Life at The Top novel Chapter 2029

Jasper froze when he heard his comment, but his temperament, which had been trained through the turbulence of the world, stopped him from showing any expression on his face. In addition to that, what happened had already passed, and moving toward the future was the key now.

The crippled Brown smiled and looked at Jasper. Then, he patted Jasper on the shoulder. The crippled Brown understood very well that a financial trade war would always be a war without gunpowder or smoke. Like all wars in the world, once the war began, the general public would suffer.

“We in Somerland are now trying out a new path, but no one knows what that path will look like. All we can do is to keep an eye on every level, including you, Jasper…”

Jasper did not understand. He frowned slightly, pondering the man’s words.

Why did the crippled Brown seem to want to protect him based on what he said? This matter was definitely not that simple.

“Did something happen?” Jasper asked.

The crippled Brown nodded. “There was a little interlude, but it didn’t matter much. They’re all clowns and buffoons, but Jasper, you know, you could lose the entire United States market.”

Jasper‘s frown deepened, suddenly remembering the scene of him meeting Soros in the morning. He said he wished for Jasper to have a good dream, but he should be waiting for this time to come.

The United States pursued individualism and attached great importance to money. Due to this, they would threaten the lives of anyone who were to touch their money.

“Wall Street is shutting you out.”

After hearing this news, Jasper was not surprised. He did not speak, but instead, he took out a teacup and poured a cup of tea for himself. “I expected that. After all, I did touch their cake. Since they’ve released this news, they’re just waiting for my attitude now.” Jasper said calmly.

Looking at Jasper‘s indifferent face, the crippled Brown chuckled and said, “The country is going to block you, yet you are not worried at all.”

Jasper spread his hands helplessly.

“I can’t do anything anyway. After all, that’s their court and I‘m not a glutton. Do you think I can devour them in one go? When I become really gluttonous in a few years time, then we won’t suffer that grievance anymore.” He said this very casually and with a half-smile on his face.
