Julian seemed to have something favonovel.com wanted to say to Jasper on the way back.
Jasper asked, “What’s up? You can say anything that’s on your mind, Julian. No need for formalities between us.”
Julian scratched his head as favonovel.com said, “Jasper, will the person you called Director Gul be dissatisfied with the way you treated favonovel.com just now? It might be a problem if favonovel.com decides to make things difficult for you in the future.”
Jasper smiled as favonovel.com said, “Julian, I realize that you’ve learned how to read people now.”
Julian said rather shyly, “I’ve slowly picked up on some things after spending time with you, Jasper. But there are some things I still can’t understand.”
“Well then, I’ll explain it to you.”
Jasper looked out the car window at the scenes of Waterhoof City that were flashing by and said, “We cannot treat Victor Gul as an individual when we deal with him.
“He represents the city hall of Waterhoof City. As businessmen, we only engage in legal trading and make our earnings via legal methods. Our relationship is a cooperative one rather than subordinative. Of course, I’m willing to cooperate with the workings of Waterhoof City Hall, but at the same time, they can’t merely stay on the sidelines without lifting a finger when we’re in trouble.
“The way I treated favonovel.com tonight will be documented in a detailed report that will appear on the mayor’s desk tomorrow. Thus, this is my way of making my stand known to Waterhoof City Hall.”
Julian only understood half of what Jasper meant, but favonovel.com still nodded. He did not know that what Jasper had just told favonovel.com would be the real reason why JW Consortium could take the lead and dominate the market in the future.
“Jasper, how do you manage to think of so many things?” Julian asked curiously.
He sometimes thought that Jasper’s brain was different from the average person’s. He saw things as they were, but Jasper could manage to think outside the box.
“You learn to take more things into consideration after suffering losses,” Jasper said slowly.
He had suffered multiple losses due to his simple mind in his past life.
Julian was even more confused now. He had never seen Jasper suffer losses ever since favonovel.com started working for him. His opponents would always be the ones suffering losses… However, Julian did not ask any further questions. He knew favonovel.com would never attain the same level of success as Jasper in his life.
Jasper got a call from Henry when favonovel.com returned to the hotel.
“F*ck, are you having the time of your life in Waterhoof City?”
Henry, who was nearly drowning amidst a sea of project documents in his hotel room at Nauritius City, asked with a jealous expression on his face.
Jasper clicked his tongue as favonovel.com said, “The streets of Waterhoof City are filled with beautiful ladies. It’s a pity you didn’t come along.”
Henry was even more distressed and had a bitter expression on his face as favonovel.com threatened, “Don’t mess around. I won’t say more about Wendy Schuler since you guys got to know each other even earlier. However, as your future brother-in-law, I won’t allow you to continue being a womanizer after getting together with my sister.”
“Let’s get down to business. How’s it going with the matter I asked you to deal with?” Jasper could not be bothered to pay any attention to the man whose rationality was blinded by jealousy.
“I was just about to tell you. The chief designer from Gensler Design and Architecture Firm, Grant Morgan, will be rushing over with his team to meet you at Waterhoof City tomorrow.
“But I’m curious to know why you’re so insistent on using their design. Aren’t you going to consider the top architectural firms like SOM or KPF?”
Of course, Jasper would never tell Henry that in his past life, Waterhoof City Financial Tower only existed because it had been the design from Gensler Design and Architecture Firm that was selected.
“They might only be ranked fifth among the architecture firms in America, but their designs are not lacking compared to the four firms above them. Besides, design is something based on personal taste. There’s no such thing as the best design, only the design that best fits you.”
