Life at The Top novel Chapter 722

“Mr… Mr. Laine, you bought half of Gold Pedestrian Street?” Sean exclaimed in shock.

Jasper smiled. “Not half.”

Sean let out a sigh of relief. It would be too much of an arrogant brag if he told others that half of the biggest pedestrian street in the country belonged to his employer.

“Two-thirds.”

Jasper’s following words had Sean completely sold.

“Property like this is worth keeping, we’d earn a living purely off of rent. Treat this as the future company’s fixed assets. Unless absolutely necessary, don’t touch them,” Jasper instructed.

Sean immediately understood what Jasper meant and nodded. “I understand, Mr. Laine. I’ll watch over these properties.”

Once arriving at Waterhoof City, Sean immediately went to manage the business for the real estate company.

From the forming of the company to the construction of its managerial ranks to the hiring of employees as well as things like deciding how the company would be interior-decorated, it would be several more months before anything was ready.

Sean would have to run between Nauritus City and Waterhoof City for the near future.

Jasper was planning to use this as a chance to test Sean. If he had managed to supervise the final touches of the Southface River project while taking care of matters here in Waterhoof City, then Jasper would consider pushing Sean up the ranks and officially passing the real estate company to him.

All financial decisions, senior executive employment, and final say were in both Jasper’s and Wendy’s hands. Jasper did not care what the people below him thought.

Whether someone was promoted or demoted would be up to him.

Since the investment company’s meeting ended and the company’s organizational as well as power structure was made clear, Jaser could finally be said to have his forces and team on hand.

In this unremarkable power structure, Jasper was undoubtedly at the very top where he could decide who stayed or left.

Jasper had come to Waterhoof City this time for two things.

First, Morgan’s team would be coming to Waterhoof City for the second time and Jasper had to confirm the final design.

Second, Jack’s Sena was about to open its online gaming studio here in Waterhoof City. the base of United Legends was decided to be stationed at Waterhoof City and this was where United Legends would make itself known to the public.

The next day after he arrived at Waterhoof City, Jasper saw Grant again.

“We’re finally done with our final draft, Laine. I hope you like it.” Straight from the airport, Grand no longer harbored the courteousness and doubt he once did. Now, he was filled with enthusiasm.

After all, Jasper’s 120 million US Dollar commission fee for a design was the biggest order he had received over the past two years.

Regardless of whether someone was from the east or west, people tend to be very enthusiastic before a large client.

Jasper smiled and shook Grant’s hand, he spoke, “I heard that you’ve fired two designers who’ve been following you for years over this design?”

Jasper smiled. “Waterhoof City will become one of the world’s financial centers in the future, a place just as magnificent as London, as New York in the States, and Eastern Capital in Sunrise Land. Waterhoof City’s rapid development will only repeat itself in every other City in this country.”

Grant widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at Jasper. After a long while, he shrugged and replied, “Alright, Laine. This is your country, I understand that you want it to develop for the better.”

“Whether you believe me or not Grant, time will prove my words true,” Jasper replied calmly.

Then he looked at Grant sternly. “But if you continue looking down on us because you think being in a capitalist country makes you better, you will be the ones making a loss.”

Grant thought that Jasper was just attacking him so he shrugged and spoke, “I understand, Laine. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you’re very satisfied with the rest of our partnership.”

As the best architect in the world, Grant was respected everywhere he went, Except, things were different in front of Jasper.

He had to make sure and take care of Jasper’s emotions, for his little trick before had shown him that Jasper was not easily fooled.

All of this was because Jasper was rich. 120 US Dollars was enough to motivate ninety-nine percent of the human population to do anything.

Jasper was too lazy to explain himself seeing how Grant did not believe him. After all, these westerners had gotten used to being arrogant, assuming that Somerland was nothing more than a poor and underdeveloped country. It would be another seven years until the Olympics was over before their mindset started to change.

“Let’s look at the design you brought over then. I’ll be mean and keep it real now, that if I find out this isn’t your design, the partnership ends here and I’ll sue you for fraud in that damned New York Court of Law.”

“Somer descents sure aren’t to be trifled… or at least, this Somer descent is truly not a someone to be messed with,” Grant murmured as he stared at Jasper’s back.
