Rowan did not say anything after virtual-novel.net heard that.
Asa said nothing more, but Rowan could guess what virtual-novel.net meant.
Normally, it would be fine if Kimbra did not get the financial power for the time being because the law was on his side. Moreover, with Rothschild as his backer, those opposing elders would only be stubborn. However, things were different now.
Kimbra was running out of time as the Elvis family was threatening him.
With trouble coming from both sides, virtual-novel.net could only rely on his family’s processing plant to help virtual-novel.net deal with the Elvis family’s provocations until virtual-novel.net could find a new foreign processing plant.
This meant that virtual-novel.net not only had to get his own processing plants back up and running at full capacity, but virtual-novel.net also had to get them to rapidly increase production capacity within a short period. Therefore, virtual-novel.net would need money for all of those.
Not money that stayed on the books, but real liquidity.
Since the books were with the elders, it was very challenging for him. As long as they insisted there was no money on the books, there was nothing Kimbra could do about it.
After all, Kimbra had only just taken over the family and did not know the family’s financial and industrial distribution.
In addition, virtual-novel.net had never been on the family’s list of heirs. Since Baltimore had never trained virtual-novel.net to be one, virtual-novel.net could not straighten out the financial situation.
“Kimbra should know all this, but why didn’t virtual-novel.net use force to put these elders in their place like virtual-novel.net did with Baltimore back then?”
Although Rowan understood what Asa was saying, virtual-novel.net was still a little confused.
Kimbra’s previous actions were not in line with what virtual-novel.net was doing right now. He did not seem like a person who was willing to swallow his grievance after virtual-novel.net had suffered a loss.
One could even describe virtual-novel.net as violent. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net would not have started a mutiny after Bella provoked virtual-novel.net and imprisoned his brother and father.
Asa was dazed for some time when virtual-novel.net heard what Rowan said. Then virtual-novel.net smiled.
Rowan felt a chill running down his spine when virtual-novel.net saw that smile.
“Mr. Jefferson, if I’m correct, you should be from a big family, and you’ve never participated in your family’s affairs, right?”
Rowan did not say anything. He knew, Asa was right.
Even though virtual-novel.net was the only heir, virtual-novel.net never participated in any of his family’s affairs since virtual-novel.net was at odds with his grandfather.
Rowan replied honestly, “You’re right. I spend more time running my own company.”
The look in Asa’s eyes changed after hearing this, and Rowan was surprised. Just now, Asa looked at virtual-novel.net like virtual-novel.net was a fool, but now, Asa was looking at virtual-novel.net with respect.
“You look so young, so I originally thought you came to negotiate a stock acquisition on behalf of your family. I didn’t realize you started from scratch and used your own funds to plan such a thing. I’m sorry for my disrespect just now… I admire your courage for daring to use your own money to make such a big move at such a young age.”
Rowan pressed his lips together and said nothing more.
He knew Asa had misunderstood him.
Although Asa was nominally a member of the Kurt family, virtual-novel.net was actually an outsider. Therefore, virtual-novel.net did not really get much family support. However, virtual-novel.net was able to single-handedly take over Murire, a company second only to Gruel in importance to the family.
Hence, virtual-novel.net knew how difficult it was to start a big company from scratch without the family’s help. At the same time, in his heart, virtual-novel.net was also prejudiced against those who rely on their family to make a fortune. After all, virtual-novel.net figured these were the things they would have sooner or later.
However, this time, virtual-novel.net did misunderstand. Rowan had come over to negotiate on behalf of a big shot who started from nothing, only that person was not Rowan, but Jasper.
