"Brother Feng's tactics are truly sothing. How great it would be if we were friends?" Chen Hong sighed.
"Unfortunately, such an opportunity seems to have vanished," Luofeng said with a smile.
"On what grounds have you risen so spectacularly to great heights upon arriving in Capital City?"
"Because I am Luofeng!"
"Haven't you ever considered failure? If you fail, you'll be utterly dood," said Chen Hong. "The circles in Capital City are splendid; as long as you make a na for yourself, you can reach the pinnacle. But the waters here run deep. Once you fail, it's not just about losing your reputation; you could end up in jail for decades."
After all, this place is a convergence of power. Many people here wield the scepter of God. It's not like other places, where small-ti hustles rely result in so financial loss. Many entrepreneurs here have key family mbers—their pillars of support—working for The Court.
"Thanks for the warning! I'll be careful," Luofeng stated, unfazed, then added, "Alright, Big Bro, I have so things to attend to. We can continue this another ti."

After hanging up, Luofeng quickly sent a ssage to Chen Dali and the others' group.
"Are the three of you there?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Yeah!"
Luofeng: You all know about my situation with Shengyuan Group, right?
Chen Dali: We know. We're just watching the drama unfold. This ti, Chen Hong is in huge trouble. The guy is incredibly foolish. But if it were , facing Brother Feng's vigilance, I'd also be sowhat nervous—nervous enough to go and provoke the officials.
Li Bo Kai: This matter isn't so simple. It's not rely a sow-discord sche. Brother Feng's network... tsk, tsk, tsk! Impressive!
Lin Xiaoyun: Are you saying his wife is having an affair?
Chen Dali: That's the implication!
Luofeng: ???????
What are you guys even talking about? I don't understand a word.
Brother Feng had, in fact, only bluffed to intimidate Chen Hong.
Chen Dali: This man has incurred public wrath. In the future, the authorities will likely refuse to work with him. From the looks of it, Shengyuan Group is pretty much finished. Neither the Capital City circles nor the authorities will entrust them with funds anymore.
Lin Xiaoyun: Chen Hong's way of thinking is seriously flawed.
Chen Dali: Brother Feng is mighty, directly crushing Shengyuan Group!
Chen Dali: Shengyuan Group has truly collapsed this ti. Even if they have their own capital, they'll probably be barred from investing in any official projects.
Lin Xiaoyun: Brother Feng is aweso!
Li Bo Kai: Brother Feng is mighty!
Luofeng: Enough with the flattery. You're not beautiful won, so what's the point?
Chen Dali: ...
Li Bo Kai: I'm gonna puke.
Lin Xiaoyun: Ugh!
Luofeng: Let's talk serious business. Do you guys want to make so pocket money?
After Luofeng finished speaking, he imdiately used the 'Card with the trend information for the next thirty days' for the copper futures market. Now, the copper futures trends for the next thirty days were firmly in his grasp.
The only issue is that this market is relatively small, making it tricky for large amounts of capital to enter.
"Of course, I'm interested!"
"Definitely interested!"
"Can't wait for that pocket money!"
"Speaking of which, how tragic! I just ordered a sixty-million helicopter, and then my family restricted my funds. Now I only have 1.6 billion left," Li Bo Kai ssaged.
Lin Xiaoyun sent a ssage saying, "I'm in a similar situation."
Luofeng: We don't need too much money this ti; eight or ten million should suffice. Consider it a perk from Fengshun Investnt for club mbers.
Luofeng: But since each of you can apparently rustle up over a billion, how about we each invest one billion?
"One billion is no problem!"
"No problem for either!"
Luofeng: Alright, I'll announce the rules in the club first. We can discuss the specifics later.
Then, Luofeng made an announcent in the club. The investnt quota Luofeng offered was only 3.8 billion, available for everyone to share. Luofeng dangled this bait in the club, obviously with a plan: to lure Chen Hong. To successfully ensnare Chen Hong, Luofeng even attributed this 'perk' to being in an exceptionally good mood that day. After all, everyone knew Luofeng had just struck a blow against Shengyuan Group, so offering a 'benefit' in the club seed plausible. Chen Hong wasn't an idiot. The setup had to appear logical, with no obvious signs of manipulation.
Luofeng continued to ssage in the group chat with Chen Dali and the other two.
"Let tell you about this pocket money plan. We're targeting Copper Futures this ti. According to my investnt company's analysis, from Tuesday to Friday, Copper Futures should experience a surge. Barring any surprises, it should rise by about 5% within three days! If you use ten or twenty tis leverage, won't that be a nice bit of pocket money?"
"Dali, Lin Xiaoyun, go to a few bars, have so fun, and 'accidentally' let this information slip."
"But don't make it too obvious. Do it as if you're drunk."
Chen Dali: I know what to do. Shengyuan Group has already lost its external fund managent mandates. If we can trick them into losing their remaining liquid capital, they'll be completely finished.
Lin Xiaoyun: So, Brother Feng, you're fishing this ti?
Luofeng: Exactly. But that doesn't an we can't make so pocket money while we're at it.
Chen Dali: But I have a feeling Chen Hong will see through this.
Luofeng: I'm counting on him seeing through it.

Around six that evening, while Luofeng was discussing the details with Chen Dali and the others, Bai Ningbing finished her classes and arrived at Starbucks. She spotted Luofeng occupying a table by himself, engrossed in his phone, and a smile touched her lips.
Just a mont ago, Wang Yanran was joking that Luofeng might be trying to pick up girls at Starbucks.
Bai Ningbing approached and greeted, "Great Demon King?"
"Huh?" Luofeng paused, startled for a mont, then said, "Babe, are your classes over?"
"I've been so caught up with things, I lost track of ti," Luofeng continued. "Babe, what would you like to drink?"
Before Bai Ningbing could answer, Luofeng pulled her to sit beside him. "I still have a few things to sort out here, so it'll take a little longer. Sit with for a bit, and then we'll go get sothing to eat."
"Mm-hm!" Bai Ningbing nodded and ordered a nut yogurt.
About twenty minutes later, Luofeng and Chen Dali's group had finalized their 'fishing' plan.
"All sorted, Babe. What do you feel like eating this evening?" Luofeng asked.
After thinking it over, Bai Ningbing said, "The food street out back has Spicy Feng's Grilled Fish, and they offer other kinds too. Want to try it?"
Bai Ningbing loved fish, so Luofeng naturally nodded.
"Alright, Babe, let's go for it!"
Luofeng stood up. He took Bai Ningbing's LV bag, slung it over his own shoulder, and then, holding her hand, walked out of Starbucks.
The Grilled Fish Restaurant Bai Ningbing had ntioned was nearby, just a few minutes' walk away.
