Chapter 133
“Wait, really?” Carlisle’s eyes lit up. If the plant were to close down, there’d be tons of top talents he could
recruit from there!
“Yeah, I just saw it on the forum! The post is still fresh. The plant’s employees are now protesting outside the plant. We can go check things out and see whether we can hire some technical people from there.”
Hank had already guessed that Carlisle likely wanted to get into the world of cell phones and the internet. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have asked Hank to search for people in this field of work.
That was w
why he’d hurried back to the studio without even finishing his lunch when he saw the news.
“Let’s head over there right now! Sunny, you stay here and do what you’re supposed to do.” Carlisle left Sunny at the studio.
He and Hank immediately hailed a cab to Rainville. It was under Riverland’s jurisdiction and was in the
north.
About half an hour after they’d left the studio, Carlisle received a call from Heath. “Carl, it’s Sunny. Have you heard of Riverwatch Hotel?”
Sunny’s voice rang out on the other end of the line.
Riverwatch Hotel? Wasn’t that Prince Hotel’s predecessor?
After Riverwatch District had been developed, Riverwatch Hotel was rebuilt and turned into Prince Hotel. Carlisle had no idea how it ended up in Heath’s hands, though.
“Yeah, I’ve heard of it. What’s wrong with it?”
“Three people died there last night. According to the police, someone powerful was behind it. They’ve put out wanted notices for the guy. If he’s caught, he’ll definitely be sentenced to death,” Sunny said in a low
voice.
“Are you saying that we’ll have a chance to buy the hotel?” Carlisle’s eyes gleamed as his mouth went a
Little dry from the excitement.
“I got the owner’s phone number from Bill earlier. He does intend to sell off the hotel, but the price…”
“How much is it?”
“36 million dollars…”
“Alright, got it.” Carlisle hung up.
36 million dollars wasn’t a sum he could afford for the time being. It would be hard to borrow that much
money from someone, too.
After some thought, he called Lethan
“Well, I’ll be. Why are you calling, Carlisle? Lethan asked.
Chapter 133
“I want to do business with you.”
“Oh?” Lethan chuckled. “Let’s hear it.”
“Before that, I want you to promise you’ll split the profits in half with me,” Carlisle said seriously.
“Sure.” Lethan didn’t hesitate.
Carlisle had helped him avoid a three–billion dollar loss–it was no different to saving his life. But Carlisle hadn’t asked for anything in return and even wanted to do business with Lethan.
Lethan was also positive he would make money! If they did, Lethan was willing to give all the profits to him, let alone split it in half.
“Alright, then. I’ll text you the details.” Carlisle hung up after that. Then, he sent Lethan a message.
At Islo Clothing, Lethan was leisurely sipping his coffee. When he received Carlisle’s message, he immediately read it.
“Buy Riverwatch District. It costs 36 million dollars.”
He spat out his coffee.
36 million dollars? Did Carlisle even know how much money that was? And this was Riverwatch Hotel they were talking about!
No one visited Riverwatch District these days, not even wild animals. Only a fool would purchase property
there.
Lethan composed himself before replying to the message. “Do you know what you’re talking about,
Carlisle?”
After that, he put his phone down and wiped the coffee he’d spat all over the coffee table.
