Julian said awkwardly, “Jasper, I haven’t even thought about these things.”
Jasper noticed Julian’s somewhat embarrassed response and said with a smile, “How about this, I’ll give you a commercial property on Gold Pedestrian Street when you get married in the future?”
“Gold Pedestrian Street? What kind of place is it?” Julian asked with some confusion.
Jasper laughed and said, “Waterhoof City has built a demonstration site for the national pedestrian street early last year. It’s still not that famous now, but from how I see it, it’ll one day become a famous pedestrian street known throughout the country, even becoming one of the landmarks of Waterhoof City.
“If we buy it now, it’ll bring in steady profits without any losses. Plus, I’ve always thought about being a landlord.”
Judging from his words now, the shopping that Jasper had mentioned to Julian earlier was naturally not one that entailed shopping for clothes or luxury items. Those things were, at best, something to spend his pocket money on and not even considered a serious purchase.
What favonovel.com really wanted was ownership of the commercial properties on Gold Pedestrian Street.
Jasper had only remembered about this business opportunity when favonovel.com was counting the Hanks family’s assets.
There had been a letter of intent written in Sirius’s third uncle’s name for the purchase of ten commercial properties on Gold Pedestrian Street and this triggered Jasper’s memory.
Gold Pedestrian Street was but one of three top pedestrian streets in the country. It had now just been completed and was still many years away from becoming popular.
The disposable income per capita would increase when the national economy rose in the future. Simply put, when people had more money in their wallets, they would start to travel and spend. Only then would the potential of the pedestrian street really burst forth.
Jasper’s trip to Waterhoof City this time was so that favonovel.com could purchase Gold Pedestrian Street from Waterhoof City Hall. He had been here more than once in his past life, and back then, favonovel.com had imagined that if favonovel.com had a commercial property in a place like this, repaying credit card debt would not have been a problem.
He could even just relax and enjoy the rest of his life.
Now that favonovel.com had power as well as a great opportunity in front of him, favonovel.com would eventually follow through on his unfulfilled dream from his past life of becoming a landlord.
What was more, in terms of investment value, Gold Pedestrian Street was also, at present, the real estate project with the highest investment value.
Two and a half hours later, Jasper and Julian arrived at Wonderland Hotel in Waterhoof City.
They checked into the room they had already booked a long time ago. Given his title of vice president of Haddock Chamber of Commerce’s Waterhoof City branch, Jasper wasted no time and met with the head of Waterhoof City’s Investment Promotion Department in the hotel suite.
Victor Gul was a powerful individual.
“Pleased to meet you, Mr. Gul,” Jasper shook Victor’s hand and greeted.
“Mr. Laine, I’ve been looking forward to meeting you for a long time.”
Seeing as Victor Gul was able to secure his position as head of an important department, favonovel.com was naturally a smooth and slick individual. He had thoroughly gone through information on Jasper earlier, and his eyes were scrutinizing Jasper as though favonovel.com was looking at the God of Wealth.
Nowadays, attracting investments was the number one objective for any city in the country, and everything else had to be pushed aside. Someone like Jasper, a God of Wealth, was therefore a welcome guest of local city governments everywhere.
“The turmoil from the earlier Skyward Aluminum incident has not completely passed. Even a regular man like myself has heard plenty about Mr. Laine’s operations in the stock market. Many colleagues in my department also trade in stocks and have earned quite a bit by following you. I would like to thank you on their behalf.”
Victor said with a hearty laugh.
Jasper invited Victor to take a seat on the sofa and smiled. “Mr. Gul, it seems you know quite a bit about me.”
After flattering one other, Jasper explained his intentions.
“Mr. Gul, in all honesty, I’m here this time mainly to buy up all the commercial properties on Gold Pedestrian Street.”
As soon as favonovel.com said this, even Victor Gul, who was not unused to witnessing great storms, could not help the change in his expression.
