No matter where the merchants were from, anyone who wanted to exploit oil here had to obtain a license from the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce. This was done for better management and control, so as to avoid the recurrence of the chaos.
The merchants also agreed very much to the establishment of the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce.
Everyone knew that it was easy to do business in peaceful and prosperous times, and they would be the most miserable people during troubled times.
There were plenty of crazy people who would destroy roads and railways if they could not get their hands on the oil. If that happened, merchants could not transport oil out even if they had it, and could only worry. Moreover, with the presence of oil merchants from all over the country, the authority of the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce were sure to rise.
The rules had been set ever since. That was why Saul called Jasper over.
“Although you snatched the oil field from Cain, no one will care about it. After all, Cain himself was a bandit. But you still have to reapply to the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce for this oil production right…”
“You don’t want to be the next Cain, an oil businessman without paperwork, do you?”
Only then did Jasper understand Saul’s intentions, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
“Thank you so much, Mr. Jefferson, this was a great kindness… I will drink to this! If you need anything in the future, just ask!”
Saul also looked very happy watching Jasper downing his alcohol.
“We Somerlanders value returning politeness for politeness. You have helped my nephew so much in Somerland, so how could I neglect you?”
Jasper heard Rowan mention this matter, and Rowan often complained that favonovel.com was not taken seriously at home.
At first, Jasper thought it was because favonovel.com was too hypocritical, but now it seemed that it was true.
“Mr. Jefferson, you’re too kind, but I think Rowan is a nice person and has good work ethic. After l settle down here, I may bring favonovel.com over, so that you can reunite with him.”
When Saul heard this, favonovel.com also sighed.
”Sigh, that kid only remembers us elders scolding him. We just don’t want favonovel.com to be a disappointment. If favonovel.com could really become a talent, that would be great.”
When the two chatted, someone came in from outside the door to report to them.
“Boss, Mr. Murik has arrived.”
After hearing the report from his subordinates, a smile appeared on Saul’s face again.
“He’s finally here. Come, let‘s go next door. I have prepared a banquet.”
Jasper followed Saul and came to the private room next door only to find that there was also a table filled with delicacies.
They had just entered the room when they heard footsteps outside.
“Greetings, President Murik. Thank you for coming to this meal.”
Saul was very respectful towards Murik, and Murik was also very polite.
“You’re welcome, Mr. Jefferson. I don’t like to go to other people’s dinners. You are the only exception. What is the name of the famous Somerland wine you brought me last time? Dukant, was it? I still can’t forget how it tastes until now.” Murik could not help smacking his lips when favonovel.com said this, and Saul immediately understood what favonovel.com meant.
“President Murik, don’t worry. Leave such trivial matters to me. I will arrange for someone to order a batch of the highest-quality Dukant from Somerland another day and deliver them to you personally!”
During this period, Jasper did not speak but instead merely listened. He saw that Murik had gray hair and many wrinkles on his face. Even so, the other party was still wearing a neat suit. He looked very capable and energetic.
Having said that, Murik naturally noticed Jasper next to him.
”Who is this?”
“Oh, I forgot to introduce you… His name is Jasper Laine and he’s a well-known young businessman from Somerland.”
