At this moment, Old Master Law smiled and said to Jasper, “As a matter of fact, you’ll understand how to be a person after living long. The principle is the same when it comes to growing vegetables.
“From loosening the soil to sowing the seeds, fertilizing and watering, then waiting for the flowers to bloom and bear fruit; each process has to be done meticulously in its rightful order.
“Problems may occur at every stage. If the quality of the soil is not good enough, the seeds won’t grow. Too much fertilizer and the roots will burn, but too little fertilizer and they will wilt. Too much water and the veggies will be waterlogged, but too little water and they will dry up. Everything has to be just right.”
Jasper nodded in deep agreement. “The smallest piece of land may be no more than a few square feet, but it still possesses great wisdom.”
Old Master Law said cheerfully, “I heard from Zachary that you promised to help the Law family earn back the nine billion?”
Jasper said solemnly, “I’m certain of it.”
However, Old Master Law waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to feel pressured. The Law family enjoys making friends, even more so with young talents like you.
“When there’s a lot of money, it’s just a string of numbers. The Law family is still the Law family regardless of that nine billion. You don’t have to worry about it.”
Jasper smiled and said, “I am, of course, impressed that Old Master Law is able to look at the bright side of things, but I plan to seize this opportunity to lay a solid foundation for myself, so I can’t let it slip by.”
“If there’s anything you need, you can let Zachary know. The Law family will provide you with all the help you need,” Old Master Law said.
“Thank you, Old Master Law.” Jasper did not pretend to be modest.
Showing up in Harbor City and standing in the Law family’s manor had already proven the alliance between the two parties.
The Law family needed him, and he also needed the Law family.
The main intention when it came to helping each other out was to form an alliance.
“I’m tired, I’ll be heading upstairs to rest. You can look around the Law family’s manor while you wait to have dinner together in the evening,” said Old Master Law.
“Alright,” Jasper smiled and said.
The two of them walked out of the vegetable garden with Jasper right behind Old Master Law.
“Dad, don’t work on this vegetable garden anymore. Just leave it to the servants,” said Zachary.
“Grandpa, I’ll help you upstairs,” Anna said with a sweet smile.
“It’s still my granddaughter who understands me.” Old Master Law smiled and patted Anna’s hand, then said to Zachary peevishly, “You just need to mind your business. I don’t see any prospects from you even at this age, yet you still want to lecture me every day?”
Jasper stood beside Zachary and watched Old Master Law leave.
It would be too foolish to think that he was just an ordinary old man because of his appearance.
This old man was considered to be the real hero of Harbor City!
Like any other wealthy family, even the richest Caucasian family, the Langdon family, had encountered violent criminals kidnapping their son. However, the Law family had for many years stood firm against the wind and rain. No one from either law enforcement or the mafias dared to touch them and why was that?
It was because Old Master Law of the Law family was still around.
This old man was a big shot who had connections in both sides of the laws and clever means. The Law family had also been involved in arms dealings back in the early years.
Besides, very few people knew that the Law family held a lot of shares in the gambling industry in Harbor City. Back then, the king of gambling had offended Old Master Law and the latter said to him, “Never step into Harbor City for as long as I live.”
The king of gambling was so scared that he had yet to step into Harbor City till this day.
In the past, it was only after Old Master Law died did the king of gambling dare enter Harbor City free and easy again.
It could be seen that while Old Master Law had long retired and was busy with this vegetable garden every day, his name could still keep the entirety of Harbor City and Auma City in his control.
There was a saying that everyone in the elite circle knew.
Old Master Law was the first and only true top businessman since the economic reformation.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Old Master Law’s ability had surpassed the heavens!
