Jasper did not have too great candidates for this position so the best solution now was to see if the Law family could help.
Jasper did not expect Zachary to actually provide him an exceptional individual.
“I have a junior who resigned from the Anti-Corruption Bureau as first deputy director half a year ago. He’s in his early forties, and the best age to start his career in a company.”
“After half a year of rest, he’s been planning to start his new career lately. I could introduce you two if you’d like?”
Jasper’s eyes lit up.
From an experience perspective, this man who had just resigned from bring the first deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau was the perfect candidate.
“He’s got a great future ahead of him if he became the first deputy director in his forties. Why did he resign?” Jasper asked.
Zachary replied slightly wistfully, “He was a sacrificial lamb in political fights. The judicial system wasn’t the place for him. Just keep this to yourself, but he’s definitely got a clean background.”
With Zachary’s guarantee, Jasper nodded and replied, “That’s great, then. I’d like to see him as soon as possible if I could.”
“Alright. I’ll send you two each other’s contact information and you two talk it out amongst yourselves.”
With the head of this supervision department now identified, the most important factor behind the setting up of this department was settled as well.
Jasper let out a sigh of relief once he had completed this first step.
Clocking out that afternoon, Jasper then brought Wendy back to the Schuler villa for dinner. Since there was nothing for him to do, Jasper stayed over at the Schuler villa that night as well.
His parents were both working at the shipyard in Brac County, so Jasper normally would not think to return to the empty house. Instead, he opted to stay at the Schuler villa, which was less quiet.
After dinner, Jasper received a call from Harbor City.
“Hello, is this Mr. Jasper Laine?”
A middle aged man’s gentle voice sounded over the phone.
There was a very strong Harbor City accent in the man’s tone. Thankfully, Jasper had known Henry for a long time, or he might not have understood this accent at all.
“I am. Is this Mr. Mortimer Higgins, whom Uncle Schuler had introduced?”
Mortimer replied on the other end of the line, “That is correct. I heard that you have plans to employ someone to be the person in charge of the supervision department. I’d like to try for the position.”
Jasper chuckled and replied, “It’s not very convenient doing this over the phone, Mr. Higgins. Perhaps you could come to Nauritus City over the next few days? We could talk in person. Regardless of how our discussion ends, I’ll pay for your traveling expenses.”
Jasper’s detailed and cautious behavior gained the favor of Mortimer, who normally dealt with judicial work. The latter quickly replied.
“Sure. I’ll take an early flight tomorrow morning and we can talk in person… Coincidentally, I also received an invitation to a Legal Exchange Conference in Nauritus City as well. So I might be a little late.”
“That’s alright. I’ll await your grand arrival tomorrow, Mr. Higgins.”
Wendy walked over with a cup of tea from behind Jasper as the latter ended the call.
“Was that a candidate to lead your new supervision department?”
Jasper nodded and replied, “He’ll be here tomorrow. Then we can both interview this ex-first deputy director of Harbor City’s Anti-Corruption Bureau.”
“Is he someone of such high status? That status is almost equivalent to the Deputy Attorney General’s of the Supreme Procuratorate! Would he want to work in our company?” Wendy was shocked.
Jasper chuckled and replied, “Don’t underestimate our company either. We’re very strong too, so who says we aren’t worthy to have someone so powerful work for us?”
