CHAPTER 1936
Jasper was pushing the Habers into the
fire pit with this one sentence.
The father and son were now afraid of
Jasper because they were worried that
Grandland Corporation would not have an
easy time in the future. However, Jasper’s
condition for forgiving them was basically
asking Grandland Corporation to die, so
how could they compromise?
Sure enough, not only Channing, but even
Weston hesitated.
Jasper saw all this, and after a little
thought, he said, “Don’t worry, there are
ways to make up for this loss.
“Put those undelivered grains on the Content held by .
domestic market. If it doesn’t work, the
government has a guaranteed purchase
price at which they will purchase them.
Plus, in this current situation, the market
price or the guaranteed purchase price
will inevitably increase by a large margin,
so you don’t have to worry about the cost.
“I have protected the cost of all the grain
and rice you have on hand. Of course, I
believe those scalpers must have
purchased them from you at an
outrageous price so you feel that you’re
losing out even before you get the profit,
right?”
Jasper knew what they were thinking
without even looking at Weston and his
son.
“Whether you are doing business or just
being a decent human being, don’t fix
your eyes on the benefits in front of you.
What is the use of earning money that’s
placed in front of you when
you
won’t
even be alive to spend it in the future?”
As soon as Jasper said this, the father and
son changed their expressions abruptly.
At the same time, they looked at Jasper in
horror.
Jasper said impatiently, “Why are you
looking at me like this? I didn’t mean that
if you don’t cooperate with me, I will kill
you. Do you think of me as a bandit?
“Just think about why those people from the United States would come all the way t o Somerland to buy food and even spend s o much money.”
Jasper shook his head and said faintly, “If it were other industries, I’d just turn a blind eye. However, you must think twice before you do business with foreigners when it comes to staple industries like food.
“You all know that the futures market has skyrocketed during this period. The United States is now trying to speculate o n domestic food prices. The money you earn right now will be earned back hundreds of times and thousands of times over from our people in the future.
“Even if I don’t talk about these national justices with you and just your interest, d o you really think that I am so capable of completely destroying your industry that’s standing tall in Raydon province like a king in just ten to twenty minutes?
“Don’t you know who you can’t offend the most in Somerland?”
Weston and Channing were speechless.
“As for the default loss, it’ll be made up when Grandland Corporation is listed on the stock market.”
Weston’s heart trembled and
subconsciously said, “We have no plans to go public.”
“What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of losing control?” Jasper asked.
Weston nodded awkwardly.
Jasper didn’t say anything.
At this point, a pot like him should not call a kettle black.
Why was JW not public?
Why were they not public now and had no plans to go public in the future?
Jasper wanted to control this company completely.
However, for the Habers father and son, Jasper had a plan.
“Take out 20% of the shares as tradable share capital, then you’ll still have 80% of the shares on hand. Don’t worry about the issue of control. The most important
thing is what if I can use this 20% of the shares as a foundation and triple Grandland Corporation’s market value?
“If Grandland Corporation is now worth 1 o billion, the total market value of Grandland Corporation can be speculated t o be 30 billion if you take out 2 billion shares. Then the decision will be either 80 % of 30 billion or 100% of 10 billion, I don’t need to say much more, right?”
