The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 80

"I can only give you the capital to start up your company under one condition." Darius' grandfat her declared in an authoritative tone.

Darius gulped slowly at that, but braced himself to ask the condition.

"What condition, grandfather?" Darius asked tentatively.

"You have to make a profit of five times the original capital I give you in one year." His grandfath er answered domineeringly. Darius eyes

widened in surprise at his grandfather's condition.

He had to make five times the original capital in a single year?! That was a very tall condition, es pecially for him!

Darius had only little experience which was gained only after managing a few assets like Nix Inc. and other businesses for a few months.

Even at that, he had not made five times the profit they usually earned.

Darius was feeling very unpleasant at that moment, but he

forced himself to calm down. He had not yet known how much his grandfather was willing to giv e him as capital. Hopefully it won't be a very

large sum. If it was, it would be really impossible to earn five times the profit in a year.

As Darius was beginning to see a glimmer of hope, his grandfather next words once again crush ed his spark of hope.

"I'll be giving you 50 billion dollars as capital, which means that next year you should have made a profit of 250 billion dollars." His

grandfather said imperiously,

Darius eyes bulged wildly in shock at that statement

so billion dollars?!

It was the complete opposite of what he expected!

He was imperting his grandfather to give

him a capital of about 1 2 billion dollars. That way. he would be providing profit of 5 10 billion d ollars at

the end of the year Bulth was completely beyond his expectations h andfather had give n more than ten

Distus was feeling very contacted at that moment, but before he could even thunk further esbou st his

situation, his grandfather stood up suddenly

empty building

As he walked, he thought deeply about his actions towards his grandson. He indeed thought tha t it

was a bit of a stretch for an inexperienced Darius to make so much profit in a year, but he kn ew that he

had no choice but to do so. He knew that Darius was still inexperienced when it cam e to matters like

this, and what better way to make Darius more experienced than to throw such a challenge at him?

James was sure that if Darius could overcome this challenge, he would be way more capable than he

was now!

He let out a helpless sigh as he walked. As soon as he came out from the building, the bodyguar ds

rushed out and surrounded him.

Without even uttering a word, the three beautiful white Rolls-

Royce cars appeared and drove to where he stood. A bodyguard from the side instantly rushed t o the

door of the Rolls-Royce and opened it while bowing deeply.

James and his assistant Bruce got into the white Rolls-

Royce car in the middle, before the bodyguard closed the door. A few seconds later, the three be autiful

white Rolls-Royce sped off.

At this time, Erin was inside the conference room with Darius. Darius had a dejected look on his f ace

as he recounted some details of his conversation he had with his grandfather to Erin.

Darius was really troubled at that moment. Two hundred and fifty billion dollars was no joke. He I et out a troubled sigh. While others were

busy scraping for money to get by, Darius was busy thi nking on how to spend so much money.

Although Erin was indeed really troubled at the moment,

she was not as troubled as Darius was. She felt that he was thinking too much about it. They still had a year to make the required profit. It

wasn't something they should rush.

It took a lot of time before she managed to convince Darius to not place too much worry on it, b ut Darius was finally convinced.

The rest of the week passed quickly. The former Erihal Group headquarters was demolished and renovated into a very regal building. It was

twice as regal as it was before. Darius didn't know ho w much

his grandfather had spent on the renovations, but Darius knew that his grandfather must have sp ent a very hefty sum. While the renovation

was going on, Darius wasn't idle. That was far from it. He and Erin took their time in scouring through the details of several people who were

searching for jobs, as well as experienced veterans in the corporate world.

After several days of sleepless nights, Darius finally got 40 new employees for his company. The number of employees was supposed to be

more than that, but majority of them were skeptical a bout 'West Atlantics IntT; after all it was a newly established company with

no background. Anyone would be skeptical

about leaving a well established company and working for a company with no name and backgr ound.

Darius wasn't too miffed about that. He was extremely confident

that with enough time, he would be able to attract even the most experienced of employees,

He was still thinking about his business matters when his phone rang. He quickly picked up his phone up, thinking that the call was related to

business matters and answered the call withou t checking the caller ID.

\Nhen he heard the caller's voice, his eyes widened in surprise. The phone call turned out to be fro m someone he least expected!
