Chapter 1387: Still the Same Old Trick

Shi Lei was of course very dissatisfied with this.

In the past, the black card rules could always be understood at first glance, but they had never been so unclear as this time.

I can understand every word, but I don't know what the words combined together mean.

Therefore, Shi Lei said: "Please explain to me first, what is the basic profit point. There are too many new terms in this black card rule, and this is what you should explain clearly in advance."

Scepter did not hesitate and explained directly: "Basic profit point, as the name suggests, is the most basic profit that ordinary investment should achieve."

Shi Lei rolled his eyes and said: "Nonsense, can I still not understand the literal meaning? Since the amount of ordinary investment does not pursue profits, there will be no punishment for investment failure or success, why? Another basic profit point pops up?”

The voice of the scepter became a little mocking, and it said: "Who told you that ordinary investment does not pursue profits? In this world, any kind of investment must pursue profits. If you do not pursue profits, it is called consumption, not investment. "

"But there is no penalty for investment failure!"

"No punishment and no pursuit of profit are two different things."

Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, and soon understood that indeed, he had been nervous about the punishment of the black card, so he confused these two unrelated directions.

In Shi Lei's view, as long as there are no consequences of punishment, it means it doesn't matter, and indifferent, in Shi Lei's case, means not pursuing profits.

But this was not the original intention of the black card. It allowed Shi Lei to invest, but he still wanted to pursue profits after all.

This is a role difference.

Scepter became sincere: "There is no punishment, it is only for you, fifth-level president, you will not suffer any punishment for investment failure. But the pursuit of profit is the foundation of every investment. On this point, noble as I hope You must remember in the future not to take this for granted. The basic profit point is the most basic requirement of the supreme black card for ordinary investment. Only the part that exceeds the basic profit point can bring you immediate benefits. "

"Benefits? What benefits?" Shi Lei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked immediately.

Scepter sighed and said: "When you create enough profits for the supreme black card, you will know what benefits you will get."

Shi Lei's eyes were about to roll out of his head. It was another task with no idea what the benefits were.

Yes, since Shi Lei knew that the ordinary investment quota must be used for ordinary investment and is not dispensable like other consumption components, he has regarded the 5% of the ordinary investment quota as a task. .

However, the tasks issued by the black card do not seem to cause any punishment.

There is no penalty for quests to find art, and there is no penalty for quests to make ordinary investments. But this does not prevent it from being a mission at all.

"What if you can't reach it?"

"If it fails to reach it, it will result in negative profits below the basic profit point. Of course, negative profits will not bring any penalties. However, if the profits generated by your ordinary investment cannot reach the critical point, you will never You won’t get the rewards from the supreme black card.”

Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders and said: "Okay, let's continue. With profit, no matter whether it reaches the basic profit point or not, it is still a profit. But why is it measured as a loss in the black card rules?"

The scepter was a little impatient, as if it thought Shi Lei was stupid.

"Stupid groundhog, is your brain made of paste? Didn't I just tell you clearly? As long as the basic profit point cannot be reached, it will be recorded as a negative profit for you. For this transaction In terms of investment, this is of course profitable. But for you, the fifth-level president, it is a loss."

Shi Lei scratched his head. This was understandable. It was still a character issue. The investment generated profits, but the profits did not reach the expected target, and instead caused deductions for Shi Lei. So for Shi Lei, this was equivalent to a loss.

"So, the profit pool is a reward system with a maximum amount? As long as the profit I get, well, I mean the part that exceeds the basic profit point, is included in the profit pool, and then once it exceeds the maximum amount of the profit pool, Then, will I get a chance to be rewarded?"

"Your IQ is finally back online. Congratulations, your answer is correct. However, there are no extra points."

“So what’s the maximum amount for this profit pool?”

"This is not something you should know. You just need to earn as much profit as possible. Once the profits you earn exceed the maximum capacity of the profit pool, the supreme black card will naturally issue rewards to you. "

Shi Lei cursed secretly in his heart and tried this trick again.

In the past two years, Shi Lei has actually read a lot of fantasy-themed money-burning novels. However, most of the money-burning novels clarify the rules of money-burning from the beginning. Only the black card he obtained has changed from the beginning. The rules were concealed from the beginning, which made Shi Lei very passive and he had to make careful calculations at every step.

However, it is obvious that this is indeed of great benefit to Shi Lei's growth. Is it possible to be wiped out at any time because you don't understand the rules?

This is equivalent to giving Shi Lei a handful of sweet dates and lighting a fire behind him, forcing him to run forward desperately, and he must stop from time to time to see how far the fire has burned. It is best to understand how far the fire will eventually burn through the details of running, so that you can control your running speed and not try your best at the beginning and run too fast in the end.

It seems that ordinary investment really can't be done randomly. Wanting to use the simplest and most direct investment method such as stock speculation is very safe, but it is not a method worth encouraging.

Although I don't know the maximum limit of the profit pool, Shi Lei can definitely guess that it will not be an amount of 10% or 20%, and the minimum must be equivalent to the current amount. After all, this profit pool will be accumulated.

Even Shi Lei doubts that this profit pool must reach the level of earning back all the money Shi Lei got from the black card before a reward can be obtained.

Only in this way can the black card guarantee a steady flow of funds. The money it gives to Shi Lei and other cardholders is never blown by the wind, let alone directly copied or printed. Shi Lei had guessed this a long time ago, and confirmed it after obtaining the Freedom Fund.

In addition to Shi Lei, the black card has a whole set of ways to make money.

This actually makes Shi Lei feel relieved. After all, this money is not black money, nor is it made out of thin air, but a part of the original economic system of this world.

"So, my profit this time reached 5.01 million, that is to say, in addition to the 5 million to maintain the basic profit point, my profit pool will increase by 10,000 yuan?"

"Yes. However, as a noble person, I have to remind you that this profit is too little, and it is far from the requirements of the profit pool."

Shi Lei thought nonsense, how could I not know this? Black Card has never been a good thing, it is impossible for it to set the amount of the profit pool very low.

"At least, the test of this quota cycle did not make me generate negative profits in the profit pool." Shi Lei exhaled lightly, thinking that it was really a bit risky, and he didn't know what this negative profit meant.

"If I don't reach the basic profit point in the next quota cycle, what will be the consequences?"
