August 25th, Tuesday.
This was the second day of the last week of August for the Hang Seng Index.
Unlike yesterday, the Hang Seng Index immediately rallied after a slight dip at the open, rising by one percent in less than thirty seconds.
Seeing the bright red index line, Qin Chuan, who had been closely watching the market in the VIP room, immediately gave a loud order:
"Mao Huasheng, go all-in, bullish!"
Mao Huasheng, acting as the trader, transferred all the funds in the account without hesitation.
Beside him, his elder brother-in-law, Yang Conglong, trembled with excitement, his eyes gleaming.
He hadn't heard Qin Chuan utter the familiar and powerful phrase "go all-in" for a long time. Every time Qin Chuan said those words, it signified his unparalleled confidence.
Especially now that their account was larger than before, with the recent profits, the total funds had reached over twenty-five million.
With a tenfold leverage, this amounted to over two hundred and fifty million in capital, a truly terrifying number.
Every one percent fluctuation, up or down, saw the capital swing by two to three million. These figures were beyond the comprehension of many ordinary people.
In the stock market, Qin Chuan could even manipulate small-cap stocks and reap massive profits, making small retail investors suffer.
Amidst the tense atmosphere, everyone's eyes were fixed on the market. With a contract worth over two hundred and fifty million traded, today's success or failure depended on the Hang Seng Index's performance.
"It's rising! It's rising! Look, the market is continuing to climb!"
Yang Conglong pointed at the ever-climbing Hang Seng Index, his hands and feet dancing with excitement.
In the VIP room, Mao Huasheng and Xu Yang were also glued to the market. Seeing the continuously rising index, their faces flushed with excitement.
It was understandable; Qin Chuan had invested so much money. Although they were professionals and couldn't participate in futures trading, it was like watching someone play cards if you loved gambling. The bigger the stakes, the more excited they were as spectators!
Time flew by. By the end of the morning session, the market had risen by 2.6%. Qin Chuan had entered when the market rose by one percent, calculating a net profit of 1.6%.
Don't underestimate that mere 1.6%. With a tenfold leverage on over twenty-five million in funds, they had earned over three million.
Such a terrifying pace of making money—what business could compare?
Even a printing press wasn't this fast!
This was the allure of the futures or stock market, the feeling of unearned gain was incredibly satisfying. Of course, when losses occurred, they could be equally terrifying.
During the lunch break, at a high-end restaurant, Qin Chuan and Yang Conglong clinked glasses. His brother-in-law's eyes were still shining with excitement; after all, anyone who made so much money would be overjoyed.
"Qin Chuan, it feels great to have you back! This morning's profit is equivalent to my entire earnings last week!"
Qin Chuan smiled and replied, "That's different. Last week we only used a quarter of the funds. This time, we went all-in."
"Brother Long, after this week, I'll be heading back!"
Yang Conglong's joyous expression immediately froze, followed by undisguised disappointment.
Qin Chuan had already told him about this, making it clear that he would only stay until the end of the month and then return.
"Qin Chuan, you're so capable, are you really not planning to trade futures anymore?"
Yang Conglong sounded reluctant.
"I won't be touching it for the time being. My focus is on real industries!"
Qin Chuan explained.
"Brother Long, as I said before, after I leave, please try not to touch the futures market. The risks here are truly immense!"
"This time, our success was purely by chance, thanks to my strange dream."
Yang Conglong: "..."
He suspected Qin Chuan was lying. "Dream" sounded less plausible than his abilities, but he had no proof.
"Oh, right, I suddenly thought of something you can help me with!"
Qin Chuan suddenly added.
"It's like this, I've been involved in real estate development, and the construction team I was working with recently left due to some issues. I wanted to ask if you know anyone professional in this field?"
Yang Conglong narrowed his eyes, "You want to find a professional team from the provincial capital to build at your location?"
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean!"
Qin Chuan nodded. "Brother Long, you have a wide network and plenty of resources. I believe you must know people in this area."
Yang Conglong thought for a moment. "Hmm... I do know people in this field, but I'm not sure if he's busy lately. Let me call and ask for you!"
"Thank you, Brother Long!"
Qin Chuan was overjoyed.
"It's a small matter, brother. There's no need to be so polite between us!"
Yang Conglong took out his phone and made the call immediately.
After a few rings, the call was answered, and a hearty male voice came through.
"Boss Xie, I won't beat around the bush. I'm calling today to ask about something."
"Young Master Long, whatever you need, just say it!"
"It's like this, I remember you have an elite team that specializes in building, are they busy with any projects recently?"
Yang Conglong asked, Qin Chuan's ears perked up.
"Of course, Young Master Long! You wouldn't believe it, the real estate market is booming right now. The market, which has been sluggish for years, shows signs of a resurgence. Many big company bosses are rushing to buy land and build!"
Boss Xie said.
Qin Chuan's hopeful anticipation began to wane, and Yang Conglong also frowned slightly, feeling a loss of face in front of Qin Chuan, his expression turning grim.
Just as he was about to erupt, Boss Xie's tone suddenly shifted, "However, since Young Master Long has asked, no matter how busy we are, we must prioritize your request first!"
"What's this, Young Master Long, are you interested in real estate too?"
Yang Conglong's gloomy expression improved considerably.
"It's not me, but a brother of mine who has been involved in real estate."
"Recently, he's encountered some problems, so he wants to find a new elite team. That's why I thought of you."
Yang Conglong explained.
"This is simple. Let's arrange a meeting another day and chat over it."
Boss Xie said.
Yang Conglong turned his gaze to Qin Chuan, a questioning look on his face. Qin Chuan nodded.
"Alright, better late than never. How about tonight? We'll book a place and send you the details via text!"
Yang Conglong said decisively.
Boss Xie agreed, and after a few more pleasantries, they hung up.
"Qin Chuan, this Boss Xie's full name is Xie Jianguo. He's a well-known contractor with several construction teams under him. He not only builds but also sells properties."
"He's worth over a hundred million and is quite well-known in the provincial capital!"
Yang Conglong introduced Boss Xie's background to Qin Chuan.
"That's enough! That's more than enough!!"
Qin Chuan said with relief. He only intended to build in a small county.
Given the living standards and wages in the county, setting prices too high would deter buyers, resulting in modest profits. It wouldn't compare to the provincial capital, and there was no need to hire top-tier construction teams.
Doing so would further reduce profits, which would be a significant loss for him.
"Alright then, let's meet Xie Jianguo tonight!"
After finishing lunch, they returned to the trading hall right on time.
A few minutes later, the market reopened, continuing its morning trend. The market did not plunge; instead, it rallied again, with the bulls completely overpowering the bears.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan smiled. Today was completely secure!
Indeed, by the close of the afternoon session, the Hang Seng Index had risen by 4.2%. Qin Chuan and Yang Conglong made a net profit of over eight million!
The account balance, which was over twenty-five million, had now reached over thirty-three million!
The results were fruitful and substantial!
