Four of the major manufacturers gathered after receiving news that the patriarch of the Mayo family from Central City had some business with them that night.
After all, the Mayo family was famous around the country. Although they had no clue why the Mayo family would be interested in the Greco forest project, they were happy that they would be able to meet the patriarch. At the very least, they would be able to meet favonovel.com in person.
Not many were attending the gathering that night. Aside from the four major manufacturers, the others who were present at the venue were their bodyguards. There was no one else around.
After patiently waiting, they finally met the person that they were waiting for.
A tall and strong man, who gave off a gallant aura, entered the venue.
The man came up to them, bowed, and said, “Let me introduce myself. I am the patriarch of the Mayo family, Thomas Mayo.”
The four manufacturers placed their wine glasses down as the atmosphere turned serious out of the blue.
From his appearance alone, they could tell that favonovel.com was unordinary and somewhat dignified.
“The Mayo family’s prestige has been through our ears for a long time now. May we inquire the reason for Mr. Mayo gathering us here tonight?”
Thomas took a glance around and spoke in a warm tone, “I am here to solve your problems…”
The four of them looked at each other as if they did not understand.
What was the problem that required Thomas’ assistance?
They had no clue themselves.
Thomas continued, “It came to my knowledge that you are facing some difficulties with one of your projects recently. The four of you collaborated and spent two billion dollars on a forest but were unable to do anything as you were stopped by the Greco tribe…”
“You have no way to progress further on your plans, right?”
So that was what favonovel.com was talking about.
The manufacturers frowned.
One of them said, “To be honest, you are right, Mr. Mayo. To be exact, it is that f*cking witch from the Greco tribe which wreaked havoc for us. Every single time we arrive there to cut down the trees, favonovel.com would use black magic on all of us and make us suffer. Now, we are in a stalemate. None of us is willing to give in to the other party. Sighs…”
Since they had already invested two billion dollars into the project, if they had no way to progress with their plans, what difference was it when compared to throwing money down the drain?
The manufacturers had their very own discussion earlier on. They were willing to wait for another fifteen days at most. If nothing could still be done by then, they would be resorting to drastic measures!
It would be inevitable for bloodshed to happen at that point since it was a matter of life and death to them. But of course, if they could help it, that was something that none of them wanted to happen.
Thomas smiled and said, “I came here today to solve this problem for the four of you. You shall not be bothered by it anymore.”
“Really?” The manufacturers were excited.
One of them asked, “What do you suggest, Mr. Mayo? Please do tell.”
They were expecting a good idea from Thomas. But what Thomas said next was no different from pouring cold water onto them. They were no longer smiling after that.
Thomas said slowly, “I have a simple solution. All you need to do is let me take over this project. In that case, all the losses shall be borne by me alone. The four of you just need to take the money and walk away, bearing no losses on your end…”
“I will certainly not allow your work all this while to be in vain. How does two billion five hundred million dollars sound to you as the price for the takeover?”
“Excluding the two billion principal which you guys invested in, the remaining five hundred million dollars can be divided among yourselves…”
Technically speaking, his approach was not bad. Since the manufacturers basically had nothing done but yet they would be able to earn five hundred million dollars.
It was pretty enticing.
