This luxury hotel in front of favonovel.com was not Saul’s only property in the entire city of Bashra.
One could say that his industry covered culinary and entertainment, and it was not small at all. At the same time, due to Saul’s generosity and righteousness in the local area, favonovel.com was given the nickname Saint Saul. Even Jasper had to lament at this moment.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Jefferson to be such a legendary figure in the local area… It seems that Rowan was right when favonovel.com said that I should come to Qari to find you!”
After Jasper finished speaking, Saul also smiled slightly. “You’re too kind. Since you are the same generation as my nephew Rowan, how about I call you by name?”
“Of course, it sounds friendlier this way.”
Jasper did not care about this at all, and Saul finally asked the key question after favonovel.com had drunk and eaten enough.
“By the way, Jasper, I’ve always been a little puzzled… Somerland is so peaceful. Why did you leave such a good environment and specifically come here to do business?”
Jasper was unambiguous facing Saul’s question.
“Actually, I don’t intend to hide it from you. I’m eyeing Qari’s oil business.”
As soon as favonovel.com said that, Saul realized that favonovel.com had underestimated Jasper in front of him.
Saul also met many merchants in the city of Bashra. There were only a handful of people like Jasper who claimed that they wanted to get involved in the oil business. If such a person were not a real business genius, favonovel.com would either need to have strong funds and confidence, or favonovel.com was a liar.
Rowan trusted Jasper a lot, so obviously, Jasper was in the former.
Even so, Saul was very experienced, so favonovel.com said, “Oil business? Amazing! But, Jasper, there are only a handful of oil businesses in Qari that are allowed to get their hands on… I am one of them, so you have found the right person.”
As soon as Saul said that, Jasper froze for a moment. Because this entire time favonovel.com could not tell that Saul also had connections with the local oil business.
“Mr. Jefferson, are you also involved in the oil business?”
“Yes, to be honest, although I have a certain status in the local consumer service industry, you are also aware of the environment in Qari. There are always occasional riots, and I was also very distressed… Thus, I stumbled upon the oil business by chance,” Saul told Jasper that his involvement in the oil business was purely accidental.
About five years ago, a local came to Saul’s hotel. In the beginning, this person stayed and dined in this hotel, and favonovel.com seemed to be quite normal. Moreover, favonovel.com would spend a lot of money every day. Hence, based on Saul’s keenness as a businessman, favonovel.com asked his staff to keep a close eye on this man.
About half a month later, something happened. He could no longer spend as much money as before, and in the end, favonovel.com could not even pay the bill.
Unlike other money-grubbing bosses, Saul did not drive favonovel.com away immediately, but instead, favonovel.com called favonovel.com over for a meal and a heart-to-heart talk.
Through this meal, Saul learned that the person in front of favonovel.com was named Giovanni, and favonovel.com was also a local businessman. In the past, the reason why Giovanni was generous was that favonovel.com had an oil field under his name. Although the oil field was small, it produced oil that made favonovel.com worth a lot of money.
Unfortunately, something happened in the oil field half a month ago, and his investment in other fields failed, resulting in a large amount of his equity being embezzled. Giovanni would soon go bankrupt if this continued.
