At this moment, Dean, who had always maintained the image of a modest and courteous gentleman in
public, had a sinister glint in his gloomy expression.
The little prince’s words really hurt him. There was a long story behind this.
Gale had never been married in his life, so naturally, he would not have any descendants.
Therefore, he had done one thing for many decades, and that was adopt orphans all over the country.
Moreover, he did it very low-key. Until now, not many people knew about it.
However, almost everyone who knew that Gale was doing this all thought that Gale was doing this for
the sake of charity, which was undeniably a good thing. As an orphan adopted by Gale, Dean knew
that Gale had another purpose for doing this.
That was to raise a successor that he was satisfied with. There was nothing wrong with such a thing,
but Gale’s methods were anything but ordinary. He would raise the orphans as if he was raising
malicious spirits.
Gale would often test the orphans. These tests would be based on the principle of survival of the fittest.
The ones who failed would go back to where they came from, and the winners would be eligible to stay.
Over the decades, Gale cultivated a large number of top talents from all walks of life. Dean himself was
specially selected and cultivated after Gale came into contact with Jasper.
Hence before Dean met Jasper, he was already aware that the only reason why he was being
presented such an opportunity was because Gale needed a young man who was like Jasper in order to
defeat Jasper. With this premise in mind, there was no need for Gale to guide Dean, as the latter
naturally regarded Jasper as his enemy since the start.
He had to prove himself by defeating Jasper so that he could show that he was the most successful
successor Gale had cultivated.
“Jasper, what’s so excellent about you?”
Dean had a sinister look on his face, as if he had just torn off his disguise at this moment. He muttered,
“One day, I will step on you in front of everyone!”

In the trading center in Nauritus City.
At this moment, the sky was turning bright, and some breakfast shops were preparing for the business
day. Despite facing a fierce battle in the trading hall for the entire night, many of the workers still looked
excited and energetic.
Only Jasper appeared a bit tired.
As the person who bore the most pressure, it was no use to tell the others the mental pressure he was
under. “Mr. Laine, Quantum Fund’s offensive has slowed down.”
“Mr. Laine, the first trading day is officially over.”
The voices of Jake and Baz could be heard almost simultaneously.
Jasper rubbed his face with both hands, pulled himself together, and said, “Tell me today’s results.”
Jake took the data report and reported, “Today the Dow Jones Index opened at 7429 points. After a
trading day, it closed at 7425 points, down 4 points.”
“But it is worth noting that the trading volume of the Dow Jones Index today has exceeded all historical
records and more than doubled in one go. The trading volume of the entire Dow Jones Index today
exceeded 20 trillion US dollars.”
“It can be said that just today, there will be 20 trillion US dollars of wealth flowing under the combined
stewardship of us and Quantum Fund.”
“But it is undeniable that we did not complete the predetermined goal today.”
“We had aimed to penetrate the Dow Jones defensive line at 7400 points today, but we haven’t
reached it yet. In other words…”
Jake put down the file in his hand. He looked a little off color as he said, “From a strategic perspective,
we were completely defeated today.”
After Jake said that, the team members in the trading center who had been relaxed because they had
completed a day‘s work were silent. No one dared to speak or even breathe too loudly.
Clap clap.
Jasper clapped his hands, attracting everyone’s attention.
Then, he stood in the trading center and said, “Everyone, I think after today, you should have a full
understanding of our opponents.”
“Seated across from us are the world‘s top professional financial trading team.”
Jasper glanced over the faces of every member present and said in a deep voice, “From the Terra
financial crisis to the Internet economic bubble crisis last year, to the currency attacks of various
countries over the past few years, this team has dominated all major financial events in the world over
the past 20 years.”
“In the most simple terms possible, your entire career has so far played out admiring the brilliant record
and history of this team.”
“What we are doing is taking on these legends of financial history that we discuss day and night as
challenger. Needless to say, doing so is very difficult. However, temporary failure is not scary, as we are
also growing every day! All I need you to do now is to turn off the computer, go back to have a good
meal, take a bath, sleep, replenish your energy, and prepare for tomorrow’s battle!”
“In the future, our battles will only become increasingly anxious and fierce, and each day will be tenser
than the last, so now is your last chance to relax.”
“Go and rest!”
After he waved his hand, Jasper finished speaking and returned to the office.
The work of the team had ended, but his work was not over yet.
He still needed to meet with the heads of the two trading centers, Harbor City and Waterhoof City.
During the video conference, Jasper looked at the footage from Waterhoof City. Only the little prince
showed up, as Lord Alvarado was nowhere to be seen.
“Lord Alvarado is tired. He went back early to rest.”
As if knowing what Jasper wanted to ask, the little prince took the initiative to speak.
Jasper nodded and did not comment on this.
“Now, let’s summarize and conclude the losses of each trading center for the first trading day. Harbor
City will go first,” Jasper said.
On the screen, Kayden looked a little tired. He said, “The situation in Harbor City is okay. Today’s loss
is about 500 million US Dollars.”
Jasper looked at the little prince.
“2.3 billion US Dollars.”
The little prince said lightly.
Jasper let out a sigh of relief and said, “The Nauritus City headquarters has a net loss of 4 billion US
Dollars today.”
This number made the little prince and Kayden raise their eyebrows.
Obviously, this number was beyond their expectations.
“This is mainly because we had to help Waterhoof City relieve the pressure. That’s why the figure
increased a lot.”
“But it is also undeniable that Quantum Fund is more difficult to deal with than we imagined. Such
losses may continue for some time into the future. It is also more than likely that the losses will
worsen,” Jasper said calmly.
