Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Preparations

Whoops 

It was the same feeling of rapidly updating frames, as he traveled back to the present, the only difference was that the order of frames was reversed.

Coming back, he went over the list of stocks he had decided to invest, in his mind.

Picking up the pen, he listed some stocks that would earn him money, but not too much to arouse suspicion, and then called Smith.

Knock 

"Come in!"

"Boss, do you have anything to do with me?" Entering the office Smith spoke in a sturdy voice 

"Here is the list of stocks that will show a rising trend for the next whole week, with this information you will be able to do the rest, right?" patting the piece of paper containing info on Smith's hand, Ray asked.

As soon as he heard it was work regarding his department, Smith was beaten with chicken blood, patting his chest Smith reassured him: 

"Don't worry Boss, leave it to me."

Getting Smith's assurance, Ray was relieved.

The reason Smith was so excited about getting the information was that his department had been sitting there doing nothing since Ray had stopped Smith from investing in the stocks until he got the list of stocks worth investing from Ray.

Due to this Smith had a crisis of unemployment, and now that Ray had assigned him work, he instantly relaxed.

"Boss, how much should I invest in them?" Flipping the paper Smith asked 

"Hmm, you can invest all the 5 million in the company account" Rubbing his chin Ray pondered for a moment and then replied.

"This, this, this boss, will it be too much?" Smith began to stutter when he saw Ray giving him all the company capital to handle.

"It isn't much, my requirement for you is to at least double the company capital this week, can you do it?" Ray looked at Smith with some amusement.

Thinking about the information and capital Ray has given him, with this amount of trust he decided not to let Ray down, gritting his teeth he replied: "Boss I will do it"

"Good, then you go prepare" Ray sent him away.

Watching Smith leave the office, Ray checked his bank account, he had 20 million dollars in his account right now. He decided to invest them in the top 3 stocks that he remembered.

He didn't give any information about these stocks to Smith, instead, he decided to operate on them himself, after all, eggs aren't put in a single basket.

Opening his trading account he invested 20 million equally in these 3 stocks, and then he closed the account.

After this operation, it was a week-long wait, after a week he will be able to earn at least two to three times the principal he invested in.

After he was done with the work, he stretched out, he had been busy for a long time, first, there was a meeting, then he jumped into the future, and after coming back he had been explaining work to Smith.

It took a considerable amount of time, closing his trading account, he picked up the key and went out.

Driving on the roads of New York in his luxury car, Ray lamented the twist of fate, just some time ago he was a poor bastard cursing at his destiny, but it didn't take long before he was able to get out of his predicament with the help of time.

Now he owns his car, a place to stay, and has established a company too.

All this is thanks to the chance of fate that he stumbled upon time rule, that night.

Shaking these thoughts off, he drove towards his apartment, 15 minutes later he reached City View apartments, where his destination was.

Parking the car downstairs, he went up, today he has decided to enjoy and relax for the rest of the day, and since everything was on track he has decided to go into Time Stop once again tomorrow.

But this time he was going to create or at least come up with the basic idea for his cultivation technique.

He also wanted to experiment about what were those pictures that he had seen when he jumped into the future and to see them he needed to strengthen his will.

He had some guesses but he had to verify them through this experiment, if his thoughts were correct he got excited just thinking about it, after all, it represented infinite possibilities.

As these thoughts were going through his mind he reached his apartment, changed into more comfy clothes, and booted up his high-spec PC.

Turning on the Spectra, he logged into his account.

Spectra is a multiplayer battle royale, as soon as it was on the market it became quite popular among gamers.

Ray himself enjoyed playing games, in university when he got tired of constant struggle, he would play games to relieve his frustration.

Inviting his game friends he started brushing kills in the game.

Due to his physique and superior senses, he was like a demon set free in the game, carrying his teammates all the way he won 10 games in a row.

Playing all the way it was 5 hours later, and he got bored, it wasn't a bit challenging, so he logged off.

It was night, he wanted to eat something to pad his stomach, steaks he had last week were delicious so he decided to go there.

Starting the car he was on his way, midway he made an appointment for a private room.

After he was done with dinner, he came back, he decided to get his goals straight for his next Time-Stop.

He should at least have a basic course of action so that he wouldn't be like a headless fly tomorrow.

He first needed to have a detailed understanding of body structure to decide what he should study next to speed up his cultivation technique development.

Recording the books needed, he turned off the laptop and was ready for bed.
