Chapter 220: Brother Feng, You Don’t Have Superpowers, Do You?

Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Brother Feng, You Don’t Have Superpowers, Do You?

「When Monday arrived.」

Lin Feng, naturally on a United States schedule, didn’t arrive at the office until after 9 PM.

Around 8 PM, Yang Qiniang, Jiang Chao, and Cao Ming were already lying in wait in Lin Feng’s office.

"We’re here to learn again!"

As soon as Lin Feng walked in, Yang Qiniang was the first to speak.

Lin Feng’s expression didn’t change, but his gaze swept across the three of them.

"Jiang Chao, Cao Ming, I recall saying when I let you intern at the company that I wouldn’t be giving you any special treatment."

Lin Feng’s tone was so serious that for a moment, the three of them were a little intimidated.

But Cao Ming’s mind worked fast.

He immediately retorted, "According to official work hours, we’ve long since clocked out. This is our personal time."

"And we didn’t use any back doors; we came in through the front door of the office!"

Jiang Chao, standing beside him, chimed in.

Lin Feng’s expression softened. He gave each of them a rap on the head, leaving their scalps red.

"Is all your assigned work finished?"

"If your work isn’t done, I won’t be paying you!"

Yang Qiniang was sitting on the sofa, hugging a throw pillow.

"These two have been working hard enough. They’ve already compiled all the information on the recent interns."

"It’ll probably be in your inbox by tomorrow."

Yang Qiniang was indirectly praising Jiang Chao and Cao Ming.

The two of them weren’t shy about it, wearing proud expressions.

"After watching you work last time, Brother Feng, I couldn’t sleep all night!"

An admiring look appeared on Jiang Chao’s face.

Cao Ming, beside him, nodded repeatedly.

"That feeling was so thrilling, even better than winning a video game."

"That’s why we’re back today!"

"Don’t worry, even if we pull an all-nighter, it won’t affect our work tomorrow!"

Cao Ming and Jiang Chao had now fully adapted to the life of corporate drones.

Seeing the pleading in their eyes...

Lin Feng hadn’t intended to kick them out from the start.

"Watch if you want, but I think the market has been pretty sluggish lately."

"The situation today probably won’t be great!"

Lin Feng was just giving the three of them a heads-up.

If they were hoping to see something as exciting as last time...

...today probably wouldn’t be able to satisfy them.

After all, the overall stock market trend today was sluggish.

Lin Feng was just trying to find a few stocks that were slightly in the green among all the poor performers.

"The market has been sluggish for a long time now."

Speaking of which, Yang Qiniang nodded.

Before, when Lin Feng had planned to put his funds into the United States market, Yang Qiniang had warned him.

The entire United States stock market had been performing poorly for a while.

In fact, if you were being serious, it wasn’t a good time to invest at all.

Some major institutions had their money tied up in it.

But even in a market like this, Lin Feng had managed to rake in tens of millions last time.

This also struck Yang Qiniang as incredibly strange.

When the market opened today...

...it was basically a sea of red.

Lin Feng also held off on making a move.

Lin Feng currently had his original principal of 700 million, plus the 100 million in profit from the last session.

A total of 800 million in funds at his disposal.

But Yang Qiniang and the others could also see that the current market was not at all suitable for entry.

The downward trend of these stocks was a bit frightening.

Cao Ming even saw one stock that had already dropped seven percent.

And the market had only been open for ten minutes.

"This situation today is terrible!"

"I think in a situation like this, it’s better not to make any rash moves..."

"We could wait and see this afternoon."

Jiang Chao said, swallowing hard.

The red lines of these stocks were truly unsettling to look at.

If they put money in now...

...it was very likely they’d get stuck.

Yang Qiniang’s expression was also grave. "The situation today really makes you hesitant to act."

But Lin Feng just waited quietly without saying a word.

「Half an hour after the market opened.」

The sluggish state of the United States market even made the news in the Celestial Dynasty.

"If all the stocks are like this today... then those who got in earlier must be losing their shirts!"

Cao Ming’s brow was tightly furrowed.

But in the next second, Cao Ming saw Lin Feng suddenly make his move.

Lin Feng directly threw all 800 million of his funds into the stock market.

And he’d bought a beverage stock, of all things...

"Brother Feng, are you serious?"

"This stock is so deep in the red right now... if you buy now, the risk is just too great!"

The three others in the office all had anxious looks on their faces.

The entire market was just in such a sluggish state.

If Lin Feng had only taken one or two hundred million to test the waters...

...the others wouldn’t have said anything.

But this time, Lin Feng had bet all the money he had on this one stock.

In the current market conditions, such an action was simply reckless!

Even though all of Lin Feng’s previous moves had been incredibly astonishing...

...this time, everyone still felt it was far too risky.

Lin Feng paid no mind to the others’ anxiety.

Instead, he quietly waited as time passed.

After Lin Feng bought the stock...

...its chart line began to climb.

This phenomenon even made Yang Qiniang rub his eyes.

"Is it... rising?"

Jiang Chao also spoke, filled with disbelief.

Cao Ming moved the mouse and checked the trends of other stocks.

Most stocks in the United States market were still in the red.

To be precise, at this very moment, only the stock Lin Feng bought was actually in the green.

The only one out of thousands of stocks!

And Lin Feng had pinpointed and bought this exact stock.

If this was luck, then just how lucky was Lin Feng to hit on this one-in-thousands probability!

For a moment, the other three people in the office were speechless.

The office was completely silent.

Only the sound of Lin Feng’s mouse clicks could be heard.

After this stock rose by two percent...

...Lin Feng quickly moved all the money from that stock into another one.

This other stock was just starting to turn green.

When the whole board is red, green is what excites investors.

So it wasn’t strange that Lin Feng bought this stock.

Because everyone would rush to buy a stock that was starting to turn green.

And after Lin Feng bought this stock...

...he sold it in less than ten minutes.

Again, he locked in a two percent return.

Jiang Chao had been silently watching the performance of the stocks Lin Feng sold.

The beverage stock Lin Feng had bought earlier was still in the green.

But in the time it took Lin Feng to invest in another stock and get a two percent return...

...that beverage stock had only risen by a mere 0.3 percent.

During this United States morning session, Lin Feng traded among about four different stocks.

Yang Qiniang also noticed something.

Whenever the external market environment was very turbulent...

...Lin Feng would pour a large amount of capital into the beverage stock he bought first.

It was as if he was hedging his risk.

That stock really was like a safe harbor.

It basically didn’t have much volatility.

As long as Lin Feng moved his money out of that stock...

...he would, at a minimum, gain a two percent return from another stock...

"Brother Feng, do you have some kind of predictive ability?"

"Why is your timing for buying and selling so precise every time?"

Jiang Chao asked, staring into Lin Feng’s eyes.

"Brother Feng, you don’t have a superpower, do you?!"

The same thought was written all over the faces of both Cao Ming and Jiang Chao.

Lin Feng knew his god-like performance had drawn the attention of the three.

But Lin Feng wasn’t the least bit afraid.
