Life at The Top
Chapter 2127

That night, after Wendy returned, Jasper told her what had happened.

"Wendy, I recalled Sean from the agricultural base in Nauritus City. You can leave the work in Harbor City to him so you can return to the headquarters in Nauritus City."

Wendy was a little surprised when she heard this. "Why did you call Sean back in such a hurry? You didn't even tell me in advance."

Jasper smiled and explained, "I made this decision at the last minute. Besides, you have been very busy these past two days. You'd fall asleep immediately after you come back every day, so how can I find the time to discuss this with you?" Wendy thought about it and felt that Jasper was making sense. The development of things in Harbor City was now beyond her control. Furthermore, she also knew Sean's ability. Wendy was also relieved to leave this matter to the other party.

"Well, that's fine. Then I'll hand over the work to Sean tomorrow and return to Nauritus City. It just so happens that I'm also worried about my dad and May."

Wendy frowned worriedly when she mentioned Dawson and his girlfriend. She might have to quarrel with Dawson over this matter again after returning to Nauritus City.

Jasper took her into his arms. Then, he comforted her with a grin, "Don't worry, I have asked Baz to investigate May, and I believe there will be results soon. However, if there is really no problem with her, we should just let Dad marry her if he wants. He's getting old anyway, so just let him do whatever he pleases."

Wendy frowned a little when she heard that. Then, she nodded. "Yeah, I think so too!"

The next day, Wendy took Sean to see Anna, and Jasper got another call from Rowan.

"Jasper, can you come over? I've got some information on what you asked me to investigate last time."

Jasper drove directly to Rowan's house in the Mid-Mountain Residential Area in Harbor City without saying a word. After that, he went straight to the subject as soon as he entered the house.

"Tell me, what did you find?"

Rowan directly took a bunch of materials to Jasper and gave them to him. "Jasper, you can see for yourself. I can't explain in just a few words."

Jasper glanced at Rowan, raised his eyebrows slightly, and picked up the documents on the table. After that, he read them page by page. After reading, Jasper's expression gradually became solemn.

Sitting across from him, Rowan took a sip of water and asked, "This is the first-hand information I got through a special channel at a huge cost. The information is reliable and accurate."

When Jasper heard that, he felt like a big rock was crushing his heart. Now that Somerland's economy had just started rising, Mr. McNeal also made himself very clear after Jasper went to see him the last time. Next, Somerland was going to make a qualitative leap forward from bring an agricultural country. However, Somerland's economy needed to continue taking off for at least fifteen years to solidify their foundations during this transition.

Only by laying a solid foundation during these fifteen years would Somerland be able to compete with the United States in all aspects in the future. However, right now, some things were beyond his expectations.

Since the last time he won the financial war on Wall Street, he had been hated by the hot money in the United States and Europe. The hot money could not directly act against Jasper, so they would definitely try their best to interfere with Jasper in other aspects. After all, many foreign capital's original plans to invest in Somerland had gone up in flames due to his actions. Jasper made a quick conclusion in his mind.

The current situation was that if they could not attract foreign investment, then they would not be able to drive the primary manufacturing industry in Somerland.

Somerland and tens of millions of grassroots were relying on foreign capital to improve their living standards. Only with the improvement of living standards at the grassroots level could the economic system of Somerland climb to a higher level.

To give an fundamental example, if the income of ordinary people was very low, then they naturally had no money to buy houses, cars, and various commodities. Only when the money in the pockets of the Somerlanders flowed could the country's GDP truly achieve rapid growth. However, the biggest hurdle in front of Jasper now was on how to get through the foreign trade blockade placed on Somerland.

Rowan sat on the sofa and looked at Jasper silently. To be honest, he had never seen Jasper show such an expression before. Although he had not participated in other investments in Somerland and he only worked with Jasper on Jasper Lane Automobile Factory, at this moment, Rowan was acutely aware of an unprecedented sense of urgency.

"Jasper... Jasper?"

Rowan called him twice in a row before Jasper came back to his senses.

"What's wrong?"

Rowan swallowed and said, "Now that things have escalated to this stage, what will you do? I think Europe and the United States will completely block Somerland's economic exports. In this case, aside from JW, I'm afraid that the future export business of Lane Automobile Factory will also be greatly affected!"
