Henry, who rarely heard Jasper speak in
such an urgent and serious tone, did not
hesitate and decisively agreed.
Seeking out Zachary for other things was
definitely more useful than asking for
Henry’s help, but if you needed to find
someone in Harbor City, it was clear that
Henry, the overlord of Harbor City, would
be the better choice.
After an hour, Jasper received a call from
Henry.
“I found her. She is going to the mainland
from Lowe District. She’s alone and
doesn’t appear to be threatened or
coerced. My boys didn’t bother going up t
o disturb her when they saw this. As for
what happened during this time, I still
need some time to figure it out.
“So do you want my boys to go over now, o
r?”
Jasper frowned slightly and glanced at the
time. It was 30 minutes before closing.
“Don’t. I’ll go over now.”
Jasper’s words stunned Henry.
“What? Are you going there?”
Jasper said, “Yes, this matter is very important, so I have to do it as soon as possible. I will arrange the rest of the matters, so don’t worry. How are your plans with Conrad?”
When Jasper finally asked the important question, Henry said with a smile, “What else can happen? Of course, everything went well. We are negotiating with Layman and waiting for the Langdon father and son to enter the game. They are already anxious now and they are contacting Layman’s executives closely. It seems that they are afraid that we’ll take this piece of fat first.”
“Layman’s requirement to provide insurance to small and medium banks in the United States have not changed?” Jasper asked.
As someone who was reincarnated, Jasper saw through the dirty tricks of the United States government at just a glance.
This was also the fundamental reason
why he realized that he was
unconsciously cooperating with the
Uninst Statis government to make a
poisonous cake.
Providing an insurance policy to the small
and medium sized banks in the United
States would be digging one’s own grave.
Jasper knew very well that this subprime
mortgage crisis would cause 10% of the
United States’ small and medium sized
banks to go bankrupt while the savings
and financial compensation involved
would form a super sinkhole of more than
100 billion US Dollars.
Even all of Somerland capital and the
capital from the people of the United
States could not fill it up, let alone Half
the Harbor Langdon. Otherwise, why
would they look for someone to take the
fall.
On the way to the airport, Jasper asked his people to prepare his plane. Once he arrived at the airport, he would fly directly to Cavern City.
Two hours later, Jasper landed at Cavern City Airport.
Since Henry’s men had been following
Celine, Jasper found her easily.
When Celine, who was wandering aimlessly on the street, saw Jasper appearing in front of her suddenly, she was so surprised that she could not speak.
“You… You… You….”
Jasper chuckled softly when he saw the
speechless Celine. “What? Are you
surprised?”
At this moment, Celine came back to her
senses, and she said in horror, “Why are
you here?”
Jasper said, “I heard someone has been fired by the company, so I quickly came over to ask them if they are interested in working for me.”
People were coming and going on the street. However, in Celine’s world, the bustling flow of people and cars seemed to have suddenly disappeared at this moment, leaving only the warm smile of the man in front of her with stars in his eyes.
“But shouldn’t you be in Nauritus City now? How can you leave your post willy nilly at this critical time?” Celine asked. She was struggling to control her voice and hold back her tears.
“There is no special situation happening
today, so I took off work half an hour
ahead of schedule and took a two-hour
flight over here.”
Jasper chuckled and continued, “So? You haven’t answered me yet. Are you interested in working for me?”
“But I don’t know anything else,” Celine said aggrievedly.
“I’ll start a bank. I’ll start one for you to manage.” Jasper’s tone was unquestionably firm.
“This time, no one can fire you. Also, let’s come up with a trap and make Colossal regret their decision of firing you dearly. What do you think?”
Looking at Jasper, who had a smirk on his face like a kid conspiring to steal candy, Celine could not hold back her tears anymore and she threw herself into
Jasper’s arms.
