Life at the Top

Chapter 202

With a woosh, the Hansel Index fell to 7,802 points. The short-selling party was vigorously attacking the defense line of 7,800 points.

At this moment, no matter the heads of the four rich families at the scene, the higher-ups who were following the changes of the stock market in the government of Harbor City, or the ordinary investors at home and at the exchange watching the market, a lot of them were curious. Why was Jasper not doing anything?

If the Hansel Index fell and broke 7,800 points by the short-selling party, it would be too late to do anything when everything tumbled down vigorously.

“Make an opening!”

Under everyone’s anticipating gazes, Jasper finally said something.

Everyone shifted their gazes over to him.

Jake chuckled coldly and looked at Jasper. He was waiting for him to make a decision.

“Make an opening at 7,800 points. Buy all of the short-selling orders in the list that’s under 100 million.”

After Zack heard that, he turned around to yell at the stock traders under him, “Did you guys hear that? Do it according to Mr. Laine’s orders!”

The stock traders had been suppressing themselves since the beginning. After they got the order, they immediately started firing away on their keyboards frantically.

In the next second, all of the short-selling orders under 100 million in Harbor Stocks were swept clean by Jasper.

The other party sold their orders and Jasper would buy them. With one in and one out, he managed to stabilize the number of transactions.

On the other hand, the Hansel Index was forcibly stopped at 7,801 points, unable to budge.

The stock price of another listed company of Spencer’s that was being attacked seemed stable now. This allowed Spencer to let out a sigh of relief.

He was feeling miserable. He did not know why the other party would target him.

At this moment, they could hear Jake’s cold laugh floating over.

“You idiot. The orders below 100 million are all just useless troops and minor characters. The true pressure comes from the main force of the other party. You’re not attacking the main force and instead, you’re attacking these useless troops. I’d be insulting a pig if I say you’re as stupid as a pig!” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

…

At this moment inside the secluded villa.

Rogers was staring at the market.

“Oh? He’s finally doing something because he can’t bear this anymore, huh?”

Rogers said with a scoff after he saw the orders under 100 million being cleared out in the market.

“What should we do next?” one of his subordinates asked.

Rogers shrugged and poured himself a glass of red wine. He said, “Our opponent is just observing our tactics. Now, he has cleared out the tiny investors who wanted to make some money while hopping onto the trend. Is he trying to fight with us on 7,800 points?

“We’ll continue to wait for it to drop and short sell. Open more small orders under 100 million. If he wants to clean up the battlefield, then I’ll just create more messes for him.

“What an interesting young man from Mainland. Your calmness surprises me, but…

“Can you still find where my main force is?”

…

“I can almost tell the composition of the main force from the seller, but now, there are a lot of vermins trying to use this opportunity to make some money while Harbor Stocks is plummeting. These vermins will obscure our vision, so if we want to find the main force that’s short-selling, we have to clear the battlefield,” Jasper said.

Then, more than ten transactions from the seller that were under 100 billion dominated the digital screen all of a sudden.

Jake chortled. “Are you dumbfounded? Do you think you’re the only one who knows how to make something unnecessarily complicated? You’re so great at talking big, so find it for me now. Where’s the main force hiding among these dozens of orders? Hmm?”

“These are just confusions created by the main force. Why should I find them?” Jasper said insipidly while ordering.

“Make openings. Buy and clear out all of the short-selling transactions on the market. I want them to be unable to create more confusion!

“Then, make more openings, list out, and buy in the order of ten billion. Our target point on the Hansel Index is 7,850 points!”
