widespread heated discussions, was it not there twenty or thirty years ago? Why can it still attract thousands of people to be deceived and victimized? ”
"Jerry Chen, what you said is wrong, you haven't paid attention to it on the Internet for twenty or thirty years! How is it possible to have a P2P investment management platform. Luo Weiwei hugged her hands and held her head high and said wrongly.
Although Sister Ying didn't know this, she naturally stood on the side of the eldest lady.
"Really? What will the rats of twenty or thirty years ago say? What is the difference between illegal fundraising, illegal gold absorption, and high interest rates as bait, and the current P2P platform? To put it bluntly, it's all a Ponzi scheme. Jerry Chen said lightly.
It is also a deception twenty or thirty years ago, and the rat club was also in an uproar back then, more extensive than today's P2P platform mines. After all, most of the current P2P platforms deceive the petty bourgeoisie who want to make a fortune and leave, and the rats of the year will deceive the peasant class that will affect social stability.
It's exactly the same trick, using high investment returns as bait, and investing money into a month to give 10 or even higher high profits, advertising a few months to return to the capital, and then making money with profits.
"This ...... I know that there was a rat club in our hometown at the beginning, it was called the Eight Brothers' Association at that time, illegally absorbed a large amount of funds, and then ran away, many families lost their money, and there was a lot of chaos at that time. Sister Ying suddenly nodded and said, she was born in a remote coastal town, and such a thing did happen when she was a child.
Luo Weiwei's proud face became a little unsightly, she had heard about the rat club when she was a child, because this kind of thing had not happened to the emperor, and she was still laughing at the stupidity of people in remote places when she listened to it. But now that I think about it, how similar is the current P2P thunderstorm to the original rat club, the same routine, but the difference is that it is packaged online.
In essence, it is a change of soup without a change of medicine, and new wine in old bottles.
"It's actually a little different, at least no one will believe such a scam now." Luo Weiwei didn't want to admit defeat, so she retorted to herself.
Jerry Chen smiled and said disdainfully; "It's no different, as long as people are greedy, someone will always fall for such a scam. The rat club was first invented by Ponzi in 1903, so it was also called a Ponzi scheme by later generations. At that time, Pounds advertised that as long as he put the money with him, he could get a 50% return in 45 days, and the return on capital in 90 days, and then it was all for nothing. At that time, Pounds was called a financial genius, a financial innovator, the Einstein of the financial world, and an epoch-making financial master by Bostonians. After that, everyone understands that Pounds, who squandered money like crazy, eventually went bankrupt and went bankrupt, and those who praised him lost all their money.
You see, the trick of a hundred years ago has been happening all the time in a hundred years, and with some characteristics of the times, such as the name of the Internet now, it will inevitably happen in a hundred years. ”
Luo Weiwei didn't know what to say, in fact, she also knew in her heart that as long as greed still exists, no matter how low-end the scam is, someone will always be fooled. Because people believe that they are not "stupid", because there are people who are more "stupid" than them to take over.
Therefore, P2P is also known as "beating the drum and passing the flower is more stupid than anyone else".
