Chapter 153 Eden Residential Building
Jack decided to ask Tracy if there was someone present in the company that could train people. He didn't want just muscles, skills were very important. So, the twenty still had to go and train their skills and how they were supposed to react in specific situations.r
"Hello boss." Tracy responded.r
"How are things on your side?" Jack asked.r
"They are going well. By next week, the merging should be completed." Tracy replied.r
"That's good. Anyway, is there anyone who is training the guards?" Jack inquired.r
"Yes. There's one that was in the army before. After he got injured, he couldn't continue staying there and so, he decided to come and do something simple. He now trains the special guards that always take on the bodyguard duties." Tracy explained.r
"Ok, I got it. Inform him that I would like to send people for him to train them. They should be trained in all means possible." Jack stated.r
"I'll make sure to pass the information." Tracy agreed.r
"Okay then. They will be coming on a helicopter. You can organize and see what side requires it the most. It will be convenient for the emergency response to be moving around with the helicopter." Jack added.r
Tracy was pleasantly surprised that Jack was giving them a helicopter. One had to remember that all the money that they were earning during the month was actually being used by them to expand the company.r
That was what Jack had decided on during the previous visit. So, all the revenue that was earned during the month was used as capital that was injected into the company.r
She had also planned to buy a few helicopters using the money. Although it was true that they already had a few of them, it was also true that they were not enough to serve the company whose branches were spread out to other cities.r
"Boss, we still have a good amount of money. We can use it to buy several helicopters. There's no need for you to give away your personal helicopter." Tracy tried persuading.r
"Worry not. This helicopter is special. There will be a total of three but two of them will be delivered once the merging is completed." Jack insisted.r
"Okay." Tracy agreed. Since Jack said that it was special, she had no choice but to agree. But in her heart, she didn't think that there was anything special with the helicopter. After all, what could be so special about it?r
In any case, she could only wait and see what was so special about it in that Jack thought that it was. So, after she agreed, she asked for the number of the people that would be going to the headquarters and ended the call.r
Jack was now relieved that there was actually a person that could train the twenty in terms of skills. And if possible, Jack wanted to get this person who was from the army to also join a private team.r
It was just an injury. Johnathan's poison had been healed by the body strengthening solution. So, Jack believed that it wasn't impossible to have the injury that he suffered to be treated as long as it wasn't losing a limb.r
As for whether he would join, that would depend on him and Denali. If Denali thought that he was good to join, Jack would immediately invite him to join. If he agreed to it, Jack would definitely give him the body strengthening solution.r
Now, he had only spent forty two pills. There were still 174 pills remaining. What's more, there was another batch that was being produced. And once that came as well, the number of pills in his hands would be enough for him to strengthen a big number of people.r
The efficiency of the pills was so high. But, what was up with how easy it was for them to be produced? The ingredients were very cheap and most of them were easy to find.r
[That's how the medicine is. The ingredients are always available. It's just that people don't know that when you combine this plant and this grass you will get this effect. Furthermore, even if a person wants to try it, that person would have to start by trying to see the effect of combining two plant essence before finding the right ratio. All of this is too time consuming.]r
Jack nodded. This was why the research for medicine of a certain disease would sometimes take a few years or it might as well extend to decades before the results start appearing.r
Jack wanted the group that had been selected by Denali to start the production of the anti-leukemia pills as soon as they completed the second batch of the body strengthening pills.r
In this way, he would start getting closer to the target that he wanted. He knew that monopolizing the medicine sector would be hard. What he was expecting from this side was simply the money.r
The money could then be used to develop other companies that had the least competition and he would be able to complete one of the requirements for the system upgrade.r
[You've earned $96M. Multiplier applied. You receive $9.6B.]r
Jack was surprised by the sudden system prompt. He had not expected that there would be money coming in at this point. Now, the question was, where was the money coming from? This was the first time that the system wasn't mentioning the source of money if he wasn't the one that was actually carrying out the transaction himself.r
As if to answer his question, another system prompt appeared.r
[First Income From the Serenity Residential Area. As a reward, you gain the Eden Residential Building.]r
Just then, the phone that he was still holding in his hand vibrated. Looking at the message that he had received from the bank, Jack sighed with emotion.r
[Flyers Bank Savings Account Received $9.6B. Current balance is $26,855,924,216.]r
He was now already halfway towards the target, $50B. This was actually the first sale that had occurred ever since he actually got rewarded with the serenity residential area from the bet with Austin in venture city.r
Looking at the balance in his account, Jack could see the target was approaching. He wondered who it was that had purchased the villa.r
In serenity residential area, there was a total of thirty villas that were up for sale. The villas were built according to a certain pattern and the price. There were five of each villa with the price tag.r
The villas were worth $20M, $96M, $105M, $118M, $130M. These were twenty five villas. Then, there were four villas that were worth $190M each.r
As for the last villa that Jack had thought that he would take it for himself if there would be nobody who would have purchased it by the end of his one month booking, it was worth $695M. This was the most expensive villa in the whole residential area.r
And now, there were six villas that were sold before Jack took over the residential area. The five that were worth $20M and one that was worth $96M. Now, another purchase of a villa that was worth $96M had been completed.r
Now that Jack thought about it, he was rewarded with the entire Serenity Residential Area. Its worth was estimated to be at least $3.8B. But, there were already six buildings that had been sold.r
Didn't that mean that he had actually been scammed of his six villas? 'System, where's the money for my six villas?'r
[Who said that the six villas are yours. You own twenty four of the thirty villas in Serenity Residential Area.]r
Jack: "????"r
What the heck! Wasn't he rewarded with the Serenity Residential Area? Why was it that he only owned some of the villas and the others weren't? Didn't that reduce the value of the property that he owned?r
[The villas sold are not counted. The villas that were sold can amount up to $196M. On the other hand, although those that bought the villas own them, as long as they get out of their courtyard, they are trespassing on your property.]r
[What you own are the twenty four villas as well as all the other facilities that are present in the residential area. That means that even if you sell all the villas, you will still be considered the owner of the playgrounds, swimming pools and other facilities that are available outside of the villas and the courtyards of the serenity residential area.]r
Jack finally calmed down. It turned out that the system wasn't scamming him of the reward that he was supposed to receive.r
Now, to the thing that he had just received, Eden Residential Building. Jack was still considered new in Kartu city. So, he had yet to know the names of most of the buildings in the city.r
The only solution for the moment would be to for him to do a search and find what that building was.r
He found that Eden was actually a building with 50 floors. It was a 3 bedroom apartment building. Currently, it had most of the apartments occupied. And, the estimated price of the whole apartment building was $1.03B. This was a sky-high price.r
In other words, although Eden Residential Building wasn't the tallest building present in the city, it was still a luxurious apartment block.r
Jack thought that he was getting richer and richer. He then thought of something. 'System, will I have a reward from the first income from the apartment?'r
[NO!]r
Jack: "????"r
[You got the serenity residential area as a reward from the system due to the multiplication effect from the bet. In such a way, it's the income that you received. As for the Eden Residential Building, that's a reward from the system. A reward from the system doesn't give you a reward, just the income multiplier.]r
[Had it not been for the fact that Serenity Residential Area was for sale before it was rewarded to you, the income coming from selling it wouldn't have been multiplied. Only the income like rent would have been multiplied.]r
[So, if you sell Glaze Hotel, you will be rewarded by a first time income reward as long as the first month hasn't gone by. But, the reward that you will receive, even if you sell it, the income will not be multiplied. In other words, the system doesn't support you selling the rewards that you have been awarded with.]r
Jack finally understood. After all, back then, although he had actually sold the building and the cars that belonged to Austin, there was no multiplier effect considering that he had already been rewarded by something that was a hundred times more after he received them.r
