Chapter 729: Chapter 729: Humiliation at the Door
Several billion isn’t a small amount; it at least drained all the funds from those people. However, compared to the immense profits from swallowing up Century Group, this sum was just a drop in the bucket.
"Okay, I’ll have someone transfer the money to you later."
The people present weren’t afraid that Dong Xing would abscond with the money. They all mingled in these circles; everyone knew everyone else’s background.
Moreover, the Dong Family stood behind Dong Xing. The Dong Family was, after all, one of the Eight Families. They wouldn’t dare to scam them.
Humph.
Stock market.
After Sofia’s relentless dumping, the price limit finally loosened. By the close of the afternoon, several of Century’s stocks had plummeted, dropping from the upper limit to the lower limit.
And on that day, it left all those who had bought stocks feeling nervous, somewhat unable to comprehend this move.
In the blink of an eye, it was Friday.
Dong Xing personally went to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, taking charge himself.
As soon as the stock market opened, Dong Xing, full of vigor, instructed his subordinates to start buying shares. They bought as much as sellers offered, displaying a voracious attitude. Less than ten minutes after the market opened, the stocks that had hit the lower limit yesterday were rapidly climbing.
"It’s up, it’s up again."
"I just sold mine, how did it rise so quickly?"
"Haha, what did I tell you? This is intentionally manipulated by the market master, just to make you indecisive people leave."
Inside the Shanghai Stock Exchange, some rejoiced while others worried. Watching these stocks approach the upper limit again, Sofia in another major brokerage room coldly issued an order.
"Sell."
"Mr. Dong, the sellers have entered the market, and the opponent has started to sell off massively again."
"Eat it all, I want to see how much they can offload." Dong Xing was well prepared for this situation and was naturally fearless. Seeing Dong Xing so resolute, the operator hesitated no more and began buying aggressively.
Instantly, a back-and-forth battle began in the stock market. For Dong Xing, the current stock price was far from reflecting Century’s market value. No matter how much he bought, it wasn’t a loss, especially compared to taking control of Century Group; this money was nothing.
Moreover, he had calculated Li Feng’s critical point. The opponent couldn’t indefinitely sell off stocks, or they would lose stability in their position as chairman. Once that position changed hands, Century Group would no longer be up to them.
By then, the opponent would amount to nothing.
At the same time, Li Feng also showed up at the Shanghai Stock Exchange and entered the major brokerage room booked by Sofia, where several operators were continuously busy.
"Master."
Sofia walked up affectionately as she saw Li Feng enter.
"How much has been sold?"
"Right now, at least twenty billion worth of stocks have been sold. The opponent has been defending the stocks continuously. It looks just like Master predicted; they have fallen into the trap."
Sofia squinted her crescent eyes at Li Feng, who hummed a response, "Don’t push too hard in the morning. Just keep it tangled. I estimate they can only put forth a maximum of thirty to fifty billion in cash flow. Any more and they might not be able to sustain it."
"What about in the afternoon?"
"Heh, the opponent will have another fifty billion entering in the afternoon. Just proceed as planned, and by all means, before the market closes today, let’s have the stocks locked at the upper limit."
"Okay."
Sofia nodded obediently.
"Dong Xing, our people found Li Feng."
"Where did they find him?"
"Right in the trading room next to ours."
"Our neighbor?"
On hearing this, Dong Xing looked at the person speaking, impressed by the audacity of someone named Li—setting up a trading room right next to theirs.
"Interesting." Dong Xing immediately stood up and walked outside, his bodyguard quickly following. Soon, they arrived at the nearby trading room.
The bodyguard pushed the door open and Dong Xing walked in, spotting Li Feng immediately, then his gaze landed on Sofia standing next to Li Feng.
Quite the blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty.
Her figure, even more curvaceous than the secretary in his office.
"Li Feng, we meet again."
Dong Xing, hand in his pocket, swept a disdainful look over Li Feng. Li Feng looked up and said, "Yeah, I really didn’t want to see your face, yet here you always are, quite annoying really."
Dong Xing’s eyelid twitched, and he looked coldly at Li Feng.
"Hmph, the feeling is mutual, but I think you’ll be rolling out of Sea City soon, and then, out of sight, out of mind."
"You think your little tricks can force me out of Sea City?"
"Ha, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. All the movement in the stock market these past few days, that was you trying to crash the stock of Century, trapping me in a tough spot. You’re underestimating Li Feng."
"You and your purchases of those small shareholders’ stocks, trying to crash the market. Unfortunately, you lack real guts, trying to cleverly manipulate things without any losses, even hoping to turn a profit."
"You played a nice game, but unfortunately, had you not overplayed your hand, I might not have been able to hold my ground. These past few days, I’ve prepared quite an arsenal; I’m looking forward to seeing how long you can last."
Li Feng retorted coldly, and Dong Xing smirked, "Li Feng, you think you’re really smart?"
"Unfortunately, petty cleverness can never win the day. Let me tell you, in this world, only power matters. Relying on your petty cleverness, you’ll still end up defeated."
"I’ll show you the kind of opponent you’re facing. Crushing you would be no more significant to me than crushing an ant."
Dong Xing, still domineering, knew Li Feng had pulled in some people from the Jin City Circle, but he had also contacted them. As he had anticipated, they all sat back and watched the drama unfold.
Really expecting them to shell out real money to help Li Feng? Highly unlikely, and Dong Xing had already promised, no matter the outcome, to share a part with those in the Jin City Circle, not leaving them empty-handed.
So, chances were, people from the Jin City Circle would not take risks for someone like Li Feng.
Over these past two days, Li Feng had played all the cards he had, but Dong Xing had the backing of a major collective.
"Ha, is spouting words useful? It’s still unknown who will lose or win."
Li Feng countered, staring back at Dong Xing.
Conversation faltered.
Dong Xing, tired of talking, looked at Sofia next to Li Feng: "Ha, you’re nothing special, but the women around you aren’t bad. Hey, once you’re out of Sea City, I’ll take good care of her."
Dong Xing gave Sofia a lewd smile, then turned around, laughing boisterously, and left with his bodyguard.
"Master, that guy is quite annoying."
"Let him be smug for a few more days."
Li Feng watched Dong Xing leaving, curling his lips in a disdainful smile: "I’ll make him cry."
