Anna could not help laughing as favonovel.com listened to Jasper’s defense on the other end of the phone.
“Okay, I won’t talk about this with you anymore. I’m calling you today because I have something to inform you of… My grandfather will have his birthday in two days. So, you must come. By the way, bring Miss Maynard along while you’re at it.”
Jasper nodded and agreed, “Sure, this is no problem. I will definitely prepare a generous gift for your grandpa.”
***
Francisco Villas in the United States.
Half the Harbor Langdon, Sawyer, Kennedy, and others were here again. The main reason for the meeting this time was because their investment around Somerland had gone horribly not long ago.
Kennedy grumpily scolded, “I think Jasper will only be happy after deliberately driving us into a corner, but what good does it do him? We’ve all retreated abroad. What else does favonovel.com want?”
It was not just Half the Harbor Langdon and Sawyer who were investing around Somerland. Kennedy also transferred his largest factory, Red Apple, to Nam. However, that place was too backward. The country was small and had a small population. Furthermore, there would often be riots.
Not long after they built the factory, there had already been several terrorist riots. The people were always panicking, and naturally, the factory suffered many losses. Finally, after some discussion, these people concluded that if they wanted to invest in factories, they had to find a peaceful country. However, they could not go back to Somerland right now.
The only thing that could be done was to get together and scold Jasper to relieve the hatred and resentment in their hearts.
Sawyer inhaled and said, “That’s what’s going on right now. After Wall Street stocks in the United States were hit by that wave a while back, we predict that they will need a long time to recover. Therefore, they won’t give us any help at this time. Somerland is just over there but we can’t go back. So, this is what we can do for now.”
“But why?”
Kennedy could not stop himself from blurting out, “Why is Jasper given such high value in Somerland while we have to hide abroad?”
Half the Harbor Langdon glanced at favonovel.com and said lightly, “Since ancient times, the business world has been like battlefields. The winner will get the last say. There are no explanations for that. If we, not Jasper, had won that business war, then it will be someone else living abroad right now.”
This remark made everyone silent.
Finally, Half the Harbor Langdon finally said, “Okay, let’s stop fighting. What’s the point of fighting back and forth?”
Having said this, favonovel.com paused again. “We have a way of turning this matter around. I met Paulson of the Rothschilds two days ago. According to the information favonovel.com disclosed, although most of these foreign consortiums currently support a truce with Somerland, a small number of people have not reconciled and are prepared to try and compete with Jasper.”
“This includes Miss Bella Rothschild. If we can ally with Miss Bella, there will only be advantages and no disadvantages.”
Several people present fell silent after hearing what Half the Harbor Langdon said.
After a long while, Kennedy asked, “But I heard that Bella has a perverse temperament. What if favonovel.com doesn’t want to cooperate with us?”
Half the Harbor Langdon displayed an unfathomable smile.
“Hehe… No matter how perverse Bella’s temperament is, favonovel.com is a Rothschild, and you cannot change the nature of a businesswoman. As long as we show favonovel.com absolute benefits, I don‘t believe Bella will not agree to cooperate with us.”
