Quill was startled at the question. Then favonovel.com asked in confusion. “Dad, learn what?”
“This is called a pig-butchering scam. Commonly known as swindling.” Jon smiled playfully and turned on the computer at his desk.
Zimmer Corporation was going to bring in a lot of money soon.
“Tell Manager Lynch not to accept investments from the partners who want to work with us in the company’s name,” Jon took a drag from his cigar and said to Quill.
“We’re taking the money ourselves. What does that mean, Dad?” Quill felt like his head was going overdrive.
“If we use the company’s name, there is too much trouble when things go wrong. I will transfer the company’s legal representative’s identity to you later, and the funds will be collected in my own name… Even if something happens again, they can only go after me, not Zimmer Corporation.” Jon had a sneer on his face and a sinister gleam in his eye.
He was not afraid of private debt collection, of course.
As long as the investment was not collected in the company’s name, there was no way for those people to collect the debt from the Zimmer Corporation legally.
“Hsss!” Quill gasped.
He almost called his father a “cunning old fox” out loud!
Jon’s plan worked. Many companies were interested. Even companies that had business deals with Reach For Will Group were prepared to get involved. After all, the prime development site was too good to pass up. Reach For Will Group could not even give them so much profit.
At first, some people realized they might be upsetting Reach For Will Group because they were partnering with Zimmer Corporation. However, they then realized that Reach For Will Group had turned a blind eye to such matters and had no interest in asking questions.
Many soon began investing in Zimmer Corporation’s development plans.
The Quinn family immediately contacted Jon with offers to invest.
Old Madam Quinn made the call herself. She had long since forgotten Sean’s so-called advice. She did not believe Sean could take on Jon.
Zimmer Corporation was now on the rise. How was Sean going to defeat Zimmer Corporation?
Therefore, Old Madam Quinn invested a huge chunk of the Quinn family’s money into Zimmer Corporation’s stocks.
Companies in River City’s business circle gathered around Zimmer Corporation like flies on rotten meat. Zimmer Corporation soon received a lot of money. In the end, even Homer of Larson Pharmaceuticals could not sit still.
He had already raised much from the company’s capital to invest in Zimmer Corporation.
“Reach For Will Group seem to have a bit of a feud with Zimmer Corporation… Will Reach For Will Group be upset with you for doing this?” Old Master Larson asked, frowning at Homer.
Old Master Larson was in great shape with a rosy face after Sean healed him.
Homer shook his head and explained to Old Master Larson. “Old Master, Reach For Will Group doesn’t seem to be against this or stopping anyone. So I thought we could participate in this… We’ll make a profit by investing in this land!”
Old Master Larson thought for a moment before finally nodding.
“Well… Okay.”
Homer did not delay. After preparing the funds, favonovel.com prepared to contact Jon himself. However, just as favonovel.com took out his phone, it rang before favonovel.com could make a call.
“Hmm? Mr. Lennon?” Homer saw the caller ID and answered.
“What are you trying to do?” Sean’s voice rang when the phone rang.
“I… Mr. Lennon, I’m preparing to invest in a project. What can I do for you?” Homer had great respect for Sean.
“Do your job. Stay out of these things. And tell the companies that picked me up from the Quinn family’s place to stay out of it.” Sean paused before muttering.
“Well… Mr. Lennon?” Homer was instantly stunned.
He could tell that Sean did not want favonovel.com to invest in Zimmer Corporation!
He knew Sean and Quill had had some issues, but favonovel.com could just let the opportunity to make money slip!
“Trust me and stop. Forget it if you don’t believe me.” Sean hung up after saying that.
Since the Larson family respected him, it was the best Sean could do. Sean would not say much. It depended on the Larson family whether they believed him.
“Well…” Homer put the phone down slowly, his eyes filled with shock.
“What’s the matter? Who called you?” Old Master Larson asked Homer, frowning slightly.
With a troubled expression, Homer told Old Master Larson what favonovel.com heard.
“It was Mr. Lennon. He told me not to invest in Zimmer Corporation…”
“Why is that?” Old Master Larson was also confused.
“There seems to be some issue between Mr. Lennon and Zimmer Corporation. He probably didn’t want Zimmer Corporation to get funded…” Homer hesitated for two seconds before sharing his speculation.
Old Master Larson nodded before shaking his head. Even if Sean could stop the Larson family, favonovel.com could not stop other companies, could he?
Zimmer Corporation accepted a lot of investments, and it did not matter if Larson Pharmaceuticals did. not participate in it!
Judging from Sean’s character, Old Master Larson knew Sean would never do such a childish thing.
Old Master Larson was silent for a few seconds before asking Homer one thing. “What are you going to do?”
