Life at the Top

Chapter 191

To Jasper, he wanted to protect Harbor City’s economy even if it meant giving up the profits he already had in his hands.

What kind of mindset was this?

Even though they had made a lot of money these two days and Zack could get a hefty sum of money, he and his team were from Harbor City after all.

Zack would still feel a little uncomfortable when he watched the economy of his home being plundered and robbed by someone else. In addition to that, they were also sucking the blood of the citizens and taking away the results their economy had gained after so many years.

However, he was just someone holding onto a job. He did not have the ability, and his words would not amount to anything, so it would be impossible for him to do anything.

However, now, Jasper’s order felt like a cardiac stimulant to him.

‘Mr. Laine… is a hero!’ Zack murmured to himself in his heart.

Jasper’s expression was serious. His main issue was that someone else was digging this farmland that was Harbor City and he could not tolerate this!

This farmland would be able to bring him a lot of opportunities to make money in the future!

The measly profits that he was letting go now would be able to get him a wider space to grow in the future.

He would need to be farsighted if he wanted to do business. He would not have a future if he kept staring at those tiny profits in front of him.

Now, the Hansel Index had dropped to 8,000 points. Its limit would be this even if Jasper did not do anything. If it continued to lose another 1,000 points and reached 7,000, the Harbor City government would take strong action and those millionaires would also start to inject funds.

To Jasper, 90% of the money he could make was already in his pocket. As for the remaining 10%, it would be a worthy trade if it would be able to give Harbor City a rapidly developing economy in the next 20 years.

In Harbor Stocks Trading Center, everyone lost all of their hopes when they saw the two billion being shown on the screen.

To them, Harbor Stocks would continue to plummet this morning as they had yesterday. They would continue to bomb.

“Oh no, oh no! This is the same as the financial crisis three years ago! It’s exactly the same!”

An old stock investor wailed in front of the trading hall with tears in his eyes.

Everyone around him was silent, and they all had despair on their faces.

However, when despair was looming over everyone, a buy order of two billion appeared in the list of trading without any warning signs.

In the next second, a buying order and a selling order were hedging. The Hansel Index miraculously stabled at 7,813 points and did not drop anymore!

“What’s going on? Did someone eat the order of two billion?” someone yelled loudly.

This loud voice attracted everyone’s attention.

When they realized what they were seeing was not an illusion, someone yelled, “Did the four wealthy families do something?” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Maybe the government of Harbor City injected the emergency funds into the market?”

Among the commotion, inside Law Manor that was more than ten kilometers away.

“There are 15 stock traders and everyone is using their own accounts to display the order they bought with 100 million. These 15 orders will be the tool for us to protect the market and fight back.”

Jasper took a sip of the spring tea Anna handed him as he stared at the screen and ordered.

Inside the living room, all of the stock traders were so excited that their faces were red.

None of them would expect to be in the team of heroes saving Harbor Stocks one day.

Some things were more important than making money in one’s life.

Harbor City was their home, and they did not want to watch as their home got destroyed.

At this moment, everyone was working faster and with more excitement than when they were furiously making money.

In the next second, an order occupied a line of information. Then, 15 lines of information and 15 purchase orders appeared in the trading list of Harbor Stocks.

15 orders.

15 purchasing information.

All of them were worth 100 million.

They were displayed dazzlingly and evidently on the screen, occupying the buying list that had been empty for a day and a half.

The purchasing order of 1.5 billion was like a soundless and shapeless thing, but at that moment, it was a message that everyone in Harbor City could understand as it resounded in everyone’s hearts.

‘When you’re in despair and when you’re feeling helpless, someone is still protecting and saving the economy of Harbor City!’

At this moment, in another secluded villa on the other side of Harbor City, Bob furrowed his brows tightly.

“Someone’s causing trouble!”
