Tamakawa, who was walking in front of him, stumbled and almost lost his footing.
She stabilized her stance, but she could only continue to act as if nothing had happened, only that soft and pretty face was quietly dyed a blush.
Jason was also speechless for a moment, and had the urge to gag Old Mr. Miller.
God damn it, this old man is really something, knowing that Tamakawa understands the Carovian language and still muttering like this, isn’t this just to make people feel bad?
But Jason knew that there was no point in trying to persuade Old Mr. Miller, hadn’t he done so much in the past? Old Mr. Miller just can’t get over this problem.
Coming to sit on the sofa in the hall, seeing that Jason was about to prepare to make tea, Tamakawa came to accept the job ahead of him, and in terms of skills in the tea ceremony, her standard of tea art was not inferior to Claire.
Although the villa tea brewing some specialized utensils, water quality and so on is limited, far from allowing her to fully play out their tea skills, but after her hands out of the tea soup is still ten times stronger than Jason a hundred times.
Old Mr. Miller looked at Tamakawa’s tea making skills, and his eyes were full of admiration, and he looked at Tamakawa with satisfaction.
With that gaze, she was already treating Tamakawa as her eldest granddaughter-in-law.
With Jason’s knowledge of Old Mr. Miller, how could he not see what this old man was thinking?
Just in front of Tamakawa he was too embarrassed to remind anything, after Tamakawa made the tea and poured it out towards the cup he smiled and said, “Thank you, thank you.”
“Why are you so polite? It’s just a favor.” Tamakawa said with a light smile.
Old Mr. Miller has picked up the tea cup and tasted a mouthful, the tea flavor overflows out of the teeth, the end is good, he said, “Tamakawa girl said a lot, you kid so polite to be out of place. These two families respect each other like a guest is good, but also can not be too polite to see outside.”
“Pfft…”
Jason just had a sip of tea, and I don’t know if the tea was too hot or what, but he didn’t hold back and sprayed it out. Luckily, he was able to turn his head in time, otherwise Tamakawa, who was sitting on the opposite side of the table, would have suffered.
“Jason, you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry. It’s the same with this tea tasting. It’s a wonder you don’t get scalded if you drink it the way you do by chewing the peony.” Old Mr. Miller said slowly.
I … am not fucking burned okay?
Just don’t say anything else that doesn’t make sense!
Jason ignored Old Mr. Miller’s flirtation as he looked over to Tamakawa and asked, “How have operations been going on this side of City of Doom lately? I’ve heard from Kataoka and the others that you’re all very busy, after all, there’s a lot of things that only you can handle, so it’s really hard on you.”
Tamakawa smiled, showing off her beauty as she said, ”Since the reconstruction has just been completed, the accumulated workload is a bit more, but as long as we are busy through this period of time, it will be fine, so it’s not that hard to talk about. Currently, there are a total of fifteen forces settled in, there are still a lot of forces applying to settle in, and will be screened later. In addition to paying a certain amount of management fees, these forces will receive 10% to 30% of the profits from the various industries that City of Doom is responsible for, depending on the industry. This is only for the resident forces, we at City of Doom also own many core industries, such as the Doomsday Fighting Arena, black market trading, Doomsday Castle Hotel, and so on.”
Jason nodded, some of the core industries in City of Doom could only be held in their own hands so that the benefits could be maximized.
However, with so many things to deal with on her own, it’s not hard to imagine how much responsibility Tamakawa has and how extremely busy she is. While White Fox was able to help her when she returned, she had to rely on herself when White Fox was away.
Tamakawa went on to say, “Since City of Doom is just getting up and running after the rebuild, there was a lot of capital invested up front. Based on my projections, by the end of the year in this last quarter, we will have not only recouped the capital invested in the redevelopment, but will have a net profit in the neighborhood of $200 million.”
Jason was secretly surprised when he sniffed; such a profit could be considered high.
It is important to know that the City of Doom has only begun to operate, and then all industries will be completely revitalized, and as more forces move in, the profits earned will climb even higher.
Jason calculated that relying on City of Doom and Devil’s Army Factory, a profit of three to four billion dollars a year would not be a problem, but accordingly, Jason’s annual expenses were astronomical.
The ranks of warriors under his command had grown to thousands, and not to mention all the expenses, the amount of money burned in each battle was massive.
So the more money this makes, the more it is spent, but it is also spent quickly, and it is still necessary to find ways to continue to expand the industry and continue to make money.
Jason took a sip of tea and said with a smile, ”It seems that I wasn’t wrong to believe in you in the first place. No, with your ability, you have managed this City of Doom very well. In this regard, your talent happens to be able to be utilized, but it is a great credit.”
Hearing that, Tamakawa’s soft jade face blushed a little as if she was embarrassed.
She thought back to when Jason had asked her in her ear if she wanted to be Queen of City of Doom.
At the time, she was really surprised and thought to herself that she didn’t have the ability.
But Jason had complete confidence in her, which seemed to give her great encouragement and courage, and she did her best to try and do a good job.
But isn’t Jason already the recognized King of Doom and she’s a bit of a queen if she’s the Queen of City of Doom?
She blushed even more at the thought.
Jason thought of something and said, “Kataoka said you just came back to City of Doom from Tokyo. went back a while ago?”
“Yeah, something went back.” Tamakawa spoke up and continued, “It’s Prince …”
At this point, Tamakawa remembers that Old Mr. Miller was present, and it doesn’t seem appropriate to talk about this, so she stops.
“Prince?”
Jason frowned, a chill flashing under his eyes.
“It’s nothing, it’s over anyway.” Tamakawa gave a smile and glanced at Jason, looking imploring, “Let’s talk about it a little later.”
Tamakawa then looked to Old Mr. Miller and said with a smile, “Since Old Mr. Miller is here, let’s stay for a few more days. There’s food and drink and fun here.”
Old Mr. Miller grinned, looked very happy, said: “must must. Tamakawa girl is really very good, as a royal princess but does not have any pampered pettiness. Instead, she is so approachable, and her speech and demeanor, talent and ability are even more convincing. Jason is also blessed.”
“Old Mr. Miller, could you cut the crap?” Jason was truly speechless.
Tamakawa’s cheeks burned a little too, but her excellent upbringing and style prevented her from squirming, and instead she graciously chatted with Old Mr. Miller for a while.
It was about sunset when Tamakawa left to meet up again for dinner tonight.
