However, this advantage meant nothing to Jasper.
Scott’s expression changed and he suddenly took a deep breath to say, “Look, Jasper. I admit that I shouldn’t have hurt your men. Now we’re even.”
“I came here to talk business with you. How about we negotiate, hmm?”
Jasper replied calmly, “Business? I’ve never seen anyone who claims to be here for business start beating people up once they walk through the doors.”
“Jasper!”
Scott raised his voice.
“You might be rich and JW Company might be powerful, but you spent 100 million to acquire Downstream Investment Company in Tefa City! You’ll gain nothing from making an enemy out of me! Don’t you at least know that?”
Jasper arched his brow.
Scott’s mind was racing right now.
It seemed like he was not a complete newbie.
“Sure, then. How do you want to do business?” Jasper asked calmly.
Scott’s expression turned excited when he saw that Jasper willing to negotiate.
“Simple. I want half of Downstream Investment Company’s shares. Then I’ll make sure that Downstream’s business goes smoothly here in Tefa City and no one will dare to cause us any trouble.”
Jasper chuckled when he heard Scott.
Scott felt his heart quake in fear at Jasper’s chuckle and asked darkly, “What are you laughing at? What is the meaning of this?”
“I’m laughing at how unrealistic your dream is.” Jasper had never planned to partner with Scott since the beginning.
“As I said just now, I’ve already acquired the company and I will start doing business. There’s no way I’d give you half of the shares just because you asked. Go ahead and show me what other tricks you have then, I’ll be waiting!”
Scott raised his hand angrily and pointed at Jasper, “Fine! Fine, then! You win this time!”
“But I’ll tell you too. I won’t let that stupid company of yours do business here in Tefa City, otherwise I might as well f*cking die!”
Jasper narrowed his eyes and looked at Scott icily before he said cahnly, “Alright, then. Let’s fight.”
“From what I remember, the Covingtons are in the real estate business, right? Half of Tefa City’s buildings were constructed by you. Good, I also have business in the real estate industry and I have a few buildings here in Tefa City.”
Jasper then pulled out his phone to call Sean, the person in charge of the real estate company.
“Check all our real estate yet to be sold in Tefa City. Any customer willing to purchase housing contracts will be gifted renovation worth 10% of their housing price, it can be used as a discount off the base housing price or redeemed for free renovation and electrical appliances.”
“And if our customers coming to buy our real estate come with their contracts with the Covington family’s real estate company, pay their compensation fee and raise the renovation bonus to 20%.”
