After Brian joined Top Group, he negotiated severalrge-scale cooperations and the scale of thepany gradually increased.

    However, the most profitable industry in Capern City is the real estate, so Brian and Grace discussed and decided to start entering the real estate industry.

    Coincidentally, a few dayster, there was a local auction.

    Nelson was in a hurry to show Casper some results. He worked overtime for a few nights andpleted the project in advance. He gave Casper his market research and careful calctions.

    Francis Group had made a fortune in real estate from the very beginning. Seeing how hard he worked, Casper praised him. "Well done. Did you get a good look at thend?"

    Nelson said, "Grandpa, I''m optimistic about thend on Prosper Street, which is 210 acres ofnd. Prosper Street is located in a new district, and it''s developing well. It''s definitely profitable."

    Casper nodded. "But there must be a lot of people bidding for this piece ofnd. We still have to check out the other pieces ofnd as a backup."

    Casper looked at him and patted his shoulder. "Do your best!"

    "Grandpa," Nelson suddenly called out to him.

    Casper turned to look at him.

    He said extremely sincerely, "Grandpa, I know that you might not trust me, but I still want to do something for Francis Group. I''ve never thought of fighting with Brian for anything. Even if you call Brian back now, I won''t have anyints."

    Casper looked at him for a long time. In the end, he pondered for a while and said, "If thend we bid for this time can bring more than 15% profit, I''ll give you half of the shares of thepany."

    Nelson said, "I won''t let you down."

    On the day of the auction, Grace and Brian went together and encountered Nelson and Alicia as soon as they arrived.

    Nelson smiled and greeted him, "Long time no see, Brian."

    Brian nced at him and smirked sarcastically. "The Francis Group is in the IT business. Why are you here for the real estate? I hope you do not fail."

    Nelson said, "Thank you for your reminder, Brian. However, I''m representing Francis Group today. If

    I did anything wrong, please correct me as the former CEO."

    "Are you worthy?" Brian said lightly as he held Grace''s hand and walked into the elevator.

    Nelson was not angry. He followed him into the elevator and tidied his hair in front of the mirror. "Looks like Brian is very confident. We''ll see."

    Brian did not say anything else. The bidding officially began.

    Brian did not bid. When the piece ofnd at Prosper Street came out, he raised his sign first.

    Not long after, Nelson also raised his sign. Brian raised the bid for the second time.

    Meanwhile, Nelson was silently calcting the costs and profits in his heart and continued to increase the price.

    Brian continued to raise the price as well.

    Only Francis Group and Top Group

    werepeting for thisnd, but Nelson knew that Brian''s goal was just to provoke him and raise the price so that he would not have any profit to make. He would not fall for

    it.

    However, when Nelson raised the price for thest time, Brian suddenly stopped.

    Grace also thought that Brian would

    continue to bid because if he

    continued to bid, the profit of this

    piece ofnd would be around 8%. It

    was considered normal.

    She asked, "Brian, are we not going to raise the price?"

    After the auctioneer''s gavel sounded, Brian smiled in satisfaction and turned to

    look at her. "I''ll tell you when we get back."
