Shouyuan Trading App: Harvesting Money Worldwide

Inside the presidential suite at Genting International Hotel.

The sun shines brightly outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The aroma of seafood porridge and grilled bacon still lingered in the restaurant.

At the dining table.

Chen Fan picked up the bowl and drank the last mouthful of seafood porridge.

The warm and fragrant food made me feel much more comfortable.

He pulled out a napkin and wiped his mouth.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings)...

The lives of the wealthy are truly simple and unpretentious.

At this time before.

He's most likely taking the subway to work.

Either people step on your feet or you get so crowded that you question the meaning of life.

Where can you find such a leisurely and carefree life now?

Enjoying breakfast at a five-star hotel.

They were staying in the presidential suite.

He lay comfortably on the sofa, casually picked up his newly bought top-of-the-line iPhone, swiped the screen, and opened Weibo.

As soon as I entered the trending topics page, I saw an official announcement with a bright red "Explosive" sign.

Emergency Notice from Jianghai City Public Security Bureau Regarding Prevention and Resisting the Illegal Online Trading Software "Shouyuanbao"

"Um?"

Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, immediately becoming interested.

Without hesitation, I clicked on it.

The announcement was short and followed a typical official format.

But a sense of caution is evident between the lines.

Recently, an online application called "Shouyuanbao" has appeared in our city and has been spread through illegitimate channels.

This software involves unknown transactions. The police solemnly remind the public that life and property safety are paramount.

Currently, relevant departments have established a joint investigation team to investigate the source and operating mechanism of the software.

The public is urged not to believe rumors circulating online, and especially not to take any risks to avoid being scammed.

After reading it, Chen Fan couldn't help but smile.

A joint investigation team has been formed?

It seems this matter has attracted the attention of those above.

However, this official announcement...

In Chen Fan's eyes, however, a deep sense of helplessness was revealed.

Because although the entire announcement was classified as "illegal," it did not contain a single sentence stating that "the software content is entirely false."

It doesn't even have the most basic words "dispel rumors".

What does this mean?

This means that the official team tried it, but didn't figure it out.

Therefore, they dare not draw any conclusions rashly.

Chen Fan could understand this dry, rigid prevention and resistance, and the seasoned internet users, with their silly antics, could understand it too.

Open the comments section, and it's already completely in an uproar!

"Guys, this is important: the official statement hasn't refuted the rumor!"

"Yeah! Before, if it was fake, they'd just say 'It's a complete rumor, please don't believe or spread it.' Now they're just saying 'prevention and boycott'?"

"What does that mean? It means this thing is probably real!"

"Holy crap, it's confirmed!"

"Can lifespan really be bought and sold?!"

"Brothers in Jianghai City, how do I get there? I'm so anxious! Is it too late for me to buy a high-speed rail ticket to Jianghai tonight?"

"Forget about it, I'm a local, I don't have that software."

"Waaaaah, I got scammed out of 20 yuan buying an invitation code yesterday!"

"I need the key! I'll pay a hefty reward for it! I'll offer two thousand!"

"Two thousand? The post next door is already asking for five thousand!"

"I'll offer ten thousand! Face-to-face transaction only!"

"Stop shouting hundreds or thousands. I just came out of a live streamer with a million followers. The streamer immediately offered a reward of 100,000 for invitation codes."

"Really?"

"Ten thousand for an invitation code?"

"Are you crazy?"

"Dude, you thought you were buying an invitation code?"

"You're buying your life!"

"That's right, this thing is now a ticket to another world. If it were real, someone would buy it for 200,000!"

Looking at these comments, Chen Fan couldn't help but laugh.

One hundred thousand?

Two hundred thousand?

If it were a few days ago...

He might actually be tempted.

But now, I feel nothing at all.

Moreover, it's fine to talk about it online, but in reality, anyone who actually sells invitation codes would likely be investigated very quickly.

Making a fortune quietly and steadily is the right way!

Chen Fan logged out of Weibo and was about to check out Douyin.

But then!

Dili dili dili dili dili dili...

My phone suddenly vibrated.

The caller ID showed an unfamiliar number.

Place of origin: Jianghai City.

Chen Fan's eyes flickered slightly.

For some reason, he suddenly had a premonition.

Without hesitation, he pressed the answer button.

Hello.

Chen Fan's voice was calm and gentle.

On the other end of the phone came a somewhat gruff but deliberately low and very polite male voice: "Hello."

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Chen Fan?"

"It's me, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

"I am a police officer from Chengnan Police Station."

"My surname is Zhao, and my name is Zhao Shoucheng."

Upon hearing this name, Chen Fan's eyes flickered slightly.

Zhao Shoucheng?

He seemed to vaguely recognize the name.

He had previously opened the backstage area when he had nothing to do.

The other party quietly sold a year's worth of lifespan late at night and directly withdrew 880,000 yuan. The user 056 seems to be named Zhao Shoucheng.

Whether it's the same person or not, that remains to be seen.

Chen Fan had a vague guess in his mind, but his tone remained calm, even carrying a just-right hint of doubt:

"Officer Zhao?"

"Is there something you need?"

"I don't think I've done anything wrong, have I?"

A hearty laugh immediately came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Chen, you've misunderstood. It's nothing bad. We're just conducting a routine investigation and need to verify some information with you."

"It's about the software called 'Shouyuanbao'."

"Are you available now?"

Chen Fan leaned back in his chair, revealing an expression that said, "I knew it."

Previously at the hospital, in front of so many people, I gave Wang Jianguo an invitation code, which could only be for this reason.

After all, the higher authorities have started to pay attention to the Shouyuanbao (a type of ancient Chinese currency).

There's no way to hide this from the state apparatus.

Rather than trying to hide it and appear guilty, it's better to admit it openly. Chen Fan nodded and smiled, "Sure, go ahead."

Zhao Shoucheng pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke.

"According to our investigation, you provided an invitation code to a patient's family member named Wang Jianguo at the People's Hospital the day before yesterday?"

"This invitation code seems to be a link to download an application called 'Shouyuanbao'? Is that true?"

Chen Fan nodded noncommittally, "That is indeed true."
