Chapter 228

“I’m buying a piece of land to develop it,” Jasper replied resolutely.

He had memories about the future and knew areas where housing prices would rise dramatically, so naturally, he would not do tacky things like being a middleman.

“You need a large capital to enter Harbor City’s real estate industry,” Zachary said.

Jasper nodded even though his total wealth had already reached ten billion.

Of the ten billion, two billion would be left in the Harbor City’s stock market to make money.

1.8 billion had been invested in Advent Entertainment Group.

There was only 6.2 billion cash left in his hands.

Though it seemed like an awful lot, it was still not enough to enter the real estate industry.

“Let’s wait until Harbor City’s stocks recover.” Jasper chuckled lightly, sounding extremely confident.

Jasper needed the Laws’ help to watch over the two billion investment funds that Jasper gave to Jake. Zachary was aware of this.

“With your ability, I’m sure you can make a fortune out of the two billion. But how much can you make in the short run? In my opinion, Harbor City’s real estate will launch early next year,” Zachary asked curiously.

“It’s enough. When the time comes, the two billion will triple,” Jasper said lightly.

Everyone at the table was startled.

There were only two months left before the end of the year and at least four months to the beginning of next year.

300% profit in four months?

Henry looked at Jasper and thought how he was constantly deepening his understanding toward pomposity. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

There was no limit to this person’s pomposity!

…When would he ever get to this stage?

Had those words not come out of Jasper’s very mouth, others would have regarded him as a fool by now.

“Sure, I’ll order someone to invest according to your list.” Zachary laughed.

“Let’s make a fortune together. When the Laws’ capital comes in, we can then make advance stock speculations. It’s a good thing,” Jasper said with a smile.

The Langdons’.

With a bang, a magazine was thrown far away. Mitch stared at Terra’s Financial Weekly on the ground with gloomy eyes and raged, “Are these editors crazy? How can a man like that go on a cover!?”

Bob sat on the couch and said lightly, “Don’t get so angry, Mitch. I’m not surprised to see him on Terra’s Financial Weekly after what he has done.”

“The things he said are really novel, eh?” Kennedy said.

Mitch sneered. “He’s only making those bold and arrogant claims to attract attention. I can’t believe those rubbish media are actually currying favor with him! Does he really think he’s now Harbor City’s king?”

“Mitch,” Kennedy looked at Mitch and said faintly, “If you can’t bring yourself to recognize your opponent’s strength, then you will forever remain at the bottom of the ladder.”

Mitch’s expression darkened as he gritted his teeth. “I can’t stand his arrogant face.”

Bob glanced at both father and son before saying meaningfully, “He has officially acquired Gladness Entertainment Movies, renamed it Advent Entertainment Group, and divided it into three major business groups. He seems ambitious and wealthy.”

Mitch sneered. “He’s only trying to court people’s favor with his nonsense. Does he really think he’s capable enough to enter the entertainment industry?”

“Well, after taking a look at his plan, I can say that you’re right. Today, he fired Joseph White, a veteran who previously worked for Michael. Joseph came to me to ask for a job,” Bob mused.

Kennedy raised his eyebrows slightly. “A veteran? He must be really familiar with Gladness then?”

“At least this saboteur will create enough trouble for him,” Bob chuckled and said viciously, “Since he has invested heavily in the entertainment industry, we will then knock him down and suppress his arrogance.”

Mitch said excitedly, “That’s right! We can’t allow him to keep being so arrogant! Who does he think he is? He’s just a country boy acting absurdly in Harbor City. We must teach him a lesson.”
