08 The Plan III
After going to the bank, he went to the grocery store to buy some food. It's been a while since he and his sisters have a proper meal...
After shopping, he went home, after taking care of all the groceries he bought.
He sat on the couch...
"It's still early, Anne and Amy won't be back till late in the afternoon."
He checks his phone, Time 2:49 pm.
"Hmm, the first step is done now for the next step."
He opens the factory system interface. On the shop page, he is looking at the 1-star Mobile phone. Up until now, he still can't decide if he will purchase the 1-Star mobile phone.
But he knows he needs it for his excuse on online trading of stocks, of course, he can learn it himself, but that will take some time even with his enhanced stats he was not confident he could master trading in a short time.
A two-star AI support from the 1-star rank mobile phone can help him a lot. He was betting on the 2-Star rank AI support to help him with the trading since it's his only excuse for money. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth.
He mentally clicks buy on 30en 1-Star mobile phone.
Instantly a black slick, elegant crystal-like phone appears in his hand. He looks at its sides, this looks sick, but at the same time attention grabber, he checks the phone, and there's no button whatsoever.
"How the hell I'm I going to use this."
Ding! User identification... clear.
Suddenly the phone powers up.
And a bunch of holograms appears before him. "Whoa, awesome."
"Hi, user, I'm eve-1938unhk. You can call me Eve for short. I'm your interface AI support. How can I help you?"
In fairness, this AI doesn't sound like a synthetic voice like the factory system has.
Eve sounds like a real human, and it's even a girl's voice...
"Eve, is there a way to change the interface settings? And call me boss, all this hologram is asking for trouble."
"Of course, boss, this is just a factory setting. Everything can be customized to your convenience."
"Is there a way to hide all this?"
"We can do a neural connection, boss..."
"Sure, let's try that..."
Suddenly a lot of information was downloaded into his brain. The black phone in his hands died down...
"Do I have to carry this all the time?"
"Unfortunately, yes, boss, but you can change its appearance if you want."
"Eh, really, can you change it into a watch?"
"Sure, boss, please pick a design."
Arc chooses a regular-looking watch, then clicks change. He watches as the black phone in his hand changes into a regular watch...
"cool"
He changes it again and again until he had enough.
"Eve, can you link all my accounts and phone number to you?"
"That's easy, Boss. Syncing... done!"
"Eve, I plan to do stock trading, can you help me."
He was a bit nervous if Eve can not help him, he was f@#ked.
"That's easy Boss, give me a second," said Eve.
He watches as Eve studies all she needs to regarding trading at least that's what he thinks Eve is doing, a few minutes later, Eve's voice rings in his head.
"Preparation complete boss. So what kind of trading do you want, Boss? Long-term or short-term? Or day trading?" asked Eve.
"I leave that up to you, and you can use my 20k Ugcredit in my account to do what you want. I only have one request, I need results asap!" said Arc.
"Affirmative Boss"
"Whew finally my starting preparation is complete, I'll lie low for a few days until the first results of trading are complete after that I can slowly deposit money into my account until I have enough to buy a new house far from here to avoid a problem," Arc mumbled in his mind.
To his surprise, it was not even 10 minutes when a notification rang in his head.
"Boss, the first transaction is complete!"
"Eh so fast!"
He checked and saw that Eve divided his money into several trading accounts invested in a few companies and sell it again a few minutes later when he saw his account 36079 Ugcredit displayed.
"Holy shit, did I just earn 16k in less than 10 mins?"
"To be accurate, Boss, it's more than that I still have a few stocks I haven't closed yet, still waiting for a perfect time."
"Predicting the flow of the market is so easy it didn't even use 1% of my computing power."
What Eve did is she registered to many trading apps and started day trading, that's why she was able to show some results in just a few minutes.
"Eh, Is that so..." Arc has how experience in being a trader choosing the right company to invest or buying and selling the many resources like gold and oil and monster materials is not something easy to do. The stock market is volatile and unpredictable, even the most experienced broker can not guarantee 100% success.
"Well while you're at it, help me look for a new place that should be big enough to accommodate a few energy production factories, A warehouse would be the most ideal I think," said Arc still feeling astounded by all the things that happen in the last few hours.
"Sure, Boss," replied Eve with a cheerful voice
"And continue trading, oh, and help me check what's the best business to open later, put into account the factory system into your criteria for searching."
"Right away, Boss."
"I'm rich hahaha. I'm rich."
Although he didn't say it out loud, he keeps dancing like a caveman who discovered fire.
A few minutes later.
"I need some contingency plan. I can't be complacent."
In the high-rise office building, rows upon rows of advanced computers with people can be seen shouting and calling all the time.
Rowling trading agency is one of the top trading agencies in the continent, as the amount of Ugcredit flowing into their agency is in trillions of credits, and many top companies are their clients.
Mill has been a stockbroker for more than 10 years, he was good at it, and that's why he was one of the top earners of the Rowling agency the commission he gets is in the millions, but because of his gambling addiction, he barely has any savings.
Be that as it may, money comes easy for him.
"Shit, I miss the deal on Duran company, eh!"
Mill saw a list of traders and noticed that one trader entirely buys and sells the stocks at the right time. It may sound easy, but it's not, buying a stock and selling it at the right time to earn profits is not easy oftentimes if you're late by a few seconds you see your stock plummet below the price you bought it from. You have to account for the tariff and tax for every transaction, too, to make a profit.
"Lucky guy," although he saw the name, the amount is hidden for security reasons.
"Belam Corp stock is down by 5 points, should we buy the stocks?" one of the men in the office shouted.
He clicks the Belam Corp. and saw a graph of the company history he checks the graph of the company history for the last 10 years to the latest if it didn't fall for the next 5 minutes buy all the stocks available,
"Sir, It falls again by 3 points."
"Wait for another 5 mins, and check all the news and if there's anything about Belam Corp." Mill shouted back.
"Sir, the stocks just went up for 20 points."
"Don't worry, it may just be a retest, he checks his computer and notice that all indicators are on the rise. He clicks his tongue, another missed opportunity," Mill cursed a single missed opportunity means he just missed a payday.
He clicks on the recent trader's list, eh him again he saw the name Mr. Grand, he checks the timing of the trade.
Normally you can't check that kind of information, but because they are the top trading agency there are some perks, and this is one of them.
"Again, the timing is perfect." Mill said in his mind.
Buying the stocks at the right time and selling at the perfect time before the momentum is lost is something even the top veteran traders very rarely manage to do, but this Mr. Grand was able to do it in several successions if words of these get out it will cause a commotion in trading communities. But Mills just looks at it and smiles and sets it aside.
He was amused, but that's about it, he focused again on his job when his shift ends he checked all the transactions he missed. He does this every time, checking the pattern, and see if he can learn something. Likewise, he checked all the miss opportunities, and Every time the name Mr. Grand is there. He checks all the transactions he made today, and again the name Mr. Grand is there.
"Jenny gave me the list of all the transactions today." Mill said looking shocked
"Which one?" answered jenny his personal secretary nonchalantly
"All of it!"
"Ok sure, eh, what? All of it? Why?" Answered Jenny looking confused.
"Just send it to me, don't ask why." Mill said, still looking at his computer.
"Fine, give me a few minutes."
5 minutes later, his company email got a notification. He saw the file Jenny sent. He clicks it open, to check all the transactions, and his mouth grew wide open so much that an egg can fit inside...
"This is impossible..."
He clicks on it to download it and saves it to his tablet. And then calls Jenny, Jenny! Is Jake still in his office?
Jake Rowling is the owner and the CEO of the Rowling trading agency. He was a genius, even Mill can only concede to Jake in terms of skill in trading that the guy is a prodigy. He was a regular magazine regarding trading.
"Mr. Rowling is still in his office." Jenny answers
In the Rowling trading agency, only Mill can call Jake by his first name... everyone else addresses Jake as Mr. Rowling.
