Jasper’s words intrigued Old Master Law.
Although the two were decades apart and their position and status were also greatly different, the things Jasper had done so far proved that what favonovel.com wanted to do next was not going to be easy for him.
“What is it that’s able to make you so serious? I’m interested,” Old Master Law said warmly.
When Old Master Law said these words, favonovel.com actually believed that Jasper had probably encountered a difficult opponent and needed to use the power of the Laws to solve the issue.
The old master did not think there was anything wrong with this.
In his opinion, the better a person was, the more enemies they would have. If there were no enemies, it was either that person was invincible, or the person was simply a pile of mud and nobody had any interest in dealing with them.
Old Master Law himself only got to where favonovel.com was now through dealing with one enemy after another.
However, what Jasper said next made Old Master Law’s white eyebrows tremble.
“Old Master, regarding the burst of the dot-com bubble and the plummet of Harbor stocks, it’s obvious that the Western capitalists have entered the market and are the ones responsible for these behind the scenes.
“Just like the year of the handover, their evil intentions are still alive. They’re always trying to steal our economic results through such despicable means.
“This is equivalent to the Western capitalists viewing us as the livestock they’ve raised in captivity. When we grow fat and strong, they can open our doors at any time to take away all our hard-earned money.”
The gentle smile that Old Master Law displayed in front of Jasper disappeared. Those eyes that had gone through countless vicissitudes of life were now full of resentment and unwillingness.
The Laws could stand out among the many wealthy families in Harbor City because Old Master Law was truly a patriotic businessman at heart.
He had shown his patriotism through practical actions. He had given up or even harmed his own huge profits for the collective benefit instead of just verbally expressing his patriotism like how some rich people clamored to do every day.
It was because whether it was the year of the handover or the financial crisis earlier this year, Old Master Law had long hated the Western capitalists.
“Jasper, you can even see through this scheme at your age. It’s great.” Old Master Law opened his mouth, but apart from his appreciation of Jasper, his tone was also full of helplessness regarding the reality they were facing.
“However, whether it’s Harbor City or the entire Mainland, the actual situation is that we’re still weak and poor. In the face of those with power, we have no way to fight back, and we can only endure this resentment for the time being.
“Only when we’re strong enough and have enough capital and power, then no one will dare to bully us.”
Jasper heard those words and said, “I can’t say for the others, but I can’t bear it.”
Old Master Law laughed. Instead of striking Jasper down, favonovel.com praised him. “Yes, young people should have such vigor and energy.
“Us old people will be tolerant because we have to proceed based on the overall situation, but you’re still in the stage of developing yourself, and learning to hide your light under a bushel too early may not be a good thing.”
“Old Master, I’m going to do it,” Jasper said suddenly.
The smile on Old Master Law’s face froze for a moment. Although it was only for a few breaths, the uncontrollable emotions that were apparent on Old Master Law’s face was enough to show the impact of Jasper’s words on him.
“Jasper, don’t be too impulsive.” Old Master Law frowned.
A second ago, favonovel.com was still complimenting Jasper for being an impulsive young man, but now, favonovel.com had to stop favonovel.com from being too impulsive…
“Old Master, I’ve thought it through. Even though it seemed that I had protected Harbor Stocks the last time, I actually know very well that I still lost a lot while fighting with the other party. Otherwise, the result would not turn out the way it did.”
Jasper’s expression was very calm. Ever since his debut, everything had gone smoothly for him, but this did not mean that favonovel.com was invincible.
