Chapter 234 Looking for Jerkes

The quarrel behind him soon disappeared. It was not that the two of them stopped quarreling, but that one of them stood up and left angrily.

Yang Jing shook his head slightly, took out his mobile phone and began to query related information about Bitcoin. As a result, he found that just when he traveled to 1980, Bitcoin had soared to a price of nearly 20,000 US dollars per coin.

This price really made Yang Jing a little stunned.

When he received the holy ring, the price of Bitcoin had already exceeded 5,000 US dollars per piece. At that time, Yang Jing had already regretted it. However, after the holy ring, Yang Jing focused most of his thoughts on this magical ring and gradually forgot about Bitcoin.

Now that he saw this price, the thought that flashed through his mind just now became even stronger.

Although Bitcoin suddenly plummeted when it reached its highest point, it fell from a price of nearly 20,000 US dollars per coin in two or three days to a minimum of 10,000 US dollars per coin, but it seems to be rebounding again in the past two days. Now that it is about to reach a price of 16,000, Yang Jing is really a little moved.

Through querying information, Yang Jing learned that the programmer Han Yez, seven years ago, worked as a programmer in an IT company in Jacksonville. As for the person who bought Han Yez's 10,000 Bitcoins on the forum, he was a 19-year-old man named Jerks.

Although this Jerks is young, he began to pay attention to this technology after the birth of Bitcoin in 2009 and became a member of major geek forums. In fact, he did not know Hanyez, who bought pizza coupons, but they always went in and out of the same chat room and were quite familiar with each other's IDs at that time. So when Hanyez proposed to exchange Bitcoin for pizza coupons on the forum, Jerks decisively took over the deal.

However, the 10,000 Bitcoins in his hands were not left behind. According to himself, he kept these Bitcoins until 2016. When Bitcoin rose to $400 per coin, he sold the Bitcoins in his hands, and the returns were still good.

"So, what if I ran to Jacksonville now, and then traveled to 2011, found Jerks, who was working in a pizza restaurant, and then spent a little more money to collect the ten thousand bitcoins in his hand?" Yang Jing thought, touching his nose, and he didn't even have the intention to eat the steak in front of him.

"Well, if you show cash, you should be fine? Bitcoin experienced a big roller coaster market in 2011. At the beginning of that year, Bitcoin was only priced at $0.3 per coin, but on June 8, it hit a high of $31.5, and achieved a 105-fold increase in less than half a year. Then in less than a month, Bitcoin plummeted to $11, and in less than a month, it fell to $7.8, and then continued to fall back to $4.77. That is to say, in 90 days, Bitcoin plummeted by 85%!"

"If I go through it now, it just happened to catch up with Bitcoin's lowest price at the end of 2011. Although the price of less than five dollars is very cheap, it is more than a hundred times higher than the price that Jerks acquired at that time. I'm not afraid that that guy will not be moved. If it really doesn't work, at worst we can increase the acquisition price a little more!"

"Well, there is also the gentleman programmer. Although this guy sold 10,000 bitcoins at one time, he himself said that he had been mining for the next few years. Until 2014, the gentleman programmer dug up more than 80,000 bitcoins, but he asked this guy to sell them. So what if he bought some from him?"

The more I thought about it, Yang Jing felt that the better this matter was. Obviously, going back to the acquisition of Bitcoin in 2011 and then coming back to sell it for money is obviously a very good "short, flat and fast" project. It takes only three or four days to go back and forth, but the profit can reach thousands of times!

Thinking of this, Yang Jing and his wife hurriedly stuffed the remaining food into their mouths, then put down a Simpson Grant (fifty dollar cash) on the table, and hurriedly left the restaurant.

"Holy Ring, do you say that if I traveled to 2011 to acquire Bitcoin and then came back to sell it, will it touch the paradox of time and space?" Yang Jing asked the paradox of time and space in his heart while walking. Although this is an excellent "short, flat and fast" project, Yang Jing also needs to pay attention to whether he will set out on the paradox of time and space. After all, this transaction requires a face-to-face transaction with others.

"It has some impact, but if you insist on doing it, although it will trigger a small-scale space-time paradox, as long as you are willing to consume a certain amount of energy, it will be fine for your safety." The Holy Ring was silent for a while before giving a definite answer, which made Yang Jing very excited.

"However, besides Bitcoin transactions, it is best not to have more intersections with those two people, otherwise, it may trigger a larger paradox of time and space."

"Don't worry, I know it!" Yang Jing said excitedly in his heart.

Isn’t it just to consume a certain amount of energy? When we come back, we find an old oil well and we will soon replenish the consumed energy.

Of course, Yang Jing knew the Holy Rings of thoughts. Obviously, he still recognized Yang Jing's plan, so after saying those words, the Holy Rings fell into silence again.

Since the holy decrees have agreed, there is no reason why Yang Jing will not go.

After taking out the phone, Yang Jing called Lin Dan directly. After the call was connected there, Yang Jing could vaguely hear the cheers and various screams there. It was estimated that Lin Dan was taking his girlfriend to play in the amusement park at this time.

"What's the matter, Brother Yang?" Lin Dan asked loudly, which made Yang Jing unable to help but put the phone away from his ears.

"Lin Dan, we won't go out tomorrow. I have some private matters in the afternoon. It will take about two or three days. When will we set off, you'd better wait for my phone call."

Lin Dan obviously didn't expect Yang Jing to say that, but he just hesitated for a moment and agreed. It would be better if he didn't leave tomorrow, and he wanted to take a few more days off. Those FBIs have really made him difficult these days, but now it's completely fine.

Yesterday's press conference was very smooth. With Mr. Zhou and many news media present, the FBI had no choice but to do anything. As for the original owner, the people from the Gardner Museum of Art, they could only appraise the paintings. After identifying that these thirteen paintings are the thirteen paintings lost twenty-seven years ago, their work was completed. As for the issue of ownership, it has to be left to the lawyer to handle.

Yang Jing called Zhao Meng again and said. Zhao Meng was helpless about this elusive new major shareholder, because when Yang Jing called him, he had already arrived at the airport by taxi.

When Yang Jing arrived at Jacksonville, the largest city in Florida, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. When he entered the city by taxi from Jacksonville International Airport, twenty-one kilometers away, it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening.

It was obvious that it was impossible to take action tonight, so after Yang Jing found a hotel to stay in, he began to look for the "Dad John" pizza shop online.

"Dad John" Pizza Shop is a large-scale pizza chain with five stores in downtown Jacksonville. Yang Jing wants to figure out the locations of these five stores, and then search according to the location after crossing.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Yang Jing checked in, and then came to a dense flower bush opposite a 24-hour convenience store next to the hotel, and immediately activated the "restricted-level time and space shuttle" skill.

The reason I chose to activate the skills here is because Yang Jing fell in love with a perpetual calendar electronic watch at the door of this convenience store. This external electronic watch can not only display time, but also date.

Now the "restricted-level time and space shuttle" skill has not been upgraded yet, and it is impossible to perform fixed-point shuttle, so Yang Jing can only take his luck.

The time node that Yang Jing chose is a ten-year node, which means that if he launches a "restricted-level time and space shuttle", one-nineth chance will be to shuttle until 2011.

Unfortunately, Yang Jing seemed to have used up all his good luck. For the first time traveling, Yang Jing only traveled to this day last year. He immediately returned to the original time and space without hesitation, and then activated his skills. As a result, he activated seven time and space shuttles in a row, but he did not shuttle to the 2011 he wanted to go.

It is very energy-consuming to launch the "Limited-level Time and Space Shuttle". Although it takes less energy to shuttle to a ten-year node than to a forty-year node, it cannot resist his continuous activation of this skill.

Seeing that the energy of the natural treasure qi pool fell by one third, Yang Jing felt so painful! Finally, when Yang Jing gritted his teeth and launched the "restricted space shuttle" for the eighth time and space shuttle", he finally shuttled to December 26, 2011.

Fortunately, this flower bushes have been around for many years, and Yang Jing chose the time point in the early morning, and there were almost no people on the street. Otherwise, if Yang Jing traveled so continuously, if someone saw it, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

Yang Jing hid among the dense flowers, looked at the electronic clock in the convenience store opposite through the gaps in the flowers, and let out a long sigh. He muttered a few words of complaints, and then he came out from the other side of the flowers.

After looking around and seeing no one, Yang Jing slightly tidied up his clothes and walked along the street to the east.

It was a little dawn and there were many morning exercisers on the streets. Yang Jing finally stopped a taxi.

Unlike Los Angeles, there are basically no taxis on the streets of Los Angeles. It is more difficult to stop a taxi on the street than winning a lottery. You have to call to make an appointment. But Jacksonville is full of taxis, which is quite a scene on the streets of New York.

The taxi driver is a black man. It seems that in the United States, there are many black man who work as taxi drivers. He just stopped a car and the driver is a black man.

Like the legendary chatterbox, this black man is also a chatterbox. When talking about the mountains, the two taxi drivers in Yanjing were not just piled up. Even if Yang Jing ignored this guy, the guy was still chattering. In the end, Yang Jing got off the car to threaten it, which made the talkative black driver shut up.

As the largest city in Florida, Jacksonville is even bigger than Miami, which is not only reflected in the population, but also in the urban area.

The wide St. Johns River divides Jacksonville into two from the middle, and there are five bridges in the city that connect the city on the east and west sides of the river.

The "Dad John" pizza restaurant that Yang Jing checked was three on the west side of the river and two on the east side of the river. The place where Yang Jing traveled was located is in Hedong, so he had to take a bus to wander around Hedong first.

Although the black driver is a chatterbox, his professional qualities are quite good. When he heard that Yang Jing was looking for the "Dad John" pizza shop, he immediately patted his chest and said that he would ensure that the task was completed. Sure enough, the black driver pulled Yang Jing to wander around the city for a long time and found three pizza shops.

Yang Jing got off the car and asked about Jerks, but unfortunately, just like he traveled through time several times in the early morning, his luck was still not very good.

In desperation, Yang Jing had to head towards the east. After taking a bus through the Matthew Bridge, the longest cross-river bridge in Jacksonville, Yang Jing came to Arlington District. The fourth "Dad John" pizza restaurant he was looking for was located in this city.

Arlington District is not the city center, but a typical residential area, where most of the residents live.

The taxi was walking around and after more than ten minutes of crossing the bridge, it stopped in front of a pizza restaurant. The distinctive sign of the "Dad John" chain pizza restaurant was hung on the front of the pizza restaurant.

It was already bright at this time, and some people who were rushing to drive were driving, while others were having breakfast in this pizza restaurant.

Yang Jing pushed the door open and found a young man holding a takeaway box to go out. Yang Jing almost subconsciously pulled the guy, and then asked with a smile: "Sir, I want to ask you about someone. I wonder if there is a person named Jerks in the pizza restaurant you work for?"

The young man was a little unhappy when Yang Jing held him for no reason, but after hearing Yang Jing's words, he was immediately stunned.

"Sir, is there anything you have to do with me?"

Yang Jing was also stunned, "You are Jerks?"

The young man nodded, then looked at the takeaway box in his hand, and then said, "Sir, no matter what you have to ask me for, you must wait for me to deliver these takeaways first. Don't worry, soon, I will be back in at most twenty minutes."

Yang Jing nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you here. I really want to discuss with you because I'm looking for you."

Jerks smiled and waved his hand at Yang Jing, and ran out with the takeaway box. Yang Jing also walked out, paid more than 200 US dollars of fare and sent the black driver, and then sat in the pizza restaurant again.

I'm just looking for Jerks, he hasn't had breakfast yet...
