Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 16 Crazy Bubble

With Zhao Xuhe's guarantee, Lu Yang successfully borrowed 2000 contribution points from the "Sanhe Association" behind him, and then bought all the scapegoats.

On the other side, Zhao Xuhe was also pacing excitedly in the cave.

"The news is actually true!"

After receiving the news from his master, he was immediately excited: "The Holy Sect's mass grave in Jiangnan was actually captured by the Jade Pivot Sword Pavilion."

"The one who attacked was the Third Elder of the Jade Pivot Sword Pavilion, the peerless swordsman known as the 'Master of Subduing Demons'."

"It's impossible to take it back in a short period of time."

"With the mass graves lost, the price of the surrogate puppets is bound to rise in a short period of time. This is a great opportunity for us to speculate and hoard goods!"

“I’m going to be rich!”

Being able to become a deacon disciple of the Good Merit Building in the Holy Sect, Zhao Xuhe certainly had no lack of background and connections, nor did he lack vision and greed. Therefore, as soon as he confirmed that Lu Yang's news was true, he immediately started to collect money, and then used all the cash in his hand to buy a substitute Yin puppet.

And things developed just as he expected.

As the incident of the Jiangnan mass grave spread, more and more people who "sense the business opportunity" began to buy up the goods on the market and purchase scapegoats at high prices.

As with all speculative bubbles, those who got in first made a lot of money.

However, as the incident unfolded, everyone discovered that the price of the scapegoat puppet showed no sign of decreasing. It was high when bought and even higher when sold.

Making money suddenly became easy.

As long as you buy and sell, you can easily earn contribution points that used to require completing several or even dozens of sect tasks.

As a result, there are more crazy people.

More and more people began to use their savings to enter the market, hoping to make money, and then they did make money, which further stimulated the market.

Even the more cautious people would naturally feel unbalanced when they found that their fellow disciples, whom they looked down upon, simply bought things, waited a few days, and then sold them, making more money than themselves. So they naturally joined the trend.

Under such a trend, the price of substitute puppets has been rising steadily.

From the initial 200 contribution points, it climbed all the way to 300 contribution points. The % price increase made countless speculators even more crazy.

After all, its price has not stagnated, but is still rising.

It's rising today, and it will definitely rise tomorrow. If it rises tomorrow, why wouldn't it continue to rise the day after tomorrow? If you don't buy at this time, you will lose money!
So more and more people heard the news and took action.

300, 400, 500. Finally, when the price soared to 500 contribution points, people regained their senses and felt that it was about right.

“It’s ready to sell!”

Zhao Xuhe was the first to grasp this delicate moment and began to secretly sell off in batches the scapegoats he had previously stockpiled, preparing to cash out and leave.

At the same time, prices in the entire scapegoat market also began to fall.

After all, Zhao Xuhe is not the only smart person in the world. Some people have also keenly seen the downward trend and started to gradually sell off the goods in their hands.

If things continue to develop in this way, within a few days, the price will completely collapse and then return to normal.

However, just when such a wave was about to subside, suddenly, a piece of news spread from the top leaders of Chusheng Sect to the entire sect overnight.

"The Holy Sect is preparing to counterattack!"

"The loss of the Jiangnan Mass Graves caused a master from within the sect to become furious. He decided to personally take action, mobilizing his disciples to launch a counterattack and engage the Yushu Sword Pavilion!"

"The war is coming!" During wartime, the prices of all materials that are beneficial to the war will increase.

And how important is the scapegoat puppet, a prop that can save lives at critical moments, in the bloody and cruel upcoming battle between good and evil?

It's like a second life!
There is no doubt that on the very night when this news spread, the price of the substitute Yin puppet, which had already begun to fall, experienced a second surge!
Not only did it instantly return to its peak level of 500 contribution points, but it was still climbing!
By the next morning, 500 contribution points had become 1000 contribution points, which was five times the original price of 200 contribution points!
"Hahahahaha!"

In the library, Wang Bairong was seen standing on his beloved rocking chair, dancing excitedly, his old face filled with excitement and fanaticism.

"Rise! Keep rising!"

"No, I have to buy some more. I won't make much money if I sell so little now. If I stock up a little more, I'll have enough contribution points for a cave!"

At this moment, the entire Holy Sect was filled with the carnival of ordinary disciples.

These ordinary disciples have little vision, connections, or information channels, so when others are secretly selling, they are still buying.

And now, they have.

I don’t know how many ordinary disciples’ net worth doubled overnight, and the money they earned even exceeded the total assets of some senior disciples with good connections.

For a time, countless Arabian Nights stories spread throughout the Holy Sect.

For example, a poor boy who was divorced by his fiancée in public, divorced his fiancée in anger after his wealth doubled, leaving behind a sentence: "Don't bully the poor young man."
Another example is a little girl who had to live with someone else because her father died and her mother remarried. Before buying a surrogate ghost, she was beaten and scolded by her stepmother every day and couldn't even keep her father's inheritance. Now her wealth has doubled, and she immediately bought a high-end cave house with full payment.
Do you have a dream? Do you want to realize it?

Come and buy a scapegoat!
This madness that everyone was throwing themselves into culminated one day when a disciple who had reached the perfection of Qi training suddenly broke through and reached the peak after successfully establishing his foundation.

Because the disciple who successfully established his foundation publicly admitted that the reason he was able to break through was entirely because he earned enough contribution points by buying and selling the Death Substitute Yin Puppet, and then paid the full amount for a Foundation Establishment Pill, so he wanted to thank the Death Substitute Yin Puppet. If it were not for it, he would not have been able to change his fate.
Totally crazy.

The prices of 1000, 2000, and 3000 substitute ghosts have skyrocketed. Looking at the soaring prices, some people are happy, while others are sad.

Happy people, like Lu Yang.

He didn't talk about it and decisively chose to sell when the price soared to 2000.

After all, I bought 200 at the original price of 10 contribution points and sold them for 2000 contribution points. That means I made ten times the profit, and earned contribution points!
Sad people, like Zhao Xuhe.

When he saw the price go back up, he regretted it so much, especially after seeing Wang Bairong, whom he had looked down upon and even intended to harm before.

As far as he knew, Wang Bairong, a guy who had been mediocre for decades and whose half body was almost buried in the ground, had hoarded more than 20 substitute ghosts, all of which were bought at high prices during this period. When he secretly sold them off before, he secretly laughed at himself for being a leek to be harvested.

But now, he is almost earning 10 contribution points!
If I just didn’t make any money, that would be fine.

But when Zhao Xuhe saw that Wang Bairong earned so many contribution points and was grinning from ear to ear every day, he felt even more upset than if he had lost money at his expense!
After seeing the unstoppable rise in the price of the death substitute puppet, Zhao Xuhe thought about it over and over again and hesitated for the entire night.

Finally, he made a second entry.

The contribution points he had earned from leaving the market were thrown back into the market of scapegoats.

At the beginning, he was cautious and did not invest all his contribution points, but as the price continued to rise, he felt that he was losing a little with every increase.

"Opportunities are fleeting, and once lost, they never come back. I've already missed it once, so how can I miss it a second time?"

"It will continue to rise. It's better to buy now than later."

There are many people who share the same idea as Zhao Xuri.

When this group of people who cashed out first returned to the market, it stimulated the rise of the substitute Yin Kui again and strengthened people's confidence.
