Chapter 449. The Bubble Frenzy (Happy New Year's Eve)
The brother and sister chatted about their recent situations in the hospital room, while Andor, wearing his floral hat, sat to the side and occasionally chimed in.

The three people's conversation carried a long-lost lightness, making the room seem a bit brighter.

Just as things were getting interesting, Andor looked up and saw Summers emerge from the operating room at the end of the corridor.

The doctor looked like he had just finished a long surgery; he hadn't taken off his white coat yet, and his face showed unconcealed fatigue. He had just passed by the window of Jiang Jianxin's ward.

Andorra's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his hand, greeting them in his usual enthusiastic voice:
"Hey! Lord Summers!"

Summers was startled by the sound, turned around, and saw Andor from Rose Game. His expression was clearly one of surprise and delight.

Both being under the Rose Group, the two often met at management meetings and were quite familiar with each other.

Good morning, Your Excellency Elson.

Summers approached the window, his tone gentle yet tinged with doubt:

What are you doing here?

He asked curiously:
"Didn't the financier ask you to write a few books?"

"That kind of hastily made-up stuff would have been finished a long time ago."

Andorra smiled, shrugged, and then extended an invitation:
"It's a rare opportunity to meet. Are you free later? It's been a long time since we last met. Let's chat."

"Of course, come to my office, I happen to have some good tea."

Summers nodded happily.

The two walked side by side toward the office, while Jiang Jianxin continued talking to her brother in the ward.

Around noon, Andorra enthusiastically suggested having lunch together and took the initiative to host the four people present.

Given the extravagance of the gambling tycoon's son, the chosen dining venue was naturally extraordinary.

This place is nominally a restaurant, but it is actually a quiet and spacious inner lake.

The four boarded a small cruise ship docked at the shore, and as the ship slowly sailed into the center of the lake, a flowing feast began.

On the deck, melodious music filled the air, dancers swayed gracefully, and exquisite meals were presented one after another, accompanied by the lake view outside the window and the live opera performance. The food was delicious and also a feast for the eyes.

Jiang Jianxin, who invested all his assets in Divine Grace Coupons, was the poorest person on the entire ship.

Thanks to Andorra's generosity, she enjoyed a hearty meal and stood on the boat gazing at the vast lake.

But then they saw a small cruise ship in the distance, with a familiar girl standing on it.

She was wearing a red dress today, surrounded by her sisters, laughing and holding a fan. When she saw Jiang Jianxin, she shouted loudly across the lake:

Good morning, Miss Aman!

Upon hearing this title, Andor, a seasoned conman, immediately understood. He coughed, a smile involuntarily creeping onto his lips, and subtly nudged Jiang Jianxin's arm, asking:

"Oh, Miss Aman, would you like to go see some friends?"

Jiang Jianxin elbowed him without hesitation and coldly replied:

"Thank you for your help, Mr. Elson."

The two cruise ships docked together. Sylvia left her group of sisters and happily walked over to greet Jiang Jianxin:

"Is Miss Aman also dining here?"

"Yes, my friend treated me."

Jiang Jianxin replied.

Sylvia didn't know her friend, but she recognized Summers. She lifted her skirt and curtsied, saying:
"Good morning, Master Summers!"

Good morning, Miss Sylvia.

Summers also bowed in greeting.

Then Sylvia started chatting away with Jiang Jianxin. At first, she talked about lighthearted and interesting things, and Jiang Jianxin listened quietly until her voice slowed down and a hint of melancholy crept into her tone.

"Recently... everyone has been saying that a new era of divine grace is about to begin."

Sylvia's voice lowered:
"Many families are scrambling to buy Divine Grace Coupons; the price has skyrocketed..."

“We didn’t stock up enough before, and now we want to buy more, but we just can’t afford it.”

She sighed softly:
"The elders all say that this is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, and if we don't buy now, it will only get more expensive later. I really... don't know what to do."

Sylvia hesitated, never expecting that the Divine Grace Coupon would suddenly skyrocket to such an astronomical price.

A single sheet of paper sold for 1000 million gold coins, a value equivalent to the income of a craftsman who would not eat or drink for 80 years.

However, judging from the current trend, the price is going to rise further. The surrounding families are frantically hoarding coupons, and the family elders are also urging her to buy them.

She felt herself being swept up in the surging crowd, everyone running in the same direction, while she stood frozen in the center of the torrent, unable to move.

A voice inside my heart is screaming:
Buy! We absolutely have to buy! If we don't buy now, we'll never have another chance!

However, at the same time, another faint but clear question lingered in my mind:
Is a piece of paper really worth this price?

Jiang Jianxin saw through the fog in her eyes.

This is a carefully orchestrated smokescreen by the top conglomerates, immersing everyone in a dream, causing them to blindly follow the crowd amidst information gaps. Those who don't run are criticized, while those who are far ahead are praised. Everyone is going crazy, and wave after wave of excitement pushes the price of Divine Grace Coupons to record highs.

At that moment, intuition, like cold ink, silently surfaced in her consciousness:

There will be no "later." Barring unforeseen circumstances, prices will likely reach their peak this afternoon.

[When the sun rises tomorrow, the Divine Grace Coupon will revert to its original price as a single sheet of colored paper.]

[Probably ten for one yuan.]

Upon reading these lines, a sudden chill ran down Jiang Jianxin's spine.

Disjointed information, inflammatory propaganda, fraudsters masquerading as experts, and a deluge of misleading sales pitches...

Rumors, public opinion, frenzied crowds, and distorted prices...

This is nothing more than a capitalist carnival manipulated by financiers, and the Divine Grace Coupon is merely the most conspicuous piece on the chessboard.

Now, the game is coming to an end, and this year-end drama is about to reach its brutal climax.

Just then, Jiang Jianxin suddenly reached out and tightly grabbed the wrist of the girl in the red dress in front of him.

Sylvia looked up in surprise, meeting her solemn eyes.

"Don't buy any more."

Jiang Jianxin's voice was very low:

"Sell all the coupons you have before sunset today."

"Are you... insane?"

Sylvia shook her head in disbelief:
Why throw it all away?

Jiang Jianxin pursed his lips and said:
“I can’t explain it, but if you believe me, just do it.”

A breeze swept across the lake, causing the cruise ship to rock slightly.

Sylvia stood still, motionless.

The elder's admonition and the man's low but firm warning pulled at her heart, creating two opposing forces that trapped her in a deeper state of confusion.

Jiang Jianxin returned to the dining table, and amidst the singing and dancing scene before him, he remembered the large number of Divine Grace Coupons he had hoarded.

Her moment of sudden wealth is just around the corner.

Wishing all my darlings a prosperous new year, with soaring careers and incredible wealth! Happy Lunar New Year's Eve!
