Wendy huffed. Then, when she was about to speak, Dawson walked in from outside the dining room.
Old Man Dawson silently walked to the dining table and placed two boxes of pills on the table before turning around to leave. He did not say a single word throughout the whole process.
Jasper and Wendy looked at each other whilst feeling slightly stunned. However, when the two of them saw the pills Dawson
brought them, they felt extremely awkward.
What pills were they? Two boxes of folic acid pills.
All experienced husbands and wives knew that this was a supplement that all men and women needed to take to prepare for pregnancy.
Jasper rubbed his temple. His father-in-law had gone insane from wanting a grandchild.
Wendy quickly reached out her hand to move the folic acid away. Her face was slightly red when she grumbled, “My dad is really something else. Why did he bring me something like that?”
“He’s giving us a diplomatic note I guess,” Jasper said with a smile.
Wendy did not dare to answer him. She blinked as she pointed at the television screen where the news anchor was still communicating with a so-called special commentator. Wendy said, “Is he right?”
“I guess so.” Jasper nodded.
“Unfortunately for people in this circle, most of the news broadcasts are severely delayed, so their professionalism should be recognized. This is basically the situation, and his point of view is correct.”
“Which means you’ll really affect the global economy once the United States commences trading and you start your fight with Wall Street?” Wendy asked.
Jasper waved his hand and said, “That is a bit of an exaggeration. It’ll just affect the financial circle at most. However, now that the global economy is being increasingly integrated, finance is the core component of the economy. If some financial problems occurred, it would be a great blow to the economy.”
“If the global stock market falls sharply, winter for various industries will come early this year. Wealth will evaporate and capital will shrink, causing a chain reaction.”
Wendy did not say anything as she just stared at Jasper blankly.
“What are you thinking?” Jasper asked curiously.
Wendy slowly turned to look at Jasper. Her pupils slowly focused again and she slowly gathered her wandering thoughts before she stared at this man’s face.
“I didn’t expect you to get to this stage so fast. You were a nobody in school, and even after you started your business, you were always so low profile.”
“Right now, you’re able to fight against the biggest economic system in the world and the strongest capitalists. The result of your fight will influence the economy of the world. If a man can get to this stage, it seems the heavens will be good to him.”
When Jasper looked at Wendy who was looking at him with stars in her eyes, he chuckled and walked behind her. He placed his hands on Wendy’s soft and round shoulders before massaging them slowly.
“I’m just doing something I want and think I should do.”
After Jasper said this, his tone changed. He started to jest, “In the end, I became the focus of the world. I’m very surprised too.”
“You’re so annoying!” Wendy detected that Jasper was mocking her and she grumbled before slapping Jasper’s hand away. “Okay, I need to go to work now.”
“It might start to get very stressful. You should delegate your work whenever you can. You don’t have to do everything yourself. It’s not worth getting worn out over,” Jasper exhorted.
“I thought you weren’t going to care about the company anymore. Right now, everyone in the company is anxious. Despite the shortage of capital, thankfully Terizone and Abbylon can support themselves now.”
“We don’t even need to worry about Sena. The profits they reaped last month was second only to the electronics company. The real estate company is miserable as always. A lot of big projects that are about to be done have all stopped because of funding problems.”
“Ask them to think of a solution first. Why should we keep them if they keep looking for headquarters whenever they’re in trouble? Sean is so unreliable now.” Jasper said with a frown.
“It’s fine. Sean is very stressed too. He also knows the company’s situation right now, but he still managed to get a lot of things done after bracing himself.”
“I know about the financial situation of the real estate company. We have to cut the funds in half for all our projects. I heard they even created a new sales method by selling the property in advance so that they can easily raise funds.”
“A few days ago, he dropped by for a meeting, and I saw he had more white hair on his head. Don’t cause too much trouble for him.”
“Selling the property in advance?” Jasper said in surprise.
He knew that in his previous life, the concept of pre-sales in real estate only emerged in later years. It was first developed by the top five famous real estate companies in the country. No matter how much it has been criticized, one had to admit that such a brand-new sales routine had greatly eased the financial pressure of the real estate development company and shortened the capital recovery cycle.
Unexpectedly, Sean was the first to propose such a concept due to financial pressure he was facing.
“Yeah, you don’t say. I’ve looked it up and this presale proposal can cut the capital return cycle in half. Plus, the house buyers are not so opposed to the idea, so I find it very creative,” Wendy smiled and said.
