Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 918: Slow Recovery

On the surface, it may seem that it doesn't matter when Saudi Arabia takes action, but for Lu Shaohua, it is of great importance. Not to mention that once the action in Saudi Arabia is launched, it means that the entire Saudi Arabia has fallen into the hands of the second prince, which is equivalent to falling into the hands of Lu Shaohua. How can it be said that it has no relationship? Moreover, the turmoil in Saudi Arabia is bound to affect the price of oil, and the Morgan Consortium has invested hundreds of billions of dollars in the oil futures market. How can Lu Shaohua not pay attention to the situation in Saudi Arabia?

Fortunately, the situation is relatively stable this time. The Second Prince and Li Zhijie have been communicating on the phone constantly these days, informing each other of their situations, and then summarizing them. Finally, there is a result, and that result is that everything is normal.

What happens after everything is normal?

Then it was time to take action, with full force, to eliminate terrorist organizations in Saudi Arabia and those with ties to Saudi Arabia but located elsewhere.

"It has been confirmed. The action will be carried out tomorrow. All preparations are complete now. We will just wait until dark tomorrow to start the action." Li Zhijie on the other end of the phone said seriously.

It is impossible for Li Zhijie, the intelligence chief, not to know that the Morgan Consortium has invested a large sum of money in the oil futures market. Considering that Lu Shaohua is now attacking the Morgan Consortium, it is clear what Lu Shaohua is going to do. After all, the Phoenix Oil and Gold futures markets are Lu Shaohua's world. The Morgan Consortium's rash entry is no different from joining a wolf pack.

At the same time, Li Zhijie also understood that Lu Shaohua would not pay attention to the situation in Saudi Arabia just to deal with the Morgan Consortium. Another reason was that whether Saudi Arabia could be controlled was related to Lu Shaohua's future plans.

Therefore, Lu Shaohua’s concern about the situation in Saudi Arabia is not just to deal with the Morgan Consortium, but is also related to future plans.

This was indeed the case. Lu Shaohua was concerned about the situation in Saudi Arabia for two reasons. Now that he knew the result, he could finally rest assured. However, he did not forget to give more instructions at the end. "We must be careful. Those terrorist organizations are not simple organizations. We can refrain from taking action, but once we do, we must strike a fatal blow."

Lu Shaohua is well aware of the horror of terrorist organizations. He can eliminate them if he wants, but he cannot be soft-hearted. He must eliminate them completely once he takes action. Otherwise, it will be like cutting the grass without getting rid of its roots, and it will grow again when the spring breeze blows.

"Don't worry, we have made all the preparations here, nothing will go wrong." Li Zhijie seemed very confident.

"That's good." Lu Shaohua responded.

Lu Shaohua still believed in Li Zhijie. No matter in terms of his behavior or ability, Li Zhijie was a very strong person. Since he dared to make a guarantee, it proved that he had absolute confidence, otherwise he would not make a guarantee.

……

After hanging up the call with Li Zhijie, Lu Shaohua dialed another number. This number belonged to none other than Liu Mingzhang. When the call was connected, Lu Shaohua didn't say much nonsense and went straight to the point. "Oil prices will skyrocket after the U.S. stock market opens tomorrow."

It's a very simple sentence, but it reveals a lot of information. For example, the most positive thing is that oil prices will skyrocket when the U.S. stock market opens tomorrow, and the underlying meaning is that Lu Shaohua has taken action. As for what action, you can guess it. Saudi Arabia is probably going to take action.

Liu Mingzhang and his men knew very well about Lu Shaohua's manipulation of oil. Well, not only did they know, but Liu Mingzhang and his men were also involved. Every time the price went up or down, the date was actually decided after Liu Mingzhang and his men, the three giants of Phoenix Finance, discussed it, and then they contacted the Second Prince to discuss it and finally finalized the operation date.

It can be said that Liu Mingzhang holds the lifeline of oil prices in his hands. Once Liu Mingzhang has been pushing up prices for a period of time and thinks that the price has reached its limit, he will withdraw from the oil futures market and let the second prince export a large amount of oil. At this time, Liu Mingzhang and his team will follow up and buy on the decline in the oil futures market.

The large amount of oil appearing in the market will inevitably affect the trend of oil prices. A price drop is inevitable. At this time, Liu Mingzhang and others have entered the oil futures market to buy on the short side. This is another opportunity to make money.

Buy low, buy high, Liu Mingzhang and his team constantly manipulated the price of oil like a magic trick, repeating the process over and over again. It was almost like buying and selling, buying again, and selling again. It was no different from playing a game.

However, this operation, which seems like playing a game, has brought huge wealth to Phoenix Financial and a lot of funds, allowing Phoenix Group to make breakthroughs and progress in the industrial sector.

However, this time is different. Although the operation will be the same as before, who let the Morgan Consortium enter the oil futures market? They entered Lu Shaohua's territory, which is no different from seeking death. Lu Shaohua will naturally not let them go.

Liu Mingzhang and his friends, who knew Lu Shaohua well, knew that they would not be able to achieve Lu Shaohua's goal unless they inflicted heavy losses on the Morgan Consortium. So when Lu Shaohua called, Liu Mingzhang almost guaranteed that he would do his utmost to keep the Morgan Consortium's investment in the oil futures market.

That's right, at this stage they are just keeping the Morgan Consortium's investment in the futures market. They haven't really taken action against them, but are trying to lock them up and prevent them from withdrawing. As for their desire to increase capital, Liu Mingzhang and others would be even happier to see it.

The more you invest, the more miserable the death will be. This is the consequence of offending Lu Shaohua. Therefore, Liu Mingzhang and others are eager for the Morgan Consortium to increase its capital at this time. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible for the Morgan Consortium to increase its capital now, because their headquarters is now in danger. They are destined to have no time to pay attention to the oil futures market.

"Well, just hold them back. When we have time, we will slowly deal with them." Lu Shaohua said to Liu Mingzhang on the other end of the phone with a smile.

"Ah."

……

A day passed quickly, and the next day, the U.S. stock market opened as scheduled. As soon as it opened, countless eyes in the world were staring at the stock price of the Morgan Consortium, wanting to see how badly the Morgan Consortium would fall today.

However, to everyone's disappointment, the Morgan Consortium's stock price started to rise as soon as the market opened. Although the upward momentum was limited, it was still unexpected. After all, just yesterday, the Morgan Consortium's stock price fell wildly. It's only been a day, but only a dozen hours have passed. It's not falling anymore, but rising instead. It's unbelievable.

However, this phenomenon is extremely clear to those who are involved in the game, just like Lu Shaohua. He is the leader of this war and a thorough insider. He can naturally see clearly that the reason why the Morgan Consortium's stock price rose is entirely because they invited allies.

"Is this the power of the allies you invited?" Lu Shaohua's words seemed to be asking the Morgan Consortium, but Lu Shaohua was not asking that. Instead, Lu Shaohua was muttering to himself.

Seeing that the Morgan Consortium's stock price was rising, but the increase was not large, Lu Shaohua knew that it was because the allies invited by the Morgan Consortium were helping. However, the power of this help was really limited, and the speed of the recovery was as slow as a snail.

However, in order to be cautious, Lu Shaohua still gave Liu Mingzhang and others an order. The content of this order was to ask Liu Mingzhang and others to suspend all actions and wait and see how the situation develops. At the same time, Liu Mingzhang and others were also asked to notify those financial giant allies to suspend all actions and wait and see how powerful the Morgan Consortium and their allies are.

The Morgan Consortium rebounded as soon as the market opened. The reason for the rebound was known. Someone was helping. So how powerful was this help? Judging from the surface, the strength was not strong and the funds were limited. Could it be a trick? Lu Shaohua didn't know.

Therefore, Lu Shaohua thought about suspending all actions and waiting to see what happens. Lu Shaohua had reason to believe that if the other party was testing the market, seeing that no one had suppressed the stock price for a while, they would definitely reveal their true strength and quickly pull up the stock price. After all, it was a good opportunity that no one had suppressed the stock price!

The wait lasted for a full hour. During this hour, Liu Mingzhang and his men did not make any move. The financial giants who participated in the attack were also very obedient and did not make any move either. They all watched the situation.

With the help of its allies, the stock price of the Morgan Consortium was gradually rising, still at the speed of a turtle, without any change. This showed that the group of people who came to help the Morgan Consortium were not very powerful.

Yes, Lu Shaohua was sure that they were not very powerful, because after observation, combined with the intelligence collected by Li Zhijie and his men, Lu Shaohua could almost determine that their strength was very average.

Since this was the case, there was no need for Lu Shaohua to be polite. He gave an order and asked Liu Mingzhang and the others to start attacking again.

Attack? A direct attack on the Morgan Consortium?

No, the order issued by Lu Shaohua was not to attack the Morgan Consortium head-on, but from the side. Well, it was a bit far-fetched. After all, the funds brought by Liu Mingzhang and his men were limited. The attack on the first day consumed nearly half of the funds, and the remaining half had to be saved for the end.

Therefore, at this time, Liu Mingzhang and his team are destined to not have the strength to attack the Morgan Consortium head-on, but this does not mean that they cannot attack the Morgan Consortium. Don't forget that Phoenix Financial holds shares in several major pillar industries under the Morgan Consortium.

Sell ​​off, sell off like crazy, let the Morgan Consortium have a headache!

This is the content of Lu Shaohua’s order, and it is also part of Liu Mingzhang and his team’s plan!
