The party lasted for three and a half hours. In the end, the guests and host were all happy and they
went back to their respective accommodations.
Since the United States stock market was about to open, when the party came to an end, no one
stayed behind. They all went back to pay attention to the development of the matter. When they left,
everyone looked solemn and cautious. They knew that with the opening of the United States stock
market, a capital war between the East and the West, which was destined to be written down in the
history of modern human economics, was about to unfold.
After the party, Jasper rushed to Southface River Tower alongside Henry.
On the top of the floor, although Henry had previously heard Jasper talking about the new layout, when
he saw the huge LED surround screen occupying three walls and enclosing the entire building with his
own eyes, he was shocked.
“Damn, where did you get this screen?”
For the first time ever, Henry was the country bumpkin!
“This was pieced together with 25 individual screens. The price is decent. Each screen is 390 thousand
bucks, but they needed to be customized. It took more than half a month to install it.”
Jasper said while pointing to the entire lobby that was transformed into a trading center. Then, he
continued, “This is our base camp for the next few days.”
“Mr. Laine, did you see the announcement just released by the Federal Reserve?” Jake, who had been
preparing for a long time here, suddenly walked over and said.
“You mean that they are restricting the offshore withdrawal limit of Somerland’s capital?” Jasper said
with a smile.
It was unknown how many pairs of eyes were staring at the United States right now. How could Jasper
not have received the news immediately after the Federal Reserve made such a huge announcement?
Less than a few minutes after it was announced, Jasper got the news while he was still at the party.
“Yeah, will this affect us?” Jake asked.
Jasper shook his head and said, “They’re just worried that we will cash out and run away as soon as
trading commences. Since we have no intention of running away, what impact will it have on us?”
“They said they’re the most popular country in the world, but they’re so petty. Are they not afraid that
people will laugh at them?”
Jasper never imagined that he would spontaneously say the same thing as a cripple in Swallow
Capital.
Jasper stood with his hands behind his back on the high platform at the entranceway. He was watching
the busy people and new equipment on the deck below. Right now, the whole building was filled with
tension and passion.
“The storm is about to begin.”
It was less than 24 hours before the United States stock market resumed trading. The global financial
situation fell into a strange calmness. Even the reporters who typically liked to make groundless
accusations were quiet.
It was as if the financial and economic circles of the world were holding their breath while waiting for
the time of reckoning to come.
At this moment, Jasper got up in the morning, took a shower, and ate breakfast. Then, he watched the
news on the financial channel. The host on the television screen was dressed in a formal suit while
broadcasting news.
“Ever since the terrorist attack on the United States, the financial stock market had fallen sharply. As
the core of the global economy, the United States stock market has suffered a severe setback,
inevitably radiating a sharp drop in the indices and stock prices of other major trading centers around
the world.”
“After that, the United States announced its first plan to rescue the market.”
“Although that round of superficial market rescue did not cause any tangible improvements on the
market, it did prevent the situation from getting worse. For stockholders and investors, it was also a
confidence boost for them to see that the United States government would intervene.”
“But now, after the first active suspension in United States history, the market will open in less than 24
hours, causing other major trading centers around the world to fall into strange stillness.”
“This indicates that the United States, as a global economic and financial center, remains unshakable
in its position. All trading centers and investors around the world are paying attention to the direction of
the United States stock market after the opening of the market.”
“In 24 hours, the United States stock market will reopen. Whether it rises or falls, it will directly affect
the state of the global economy!”
In front of the television, Jasper put the sunny-side-up onto Wendy’s plate and said with a straight face,
“I heard Mrs. Clarkson say that you’re always secretly throwing away the sunny-side-up she made for
you. It’s despicable to waste food, don’t you know?”
Wendy said with a sad face, “But I really don’t like sunny-side-ups.”
“Eggs are not precious, but they are indeed a good source of nutrients. You just caught a cold and your
body has not yet fully recovered. Having more protein is good for you,” Jasper patiently persuaded.
With a sigh, Wendy took a bite of the sunny-side-up with a sad face. Then, she picked the yolk out and
threw it into the Jasper bowl.
Wendy spoke up when she saw that Jasper had something to say, “You said I only needed to eat more
egg whites! I don’t want to eat egg yolks!”
Jasper sighed helplessly.
“I remember you also don’ t like to eat the filling when you eat dumplings and only eat the skin.”
“The skin is tasty! The filling is too much for me.” Wendy said boldly and confidently.
“I remember you also only eat the top of broccoli and not the stem.”
“The stem is too hard and it’s slightly bitter.” Wendy started to sound less confident
When she saw that Jasper was about to say something else, she puffed up her cheeks and glared at
Jasper.
“Are you done?” Wendy asked angrily.
Jasper ate the yolk and said smartly, “I’m done.”
