Chapter 59: Mysterious President Crowne
"What did he say?"
"He said he'll be expecting you tomorrow. They will send a car to pick you up from the airport," Emily Carrol's face was filled with awe. "President, if I may ask, when did you make an acquaintance with Mr. Crowne? I've heard that he is an extremely busy man. Only after waiting for three months can someone manage to get an appointment with him."
"The answer to this question is what I don't know... When did I make an acquaintance with 'Devil'?" Jazmine Harrison voiced out her thoughts as she planned the ways to turn this acquaintance into something profitable for her.
Emily Carrol felt confounded for a moment. Her president, as always, was difficult to understand... ah, too confusing.
A light bulb lightened over Jazmine Harrison's head as a brilliant idea struck her. She clapped her hands to gather Emily's attention. "I know what to do." She excitedly glanced at Emily. "Prepare the papers for the Southern real estate. I think we've found the best candidate for those lands!"
Jazmine Harrison hurried to her work desk. Soon, Emily Carrol rushed with a stack of files and scattered them on her desk. They both worked together to tidy up the mess.
"I'll name all the files we require. Check if we miss anything!" Jazmine glanced at Emily. Emily nodded. "The ownership papers. The exploratory team report. The analytical team report. All the information related to the government tax. The contract to sign off the lands. And the reports of the updated value of those lands."
"Aye, president. Everything's present," Emily energetically replied. "President, do you think President Crowne would be interested in our Southern real estate?"
"If he is as wise as they say, he'll," Jazmine Harrison felt very excited. "The only reason we can't cultivate that land is that we lack in power. But the Crowne family... Not only does it have power, but it also has a connection to the underworld. So government obstacles won't hold them off. Additionally, if you look around, they have recently been showing an interest in the field of mining. Think about it... They have their branches in every possible field. That's the only remaining field. And to say we can offer them that place at a relatively low price. I don't see any reason for them to object. And if we manage to win the Crowne family's goodwill, it'll be a plus point for us."
