“You used to be really low-profile and careful with every other listed company you tried to screw over before. So, why’re you making such large movements this time?”
Henry seemed to have transformed into a curious child as he repeatedly asked Jasper questions.
“The Seatreasures Group is too huge, and we alone cannot devour all of it. If anything, it’s highly likely that we’re going to get screwed over instead if we try.
Thus, I have to put myself out in the open in hopes of attracting more capital to the pool.
“The last thing the capitalist market lacks is smart people. Everyone will come to a tacit understanding in the blink of an eye. After all, chances like this to earn such huge sums of money are rare.”
Jasper explained with a smile.
Just as Jasper finished speaking, Jake’s voice rang out as well.
“Mr. Laine, there are other large buy orders. I suspect that an organization has entered the market.”
“I’ve traced the source of the funds. It’s one of the country’s large organizations.”
“Good.”
Jasper nodded in satisfaction. Then, he turned to Henry, who was in awe, and said.
“See, the smart people have already entered the market. We were the first and our initial investment was sizeable. Because of this, these organizations will surround us to form a temporary group. This group will soon suck Seatreasures of every penny it is worth.”
“Wow! ” Henry exclaimed genuinely.
He had a sudden epiphany about how weak his previous methods of asserting dominance were as he resorted to disrespecting and beating people up.
Meanwhile, Jasper had managed to take control over the financial market during their joyful conversation, or at the very least, seized control of the 40 billion Somer Dollar market of a huge group like Seatreasures. This was a transaction worth billions of dollars. This was
true power.
His methods on the other hand…
They were nothing more than child’s play.
At that moment, Harbor City Securities Regulatory Commission released a statement.
There were three main points in the statement.
Firstly, it revealed that Seatreasures Group was currently under government investigation.
Secondly, it promised and guaranteed that Seatreasures Group’s day-to-day operations would not be affected. It stated that the core management team had already passed the investigation and there would not be any huge personnel changes.
Thirdly, it stated that Seatreasures Group would recycle their 2 billion worth of shares.
With this statement, Seatreasures Group’s share prices were instantly thrown into chaos.
The moment 2 billion of Seatreasures Group’s own funds entered the market, the share prices were instantly stabilized. This was thanks to Jasper and the other organizations that had entered the market beforehand.
The tragic red of Seatreasures Group’s share prices suddenly reverted into a green trend again.
It had only been three minutes since the statement was released and Seatreasures Group before had recovered and turned the tables.
From a low opening price, the shares began to rise, with the trend predicting further increases that were soon to come.
Far away in Seatreasure Group’s headquarters in Teo City, Alban was enraged when he saw this.
“Dammit! These greedy b*stards! Jasper you b*stard, so you were waiting for this all along!”
Seatreasures Group’s share price had indeed stopped dropping. Alban had achieved his goal, but all of this had happened too quickly and easily.
While he had managed to avert the crisis, the current situation was not something Alban wanted to see.
What he needed was for Seatreasures Group’s share prices to start rising again thanks to the group’s own funds.
However, the rise right now was thanks to Jasper and that group of opportunistic organizations, with the former leading the latter.
In other words, Jasper and those large capitalist organizations were like eager jackals, ready to devour the entire 2 billion that Alban had invested at a moment’s notice!
