The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

Around 1 a.m., in the master bedroom of the villa.

After a passionate and unrestrained lovemaking session, Lingyun and Yanzi went to the bathroom for a bath together, during which the experience was naturally incredibly erotic.

Emerging from the bathroom, Ling Yun lightly patted Yanzi's shapely bottom and said with a smile:

"Honey, go to sleep first. I'm going to the study to check on the international financial markets and the US election."

"Today is the decisive day of the US presidential election, and as a result, the international financial markets and crude oil futures markets are bound to experience severe volatility."

"Although I had prepared contingency plans in advance, I couldn't completely let my guard down."

Yanzi knew the importance and urgency of the matter, so naturally she did not object.

"Okay, honey, go ahead and get busy, but don't overwork yourself. You can never earn all the money in the world."

"I'm going to sleep now. I'll hear your explanation tomorrow morning."

After saying that, she tiptoed and gave him a sweet kiss.

After the kiss, Ling Yun left the master bedroom and went to the study.

Yanzi walked towards the large bed in the center of the master bedroom, ready to have a good night's sleep.

After entering the study, Ling Yun sat down in the boss's chair, casually turned on the computer and television, and began to check the international financial market and the US election.

At this time, the US presidential election voting has been fully rolled out, with Hawaii and Alaska, the last states to begin voting, also starting the process.

With this, all polling stations in all fifty states of the United States are now open, and the US presidential election has entered its final decisive stage.

Based on opinion polls and information gathered from various sources, Obama's lead is widening, far ahead of Republican McCain.

Especially in polls in several key swing states, Obama is leading McCain by a large margin.

In the live television broadcast, it was clear that the majority of the voters who were interviewed by the media and lined up to vote openly supported Obama!

Of course, the fact that the Democratic Party controls more media resources is also a factor here!

Seeing this, Ling Yun simply smiled and let it go.

For him, as long as things unfold as they did in his previous life, with Obama winning the election and taking office smoothly, everything would be fine!

As long as Obama comes to power, he will push forward the new policies he promised before the election for at least the next one to two years, and everything will develop according to the trajectory of the previous life.

In this way, Ling Yun's innate advantage as a reborn person will always remain, and he will surely be invincible!

Once he confirmed that there were no changes in the US election situation, he quickly shifted his attention to the international crude oil futures market.

From 6 a.m. yesterday to 1 a.m. today, the international crude oil futures market staged a spectacular reversal.

Yesterday morning, international crude oil futures opened lower and then fell rapidly.

International oil prices continued to fall until the evening, when the outcome of the US election became clearer and Saudi Arabia announced a significant production cut, at which point the decline stopped and prices began to rise.

After 10 p.m., the likelihood of Obama winning the election increased further. Coupled with the strengthening of US stocks and the recovery of risk appetite, international oil prices accelerated their rise to the peak.

To date, international oil prices have risen by more than 8% and are still accelerating!

During this process, the investment departments of various airlines and the crude oil investment team of Yuanda Group, among others, first closed out all short positions at the low point.

Then, they reversed their short positions and went long on international crude oil futures.

Now we're just waiting for international oil prices to rise by more than 10%, then we'll immediately close our positions and reap a huge profit!

Seeing that the international oil price trend was exactly as expected, Lingyun felt much more at ease.

Then he checked the situation of European and American stock markets.

As expected, with the outcome of the US election becoming clearer, European and American stock markets surged across the board.

European stock markets, which just closed, generally saw gains of over 4%, with some markets even rising by around 6%.

The US stock market, now in the afternoon trading session, has already risen by more than 3% and continues to climb.

The financial sector, which had previously suffered a significant decline, has now rebounded by more than 8%, with some small-cap financial stocks even seeing gains of 50% to 60%!

Seeing the trend of US stocks, Lingyun's smile became even brighter.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up his phone, which was lying to the side, and sent a text message to Mr. Chen and the others.

"European stock markets have closed. Has the long-to-short reversal been completed? This is crucial; otherwise, today's gains could very well be nothing but disappointment."

Less than half a minute after the text message was sent, Mr. Wang, the general manager of Yuanda Group, was the first to reply.

"Don't worry, Yuanda Investment has already completed its long-to-short strategy and is just waiting to reap the rewards tomorrow afternoon."

Immediately following was a short message from General Manager Chen.

The news briefs were largely the same: the joint securities investment team successfully reversed their long and short positions and made a fortune!

When the international financial markets start a crash tomorrow, we can reap another huge profit!

After reading several text messages, Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief and was completely at ease.

Then I put my phone aside and continued to check the international financial market situation and the progress of the US election.

He didn't shut down his computer until around 2:30 a.m., then got up, left the study, and went back to the master bedroom to sleep!

Across the ocean, the US presidential election, which has captivated the nerves of countless people around the world, is in full swing!

Ling Yun woke up after only three and a half hours of sleep.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately reached for his phone on the bedside table, turned on the screen, and checked the time.

It was just past six o'clock, and the sky outside was pitch black. The swallow in my arms was still sound asleep, sleeping soundly!

As Lingyun checked the time, he also saw seven or eight unread text messages, all received in the middle of the night.

He had his phone on silent, so he didn't hear it.

But instead of checking the unread messages immediately, he slid off the bed and went to the bathroom to wash up by himself.

A few minutes later, he changed into his home clothes, tiptoed out of the master bedroom, and went to the study.

Once he entered the study, he opened his phone to check the unread text messages.

The first text message was from General Manager Chen; it was a message of good news.

"Lingyun, the team has successfully liquidated all positions and reversed from long to short before the US stock market closed. Everything went smoothly!"

Next was Mr. Wang from Yuanda Group; the text message content was largely the same.

The difference is that this short message also mentioned the situation in the international crude oil futures market.

International oil prices rose by more than 13% at their peak in the early hours of the morning, and finally closed up 10.36%.

When international oil prices rose by more than 10%, the Yuanda crude oil investment team quickly closed its positions. Then, when the price rose by more than 12%, it entered the market again and continued to short international crude oil futures on a large scale!

With this back and forth, the Yuanda crude oil investment team made a fortune!

After reading President Wang's message, Ling Yun opened Secretary Zhou's message and took a look.

The brief message from Secretary Zhou also mentioned the international crude oil futures market, and reported on the China Aviation Group's investment department's closing of positions and the reversal of long to short positions.

In addition, he also briefed the investment departments of various airlines on their activities.

As for the joint investment team, they remain unmoved!

Following Secretary Zhou was a text message from Deputy Director Zhang, which contained information about the US presidential election.

Given the importance of the US election, Deputy Director Zhang and many others from relevant departments stayed up all night, closely monitoring the developments of the election.

That's why Deputy Director Zhang was able to promptly inform Ling Yun of the situation.

While reading these unread text messages, Ling Yun casually turned on his computer and glanced at the international financial market situation.

In no time, Lingyun had finished reading all the unread text messages.

After a moment's thought, I began to reply to each one.

Before we knew it, it was already around 7:10 in the morning.

Ling Yun was checking the pre-market situation of the Japanese stock market when his cell phone, which was lying next to him, suddenly rang.

It was a call from Deputy Director Zhang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Ling Yun immediately pressed the answer button and brought the phone to his ear.

The next moment, Deputy Director Zhang's excited voice came.

"Good morning, Lingyun. The first batch of election results are in: the Republicans won Kentucky, and the Democrats won Indiana."

"It's worth noting that Indiana is a traditionally Republican state, a Republican stronghold, but this time it has swung towards the Democrats, just as you predicted."
