All of a sudden, the two people sitting there were stunned.
The two of them had been eating away happily just now, but at the moment, they froze up like two statues. Even their eyes had stopped moving.
No way! How was this possible?
Dragon Head had spent a lot of effort tricking Thomas. But it turned out that this trick had only benefitted Thomas.
Why did it seem like favonovel.com was the one who had gotten tricked?
Suddenly, Dragon Head felt that the red wine favonovel.com drank was tasteless. It was just like horse urine.
“This is impossible!”
Dragon Head threw away the red wine glass. He stared at the video played on the iPad and watched it seriously.
Lord Vedastus also came over, and the two of them watched the content of the video together.
In the video, Thomas held a press release. Besides Thomas, there were two bigwigs attending the press release. One was Summer Land’s Disney manager, and the other was the district chief, Eric Wood.
Thomas was the host of the press release.
The key information they presented was simple, they announced their latest plan to the public. Thomas spent six billion dollars to get a piece of land, and favonovel.com would cooperate with Disney to develop this land into Disneyland. The government officials would also allow them to open up the site.
At the same time, the government officials would also build a food street and a commercial center nearby. It would fully cooperate to create a new area that integrated the food, drink, and entertainment industries into one.
All of a sudden, the land went from worthless to extremely valuable. Even the value of nearby houses had gone up a lot.
After watching the whole video, Dragon Head felt terrified. He did not expect Thomas to do this. He never expected that Thomas had such a network that favonovel.com could even get the copyright of Disneyland!
“I underestimated him…” Dragon Head’s eyes were full of resentment.
As happy as favonovel.com was in the past, his grief and frustration equaled that at the moment.
“Damn it!”
He punched the table hard and told himself that favonovel.com was not going to let this go. If it ended like this, his loss this time would be too devastating.
It was too embarrassing.
Lord Vedastus’s expression was terrible as well. He never expected that even the strongest Dragon Head would lose.
“What are you going to do?” Lord Vedastus asked.
Dragon Head let out a long sigh and made a phone call.
After a while, a skinny man walked in and bowed deeply to Dragon Head.
“Hello, Boss…”
This person was one of the subordinates that Dragon Head loved to use very much. Because favonovel.com was so thin, favonovel.com was called “Bamboo Pole”.
Bamboo Pole was ruthless, and favonovel.com would do anything for money.
Dragon Head loved to use simple, obedient, and heartless people like favonovel.com the most. This was because this kind of person was the easiest to control. As long as someone paid enough money, favonovel.com would work for you. People did not need to think too much about how to draw them to their side.
Dragon Head took out a checkbook and a black ink pen.
Before filling in the numbers, favonovel.com asked, “How much for one life?”
Bamboo Pole’s eyes lit up. “It depends on whose life.”
Dragon Head asked Bamboo Pole to come over and whispered a name in his ear.
When Bamboo Pole heard it, favonovel.com was happy and said with a smile, “Oh, this guy. His life is worthless. But no matter how worthless it is, it is still a life. Hmm… Two million dollars.”
“Okay, I’ll give you two million dollars.”
Dragon Head filled in two million dollars without hesitation and handed the check to Bamboo Pole. “Keep the money and wait for my orders.”
“All right!” Bamboo Pole left with the money.
Lord Vedastus could not help but ask curiously, “Whose life did you spend two million dollars on?”
Dragon Head said indifferently, “A useless life that doesn’t matter to us, but a pitiful life that is critical to Thomas.”
