The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 220
Since they were going to the Yorknorth Mountain, Gerald should cut himself some slacks!
After meeting up with Zack, Gerald went to pick up Queta and they all went to the Yorknorth Mountain.
Zack had made all kinds of arrangements, hence the Head of the village were waiting for their arrival.
The development of Yorknorth Village had never been good because of the location and the roads were bumpy. Now that they know someone might invest in the area, the head of the village was very concerned.
It was Geraldâs first time managing such a big project and he was slightly nervous. After reading the information that Zack had given him and experiencing the breeze by the mountain, he felt very relaxed.
There was a spring by the mountain and a waterfall falling from the top of the mountain. The air was really fresh up there.
When Gerald saw all these, he knew that he must develop this place.
Zack was in charge of the contracts while Gerald was going to be the first person to invest in the Yorknorth Mountain Village. The cost of the entire village was five million!
Gerald had to pay extra three million on top of the other two million from his sister. But it was totally worth it.
After signing the papers, the head of the village mentioned that there were some details that they had to discuss. Gerald let Zack handle it by himself and then he left with Queta to take a look around the mountain.
Since Queta was familiar with that village, she brought him around and they went to the old lake, the Rodefort Lake.
Gerald felt much better sitting by the lakeside.
Suddenly there was noise from behind.
âWow, Hayward! Didnât know your hometown is so beautiful! Letâs host a barbeque party here tonight!â
âWow! This place is so beautiful! Itâs such a shame that we will be working at Mayberry in the future or I might marry you! Hahaha!â
A few young people were talking as they were walking toward the lake.
They sounded like they love nature but at the same time they love money.
âSomething big happened yesterday and barbeque parties have been banned since yesterday though.
But all of you looked like you guys really want it, so we can try but weâll have to clean up real nicely!
Especially the ashes!â The guy named Hayward said.
âOh yes! Barbeque party and beers! No one is leaving sober tonight!â Everyone else cheered.
âWhat was the big âthingâ that you mentioned just now, Hayward? Youâve been so secretive since this morning!â Someone was getting curious.
âI canât say much because my dad told me not to tell anyone. But Iâll tell you guys a little. Someone will be here to sign contracts today to sponsor the development of Yorknorth!â
âDamn!â Everyone was shocked and excited.
If it was true, Hayward would be rich too!
They were walking toward the lake as they were talking and Gerald realized one of their voices sounded very familiar. He turned around and he saw Lilian, Sharon, and some other people.
