Getting $10 Trillion Out Of Nowhere - Chapter 1874

Chapter 1874: Mr.

Saul Zook Chapter 1874: Mr.

Saul Zook Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Upon hearing this, the crowd once again displayed shocked expressions.

“This person is actually the heir of the Zook family!” “Yes, I didn’t expect Mr.

Saul of YarlfordA to be here…” “I heard that he was studying abroad.

Why did he suddenly return?” “The Lee family is already formidable, and now a member of the Zook family has come.

It seems that something significant is about to happen in Porthampton…” “I wonder what brings Mr.

Saul here!” The people in attendance began to engage in hushed discussions, and their expressions towards Saul were filled with suspicion.

Although most of these people were from the Four Provinces, they had heard about the Zook family to some extent.

In their eyes, the Zook family and themselves were not on the same level, so they regarded Saul with a certain level of apprehension.

“You may not know me, but that’s alright.

I will be staying in Porthampton for a while, and we can gradually get to know each other,” Saul suddenly spoke up, addressing the crowd.

“Mr.

Saul, your family’s businesses are primarily in Yarlford.

What brings you to Porthampton?” someone asked.

“That’s an excellent question,” Saul smiled faintly and continued, “From my understanding, about 80% of you here rely on Empire World Corporation.

Over the years, Empire World Corporation has provided you with substantial assistance, and, of course, you have contributed significant funds in return.

Both parties have been in a cooperative relationship.

However, now that Mr.

Yannick has taken over the company, the Zook family intends to cooperate with Mr.

Yannick…” “How do you plan to cooperate?” the crowd inquired.

“The Zook family and Empire World Corporation intend to merge all your companies and enterprises into a large alliance.

This will make management more convenient, and once all these companies unite, our influence will grow, not only in Oprana but also internationally,” Saul said with a smile.

Suddenly, everyone present was left stunned.

They had not expected the Zook family and Yannick to have such grand ambitions.

Initially, when Connor was in charge, these people had a different arrangement.

They held 50% of their companies’ shares while Empire World Corporation held the other half.

Connor did not interfere with their companies’ management.

Essentially, they only had to give 50% of their profits to Empire World Corporation each year, but their companies remained under their control.

In simpler terms, they were the owners of their companies, and everything was decided by them.

Empire World Corporation, in return, provided them with significant support.

With this support, many of these companies saw their annual profits increase several times over, even after giving away half their earnings.

However, Saul’s words indicated a completely different approach.

If they agreed to his demands, it would mean surrendering their companies without receiving a single penny in return.

They would effectively become employees under Saul’s and Yannick’s control.

The two forms of cooperation may sound similar, but in practice, they were worlds apart.

“I never expected the Zook family to have such grand ambitions!” Wilvera couldn’t help but sigh softly.

“Mr.

Saul, are you suggesting that all our companies will be merged to form a new conglomerate?” an expressionless old man asked.

“That’s right.

That’s what I mean.” Saul did not deny it and nodded.

“In that case, we don’t know what benefits there will be for us,” someone else commented.

“Yes, if we all merge, will our companies still be under our control?” another person inquired.

“And how will the company’s shares be distributed?” The crowd bombarded him with questions.

“I understand that you all have concerns.

If you agree to merge, then all the shares of your companies will belong to me and Mr.

Yannick.

Of course, you can continue to operate your companies, but the profit distribution will be based on your annual production output…” Saul smiled as he explained.

The entire audience remained stunned and shocked by his audacious proposal.

If they agreed to this, it would mean that they were giving away their companies without receiving any compensation.

In the end, they would have to work under Saul’s and Yannick’s control.

Only a few were willing to accept this offer, and the majority couldn’t fathom surrendering their hard-earned companies in such a manner.

They had just realized how crucial Connor had been to them.

If Connor were still around, they wouldn’t be in such a predicament, as he had allowed them to maintain ownership and control over their companies.

However, now that Connor was gone, they were facing the threat of being consumed by Empire World Corporation.

Saul’s confidence stemmed from their heavy dependence on Empire World Corporation.

If they refused this offer, they would likely be crushed by Empire World Corporation in less than half a month.

“Does everyone understand my proposal?” Saul asked again, unperturbed by the reactions of the crowd.

“We understand, but I believe no one here will agree to your proposal!” a middle-aged man exclaimed.

“Ah, hahaha…” In response to this remark, Saul didn’t get angry; instead, he burst into laughter.

Then, he said calmly, “I see you might not quite understand.

I only wish to unite everyone; whether you agree or not, it’s your choice!” “This is not even worth considering.

I don’t think anyone will accept your proposal,” another middle-aged man added.

“I think Mr.

Saul’s proposal isn’t bad.

I’m willing to form an alliance with Empire World Corporation,” a senior suddenly spoke up.
