Life at The Top novel Chapter 2016

Somerland A-shares were vital to domestic finance.

The reason why the United States sniped Harbor Stocks this time was to force Jasper to make a choice. However, Soros forgot something. He never thought that the government intervention of Somerland would be so quick. In other words, his obsession with devouring Harbor Stocks missed this factor.

Lord Alvarado frowned as he thought about what Jasper said.

“According to what you said, it’s fine as long as you keep the A-shares from falling, right? And Soros will just give up just like that?”

Jasper smiled meaningfully and said, “Of course, Soros is just a marionette. The real trader is still in hiding, and he just needs to report back after the completion of his mission.”

After he said that, everything made sense.

The huge turmoil in Harbor Stocks this time allowed the people of Somerland to witness a historic moment.

“Jasper, I admire you very much. 160 billion to protect Harbor Stocks, huh… Are you not scared that Soros will make have unreasonable reactions while flustered because he didn’t achieve his goals?”

The little prince pinched his chin, calculating the pros and cons of this matter. Then, he shifted his gaze to Jasper.

Jasper smiled wantonly, spreading his hands in disapproval.

“This attack on Harbor Stocks made almost all of the listed companies in Harbor City their burial offerings. Isn’t it already beyond common sense?

“As for the game, it is only natural that you return politeness with politeness.”

Jasper’s eyes were calm, but the seed of revenge in his heart had already taken root. He would use any practical action to tell the other party that Somerland was not a place that any irrelevant people can put their hands on.

If 160 billion of funds suddenly poured into Harbor Stocks, Soros would be incredibly confused, causing a huge impact. In any case, it was indeed a method worth trying.

“Jasper, I’m starting to admire you more and more. You’ re the only one who can play with Soros like this!” The little prince smiled and stopped talking.

Jasper tapped the table with his fingers, making a crisp sound. “Okay, shall we proceed or not?

“The decision to save Harbor Stocks is in your hands.” As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Alvarado picked up the teacup beside him emotionally.

He raised it high and smashed it down to the ground. With a smash, it shattered into pieces.

“F*ck it, let’s do it!”

“I‘m used to only mingling in the country, I haven’t beaten these foreigners so lavishly before! This time, I want to be awe-inspiring no matter what. Let the people in Swallow Capital take a good look at this!” Lord Alvarado said excitedly.

Jasper frowned slightly as he looked at the shattered teacup on the ground and felt sorrowful. This was the enamel cup from his collection.

“I also agree. Since we can’t avoid fighting them, we should do something big.” The little prince said with a firm gaze.

Jasper was very satisfied when he saw the attitude of the two men.

“If that’s the case, we’ll wait for the next trading day to start.”

Although they could not snipe the United States stock market right now, they could make Soros very troubled. After all, Soros only acted because of the higher-ups. If they wanted to stir up havoc in Somerland, they needed to be able to withstand huge waves. The worst thing that could happen was the United States government taking action after Soros failed, which would make everything even more exciting.

In fact, after thinking about it carefully, Jasper was sure that the United States had already made a move. Although they had always been acting behind the scenes, the person behind this had already covered the entire market.

When Harbor Stocks was hit by calamity, Jasper suspected that Soros must have only acted because he received an order. These actions were too cautious, and although they seemed to be out of order, every step was precise and methodical. This happened on both Harbor Stocks and Somerland A-shares. The United States absolutely wanted a piece of the pie, and that was why they reached out to the splendid beauty of Somerland.

It was a pity that Somerland had Jasper!

“Okay, let’s wait for tomorrow’s trading day then.” Jasper’s tone was extremely heavy, and a glimmer of light flickered in his deep eyes…
