…When he saw Dawson again, it was when his future father-in-law was the most high-spirited.Jasper was not clear about the fight with the Hanks, but when he saw Dawson in high spirits, it was evident that the outcome was ideal.“The head of the Hanks family has stepped down,” Dawson said directly after Jasper sat down.“That bad?” Jasper asked in surprise.After all, the Hanks was one of the influential big families in the province. The failure of the scheme last time almost caused the head of the Hanks family to fall from his position of prestige.“The most important thing is that Zayden is the son of the head of the family. The father and son were pushed out by the Hanks to ease my anger.”Dawson’s face was gloomy. “Although another person is the head now, the Hanks will still be the Hanks. This time, they’ve lost billions and their reputation. They won’t do anything for now, but they won’t let this go after suffering a loss.”“Different situations call for different actions

“How’s the location of the land?” Jasper asked with one raised eyebrow.Dawson quickly asked someone to fetch a map of the capital of the province.After opening the map, Dawson pointed at a small area on the map and said, “It’s a total of 16 acres, so it’s not small.“The location belongs to the plot of the Southface River. However, the only problem is that it has slightly strayed from the intended line and is part of the surrounding of the city center now. The traffic and facilities might be a little worse.”Jasper’s eyes were glued on the map while listening to what Dawson said.Then, a glint flashed across his eyes.He was so familiar with this place.The most popular high-end residential area in the province would be built here five years later.The geographical location was not a problem at all because years later, the province would build the subway and enlarge the city center.In those two projects, this area would be included as the core area.The Southface River wou

Dawson chuckled wryly and said, “300 million.”“That’s insane!” Jasper did not know whether to laugh or cry.“According to the market price right now, the residential area in the province will be about 3,000 dollars per square foot. A 16-acre land won’t even be 11,000 square meters, so 34 million should be enough and they’re asking for ten times the price?”“Also the land development rights to develop the south bank of Southface River as a whole.”What Dawson said was shocking.Jasper lifted his eyebrow violently, and one word appeared in his heart immediately. ‘Buy!’There were a lot of barren hills on the north bank of the Southface River, so it was not suitable for commercial development. In comparison, the commercial value of the south bank would be much higher.This piece of land was located at the south bank of the Southface River, and the entire river cut across the province. Not only would there be universities in the future, but there would also even be affiliated high

“Jasper, you’ll be responsible for the auction in the future. I’ll get someone to register the real estate company.”After they confirmed their plan, Dawson then sought advice from Jasper.Jasper nodded. “It’s better to do it now than later. Since we’ve decided this, then it’s only natural to start immediately.”Jasper and Dawson were people who were swift and decisive. They did not like to dilly-dally. The process of registering the company started immediately.On the other hand, Jasper also transferred the 800 million dollars he had promised to the capital account of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce.Initially, he had a little more than 4.5 billion in his account.He had used one billion to register JW Capital. Then, Jasper used some of the money for investment, and he did not plan to take it out for the time being.After deducting the 800 million for the real estate company, Jasper still had 2.7 billion in his account.“The money went out so fast.” Wendy felt a little pit

Sylva leaned back against the rattan chair. He picked up a clay teapot and took a sip from the mouth of the pot. He asked, “Do you know why you lost?”Zayden stared blankly at him, then his face became filled with bitter resentment. “The Schulers stabbed me in the back! They’re despicable and have no shame!”“Everyone has the right to say that the Schulers are despicable and have no shame, but we can’t. If you want to say those things, then both of us are the ones who are despicable and have no shame.“Plus, the business world is like a warzone. If you lose, it means you’re not as good as the others. You refuse to look at your own problems but instead, you accuse others of being despicable and shameless. You’re still too inexperienced.”Sylva asked Zayden to sit down. His tone and appearance looked unhurried.“The reason you lost is that you’re too shortsighted. You were too caught up in the momentary gains and losses. When you’re in the face of a crisis, you throw yourself into c

“Dad, don’t worry. This time, I won’t lose to anyone no matter what!” Zayden said firmly while gritting his teeth.Sylva turned back and looked at him. Then, he patted his shoulder and said, “If that’s the case, then the ten billion dollar fee is not much of a deficit.”Zayden lowered his voice and said, “I’ll take back this debt from the Schulers and that person behind them!”…Jasper had been staying in Schuler Manor in the province.Firstly, the registration of the real estate company and the series of paperwork regarding this process would need his signature since he was the shareholder.Secondly, he took this time to stroll around the province with Wendy as well.JW Capital was only investing in Terizone for now.In addition to that, Terizone was determined not to fall short, so they did not have to worry much about them. If there were any problems, Hudson and Jack were able to solve them.Jasper had planned this clearly from the beginning regarding this matter.He could

Zayden immediately walked over.“Hey, you’re here to apply for the bid as well?” Zayden looked at the folder in Jasper’s hand and chuckled coldly. “You’re just a man who depends on his woman and you’ve gotten some worthwhile results? Seriously?”“You want to but unfortunately, you’ll never be able to,” Jasper replied coldly.Zayden’s eyes darkened as he scoffed. “Laine, don’t be so pleased. I’ve suffered some losses before, but what does it have to do with you?”“The winners are Dawson and that person behind him. At best, you’re just a dog next to them! Stop trying to be a dog that’s threatening people just because of its master’s power!”“If that’s the case, why don’t we see who’ll get the last laugh?” Jasper shook the folder in his hand and said unhurriedly.Zayden said disdainfully with a scoff, “You don’t have the right to talk to me like that. Don’t forget you’re just someone who depends on his woman. The Schulers can kick you away anytime they want.”Jasper peered at Zayde

Jasper did not move when he was facing Zayden who was about to pounce on him like a mad dog.He was even smiling at him as if he was expecting Zayden to lose his mind completely.“Mr. Hanks!”At this critical moment, the people next to Zayden grabbed him tightly.“This is the city hall and upstairs is the office for the leaders. If you attack him here, then your family will be in trouble. Please calm down.”Zayden’s subordinates were still rational. They knew that if Zayden attacked Jasper here, he would be in trouble no matter whose fault it was.Zayden took a deep breath and suppressed his flames of anger.He glared at Jasper and said malevolently, “You won’t be complacent for long. Soon, I will make you kneel in front of me!”Zayden turned around and left after he said that.Jasper felt that it was such a pity that Zayden had stopped himself at the final moment.If Zayden had attacked Jasper just now, then Jasper would have ways to make him get more than he bargained for.
