The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 

Although this house was warm and cozy, it was too small for their family. 

“Dad, I’m going out for a while too.” 

Without any hesitation, Haylan drove directly to Lightdom City to check out the buildings there and to compare their locations, access to transportation, educational support, and so on. 

The results were unsatisfactory! 

He didn’t like living in those neighborhoods, nor did he like living in a suite. It felt like he was being kept in captivity Even his entry and exit had to be controlled by the property management. 

Haylan pondered for a while. In the end, he found a real estate agency and enquired if there were any houses close to Ruglane District for sale. He wanted to buy the land as well 

Queenie, Harris, George and the others all attended school in Ruglane District. He could not buy a house too far away. Therefore, he wanted to buy a building between Newlane District and Ruglane District! 

“Sir, buying a building here requires millions in capital,” the female agent said. 

“So expensive?” Haylan was stunned. 

Eight years ago, before he left his hometown, the tallest building was only about 200 thousand dollars. 

Now, it actually cost two million dollars? 

Wasn’t the cost of real estate rising way too quickly? 

Could it be that real estate was driving the country’s growth? 

“You can only buy this location for two million dollars. It’s only three floors. The transportation might not be that convenient. If you change to a better location close to the subway and school, it might cost you more than six million dollars,” the female agent said. 

She was a woman in her thirties. She was good-looking, a seven out of ten in terms of her looks, but her figure was an eight out of ten. She was curvy and exceptionally hot. 

After hearing this, Haylan suddenly felt that the 1 million dollars in his card was a pitifully small amount. 

“If I had known that real estate was so profitable, why would I have gone overseas to be a mercenary? Even if I shuttled through the rain of bullets and sacrificed my life in a mission, it wouldn’t be as valuable as a house.” 

Haylan lamented in his heart. He felt that his years of hard work seemed to have been in the wrong direction. 

However, he was only complaining for the sake of it. 

Although real estate made money quickly, his mercenary troop was not to be trifled with. Today, he had mercenaries all over the world and owned even more businesses all over the world. He owned countless gold mines, diamond mines, rare earths, oil fields, and so on. 

All else aside, the oil fields and gold mines alone were enough for him to squeeze into the ranks of the world’s richest 

He remained calm on the surface and said, “Six million dollars it is. In three hours, help me find someone to complete the procedures. If you find him, I’ll give you 20 thousand dollars. Can you do that?” 

With that, he took out 20 thousand dollars in cash from his wallet and placed it on the table. 

When the female agent saw the money, her eyes immediately lit up. She looked at Haylan with even more enthusiasm and said eagerly, “Sir, don’t worry. Our real estate agency is the most efficient. We promise to complete the task according to your requirements. 

Thereafter, she signed a contract with Haylan and exchanged names and contact details. 

Haylan learned the name of this female agent, Nicole Johnston. 

He transferred another 20 thousand dollars to Nicole before leaving. 

Money could make the world go round! 

He believed that with money driving her, Nicole would definitely do her best to find a suitable property for him. 

“Six million dollars for a property is ridiculous. 

“Even if I borrowed money from Lucy Zabel, I would be too embarrassed to ask. 

“Looks like it’s time to look for Declan Jackett.” 

Haylan drove straight to Declan’s house. 

 

Having taught Declan a lesson the last time, he was now very clear about the location of Declan’s residence. 

After arriving at his residence, Haylan looked at the two right-storey-tall mansions and fell into deep thought. 

Fuck! 

This was the city center! 

Wouldn’t the property prices here be even higher! 

Without another word, Haylan immediately initiated a video call with Nicole to ask about the value of these two tall buildings. 

He ended up receiving a precise answer. If these two tall buildings were to be sold, each would be worth at least 16 million dollars. However, she did not know exactly how much they were valued at because she had never sold such tall buildings before. 

“Declan Jackett, you motherfucker!” 

After Haylan received this news, he was so angry that he even wanted to kill someone. 

Each building was worth 16 million dollars! 

One could imagine how carefree Declan had been with his money all these years, while his family continued to live an extremely difficult life because of this. 

The more Haylan thought about it, the angrier he became. He took out his phone and called Declan, only to realize that Declan had blocked his number. He could not get through at all. 

“Declan Jackett!” 

Haylan’s eyes flashed with coldness and killing intent. 

He had given Declan time to gather the funds only because he had wanted to get back the money that belonged to him. But Declan actually dared to block his number. He was clearly trying to avoid him! 

“Do you think I won’t be able to find you if you hide?” 

Haylan thought for a moment and took out his phone to call Dominic Zabel. He said in a deep voice, “Mr. Zabel, I want you to help me investigate someone. Don’t worry. I definitely won’t use your resources for nothing 

“As long as you help me complete this matter. I’ll give you a remedy so that you guys can nurse your health.” 

“Doctor Jaber, you’re being too serious. Please go ahead.” Dominic said with a smile. 

“Declan Jackett, I need to know where he is now,” Haylan said in a deep voice. 

“Ill give you an answer in ten minutes.” 

After saying that, Dominic immediately hung up. 

Haylan played with his phone and waited quietly with a cold gaze. 

Putting aside the Zabel family, even someone like Reign Labenz was powerful enough to find out about him in an instant.
