What worried Zed the most nowwas that Wendy’s accident might cause the originally negotiated Ocean City Plan to be left stranded. If this was the case, although the Nine Dragon Corporation and the Boyles would not incur any huge losses, this project had succeeded in piquing Zed’s interest.
He believed that as long as it was an absolutely profitable business, coupled with JW’s cooperation, then this project would grow to become even bigger and at a faster rate than favonovel.com had ever imagined.
Zed’s main purpose for this trip was to determine whether the Ocean City Plan could continue. Fortunately, Jasper had given favonovel.com a reassuring answer.
“Mr. Walters, I don’t actually intervene in the Ocean City business, but I have another business here that I think has room for cooperation for the both of us.”
Jasper waved his hand to dismiss the servants from the room. Then, favonovel.com got up and took the empty bowl to fill some paella before handing it to Zed. This scene shocked Zed and favonovel.com quickly stood up to receive it with both hands.
Zed was also a famous rich man in Harbor City. Even if some people say that favonovel.com has the wealth and status today because of his status as the Boyles’ son-in-law, it did not prevent favonovel.com from being looked up to by the vast majority of Harbor City people.
However, who was Jasper?
To be more realistic, even if they were sitting together with the head of the Boyles, Jasper would be on the same level with them. This also made favonovel.com understand that the cooperation that Jasper was about to mention next was definitely not anything simple.
“It’s an honor that you’re willing to give me an opportunity and are willing to support me. If I can contribute, I will definitely not hesitate to do so, Mr. Laine.”
Jasper chuckled and said, “I want to buy some ships from the Boyles.”
These words stunned Zed. He did not understand what Jasper meant. Nor why favonovel.com said such things.
“Um… The Boyles don’t sell ships. Even if we do, it’s the ones that are going to be sold as scrap metal. Moreover, I am not the one you should discuss this with. I am only responsible for the business of the Nine Dragon Corporation.”
Jasper smiled and said, “No, you’re the one I should talk to.”
“What I want to buy are the ships owned by your family that are currently transporting the Atticus family’s rubber supply in Southeast Terra.”
As soon as favonovel.com said this, Zed’s face changed drastically.
Jasper did not keep Zed on tenterhooks. He took a tissue to wipe his mouth and said faintly, “The conflict between me and the Atticus family is irreconcilable. Since favonovel.com decided to kidnap my person, then I’ll light his several ships of rubber on fire. It’s only right to make the Atticus family face large-scale breach of contract and high price claims, right, Mr. Walters?”
When favonovel.com saw Jasper looking at himself with those shining eyes, Zed barely suppressed the storm in his heart and replied with a dry chuckle, “Yes, that’s right”
As if not aware of how insincere Zed’s words were, Jasper continued, “There are five ships in total, each of which is a huge ship with a displacement of more than 100 thousand tons. According to the market price, it’ll be worth about 45 million Harbor Dollars, so I’ll offer 400 million for those five ships. What do you think?”
Zed felt his scalp tingle as his throat tightened. He said with difficulty, “M -Mr. Laine, I don ‘t understand what you mean.”
“Don’t you? Then I will make it clearer.”
“If the five freighters that were loaded with all the rubber production of the Atticus family for the entire quarter were burned on the high seas, then the Boyles will not only receive huge insurance compensation but also my 400 million bucks. As for the Atticus Family, they will only get piles of breached contracts.”
