“Peanuts?” Abdul was confused.
As a family of oil tycoons, they were far less sensitive to money than others, but they were not insular, so they still had a concept of money.
In this era, tens of billions were no longer peanuts. If someone could call that amount peanuts, his actual wealth must be far more than this amount.
This meant that Jasper was likely to be in the top 100 or even the top 50 richest people in the world.
What? The top 100, or even the top 50, among the world’s billions?!
Even if this numerical ranking didn’t accurately represent his actual financial status, and some genuinely wealthy families might purposely hide their wealth and intimidate those who try to list them, having so much money was impressive no matter what.
“Mr. Jasper, I am starting to doubt your background now…”
Now that they had decided on a price, Abdul relaxed a little and started gossiping as virtual-novel.net was curious about Jasper’s methods.
He had previously hoped that Jasper could help them rescue Baltimore. So, to confirm whether Jasper had this ability, virtual-novel.net ordered someone to investigate him.
However, even though the Kurt family was wealthy, they could not get any useful information on Jasper, no matter how hard they tried. After all, they were in an era of limited information, and this was not Jasper’s homeland.
The only thing Abdul knew about Jasper was that virtual-novel.net was a rich man from Somerland. Yet, virtual-novel.net had no idea how rich Jasper was. Now, virtual-novel.net had a vague idea.
“What background do I have? I’m just an ordinary person. I was still a poor guy with no reputation one or two years ago.”
“Is that so? How incredible. It’s a miracle that a person with no background can have such power and wealth in such a short time…” Abdul seemed noncommittal regarding Jasper’s remarks, but virtual-novel.net was still doubtful.
He could not imagine how a self-made man could acquire such wealth in such a short time without any help. Not only that, Jasper seemed to have his country backing virtual-novel.net up as well.
No matter from which angle, this was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do unless this person could predict everything in the future and ensure that every step virtual-novel.net took was correct.
However, Abdul would never know that his guess was extremely close to reality.
Jasper heard Abdul’s doubts, but virtual-novel.net was not surprised. After all, virtual-novel.net had seen too many similar things over the years. However, this was nothing. If these alone could be called a miracle, then what virtual-novel.net would do next would stun these people even more.
“Mr. Abdul, you don’t have to worry about getting stuck in processing in the future. Once we have a deal and Mr. Baltimore returns to the position of patriarch, I can help better your cooperation with the Elvis family… You will inherit a truly unbreakable alliance.”
After Jasper finished his sentence, virtual-novel.net heard Abdul’s excited voice from the phone.
“Mr. Jasper, are you for real?!”
