"That's not strange, okay? Considering his family background, it's normal for his parents to leave him some precious metals and cash. It's a reasonable way to avoid taxes. As long as the IRS doesn't find out, he won't be subject to inheritance tax. "
Jeremy continued, "Then there's the second question. First of all, André transferred to Linden two months ago at the start of the summer, and he's only been in the comprehensive Cold Weapon Combat Club for less than 20 days. Secondly, this student has a strong sense of anti-reconnaissance. Three days ago, when he went to the Laurel Street black market, if it weren't for my personal ability and the Sky's Eye Detective Agency's special magic weapon, he would have gotten rid of us. "
Dwight crossed his fingers in front of his chest and looked at Jerry Burt quietly. Although he didn't know what Jeremy meant by the latter sentence and what it had to do with his question, he knew that Jeremy must have something else to say.
"Then, in the process of following him, we found two groups of people who were also paying attention to this student, André."
Then, Jeremy Burt placed a few more photos in front of Dwight. "I've done some research. These people are from the Razor Mercenary Group. It's a small mercenary group, and they have an outsider. We found out that 15 days ago, they received an employment commission. The deposit came from a Wildenstein family account, suspected to belong to André's blood sister, Jennifer Wildenstein. Don't worry about these people. They were easily shaken off by André. Then there's this one — "
Jeremy took out another photo and pointed at it with his finger. "Look at this big shot's side. I think you should have some impression of him by now. I remember that you were also there at the governor's celebration party, and you even had close contact with this person. "
"It's him?"
Dwight was obviously surprised, and then he frowned. "You mean, the previous André might have been hiding his strength?"
Jeremy shrugged. "I'm not sure, just guessing that it's possible. But what is certain is that this student, André, is more important to the Wildenstein family than we imagined. The internal strife of the Wildenstein family has also affected him. "
Dwight did not ask any more questions. He closed his eyes, lost in thought. Only ten seconds later, he turned his head and instructed his chief assistant, "Carl, inform the marketing department later to offer Andre Lee Wildenstein a generous sponsorship agreement until he joins NMOSA. Tell them that this is something that I will personally pay attention to. Tell them to correct their attitudes and take him down as soon as possible. Of course, don't forget to state in the contract that you have the priority to sign the contract! "
"Yes, Sir Executive! I will personally follow up on this matter. "
Carl did not raise any objection. He was only slightly puzzled. "If I understand correctly, this' generous' means the best treatment under the conditions, right?"
"You did not misunderstand, Mr. Carl! He deserves our courtesy. "
Dwight looked at Burt. "Before that, you can bring Mr. Burt to the finance department and settle the balance."
"Hey!"
At this moment, Jeremy Burt laughed and said, "Sir, I have to mention something here. "Sir, I have to mention that the balance must be 500,000 gold duns."
Dwight frowned and cast an inquiring look at his assistant. The latter's face immediately turned red. "Sir, the agreement we signed is 50,000 gold duns —"
"But André is worth this price, isn't he?"
Jeremy Burt interrupted Carl and gathered all the documents on his desk. "I think Nathan Sports Group is not the only one interested in him. For example, Acadis Sports Goods Company?"
Dwight could not help but take off his glasses, and his gaze became sharp. "I think there should be a confidentiality clause in our agreement. I guess Carl will not make such an oversight."
Jeremy replied with a smile, "Of course! Your assistant is very shrewd and very experienced when negotiating the price. But who knows what will happen in the future ten minutes later? Maybe one of our little employees in the Sky Eye Detective Agency will inadvertently leak the information? Fortunately, the breach of contract we agreed on is only 500,000 gold duns. "
"This is not in line with business ethics, Jeremy!"
Dwight narrowed his eyes. "You should know the power of Nathan Sports Group. I can guarantee that within a day, the entire business community in Atlanta will have a good understanding of the credibility of your firm."
"That is indeed something you can do."
Jeremy Burt did not care. "But if our firm cannot survive, what is the use of credibility and ethics? Dwight, this is not good for you. He is an opportunity for you. Don't think I don't know that you have been trying to build an NMOSA fighting star to compete with the one in the Western Region, right? I think this André is very suitable. "
Dwight was silent again. After a long time, he let out a soft snort. "We haven't seen each other for a long time, but you are still as shameless as ever, Jeremy!"
"Thank you for the compliment!" Jeremy was not ashamed. Instead, he was proud of it. He rubbed his palms together and smiled. "Since Mr. Executive has said so, does that mean you agree?"
"Carl, ask the General Information Department to give them a few commissions worth 450,000 gold duns. Don't forget to amend the previous agreement. The breach of contract is set at 20 million, unlimited liability. "
As Dwight spoke, he leaned back with a leisurely expression. "Also, for the sake of our past friendship, I can give your firm another additional commission. In the next year, you can ensure the safety of this student, André. Are you confident, Mr. Burt? "
Hearing this, Jeremy Burt's expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes became serious.
Dwight did not wait for Jeremy's answer. He turned his office chair and looked out the window. "Carl, there are some changes to the schedule for tonight. By the way, inform the Information Department and ask them to send the video of today's match to my office. "
"Video of the match? Sir, are you planning to watch André's match? If that's the case, I don't think it's necessary. "
Carl, who was beside him, was unsurprisingly met with his superior's cold gaze. He could only reply with a bitter smile. "I have no intention of interfering with your schedule, but as far as I know, André's opponent this time, Mad Bear Bill, has been hospitalized this morning due to acute hemorrhagic enteritis. He can no longer participate in today's match. He is also one of our sponsors. His father informed the company about this an hour ago. I heard that this poor little fellow had a wild party yesterday, and it seemed that he had eaten some unclean things … "
Dwight could not be bothered with the reason for Mad Bear Bill's hospitalization. After hearing this, he only pursed his lips in a slightly happy manner. "Is that so? It seems that we are quite lucky. "
Jeremy also felt that this former colleague of his was extremely lucky.
Without this match, the rare treasure of Linden College would still be buried in the gravel, waiting to be picked up by Nathan Sports Group.
