490: Chapter 490: Buying a Mall!
Lionel Yeager suddenly said, “If that’s the case, then I should be able to buy this mall.”
A few months ago, East Beauty Pharmaceuticals purchased the Secret Prescription from the Chaplin Family in Arthur City, helping them complete their ancestral ancient secret recipe, the Eight Whites Powder.
Thus, the Chaplin family was grateful to him and repeatedly stressed that if he ever ca to Arthur City, they would definitely treat him warmly.
“You can buy it?”
Cyril Winslet laughed like crazy, “Kid, didn’t you say you could buy this mall?
Co on, buy it now and show !
If you can buy this mall, I’ll even kneel down and call you grandfather!”
Diana McKenna, on the other hand, ran out, shouting, “Everyone, co and see, there’s a super-rich big boss here who wants to buy the Ten Thousand Transformations Mall!”
“Holy cow, buying the Ten Thousand Transformations Mall?
That’s so aweso?!”
“How much money does it take to buy a mall?!”
“Let’s go, let’s go and see!”
People from the surrounding stores, as well as those shopping, all gathered around.
Diana McKenna did this in order to make Lionel Yeager embarrass himself in front of so many people.
In her view, Lionel Yeager was just bragging, and it was impossible for him to buy this mall.
That’s eight hundred million!
How many people can take out eight hundred million at once?
Diana McKenna pointed at Lionel Yeager and loudly said, “Everyone, it’s this big boss who wants to buy this mall, so watch closely!”
“This kid looks ordinary and doesn’t seem like a rich person.
Can he really buy this mall?”
“He’s probably just bluffing, I don’t believe it anyway!”
“With so many people watching now, this kid is probably going to have a hard ti coming off the stage!”
The crowd pointed and whispered, discussing the matter.
Lionel Yeager ignored them and took out his mobile phone to call the Chaplin family’s third son, Henry Chaplin.
After a while, the phone was connected.
“Is it Mr.
Yeager?”
Henry Chaplin’s voice ca through.
“Mr.
Chaplin, it’s .”
Lionel Yeager replied.
“Oh my God, it’s really Mr.
Yeager!
It’s been a long ti since we’ve been in touch!
I’ve heard about what you’ve been doing in River City recently!
You’ve annihilated the twelve major families and cured so many children in just a few hours!
Our entire Chaplin family admires you from all our hearts!”
Henry Chaplin was too excited, talking non-stop.
Lionel Yeager hurriedly stopped him, “Mr.
Chaplin, let’s not talk about pleasantries for now.
I’m calling you because I need your help.”
Henry Chaplin said, “Just tell what it is, and if our Chaplin family can help, we certainly will!”
Lionel Yeager said, “Here’s the thing, I’m currently in your Ten Thousand Transformations Mall, and I want to buy it.
Na your price.”
“Ah?
You want to buy the Ten Thousand Transformations Mall?”
Henry Chaplin was suddenly dumbfounded.
“Yes.”
Lionel Yeager nodded and said, “No matter how much it costs, just na your price.”
“This…”
Henry Chaplin was stunned for a mont, and then said, “Mr.
Yeager, if you want the Ten Thousand Transformations Mall, our Chaplin family is willing to give it to you for free.”
The fact was, Henry Chaplin knew that Lionel Yeager was now no longer that penniless country boy from before.
Lionel Yeager was River City’s Richest Man, South City’s Richest Man, and an extraordinary Divine Doctor whose dical skills were highly sought after by the Chaplin family.
Just to build a closer relationship with Lionel Yeager, giving away a mall would be worth it.
Lionel Yeager shook his head and said, “Mr.
Chaplin, I never take advantage of my friends.
If you really want to give it to , I’d rather not take it.”
Henry Chaplin paused for a mont, then said, “In that case, Mr.
Yeager, you can pay four hundred million.”
Lionel Yeager was taken aback, “Soone said this mall is worth eight hundred million, how did it beco four hundred million?”
Henry Chaplin feigned confusion and said, “Who said eight hundred million?
It’s only four hundred million!”
Lionel Yeager shook his head with a smile.
He naturally knew that Henry Chaplin was trying to give him the mall indirectly by cutting the price in half.
However, he didn’t point it out, and instead said, “Fine, then four hundred million.
Give an account, and I’ll transfer the money now.”
“Alright, my son Joey is nearby handling business, I’ll have him bring the contract to you right away!”
“Thank you very much, Mr.
Chaplin!”
“No trouble at all!”
After hanging up the phone.
Henry Chaplin sent over an account number, and Lionel Yeager transferred the money.
After the transfer, Lionel Yeager put away his mobile phone and looked at Cyril Winslet and Diana McKenna, saying, “Alright, I’ve bought this mall.
The Chaplin family will be sending the contract over soon, so we might have to wait.”
Cyril Winslet sneered, “Kid, who do you think you are, buying this mall with just one phone call?
You even said that the Chaplin family is bringing over the contract, you’re really putting up a good act!”
Diana McKenna laughed, “General Winslet, this kid said the Chaplin family would bring the contract, so let’s just wait.
After all, it’s free entertainnt, so we might as well watch.”
Lionel Yeager didn’t say much else, and simply pulled Julia Stewart to a nearby seat.
The crowd on the scene didn’t disperse either, all ready to watch the drama unfold.
Julia Stewart whispered, “Lionel, why did you buy this mall?
Did you really spend so much money just to slap these two people in the face?”
Lionel Yeager laughed and said, “Slapping them in the face is just one aspect, the other is that I think this mall is in a good location with high traffic.
Buying it is a sure profit.
I plan to let the Maddox family, who is already involved in the mall business, manage it.”
Julia Stewart suddenly realized, “So that’s your plan.
I didn’t expect you to have a business mind.”
Lionel Yeager laughed rrily and said, “Being with you for a long ti, I’ve learned a thing or two about business.”
It only took twenty-plus minutes.
A figure squeezed through the crowd and hurriedly rushed in.
This was a young man with an outstanding temperant, quite handso, and holding a contract in his hand.
“Young Master Chaplin, why are you here?”
Seeing this, Cyril Winslet’s face broke into a big smile and greeted him.
However, the young man didn’t even glance at Cyril Winslet but walked straight toward Lionel Yeager.
As he approached, the young man slightly bowed to Lionel Yeager, respectfully saying, “Mr.
Yeager, hello, I’m Joey Chaplin.
My father asked to bring you the contract!
As long as you sign it, this mall is yours!”
In an instant.
The scene went quiet.
Everyone stared in astonishnt at Lionel Yeager, their mouths agape.
Especially Cyril Winslet and Diana McKenna, who were even more stunned, as if struck by lightning.
The quiet only lasted for a while.
“Oh my God, this dude really bought this mall?”
“What the hell!
I didn’t see that coming; this guy is so rich, he said he’d buy it, and he did!”
“Is this guy the young master of a big family?”
The crowd exclaid and discussed.
Cyril Winslet still had so doubts.
He stepped forward, swallowing his saliva, and asked, “Young Master Chaplin, this kid is just a poor nobody.
Did he really buy this mall?”
“It’s impossible, absolutely impossible!
How could this kid have so much money?!”
Diana McKenna also shook her head vigorously, unwilling to believe this reality.
If this was true…
Wouldn’t the kid in front of her be even richer and more powerful than Cyril Winslet?
