Harbor City had just endured a financial crisis. Currently, its sky was so clear with sunny weather. Skyscrapers were standing tall under the dark blue sky. Each floor was shining, and there were lots of people strolling along the streets downstairs. Cars were passing by each other as well. Everything looked so lively. ”Don’t you wish to stand at the top of this city and enjoy its beauty from up here?” said Jasper.
Jake looked at Jasper’s back view and raised his brow. He had to admit that at that moment, he was indeed being mesmerized by the beauty mentioned by Jasper.
‘Standing at the peak of Harbor City? That will be an enormous honor.
‘That will really make my ancestors proud of me as well!’
It was also a target that made Jake keep putting in the effort. It was just that the target was way too far and hard for him to reach. Aside from fantasizing about it, Jake dared not think further about it.
However, Jasper did not just have the guts to think about it, he even blurted it out. Besides, he was also making a move toward it.
At least at that moment, everyone in Harbor City had come to know of the name Jasper.
“There’s no such thing as being enemies forever in the business world, only benefits exist. If you think that there’s a miscommunication between us from earlier, and to you, it’s a barrier that you can’t overcome, then you may leave this instant. I give you my word that no one will stop you.”
After listening to Jasper’s comment, Jake’s face twitched. Finally, he snorted and said, “Previously, I was the one who insulted you in the first place. Then later on, you made me kneel and grovel to you, forcing me to take you as my master. Doesn’t that make things equal?”
“Equal? Maybe.”
Jasper’s comment made Jake’s expression change for the worst. From the moment he arrived up to that point, Jasper’s words and actions made Jake think that he was intending to solve the issue. However, he did not expect Jasper to say such a thing after he surrendered.
“However, to me, business is business. You have your strengths that I admire, and it’s something that I need. This is the basis of our cooperation. It has nothing to do with other things. It’s only up to whether or not you want to cooperate with us.”
Jasper spun around. The curve on his lips at that moment was no different from a demon in Jake’s vision.
He could not think it through. ‘What kind of person will be able to really place their personal emotions aside when making a decision?’
Even if he previously had a very huge argument with Jasper, he should be discussing with Jasper with a calm spirit all just because he possessed an ability that Jasper needed?
‘Does such a person really exist in this world?’
“For a time period, I’ll be leaving Harbor City. When that happens, my investments in Harbor City will be under your supervision. You have the skills, but your temper is so bad. That’s why I don’t plan to give you the main authority. Without my permission, you can’t make any decisions by yourself.
“I’ll give you 5% of profits for your part for one year.”
Jake sneered, “5%, isn’t that way too low?”
“You can choose not to agree to it. You can just turn around and leave.”
At that moment, Henry came over and stood beside Jasper. He chuckled and said, “Of course, the moment you leave, I might end up giving you lots of trouble!”
Jasper frowned and looked at Henry, saying, “Don’t frighten him.”
After saying it, Jasper’s expression became awful as he said to Jake, “This is win-win cooperation. We’re gaining benefits from each other. There won’t be any revenge if you don’t agree to it.
“Both parties cooperating on their own record is the basis to a cooperation process that will be guaranteed to be a success.”
Hearing Jasper’s comment made Jake’s expression look much better. Deep within his heart, he started having a good impression of Jasper.
After all, when compared to Henry, Jasper was so generous that he could gain the respect of others.
“5% is too little. It’s so much lower than the market price.” Jake was already inclined to give in, but he insisted on gaining more profits.
It was normal human psychology.
Jasper gradually raised his head and said, “The investments in Harbor City that I’m about to hand over to you are not less than two billion. Now, do you still think that 5% is little?”
“What?!”
Jake was shocked and looked at Jasper, horrified. He was stunned by Jasper’s large sum of money.
