Life at The Top novel Chapter 1494

“What good calligraphy.”

When Galeheard Jasper’s praise, he grinned and asked, “Do you know where it came from?

“It was written by a famous calligrapher in the 15th century. While it looks like something you came up with at a snap of a finger, it seems to be describing a calmness that one has in the face of a catastrophe. Moreover, it also gives me this feeling of one watching over the fluctuating affairs of life indifferently. that‘s why it made such an impression on me.”

Jasper felt fortunate.

Before his reincarnation, one of his clients liked this piece of calligraphy the most. He spent 6 million bidding for this original work but unfortunately he failed. At that time, the 6 million was transferred from the stock account that Jasper held for him, so Jasper remembered this incident very well.

If it were not for coincidence, he would have made a fool of himself.

Gale had a genuine smile on his face and said, “Yes, this calligraphy is the one hanging in the study of its creator. There are thousands of calligraphy pieces and there are many absolutely wonderful pieces that are simply amazing, but I like this one the most.”

Jasper glanced at the painting and felt a little strange.

If this one in Gale’s study was the authentic one, what about the one his client bidded on during the auction in his previous life?

Although, judging from the timeline, there were still six or seven years before the auction was to take place. Despite this, upon looking at Gale’s current estate, he would not be reduced to selling his properties in six or seven years even if he spent lavishly.

It could only be described as a mystery.

After chatting for a bit, Gale sat down on his chair and asked Jasper and Henry to sit opposite him. Then, Gale spoke.

“I know why you are here.”

Gale went straight to the point.

“In principle, I agree to support you. After all, this is a question of principle. When it comes to this matter, any private thoughts and opinions must be put aside. I am well aware of this.”

Jasper nodded and replied, “I am impressed by Old Master Hurlbutt’s noble righteousness.”

After Gale looked at Jasper deeply, he said with a half-smile, “You sly child, stop trying to butter me up. I’m not finished yet.”

Jasper smiled and picked up the earl grey in front of him before taking a sip.

He was gesturing to Gale so that he would continue.

Gale lifted his white eyebrows and caressed the ring on his thumb. Then, he said slowly, “I can give you 2 billion US Dollars.”

Even if Jasper was prepared, his heart still skipped a beat. ‘This old man was so f*cking rich.’

“However, I am not investing this money in you.”

Gale smiled and pointed at Jasper. He continued, “I’m lending you this money, and you need to put up collateral for this.”

When Jasper heard this, he did not react On the contrary, Henry almost exploded with anger.

“What do you mean? We’re facing a catastrophe now. If we can’t handle this, the market in the country will be finished, yet, you’re saying you’re just lending us the money at this critical moment?”
