He heard that she had bid on another piece of land in some prime area of Springfield recently and the amount involved was as high as 30 billion. A deposit of 3 billion had been paid and they would only need to pay the remaining 27 billion after they were deemed qualified.This made David's lavish points rise from 152 to 442. If he added the pending 270 points, he would be well on his way to his goal of 1000 points.However, now Pearl's investment had been blocked and there was no more source for lavish points anymore. This was not acceptable.Although it was very important for him to go to Capital City, the premise was that he could not be dragged into a conflict.If he could not get more lavish points, he would not be able to increase his strength. If he failed to do this, he would not be able to guarantee his safety.In any case, his name was now on the lists of the two organizations, so there would be little to no effect whether he went a few days earlier or later.First of
“Miss Warner, to tell you the truth, if I, Gunther Daniels, just release a statement in Springfield, no one would dare to cooperate with you anymore. Even those who have cooperated with you in the past will try to squeeze you out. Do you believe me?”“Gunther, you rascal!” Pearl was flushed with anger.She had never experienced such a thing before.When she was the lobby manager of the Golden Leaf Hotel, she had dealt with some sanctimonious nouveau riche. Although they had their intentions toward her, at least they would not force her like this.And at that time, she was backed by the Golden Leaf Hotel who, in the South River Province, was definitely the number one power. Unless she volunteered, no one would dare to do anything to her.However, when she came to Springfield to face a young master like Gunther, she was a little powerless. The previous moves she used against those upstarts were no good against Gunther.After meeting two or three times, the other party was growing i
Pearl left, and although she had just gained the upper hand, she did not do anything to Gunther.It was not that she did not want to. When it came to a shameless and rogue person like Gunther, she wished she could go up to slap and kick him.However, after the project was suspended, she had learned information about Gunther. This person had a very deeply rooted background in Springfield. Ordinary people could not afford to provoke him as he was the famous local tyrant here.As outsiders, they were at a disadvantage compared to these local tyrants, so she did not want to cause trouble for David.Back in the room.Gunther recovered quickly.He smiled, put the wine glass in his hand to his mouth, and took a sip before muttering to himself, “Interesting, how interesting. It seems that this girl is not as simple as I thought! It's getting more fun, and I would like to see what kind of surprise this lass can bring me!”Pearl went back to the apartment, called David, and briefly explai
Rhonda grinned and did not answer, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to teach Gunther a lesson.‘How dare you touch my woman? You must be tired of living. Do you really think that Springfield belongs to the Daniels?’However, when she recalled that Pearl had said she had informed her boss, Rhonda decided to wait.She wanted to see this boss whom Pearl had been talking about all this time. She wanted to see if he could suppress Gunther, the local tyrant.Besides, it would not be too late for her to make a move even if he failed.However, it might not be enough.Even Gunther was nothing much, his brother Morris was one of the four young masters in Springfield.If they wanted to suppress Gunther, they had to get past Morris.Morris was not easy to deal with.On the other side, David was speechless when he received Pearl's call.He thought it was a big deal.Wasn’t it just a suspended project? Why was she was worried that she was not able to recover the money?Even i
When David arrived, he found Pearl waiting for him in front of the office building alongside all the employees.East League International now had three departments in its temporary office in Springfield.The legal department, which was responsible for drafting contracts and dealing with law-related matters, was composed of more than a dozen legal elites.The department head was a middle-aged man in his 40s who had been working in law for more than 20 years and was well-known in the Springfield legal circle.The investment department was responsible for inspecting and evaluating companies that needed investment or financing. Finally, it would draw conclusions based on various aspects. It consisted of an evaluation team of more than 20 people while Pearl was the department head.There were four people in the finance department, all of whom were elites poached from other companies. Pearl was also the head of the finance department.More than 40 people were neatly dressed and standin
“Yes, Mr. Lidell. Our office is on the thirty-sixth floor,” Pearl replied.“Did you rent it?”“Yes, but we only rented half a floor.”“Half a floor?” David asked in a raised voice.When those who followed behind heard this, their hearts tightened.Was the big boss mad?Was it because they were too wasteful?However, there were only 40 plus people so renting half a floor of an office building was indeed a bit extravagant.Half a floor could accommodate at least 100 people.Some companies would even manage to fit 200 people if they squeezed a little.No wonder the big boss was angry.However, although this big boss looked courteous, he was very stingy.It seemed that they should not get their hopes up for the double bonus at the end of the year.“Miss Pearl, it seems you didn't take my words to heart,” David said angrily.Pearl was somewhat confused.At first, she thought David was blaming her for being wasteful.However, based on her understanding of David, he definitely
David came to the office on the thirty-sixth floor. Then, he sat in the general manager's office and listened to Pearl recount the situation to him.However, Pearl hid the fact that Gunther was trying to take her to bed. She only said that he wanted them to sell the land to him at half the price.David actually thought it did not matter, and he actually wanted to sell it at half off!What he wanted was not to make money, so it did not matter if he lost out or made a profit. He only wanted the lavish points.As long as he spent the money and got the lavish points, everything else was trivial.However, doing so seemed to be a bit of a blow to Pearl and the others’ confidence.Plus, he would also create p a cowardly image of himself. If word about this got out, everyone would line up to bully him so how would Pearl continue to work in Springfield?How would the East League Capitals continue to grow?What was the point of even having the system if he continued to live so cowardly?
Gunther rushed to the agreed location with two bodyguards.One of them had a short stature, but it could be seen that he had very powerful explosive power. He was the champion of the underground boxing ring and had won 27 consecutive victories and KO-ed all of his opponents.The other was tall. He looked at least two meters tall and weighed more than three hundred kilograms. He was a foreigner who was said to have been a mercenary at one time.Although Gunther did not believe that anyone would dare to do anything to him in Springfield, after what he had experienced the last time at the Starry Night Hotel when several of his bodyguards were taken down by the two people brought by Pearl, he called his brother Morris and went to his underground boxing ring to pick two powerful people to protect himself.As a result, these two were chosen.Even though they were here to guarantee his safety, in reality, Gunther wanted them to kill the two people around Pearl the next time they were to
