Life at The Top novel Chapter 45

“You’re not going to hammer the market again?” Wendy asked, astonished.

“If even you assume that I’ll hammer the market, then there’s no doubt that Zayden will think so too. He has to save Heavenly Dragon Real Estate, while all I want is to crush him.

“Not to mention that I’m not interested in playing in such a small pool with him. Heavenly Dragon Real Estate is hardly any high-quality stock. It’ll only be a matter of time before inflated stock prices would plummet. He has no shot at saving this market.”

Dawson agreed with Jasper’s words.

Despite not understanding how the stock market worked, doing business was built on the same idea. When a company only had so much to provide, it did not matter how people hyped it, for the company’s market price would not exceed its performance by too much.

After all, investors were not fools.

“Alright then. That’s it for today, we’ll deal with it again tomorrow. Come back with us for today, Jasper, you can stay at our home.” Dawson’s words were shocking.

Wendy made a small sound and began to shuffle on her seat. She glanced at Jasper then back at Dawson.

The more conservative part of Wendy told her that it would not be very ‘ladylike’ of her to have Jasper stay over at their house.

However, Wendy’s heart did not reject the notion.

In fact, her thoughts began to spiral in a fanciful direction… ‘Isn’t this… cohabitation?’

Wendy’s cheeks flushed greatly at the word that drifted through her head and she turned her face away so that no one would see the ripple of emotions in her eyes.

“It would be my pleasure.” Jasper gave a small smile as he took in Wendy’s embarrassed yet charmingly unrestrained appearance.

Dawson laughed aloud and brought the two of them downstairs.

“Using the money you borrowed from the bank for construction, you’ll only need to pay 35% of the whole cost. Let the contractor pay the rest of it in advance, and only pay them back after the construction is completed.

“In that case, Schuler Group will only need to come up with 20,000 at most for a project requiring 100 million in funds.”

What Jasper spoke of was a common trick that many real estate companies would employ in the future. It may not seem much to him, but it had opened a large door to Dawson when the latter heard it.

“That’s… very promising!” Dawson was extremely sensitive when it came to sniffing out good businesses, and with Jasper’s reminder, he realized that this was a viable option after a moment of thought.

“Would you be interested, Jasper? My connections with your funds, we can do this together,” Dawson suddenly said.

Jasper’s eyes sparkled at the suggestion.

While Schuler Group did have an issue with funding, it would no longer be an issue if Jasper were to help them meet the requirements. Once the matter of funds was resolved, it would no longer prove to be impossible for Schuler Group.
