Chapter 131
Before Oliver could speak, Wayne hurriedly said, “Mr. Eastwood, today’s incident reminded us that
security should be tightened in the future. Sim and I have several retiredrades-in-arms. I will
gather them all tomorrow so we can have people to guide here at any time.”
Oliver nodded and replied casually, “Alright. Once they arrive, we will arrange their food and
amodation. The starting annual sry will be at least 100,000 dors. There will be no shortage of
funds for me. Since they have joined us, we consider them a part of our family.”
Wayne nodded. He always followed Oliver closely. Although Oliver was young, he was the most
capable man Wayne had ever seen, especially in stone gambling.
After a while, Sienna and her parents came in a hurry. As soon as they entered the door, they asked,
“Are you all right?”
Sienna and her father were both criminal policemen. The news that Oliver’s house had been robbed
spread to them immediately. So she came over quickly.
Sebastian was worried and came with her too.
Oliver shook his head andforted her, “It’s okay. My sister’s ex-husband, a social scumbag,
somehow found out that I became rich and came here for ckmail. It’s OK to have Wayne and Simon
around. We just wanted to leave evidence of the crimemitted by that scumbag on purpose, so we
let him be arrogant for a while. With the fact that he ckmailed us for 40 million dors, I’m afraid that
he will never be let out of prison in his life.”
Sienna and her father were relieved after hearing that.
The next morning, Oliver received another 240 million dors from Manuel’s finance department.
The bnce on Oliver’s card is 360 million dors, and it’s all cash.
That’s already a lot of money. Many wealthy individuals are said to have fortunes of 400 to 600 million
dors, but most of their fortunes are not real money. The majority of their wealth is in stocks or assets.
It’s hard to find someone with billions of dors in actual cash.
But Oliver has 360 million dors in cash, and he owns 50 percent of the Manuel chain of jewelry
stores.
In the past, Manuel’spany’s 50% stake was only worth around 100 to 120 million dors, but now
it’s different. As long as Oliver provides him with a batch of jadeite sources every month, Manuel’s
company’s market value will immediately increase by more than ten times.
Now Oliver has given Manuel half of his shares which is worth at least 1 billion or more, and this market
value will continue to grow with each passing month.
Originally, Oliver was thinking about adding some properties or businesses to his family that could
provide a continuous source of ie because he couldn’t guarantee that his special ability wouldst
forever.
What if one day it suddenly disappears?
All of Oliver’s current wealth was earned through his own eyes. Once he lost that special ability, he
wouldn’t be able to earn money with it anymore, and he would be back to square one.
Therefore, Oliver’s biggest concern is, first, to save arge amount of cash, and second, to purchase
moremercial properties that can generate rental ie.
Oliver was just about to reply to Manuel and say that he received the money when Manuel
unexpectedly called him.
Oliver quickly answered, “Hello, Manuel? I got the money, I got the money. I told you not to rush to
transfer the money now. Thepany needs liquid cash, and I don’tck money here. I still have 120
to 140 million dors in cash in my bank
ount.”
Manuel said with a smile, “I told you I don’tck money either. Your batch of jadeite sources brought me
a prepayment of a full 180 million dors. After giving you 2.4 billion dors, thepany still has 800
million dors in cash, which is enough: If thepany needs money, I’lle to you, so don’t worry.
But I’m not calling you about money. I’m calling you to go to Hobat…”
“What are we going to Hobat for?” Oliver was stunned and asked.
Manuel said, “Well, I have a friend who is in the rosewood business. He said that recently there were a
large number of raw materials such as scentedwood and sandalwood that is said to be imported from
East Ynd. But these things are all about gambling, just like gambling with stones. My friend is short
on funds and wants me to subsidize him. I’m usually not fond of gambling because more often than not,
you lose. However, I suddenly thought about how skilled you are at gambling with stones. Maybe you
will also be good at gambling with wood, right?”

Oliver felt a stir in his heart. Although he had never gambled with wood and had never seen it, his eyes
could identify all things, right?
After thinking for a while, Oliver replied to Manuel, “Sure, bro. I’ll back you up. I’m confident in my skills
of gambling with wood, just you know. It’s best not to partner with anyone else. Just the two of us can
make a profit together.”
Because Oliver had never seen how wood gambling worked and had no knowledge of it, his statement
wasn’t an absolute guarantee, but he stated that he was confident in his skills of gambling with wood.
Hearing this, Manuel was overjoyed and said with a smile, “Great, I understand. I’ve got a handle on
this matter. I’ll arrange for ne tickets and have someonee to pick you up shortly. Just provide
me with your headcount and personal information, and I’ll n the trip.”
Oliver agreed. After hanging up the phone, he took photos of his, Wayne’s, and Simon’s ID cards and
sent them to Manuel. After thinking for a while, he decided to request Fabian’s ID card and sent it to
Manuel as well.
Oliver had just returned from Manchernius, so he was not in a hurry to go there for a while. Fabian
didn’t have much work to do when he stayed at thepany. Besides, he was an old hand in the
business world, so Oliver decided to take him along
to broaden his horizons.
As soon as Fabian heard that he was going to Hainn for wood gambling, his interest was piqued.
Although Fabian was a stone gambling veteran, he had never ventured into the world of wood
gambling, although he had heard of it.
In essence, wood gambling wasn’t much different from stone gambling. Both relied on surface
inspection.
Since no one could see whaty inside the wood or stone, everything was based on the appearance
for gambling.
Winning meant huge profits, while losing meant losing all your money.
Fabian never even bothered to ask Oliver about the details. He hadplete faith in Oliver’s skills in
stone gambling.
In Fabian’s heart, there was nothing his young boss couldn’t do, especially when it came to gambling,
where he was almost always certain to win.
If it were anyone else, Fabian would probably advise his boss to be cautious and not rush into
something like gambling.
But Fabian didn’t worry about Oliver at all. In his mind, the only thing he thought about was how much
money his boss would make on this trip.
Manuel arrived in a few minutes, arranged for two cars to pick them up, and then drove them directly to
the airport.
But Manuel didn’t bring anyone along, as Oliver and his two bodyguards were sufficient. Moreover,
Oliver and he were like two peas in a pod, and he had no worries, as he was ready to follow Oliver to
make money and get rich.
