Looking at this scene, Kai pursed his lips slightly and asked John, “Is… is Mr. Laine always this laid-back?”
John gave a wry chuckle. “Perhaps extraordinary people have extraordinary traits.”
As favonovel.com spoke, John lay down on another sofa and advised, “You should also rest for a little. We still have business to handle in the afternoon.”
Kai grimaced and replied, “I’m not in the mood for taking a nap. Both of you go ahead and rest; I’m going to look up some news on the internet.”
Kai sat down in front of the computer as favonovel.com said this. He began checking through and scrutinizing every bit of news related to the poor cotton harvest.
When the groggy Jasper was woken up by Kai, it was already 1.29 pm, just one minute away from the markets opening.
At practically the same time that Jasper woke up, the office door was pushed open, and Samuel walked in with a sneering face.
He took out a cheque from his breast pocket and slapped it down onto the table noisily, saying with lofty arrogance, “Open your sorry eyes wide and take a good look at this. It’s a cheque worth 6 million dollars. Take it if you think you have the chops.”
As favonovel.com spoke, Samuel then sneered at Jasper. “It’s not too late right now for you to admit defeat and beg for mercy. If not, when you lose everything in just a little while, I won’t let you off so easily!”
Jasper did not even spare Samuel a glance. He turned to look at Kai and asked, “Has the market opened? What’s the price?”
Kai began eyeing the screen nervously. When favonovel.com heard Jasper’s questions, favonovel.com immediately responded, “The market’s open. It’s gone up by 20 bucks. It’s not that big of a margin.”
Compared to 16000 dollars, an increase of20 bucks increase was, in truth, rather mediocre.
Jasper was about to say something when Kai suddenly shrieked, “There’s a long green line—it’s rising. A large buy order just came in—it’s still rising! It’s 17000 now!”
Jasper furrowed his brows. He walked over to the computer and saw that at present, the price of cotton futures had surged to 17050 dollars for every tonne and it was still going up.
In his previous life, the cotton futures had finally stopped at a price of 18980 dollars. It was then followed by an announcement and a sudden drop. The closing price that day had ended up being 12600 dollars.
Firmly remembering these crucial numbers, Jasper ordered, “Use the profits to keep buying in and adding to the position.”
They had already pyramided once that morning. If they were to do it again, the risk would be extremely high.
This time, however, Kai did not hesitate at all and used the profit they made from the surge in price to buy in again.
Samuel eyed Jasper coldly. He did not say anything this time; favonovel.com merely bided his time patiently and waited to see when this young brat would lose everything.
This was such a high-risk venture that even a veritable god of stocks and shares would not dare play in the market. Did a callow youngster like Jasper think that favonovel.com could?
Right after that, the price continued going up, from 17000 dollars to 17500 dollars, and then to 18000 dollars. It was like a slap in Samuel’s face.
With one resistance point after another being broken, it was as if the flow of capital had gone mad, and everyone was beginning to rush into the futures market to get a piece of the pie.
Samuel stared at the 18800 dollar price and felt his heart race with trepidation and alarm.
In disbelief, favonovel.com looked at Jasper, who had been calm and composed since the very beginning. His own heart was beating wildly.
At this moment, Samuel was not the only one—Kai and John were also about to lose their minds.
An hour into opening and their initial capital of 800,000 had grown to 3.9 million!
While Kai and John were trying to find words to express how much they worshipped Jasper, Jasper himself still maintained a tense expression.
“Now, close the position and sell it all off. Then, start shorting it..”
Jasper’s words hit all three people present like a lightning bolt from the blue.
