They curiously asked, "What's the matter? You sounded urgent."

"Good news!" Shawn could not even hold back his smirk. "We're going to be rich this time!"

While Eric looked confused, Brandon sat opposite Shawn and asked, "What is it?"

"The federal government just had a meeting, and they've praised us for what we've done here in North Hill. Reporters will be interviewing us in the next two days. Until then, we'll be famous across the country."

Although Eric could not quite follow the details, he perked up and grinned when he heard he was about to make more money.

"But that's not all. Stephen Quinn wants to sell you a piece of land at a lower- than-market price to develop. It's that land that you've always wanted!"
