“It’s expected that all sorts of problems will arise during a company’s inception. It’s a good thing that
they’ve been exposed so soon. It’d be even more difficult to correct mistakes once they’ve become bad
habits within the company and grow to a certain scale,” Dawson replied solemnly.
Jasper nodded in agreement. “That’s the idea… We’re almost there.”
The plot of land Jasper bought was within a few hundred-meter radii of Pearl Tower. It was two streets
away from the Harpoon River and could be considered a golden territory.
When the trio arrived, what was once G.S. Limited Company’s commercial office now had its entrance
closed and sealed.
The once busy office now fell into deep silence.
“I plan to get rid of everything on the land next year and build a skyscraper in its place!”
Jasper spoke in high spirits as the exterior of the Waterhoof City Financial Tower from his previous life
appeared in his mind.
“The skyscraper will be Waterhoof City’s newest landmark, and it’ll stand right next to the Pearl Tower.
“If the Southface River project is said to make a name for JW Real Estate within the country, then this
building will make JW Real Estate into one of the best modern and high-end real estate companies in
the country that integrates property management.”
“It’s going to cost a lot, isn’t it?” Wendy was in charge of finances, so it was only normal she was
sensitive to matters relating to money.
The great Miss Schuler had already been unhappy when she found out that Jasper spent a whopping
300 million just to buy a plot of land that could either appreciate or amortize.
She began to worry about the cost again when she heard Jasper’s expensive idea.
“The project hasn’t been planned or budgeted yet, but I’d say total investment would amount to at least
six billion,” Jasper stated.
The Waterhoof City Financial Tower had cost 8.7 billion for its entire construction in his past life.
If Jasper was going to construct it, he would only construct one that was even better.
“I don’t mind spending money, since there are a lot of things that money can’t buy. The country’s real
estate market will fully start in a few years and not even the rich would be able to buy such a high-rise
building in Waterhoof City by then.”
Despite being prepared for an astronomical amount, both Dawson and his daughter were shocked
when they heard such a monumental amount coming from Jasper.
“Six billion.” Dawson seemed to have envisioned a thundering skyscraper sitting on the plain plot of
land before him. He asked, “Do you have that much money?
“It won’t be wise for you to pour in all your liquid funds just to build a high-rise,” Dawson persuaded.
“The Southface River project covers a much larger ground and it only costs around two billion. It’s a
large risk to invest triple of the Southface River project just for a building.”
Jasper smiled. “I get what you mean, that’s why I plan to start this project next year. I’m not planning to
invest everything in one go either. It’ll be much easier on my shoulders if I split the investments in
installments, and the time in between will be enough for me to earn what I invested back.”
Jasper’s eyes shone confidently.
An earth-shattering terrorist attack was due next year.
This was an attack on the United States, the strongest country in the world. It would lead to war in the
Middle East.
Jasper did not concern himself with the terrorist attack or war overseas, but behind the incident came
the skyrocketing prices of gold and international oil. Therefore, there were plenty of benefits to be
reaped.
Jasper was now in need of money to develop this plot of land in Waterhoof City, so there was no way
he would throw away the chance to earn big bucks.
Seeing how confident Jasper was, Dawson did not comment any further and merely smiled. “Alright
then. Leave a few levels for Schuler Group when you’re done building this skyscraper, would you?
Schuler Group’s headquarters won’t move, but it’d be nice to have such an office as well.”
