I'm A Quadrillionaire novel Chapter 190

Chapter 190
“Yes, Mr. Lidell. Our office is on the thirty-sixth floor,” Pearl replied.
“Did you rent it?”
“Yes, but we only rented half a floor.”
“Half a floor?” David asked in a raised voice.
When those who followed behind heard this, their hearts tightened.
Was the big boss mad?
Was it because they were too wasteful?
However, there were only 40 plus people so renting half a floor of an office building was indeed a bit extravagant.
Half a floor could accommodate at least 100 people.
Some companies would even manage to fit 200 people if they squeezed a little.
No wonder the big boss was angry.
However, although this big boss looked courteous, he was very stingy.
It seemed that they should not get their hopes up for the double bonus at the end of the year.
“Miss Pearl, it seems you didn’t take my words to heart,” David said angrily.
Pearl was somewhat confused.
At first, she thought David was blaming her for being wasteful.
However, based on her understanding of David, he definitely would not blame her in front of s o many people for such a trivial matter.
Thus, she was at a loss on how to answer for a while.
Not to mention the people behind them.
They were all terrified.
This big boss just arrived, and he was giving them a show of strength immediately.
Sure enough, none of these big shots were easy-mannered. It was a shame that they just thought David was a good boss and it was their honor to work for such a boss.
It seemed that these big shots were all smiles but had evil intentions hiding behind that smile.
Seeing that Pearl was not speaking, David continued, “Miss Pearl, ask the landlord whether this office building is for sale later. If it is, buy it. East League International will go global in the future. Who are you trying to embarrass by renting half a floor of the office building?”
After David said this, everyone behind them was petrified.
Even Pearl failed to come back to her senses for a while.
Wasn’t this a little too extravagant?
They only had a little more than 40 employees, but he wanted to buy a 60-story office building?
These people were considered elites in various industries, otherwise, Pearl would not have paid a lot of money to poach them.
Some people had worked in their respective industries for more than 20 years and had come into contact with a lot of the mega-rich.
However, they had never seen one like David.
The bosses they had come into contact with would not spend money like this no matter how rich they were. Instead, they would only try to downplay the value of their employees.
“Mr. Lidell, there are only 40 people in our current team. Even if we will recruit some later, one floor is more than enough. This office building has a total of 60 floors. Are we renting the other floors out after we buy it?” Pearl came back to her senses and asked.
If he bought the building and rented out the other floors, it would be quite cost-effective. After all, the location where this office building had not been fully developed yet.
Once it was developed, then the price would definitely rise.
If he had the money to spare, he could make a long-term investment.
However, buying this building now would definitely cost a premium. After all, the other parties were not fools. If you could see that the price would increase in the future, the others would naturally see it too.
“There is no need to rent out. We are investing, not trying to be landlords.”
After David finished speaking, he thought for a while and added, “Call the landlord to make an appointment later and I will talk to him. I want to buy this place to prepare for a big fight in , Springfield.”
He was afraid that Pearl would mess things up.
If Pearl went to talk to the landlord, then there would definitely be an inspection and evaluation. Finally, the price would be reduced and the transaction would have half-failed by then.
“Of course, Mr. Lidell,” Pearl replied.
Now that David had made up his mind, she had nothing to say.
From what she knew about David, once David decided something, it was useless for her to object.
Besides, it was not her money. She was just an employee after all.
The two of them entered the office building and went to the thirty-sixth floor.
The people following behind them looked at each other and could see the disbelief in each other’s eyes.
They felt like they were riding a roller-coaster from the moment the big boss arrived, their emotions fluctuating the entire time.
