Chapter 37 Gratitude
In the white main building in the center of the Gracie Manor.
Morgan Gracie's secretary hurried in from the outside and said excitedly as she walked:
"Mr. Gracie, the matter of the California City branch has come to an end!"
"Oh? What's the result? So soon? What's the result?" When Mr. Gracie heard about his grandson, he was excited to hear the news.
"The California City branch sold the Aerial garden houses at a 30 percent discount. Most of the users who are clamoring to back out no longer wanted to do so after hearing the 30 percent discount. The storm has subsided." The secretary said with a smile.
"30% discount? This is very similar to my idea. If it were me, I would sell it at a discount like this, which is probably the best solution." Morgan Gracie nodded with satisfaction.
Morgan Gracie had been in the business of shopping malls for many years. He would not care too much about the immediate gains and losses. When it was time to earn less, then he had to earn less, and he would be able to earn it back in the future.
That was what business was like. How could there be a good thing that could be guaranteed every time? If he encountered this kind of trouble, he would not be reluctant to give up, and eventually lead to huge losses that will only outweigh the gain.
Then, Mr. Gracie hurriedly asked:
"Who came up with the idea of selling at a discount?"
"It was put forward by the young master. I heard that when the young master first proposed it, several other managers still had some doubts, but the young master resisted public opinions and made the final decision." The secretary said with a smile.
"Not bad! Not bad!" After hearing the words, Mr. Gracie roared with laughter.
"I'm also worried that this kid can't handle it well. After all, he's inexperienced and young. I'm afraid he's indecisive and dare not make a decision. I didn't expect him to make such a big decision!" Mr. Gracie's face was covered with a smile of relief.
Morgan Gracie was very aware of the difficulty of dealing with this matter. If the average businessman encountered this kind of trouble, it would be a headache. Mr. Gracie originally thought that Martin James would have difficulty in dealing with this problem.
And the way Martin James handled it gave him a great surprise.
"Yes, it definitely takes a lot of courage to make a decision to sell at a 30% discount. I didn't expect that the young master would have the courage to make such a decision." The secretary sighed.
"This boy is surprising me more and more." The smile on Mr. Gracie's face grew stronger.
Mr. Gracie himself did not expect that Martin James could solve such a big problem perfectly.
"By the way, my lord, the Mars Group is plotting against us, the Gold Group. Shall we give him something to keep busy?" Asked the secretary.
"Let my grandson do it. It's still an exercise for him. I'll help him secretly when necessary." Mr. Gracie said.
California City University.
Noon, boys' dormitory.
"Martin! Do you know what happened to that bastard Hardy Barrie?"
As soon as Martin James entered the dormitory, the fat man excitedly greeted Martin James.
"How's it going?" Martin James asked casually.
"Even the school knew about yesterday's live broadcast of him eating shit. The school asked the administrator of the page to delete the post, but everyone knows about it. It's no use to delete it. How can Hardy Barrie have the face to stay in school? He's suspended." The fat man said excitedly.
"Is he suspended? He deserves it." Martin James smiled coldly.
Assholes like Hardy Barrie, who have only tarnished his reputation, were already cheap for him.
"To celebrate the tarnishing of Hardy Barrie's reputation, I'll treat you to lunch." Martin James said, patting his chest.
Martin James was still in a good mood, not only because of Hardy Barrie, but also because of the Aerial garden.
"Martin, this means you're rich! Hey, hey! There's another big meal." When the fat man heard Martin James's treat, he immediately applauded happily.
Fat man knew the identity of Martin James as Morgan Gracie's grandson, and he certainly understood that if Martin James treats him to dinner it would be a big meal.
"By the way, Martin, why don't you call Janet, too?" The fat man winked at Martin James with a bad smile.
Naturally, the purpose of fat person was to encourage Martin James and Janet Brown.
"Good." Martin James smiled.
To be honest, Martin James was looking forward to having dinner with Janet Brown.
So, Martin James took out his cell phone and called Janet Brown.
"Martin, I have some good news to share with you!"
Martin James hasn't spoken to her since they went to the bar. Janet Brown's happy voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Oh? What's the good news?" Martin James hurriedly asked.
"Just now a manager of the Gold Group came to me. He said that his company was conducting public welfare activities, and my family was chosen!" Janet Brown on the other end of the phone sounded very excited.
"Really? That's a good thing." Martin James smiled.
This so-called public welfare activity was arranged by Martin James.
It's just that Martin James didn't expect it soon. The efficiency of Michael Bess was quite high. He only ordered it to him this morning, and he had put things into practice now.
"Martin, I'm in the hospital right now, and they've started to arrange for my mother to start seeing a doctor. It's all paid for by the Gold Group, and my mother can finally recover! In addition, the Gold Group also gave me 50, 000 dollars, saying it was a grant for me." There was still excitement in the voice of Janet Brown.
Martin James could imagine how Janet Brown must be jumping with joy right now.
It warmed Martin James's heart to see Janet Brown so happy.
He was no longer a useless poor boy, and now had the ability to help the people he wanted to help!
"Then. Have you accepted the fifty thousand dollars of financial aid?" Martin James knew Janet Brown's character, and with her character, she probably won't take the money.
"I didn't want to take it. I was happy that they helped my mother. I was very satisfied, but they had to give it. They said that if I wouldn't accept it, they wouldn't help my mother, so I had to accept it." Janet Brown said.
Hearing that Janet Brown had accepted the money, Martin James was completely relieved.
Despite the fact that 50, 000 dollars was a small amount of money for Martin James, but for Janet Brown, it was definitely a huge sum of money.
"The Gold Group helped me complete the sponsorship task yesterday, and today it helped me and my mother to cure her illness. Gold Group is my benefactor. When I graduate, I must work for the Gold Group and repay the Gold Group!" Janet Brown's earnest voice came from the phone.
He could imagine how grateful Janet Brown was to Gold Group.
It was just that Janet Brown did not know the truth at all. The person who helped her was actually Martin James. If she knew this, he didn't know how she would react.
"Well, you are a grateful girl. I understand." Martin James replied with a smile.
"By the way, Martin, you called me. What can I do for you?" Janet Brown asked.
"I was going to ask if you were at school. Let's have lunch together. But you're in the hospital now, so maybe next time." Martin James said.
Janet Brown was in the hospital, she would not be able to come, so Martin James and the fat man went straight out of school.
After getting out of school.
"Martin. Where are we going to eat?" Asked the fat man.
"Go to the Feast Restaurant!" Martin James told him
"What? Still going to the Feast Restaurant? Martin thought of the last time we were at the Feast Restaurant and the manager was angry. Why do we go there?" The fat man looked puzzled.
The last time Martin James and the fat man ate at the feast restaurant, Martin James's wallet was stolen. The manager of the feast restaurant insisted that Martin James was a liar. He said that Martin James ate the meals but did not want to pay, and had to report them to the police to arrest Martin James.
At that time, it was Kelly Mike who paid for Martin James' food and everything went smoothly afterwards.
"Because of what happened last time, we have to go there even more. At least the manager should understand that we are not poor people who can't afford to eat, are we?" Martin James said.
The last time, it also made Martin James angry. The grandson of Morgan Gracie was ridiculed by an old scoundrel when they had dinner.
It was just that Martin James was in a hurry to chase Kelly Mike, so he didn't get the chance to deal with the manager!
"Martin, when you say that, I understand what you mean. We are going to correct our name this time, aren't we?" The fat man grinned.
Martin James smiled and nodded. "That's right, let's go."
On the way to the restaurant, Martin James called Michael Bess and asked him to contact the owner of the restaurant to buy it for him.
If the owner of the feast restaurant did not want to sell, then increase the price! Martin James was not short of money!
The Feast Restaurant which was the highest-grade restaurant near California City University.
Martin James and the fat man went inside the feast restaurant.
"Welcome!"
As soon as they entered the hotel, a waitress greeted them warmly.
"This way, please." The waitress made a gesture of invitation, and then led Martin James to the table.
"Stop!"
No sooner had Martin James and Fatso walked in that a loud voice rang out.
