Indeed, smaller investments are not accepted; we do not take investments from petty businesses!
Upon hearing such an interest rate, the entire merchant community of Yuezhou City went into collective frenzy, or madness, or became demonically obsessed.
Everyone knew that the source of wealth of Chu Chu was highly mysterious, but the money came extremely quickly. For years, his credit has always ranked first in Yuezhou – this is, in fact, the absolute truth. His word carries weight and is always fulfilled.
What is there to doubt?
What’s even more reassuring is that when some tycoons proposed to make large investments of one or two billion, Chu Chu rejected them outright.
“We are all good friends who support each other. Where there is investment, there will be returns. I seek not personal gain but rather a collective benefit for all. This is for our camaraderie and not for the profit of one or two individuals.”
Naturally, such a disposition and actions made people even more touched.
A multitude of merchants were scrambling to make Chu Chu’s acquaintance; even those whose total assets were only a few hundred thousand would rather borrow money to meet the minimum investment threshold of one million.
Those with close to ten million naturally tried every means to sell their properties and exhaust their resources in order to raise the full ten million.

Even more incredibly, many extremely wealthy merchants divided their wealth into more than ten parts. They had their daughters, daughters-in-law, sons-in-law, wives, and concubines all invest ten million each on paper.
The rule was that each family name was allowed to invest only ten million. As long as those share certificates were in their possession, they were assured of safety. Chu Chu only recognized share certificates, not individuals. He didn’t accept the possibility of mischief or absconding with the funds.
One million is turned into six million, three hundred million becomes one billion eight hundred million!
Within a month, their entire fortune could multiply several times over. This money was simply for picking up, making money faster than robbery!
Due to such psychology, many clients who were examined and questioned by Chu Chu stared with suspicious eyes, asking, “Don’t I recognize you? Are you using a pseudonym to invest?”
The person involved would promptly offer bribery, sweet-talk and explain, “I am no longer associated with so-and-so. I am now independent…”
Many times, Chu Chu refused to accept, breaking standard business practices.
There were countless instances of immediate kneeling and pleading, none were one-off, they happened all the time…
Consequently, a few days earlier, the people of Yuezhou really saw a rare sight: many rich people kneeling before Chu Chu crying and pleading for him to take all their assets…
This was money ordinary people could only dream about, and yet they knelt and asked Chu Chu to accept it, and Chu Chu was visibly annoyed, very much like he was being wronged…
This was truly a bizarre spectacle!
All this money given away, and the recipient was unwilling.
What was this about?
After Chu Chu had done a remarkable job of amassing wealth, he decided it was finally nearly enough and openly left the city…
Of course, he was off to engage in the same activities that made him rich years ago. Of course, he had to leave the city to do so!
All city merchants sent him off with joyful faces, dreaming of the future.
A month later, they would possess enormous wealth. What did it matter if they had to humor Chu Chu, be extremely careful or even kneel and plead? Having securely gathered the money lay at the heart of the matter, everything else was unimportant and utterly insignificant!
I still remember that day when Chu Chu left the city. His procession nearly blocked the city gate, and the crowd sending him off extended to the towns surrounding the city…
“I will be gone for at least half a month, or approximately twenty days at most; but when I return, I will have to take stock of gains and losses, and calculate the total amount. But I guarantee that no one will lose a penny. This is a promise from me, Chu Chu! My friends, the longer you wait for something, the sweeter it is when it arrives. You would not mind waiting a few more days, would you? Hahaha…”
Chu Chu, a rotund figure with a radiant face, appeared to be joking with the merchants.
Everyone laughed together: “Yes, yes, just a few more days, don’t let us become too anxious…”
“Yes, these days have been too difficult to bear…”
“Please have a safe trip, Brother Chu.”
Chu Chu laughed, “I sincerely thank you all for your trust. But aren’t you afraid I might run away with the money? A few days could mean a few days, a few years, or even a few decades. It’s just a matter of a few days versus quite a few days…Such a large amount of money is indeed tempting!”
“If Brother Chu can do such a thing, I, Haihun Shan, would accept it! Hahaha…”
“Indeed, indeed, if Brother Chu ran off with the money, I, Feng Erliaot, would also accept it. That bit of pocket change, consider it as travel expenses for Brother Chu, hahaha…”
“That’s right, we should be good to each other and get rich together. If we can’t even show this little bit of trust, how can we achieve great things! I, Feng Mul, would not blame Brother Chu even if I were to lose everything! Hahaha…”
“Well said, a few days are a few days, a few years or a few decades can also be considered a few days, it’s just a matter of a few days versus quite a few days. So what of it? We can afford to wait!”
“Indeed, indeed…”
“I, Zhu Shuijing, absolutely trust Brother Chu! I will follow Brother Chu all my life to enjoy good food and drink! Hahaha…”
“Farewell, everyone!”
“Safe travels, Brother Chu!”
All the significant merchants in Yuezhou City bowed in unison to see him off. Everyone was full of ambition. When they looked at the petty households that couldn’t even afford to invest, they felt superior.
