The lowest-end valuation of the price of a gambling license was above 2 billion US Dollars.
There was the fact that the Auma City government had not issued a new license for more than ten years. This was accompanied by the fact that they had made it clear that no new licenses would be issued in the next ten years.
This would be the only legal license in a combined period of more than two decades.
The rarer something was, the more valuable it would be. In such a rare situation, this gambling license would inevitably attract the attention of countless related and unrelated capital in the gambling industry.
An auction had always been a way to easily increase the value of an item several times over. Therefore, 2 billion US Dollars was just the starting price.
Meanwhile, the Godfather actually wanted Jasper to spend so much money fighting for this priceless object with nothing more than a vain promise. Moreover, after favonovel.com got it, the Godfather wanted to take half of the equity.
If this old man in front of favonovel.com was someone else, Jasper would have cursed right there and then.
“Godfather, if I don’t agree, will it affect what I discussed with you earlier?” Jasper asked.
The Godfather grinned and looked at Jasper. He said, “If you don’t want to work with me, of course, I’ll reconsider working with you.”
“I understand…”
Jasper nodded and got up.
“Henry, let’s go.”
After calling for Henry, Jasper turned his head and walked toward the yacht they came from.
The Godfather narrowed his eyes to look at Jasper’s back. He did not have any intentions of stopping Jasper.
Meanwhile, Jasper was behaving like a hoodlum. He walked very fast and did not have any intention of stopping.
When favonovel.com walked to the side of the yacht, Jasper jumped up and landed on the connecting deck Then, favonovel.com led Henry back to their yacht.
When Henry got there, Jasper lifted his hand to remove the deck connecting the two yachts.
At this moment, the Godfather could not hold it in anymore.
“Young man, deals are made after negotiations. You leave the moment something’s not to your liking. Do you think you can stay in this field for long with this way of doing business?”
Jasper lifted his head to look at the unhappy Godfather and said, “Godfather, I am not a great businessman but at least I have my limits. There are two kinds of business I won’t get involved in.”
After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com lifted two fingers and continued, “First, I won’t do businesses that betrays my conscience.”
“Secondly, I won’t do businesses that’ll make a loss.”
After the Godfather heard what Jasper said, favonovel.com laughed. “I’ve been in business my whole life and I know some businesses might initially look like they’re unprofitable, but you’ll still have to do it because it’s for the long-term plan.”
“If you first let others gain some advantage over you, you might later find an opportunity to make back everything you lost in the next transaction.”
Jasper smiled and shook his head. “I am not used to placing the profit and loss of my business on the gift or conscience of the opponent, so this kind of argument does not exist in my opinion.”
“Also Godfather, while it is true that you have conducted some similar businesses in your life, but never twice without thrice. Your opponent might not discover their conscience after your repeated compromises. The greater probability is insatiable
greed.”
“I think this is the reason why you only stayed in a small place like Auma City even though you have done business for decades, right?”
After Jasper said that, even Henry widened his eyes to look at Jasper, let alone the Godfather.
‘Damn, favonovel.com was slapping the Godfather right across the face by saying that!’
Henry started to feel excited after shaking off the initial shock.
Indeed, Jasper the Poser was not satisfied with just being a poser in front of Fabian. Was favonovel.com shifting his attention to a senior formidable figure like the Godfather now?
