It was very rare for Jasper to see Henry desire something so passionately.
Thinking about it, Jasper realized it made sense. Henry’s family background ensured that he would
have everything he wanted.
Even though the Law family was much stricter with him, they would not throw Henry to a farm
somewhere to train his endurance like a ridiculous plot from a novel considering their wealth.
It was unrealistic.
A private plane, however, was a different story.
A private plane burned a lot of resources and while money did not mean much to the Law family, they
were rather strict. The only reason Zachary had a private plane was that there was no alternative since
he had to take frequent business trips since taking over the family’s business.
To Henry who had been given anything he wanted since he was a child, the best things to him were
those beyond his reach.
Henry had been extremely excited these days now that buying a private plane was no longer just his
wishful thinking.
Jasper took the pamphlet and flipped through it.
‘What the f*ck is this?
‘Helicopters too?’
“Which one do you have your eyes on?” Jasper asked, looking at Henry suspiciously.
“This one.” Henry pointed at a plane on the pamphlet and began to describe it, “The Dassault Falcon
2000. It’s 20.2 meters long and its main wings are 21.4 meters. Its height is 7.1 meters tall. This private
plane can fly up to a speed of 851 kilometers per hour and is estimated to be able to fly 7,030
kilometers in one go.
“It’s cool right?”
Seeing how proud Henry looked, Jasper replied, “It is. But this plane costs 80 million. Do you have that
much?”
Henry cleared his throat and whispered, “I borrowed 30 million from Anna.”
Jasper was shocked. “How did you persuade her?”
Henry sighed and replied, “I promised that I’d pay her back with interest in a year. And the money has
to come from a legitimate business.”
“And if you can’t?” Jasper asked with a smile.
According to his understanding of Anna, her conditions would only be backed up with countless
ruthless punishments.
As expected, Henry’s expression darkened. “Then she’ll confiscate my plane and freeze my credit
cards, leaving me to fend for myself for two years.”
At that train of thought, Henry sucked in a cold breath and glared at Jasper. “You’d better do something
instead of watching me suffer. I’m expecting you to start new companies and make them go public. I’ll
come and join in on the profits.”
“Don’t worry, it shouldn’t be too hard.” Jasper consoled him as he could not bear to watch Henry
wandering on the streets.
Henry immediately beamed. It was as if a nod from Jasper meant that making 30 million was no
problem.
He leaned over to Jasper and spoke gleefully, “This Falcon 2000 is perfect no matter how I look at it. It
has a cool appearance and awesome specs, so why don’t you get one too? Then we can ask for a
discount.”
“I’ve already decided.” Jasper tossed the pamphlet back to Henry and continued, “These aren’t good
enough for me.”
“F*ck you too, man!” Henry was enraged at how someone was bashing his precious love.
Harrumphing, he asked, “What are you buying, then?”
“When it comes to private planes, everything is child’s play compared to the Gulfstream series.”
Henry’s eyes widened as he looked at Jasper, and the corner of his lips twitched.
While he was upset about Jasper calling his Falcon 2000 child’s play, he did not have the courage or
the facts to argue since the man was comparing it to the Gulfstream.
There was too big a difference! Even the cheapest of the Gulfstream series cost at least 100 million!
Henry’s net worth was not even enough to buy that.
Henry looked at his pamphlet and his treasured plane no longer felt as valuable anymore.
Just then, Jasper had already made a call to Jameson.
“Jameson, could you contact General Motors for me? I remember that they acquired Gulfstream
Aerospace last year, and I’d like to buy a private plane.”
With Jameson at his disposal, it would be a waste for Jasper not to use him.
Not to mention that Jameson contacting them on behalf of Colossal Investments would be much more
efficient than if he went to look for them himself.
A wealthy man’s time was precious.
Jameson replied with an extremely envious tone, “Alright, I’ll contact them right away.”
After seeing the miracle yesterday with his own two eyes, Jameson now treated Jasper as a VVIP and
immediately went to contact General Motors.
A moment later, Jameson called Jasper back. “Laine, they’d like to ask you which aircraft you’re
interested in purchasing.”
“Has the first-generation G500 been manufactured yet?” Jasper asked, thinking back to his memories
from his past life.
If his memory served him right, the G500 should already have been produced. Flying at a speed of
Mach 0.88 kept the G500 as the fastest private plane for six years, until the record was broken by the
Gulfstream G650.
Still, the Gulfstream G500 remained to be one of the best private planes.
“Alright, I’ll ask right away. Please hold.”
Jameson brought another phone to his ear and asked before replying to Jasper, “They’re shocked as
the first-generation G500 was only commercially manufactured last month. They’ve just obtained a
commercial sales license but have yet to give an official statement.
“They’ll send someone over to talk to you about this in person tomorrow because they just so happen
to have two planes from their first batch on hand. They’re newly manufactured and if you’re happy with
the price, they can sell one to you straight away and you wouldn’t need to wait at all.”
Jasper nodded, evidently pleased.
In the future, people even had to wait to buy cars that were in short supply, let alone airplanes.
There was no reason for manufacturers to keep planes worth hundreds of millions in garages waiting to
be purchased, for it would take a toll on their funds.
Thus, most planes were preordered a year or two in advance and only paid when the plane had been
manufactured.
To have the plane right now was indeed the best option.
Looking at the time, Jasper realized that it was already Tuesday and he had a meeting with Winston
Benett on Wednesday afternoon. As such, Jasper said, “Have them come tomorrow morning. I’m busy
in the afternoon.”
Jameson replied, “Alright, I’ll pass the message along.”
Hanging up the phone, Jasper found Henry looking at him sorrowfully.
“I want a Gulfstream too,” Henry wailed pitifully.
“Then go make your own money. It’s not that nice always reaching out and asking your family for
money, is it? You don’t even get to choose what you want,” Jasper spoke.
“I know. But I want a Gulfstream now. Won’t you lend me some money?”
“I don’t mind lending you money, but tell your dad or Anna to ask me instead or they’ll hate me. They’re
hoping you use this chance and get yourself together. You need to stop wasting your days away.”
