The Seventh Base-Chapter 604 - 43 Scumbag
Chapter 604 -43 Scumbag
Princess Elizabeth was stunned for several seconds, which was a rare state for her.
Orders worth hundreds of billions in just a few days?
Although Ross had previously planned their blueprint with Princess Elizabeth, it was, after all, just a concept. Princess Elizabeth hadn’t done the calculations herself. When Carter and Ize gave her the shares, she thought the 10% stake, worth billions, was within an acceptable range.
But now, how much was her 10% stake worth?
Though it was just orders worth hundreds of billions, not profit, securing such orders within a few days meant that if the company continued to progress steadily, what would be the extent of their growth in the future?
Princess Elizabeth found herself unable to do the math now!
Born into the royal family of Lucas Star, Princess Elizabeth had never lacked money. However, when such a terrifying amount of wealth was presented before her, the impact was still very profound.
Orders worth hundreds of billions now, but what about trillions, tens of trillions, or even more in the future…
Such immense interests would even tempt the nobility and royal families.
“Are you sure?” Princess Elizabeth asked Carter after a moment of silence.
“When Ross told me, I confirmed it myself, there can be no mistake,” Carter replied.
“Sigh…” Princess Elizabeth said, “Carter, looking at it now, your birthday gift seems a bit too precious.”
Carter had not anticipated that the 5% of shares he gifted would end up being so valuable.
“Miss Elizabeth, wealth in itself is not of great importance to us, but it can bring other benefits, which I believe are what Miss Elizabeth needs. Even knowing its value today, I would make the same choice,” Carter said.
“Thank you,” Princess Elizabeth said, feeling a warmth in her heart.
Indeed, wealth itself did not hold much meaning for her, as she had always lived a life without concerns for food and clothing.
However, if she desired other things, then wealth would be useful. Carter’s words were subtle, but Princess Elizabeth understood them clearly. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
“May I always protect Miss Elizabeth,” Carter said ambiguously, then hung up the communicator.
After Carter hung up, Princess Elizabeth dialed Mr. Ross’s number.
“Princess Elizabeth,” Mr. Ross said with great respect.
“Mr. Ross, no need to be so formal, just call me Elizabeth,” Princess Elizabeth said.
Mr. Ross could definitely sense some change in Miss Elizabeth. Although she had always respected him before, this time, it seemed to escalate to another level.
The clever Tard people naturally knew the reason—it was due to the enormous wealth brought by the company.
However, this also satisfied the vanity of the Tard people.
Even the esteemed Royal Princess treated him with exceptional respect, telling him to call her by her first name.
“Miss Elizabeth, is there anything you need me to help with?” Mr. Ross asked, roughly guessing the reason Princess Elizabeth had contacted him.
“No,” Princess Elizabeth said. “Mr. Ross, the incident with Douglas a few days ago started because of me. If similar events occur in the future, you can come directly to me.”
“Alright, I actually have something to ask of Miss Elizabeth regarding tax incentives,” Mr. Ross said. The clever Tard person was already thinking about tax incentives, considering the substantial amount involved.
“Alright, I’ll see what I can do,” Princess Elizabeth said. She had rarely dealt with such matters before, but as a member of the royal family, she still had the ability to handle them.
“Thank you, Miss Elizabeth,” Mr. Ross said.
“As a shareholder of the company, it’s part of my duty,” Princess Elizabeth responded, exchanging pleasantries before hanging up the communicator.
Clearly, Princess Elizabeth’s attitude towards Blue Star Energy Technology Group had changed.
At the Ize family, Ize was being scolded by his father.
“I warned you before. I don’t oppose your interaction with Princess Elizabeth, but you must know your limits. Douglas is from Prince Charles’s side. Princess Elizabeth hit him, and that’s one thing, but why did you join in?” Ize’s father said frustratingly.
The Minister of Defense was extremely furious when he learned that Douglas had been publicly beaten. He couldn’t do anything to Princess Elizabeth, so he had to take it out on Ize and Carter instead.
“Father, Douglas’s actions were despicable. He plotted against Blue Star Energy Technology and insulted Elizabeth. He deserved it,” Ize said.
“Nonsense, don’t you know who instigated Douglas?” Ize’s father scolded. “Also, that company, I see Blue Star Energy Technology as a place full of controversies. Better disentangle yourself early on, give your shares to Miss Elizabeth.”
As a great nobleman of Lucas Star and the head of the interstellar bank, Ize’s father could easily afford to give away shares.
“Now to give them away, isn’t it a bit of a pity?” Ize said, recalling the recent news and showing a strange expression.
“What’s there to pity about it? Even if your shares are worth a billion in the future, consider it a favor,” Ize’s father said. Ize had a 5% stake.
“A billion in the future?” Ize said. “Father, by now, it should already be worth more than that.”
“What do you mean,” Mr. Yi asked.
“I just received news that Blue Star Energy Technology Group has secured their first batch of orders in the past few days, with the total amount in the hundreds of billions,” Ize said.
