Chapter 28 Stocks and Mansions
Only a few hours later, the evening news on major TV stations, and all social networks, began to show reports of the "killing of the CEO of the Begginton Research Center."
Under the frantic pursuit of the news media, the LSPD serious crime team in charge of this case was forced to disclose some information about the case.
Inside, Lu Qi didn't have any information against him.
Thinking of the clues he left in the whole operation, Lu Qi felt that even if all the LSPDs were Leeuwenhoek, it would be impossible to find him...
. . .
The next day, under the influence of the assassination incident, as soon as the stock market opened, Bigington's stock price began to plummet.
At the same time, the stock price of Bigington's nemesis, Beta Pharmaceuticals, rose wildly.
Anyone with a heart understands that the death of the CEO must be a major blow to Billington.
The addition of major capitals has made this financial feast a lively event...
In just five days, the stock price of Beta Pharmaceuticals, which has been rising all the way, has risen to an all-time high of $736!
When Lu Qi bought it, the unit price of each share was $460.
In other words, the entire stock price of Beta Pharmaceuticals has risen by an astonishing 160%! ! !
However, such a crazy increase has also begun to stabilize with the entry of a large number of capital.
Looking at the stock price that had not risen, Lu Qi made a decisive decision, and before the stock showed a downward trend, he directly threw out all the Beta Pharma stocks on hand.
This time and again, even with the profit, he got 650,000 all at once!
Seeing that the funds in the bank account had almost tripled, Lu Qi couldn't help but sigh: "Still investing in stocks to make money!"
Of course, he would not foolishly hold the hundreds of thousands on hand, rush into the stock market, and wrestle with the big players in the stock market.
Because that is simply fantastic!
A small retail investor like him may have been extinguished by the big wave of the stock market before he could react, leaving no slag left.
Lu Qi is a self-aware person.
Unless there is inside information from Lester, he will not easily put his money back into the stock market...
Just when Lu Qi was thinking about whether to wait for Bigington's stock price to drop to the bottom and try to copy a wave, Lester suddenly called.
"Hey Lester, did you get my text?"
"Yes, well done."
After a pause, Lester continued:
"Well, it goes like this... One thing, I have to tell you, we've had a little... little success with our portfolio. So, we need some tangible assets, which is real estate. So we bought one in Hollywood Hills. House."
Hearing this, Lu Qi was a little stunned, as if thinking of something, he raised his brows and said:
"House in Hollywood...nice investment..."
"So, we need someone to live there to avoid paying the vacancy tax, and you'd better pack up and move in right away."
As soon as the words fell, Lu Qi couldn't help muttering in his heart:
it is as expected!
In the original game plot, the assassination mission released by Lester was completed by Franklin.
As a result, Franklin was able to live in a mansion in Hollywood.
However, the appearance of Lu Qi took Franklin's place.
Naturally, the good things that should have belonged to Franklin spread to him.
Although I felt a little sorry for Franklin, Lu Qi did not refuse such a good thing, and immediately replied:
"Lester...you do this, I really don't know what to say, but...thank you for thinking of me."
Lu Qi's thanks made Lester on the other end of the phone a little happy, and his tone became slightly lighter:
"Hey, my friend, it's your hard work, enjoy it! The address of the house is 3671 Westpeymont Avenue, and I've sent you the key, so be sure to check it."
"Okay, next time you have an errand, remember to call me."
"Um."
After hanging up, Lu Qi walked to the first floor and opened his mailbox.
Inside, there is only a single letter.
Back at the apartment, he opened the envelope and poured it out. A bunch of keys fell on the coffee table.
Looking at the key, Lu Qi couldn't help muttering:
"House in Hollywood..."
Without thinking too much, just like he didn't hesitate to put the scope on Ret Laurie's head, he immediately grabbed the keys and drove out of the apartment...
. . .
More than ten minutes later, it is located on West Pimont Avenue in Hollywood.
The sound of the engine faded away, and Lu Qi drove his motorcycle and stopped in front of a villa.
Taking off his helmet, Lu Qi looked up and down at the mansion in front of him, and could not help whispering:
"Number 3671... it should be here..."
The Hollywood mansion purchased by Lester is a single-family double-storey villa located halfway up the mountain. It is estimated to cover an area of about 700 to 800 square meters.
There is a private garage as well as two doors to the interior of the house.
According to the prices that Lu Qi saw on the website of the real estate company, a luxury house of the same level would cost at least one million yuan.
From this, it can be speculated that Lester's investment income from this stock price fluctuation is definitely not less than 2 million.
After parking the car, Lu Qi directly took out the key, opened the front door on the right, and walked into this million-dollar mansion.
The same internal structure he saw when he was playing the game.
This mansion is a two-storey duplex style.
The second floor is the main public area such as living room and dining room. The first floor is the bedroom, study, guest room and other private spaces.
In addition, the balcony on the first floor is the swimming pool and barbecue area.
It is worth mentioning that the master bedroom and the balcony are only separated by a floor-to-ceiling window.
After getting up every morning, Lu Qi could even go directly to the swimming pool on the balcony to take a dip.
The whole house has about five rooms, three separate toilets, daily furniture and household appliances.
After walking around the house, Lu Qi, who felt a little tired, returned to the living room.
Sitting on the soft sofa and looking around, Lu Qi suddenly thought of the original owner of this mansion.
The thought of Franklin still living with his aunt miserably made Lu Qi feel a little inexplicably sorry, and he always wanted to do something for Franklin to make up for it.
After thinking about it, Lu Qi had an idea and suddenly thought of an idea.
He took out his mobile phone, and when the call was connected, Lu Qi immediately asked:
"Franklin, where are you now?"
"Uh?"
. . .
South Los Santos, Strawberry, Vanilla Unicorn Club.
Under the dim and psychedelic light, Lu Qi finally found Franklin drinking in the corner booth.
"Yo buddy, here you are!"
After saying hello to Franklin, Lu Qi took the opportunity to sit opposite Xiao Fu.
Judging by only a third of the bottles remaining on the table, Franklin had already drank quite a bit.
"Hey hey, have you never been here before? The riot is your territory, and this is my territory!"
After saying that, Franklin, whose face was already red, suddenly got up, stopped a passing waiter, took out a few ten-dollar bills, and stuffed them into the scars that the other party forcibly squeezed out, and ordered:
"Hey Juliet, a special dance for my brother!"
The blonde girl wearing only a pink bikini looked at Lu Qi, licked the corners of her lips, and said softly, "No problem..."
Seeing that the girl came over with her waist twisted and was about to jump on him, Lu Qi quickly stopped the other party, pointed to Franklin, and explained:
"Thank you, ma'am, next time, I have something to tell him now."
It's not that he doesn't have that need, it's just that the other party really doesn't fit his personal aesthetic...
"Okay, little guy..."
After giving Lu Qi an electrifying wink, the girl reluctantly left.
"What's the matter?"
Looking at Franklin who sat down again with a puzzled face, Lu Qi smiled slightly and asked:
"Hey, do you want to live alone?"
