“But whether I do save the city or not tomorrow will depend on how things end up going.”
Anna fell into deep thought. “You mean that if the trend continues and the market crashes, then you
won’t help. But if this is caused by someone and they’re secretly trying to increase the severity of this
economic crisis, you’ll help?”
Jasper smiled. “Smart! There’s no way I’d be able to fight the trend of the dot-com bubble popping no
matter how rich I become, so the only way to earn money now is to go with the flow. Fighting against
the trend is only something idiots would do.
“But if someone from the outside is putting their capital in? That means someone’s trying to crush
Harbor City’s economy and that’s a man-made disaster, not a natural one! Then I have to act!
“Not to mention that the government of Harbor City and the city’s rich families will act even if I don’t do
anything. By then, I’ll still just go with the flow!”
As they spoke, the two arrived at Victoria Harbor.
Anna pulled the car to a stop, and the two walked on the pedestrian bridge side by side like many
ordinary couples here.
Harbor City was overpopulated, so most roads were rather crowded. As such, pedestrian bridges had
been integrated into one of Harbor City’s unique scenery.
It was getting late, but an international metropolis like Harbor City hardly ever grew deserted.
People came and went on the pedestrian bridge, most of them talking about what had happened on the
stock markets today. People strode quickly around them with sullen expressions on their faces.
As Jasper and Anna chatted and walked around Victoria Harbor with smiles on their faces, Mitch and
Zane were currently joyfully clinking glasses at an open bar.
“Today sure was great, Young Master Langdon! Had you not shown me the way to earn money and
told me to take the bearish stand for Harbor Stocks, I wouldn’t have been able to earn tens of millions
today!” Zane thanked Mitch elatedly.
Mitch merely smiled softly at Zane’s praise. “It’s nothing. Keep working for me and I can promise you’ll
be earning big bucks in the future. This is only the beginning.”
“Looking at those aggrieved expressions those people wore just makes me want to laugh! What do
they know about stocks? They had it coming for losing!”
Zane leaned against the chair comfortably and enjoyed the sea breeze. “How much did you earn today,
Young Master Langdon?”
Mitch’s lips quirked upward as he lifted two fingers.
“200 million?!” Zane exclaimed.
Mitch burst out in laughter. “Look at you, so unpromising. It’s just 200 million, that’s nothing. I’m one of
Harbor City’s well-known investing masters, after all. I could tell that something was up when I looked
at the market’s big picture. So I prepared my funds and chose to take the bearish stand before it was
too late. There’s only more money to be made from now on.”
Zane replied in admiration, “You sure are good at this, Young Master Langdon…” Halfway through his
praise, Zane’s eyes suddenly widened. Looking over in the other direction, he roared, “What the hell!
Look at those two, Young Master Langdon. It’s Jasper, that country bumpkin, and Anna?”
Hearing Zane, Mitch immediately snapped his head over to see a couple walking by the harbor not too
far away, approaching their direction.
While the lighting around them was dim, Mitch could easily tell the two’s identities!
“Motherf*cker! It really is that country bumpkin and Anna!”
Mitch huffed enviously.
He had been chasing after Anna for quite a few years already. Yet every time she saw him, she would
have a dark expression on her face. How could she possibly take strolls with him?!
He thought about himself, how he was still a member of one of the four major rich families in Harbor
City with equal footing as the Law family. However, Annie had never even looked his way!
Meanwhile, Jasper, a country bumpkin from Mainland, was deeply favored by her…
Mitch scoffed and stood up when he saw Jasper, that new distaste adding to his old resentment.
“Come on, let’s go talk.”
Jasper was chatting and laughing with Anna when a sharp voice sounded not too far away.
“Hey, isn’t this a Mainland cockroach?”
