Chapter 204: Returning a Favor
"Who! Who the hell is messing with me behind the scenes!" Zhang Jun's veins bulged with anger. He fiercely raised his fist and smashed it hard into the computer LCD screen in front of him.
Only a loud "Bang—" was heard, and the fragile screen instantly shattered into pieces.
The investment department manager of Xingcheng Bank's face twitched slightly, then he lightly said to Luo Zhikai beside him: "Xiao Luo, take note, add an LCD screen to our compensation list."
"Okay." Luo Zhikai completely disregarded Zhang Jun's face, quickly grabbed pen and paper and recorded the investment department manager's words.
Zhang Jun merely gave Luo Zhikai a cold glance, did not continue his outburst, but shifted his gaze to the investment department manager. "Manager, can you help me find out who is deliberately causing trouble?"
The investment department manager had a technician review the stock situation of Xingcheng Heavy Industry. When the report came out, he couldn't help but frown. Then he asked Zhang Jun: "Have you offended someone from Dongjiang Securities?"
"Is it Zhuo Wenyuan?" Zhang Jun instantly turned fierce. "I indeed have some grudge against him!"
"That's right." The investment department manager immediately concluded: "Zhuo Wenyuan is deliberately raising the stock price to disgust you, luring you to buy back the stock. You've already been tricked once; don't act impulsively tomorrow."
Zhang Jun looked at the investment department manager unwillingly and said: "Do you have any means to counter him? I can add money!"
"Very difficult!" The investment department manager bluntly poured cold water on Zhang Jun: "You opened your account with them; they know your hand completely. How can you fight them?"
"I can go open an account at another securities firm."
"Boss Zhang, your father has already promised to withdraw the funds and use them for the International New City project. If you continue to operate in violation of the rules, we reserve the right to freeze your company's related assets."
Seeing the investment department manager's businesslike attitude, Zhang Jun could only leave the Xingcheng Bank in displeasure.
Not long after he left, Luo Zhikai used his own phone to tip off Chen Yang.
Upon receiving the message, Chen Yang immediately called Yexin.
"Yexin, please remind Zhuo Wenyuan to be careful; Zhang Jun might take revenge."
"Don't worry." Yexin said calmly: "I've already arranged people to watch him in the dark. If he dares to look for Zhuo Wenyuan, he'll end up keeping Zhang Peng company in prison."
"Then I won't bother you." Upon hearing that Yexin had already prepared, Chen Yang intended to end the call.
"Hmph, you made me lose a lot of money today; how should this debt be settled?" Yexin said through gritted teeth, her tone practically wishing to drag Chen Yang out of the phone and beat him up.
Chen Yang immediately retorted: "Yexin, you're wrong. What needed explaining, I already explained yesterday. What needed backing up, I have already backed up today. What else is there to be responsible for?"
Yexin spat and continued scolding: "That's not backing up; you're clearly bottom-fishing. After all our hard work for half a day, you kid took all the advantages!"
Chen Yang immediately held the phone far away from himself, deliberately putting on an act and lowering his voice to shout: "Yexin, what are you saying……my signal is bad……I can't hear you……"
He quickly hung up the phone and also pulled out the battery.
Chen Yang did this because he was actually afraid that Qi Yunxiang and the others would also come to complain like Yexin.
Although during the review they found that everyone had gradually bought back some stocks, as the first person to run away, he ultimately felt a bit guilty.
After Thursday's opening, Xingcheng Heavy Industry's stock hit the limit up again. It rose from 19.25 to 21.18. This price already exceeded Zhuo Wenyuan's cost.
Therefore, when Dongjiang Securities was selling off, Chen Yang remained on standby.
Chen Yang stayed still, and his loyal partner Qi Yunxiang only sold half of his position.
Meanwhile, Su Mingyue immediately sold all her two million shares at an average price of 20.75. She had no connection with Zhuo Wenyuan and no agreement, so she felt no psychological burden when selling ahead of time. This transaction also earned her another 9,435,000.
As for Yexin, Huang BaiMing, and Zhao Feiyang, they worried about causing a stampede like the previous morning, so they decided to watch and wait like Chen Yang.
After this round of selling, the stock price fell from the high of 21.18 down to 18.5.
At this price, Chen Yang could still profit, but he still didn't act. After the morning market closed, he called Luo Zhikai.
"Old Luo, isn't your bank preparing to sell off today?"
"Chen Yang, this time our manager also had no choice. He said to let you go first, and our bank will take responsibility for backing up."
"No need, you already tipped me off, didn't you? This settles it. My cost is low, you go ahead first!"
"Alright, I'll tell the manager."
After hanging up, Chen Yang directly turned off the computer. Then he went to the kitchen and made a stir-fried celery with meat and a stir-fried tomato with egg.
In Qingshui City, his daily life besides stock trading was taking care of Lin Wei's daily needs. This is much easier than being a beast of burden in his previous life.
After the meals were ready, Lin Wei also returned. Seeing Chen Yang's hard work, she immediately gave him a sweet hug.
"Husband, as a billionaire, you're actually making a little secretary cook for me—it's so unfair to you."
"If you feel uneasy about it, then starting tomorrow we'll just order takeout." Chen Yang wouldn't dare let Lin Wei into the kitchen—it's practically a death sentence, at least costing him ten years of life.
"No way!" Lin Wei coquettishly hooked her arms around Chen Yang's neck and said in a sweet voice: "How could takeout compare to the fragrant love meal made by your husband?"
"Then let's eat first, before the dishes get cold." Chen Yang gently pinched her straight jade nose, secretly sighing that the future county party secretary actually had such a gentle, water-like soft side.
Lin Wei went to wash her hands, then began eating. While eating, she told Chen Yang: "Husband, Secretary Zhang asked me to pass along a message: Zhang Group is preparing to transfer their real estate development project in Chengnan District, asking if you're interested."
Chen Yang guessed that Zhang Group wanted to quickly recoup funds to plug the hole in Xingcheng. If he got involved now, he would surely make a big profit. However, he truly had no interest in real estate development.
"Honey, why didn't Secretary Zhang look for Liu Shijie? He's the expert!"
Lin Wei said: "They've talked already. Because this project also needs to start immediately, Liu Shijie's side can't manage the cash flow."
"Then I'll find someone to talk with Mayor Kong!" Chen Yang suddenly realized that the financial investment company he partnered with Yexin, Huang BaiMing, and Zhao Feiyang could also undertake this business.
Meanwhile, Yexin's sister-in-law was already preparing to open a business in Xingcheng. If they could take over Zhang Group's project at this time, it would also be a good start for the new company.
