Section 90 Extreme

The will of heaven seemed to have not agreed with Shirley's decision. Because in just one day, the newly invested 50,000 gold Oli was exhausted. The price of fur futures not only did not rise, but fell a little.

This time, it was not a subordinate who came to inform the news, because Shirley herself stayed very close to the Shuangma Chamber of Commerce’s warehouse, and any price fluctuations can be found out at the first time.

On this day, the fur price tag of the Shuangma Chamber of Commerce was like a windmill and kept turning. The price changed hundreds of times in a day. Anyone - even if he didn't know how to buy and sell - could understand from the frequent changes in prices that this was a fierce tug-of-war.

"Their betting method has changed a lot today." The subordinate who was in charge of futures orders - actually a temporary staff member invited by Shirley from Wallonia - reported. "Yesterday they smashed the market with all their might, but today they have changed a lot, becoming repeated trials with small shares of funds. If I estimate correctly, this is also a side evidence that the other party's funds are almost exhausted."

Shirley nodded. Ashu Rufat should have no money, but on the other hand, her funds are not much.

"How much do you think he bets today?"

"At least it will not be lower than our investment." The subordinate reported. "But... we did miscalculate the amount of funds our opponents have. Now it is certain that the short side should have invested 200,000 Jin Oli in this futures trading."

"But Eshu Rufate can't have so much money!" Shirley said.

"Miss Shirley, can you be sure of this?"

"He is not a local, so the money he brings can only be transferred through the chamber of commerce." Shirley added. If 200,000 gold ore is carried with him, if it is gold coins, then he has to drive a heavy truck and pull it by four horses - even if it is all banknotes, he has to carry a super big pocket with him.

And all the information points out that when Ashu Rufate fell?

??When the fan was sent to the manor, he had nothing to do, at least not carrying anything eye-catching. It is true that only this is logical. Perhaps a rich man would have several thousand gold ore for squandering, but he would never be so stupid that he would carry 200,000 gold ore with him.

"Indeed, 200,000 gold Oli is a 'knot', which is an unwritten practice that is common to all chambers of commerce. Single funds dispatched above this number will be listed separately, while funds lower than this number will be mixed together for mobilization." The subordinate agreed. "But is there a possibility that he will divide his property into several transactions and then dispatch it?"

"Impossible." Shirley replied, "What's the special meaning of doing this? His source of money is not correct? Oh, as long as he is not a fugitive wanted by the state, he doesn't need to use this method at all. There is no such fugitive in the entire human world." She pondered for a moment, "Did we ignore something? Has he converted his real estate mortgage into cash for this futures transaction? Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the total amount of funds he has now! But he didn't leave here..."

"Miss Shirley, in terms of operation, this is not a special problem. He did not leave himself, but he could convert the land deed into funds by signing a power of attorney. These funds can be dispatched to the local area through the local chamber of commerce between Wallonia and Brassian. Then Ashu Rufate can conduct futures trading at the Shuangma Chamber of Commerce with a certificate of funding issued by a certain chamber of commerce."

"But even if he mortgaged all the real estate, it's still not enough." Shirley thought, trying to find a suitable logic in her mind to explain this phenomenon.

"Wait, Miss Shirley, I suddenly thought of a possibility."

“What is possible?”

"Ash Rufate is a local squire noble, right?"

"Yes, and since he won the Jockey Club, he has become a popular local celebrity."

"Is it possible for him to convince a group of friends...a group of local squire and nobles to join his futures deal?"

Shirley pondered for a moment. "This persuasion work is too difficult, and it takes too much time to convince so many people..."

"No, Miss Shirley, if this is an attempt to "persuasion", it will naturally be difficult. But if he gives evidence and presents the fact that he has nearly 200,000 Jin Oly, then this is not persuasion, but becomes a chance to make a fortune with his friends. If we weren't here to do it behind the scenes, who would think that he would lose after having so much money? This futures speculation is a game where those who have more money win."

"You're right!" Shirley replied. Damn, I actually ignored this possibility! That's right, when you take out 200,000 gold Oli as the confidence to trade futures, it's not too difficult to convince someone to invest. It's also easy to find a friend to raise funds for you.

How many friends does Ashu Rufat have to join this game?! Damn, she actually ignored the surveillance of him before the futures trading began.

But Shirley did not express her thoughts at all. Half of this was due to her veil, because the veil covered most of her expressions. She had to re-estimate the strength of the enemy immediately!

...

"These are good friends of the Griffin twins, some people who have a lot of contact with Ashu Rufat himself, as well as some people who are close to Countess Marianne. These people may join his camp."

Just by the candlelight, you can see a whole row of names listed on the list. Each person's name is listed behind. This number is not the property of these people, but just their "free money". As we all know, most of the property of the gentry and nobles is land, shares, etc. It is impossible for them to mortgage all their wealth to participate in this futures gambling. In other words, the funds they invested in futures trading will not exceed their total cash. It is also a loss that Braxi's city is a small place, and the local gentry and nobles have only a few hundred people in total, and they can still be investigated in a short time.

Just looking at a number is actually nothing, but it adds up to a considerable number.

"This man named Ess is so rich?" Shirley couldn't help frowning when she saw the number after one of the names.

"She is a widow, but she has a lot of assets. She has a lot of spare money because her husband left her a lot of property."

Shirley did not continue to speak, but added the above numbers again. The total numbers were quite amazing.

"If all of these people join - of course this is just theoretically and actually impossible - maybe Ashu Rufate still has about 50,000 Jin Oli... They should have 'borrowed' to lend the money to Ashu Rufate."

Shirley bit her lip. Unexpectedly, she still underestimated her opponent in the end. But she had already walked too far and could not stop anymore, so she said, "Fifty thousand! It's okay! It's just 50,000, not beyond our ability yet!"

She gritted her teeth and leaned against her desk to start writing. A minute later, she issued a note proof, authorizing the funding quota of 50,000 Jin Oli, the subordinate who was responsible for operating futures! Tomorrow she invested another 50,000 to enter the bet, and see which Ash Rufate had any tricks!

...

The next day, the price of fur was like a roller coaster. This day, the frequent ups and downs of yesterday did not reappear, but it was still the same, and it became astonishing. Sometimes it was going straight up to the blue sky and the bright moon, and sometimes it was flying down three thousand feet. There were not only a small group of people watching the changes in the price of fur in the warehouse. Even the most experienced staff in the Shuangma Chamber of Commerce were amazed and threatened that they had never encountered such a fierce battle in their entire life.

However, by the end of today's futures trading, the price of fur was still a little lower than when it opened in the morning.

Shirley had long lost the mentality of winning before. Although she remained calm on the surface, listened carefully to every change in fur price, and guessed Ash Rufate's mood from it. But in fact, she herself had become less calm. More than once, she wanted to end this tormenting tug-of-war and ordered her subordinates to invest a lot of money in one breath, but in the end she still controlled herself with reason.

"The other party seemed very impatient and impulsive today..." While listening to the report from her subordinates, she gently rubbed her forehead. Today's 50,000 gold ore was not used up, leaving about 10,000. Looking at the remaining amount and looking at the price of fur that was slightly beaten down, she didn't know whether she had won or lost today.

"...The operation is not as good as the war of attrition that small stocks of funds were invested in yesterday, but instead attempts to carry out concentrated attacks. This kind of action usually occurs to those operators who are extremely afraid and impatient in their hearts." The experienced subordinate of futures did not notice Shirley's emotions, so he continued to express his views happily there. "I guess, in his opinion, what he invested is no longer money, but his own blood and flesh. The pain, despair, surprise and fear... He would probably keep changing between heaven and hell on this day."

"You mean his funds are over?" Shirley asked.

"I think so." The subordinate replied. "Human habits are fixed - unless they are playing, what kind of reactions they make means what kind of mental state he is in. Yesterday he was still tempted a little bit and had enough patience to fight me, but today he has lost this patience. This is the most obvious evidence of his emotional changes."

"Is that so good?" Shirley stopped rubbing her aching temple and said.

"Miss Shirley, I think the remaining money he has will not exceed 10,000... As long as I give me another 50,000 Jin Oli tomorrow, I should be able to force him into a desperate situation." said the subordinate.

All the funds I have left, even the remaining ones today, are almost 50,000! Shirley actually wants to scold the anger in her heart fiercely, but she finally remained silent.

Except for herself, all her subordinates did not know her true financial strength.

"Let's talk about it tomorrow..." As soon as she said that, she heard a knock on the door like a storm.

"Come in!" With this sentence, a figure rushed in from outside the door. Shirley was stunned, and then she realized that the person who came in was actually Lyle.

"Aren't you responsible for keeping abreast of Ashu Rufat? What happened?"

"Just a while ago," even under the light, Lyle's face looked pale and haggard, but an indescribable ecstasy appeared on his face. "The twin sisters of the Griffin family left in the night and were said to have gone to Wallonia."

"Are you sure?"

"Very sure," replied Lyle. "I followed their carriages and confirmed that they had set foot on the road to Wallonia. They must have left at night to cover up their eyes!"

Sherry stood up. Although she tried her best to keep herself calm, even though her face was covered with a veil, even if the light was dim at this time, the joy in her eyes was too eye-catching.
