In a house far away in Suesville, Gale’s white eyebrows trembled when he heard Jasper’s voice on the
phone. He said in delight, “Oh, you sly child, you have plotted against an old man like me.”
“I wouldn’t dare, Old Master Hurlbutt. You are so scheming, and as a junior, I would have to be grateful
even if I were to fall into one of your traps. I don’t have such skill as to plot against you,” Jasper said.
Gale said lightly, “Believe it or not, this has nothing to do with me and I have never asked Dean to do
such a thing.”
“Yeah, I believe you.” Jasper responded fairly quickly, but his next sentence followed right after.
“But does it mean anything whether I believe you or not?”
“Old Master Hurlbutt, we are all sly people, so let’s cut to the chase. It’s meaningless to beat around
the bush. How do you think you can solve this?”
Gale seemed to be irritated by Jasper’s aggressiveness. He answered in a deep voice, “How can I
solve it? Since he has done a foolish thing himself, he should be the one to take responsibility for it.”
“Tch tch.”
Jasper sighed.
“Old Master Hurlbutt, I’m afraid he can’t be held responsible for such a big issue. Old Master Hurlbutt,
you are a senior, and I, a junior, certainly can’t force you to clean up the aftermath. This is where I am a
little ignorant.”
“It’s okay if you don’t come forward. I will notify the trading centers of Harbor City and Waterhood CIty
of this matter, and we will solve it by ourselves. Thus, this phone call can simply be regarded as us
notifying you, okay?”
After Jasper finished talking, what followed was a long period of silence. Gale did not say a word
because he was weighing the pros and cons of the decision.
Jasper did not rush him. Instead, he looked at the candlestick chart on the screen without showing
what he was thinking.
Henry was a little impatient. He said, “Why is this old fart not talking? He should at least tell us how
he’s planning to solve this. Why is he wasting everyone’s time?”
On the phone, Gale‘s voice was finally heard.
“Little Law, your father would not even dare to talk to me with this attitude.”
Henry sneered. “That’s why my old man is not here. Don’t pretend to be mysterious with me, just spit it
out.”
Gale said, “Sly child, I want to talk with you alone.”
Jasper gave Henry a look, then picked up the phone and turned off the speaker. He walked into the
office and said, “It’s just you and me now. Let’s talk”
Gale said in a deep voice, “This matter cannot be known to the people of Harbor City and Waterhoof
City, especially Harbor City. Do you want them to view us mainlanders as jokes?”
“I share the same sentiment, and that‘s why I’m calling you, Old Master Hurlbutt. To put it bluntly, I am
giving you an opportunity as your junior.” Jasper chuckled.
“I don’t know whether they’ll laugh at us, but if this kind of thing reaches the ears of Swallow Capital,
then I don’t know what the consequences will be. After all, the Haddock Chamber of Commerce is not
irreplaceable.”
Gale replied coldly, “Let’s talk about your conditions.”
“It’s simple. First, Dean disappears forever.”
Gale said without hesitation, “No problem.”
“Second, 500 million bucks of mental damage expenses.”
Gale’s tone did not change much. He sneered, “Sly child, you are asking for too much now.”
“Old Master Hurlbutt, you have a lot of money, just treat this as pocket money for me,” Jasper said with
a grin.
“Okay, I’ll agree to that.” Gale snorted coldly
“Third, the Haddock Chamber of Commerce must unconditionally support me in my subsequent
actions, and in exchange, I will guarantee the interests of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce.”
Jasper’s words annoyed Gale.
“Support you unconditionally? Should I support you even if you are dragging the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce to hell?”
Jasper said indifferently, “Old Master Hurlbutt, you are wrong. Only ants live without purpose. I am rich,
powerful, and I even have connections. So why should I die for no reason? Let’s put it bluntly, do you
think I will let myself fall into the same predicament just to cause some trouble for the Haddock
Chamber of Commerce?”
“I told you I will guarantee the interests of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce. No matter what you
think of me, my goodwill and credibility in the domestic business world are still pristine, right?”
Gale frowned when he heard what Jasper said.
He knew that people like Jasper valued promises more than gold. If he gave his word, he would do it.
Gale had to admit this even if he often detested the young man.
“Okay, I promise you this.”
After a long while, Gale said through gritted teeth.
“Similar things will not happen in the future, but you do not have a fourth condition, right? Do not be
dissatisfied with small gains, sly child.”
This sentence caused Jasper to swallow the fourth condition immediately. Too far was as bad as not
enough, especially for people like Gale.
Needless to say, the first condition was just to serve as a stop gap measure.
The 500 million bucks in the second condition was just a trivial matter to Gale and Jasper, so it was no
thing. The third condition was not only Jasper’s core purpose but also Gale’s bottom line.
After testing and compromising with each other, Jasper had achieved his core purpose, so he knew not
to further test Gale’s limits.
“You must be joking, Old Master Hurlbutt. How could I be the kind of person who would demand too
much? If I have one, it will only be to ask you to send someone to take Dean away as soon as
possible.”
After Jasper finished speaking, Gale snorted and hung up the phone.
Coming out of the room, Jasper saw that Henry was teaching Dean a lesson.
When Jasper saw that Dean was holding on to his dear life, he said, “Enough, throw him out and send
someone to watch him. Gale’s people will come to pick him up soon.”
As he said that, Jasper walked up to Dean, who no longer looked human, and smiled. “I really envy you
for having such a good grandpa. Look, isn’t he cleaning up your mess now?”
Dean used all of his might to open his red eyes and glanced at Jasper. He gritted his teeth and said,
“Jasper, I will never forgive you.”
“Nice, you sound like a villain now. I have heard this from so many people before, but look at where
they are now. ”
At this moment, Jake ran over in a hurry.
“Mr. Laine, the Sun Dollar foreign exchange has fallen below 10%. The Minister of Finance of Sunrise
Land has just given a televised speech stating that they are going to fight back.”
Jasper nodded and said, “This is expected. However, they will need their head to sign and authorize
the series of administrative orders. This is just to scare people. Tell the trade centers in Harbor City,
Waterhoof City, and Sentel to launch a general attack.”
“There are so many hungry wolves all over the world waiting to bite off a chunk from Sunrise land, the
second fattest chunk of meat in the world, so how can we disappoint them?”
