“If that’s the case, did Mr. Joe also tell you that there’s always an exception, especially in the business field? Although experience is crucial, do you know that it’s taboo to say that experience is everything?” Jasper said with a smile.
Kayden shrugged and said in a breezy manner, “That’s why I’m here.”
Jasper chuckled. There was no denying how extraordinary both father and son were that they were able to become the richest people in Somerland in the future.
On the way, both Jasper and Kayden seemed to have a tacit agreement against talking about business in the car. Instead, they chatted about their experiences just like any ordinary friends and while they were at it, they sighed at how quickly the Mainland was developing.
After the previous evening party, Joe had become the major investor to invest in the Mainland among the four richest families in Harbor City. This was in line with Jasper’s experience in his past life.
In the next 15 years after the year 2000, Joe would have invested more than 120 billion in the Mainland. This was an astronomical amount.
This indirectly showed how jaw-droppingly high Joe’s wealth had expanded in 15 years.
Apart from everything else, at least Jasper now knew that he was not going to get 120 billion even after selling off Joe Langdon.
The pair’s total assets currently stood at around 40 billion.
US dollars, of course.
Jasper then recalled the 16 billion dollar building construction fee he was fretting about and could not help but sigh at how many wealthy people there were out there in the world.
From their conversation, Jasper learned that although it seemed like Kayden had come to the Mainland this time because of a call from Jasper, he was actually interested in several investment opportunities in the Mainland as well. He had already intended to come over and check things out. It did not matter if he departed earlier or later, hence he thought he might as well use this opportunity to show Jasper an adequate amount of respect.
The duo came to the hotel and found a table in an executive lounge. Kayden and Jasper sat facing each other. They both knew that real business was about to begin.
They were both extremely busy men, and every minute wasted could cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore, they did not have the time for idle chats.
