Jin Peng, upon hearing this subordinate dare to talk back, became even more furious. He immediately grabbed a tablet computer from the table and hurled it at Jin Zhe.
"You better open your damn dog eyes and see what good deeds you've done!"
Jin Zhe, terrified, quickly dodged. The tablet smashed heavily against the wall, shattering into pieces.
He was completely bewildered and desperately wanted to know what had happened.
So, Jin Zhe tremblingly took out his mobile phone and opened the stock trading software. He glanced at the data, confirming that he had bought stocks with his entire capital.
However, the purchase price seemed much lower than they had anticipated.
Jin Zhe was puzzled. He and the market manipulators behind him had long colluded to drive down the stock price and then buy at the bottom.
But according to their plan, no matter how much the stock price was suppressed, it shouldn't have gone this low.
Jin Zhe immediately felt something was wrong. He refreshed the page and saw the name and code of the stock purchased. His pupils contracted sharply, and the phone fell heavily to the ground.
"This... this is impossible..." Jin Zhe's eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.
As an expert who had been in the securities market for many years, he naturally knew what kind of stock Hengtai Automobile was. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call that thing a piece of dog shit.
It was possible that one day, this stinking dog shit would be forcibly delisted, or even face bankruptcy liquidation, rendering their shares worthless, not even as good as used toilet paper.
But now, he had used all of the Jin family's assets, mortgaged and liquidated, to invest the hard-earned tens of billions of funds into this stinking dog shit!
Such an action was no different from burning money for firewood, except that they did it much faster than directly using fire!
"I want an explanation! Why, why did you do this?"
"I... I... I really don't know..." Jin Zhe, a grown man, was so scared that he started crying.
He was well aware that his two bosses, this father and son duo, were by no means benevolent. And he himself had truly caused a cosmic-level disaster today!
This was more than just tens of billions of funds going down the drain. Almost all of the Jin family's industries had their liquid capital drained. How could any enterprise survive without funds?
As a result, these companies under the Jin family would either go bankrupt due to lack of funds or be seized by creditors for failing to repay their loans.
It was known that although the Jin family had considerable influence in Jiangzhou, those who dared to lend them money were also not to be trifled with!
But for Jin Zhe, the biggest problem was that he had no idea what had happened!
In fact, the matter was not complicated at all. The methods Ling Tian used on Jin Zhe were almost identical to the methods used by the Tianshan Sword Sect when they assassinated him.
Ling Tian infiltrated the Jin family's headquarters and, in the restroom, hypnotized Jin Zhe, injecting a command into his subconscious.
With the help of the Soul Refining Furnace in the Spiritual Realm space, Ling Tian was easily able to achieve this.
The command Ling Tian left behind was not complicated: to subconsciously have Jin Zhe replace the originally selected Yingyi Shares with Hengtai Automobile!
During their final discussion, the subconscious command was triggered, and thus, this shocking tragedy occurred.
"You're still being stubborn! I'll kill you!" Jin Peng, with bloodshot eyes, raised his hand to strike Jin Zhe dead on the spot. However, Jin Tianxiang directly reached out and grabbed his son's wrist.
"Don't kill him. Letting him die so easily would be too kind! Take him away, use every method you can on him. I want to see how stubborn he is, and I want to see who ordered him to do this!"
"Alright, I understand. I will take good care of him!"
Jin Peng said, and then, grabbing Jin Zhe by the collar, he dragged him out.
As soon as the two of them left, Jin Tianxiang also spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately collapsed to the ground, unconscious!
The next day, the entire stock market in China knew about this incident. A great philanthropist had emerged, using tens of billions of funds to help countless trapped retail investors break even.
Then, after this misguided benefactor finished buying the stocks, Hengtai Automobile's stock price once again hit the daily limit down! Da Feng Novel Network
...
In a top private hospital in Jiangshan City, Jin Peng, the head of the Jin family, slowly opened his eyes.
He had vomited blood twice in the past year, and his body had suffered severe trauma.
Especially this time, he had thought that after half a year of hard work, he could finally turn things around, only to find that this blow was even more severe!
What made him even more depressed was that he still had no idea who was behind him!
This time, it wasn't just about spitting blood; he even had a slight contusion in his brain. Fortunately, the rescue was timely.
The doctor told Jin Peng that the old master of their family could no longer withstand such stimulation. If it happened again, he should prepare for his funeral.
Jin Tianxiang finally opened his eyes, his body extremely weak. However, he still gestured to Jin Peng by the bedside to help him raise the hospital bed.
"Has that scumbag Jin Zhe confessed? Who ordered him to do this!" Although his voice was weak, Jin Peng could feel the anger emanating from his father.
"Dad, no. I've already killed that guy. I've used all sorts of methods, but he still won't confess!"
Jin Tianxiang remained silent. As the head of the Jin family, he knew very well how cruel the methods his son spoke of were when applied to people. Yet, even such methods couldn't make Jin Zhe yield. How powerful must the other party's methods be to turn their own loyalists into the enemy's? This was unheard of.
"How are our family's businesses? Have they been affected?"
"They are currently stable..." While answering, Jin Peng's gaze was somewhat unfocused. Things were not as simple as he made them out to be.
But there was no other way; he had to lie. If Jin Tianxiang knew the truth, the old man would probably spit out another mouthful of blood and kick the bucket.
How could Jin Tianxiang, an old fox like him, be fooled by Jin Peng's performance? He immediately understood and sighed.
"Alas, don't lie to me. With these kinds of people, as you can imagine, they are all flesh-eaters. At this time, they must already know that the Jin family is in crisis, and they are all waiting to kick us while we're down! It's normal. If it were me, I would make the same choice."
"Dad, does this mean that our family is finished? Is there no chance to turn things around?"
