”Are you really someone who became rich via stocks? I heard from my dad that you previously earned a ton from crude oil futures,” asked Anna.“I guess so.” Jasper thought back at his entire process of becoming a successful person. He shook his head and said with a smile, “Actually, I’m not paying much attention to the current stock market, unless I think it has a huge potential, or else, I’ll just carry out a few trades. There’s not much meaning to it.”“Previously, you said that there will be a huge change in the price of Harbor City’s stocks. Is it going to happen soon?!” Anna asked earnestly.Jasper nodded his head. Then, he saw the trading center that they were fast approaching. He said, “Indeed, it’s going to happen soon. It’s just that I wonder how many people are going to go bankrupt during this wave.”At the securities exchange center of Harbor City. Earlier when computers were not widely available, ordinary stock exchanges were done via phone calls to the professionals at

Henry said with a laugh, “Of course, he’s unfamiliar to you. He’s Jasper Laine, from Mainland. He’s the most splendid stock god I’ve ever seen.”“Stock god from Mainland?”Mitch’s tone was a playful one as if he heard someone claiming themselves to be the number one rich guy from the rural area.“Hey dude, people from Mainland know how to invest in stocks as well?” asked Mitch calmly.“There are, but very few,” Jasper answered calmly.“Hahaha…”Mitch burst into laughter on the spot.Then, he waved his hand in an elegant manner and said, “I’m sorry, I really can’t take it when listening to this dude’s comment.”In Mitch’s opinion, perhaps there might be people from Mainland who knew how to play with stocks and were smart enough to earn money, but how many people actually knew how to invest in stocks? The answer was rare among the rarest!“What’s so funny about it?” Jasper looked at Mitch calmly.Mitch shrugged his shoulder and said thoughtfully, “My friend, Harbor City’s stock

Indeed, at the next moment, Mitch spoke up.“Hey Mainlander, you’re calling me childish and even said I’m faking it?!”Mitch stared at Jasper with a dark gaze, his eyes gleaming with an icy cold layer.“You’re Jasper, right? Great, very good. I admire your courage. Since you say that I’m childish and faking it, then do you have the guts to bet with me?“Right now, take out 100 million in cash. In one day’s time, before afternoon approaches, we’ll see who has earned the most.”Mitch stared at Jasper and said coldly, “Mainlander, today, I’ll let you experience that there will always be others who are better than you!”After glancing at Anna, who was just beside, Mitch realized that not only did Anna not look like she had gotten spellbound by his performance, but she was also wearing an expression as if she was worried for Jasper. That made Mitch angrier.“Jasper, don’t play along with him.”Anna came to Jasper’s side. She was not willing to let Jasper agree to it after being prov

”Prize?”Mitch was stunned and could not help but burst into laughter as if he had been made to laugh by Jasper.“Hey poor guy, do you know who I am? You’re talking to me about a prize?“Alright then, you name it. What do you want to bet on?”“Very simple, the one who loses the match will crawl one round around the hall of the exchange center!” Jasper said coldly.As soon as Jasper said it, Henry, who was looking forward to seeing Jasper putting on a show, was surprised—let alone Mitch.To rich brats like them, pride was way more valuable than money.‘Jasper’s bet is like scraping off Mitch’s dignity and pressing it hard on the ground while rubbing on it.’It was the same principle applied as well. If Jasper lost the bet, then he could just give up mingling in Harbor City in the future.However, at that moment, regardless of what bet Jasper said, the Law siblings were not in any position to offer any comment.As for Mitch, he was glaring at Jasper as if he wanted to start off

As for Jasper, he could not own a trading team to deal with Harbor City’s stocks. Just when he was about to say something, Anna spoke up faintly, “Jasp, you may use the Law family’s team as you wish.”“Then I’ll take up that offer,” said Jasper with a smile.Anna nodded and then made a call. Soon, a small trading team consisting of three men immediately showed up in the VIP room.Mitch was almost at the brink of breaking down from jealousy when he saw the scene, the corners of his eyes twitching. He said coldly, “Anna, even this Mainlander has the right to use the Law family’s team?”“You already said the team belongs to the Law family, so what rights do you have to instruct me?” Anna counter-questioned.Mitch was speechless, but his hatred and jealousy against Jasper had grown stronger.Mitch said to Jasper while letting out a cold laugh, “In a moment, I shall see how you fall!”Jasper knew the few traders. It was the same trading team he previously met in Zachary’s study durin

”If you’re really not familiar with it, then please proceed to the main hall downstairs and simply catch hold of one of the janitors. They’ll be able to tell you to purchase internet stocks if you want to earn some money.”Mitch was sneering while looking at Jasper. His face was filled with a mocking and scornful look.“It’s one thing if you’re able to earn money without learning about stocks. However, your capability in choosing a trash stock is quite impressive.“Yes, this Densen Wintech is a company belonging to the almighty Langdon, but their achievement this year isn’t too good. They’ve been losing billions continuously and were nearly listed as junk stock. Everyone is desperately trying to avoid them, but you’re different from them. You’re not bothered and even rushing into them foolishly.”The more Mitch said, the more hilarious he found it. In the end, he just generously burst into loud laughter and said, “Are you regretting it? No problem, don’t say that I’m bullying you.

On Jasper’s side, Henry and Anna were not looking too good.Of course, they were rooting for Jasper, but reality gave them a feeling that perhaps Jasper had made the wrong choice.At that moment, Jasper suddenly got up and walked to the door.“What’s wrong, thinking of fleeing away?”Mitch laughed coldly as if he was looking down at Jasper from a high place, like a victor.“Who says he’s fleeing, f*cker!”Henry, with a dark expression, glared at Mitch. “We’re going for a meal. If you’re worried, do you want to tag along?”Mitch’s expression turned dark, and he said with a firm tone, “Henry Law, don’t you be too arrogant!”“Huh?”Henry, who was holding back the rage that had been coursing within him the entire morning, was looking for a channel to vent it out. Hearing those words made him let out a sinister laugh as he said to Mitch, “I’m an arrogant guy, so what are you going to do to me?”“Let’s go.” Anna glared at Henry, warning him not to cause any trouble and follow Jaspe

“Do… Do you have information from the inside?” Anna could not help asking. There would be no other explanation as to how Jasper had managed to grasp such perfect timing for himself on his first try otherwise. He had just purchased shares for Denson Wintech that very morning, and news of Denson Wintech’s prices rising in the stock market then surfaced that afternoon. Even an idiot knew that Denson Wintech’s shares would be up for grabs under such positive circumstances. If even the top management of Denson Wintech wanted to buy back their shares, did that not prove that they did not want others to earn this money? The shareholders would not have the audacity to purchase shares from investors if it were not for the immense benefits, which was the nail in the coffin. However, it was unlikely that anyone would sell their shares unless they were crazy. Anna would not have believed it had she not witnessed it with her own eyes. No such coincidence existed in real life. He
