432 Fellow villagers, don't leave, it's a technical adjustment.

Magic City, Xitan Palace!

Wang Shaojun was holding his phone, scrolling through stock market topics.

In the current market, panic has already begun to spread.

Even the listed groups under Heavenly Palace Group were the same, experiencing a rare decline.

But relatively speaking, the magnitude of the decline was not very large.

But in everyone's eyes, this was already a terrifying thing; after all, which one of them wasn't a behemoth, and they even had Heavenly Palace Group as their backing.

Even so... they still turned green!

Some people even couldn't withstand the pressure and began to reduce their holdings.

However, for Wang Shaojun, this was just an inconsequential matter; if he wanted them to rise back up, it would only take a single word.

"Good things shouldn't be eaten by the same group of people, right? It's fine to change people."

"Butler Wei, inform Zhongzhou to follow this downward trend until the market closes today."

"Wait for my notice tomorrow to go all-out shorting Sakura Country."

"Yes, Young Master!"

At the same time, TikTok news was flying everywhere.

《According to reports, the one heavily shorting Mian-A is a small financial group from Sakura Country.》

Colossus Group also seems to be involved; we hereby call on everyone that protecting our property is everyone's responsibility.》

"Financial group? I was wondering how they dared to short us; so it's a Japanese financial group."

"That's not right, why would a behemoth like Colossus Group also short us? Did we offend them somehow?"

"Naive. This is a game of interests; as long as it's profitable, they don't care who you are."

"Speaking of which, it's already at this point, why hasn't Brother Jun acted yet? I still want to fight side-by-side with Brother Jun."

"Damn, I forgot until you mentioned it; Brother Jun actually hasn't made a move."

"In my opinion, Brother Jun is too busy taking care of himself right now. Look at Yuanyang Group; it's truly rare to see it actually falling, and it's almost trending towards five points now."

"Terrifying. Could it be that even Brother Jun is helpless?"

"Bullshit, how is that possible? That's the Lord of Tiangong. Tiangong Capital hasn't moved yet. I feel like Brother Jun is charging up some ultimate move; the longer the wind-up, the wider the area of effect."

Wangchuan Returns to the Sea Chat Group!

Wangchuan: "Yuanyang Group has dropped so much, do you guys have any thoughts?"

Minotaur: "You're not thinking of going in now, are you? We still don't know Brother Jun's thoughts, and Tiangong Capital doesn't seem to have any intention of defending the stock price at all."

Yandere Queen: "When things are abnormal, there must be something fishy. What on earth is Brother Jun plotting?"

Lazy Great King: "Anyway, I trust Brother Jun 100%. If he's not defending it, there must be a reason. Why don't we buy Yuanyang Group's stock? I feel like it will rebound soon."

Wangchuan: "I'm thinking the same, but we can't buy all in; we need to keep some funds to handle the upcoming changes."

Another thing that puzzles me: according to Brother Jun's style, with Sakura Country shorting so heavily that even Yuanyang Group couldn't escape unscathed, he hasn't reacted at all. This leaves me completely baffled."

Lazy Great King: "Isn't this normal? Given Heavenly Palace Group's scale, it's like an ant biting you—would you have an emotional reaction? You'd definitely just reach out and crush them."

Wangchuan looked at the message from Lazy Great King and his mind suddenly cleared.

Reach out and crush them?

Wall Street had previously mobilized massive funds, but they haven't made a move yet.

Given the style of those wolves, they certainly wouldn't settle for just the scraps.

Looking at it this way, their target is definitely not Mian-A.

With Sakura Country being so provocative, Brother Jun certainly won't let it slide.

Wangchuan: "Our opportunity has come. I have a strong premonition that Brother Jun might be about to move against Sakura Country. Although I don't know when, it's definitely right to prepare first."

Let's use ten million to short Sakura Country first as a starting position, and use the rest of the funds to buy Yuanyang Group.

When Brother Jun acts, Yuanyang Group's stock price will definitely skyrocket, and we can cash out then."

Lazy Great King: "The best defense is a good offense. Exactly. Perhaps that's the answer to why Brother Jun hasn't reacted yet—he's making preparations."

Minotaur: "Let's do it. We'll go with what the boss said."

Yandere Queen: "This is indeed feasible. I have no objections."

Gentle Bulldozer: "I agree,"

Wangchuan: "OK, since no one has objections, let's start. There's less than half an hour until the market closes."

To be safe, let's not use leverage to short Sakura Country yet; we'll wait until Brother Jun's movements are clear. For Yuanyang Group, let's be a bit more adventurous and go long with double leverage.

It's already down six points. In half an hour, it won't drop much further. It all depends on tomorrow."

No sooner said than done; without the slightest hesitation, the six of them didn't have any disagreements.

Half an hour was enough for them to throw out those thirty-plus million.

...

Half an hour later, which was exactly 3:00 PM!

The market seemed to return to calm, because... it had already closed.

Looking at the terrible index, investors who still held positions couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Whew~ Finally, it finally stopped falling."

"Damn it, that's called the market closing."

"Damn, you should've said so earlier. But anyway, finally no one can steal my money. A full position hitting the limit down—do you know what that feels like?"

"Don't say it. If you keep talking, I'll go straight to shorting real estate."

"Ah, isn't it called elbow-striking the ground?"

"Bullshit, it's clearly going downstairs to buy cigarettes—the kind where you don't use the stairs or the elevator."

"I hope for better luck tomorrow. If today's market continues, I'll really have to short the residential compound."

"Hard to say. It was still falling before the close; tomorrow will likely still be 'underwater'."

"Brothers, major intel. There's one piece of good news and one piece of bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"Bitter first, then sweet. Let's hear the bad news first."

"Hehe, the bad news is that Mian-A will continue to crash tomorrow."

"And the good news?"

"The good news is... I cleared my position yesterday, hehe!"

"Brother, as shown in the picture~"
