Chapter 848
Summon Of The Sword
Quill was startled at the question. Then he asked in confusion.
âDad, learn what?â
âThis is called a pigâbutchering scam.
âCommonly known as swindling.â
Jon smiled playfully and turned on the computer at his desk.
Zimmer Corporation was going to bring in a lot of money soon.
âTell Manager Lynch not to accept investments from the partners who want to work with us in the companyâs name.
Jon took a drag from his cigar and said to Quill.
âWeâre taking the money ourselves.â
âWhat does that mean, Dad?â
Quill felt like his head was going overdrive.
âIf we use the companyâs name, there is too much trouble when things go wrong.
âI will transfer the companyâs legal representativeâs identity to you later, and the funds will be collected in my own name.
âEven if something happens again, they can only go after me, not Zimmer Corporation.â
Jon had a sneer on his face and a sinister gleam in his eye.
He was not afraid of private debt collection, of course.
As long as the investment was not collected in the companyâs name, there was no way for those people to collect the debt from the Zimmer Corporation legally.
âHsss!â
Quill gasped.
He almost called his father a âcunning old foxâ out loud!
Jonâs plan worked.
Many companies were interested.
Even companies that had business deals with Reach For Will Group were prepared to get involved.
After all, the prime development site was too good to pass up. Reach For Will Group could not even give them so much profit.
At first, some people realized they might be upsetting Reach For Will Group because they were partnering with Zimmer Corporation.
However, they then realized that Reach For Will Group had turned a blind eye to such matters and had no interest in asking questions.
Many soon began investing in Zimmer Corporationâs development plans.
The Quinn family immediately contacted Jon with offers to invest.
Old Madam Quinn made the call herself.
She had long since forgotten Seanâs soâcalled advice.
She did not belleve Sean could take on Jon.
Zimmer Corporation was now on the rise.
How was Sean going to defeat Zimmer Corporation?
Therefore, Old Madam Quinn invested a huge chunk of the Quinn familyâs money into Zimmer Corporationâs stocks.
Companies in River Cityâs business circle gathered around Zimmer Corporation like flies on rotten meat.
Zimmer Corporation soon received a lot of money.
In the end, even Homer of Larson Pharmaceuticals could not sit still.
He had already raised much from the companyâs capital to invest in Zimmer Corporation.
âReach For Will Group seem to have a bit of a feud with Zimmer Corporation.
âWill Reach For Will Group be upset with you for doing this?â
Old Master Larson asked, frowning at Homer.
Old Master Larson was in great shape with a rosy face after Sean healed him.
Homer shook his head and explained to Old Master Larson.
âOld Master, Reach For Will Group doesnât seem to be against this or stopping anyone.
âSo I thought we could participate in this.
âWeâll make a profit by investing in this land!â
Old Master Larson thought for a moment before finally nodding.
âWell⦠Okay.â
Homer did not delay. After preparing the funds, he prepared to contact Jon himself.
However, just as he took out his phone, it rang before he could make a call.
âHmm? Mr. Lennon?â
Homer saw the caller ID and answered.
âWhat are you trying to do?â
Seanâs voice rang when the phone rang.
âI⦠Mr. Lennon, Iâm preparing to invest in a project. What can I do for you?â
Homer had great respect for Sean.
âDo your job.
âStay out of these things.
âAnd tell the companies that picked me up from the Quinn familyâs place to stay out of it.â
Sean paused before muttering.
âWell⦠Mr. Lennon?â
Homer was instantly stunned.
He could tell that Sean did not want him to invest in Zimmer Corporation!
He knew Sean and Quill had had some issues, but he could just let the opportunity to make money slip!
âTrust me and stop.
âForget it if you donât believe me.â
Sean hung up after saying that.
Since the Larson family respected him, itwas the best Shawn could do.Sean would not say much.It depended on the Larsenfamily whether they believed him. Well?Homer put the phone down slowly,his eyes filled with shock.What's the matter?Who called Old Master Larson. Asked Homer.Frowning slightly with a troubled expression.Homer told old Master Larson what he heard. It was Mr.Lennon.He told me not to invest in Zimmer Corporation.Why is that?Old Master Larson was also confused.There seems to be some issue between Mr.Lennon and Zimmer Corporation.He probably didn't want ZimmerCorporation to get funded.Homer hesitated for 2 secondsbefore sharing his speculation.Old Master Larson nodded before shaking his head.Even if Sean could stop the Larsen family,he could not stop other companies, could he?Zimmer Corporation accepted a lot of investments.And it did not matter if LarsonPharmaceuticals did not participate in it.Judging from Sean's character, Old Master Larson seanwould never do such a childish thing.Old Master Larson was silent for afew seconds before asking Homer one thing.What are you going to do?
