Chapter 165
David felt a little tired when he returned home, so he decided to have a nap. It was already night when he woke up but there had yet to be any updates from Pearl.
David gave it some thought before he directly dialed Pearl’s number. She was spending money too slowly, and it took her too long to discuss the details of an investment.
He needed to rush her a little.
He only had a hundred and two luxury points now.
That was too far from the amount he needed.
The call connected very quickly, and Pearl’s happy voice was heard from the other end.
“Hello, Mr. Lidell!”
“Miss Pearl! How’s it going?” David asked.
“Mr. Lidell, we’re currently negotiating the details of two companies that require our investment. The team is currently investigating the companies’ backgrounds, and the situation seems pretty optimistic right now. I’ll report again once the investigation is over,” Pearl replied.
“How’s it going over at Andy’s side? Have you been in contact yet?”
“We’ve already contacted Mr. Lewis, and we’ll go there once the investigation of the two companies is complete.”
“Progress is a little slow, Miss Pearl. If the team has already been built, then finalize a few investments as soon as possible. As long as the companies are suitable, it doesn’t matter if they’re only offering to sell premium shares. Try to choose companies that have already produced some form of result, and don’t waste time on insignificant companies.”
“If that’s the case, Mr. Lidell, then we might not be able to achieve the biggest profit. I think it would be better to invest in small companies with good potential,” Pearl replied.
David felt slightly despondent when he heard Pearl’s reply. He did not want the biggest profit, he wanted t o spend more money.

It was because he had not built his own powers and was not strong enough yet that he was afraid of garnering the attention of powerful people and stirring up trouble by suddenly spending too much money and acquiring too many companies. What he wanted was to purchase and acquire more. He did not care i f the company was among the top five hundred or one thousand companies in the world, he just wanted t o buy shares. If the company refused to sell shares, then he would just acquire the company.
He needed strength! Strength was what decided the victor. Without strength, he would have to watch his back even when he spent money, and he did not like that feeling.
Moreover, he still did not even know if his system was upgradable.
His current Body and Mind stats had already been maxed out and could not be further upgraded, yet he still did not have enough power.
This is why he needed to confirm if his system could be upgraded as soon as possible, or he would not be able to plan his next step.
His current goal was to save up to one thousand Luxury points and see if the system would give him any pop up any notifications, and if his Body and Mind stats could be further enhanced.
If they could not, then he would have to change his plans and hide somewhere to develop his powers.
If he could not raise his own strength, then he would have to rely on external forces.
If he could further enhance those stats, then his primary goal would be to make himself invincible before worrying about anything else.
Then he would no longer need to fear anything or anyone.
“Miss Pearl! What I need the most right now is results, not frugality! It’s going to take too long to wait for the small company to grow and make a profit. I don’t care how, but you must spend at least fifty billion by the end of this month while keeping a low profile,” David said.
“Huh? Mr. Lidell, I don’t think I heard you. Could you repeat that?” Pearl said after a moment.
Pearl actually heard him, but she just could not believe her ears and wanted to double-check.
“I said spend at least fifty billion by the end of this month on investments, though it would be much better i f you could spend a hundred billion. Just keep a low profile and don’t act too conspicuously, understood?”
Pearl was dazed on the other end of the line.
She could not believe David asked her to spend at least fifty billion this month.
She wondered if David had gone mad.
She had never heard of a boss who wanted his employees to spend his money like this.
Most people wanted to earn the biggest profit with the smallest costs-to spend the least amount of money on things with great potential.
She wondered if David just had too much money that he needed to spend, or if the man just disliked money as a whole.
She did not understand the minds of sons of wealthy families.
She wondered if there was a different reason behind David’s actions.
“Are you sure, Mr. Lidell? You want me to spend fifty billion? Not five billion? Or five hundred thousand?” Pearl asked again.
“Miss Pearl, I’m going to say it very clearly now. Yes, fifty billion dollars! At least. There’s no upper limit but try to keep a low profile and don’t attract unnecessary troubles.”
“Alright, sir! I understand. But it’s going to be a little difficult not to attract any attention spending so much money on investments in so little time.”
