Chapter 789

Jasper did not have much hope when he asked.

After all, Todd was merely enjoying his grandparents’ wealth and was focused on real estate.

His main assets were also real estate enterprises that he had inherited.

Jasper had never heard of Todd holding shares in any particularly large companies.

However, Todd’s following words immediately piqued Jasper’s interest.

“The company goes by the name Google. I’m sure you’ve never heard of it considering how weak and
poor they are. They don’t even have an office but they’re working in the internet industry. They’re doing
search engines, the kind of service that allows you to search websites and information online.”

Seeing how Todd was stumbling over himself as he spoke, Jasper was certain that he had no
understanding of how huge this company he had invested in would turn out to be in the future.

“So, are you interested?” Todd asked Jasper, his eyes shining.

As far as Todd was concerned, he had only bought the company’s shares to gain favors from a friend.
He never expected to earn any money from this at all.

He only paid money to make a friend.

However, Todd realized that perhaps he could persuade Jasper to free him of these shares since
Jasper also did business in the internet industry.

It would be an easy profit if he could exchange Google’s shares with Sena’s.

“Indeed, I’ve never heard of them before,” Jasper frowned and shook his head slightly. “I do know
about search engines, though. But there haven’t been many similar businesses in the market, so



profiting would be extremely difficult. Why would you invest in such a company?”

Todd replied, evidently upset, “I didn’t have a choice. Businessmen like us will always have to deal with
those damned politicians.

“But Laine, I’ve always thought that your mind and vision have been the most outstanding of all the
people I’ve met. Maybe Google is a company with a lot of potential for development? Even Yahoo has
a dedicated department for search engines, and its market price is comparable to large internet
companies like Weresoft. You should know about those, right?”

‘Of course, I do.

‘I also know that Yahoo is going to make a severe loss in the future and end up going bankrupt until the
point that it’s worth nothing anymore.

‘Google, on the other hand, will take over Yahoo’s place in the United States as the main internet
company and secure over 70% of search engine business within the country.

‘If not for Somerland keeping Beido, Google would’ve easily become the top search engine all over the
world.’

“You’re asking me to pick up after you, Todd,” Jasper spoke with a subtle smile.

With his thoughts exposed, Todd laughed to smooth out the awkwardness before speaking, “I’m just
saying that it might be a chance. Of course, it’s fine if you’re not interested in it at all.”

“Oh, no, I’m interested.”

Jasper reignited Todd’s hope just as he was about to give up.

“Really?” Todd asked in surprise.



Jasper clapped Todd’s shoulder and spoke, “I told you we’re friends, didn’t I, Todd? That alone is
enough for me to be willing to help you with this problem. How do you plan on exchanging the shares?”

Todd shook Jasper’s hand while feeling moved and spoke, “That’s great, Laine! We’ll be best friends
from now on!

“I currently have 27% of Google’s shares and I plan to exchange all of them for Sena’s shares,” Todd
spoke greedily.

‘I can’t believe I thought you only became worse when you grew older when in truth, you’ve been so
evil ever since the beginning.’

Jasper scoffed internally but put on a conflicted expression. “You know, Todd, Sena is really important
to me. I can give you the outstanding shares but I cannot give you my percentage.”

“That’s fine,” Todd waved him off and agreed readily.

He was not interested in being a shareholder of an internet company that was based all the way in
Somerland. All he wanted now was cash, money!

Outstanding shares were even better as he could resell them.

“Alright, then. I’ll exchange 27% of my shares for 12 million worth of Sena’s shares. How’s that?” Todd
asked.

‘This *sshole is eviler than I thought!’

Jasper smiled meaningfully and replied, “I don’t have that many outstanding shares on hand, Todd. And
it’ll decrease my percentage of shares if I exchange them. Not to mention that 12 million US dollars is a
big deal. I’m sure your 27% of Google shares didn’t cost more than three million US dollars.”



Todd’s face flushed red like never before.

“Fine, then. Eight million.” Todd lowered his price with a conflicted look.

Indeed, he had only used 2.4 million to buy 27% of Google’s shares.

To get rid of such a problem and even earn almost ten million from it spoke volumes of how vile Todd
was.

“Five million worth of shares, according to their current price.” Jasper stood his ground.

How much would Google’s market price be in the future?

In the year 2020 before Jasper reincarnated, Google had a market price of one trillion US dollars.

By then, this 27% of shares would give him 270 billion US dollars.

That was money Jasper could not ever come up with even if he sold everything he had.

Such was an investment.

No matter how much money Jasper put in, Jasper would still be making a profit.

Still, any money saved was money saved and the most important thing about this negotiation was to
get rid of Todd’s doubt about Google.

Todd could not be too resentful about Jasper’s behavior once Google started growing. After all, he was
the one who proposed the trade.

Todd thought about it when he heard the suggestion. His intelligent and calculative mind quickly
decided that it was a feasible transaction.



Sena’s share prices were still rising. Since Jasper had agreed to trade at the current share price, this
five million would also grow into something much more.

“Deal!” Todd laughed aloud.

“Alright, then. We’ll each send someone to sign the contract later. Could you please help me contact
the person in charge of this company, Mr. Todd? I want to meet them.” Jasper was internally elated but
his expression did not betray his emotions.

“Don’t worry about it. I’ve got this covered, Laine. You really are a generous and kind friend,” Todd told
Jasper with heartfelt emotions.

Years later, Todd would think of today and be in utter agony, wishing to turn back in time and slap
himself for his words.

Todd left happily, and Celine, who had not said anything the entire time, poked Jasper’s waist.

“Hey, it’s obvious that the blonde fellow is trying to scam you. Why would you take the bait so happily?”
Celine spoke distastefully.

She had never heard of this Google company and it could potentially be a scam. Yet Jasper was
buying its shares at such a great cost?

“I’ll just take it as making a friend,” Jasper spoke with a wide grin.

“He thinks you’re an idiot!” Celine harrumphed, slightly pissed.

She had no idea how this foolish man had made so much money.

The worst part of this was that Celine found no qualms with her taking advantage of Jasper, but she
would feel pissed when someone else took advantage of him.



“Sena’s share prices aren’t rising as quickly anymore!”

Jasper was just about to speak when a voice sounded from somewhere and caught his attention.
