"Gaia, I want you to create a website for our company also register on social platforms. I want you to push Hearths to every person using a mobile phone but make sure it's not annoying" "Got it sir."
Richard relax as he kept thinking about his next steps. "I guess a need a business plan for my empire. Since I promised to be in every field I have to lay some background with is money and power. With these I don't have to worry. Gaia how is the advertising plan going" "I was about to report on that sir, it has been done sir. I want to ask if you want to push out as it is" " Gaia limit it to Africa first, I must conquer my base first before delving into others people's pie" "Done, sir" "Well you have done a fantastic job with these designs and the catchphrase. Haha I can see the money rolling in already"
Richard discovered that his greed has become more intensified, he sighes as he watches the sun afterglow "Saya will be back soon" He got lost thinking about his business plan and discovered the terrifying challenge he had setup for himself. But the greed in him won't let him miss out on any industries pie, even if it is going to make him a whole of enemies including some states as he plans to breaking every piece of restraints in his path. He made the decision that would eventually shakes and reshuffle all the world's cards into his hands. His plan to become an Emperor overlooking all other beings at his feet all he has to do is to bid his time. Yeah, all he believed he needed was time. As if inspired by a Supreme Being he started working on his laptop Creating detailed plans on how to enter every field and dominate such field but he had to first accumulate some background if for nothing just to get back his revenge for him and his family. The blood debt had to be repaid in blood, a ferocious look appeared on his face but was pulled back as he discovered blood streaking down his finger. A good piece of whisky glass was just destroyed.
He cleans his hand and continue typing out his thoughts hoping to get every idea detailed as possible. This went on for hours as he finally stopped after typing for more than 2 hours. He was so engrossed in this that he did not notice Saya behind him.
"Sorry I didn't know you were around." "Guess as much because I have been calling for like an hour but you didn't reply came up to check and saw you typing seriously, it's been long since I have seen you so serious."
"Well I'm just thinking about the past, don't you want to go back to those times."
"Brother!!!"
"I know what you want to say but I promise I will get everything back and more"
"Don't do something dangerous okay"
"Got it ma" Richard laughs trying to diffuse the tense atmosphere
"Hey, seems like someone is itchy. Okay this woman is very young and beautiful okay, how dare you slander me."
Their playful banter resounded in the relatively empty mansion.
"Hmm, no food for you tonight."
"Hey, don't be so cruel"
"That what you get for offending this young lady"
"I sincerely apologise to the young lady"
"Apology not accepted, serve this young lady"
They both looked at each other and laughed
"Dinner?"
"Certainly"
Saya walked out of the room trying to set the table.
"Gaia, implement plan one"
"Sir, the cost and the international conflict ..."
"Just do it"
"Yes, but we don't have sufficient fund and machinery for such"
"Ohh, prepare tonight we blood bath the whole wall street"
"I will prepare the account sir and sir during your retreat someone tried to attack your stock account but it was blocked by the firewall also Hearths has gained a lot of traffic."
"Hey that's quite unexpected. Seems like we will have to speed up things up. Contact Jim they should strive to build the factory within a month, they shouldn't worry about equipment."
"It's done sir"
"Okay, find us a target tonight. I'm getting dinner, later Gaia."
In the US
The hustle and bustle of the day just begin to take place as the sun sneakily opens her eyes showing dawn to the land beneath its. A armoured Rolls Royce pulled up at the Wall Street, a well looking gentleman opened the doors relieving the Cullinan its duties. The gentleman alighted from the vehicle and entered an unadorned building.
"Welcome, Mr. Morris"
"Are you all set, we spent a lot of energy on this. You must get it right this time, the news is going to be released in the next 4 hours. How is your plan"
"We start a month ago so we basically have all the ammo set only waiting for the right time"
"Well the time is now, buy all the oil futures"
The people in the building worked all an oiled machinery showing how competent they are or it was probably their familiarity to such occasions. This wasn't just happening here but in most consortium trading hall each with the sole aim of making money.
Richard after eating, took a quick shower to clear his head returns to his study to find Jim reply to his message before.
"Okay, Gaia tell what you found."
"Sir, the consortium wants to drive up the prices of oil"
"How much is a barrel of oil now."
"34 dollar per barrel"
"How much will the increase go?"
"128 dollar"
"This vampires, they are sucking the world's blood. Well let me suck this with you haha."
"Stake our full fund with leverage. Wait how many leverage can we get."
"Since it's futures we can get a 400x leverage"
"Put it all"
"Sir, this may crash the market or push the price of oil to twice the expected price."
"Just protect our fund"
"I can guarantee that sir but we have to split the funds into different accounts to facilitate withdrawal."
"Okay, that the best."
"The expected time to close the net will be in at least a month time"
"Alright let watch the show then. This can make me a trillionaire."
At 9am the Iraq declared a state of an emergency and temporarily stopped oil production to deal with Iran threats on it. The two country war immediately caused a spike in oil prices that seems to have gain wings. It successful broke through the 60 dollar barrier and successfully made it to 70 per barrel. It's momentum stopped a bit but keeps climbing higher. A lot of people are surprised about the quick increase in the price, they want to eat a pie leading to the continuous increase in the price.
