( commercial bank)

Shawn looked at the text on his phone screen reminding him of his transaction details. He let out a deep breath, a look of excitement emerging on his face.

Five months ago, he was robbed and traveled back in time from the year 2020. He had wasted 40 years of his past life, but haavens were given him another shot at life

Shawn carter, who has been working in the economic industry for more than ten years, was reborn in the year 2000 with the memories and knowledge of the next 20 years 

Knowing that he could not wast away the next few decades of his life, shawn started taking action five months ago!

He did everything based on sheer memory regarding the hottest issue that happened in the country back in 2000 — the mung bean futures incident 

Shwan sold off his parents' only property and broke into the futures market with an 800,000 - dollar fund at a leveraged of 20 times.

 He went through the five months in a state of anxiety and distress.

On this day, he welcomed the arrival of the remarkable rise in mung bean prices from his memories. As he had initiated an opening five months ago, the sudden rise in mung bean prices caused shwan's personal assets to exceed ten million dollars. 

He was clear that mung bean prices had already reached their limit. There would soon be a persistent decline in its prices for next few years.

There for shawn did a clearance and withdraw his shares. He got a total of 13.66 million dollars after accounting for processing fees!

Going from 800,000 dollars to 13.66 million dollars in a day's time, shwan achieved a financial endeavor most people would not be able to attain throughout there entire life 

" After returning the principle and interest, there will still be approximately 12.8 million left. If history does not change its course and everything takes place just like in my memories, I'll be able to take hold of the following chances to earn more money. Perhaps this 13 million dollars will soon become..... hundreds of millions or even billions"

He continued looking at the transaction text few more times. Shawn let out a few loud laughs. He has been poor, wretched, and trapped in debt throughout the entirety of his past life. Every single day to pay off his debt. Days passed like years when one lived that way. Nevertheless, everything had changed now

Since he had been poor and wretched throughout his entire past life, he needed to earn lots of money in this lifetime!

He had to let his parents enjoy there lives after retirement to make up for all his regrets from past life!

However, he could not be too glad right now. 13 million was not a small sum, but it was not considered much for wealthy people!

Before growing strong, he needed to endure everything and develop well in order to obtain gains from every opportunity possible. He had to act cool and maintain a low - profile.

Just as shawn was busy thinking about some financial opportunities set in future, someone knocked at the door.

" shawn, my mother wants you to come home for dinner tonight "

Shawn's smile disappeared 

Immediately at the sight of the pretty girl standing outside door. This was his current girlfriend and wife - to - be, hazel carson.

" im not free?"

Hazel stared dumbfoundedly at jasper

Ever since they got to know each other Shawn has been crazy in love with her and bent to her every will. He agreed to her every request and fawned over her every time they met. However, he seemed like a different person today.

Being too used to the way he usually treated her, the stark contrast in his demeanor made hazel extremely unhappy. Her expression hardened. " my mother wants you to come home for dinner and you're telling me that you aren't free?!" She yelled. 

Shawn laughed coldly. After going through everything in his past life, he was well aware of this woman's intentions.

"Forget the meal. Don't think im oblivious to everything! Your mother wants me to come over just to ask me to lend money to that brother of yours, right?" He asked. 

Hazel's expression changed. " how did you know?"

" i know everything! I also know that your brother impregnated a woman out there and forced her to get an a abortion. She almost lost her life and now they want him to pay them 300,000 dollars right? " shawn smirked coldly

Hazel looked at him in distaste.

"He's my brother, and we're about to get married. Why are you being so calculative over a small sum money like this?" She asked

"A small sum of money? You're asking for 300,000 dollars! You know all about my financial situation. My parents have humble roots in the agricultural industry. They worked hard there entire lives just to buy this house for us to live in after getting married. Meanwhile, i just started working. Where should i find 300,000 dollars for your brother?" Shawn asked angrily.

" you can sell off your parent's old house in there hometown. Although it won't be worth much, it's enough to get us 300,000 dollars,"

Hazel stated matter - of - factly.

" have you gone crazy?"

Although this was the second time was hearing all of this from her, because of his past life, shawn was still enraged all the same.

"That's my parents retirement home. where will they stay after you sell there home?" He questioned.

Hazel's eyes glimmered. " they can rent a place to stay or stay with us for a while" she said

"Stay with us?"

Shwan scoffed. " such sweet words coming from you. Last year, my father came to the city to receive treatment for his illness and stayed with us for total 3 days. You made my mother wash your feet for you everyday but only visited my father once during the week he was in the hospital. You couldn't even stay for 5 minutes. Tell me why. Was my father's health not as important as your teatime appointments?"

Shawn got more infuriated as he continued talking. He hated hazel, but he hated his week self in the past even more.

" enough, shawn carter!"

Hazel had a terrible expression on her face. " I'm just asking you to allocate some money for my younger brother. Do you want to see him go to court?. He's my younger brother!" She yelled in rage

" well he's your brother, not mine what does this have to do with me?!" Shawn roared

"Alright than!"

Hazel laughed coldly. " as expected there's no good man out there. That's all I'll say for today. If you don't hand me 300,000 dollars, let's break up! We won't have to get married either!" She said coldly

Shawn laughed after listening to her words.
