That night, in a coffee house in the province, Jasper met with John after a long time.
“You’re finally back. I’ve called you to meet up so many times but you weren’t in the province.”
John laughed as he spoke, pulling Jasper into a hug when the two met.
Jasper chuckled. “I was working on something in Swallow Capital for a while, so it took me some time
to get back… But I have to say that I was surprised to hear that you’re also in the province when I
called. I thought you were still over in the towns.”
At that, John smiled. “Thanks to you, I got transferred to the city branch as their vice president in
charge of the credit system. I just came back to the province to participate in the provincial ICBS
presidential study meeting.”
“You got promoted? That’s got nothing to do with me. I’m pretty sure it’s all your hard work.” Jasper
smiled.
John shook his head. “You know how it is with banks, we’re evaluated by deposit indexes. The
accounts you opened with me alone already doubled, tripled our outlet’s indexes.
“Had it not been for such a great client like you, it’d be another five to six years before someone my
age could ever be a vice president in charge of the credit system in the city branch.”
Jasper chuckled. “Tell me if you need to raise more deposits. I can easily get it done.”
Jasper’s words were implicit, for he could indeed move at least ten billion worth of cash. Even if he had
invested in something and it took up quite a bit of his funds, he still had Schuler Group which was a
huge source of liquid funds.
With currently ten billion in his personal account, Jasper could easily meet the city branch’s annual
target.
John replied gleefully, “You’ve already done a lot for me and I don’t want to bother you about this. Plus,
you know how it is with target indexes, they change it every year. If we meet it this year, then they’ll just
raise it for the year after. I’d much rather it go slow and easy.”
Jasper smiled. “Let’s get back on topic. I came to look for you today because there’s something I’d like
to ask.”
John immediately turned serious at that and replied, “How can I help you? Tell me and I’ll do my best to
help.”
Having learned how the social system worked, John had long learned to speak according to the person
he was talking to.
When it came to Jasper, John had no plans to hide anything.
If this was at the very beginning when the two were still using each other for mutual benefits, then the
difference in their social standings and identities would now be miles apart with the rapid and
continuous increase in Jasper’s wealth.
However, Jasper had not once looked down on John even when the other was no longer useful to him.
If anything, Jasper would still take the initiative to contact John every three to five days and catch up.
Plus, just as John said, Jasper had played a huge role in his promotion, though it was not by putting in
good words for John. The bank’s system worked by focusing on the deposits gathered.
Jasper’s personal account had a few billion sitting inside, and John was well aware that with such a
large deposit, there would definitely be other banks and other bankers trying to ask Jasper to deposit
his money with them.
John might not even be able to provide the same amount of services those other banks could.
However, Jasper had never once withdrawn his money to deposit anywhere else. This was an
achievement under John’s name.
If anyone wondered what a favor was, then this was it.
Perhaps because he had seen enough of lies and deception, John exceptionally treasured his
friendship with Jasper.
Jasper was not privy to the thoughts that ran through John’s mind and smiled. “I remember you said
something about having an old colleague who works as the office manager in ICBS’ Waterhoof branch?
I think it was during a dinner quite some time ago.”
John was stunned and asked, “I do. Why are you asking now, though? Did something happen?”
