Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!

It’s been a month since the semester started, and Gu Xiaoqing’s academic life has mostly been at a normal stage. Her roommates are all easy to get along with, except for Guo Donghua, who can’t stand Gu Xiaoqing, no matter what she’s like.

This has nothing to do with their backgrounds.

It simply has to do with the fate between people.

Of course, Gu Xiaoqing doesn’t know that Guo Donghua is actually just jealous. He can’t accept someone he once looked down upon always surpassing him in various aspects.

During her free time, Gu Xiaoqing starts exploring around the city. She knows in her heart that now is the time when Shanghai is full of business opportunities, and real estate prices are the cheapest at seven or eight hundred yuan.

Compared to later times, when the prices soar to tens of thousands, these prices are really like cabbage.

The main thing is, Gu Xiaoqing wants to do something in Shanghai.

She is studying finance, to prepare for the stock market in the future.

After all, the stock market already exists, but it’s not yet mature.

The first wave of the stock market financial tide has ended, but since Gu Xiaoqing is studying in this field, she feels she should make some achievements in it.

Gu Xiaoqing is not planning to do anything major, but there’s still a lot she needs to do.

At least she wants to have her own independent business, different from her family’s chain enterprise.

Choosing finance may be related to her interest in the financial news of the market in the future.

She wants to seize the best opportunities.

Gu Xiaoqing is very talented in finance. Let’s say she is a math genius, sensitive to numbers and a bit of a golden finger, she believes she can at least make a successful career.

Gu Xiaoqing currently has almost two million in savings. These are the dividends from Gu Family Spicy Hot Pot over the past three years, amounting to this much in her hands.

Gu Xiaoqing can be considered part of the wealthy.

Of course, no one knows this.

Recently, Gu Xiaoqing visited the computer city and bought herself a laptop.

In the 1990s, computers were not popular products; they were bulky, with outdated systems that left her speechless.

Currently, using the internet is mostly unrealistic and incredibly expensive.

The signal is also hard to use.

Gu Xiaoqing bought it only to do simple graphic work and office software applications.

If she wants to see real-time stock market charts, she still has to go to the stock exchange.

Fortunately, this is Shanghai, a cradle and growth base for China’s stock exchanges, both in the past and future.

So there’s no worry about that.

Sometimes, Gu Xiaoqing herself can’t figure out what she really wants. Her previous life, apart from being miserable, seems to have left nothing.

In this renewed life, apart from getting her family out of suffering, it seems she has no big ambitions, never thought of sitting on substantial wealth, or having a specific type of family.

Life has always been plain and accepting of circumstances, seemingly uneventful, without an exciting life.

It doesn’t seem like the life of an eighteen-year-old, more like that of a fifty-eight-year-old. Sometimes, Gu Xiaoqing even feels she’s too dull and boring.

Never had blood-pumping moments, never had the chance to take risks, it seems she’s quietly holding onto her corner of the world.

But is that the purpose of her second chance at life?

The heavens have given her such a life, and she’s squandering it silently; doesn’t she feel regret?

So recently, Gu Xiaoqing has been pondering this.

After countless sleepless nights, Gu Xiaoqing tells herself she’s not willing to just continue like this; she wants a different life.

Of course, it’s not the world-shocking feats you might think.

Gu Xiaoqing sets a life goal of wealth that can support her with a slightly extravagant lifestyle and the freedom to travel the world to enrich her life.

Ideally, she’ll find a gentle and considerate partner, have a baby, and have a stable and happy family. This would be the most perfect ideal.

Haha, isn’t this quite modest?

Perhaps someone would say how could Gu Xiaoqing have such little ambition.

This can only be explained by the tragic and helpless experiences she had in the previous life. Compared to that, having these things is already very happy for Gu Xiaoqing, like a beggar on the verge of starving suddenly getting a rich meal, thinking of nothing but to eat well and be satisfied, nothing else really matters.

Gu Xiaoqing did think about whether to start a big business, turning her family’s chain enterprise into a classic example.

Making the Gu Family a well-known fortune on the wealth list, and trying the flashy life of the second generation rich.

Living in a mansion, eating abalones and sea cucumbers, driving luxury cars, wearing top-brand clothes, and having a life where one could crush others with money.

But that’s not what Gu Xiaoqing wants, nor is it her dream.

An honest woman all her life, suddenly asked to become a top tycoon, Gu Xiaoqing finds it absurd.

If her golden finger were that powerful, maybe she’d be ranked first on the fortune list.

But her golden finger can’t bring out much.

To become a rich person, especially turning a family into a wealthy family, can’t be done with some secret tricks.

Gu Xiaoqing doesn’t have that ambition or idea.

This time choosing finance is because Gu Xiaoqing still remembers those crazy times of the stock market, because she worked for many people and knew how differently bosses manage money. Many went crazy over stocks, while others jumped because of it.

This is something Gu Xiaoqing can remember.

Her choice of this major also includes this intention. These are some historical memories she remembers and can still use.

What’s left is real estate, buying some properties. Gu Xiaoqing remembers very clearly that future Shanghai prices will be seventy to eighty thousand per square meter, with luxury houses even more expensive.

At least she will have no problem with the small life she wants in the future.

Recently Gu Xiaoqing has been looking for suitable houses in areas near the campus. If the old houses are demolished in the future, they will also be valuable.

Moreover, future areas near subway stations and new city centers will be prime locations, although they are not right now.

In this period of the 1990s, there hasn’t been much movement, probably the golden era for Gu Xiaoqing. (To be continued.
