Meanwhile, Song Yaozhong had taken Jiang Feng’s card and run out of the office. His mind was in a daze. What had happened in the office just now was too shocking for him. Running into the finance room, Song Yaozhong sat on a chair in a daze for a few seconds. He then couldn’t help but slap himself. He still couldn’t believe it.

Jiang Feng, an employee who had worked at the company for more than half a year, was actually sitting in the boss’ seat! Besides, Zhang Qidong had even called him Director Jiang and asked him to report everything to Jiang Feng! This was really unbelievable.

‘Could Jiang Feng be related to Director Zhang?’

Song Yaozhong couldn’t help thinking of this. Since Jiang Feng had done this, it could only mean that Zhang Qidong and Jiang Feng’s relationship was not ordinary. Now was the time for desperate measures, so anything could happen!

‘Could Jiang Feng be backed up by a financial group? Has he been pretending to be a pig for more than half a year so he could eat a tiger?’ Upon thinking of this, Song Yaozhong felt that his guess was correct. Zhang Qidong was now completely at his wit’s end. It was very likely that he had no way out, which was why he had turned to Jiang Feng for help. Or rather, Jiang Feng had taken the opportunity to take over the company and push Zhang Qidong out of his position as the boss.

!!

As Song Yaozhong thought about it, the scene he had witnessed just now could not help appearing in his mind. The tea that Zhang Qidong had poured for Jiang Feng had been Da Hong Pao, and the cigarette pack on the table had been an out-of-print Marlboro pack. There was also the cautious manner in which he had spoken, as well as Jiang Feng’s strangely calm expression.

‘I’m afraid that’s really the case!’

Song Yaozhong’s expression was a little frightened. He was already extremely certain of his guess. All of this had exceeded his expectations, but Zhang Qidong and Jiang Feng were definitely related. Even their identities and status had changed! Upon thinking of this, Song Yaozhong paused his train of thought. He immediately picked up Jiang Feng’s bank card and inserted it into the machine.

He still had extremely urgent things to do. As the bank card was inserted into the machine, the computer immediately displayed the relevant information. Song Yaozhong entered the password provided by Jiang Feng and the balance appeared in front of his eyes in a second. As he looked at the string of zeros in it, Song Yaozhong was so shocked that his breathing became a little hurried.

That was a whole 100 million. 100 million in cash! This was definitely a huge sum in his eyes. Even though he had to deal with more than 100 million a month, that did not stop him from being shocked! As a financial investment professional, he knew very well that 100 million was not an amount that could be easily withdrawn.

A listed company with a stock value of more than 10 billion usually had a cash flow of only 300 to 500 million. 100 million was extremely important to them. Not to mention that a small company like theirs only had 10 million in cash, and they still had to operate like that from time to time. 100 million in cash was definitely a huge sum in their eyes.

But when he recalled the scene he had witnessed just now, he realized that Jiang Feng’s expression hadn’t changed at all when he had thrown the card to him. That indifferent look of his had made it seem as if he didn’t care about the 100 million at all. Upon thinking of this, Song Yaozhong was even more shocked. At the same time, he felt more and more convinced that Jiang Feng was a young master of some big family with a financial group behind him. Only someone like that would not care about 100 million or 200 million!

While awe filled his heart, Song Yaozhong quickly opened the company account. He looked at the falling price of pork and the funds that were about to be liquidated. Without any hesitation, he immediately took a million dollars from his card. The timely replenishment allowed them to rise again. With this one million dollars, he could hold on for at least another half an hour!

After he resolved the crisis in front of him, Song Yaozhong’s gaze fell on the remaining 99 million dollars in the card. He looked at this unbelievable amount of money, then at the price of pork, which continued to fall, and hesitated. Jiang Feng had ordered him to put all his money into pork and then increase the leverage ten times. But given the situation, it would probably take him less than ten minutes to do this, and then everything would be over!

Song Yaozhong, who had always been decisive, was at a loss at that moment. He knew that once he chose to invest, if the price continued to fall, ten minutes later, the entire 100 million yuan, including all the money he’d had before, would be completely gone. However, this was Jiang Feng’s money, and that was an order given by Jiang Feng. He was just an employee. He had no right not to carry it out. Unfortunately, his conscience and his trust in Jiang Feng and Zhang Qidong’s decision-making made him feel worried.

‘What should I do?’ Song Yaozhong sat in front of the computer and looked at the balance, then looked at the chart again. He was extremely conflicted! This was the biggest decision he had made in decades. He sat in his seat, feeling conflicted for a long time. In the end, Song Yaozhong raised his head and made up his mind, using all his strength.

His fingers tapped on the keyboard, and he quickly invested the 99 million yuan. All of it was invested in pork, and at the same time, he called the agency and immediately activated the leverage tenfold. A minute later, Song Yaozhong sat on the chair and heaved a sigh of relief. He had never felt so weak before.

Now, he felt as if he had fought a war, and his entire body was exhausted. After he remained paralyzed on the chair for more than ten seconds, his nerves tensed up again. He sat up with a whoosh and stared straight at the computer. When he looked at the green line on the screen, his heart tightened!

A faint line! Another drop! Once again, there was a declining trend! Oh-oh!

As the price dropped, Song Yaozhong’s forehead kept oozing sweat. His eyes swept across the screen, and there was only 30,000 yuan left in the margin. His heart was completely filled with fear. With this small amount of money, he could at most hold on for half a minute! If it kept falling after half a minute, then the organization would instantly close and everything would be lost!

At that moment, Song Yaozhong’s heart was already beginning to show signs of despair. As time passed, the despair grew stronger.

“It’s… over!” Song Yaozhong’s lips trembled as he squeezed out these two words. The deposit had fallen to only 20,000 yuan. The despair in his heart couldn’t be any more intense! When he looked at the number, which had fallen to 10,000 yuan a few seconds later, Song Yaozhong couldn’t hold back anymore.

“I shouldn’t have listened to him!” he cried out in grief. He collapsed on the chair, feeling completely desperate. His face was as pale as death, as if he had already lost everything. Despite his despair, though, his tense nerves relaxed and vague memories from 15 years ago began to appear in his mind.

15 years ago, he had met Zhang Qidong after getting fired by his company. Just like that, the two of them had set off on the road of entrepreneurship in a daze. He remembered that the first time they had invested in pork and made a huge profit, the two of them had drunk all night.

A few years later, they had officially set up this company, and it had been a joyous occasion. The two of them had felt ambitious, and it was the first time they had received tens of millions of big orders, rented a building, and looked forward to the future. Beautiful scenes flashed in front of his eyes, and Song Yaozhong’s eyes couldn’t help getting a little moist. Then, two streams of hot tears gushed out.

He was really sad from the bottom of his heart. He had put a lot of effort into this company, but he still couldn’t escape today!

Feeling complete despair, Song Yaozhong collapsed in his chair for a long time. Then, doubt filled his heart.

‘Why hasn’t the agency come to inform me of the liquidation?!’ Song Yaozhong wiped away his tears and sat up from his chair. What he saw made his jaw drop in shock!

He saw the price of pork on the computer rising rapidly. While he had been sad for a few minutes, the price of pork had risen by 50 cents! This rise had already exceeded his expectations and understanding. It was so fast that it could make one’s hair stand on end!

“It’s moving! It’s moving!” Song Yaozhong was dumbfounded for a long time before he finally reacted. He looked at the price of pork flying wildly in front of him, jumped up from his chair, and cried out!
