They had kept a reserve of 160 million dollars to be ready for any unpredicted circumstances.
Nevertheless, 700 million dollars was quite a lot.
With a twenty-fold leverage, they were moving 14 billion dollars.
This substantial sum had quickly increased the rapidly falling gold prices by two percent in an instant.
"Quick! Buy now!"
Seeing the massive influx of funds triggered a massive buying order, the blonde youth's face turned ghastly pale and he yelled out in panic.
At that moment, he didn't even have the time to ponder where the capital came from.
This was a moment of money grabbing...and so much money was being stolen by others, how could he not panic?
Soon, the price of gold returned to its original level, but the blonde youth's face was dark and unsettled.
Because of the appearance of that substantial sum of money, they managed to purchase only a small amount of shares, even less than those they had just thrown in.
If it had not been for the profit from the difference, their operations could have led to losses.
"Who was the one who issued that sum of money just now? It was too much, too fast, breaking our agreement..." the blonde youth shouted into the special phone.
"It wasn't from our side..."
"Not from us either..."
Several voices quickly came from the other end of the special phone.
"Boss, we've figured it out. It was the same funds that triggered a large number of closing orders just now..." A voice came from nearby.
"Damn it! We are idiots! We became bridesmaids for someone else's wedding! I'm sorry to tell all of you that we've been targeted by a fund, and this fund seems to believe we will rally in the future. Our original plan can no longer be carried out. Otherwise, it will only increase this person's profits..."
The blonde youth cursed in anger, and then he had to speak reluctantly.
"If it weren't for the special position right now, I would have crushed this fund. But everyone, we can't do this right now. We have spent so long on this and we can't stop for nothing. Our target is not this sum of money, I promise, if he dares to do this again, I will swallow him whole..."
...
"It seems that these people won't let the gold price fall anymore..."
Seeing their multiple probes without truly letting the gold price drop, Lin Yun thought to himself.
It seemed like they wanted to force him out, or perhaps they wanted to see if he would continue to invest his money, but he stood still, leaving them feeling helpless.
In the end, they held the elevated price and refused to let it fall. It seemed like they had really given up.
Lin Yun closed his eyes and truly rested.
However, he had already set up a super-brain to notify him of any significant changes immediately.
At the same time, he also sent messages to those traders, asking them to monitor the trends of gold futures closely.
It was a double assurance.
...
One hour later, Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing arrived in Shen City.
First of all, Lin Yun headed towards the location of the resources.
In an instant, the range of the Cosmic Trading System's absorption and refining of Spiritual Energy expanded from a radius of one thousand five hundred meters to a radius of two thousand two hundred meters.
The further it went, the more terrifying the added area was for every hundred meters the radius increased.
An increase of seven hundred meters in radius was a significant increase.
Fifteen by fifteen equals two hundred and twenty-five, twenty-two by twenty-two equals four hundred and eighty-four.
The area alone had increased by more than double.
Lin Yun could immediately feel that the balance on the Cosmic Trading System was rising at more than twice the previous speed.
Speaking of which, it must be said that the population of Shen City far exceeded that of Immortal Origin County.
Even though it was just after the New Year and the population of Shen City was at its lowest, it was still incomparable to Immortal Origin County.
With just a rough calculation, Lin Yun figured out that if he were to stay in Shen City for a day, he could obtain about thirty or so Spirit Crystals every day. This was a substantial number.
If it wasn't the New Year, he estimated that he could obtain at least sixty to seventy Spirit Crystals a day, or even more.
Conversely, if he were in Immortal Origin County, he estimated that he could only increase by one or two from the base of three or four.
After some time, as more and more people left Immortal Origin County, the Spirit Crystals he obtained each day in Immortal Origin County would be even less.
Shen City, however, still had a lot of potential to be tapped.
The gap between the two places was too great.
"Boss, you finally came..."
At the processing factory, seeing Lin Yun come over, Ding Wei was almost in tears.
Originally, he was just a small worker and was a reserved person, so having Lin Yun suddenly let him handle so many things made him quite overwhelmed. If it weren't for Lin Yun finding some people to help him, he felt that he might not be able to cope.

Even so, he felt very tired, especially the interpersonal communication, which was not his strong suit.
"You've been working hard during this time. Don't worry, I will give you a raise," Lin Yun said with a faint smile.
It wasn't that Lin Yun couldn't find someone better than Ding Wei, but in a short period, it would be hard to find someone more reliable than Ding Wei.
The transportation and other matters of the Qingyun batteries needed a reliable person to handle them.
"Boss, that's not what I meant..." Ding Wei was quick to wave his hands and explain, sounding a bit flustered.
"I know, where's Little Mei?" Lin Yun shook his head and asked.
"Little Mei? She's dealing with the people from those big companies. She'll be over in a bit," Ding Wei said after a moment's pause.
"By the way, Boss, about the inventory of the batteries, you don't have to worry too much for now. Those agents just took a large number of batteries mainly because they were afraid that they won't have enough in their inventory, that's why they took so many..." Ding Wei remembered something and continued.
"Hmm." Lin Yun nodded.
This explained why the inventory of eight million Qingyun batteries was depleted so quickly.
It should be noted that eight million Qingyun batteries were not a small number.
Soon, Little Mei came over, but she didn't have time to greet Lin Yun much and said anxiously, "Boss, those people heard that you were coming and insisted on seeing you. I couldn't stop them... "
"Tell them to go to the Qingyun Hotel. I will arrange a meeting room to receive them there. I will be there in an hour," Lin Yun responded calmly, showing no reaction.
