After a friendly negotiation with Vita, the trio’s conversation then shifted from business-oriented into
something more laidback to better acquaint themselves with each other.
While they were talking about issues of faraway lands, Jasper was very willing to put a bit of hard work
into what looked like nonsensical chatter.
Within the country, business was always a game of favors.
People like Vita were not eye-catching characters, and he would be considered as someone from the
lower classes among those whom Jasper dealt with on a daily basis.
However, Vita held a very important position.
Even if Jasper had called for a meeting with the chief of ICBS’ Waterhoof City branch, there was no
guarantee that he could haggle the price to 300 million Somer Dollars.
Yet with Vita, he could.
While the chief of the branch would certainly hold more authority than Vita, the chief had much more
things to think about. Vita was only in charge of this singular aspect, so mediation became much
easier.
That was why, in some ways, the lackeys held more power than the boss.
With John here helping the process, Jasper hoping to get Vita on his side, and Vita hoping to have a
millionaire like Jasper supporting him, the trio had a very joyful conversation.
The night deepened, and Vita bade them farewell first. John had a study meeting to attend the next
day, so he left Waterhoof City for the Southeast Province overnight as well.
Jasper did not say much about it, considering his friendship with John ran much deeper than his
friendship with Vita. The two shared tacit understanding, so there was no need for unnecessary
pleasantries.
“Isn’t he just the office manager of a branch? Why’d you spend five whole hours entertaining him…”
Henry immediately began to complain once Jasper returned, having lost his patience due to staying in
the room for a long time.
“Characters like him don’t even have the right to talk to me in Harbor City!”
Jasper hung his jacket on the clothes rack and huffed a reply. “This infinitesimal character that you look
down on just saved me 150 million tonight. You still think the five hours was a waste?”
“30 million in an hour?!”
Henry’s eyes widened, and he looked at Jasper suspiciously. “What kind of profitable business did you
do? You’re not conspiring to commit crimes, are you?”
Jasper smiled. “We definitely are. Want in on it?”
Henry immediately shook his head vigorously. “Forget it. My dad’s going to beat me to death if he finds
out.”
“Alright, enough joking around. How did the thing I asked you to do go?” Jasper asked.
Henry grinned and replied, “Don’t worry about it. I might not be able to do much else, but there’s no one
better than me when it comes to playing dirty tricks. I’ve already found everything.”
Henry then tossed over a freshly printed research document and replied, “Everything you need is here.”
Jasper took the document. His tone was pleased when he replied, “Not bad. I’ll remember your hard
work when this is over.”
Flipping through the document, there was an introduction to a character right at the start.
“Derick Mallin, 48 years old. He’s the general manager of the Hull family’s G.S. Trading Export Limited
Company. He’s the aforementioned company’s second-in-command with a longstanding friendship with
Ian, the company’s president. He’s the only confidante there is.
“Derick’s the one who deals with all of G.S. Trading Export Limited Company’s business transactions,
so if you want to know whether the company’s doing anything fishy or problematic, Derick would be the
one with the most blackmail material.”
“Think you can deal with him?” Jasper asked.
Henry pursed his lips and replied, “From what I got on Harbor City’s end, the man has migrated to
Harbor City permanently with his entire family. He has embezzled quite a bit from the company over the
past few years and all his family’s businesses are based in Harbor City. I can deal with him with my
eyes closed.”
Jasper smiled. “He shot his own foot. I’ll leave this to you, then.”
Henry snickered. “What do I get in return?”
Jasper gave it some thought and replied, “I’ll let you join me in taking over a large fortune next year.”
“Deal!”
