Chapter 566
Jaxon asked seriously, "That's a lot already! Isn't it enough? Have you been building up personal wealth behind my back?"
"If you believe in me, within ten years, I can push the Ingram family to the top ranks of the global Forbes list and as long as I'm around, no one can surpass us! Even if Zachary wakes up." Jaxon seemed a bit annoyed, "Young people like to brag; it's normal. Just tell me, have you done anything behind my back?"
"What if I have? Does it affect you in any way? Whether I used anything from Skyline Corporation or not, as long as I'm still in charge of the Ingram family, the family's assets won't ever decrease but only grow stronger. But apart from Skyline Corporation, the things I've built up only belong to the family if I'm still here, if I'm not, they're mine!"
"You're planning to betray me, aren't you? You're waiting for the day when I can't control you anymore, right?"
"Not at all. I'm considering that if one day you really don't need me and I even lose the position of head of the Ingram family, I won't be too bad off and have other ways to survive.
If you choose to always need me, then you can watch the Ingram family grow stronger and stronger. Even if I die, I can rest easy because the Ingram family is doing well now and is more prosperous than ever. We are now even more influential than the Snider family used to be, and for the next hundred years, no one can surpass us."
This speech touched Jaxon a bit.
But the kid was too cunning!
Skyline Corporation indeed belonged to the Ingram family, but the industries he developed belonged to him!
If he left the Ingram family, how could the family possibly get stronger?
So, if it really came to that, would they still have to keep satisfying Sebastian's needs?
And from this perspective, Sebastian's abilities were so strong that it didn't seem to matter who he married.
"Did I convince you?"
"I'm not convinced!"
"Have you heard about the land owned by the Wilson family?"
Jaxon was a bit surprised, "What about it? Are you involved too?"
Sebastian smiled and said, "That's the money-making luck this little girl brought me. Phinies has put all his wealth into buying the land and to develop it, he needs to cooperate with other families.
But his younger brother is not willing to marry the daughter of the King family. This pair of brothers lost their parents when they were young. It's already quite hard for Phinies to keep his position as the head. He has always doted on his brother and if he were not desperate, he wouldn't let his brother marry a girl from another family."
"So... are you planning to invest in that land?"
"No. I bought half of the land from Phinies at half the original price and I promised him that any future investment would be split half and half between the Wilson family and me as a partnership."
"And then? What are you trying to say?"
"Actually, I've already got some news. That land will be used to build an international airport, so someone will buy it at a high price, maybe even three or five times the original price." Jaxon asked in surprise, "How much did you pay for half of that land?"Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
"Three billion dollars."
So, Sebastian easily made several times the profit with these three billion dollars.
This was something he couldn't do when he was young!
Jaxon asked with wide eyes, "Was that money from Skyline Corporation or from you?"
