Chapter 152 A Reward
Did Zayla hide the photo?
Zayla hid it so well.
Zayla must cherish it.
It seemed that Zayla also had feelings for Lincoln.
Lincoln’s lips curled into a smile. His unhappiness from before was gone. After mixing the colors, he began to repair the mural.
Zayla picked up the document on the table and read it carefully.
This was the list of the things needed for the reconstruction of the West Building of the Snow Building. Ira made this list and a budget with his team.
Top-grade wood was needed. The Vargas Group had a specialized wood company with rich resources. They built up their family fortunes by doing wood business.
In the troubled times, the Vargas family had their ups and downs. Their ancestors made. a prompt decision to continue their old business while beginning to purchase large amounts of gold mines.
Gold was the most valuable in troubled times.
After Zayla’s father took over the Vargas Group, they began to do jade business.
They purchased several old jade mines, but those mines were new.
The West Building of the Snow Building must be perfectly restored.
So jade from old mines was needed.
Jade from new mines was far worse than that from old mines.
Zayla wanted to go to San Diego, the place with the most jade mines in America, to look for jade from old mines. She was willing to gamble on jade and go to auction houses.
Zayla did not expect that she would need so many rough stones.
Many old mines had been exploited, so there were very few of them now. Where could Zayla find so many top-grade rough stones from old mines?
Zayla looked at the immense number of rough stones needed and was at a loss.
It was not that Zayla did not have the money to purchase old jade mines, but there were no old mines available.
“I know someone who has old jade mines.”
Lincoln’s deep voice sounded. He took off his broken gloves and threw them into the trash can on the side.
Zayla immediately looked up and asked, “Who?”
“Mr. Gladstone.”
‘Mr. Marlowe Gladstone, a leading magnate in the antique world?” Zayla had heard her father mention this name before.
Lincoln nodded. “He has several old mines. Most of them have not been exploited.’
“Do his old mines have enough top-grade rough stones for the restoration of the West Building?”
“Yes.”
“Do you know him?”
“Yes.”
Zayla looked at Lincoln and smiled sweetly with her beautiful eyes narrowed. “Mr.
Nash?”
Lincoln looked at Zayla’s smile, raised his eyebrows, and leaned down with his hands
on the desk.
“Are you trying to flatter me?”
The restoration of the West Building needed rough stones from old mines. For the sake of the Snow Building and Twilight Studio…
Zayla nodded. “Do you want me to flatter you?”
Lincoln laughed.
Did Zayla try to seduce Lincoln?
“Is there a reward?”
Did Lincoln want a reward?
“Of course,” Zayla replied. “I will double your year-end bonus.”
What a practical, direct, and wonderful reward!
If Ira heard this, his eyes would light up. No one could resist the temptation of money.
However, Lincoln smiled faintly.
“It’s tempting but tacky.”
“What do you mean?”
“After you purchase old jade mines, I will ask you for my reward. How about it?”
