When the Sun Dollars exchange rate broke through 130 points, everyone in the Nauritus City trading center cheered.
Jake clenched his fists and yelled, “Bravo!”
At this moment, it was not just their victory. This meant that Sun Dollars had made history and the exchange rate had reached a record low. This was the victory of all shorting parties and it was a feast for global capital.
The moment Sun Dollars fell below 130 points, huge amounts of capital swarmed over.
They had reasons to believe that the defense system of Sun Dollars had been completely broken down. Before the central bank of Sunrise Land used foreign exchange reserves or the head of Sunrise Land issued new orders, Sunrise Land was an undefended treasure and all the wealth in it was free for them to take.
The shorts went crazy. The capitalists went crazy. Everyone went crazy.
Financial magazines and media news all over the world reported this incident frantically.
At this moment, this incident was broadcasted on all financial channels in a state of panic-it totally did not matter what reports it was broadcasting beforehand as they were promptly replaced with this news.
No one thought that the economic system of Sunrise Land, the world’s second-largest economy, could be penetrated so easily.
In sharp contrast to the cheers and celebration of the capitalists from around the world, Sunrise Land was full of sorrow.
A radical media outlet had even made a pessimistic view that Sunrise Land’s economy would collapse, national wealth would be plundered, and the economy of the whole society would be pushed back 20 years. Under such pessimistic views, a large number of people began to gather below the central bank and Softwin for demonstrations.
This was an invisible war, but it was closely tied to every citizen.
Jasper issued the latest order when he saw Sun Dollars continue to avalanche.
“Withdraw!”
It was a simple word, yet, it made the team that was cheering and high fiving each other fell silent all of a sudden.
Everyone looked at Jasper with a look of horror. They were wondering if Jasper had misspoken or if they had misheard.
“Did you not hear me? Withdraw all funds!”
Jasper frowned and repeated.
Jake came back to his senses at this time and shouted, “Execute the order immediately! Execute the order!”
The whole team snapped back to their senses as everyone went back to their posts and started to execute orders. However, their faces were still full of confusion.
The current situation was as if Jasper was leading them to dig a ditch to connect to the river. After so much hard work, the great project would be completed since the largest stone was removed and all that was left was to continue digging for a bit. Yet, Jasper suddenly asked everyone to take their tools and go home for dinner. Some people were confused, some people were puzzled, and a small number of people were even angry, but during this period, they also understood Jasper’s training and authority over the team, so no one dared to violate Jasper’s orders.
***
At this moment, far away in Sunrise Land.
The Softwin headquarters was busy.
“Sir, more people are marching downstairs. Although there are police from the Metropolitan Police Department maintaining order, they can’t stop such a large crowd. A small group of militants are also beginning to stage a sit in in the plaza downstairs.”
Listening to his subordinate’s report, Myles asked nonchalantly, “What are they asking for?”
The subordinate said with embarrassment, “They asked the chairman to lead the entire company’s operation team to collectively resign and pay a bigger price.”
“A bigger price? Are you going to send me to jail?” Myles sneered and said, “Those fools don’t know anything. Don‘t worry about them for the time being.”
At this moment, the Sun Dollars exchange rate had fallen to 134 points.
The phone rang timely.
Myles knew that this was a call from the higher ups of the central bank, and he had already prepared what they needed.
After lifting the phone to his ear, Myles said in a deep voice, “This is Myles Shon.”
On the other end of the phone, an old man’s voice could be heard. “This is Vernon Wasser.”
“Mr. Wasser, what can I do for you?” It was a call from the president of Sunrise Central bank, Vernon Wasser. Hence, Myles quickly said respectfully.
“The deputy had passed an emergency bill at the special parliament. Before the head regains consciousness, he can exercise all the powers of the head. The first order he issued is to allow the central bank to withdraw our foreign exchange reserves. I can bring our foreign exchange reserves to the market at any time to save Sun Dollars exchange rate. How much
money do you need?”
Myles suppressed his excitement and said, “At least 800 billion US Dollars.”
This number was astronomical in any place and any era.
Vernon hesitated, “That much? Some countries have used foreign exchange reserves to rescue the market before, but no country has ever used so much money at once. Has the situation deteriorated to this point?”
Myles hurriedly replied, “No, if it is just to save the market, 500 billion US Dollars is enough, but this time, I want the instigator from Somerland to be doomed to eternal damnation. He has to pay a painful price for offending and plundering the national wealth of Sunrise Land!”
“In addition to this, I also need the cooperation of the central bank to release funds into the market and then make an announcement. This way, I can confuse Jasper as much as possible and have him fall into our trap without realizing it.”
“As soon as the announcement comes out, the hot money and institutions will disperse in confusion. Then, Jasper will be left with the huge tab that he can‘t get away with even if he wanted to.”
After listening to Myles, Vernon said in a deep voice, “The central bank will do its best to support you and I will also give you the cooperation you need, but you also see the current national sentiment. We do not allow failure. For you and me, there is only one chance, do you understand?”
Myles tensed and said loudly, “Yes, I understand!”
After he hung up, Myles immediately called Soros in the United States.
This was what the two had discussed. Now that the resources of the central bank were in place, an overwhelming net would naturally unfold.
However, just as Myles was about to move, the exchange rate of Sun Dollars suddenly rebounded sharply.
“What happened? Could it be that the central bank’s funds entered the market early?”
Myles hurried to the front of the screen and said in disbelief.
“Sir, no, it’s not the funds of the central bank, but the funds of JW Foundation, Sentel Corporation, and the the Somerland mainland. All of them have begun to withdraw!” Someone shouted.
The subordinate who did not know the higher-up’s plan sounded like he was in disbelief and excitement. This was like a girl who was pushed down by a strong man. After all her clothes were stripped off and she thought she would be unable to run away from this, the strong man suddenly got up and left.
This joy of getting a new lease of life was almost overflowing.
However, this news was like a bolt from the blue for Myles and Soros.
