"Commander, I'm gonna do it then."Zander checked one last time before he left."Go ahead."It will all be over tomorrow."It's time to start construction in Campbell District too."Sean nodded slightly before waving his hand and saying."Yes!"Zander paused for two seconds before nodding in acknowledgment and turning away....The night passed quietly.The entire Joules Town was buzzing that night.The big shots in the business circle had back-to-back meetings.The meetings naturally revolved around Lennon Real Estate and Billion Trees Real Estate.Whether multimillionaires or billionaires, they all had one thing in common.They did not think Sean and Lennon Real Estate could succeed.They felt that Sean would eventually ruin Billion Trees Real Estate.Therefore, many people were waiting for Sean to shoot himself in the foot, and they could then sit back and reap the benefits.Besides them, many of the ordinary people involved with Billion Trees Real Estate were also
Sean asked softly, his hands behind his back."Pretty much."Zander glanced at the papers in his hand and nodded.However, Zander was still unsure.When Sean told him to gather everyone, he thought Sean's plan was crazy.With so many people gathered together, even a small thing could blow up into something big.After all, people liked to follow the crowd and have a herd mentality. If one caused a scene, the others would follow.Sean gathered everyone over. Was he not afraid of things getting out of hand?"Commander, I don't think this crowd is going to be easy!"Zander reminded quietly after checking the time."It's not going to be easy?"Wouldn't it be better to have everyone here and solve all the problems at once?"Sean smiled and shook his head before turning around slowly to go downstairs."They say money can't solve all problems."Then I'll show them today whether money can solve problems."Sean's voice rang in Zander's ears.However, Zander had no idea what Sea
Many people found Sean's move crazy, ridiculous, and naive.When developers handled unit owners' issues, they did it separately.After all, one person was easier to handle than a group.It was what Billion Trees Real Estate used to do, so the other developers did so too.However, Sean did the opposite.Instead of handling them separately, he gathered everyone together.Could he stand it?Many billionaires and various company owners were gently swirling their wine, waiting for Sean to make a fool of himself.Johnson and the rest of the Joules Town government were also slightly uneasy.The scene was now chaotic.Thousands of people clamored together, drowning out Sean's voice.However, Sean remained calm and stood in place.There was so much noise around him, but it seemed to not affect him.Whoosh!Suddenly, a mineral water bottle was thrown at Sean.Smack!However, Sean caught it accurately the next moment.Sean then gently put the water bottle nearby."Get him!"The
The crowd glanced at each other, not in a hurry to speak.However, they could not help but wonder.After all, it was pointless to continue making a scene.They would be pleased if Sean delivered his promise, finished construction in a month, and delivered their units in two months!However, they did not believe Sean could do it."Is what you say true?"If you can do that, we'll put an end to it, of course."But what if you can't?"A unit owner in their fifties asked with a frown as they looked at Sean."I can do it if I said I can."I only wanna know if you believe me!"If you tell me you don't believe me, I'll leave now. We don't need to waste each other's time."If you believe me, let's keep on talking."Sean said indifferently, looking at the crowd with his hands behind his back."You!"Everyone was more dumbfounded when they heard Sean.Everyone knew the chairman of Billion Trees Real Estate, Jimmy had been thrown into prison.Billion Trees Real Estate could be sai
"It meant that if we owe you three months' pay, Mr. Lennon will pay five."If we owe you one month, we'll pay you three."We're giving you an extra two months' pay just to make it up to you."Zander walked slowly forward and explained to the crowd."What the h*ll? Really?""Oh my. Extra two months' pay? So I'll make ten thousand dollars for nothing?"No way. Is this businessman here to do charity?"Everyone was momentarily stunned.The unit owners were also confused.Many businessmen delayed their wages, and the employees were happy if they could pay the full amount owed.Sean was not only paying the full amount but also paying an extra two months' wages.Well... Was this a joke?"Of course, I'm giving you this compensation in hopes that you will continue to work here."You built the buildings. You know the projects well and are used to them."But I'll pay you whether you're going to continue working here or not."Sean looked at the crowd and said again.Clap, clap, cla
Whenever it was, cash had a bigger impact than anything else.You could afford top luxury cars, luxury villas, and luxury brands as long as you had enough money.Actual cash notes had more impact than bank balances.Being a multimillionaire did not sound like much at first.However, how much space would ten million dollars in cash take up?Nothing could match the visual impact of cold hard cash.A truckload of cash was sent over after Sean ordered.Who would not be shocked?"Gosh. Oh, gosh!""Money. There's so much money. I've never seen so much money...""There must be millions of dollars here.""Millions? Are you kidding me? It's at least tens of millions of dollars!"Countless migrant workers discussed in awe.Some of these people were in their 40s and 50s—middle-aged people who had lived half their lives.However, they had never seen so much money all at once.Bundles of ten thousand cash notes per stack laid neatly in the truck.Even from this distance, everyone se
"Well..."Ryan hesitated for two seconds but eventually nodded.He had other things on his mind.Although the unpaid wages should be paid in full, he wanted to keep some of the extra two months' pay for himself.What Sean did ruined his plan.However, he dared not refuse, so he could only pay the workers on the spot."Pay all workers on the spot."If there's any problem, I'll take care of it."Sean said indifferently, looking at the crowd.Clap, clap, clap!Another round of applause broke out.Sean did things in a way that no one could find fault with him.The contractors were a little upset at first.However, they were satisfied once they recalled that they got paid."Next, Mr. Gordon..."The company employees and Zander worked together to pay the other workers.Swoosh, swoosh!The sound of cash notes passing through the detector was pleasing to the ear.Many workers waited in anticipation.None of the unit owners left.Though the money was not for them, they enjoy
"What do you think?"Mr. Lennon is unlike Jimmy!"I think we can trust him. This young man isn't as simple as he seems."The unit owners decided after discussing.It would be great for the unit owners if Sean did what he promised to do!Therefore, the crowd applauded after a short pause.Some of the onlookers grew jealous of the unit owners.Some even wanted to purchase a unit right away."Mr. Lennon, we'll collect our units in a month."Jeffrey stepped forward and shouted to Sean."You can smash the Lennon Real Estate building if you can't get the keys in a month."Sean pointed at the building behind, sounding confident."Okay!"The crowd nodded again."Thank you, Mr. Lennon. We'll head back first.""Let us know when you have made the arrangements for us to start construction."The contractors went up to bid Sean goodbye.The unit owners also dispersed.Sean stood where he was with his hands behind his back as he watched the crowd leave with a smile.He looked witti
"Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh
"Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp
A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and
Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth
The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W
Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto
Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's
It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a
"Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
