After Pretending To Lose All My Money, I Learn Of Human’s True Nature - Chapter 88

88 Buying the Plot of Land

Jiang Feng’s second uncle looked at Sang Yan. He knew instantly that Sang Yan was also going to agree with Jiang Feng’s suggestion. With that, he no longer hesitated and said, “Then, I’ll contact the company that owns this plot of land.”

“Alright. Thank you for your hard work, Second Uncle,” Jiang Feng said, heaving a sigh of relief inwardly.

…

Fortunately, his second uncle and Sang Yan supported his decision. Otherwise, it would have been really troublesome. This plot of land was very important to him, and it was important for him to obtain his second uncle and Sang Yan’s support. Now that they agreed to his idea, things would progress much more smoothly. Since the land was seen as a loss, the owner would be likely willing to sell it, and it would also make negotiation much easier. He would likely receive good news in a few days. His eyes flashed when he thought about this.

With the purchase of land handed to his second uncle, Jiang Feng thought it was time to focus on the stock market and Luo Yuchang and Kerry Financial Company’s movements. He decided to return to the company and wait for news.

…

Jiang Feng drove back to the company.

The employees were surprised when they saw him again. They gathered around him as soon as they saw him.

“President Jiang, do you want a cup of coffee? I made it myself. I drink coffee a lot so you can be assured of its taste!”

“President Jiang, is there something big going on? I feel like you’re in the company very often recently. Moreover, you’re always in high spirits.”

“President Jiang, you’re my role model! I feel that even if I work hard my entire life, I won’t be able to catch up to you. However, I’ll try my best not to be a burden to you!”

Jiang Feng waved his hand and smiled awkwardly. “I still have things to do. I’m sure you’re all very busy. You should return to your work. Don’t mind me.”

Every time Jiang Feng came to the company, the employees would be very enthusiastic. Those who did not know better would think he was a celebrity.

When Jiang Feng entered the office, Lin Miaoxue was pouring herself a cup of tea.

Meanwhile, Zhang Qidong and Song Yaozhong looked at the table with worried expressions on their faces.

Lin Miaoxue looked at the door when she heard it opening. Seeing that it was Jiang Feng, she poured another cup of tea. Then, she said with a faint smile, “Have a seat, President Jiang. I just made tea.”

Her voice attracted the duo’s attention immediately.

The duo straightened their backs and asked, “President Jiang, did you come with new information?”

“I’m still waiting for news. By the way, how’s the company’s recent operation?” Jiang Feng asked with a faint smile. However, inwardly, he felt slightly nervous. There should not be any accidents on his second uncle’s side. The probability of an accident was not high so they should be able to catch up quickly. As for Cinda Financial, he had not run the company for a long time so he did not know about the internal operations.

“President Jiang, take a seat first,” Zhang Qidong said as he gestured to Jiang Feng to sit down.

“All of you take a seat as well,’ Jiang Feng said as he sat down.

Zhang Qidong smiled and said, “President Jiang, the company invested in wheat’s futures. The situation is like this now.”

After that, Zhang Qidong moved the tablet in front of Jiang Feng and clicked on it, showing the operation of wheat’s futures.

“President, wheat’s futures dropped significantly from 11% to 5%. It seems to be a loss-making business, but after careful inspection, I found that it’ll profit us,” Zhang Qidong said, beaming with joy at the end of his words.

“Why?” Jiang Feng asked, looking at the tablet.

Wheat’s futures fell for a few days. According to its previous inertia, they would not be able to earn money from it. In fact, it seemed like they would lose money. Today, wheat’s futures only rose by 1%. As for its previous increases, they were less than 1%. Conversely, its fall was very rapid.

“I checked the weather forecast, and it’s going to be very cold soon. At that time, the wheat harvest won’t be good. At that time, the price will gradually rise. When the time is right, we can take advantage of time and sell it to make a profit,” Zhang Qidong explained. Despite his words, he was slightly worried. After all, weather forecasts were not 100% accurate. However, there were already signs that the weather was turning colder so money could still be made.

Jiang Feng thought for a moment and said, “Let me have a look at the overall chart for the futures.”

Since there was going to be a cold wave soon, perhaps, there were other investments to be made apart from wheat’s futures.

“I’ll bring it up for you,” Song Yaozhong said hastily as he brought up the chart for futures. He was curious about what Jiang Feng was going to do. They had already bought the futures for wheat. What else was there to do?

Zhang Qidong suddenly grew nervous. He had seen Jiang Feng’s ability. Previously, Jiang Feng had made a big move with Pork Inc., he wondered if Jiang Feng was going to make another big move. He also wondered how Jiang Feng was going to deal with wheat’s futures.

Lin Miaoxue was also curious. She watched from the side silently, feeling like he was going to surprise her again.

Jiang Feng looked at the futures of soybeans.

On April 11th, soybeans increased by 1.44%

On April 20th, soybeans decreased by 1.22%

On May 30th, soybeans decreased by 1.13%

The fluctuations were all over the place and difficult to grasp. However, since there would be a cold wave, it would likely rise sharply. If crop production was reduced, then metal would rise as well.

An idea appeared in Jiang Feng’s mind, and he said with a smile, “Invest in soybean and metal’s futures. Operate on both short-term and long-term with metal’s futures. Hold wheat and soybeans before finding a suitable time to sell.”

Zhang Qidong was pleasantly surprised. He should have known that Jiang Feng would not only earn him thrice the amount of money, but also come up with new suggestions like investing in metal’s futures. As expected, Jiang Feng was truly resourceful and impressive. Fortunately, he reported his work to Jiang Feng. Otherwise, he would miss out on such a good opportunity to make money. With this, the company would have more funds, which would make it easier to deal with Luo Yuchang later.

Song Yaozhong’s eyes were bright as he looked at Jiang Feng. He could study this exchange alone for many years.

…

Two days later.

Jiang Feng’s second uncle and Sang Yan found the owner and completed the relevant investigation and confirmation. Today was the day of the formal negotiation.

Jiang Feng had given his second uncle the authority to deal with this matter. He felt secretly emotional and anxious at the same time.

Indeed, Jiang Feng’s second uncle and Sang Yan were veterans in this industry. They found the owner so quickly. He prayed that nothing would happen.

In the afternoon, he received a call from his second uncle. His second uncle was very excited as he told him that the matter had been dealt with perfectly.

With this, Jiang Feng finally calmed down. The plot of land had been bought, and the other party was very happy with the deal.

Jiang Feng felt much more relaxed as he thought about everything. All the previous preparations were considered part of the final stage. It would not be long before they had to go against Kerry Financial Company.

Lin Miaoxue had seen through Kerry Financial Company’s previous movements and made them 20 million. Based on the previous situation and her words, Luo Yuchang should be able to make a profit soon. From the looks of it, it was almost time for Luo Yuchang to close his net.
