At that, the three other men present were dazed.
Even John, who trusted Jasper the most, was shocked. He knew that Jasper was someone who would
never hesitate once he found an opening, but he had not expected Jasper to be so brave.
“Won’t you give it a deeper thought, Jasper? After all, the bar for the futures market is too high. We
only have 800,000 dollars. I’m afraid we’ll hit liquidation right away with the slightest pullback in price if
we buy in the entire position.”
“That’s right, Mr. Laine. The prices have already risen by 2,000 Somer Dollars. That’s a 16% increase.
While it is exciting, the market price is bound to return to normal once it reaches a high enough
amount,” Kai spoke carefully.
Samuel could not help but guffaw. “I can’t believe I actually got startled when you talked so big and
surely just now. You’re just a useless nobody, after all. Hahaha!
“You’re f*cking stupid. Do you think you can just rush in because it’s good news? What do you take the
futures market for, a taxi? Do you think the prices will spike just because it’s raining?
“Do you even know what a pullback is? It’s rare for idiots like you to continue trading in the market
when prices reach a certain high. There are people who’ve been holding futures stocks for a long time
and if they see that there’s a profit, some of them will choose to sell. Most people tend to look at the
trend first and then the price will of course drop back to normal. That’s called a pullback.
“Do you even f*cking understand me? A slight drop of 1,000 bucks will have your capital of 800,000
dollars hitting liquidation. It’ll be too late for you to cry then.”
Samuel then sneered at Kai. “You’ve wasted 40 years of your life, Jones. It’s still not too late for you to
regret it now since you haven’t bought in. But I’ll be charging 40% for commission and procedures this
time if you want me to help!”
Kai clenched his jaw quietly and turned to Jasper.
Jasper sighed and spoke, “If you trust me, then do as I say. If you don’t want to trust me, then I’ll get up
and leave.”
Kai fell silent for two seconds before he clenched his jaw and spoke, “I’ll listen to you!”
“Then buy in.”
Jasper shook his head when he looked at the market. There had been a 400 dollars increase in the
price of cotton during the one to two minutes Kai hesitated.
People tended to speak of legends about the wealthy with envy, claiming that they only grew rich
because they were lucky.
However, what they did not know was that luck had never played a part in becoming rich when it came
to the financial market.
Even if you stood right where the wind blew and a chance had found its way to you, you still needed
the courage to risk your entire wealth and life to catch it.
Or you would still be the plain, ordinary person you were.
Kai was not someone with that sort of bravery, so there was a limit to his success.
Seeing how Kai had begun to buy in, Samuel’s expression turned colder as he sneered sinisterly. “Go
ahead, then. Buy in, it’s just 800,000 dollars anyway. I’d like to see if you’re going to jump out from this
window when you hit liquidation.”
“Shut up!”
Under immense psychological stress, Kai no longer feared Samuel’s power and shouted at him darkly,
“This is my office. I can and will call someone to throw you out!”
Samuel took a deep breath and pointed at Kai angrily, “What the f*ck did you say? How dare you talk to
me like that?!”
Kai’s expression was dark as he ignored Samuel and turned to Jasper. “It’s done.”
Jasper spoke plainly, “People like to call the financial market a legal gambling table and they’re not
wrong. Especially the futures market that comes with the biggest risk.
“This gambling table has a daily cash flow of trillions of Somer Dollars. Money and lives aren’t worth
anything here.
“If you want to win, then these are the most important traits you need. You need to be crazy enough to
sacrifice everything and the sensitivity of a monster. And perhaps a little bit of luck as well.
“If you want to be careful and risk-free, then you might as well deposit your money into the bank and
wait for interest.”
Kai was a good man at heart, so Jasper decided that he was worth a few reminders here and there. As
to how much Kai understood, well that would be up to him. Jasper would not concern himself with it.
Kai seemed slightly confused while John fell deep in thought.
