Chapter 343 - Chapter 343 Chapter 332 Gone Crazy (1)
Chapter 343: Chapter 332: Gone Crazy (1) Chapter 343: Chapter 332: Gone Crazy (1) Lu Jiaxin had initially thought that Nie Zhan was coming over to inquire about her investment, but surprisingly, he didn’t mention it and instead brought up He Hanguang’s case.
Nie Zhan said, “The woman was saved, but she lost her child, and she suffered a uterine rupture with severe hemorrhaging. In order to save her life, her uterus had to be removed, and now she is infertile.”
He didn’t have much of a concept of children, and sometimes he even felt annoyed by Nie Manli’s constant nagging about marriage and having kids. However, not wanting children and being unable to have them were two different concepts.
This woman had a tough break, but knowing that He Hanguang had a wife and child and still claiming to be his girlfriend, she wasn’t really deserving of sympathy.
“Will He Hanguang be sentenced?”
Nie Zhan nodded and said, “He will. However, the He Family has already hired the best lawyer. If that woman is willing to relent, the chances of him being convicted of murder are not high, but he can’t avoid an intentional injury charge.”
As for how many years he would be sentenced, that would depend on the He Family lawyer’s capabilities.
Lu Jiaxin remembered some infuriating cases from the past and said, “If they produce a certificate proving He Hanguang has mental issues, could he avoid prison time?”
Nie Zhan hadn’t thought about that. He said, “If they present a document with a real and valid mental illness, he could avoid prison time, but then he wouldn’t be able to work ever again.”
“Whether he ends up in prison or declared mentally ill, He Hanguang will no longer be able to serve as a director of the He Group. He Hanxuan is dead, He Hanzheng is a doctor and can’t shoulder this burden, so the He Family will have to rely on He Mingzhu from now on.”
Lu Jiaxin was moved by this thought, “Do you think this is a coincidence or a well-crafted scheme?”
Nie Zhan didn’t speculate, “Whether it’s a coincidence or a well-crafted scheme, if He Mingzhu becomes the main decision-maker of the He Family, the outcome will be beneficial for us.”
Lu Jiaxin agreed with this point. No matter what, He Mingzhu could not be as ruthless as He Zhuliang, “When might He Zhuliang be sentenced?”
Nie Zhan shook his head, indicating that it was hard to say, and it depended on the prosecution and police, “After the incidents with Reporter Yun and Lawyer Gao, the police placed him under even tighter surveillance. With so many charges, he won’t be able to escape conviction. You don’t have to worry; this matter is unrelated to us.”
Lu Jiaxin thought to herself that He Zhuliang’s imprisonment was her doing. However, she believed in Gu Wenfeng and Xie Kaixiao, and was confident that no matter how capable He Zhuliang was, he wouldn’t be able to trace it back to her.
After finishing the discussion about the He Family, Nie Zhan brought up the topic of forex trading, “This opportunity is rare. If you can recover some of your funds, I’ll help you buy in.”
After agreeing, Lu Jiaxin asked, “Nie Zhan, can I tell Su Heyuan about this? He has been very good to me, and I want to let him make some extra money.”
Nie Zhan shook his head and said, “Better not tell him. Even if he knows, he probably won’t be able to grab an order. It’s best not to know; knowing but not being able to buy will only make him feel terrible as he watches others get rich.”
Lu Jiaxin shook her head, “Whether he gets the order or not is his business, but since I got the news, it would be dishonorable of me not to tell him.”
“Then I won’t have dinner here today, we’ll go out to eat another time,” Nie Zhan said. Since Lu Jiaxin was not yet of age, it wasn’t convenient for him to stay, otherwise he would be the one to suffer in the end. So he simply chose not to stay for dinner and to leave early.
“Alright.”
After seeing him off, Lu Jiaxin immediately called Su Heyuan. The call was quickly connected, and it was Su Heyuan himself who answered.
Lu Jiaxin briefly informed him about the Plaza Accord, then urged, “Your bank should have some brokers you’re familiar with, right? Call one immediately and ask him to hold an order for you, otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get one tomorrow.”
Had Nie Zhan not told her about the Plaza Accord, Lu Jiaxin would definitely not have encouraged him to engage in forex trading. The reason was simple: her sources were not that extensive, and explaining it would have been complicated.
Su Heyuan had bought stocks but never dabbled in foreign exchange. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, “Are you at home? I’m coming over now.”
Lu Jiaxin wanted to say more, but the call had already been disconnected. When she called back, the servant said he had left.
As soon as Su Heyuan’s car stopped, he dashed into the living room like an arrow. At that time, Lu Jiaxin was still in her room. Hearing his shouting, she hurried down.
Upon seeing her, Su Heyuan quickly asked, “Jiaxin, explain to me in detail why we will definitely make money trading greenbacks/Japanese Yen this time.”
“Let’s go to the study to talk!”
In the study, Lu Jiaxin explained the details of the Plaza Accord to him, “This is all from Nie Zhan; according to his analysis, getting a short position is like making a profit–you should buy quickly if you have the spare cash.”
Feeling excited, Su Heyuan said, “Then how much did you buy?”
Lu Jiaxin vaguely indicated that she had invested all her money elsewhere and would miss this opportunity, “Never mind me, you should hurry up and arrange everything! By tomorrow, when the news spreads, everyone will rush to buy, and it will be impossible to get any.”
Su Heyuan declared, “If I make a profit, I’ll give you ten percent commission!”
Lu Jiaxin responded, “No need, just treat me to a big meal. Stop standing here, and hurry to find your stockbroker.”
Su Heyuan immediately called Sun Wushuang.
Lu Jiaxin had just washed her hair, and it was still wet. Seeing Su Heyuan in such a rush going downstairs, she went upstairs to blow-dry her hair.
After drying her hair and coming downstairs, she saw Su Heyuan sitting on the couch, eating fruit. Lu Jiaxin asked him, “Did you get it?”
Su Heyuan shook his head, “No. Sun Wushuang has gone to the countryside and won’t be back until tomorrow morning. I called a few other brokers, but they all gave excuses. I had no other choice, so I sought help from my old man. He happens to have five million on his foreign exchange account. I asked him to short, but with twenty times leverage, he said it was too risky.”
“Then what happened?”
With a smile, Su Heyuan said, “He’s old and afraid to take such risks, which I can understand. I told him to think of the money as a loan from me and to go ahead with the twenty times leverage. If it’s a loss, it’s on me. If we profit, I’ll give him a ten percent commission, and he agreed.”
The exchange rate between Hong Kong Dollars and greenbacks is fixed at 7.8:1. Five million would be over thirty million in Hong Kong Dollars, which he could still afford.
“So you did get it?”
Su Heyuan nodded, “He called his stockbroker, and they’ve agreed to place the order as soon as the market opens tomorrow morning, but they can only offer up to ten times leverage–at most. Even that is only because my grandfather has been a long-time customer.”
Lu Jiaxin felt that having ten times leverage wasn’t bad, since getting the position meant profit.
Su Heyuan looked at her, hesitated, but still mentioned, “Jiaxin, your dad has remarried, did you know?”
Lu Jiaxin replied indifferently, “I know, Brother Heming told me when I came back from abroad. I won’t be returning to the Mainland in the future; he can marry as many times as he wants, it doesn’t affect me.”
Su Heyuan thought it was fortunate that Lu Jiaxin had come to Hong Kong. Being far away meant out of sight, out of mind. Otherwise, back in the Forty-nine City, watching her dad remarry over and over would have made him sick.
