"Your Majesty Ling Que, you might not know this, but the Haitong Group was already at its wits' end, on the verge of bankruptcy. However, at one o'clock this afternoon, for some reason, Haitong Group managed to procure one hundred billion, which directly boosted their stock. It's estimated they'll reach the limit soon. If I don't continue injecting funds now, all my money might go to waste!"
Xiao Wuji said helplessly. He had invested a hundred billion today. If he couldn't bring down Haitong Group's stock, it would likely hit the limit for several consecutive days. At that point, his short-selling funds wouldn't be able to be bought back, and he could only watch as he lost everything, possibly even to the last cent. After all, a lot of Xiao Wuji's money was leveraged.
"I don't have much money either. Our Cheng family has to support the Ling Que Guard, and our expenses have always been very high!"
Cheng Wanyun thought for a moment and said directly.
"Your Majesty Ling Que, please help me. With just a word from you, any bank would lend you money. If I don't get the money, I will truly face a terrible end!"
Xiao Wuji continued. This time, he had taken one hundred billion from the Xiao family. If he lost it all to Haitong Group, Xiao Wuji would essentially be expelled from the family. Although the Xiao family was wealthy, one hundred billion was not a small sum even for them.
"Alright, wait a few minutes. I'll ask the Yan Jing Bank!"
Cheng Wanyun thought for a moment, then finally agreed to Xiao Wuji and directly contacted Yan Jing Bank.
As expected, upon hearing that the caller was Your Majesty Ling Que, Yan Jing Bank immediately agreed to lend Your Majesty Ling Que one hundred billion at the lowest interest rate.
After all, Your Majesty Ling Que's reputation in Yan Jing was very well-known. The Ling Que Guard was also the most powerful iron-blooded legion guarding Yan Jing. With the name of Your Majesty Ling Que, one hundred billion was easily secured.
After receiving one hundred billion, Cheng Wanyun directly transferred it to Xiao Wuji.
"I'm using my title as Your Majesty Ling Que as collateral for this. You'd best make peace with Haitong Group. Otherwise, if this continues, it won't be good for anyone."
Cheng Wanyun said to him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Ling Que. I know what to do!"
Although Xiao Wuji said that, his mind was set on one thing: destroying Haitong Group. Only by taking over Haitong Group could he make a name for himself in the Xiao family and qualify to contend for the position of family patriarch. Therefore, Xiao Wuji could not make peace with Haitong Group.
It was just that Cheng Wanyun was naive and didn't think that far ahead.
At this moment, Haitong Group's stock had already risen by eight percent, just one step away from the limit.
If Lu Yang injected another twenty billion, he could directly push Haitong Group's stock to the limit.
But Lu Yang didn't do that. He was waiting. He knew Xiao Wuji wouldn't admit defeat so quickly. Lu Yang was waiting for Xiao Wuji's funds. It was only two hundred billion so far. Lu Yang's appetite wasn't just for these two hundred billion; he wanted to devour more of Xiao Wuji's money.
Indeed, at 1:30 PM, Xiao Wuji's one hundred billion funds had arrived and were all dumped into Haitong Group's stock, once again pushing Haitong Group's stock down. This sum of money was like a hungry wolf, dragging Haitong Group's stock continuously downwards. In less than a minute, it had pulled the stock down by six percent, and it was still falling.
"Chairman, Xiao Wuji has invested another one hundred billion. Should we act now?"
Lin Guoxiong looked at the curve chart and listened to the trader's explanation. He immediately understood that Xiao Wuji had invested one hundred billion and immediately reported to Lu Yang.
"One hundred billion? Xiao Wuji is truly rich. I wonder who he borrowed this hundred billion from, the Bai family? Or the Cheng family?"
Lu Yang sneered. All of Xiao Wuji's information was already on his desk. Lu Yang also knew that the only ones who could help Xiao Wuji at this moment were the Bai family and the Cheng family. However, to be able to come up with one hundred billion, whether it was the Bai family or the Cheng family, they would suffer losses brought by Xiao Wuji. This was because Lu Yang had six hundred billion in funds, and he had only used two hundred billion so far. There were still four hundred billion left. Even if he used all six hundred billion, with one phone call, he could get billions more. If you want to compete with Lu Yang in spending money, probably no family in the entire Huaguo could match him.
"Since Xiao Wuji wants to play with me, then invest another one hundred billion. I want to see how much money Xiao Wuji actually has!"
Lu Yang sneered and directly said to the financial manager.
"Yes, Chairman!"
The financial manager, upon receiving the order, went to invest the money.
Meanwhile, at Xiao Wuji's hotel, after another one hundred billion was injected, Xiao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sigh, this one hundred billion is stable. No matter how powerful Haitong Group is, that one hundred billion should be their last bit of funds. I believe they have exhausted all their resources. However, we are also out of money. We'll wait for Haitong Group's stock to fall tomorrow, retrieve some of it, and continue rotating our investments."
Xiao Wuji thought this way, feeling a sense of exhilaration. However, his exhilaration had not fully materialized before he saw Haitong Group's stock change direction again and head towards the limit.
"What's going on? Why is there still capital flowing into Haitong Group?"
Xiao Wuji was filled with disbelief. This time, he had invested a total of three hundred billion to attack Haitong Group, thinking that even if Haitong Group was incredibly strong, they would have no money left to oppose him. But now, it seemed that Haitong Group had once again injected a lot of money, causing the stock to reverse direction.
"Young Master Xiao, this is not good. Haitong Group has raised another one hundred billion in funds and dumped it into the stock. Haitong Group is now unstoppable and is about to hit the limit!"
As soon as the trader finished speaking, Haitong Group's stock directly hit the limit, and with a volume of one hundred thousand orders, it was firmly sealed at the limit, with a sealing volume of over fifty billion.
To break through Haitong Group's limit again would require at least sixty billion in funds.
"Why? Why does Haitong Group still have money?"
Xiao Wuji roared, picked up a glass of red wine in his hand, and smashed it violently on the ground.
"Young Master Xiao, please calm down. Don't anger yourself!"
Bai Hao stood by the side and quickly comforted him.
"Bai Hao, contact your family immediately and bring out fifty billion. We cannot concede defeat like this!"
Xiao Wuji shouted at Bai Hao.
"Young Master Xiao, my family only has ten billion, and it's all been invested. We have no money left!"
Bai Hao said with a mournful face. If Xiao Wuji was finished, his ten billion would also be lost, as after Xiao Wuji's money was gone, his money wouldn't be recoverable either.
