Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 1961
Since they were going to collaborate, Gerald was definitely going after the biggest project. After all, what was the point if he didnât?
Hearing that, Zachariah then replied, âYouâre in luck, Chairman Crawford. I currently have a very good project regarding the development and construction around Schywater Cityâs sea area.â
Finding what Zachariah said interesting, Gerald then asked, âCould you perhaps be talking about the development of the commercial area around the cityâs sea area?â
Nodding in response, Zachariah smiled before replying, âThatâs the one. I see youâve heard about the project, Chairman Crawford!â
âI wonât deny that Iâve been keeping an eye on that place. Hmm⦠Why donât we do it this way, Chairman Kershaw? For that particular area, Iâm planning to have my group participate by occupying a great share and carrying out the construction with your group. With that said, I think itâs only fair that all the conditions and designs related to the construction should be handled by the Yonjour Group. What do you think?â asked Gerald after a slight pause.
Though he was momentarily startled to hear that, after snapping out of it, Zachariah immediately said, âNot a problem, Chairman Crawford. I already find it a great honor that youâre willing to cooperate with me in the first place! Regardless, Iâll be leaving everything to the Yonjour Group then!â After recovering from his genuine shock earlier, Zachariahâfor oneâknew better than to negotiate any further with Gerald. After all, it would be bad if he somehow got on Geraldâs bad side and ended up losing the chance to cooperate.
In the world of business, knowing how and when to act was crucial. If one didnât grab the opportunity when it appeared, failure would be the only option leftâ¦
It was at that moment when Natallie entered the room with Zachariaâs tea.
Upon seeing her, Gerald immediately ordered, âAh, there you are, Natallie. Go draft up a contract for a collaboration and show it to me later.â
âGot it, Chairman Crawford,â replied Natallie before leaving the room.
Once she was gone, Zachariah couldnât help but ask, âYou seem particularly interested in that area, Chairman Crawford⦠How exactly are you planning to build it?â
The commercial area around Schywater Cityâs sea area was a large and completely new area that was currently under construction. With the areaâs size in mind, it made many question how to even go about building the area up.
In fact, though it was the Zachariah Groupâs project, even Zachariah had been wondering how to properly navigate through the project. To think that after being vexed out of his mindâabout the project âfor so long, Gerald would suddenly come up with the idea of collaborating on that specific project! It truly was something to celebrate about⦠After all, the funds needed for the project alone cost nearly a whopping one billion and five hundred million dollars! Even with how rich the Zachariah Group was, it was near impossible for them to take on such a large project alone. Truth be told, Zachariah had already been thinking of collaborating with several other groupsâduring the later stagesâto have the percentage allotment.
Now that the Yonjour Group was stepping in, however, Zachariah knew that their two groups would be more than enough to take on the project. Better yet, it also meant that the project would be exclusively owned by only the Yonjour and Zachariah Groups!
As for Gerald, a billion and five hundred million dollars was nothing to himâ¦
Regardless, it was a little over an hour later when Natallie returned with a contract.
Handing it to Gerald, she then said, âIâve drafted up the contract, Chairman Crawford. Do have a look at it.â
