Life at The Top novel Chapter 1041

On this ordinary morning, Jasper arrived at the construction site with Julian in tow.

He had not informed anyone of his arrival and came to look around by himself.

The skyscraper had already taken its initial shape and the concrete foundation of the main construction sight had been complete. With that, one-third of the 666-meter skyscraper was already constructed.

The scorching sun shone over the construction site and countless workers were busying themselves in all corners of the site. The quiet rumble of machinery could also be heard.

Construction materials laid about everywhere and there were six tower cranes as tall as buildings operating on the site.

“All of this is money,” Jasper sighed as he looked up at the tower cranes suspended in mid-air.

These tower cranes were rented on a weekly lease. Installation was 200 thousand each and rental was another 100 thousand regardless of whether it was put to use or not. Jasper also had to pay the operators of these tower cranes, and each skilled operator cost him at least 30 thousand a month.

It was currently the year 2000 too.

Jasper had spent 3 million per month on this expense alone.

The man found his heart aching at the thought of these expenses during such a time where money was tight.

However, the costs now were nothing in comparison to the profits he would earn once he succeeded.

“Hey, hey, hey! Who are you people? This is a construction site, all you unrelated people need to leave.”

Jasper heard a shout from behind as he observed the construction. He turned to see a worker in charge of overseeing the site walk over and speak unkindly.

However, Jasper was not angry even though he had been shooed away impolitely, especially considering the man was only doing his job. Instead, Jasper replied with a crescent-eyed smile, “I was just taking a look when I walked by. I’ll be going now.”
