The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 767

The Golden Light Hill tourism project was Beckett's misstep. Without finding a scapegoat to take on the responsibility, TPO stood to lose at least hundreds of billions.

Though TMO is quite powerful, they alone couldn’t handle the massive sinkhole that is the Golden Light Hill tourism project. Beckett needed more partners to share the burden. The more companies he roped in, the less blame he'd carry.

If he could get dozens of companies to sign contracts, each contributing tens of billions, he wouldn’t just cover the losses—TPO might even profit. This was Beckett's master plan.

After signing and sealing the contract, Jessica and Daniel left immediately. Jessica was eager to push the project forward.

Meanwhile, Beckett turned to the drunken Maya and inquired, "Maya, you mentioned a classmate of yours who is the chairman of Harmony Group, and they’re interested in taking over the Golden Light Hill tourism project?"

"Yes, Beckett!"

"Set up a meeting with him in my office in a couple of days. I want to see if he’s got what it takes to collaborate with TPO."

Hearing this, Maya was thrilled. Wyatt had been pressing her for an opportunity to pitch the project, and now Beckett was offering it himself.
