Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 351: Chapter 351: The True Hero Behind Strategic Planning

The Glittering Finance Tower is the financial center of Capital City, known as China’s Wall Street.

As the sky grew dark, Li Mubai yawned, staring at the stock market index, a smug smile spreading across his face.

Today, he had made another billion for the company.

Li Mubai, the chief trader at HuaShang Securities, was known in the industry as ”Ghost Hand Li.”

In high school, he entered the stock market with just a thousand yuan, and in less than a month, his assets astonishingly reached over a hundred thousand. A year later, he had amassed a million in assets.

Later, he was headhunted by HuaShang Securities and became a golden trader.

Since then, a legend was born in the stock market; whether the market rose or fell, Li Mubai was able to miraculously predict it in advance.

HuaShang Group’s ability to rise from an obscure small company to a leader in the securities industry over the years owes much to Li Mubai.

At the moment, Li Mubai rubbed his somewhat swollen head, his face etched with exhaustion.

Lately, he had been feeling an increasing shortage of Spiritual Energy inside his body, which was critical for his uncanny grasp of the stock market because of his supernatural ability.

Li Mubai possessed incredible computational skills, allowing him to extract precise information he needed from the vast ocean of the stock market, thus forecasting market trends and finding quality stocks. However, he had recently discovered that his energy was increasingly insufficient, feeling dizzy and swollen-headed after just over an hour of monitoring the market.

Sitting in his chair and having a smoke, Li Mubai left the office.

Just as he reached the doorway, a young man suddenly patted his shoulder.

”You’re Mu Bai, aren’t you?” Lin Chen asked with a smile.

”Who are you?” Li Mubai asked curiously, looking at the young man before him.

”My name is Lin Chen, a friend of Tan Long,” Lin Chen replied with a smile.

”Oh, a friend of Brother Tan’s. Need something from me?” Li Mubai asked curiously.

”Hmm, let’s go to a coffee shop and talk,” Lin Chen suggested with a smile.

Li Mubai nodded and followed Lin Chen into the coffee shop.

Lin Chen looked at Li Mubai with a beaming smile and said, ”I heard from Brother Tan that you’ve been troubled by headaches recently, right?”

Li Mubai rubbed his temples and replied helplessly, ”Yeah, I’ve been feeling low on energy and can’t seem to get my spirits up. Probably too tired.”

Lin Chen gave a faint smile. ”Your condition is likely due to an overuse of Spiritual Power, which has caused damage. If not treated promptly, your talent will fade away, bit by bit.”

”What?” Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Li Mubai’s face suddenly changed.

Li Mubai had already noticed that his computational accuracy was no longer what it used to be. He had even made some mistakes recently that caused some losses.

”Do you have a solution?” Li Mubai stared intently at Lin Chen.

”Of course, I do, otherwise I wouldn’t have come to find you,” Lin Chen said with a faint smile.

”How much do you want?” Li Mubai asked earnestly.

Lin Chen replied with a laugh, ”I don’t want money; I’ll give you money instead.”

Li Mubai was taken aback, looking at Lin Chen in confusion.

”Join our Starlight Company. I guarantee not only that your ability will not disappear, but it will be stronger than before. If you agree, this bottle of Spiritual Liquid is yours,” Lin Chen said, taking out a small bottle and placing it in front of Li Mubai.

”Spiritual Liquid!” Li Mubai’s eyes suddenly focused; such a thing wasn’t something that could be bought with money.

Lin Chen continued to smile and asked, ”What do you think?”

”Okay, I agree,” Mu Bai nodded.

He had already earned enough money, but what he couldn’t bear was the disappearance of his powers, so he couldn’t refuse the conditions Lin Chen offered.

”I’ll treat you tonight and start work tomorrow morning,” Lin Chen said with a smile on his face.

Tu Qiang possessed the Earth Escape technique, making him a natural scout. He had just sent news that the Zhou family had already gathered a large amount of capital to crash the market tomorrow when the Starlight Company goes public, planning to make it collapse on the very first day.

That’s why he had approached Mu Bai; he wanted to give Zhou Batian a big surprise.

At the headquarters of Starlight Group, Xue Ying stared intently at the stock market, feeling a bit nervous.

Today was the day Starlight Group went public, but what worried Xue Ying was that the market had been in the red all day, and the stocks of Starlight Group were also continuously in the red.

”Boss, our stocks are being aggressively suppressed by unexplained capital,” the secretary, Xiaolan, reported with a frown to Xue Ying.

”Flush all our capital into the market,” Xue Ying said with a grim expression.

”Boss, we’ve already used up all our capital, we have no more money to spend,” Xiaolan said with a troubled expression.

”What!” Xue Ying clenched her teeth in frustration, who on earth was it, so hell-bent on suppressing our stock.

At the Zhou residence, Zhou Batian puffed on a cigar, his eyes glued to the large screen with a look of smug satisfaction.

”Hmph, a little nobody from a village trying to play the stock market, I’ll play him to death,” Zhou Batian said coldly.

”Boss, their stock price is plummeting. I’m afraid they can’t hold on much longer,” a young man wearing glasses chuckled beside Zhou Batian.

”Throw in the last sum of money, I want to see Starlight Group lying on the circuit breaker unable to get up again,” said Zhou Batian with a ferocious look on his face.

At this moment, the Starlight Group was in utter disarray, its stock on the first day being suppressed right down to the circuit breaker, dealing a devastating blow to the company.

”It’s over, all over, I’ve messed up,” Tears streamed down Xue Ying’s cheeks uncontrollably, the Starlight Group that she had painstakingly built was beaten down just as it was getting started, and she couldn’t accept it.

Just then, Lin Chen strolled in from outside.

Upon seeing Lin Chen, Xue Ying felt a pang of guilt: ”Lin Chen, I’m sorry, I’ve screwed up.”

Lin Chen, looking at Xue Ying’s tearful appearance, smiled lightly, ”Who said you screwed up? You’ve done quite well!”

”What are you talking about?” Xue Ying looked at Lin Chen with a puzzled face, the stocks were already at the circuit breaker, how was that not bad?

”Lin Chen, you don’t have to comfort me, I know I’ve already lost,” said Xue Ying bitterly shaking her head.

Lin Chen patted Xue Ying’s shoulder: ”You’ve forgotten, I’ve told you, no matter what, you have me behind you, I am your strong support.”

Just then, suddenly, a chorus of gasps came from the office area: ”It’s going up, it’s going up, my god, the stocks are rising from the circuit breaker!”

”Damn, how is that possible, it’s skyrocketing, holy cow, it’s hit the circuit breaker in less than three minutes,” cries of cheer erupted in the office area.

”How can this be possible?” Xue Ying ran to the office area and was dumbfounded looking at the trajectory on the screen that was climbing like a straight red line.

Xue Ying’s gaze suddenly turned towards Lin Chen, and without caring that she was in the office area, she rushed to Lin Chen and hugged him tightly, pounding on his chest with her little fists.

”You jerk, you big jerk,” Xue Ying wept with joy.

And the executives of Starlight Group, watching this scene, smiled knowingly and even gave Lin Chen a warm round of applause.

In their hearts, the chairman of Starlight Group was nothing but a puppet in name, and there were even rumors that Lin Chen was a kept man by Xue Ying.

But today, they finally saw the formidable strength of this behind-the-scenes chairman. In a moment when the company was in dire straits, he stepped in and turned the tide, lifting Starlight Group from hell straight to heaven.

This is what a real man is, a true hero in command and strategy.
