Victory in Life
Chapter 07
Penelope's voice was shrill and evil. At the same time, the hall was also crowded with people. Suddenly, Jasper became the center of everyone's attention when they all looked at him curiously.
“This is not your home. My coming here has nothing to do with you. Please don't bother me,” Jasper said with a frown.
Penelope sneered coldly, “It's true this has nothing to do with me. I'm just worried that the two coins in your pocket aren't enough to pay for the handling fee. How dare you come to trade stocks? How embarrassing!” yells.
At that moment, Richton White also approached.
After seeing Jasper's card in the Glory Jewellers that day, Richton pondered it all day. How could a young man in his early twenties have funds reaching ten million dollars?
Therefore, the card did not belong to Jasper.
Someone rich must have asked Jasper to help him.
Richton's mind became clear after thinking so. He feels much more comfortable.
“Alright, Penelope. Why are you making trouble with a poor jerk who has never seen the outside world? My friend has arranged something for us. We can go directly to the VIP room to open an account. A jerk like him would probably never get the chance to see what the VIP room was like in his entire life!”
Richton walked over and spoke to Penelope with a grin.
Penelope's gaze looked satisfied and felt superior. "really so. You're the best, Richton. You can enter the VIP room as you please while a poor jerk like him can only admire us,”.
Penelope then looked down at Jasper condescendingly.
After they left, Wendy came across a middle-aged man in a hurry.
As soon as Wendy appeared, her beautiful appearance caught the attention of everyone in the hall. All men and women of all ages notice it.
“I'm so sorry, Mr. Laine. I'm Harold Wood. I'm sorry for letting you wait.”
After hearing all the things about Jasper, the middle-aged man ran as fast as lightning. High-end clients like Jasper are rare. If he managed to sign a contract with her, his performance would increase.
"It's okay" said Jasper.
...
Inside the private reception room.
"Mr Laine, do you intend to trade crude oil futures? No problem, President Jackson has instructed us to give Mr the highest discount as commission,” Harold told Jasper in a polite tone.
“Account opening and agency fee are free. However, to facilitate the preparation of the contract, please tell me how much you want to invest and the leverage you want to use,”.
“Twelve million dollars. I want fifty times the leverage to turn those twelve million into six hundred million dollars, which will be used as operational funds. If the amount is too small, it will be a waste of time!”
The entire reception room went silent after Jasper spoke.
"Mr ... Mr. Laine, it's too risky!" Harold stuttered.
As the business manager of a securities firm, Harold had seen many incredible numbers. Six hundred million dollars is not much, but as a private futures speculator, Jasper dared to use twelve million dollars to get a fund of six hundred million dollars. Harold would never dare to do so!
“High risk, high profit. Mr Wood, are you afraid to accept this offer?” Jasper asked, smiling meaningfully at him.
"Mr Laine, we can accept Mr.'s offer on one condition. You have to deposit twelve million dollars into a securities company account on full margin, and that money cannot be transferred out until your futures account is clean,” Harold said.
Jasper nodded. He smiled and extended his hand. "It's nice to work with you" he said.
Harold heaved a sigh of relief. He clasped Jasper's hand with both hands. Harold, who was quite famous in the financial industry, looked at Jasper with an inexplicable gaze.
The contract signing was quick. Wendy finally found an opportunity to say something.
"Mr Laine ... Jasp, isn't that too risky?”
Wendy admires Jasper's bravery. However, he was also a bit worried.
“I'm sure I can do it.”
Jasper laughed and pointed to the chair opposite him. "Sit. Even though you are my personal assistant, I am not your boss. Let's hang out as friends,” he said to her.
Wendy pursed her lips and smiled. The serious atmosphere in the reception room immediately melted.
"My mind is bright."
Jasper pointed to his head.
“That's why I just did something I believed in. Once I'm sure of something, there's no need to care what others think.if it's something I don't understand, I'll never touch it.”.
Jasper said so to help Wendy.
From the memories of her past life, she knows that Wendy is the daughter of a rich man. His father, Dawson Schuler, was the richest man in the province. None of their classmates knew.
Jasper found out after the Dawson Schuler incident.
Today, Dawson Schuler is still the richest man in the province. However, the incident must have happened.
Almost half a year later, news of the Schuler Company's capital chain broke. The richest man in the province, Dawson Schuler, then committed suicide by jumping off a building!
Dawson Schuler went bankrupt because he entered the financial industry, which he did not understand at all despite having earned his fortune from the textile business. Coincidentally, he went through a financial crisis that caused billions upon billions of dollars to disappear in an instant.
After Dawson died, Wendy would be tormented by the loss.
Wendy is the only classmate who has never looked down on her and also the beautiful girl she has been dating for a long time. He wanted to try to help her in this life so that everything would not change in the same way.
Wendy is a plain-hearted girl. He seemed to be pondering something after listening to her words. But the woman answered nothing.
After signing the agreement and completing the transfer of funds made by Wendy, Jasper's international futures account has twelve million dollars in funds.
Jasper still has 1.6 million dollars in his account, which he uses to open domestic trading accounts.
It takes a few days to fuel the crude market. During that period of time, he was able to take advantage of the up-and-coming domestic stock market opportunity to make a lot of money by buying some well-known stocks.
Since this year is the millennium year, the domestic stock market will rise steadily until 2008. If he is not very lucky during that time, he will be able to earn long-term income by owning several stocks.
Meanwhile, many investors have been blinded by some well-known stocks. Some people take this opportunity and get rich whereas the majority of them can only look at this stock price increase anxiously.
Since Jasper had the chance to be reborn, he did not want to miss an opportunity like this.
"Do you have any personal savings?"
Jasper suddenly asked Wendy after creating her domestic trading account.
Wendy's dumbfounded. "I've saved up over 200,000 dollars" he said awkwardly.
During times like this, it was an amazing feat for Wendy to save as much as 200,000 dollars. However, it was not much given his family background.
"Let's get some money together" said Jasper, convincing him to open an account as well.
