Life at The Top novel Chapter 240

”What’s the condition at the site?” Jasper looked at Mr. Lambert.

Mr. Lambert answered with a slight awkwardness, “The demolition work is not able to be completed because of the few families that refuse to move. Initially, we thought of starting with laying the foundation where demolition works have been completed, but because of the hindrances every day, we can’t start on that as well.”

“It means the site is demonstrating a halt in work and I have to witness all sorts of cash outflow every day?” Jasper asked calmly.

Mr. Lambert smiled bitterly and nodded.

Mr. Lambert’s body trembled out of fear when he noticed Jasper’s gaze getting colder.

He knew if he continued to make Jasper dissatisfied, then his position would be handed over to another person.

JW Real Estate was at a stage of developing its company, and the benefits given were way better than usual. If he was fired by JW Real Estate, for sure he would not be holding any position in Schuler Group as well.

He had to bear in mind that the person before him was the son-in-law of Schuler Group.

The chairman only had Wendy as his daughter, which meant his son-in-law would be the future boss. He could not afford to offend him.

“Mr. Laine, this is the report on the Zion family’s business which I compiled yesterday after I went home. I’m not sure if it’s going to be of use but please have a look at it.”

Jasper’s expression became much better when he saw the report Mr. Lambert was cautiously handing to him.

“The core of the Zions’ business is building ships.”

Jasper looked at the report in his hands, and his gaze showed signs of interest.

“Yes, Mr. Laine. Brac County is a city by the beach. It’s not surprising that the shipbuilding industry is more advanced. Old Master Zion was originally a technician in the national shipbuilding factory. Later on, he went to work alone in the oceans, and his business gradually became much better. He even bought over the national shipbuilding factory.”

“Right now, their main business is from cooperating with big companies in Harbor City. Every year, they will receive orders to build a few ships. I heard that one ship can easily earn them tens of millions of profits.
