Jasper, who was willing to lend him a hand during his most critical time, would never look at him again.
Taking a deep breath, all Kai could do now was to pray for the price to drop quickly.
However, things did not turn out as he wished. The price of the cotton futures continued to rise, slowly
but surely.
As though to deliberately provoke Kai and Jasper, Samuel had gotten someone to send in a few
luxurious meals at some point.
Samuel clicked his tongue and sighed as he sat on the sofa, eating caviar. “Ah, this is delicious, but it’s
a little expensive. You two could still afford to eat it before this, but after today, I’m not sure.”
Kai gritted his teeth and stared fixedly at Samuel. He hated that he was unable to pounce at Samuel
and beat him up.
Jasper, on the other hand, had been looking at the computer screen. He could not be distracted no
matter what Samuel did.
When it was 2:30 p.m., the business department of the authority website that Jasper had been paying
attention to finally published an information message.
[Half an hour ago, our country successfully signed a series of trade treaties with three neighboring
countries, which includes the bulk cotton trade. It is predicted that after obtaining this batch of imported
cotton, the future domestic cotton market will not suffer a major impact due to the lack of harvest.]
Kai almost leaped up with just a few words.
“Oh my God! This announcement!” Kai exclaimed, his voice cracking. His sudden yell surprised
Samuel so much that the caviar in the latter’s hand fell to the ground.
No longer caring about the caviar, Samuel got up from the sofa and hurried to the computer.
One should never look down on the extent of the capitalists’ interest in the news. When Samuel ran
over after the news was published, there was already a response in the capital in the futures market.
It fell!
It dipped off the edge of a cliff!
The price of cotton that had been steadily rising saw a reverse in the direction of its arrow and went into
a precipitous decline as though someone had stepped on it mid-air.
The price of cotton had collapsed rapidly in a short period of time. A straight, downward line formed on
the stock market chart.
Who knew just how many who planned to take advantage of the wave of the current market trend to
make a big profit were now crying in anguish after having their accounts emptied in a snap?
Countless individuals were going bankrupt with every single second.
At the same time, there were also a very small number of people like Jasper who were earning
abundantly with every single second.
Jasper noticed that although the trend of the cotton market was the same as that in his previous life this
time, the final price was not 18, 980 dollars. Instead, it had begun falling from 18,977 dollars.
Although the difference of only three dollars was innocuous, it was a good wake-up call for Jasper.
He could not be emboldened by his memories of his past life all the time. Many things had already
changed in this life.
The impact of these changes would become greater as he grew his wealth and influence.
The price of cotton fell below 14,000 dollars from 18,877 dollars in just half an hour.
It was as if Kai and the others were able to feel the devastation and cries of countless people across
the screen.
However, Kai had no other thoughts now. He could only look at Jasper as if he were a god.
“Mr. Laine, I’m thoroughly impressed. if anyone could foresee the future in this world, it would definitely
be you,” Kai murmured.
Jasper chuckled. Seeing that the book capital had already reached 6.2 million, he said coolly, “You can
be filthy rich in the previous second and penniless the next. You can be in high spirits in one moment
before the world comes crashing down the next. This is the futures market—the riskiest, most thrilling
game.”
Looking up at Samuel who was completely stunned, Jasper got up and picked up the check on the
table. He said indifferently, “Thank you, Mr. Ray, for the gift.”
