Chapter 40
As soon as Oliver said his thoughts, Fabian clapped his hands and said, “There is really such a person. His name is Wayne Ziegler, a friend of my childhood friend, Donald Yancey. Wayne liked to practice combat arts when he was young. At the age of 18, he joined the army and won second place in the combat competition in the army. Due to his outstanding abilities, he was originally retained in the army but retired because his mother had no one to take care of her. This person is really impressive!”
Oliver said excitedly, “Okay, okay. Fabian, handle this matter quickly. In addition, rent some houses for me, and I will pay for the rental as a housing subsidy for the employees in our company. All of you can buy a house after being paid bonuses at the end of the year.”
In Oliver’s opinion, with his current means and speed of making money, giving employees a bonus for one house every year should not be a problem.
After taking Fabian to the hotel and Hailey home, Oliver took a taxi to the hospital.
Calista and Joanna were both in the hospital. As soon as Joanna saw Oliver, she said delightedly, “Oliver, it’s all thanks to your boss Oliver for inviting an expert medical team from Jacaster to perform surgery on Dad, and the operation was also very successful. Dad has been much better these days. The doctor said that he can recover after a month of rest!”
“That’s good, that’s good!” Hearing that Jason’s life was finally saved, Oliver could not help but burst into tears.
However, Oliver was even more grateful to Hailey. She had never mentioned getting someone to find Jacaster’s expert medical team to him.

However, it was a good thing. Oliver turned his head and wiped away his tears. He then asked Joanna with a smile, “Jo, do
still have money on your card? I’ll transfer you some. I have made a lot of money from cleansing emeralds in Manchernius. I will apply for a credit card for you, Dad, and Mom, tomorrow. You can buy whatever you want from now on. I have a lot of money!”
Joanna shook her head instead. “I still have those 200 thousand dollars. Ms. Fox has paid all the operation fees for Jacaster’s expert medical team, and I don’t get to pay any amount. Oliver, I don’t need you to give me money. When Dad recovers completely, I will find a job. I’m already an adult, and I’m capable of working. Do you think I can’t support myself?”
Oliver smiled and shook his head. “You don’t have to look for a job. I want to start my own company, so you can work there from when the time comes. You can come and help me!”
Joanna was stunned. “Oliver, you… are going to start a company?”
Oliver smiled and nodded. “I’m not doing it alone. Ms. Fox is with me. We will have half of the shares for each of us, and…
Oliver approached Joanna and whispered, “Jo, I made over 200 million dollars from cleansing jades in Manchernius this time. Ms. Fox gave me 120 million dollars today!”
Joanna opened her mouth wide in shock. She voiced, “120…” But she quickly covered her mouth after muttering the numbers to keep from saying further.
She thought, “This number is so scary!”
The surprises Oliver gave Joanna during these days were one after another. Previously, it was about Oliver earning hundreds of thousands of dollars. Then, it was about getting a mansion worth over 2 million dollars, but it was not as shocking as what his brother said to her just now.
Joanna thought again, “120 million dollars!”
Joanna was so shocked that her heart trembled.
Because of Oliver’s earned money, Calista also solved the big problem of medical expenses. Joanna was responsible for her life these days too. She did not save money on food as she was afraid that her parents would not eat well, so she chose nutritious dishes to serve them.
Calista ate and slept well. Her physical condition looked much better than the days before.
Jason was even more excited and happier. It was normal that no one wanted to die. He had been begging for death because he did not want to drag his wife and children down, burdening them.
However, Oliver suddenly became outstanding and capable, earning a lot of money to save his life. Of course, Jason was happy about it.
The doctor also said today that after more than a week of recovery, Jason could be hospitalized and stay leisurely at the same time, which was to say that he could go home or take a stroll somewhere.
Joanna had not told her parents about moving into the mansion yet, as she wanted to say to them when they returned home to give them a surprise.
Although Fabian looked like an old slicker, he was very sharp-minded about getting things done. He had done two things the following afternoon.
The first thing was about the office. He had negotiated for a storefront in a popular location at Gerton Plaza in Jeahron.
The place was located on the first and second floors of Gerton Building No. 3, which covered an area of about 6,000 square feet, totaling 11,000 square feet for both floors.
The first floor was a supermarket-style shopfront. Two-thirds of the second floor was a shop-style, while one-third of the same floor was an office building.
The original landlord failed in their investment, causing the capital chain to break. The landlord had no choice but to sell out the place. The selling price of a shop here was about 10,000 dollars. The landlord spent 7 million dollars when he made the purchase. After several years, the market value appreciated by nearly 4 million dollars. Due to their urgent need for money and selling out the place, they only offered a price of 9000 dollars per square foot, resulting in 111,000 square feet worth 9.9 million dollars in total.
Oliver knew what kind of a person Fabian was.
He was a crafty fellow and was good at bargaining. After a round of negotiation, he clarified to the landlord that he did not need loans or debts and would pay for the place in full at once. However, he would only pay 8 million dollars.
The other party finally agreed because no matter which agent was entrusted, the arrangement could not be handled quickly. Moreover, the intermediary fees were costly.
With Fabian’s agreement to pay in full at once, the landlord would be free of intermediary fees. Although the price was a little lower, it was not unbearable.
Oliver looked at the location with Fabian and found that he had fallen in love with this place at first glance. It was big and located in a bustling area.
In the future, the first floor will be set for sale. The second floor would be modified into offices and meeting rooms completely. The sales office on the first floor would be mainly used as a showcase, exhibiting luxury items, emerald, jade wares, or antique calligraphies and paintings. With his identification skills, he would do whatever could earn money
anyway.
The place became his property since he had bought it with full payment. He could rent it out to ensure his family’s living expenses if he could not make any money in the future.
Besides, it would be impossible for Oliver not to make any money with his ability.
After Oliver checked that there was no problem with the place, he paid the other party directly to make the deal and then went to Land Registry to transfer ownership.
After transferring ownership, Fabian received a call and asked someone to meet them directly at the office.
Oliver did not know what was happening until he saw a brawny man arrive with an older woman in her seventies. Fabian introduced them to Oliver with a smile, “Mr. Eastwood, this is Wayne, the real impressive man!”
Oliver was overjoyed. He shook hands with the man and asked, “Wayne, make yourself at home when you come here. Treat this place as your house, Fabian…”
Then, he turned to Fabian and asked, “Is the house for staying ready?”
Fabian smiled and said, “Of course. We first rented three houses with three bedrooms and a living room. Six of us can live in two houses separately. Wayne will live with his mother in one.”
Wayne hurriedly said, “Fabian, there’s no need for that. I’ll live with you guys. You don’t have to rent me a separate house. It’s… not cheap anyway. Let’s save some expenses up, even if it’s only a little!”
Oliver was delighted with what Wayne said. Wayne was a practical man and was willing to think for Oliver. The latter did not lack money, but at least he had to spend his money worthwhile.
Oliver said, “Wayne, you don’t have to say anything more. Mrs. Ziegler is elderly, and many things would be inconvenient for her. It will be best if she lives in a house alone. I’m not afraid of spending money as long as it is worth it.”
