“Kid, if you’ve got the guts, just kill me, or else…”

Jay Brent’s words were only halfway uttered when he could speak no more, as he keenly sensed the murderous intent flashing in Greg’s eyes.

At that moment, he suddenly had the delusion that this young man in front of him truly dared to kill him.

The next second, all that could be heard was Greg’s icy voice, “Want to die, do you? I can oblige you, but not now.

Go home and wait, I’ll come to kill you tonight!”

“You…”

Jay Brent’s face was extremely unpleasant, as a well-known boss in Jamae City, he was actually being threatened by a nobody.

If word of this got out, how would he ever be able to mix in Jamae again?

But at this moment, he didn’t dare utter a single harsh word, because he knew that this young man in front of him would do as he said.

This feeling, he didn’t know where it came from, but he was certain it was not wrong.

Seeing Greg about to turn and walk away, Jay Brent gritted his teeth and said, “That’s right, they were my men. Let’s call it even, I’ll take care of it.”

Greg paused in his step, turned around, and looked at him coldly, “One million, and from now on stay away from me. You are not allowed to appear where I am. Can you do that?”

“One million is no problem, but your latter demand is a bit too much, don’t you think?”

Parting with one million would pain Jay Brent, but against someone like Greg, a master of his caliber, that sum of money was of little concern.

But being asked to stay away from Greg, that was too much.

If he truly agreed to that, what would he, Jay Brent, amount to?

How would he ever mix in Jamae City again?

Greg let out a mocking smile, “You can refuse if you like. Next time I see you, I’ll just kill you directly.

That way, you’ll never appear in front of me again.”

“You… you dare!” Jay Brent said with menacing bravado.

“Heh.”

Greg sneered, “If you don’t believe it, feel free to try and see.”

Having said that, he turned and left, walking to the opposite side as if untouched by the prior events, his demeanor utterly relaxed.

In fact, Greg had indeed not been affected by Jay Brent because he had already expected him to pull such a stunt.

Plus, the men Jay Brent had sent over this time were too few; they weren’t even enough for Greg to warm up.

Inside Dreamscape Garden, Kingsley Harrison and others were anxiously waiting.

Seeing Greg return, he quickly went up to him and said anxiously, “Boss, are you okay?”

“I’m fine, what could be wrong? He’s just trash, I didn’t even consider him a threat.”

“Glad to hear you’re okay.”

Kingsley Harrison and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

“What about those guys?”

“They’ve been taken away by the patrol, they said they want you to come by later to give an additional statement.”

“Hmm.”

Greg nodded, glanced at the gate and said, “But it looks like we’ll have to replace this gate.”

“Haha, isn’t that just perfect? I’ve been finding this gate an eyesore for a while now, it’s about time to get a new one.”

“Alright, get back to work. Make it quick, we’re aiming to reopen within a week.”

“Got it, boss.”

After leaving Dreamscape Garden, Greg first went to the patrol office to make a simple statement. With surveillance in Dreamscape Garden, there were basically no issues at the patrol office.

After giving his statement, he drove to the Wright Clubhouse.

“Mr. Greg.”

“Mr. Greg…”

Brandon Brent and Big Liu, who had waited for quite a long time, quickly stood up.

Adrian Wright, sitting next to them, flashed a look of surprise mingled with admiration and laughed, “Greg, you finally made it. These brothers have been waiting for you for half the day.”

“Hmm.”

Greg smiled, sat down across from the two, and asked, “What’s the situation at home now?”

Big Liu hurriedly explained, “The third one is already preparing to organize the pickers, and the warm houses have all been built to avoid the herbs getting frost damage after being harvested.”

Greg looked at him with some surprise and asked, “According to the schedule, shouldn’t there be over a month left? Why are you harvesting so soon?”

Big Liu was also puzzled and said, “I have no idea what’s going on. It was indeed supposed to be over a month, but these herbs have been growing incredibly fast, and now they have reached maturity.

If we don’t harvest them now, the quality might be affected.”

“Hmm, you’ve done well.” Greg praised casually, his mind pondering that it must be the change in the Formation.

In the past, the bases of the formations were all carved from ordinary stones, but this time they had been replaced with Cold Pond stones, which significantly improved the effect compared to ordinary stones.

If they were all replaced with jade, the effect might be boosted even further.

He thought for a moment and decided that if the medicinal herb base in Jamae City really took off, he would switch all the formation bases to jade.

By doing so, it would not only greatly shorten the maturation time but also enhance the quality of the herbs, with only a slightly higher initial investment.

For Greg, these were not significant issues; the focus was on finding a suitable piece of land first.

Overjoyed by Greg’s praise, Big Liu smiled and asked, “Mr. Greg, what should I do next?”

“The old rule, find a piece of land and lease it for thirty years first.”

Greg turned to Adrian Wright beside him and joked, “For the specifics, you’ll have to ask Adrian here.”

“Ask me?”

Adrian was stunned and said hesitantly, “Do you mean you want me to take a stake in it?”

“Yes, whether you actually do it is up to you.”

“Do it, of course!”

Adrian and Spencer Burley trusted Greg unconditionally, so they agreed without a second thought.

Greg smiled and said, “Then I’ll give each of you fifteen percent of the shares, but you won’t get shares in the supermarket.”

“Haha, a vegetable base is good enough. We don’t need the rest. Just remember us for any good business deals in the future.”

“No problem.”

Greg laughed and then discussed the specifics with the two men.

Actually, running a vegetable base is quite easy; the only challenges are the quality and sales.

With Greg on board, the quality was naturally not a worry, and once the Peach Blossom grocery store opened in Jamae, there would be no concerns about sales either.

“So how many acres should we lease to start off with?” Adrian asked.

Greg pondered for a moment, then raised his head and suggested, “How about… we start with five hundred acres?”

“How much?”

“Five hundred acres?”

Both Adrian and Big Liu were shocked. They knew Greg wanted to make a big move, but they hadn’t expected it to be this big.

A Jamae city alone might not be able to consume the vegetables from five hundred acres of land.

Adrian expressed his concern, “Greg, isn’t that… a bit too much?”

“Not at all, and if worse comes to worst, we can plant medicinal herbs,” Greg replied, smiling. “Besides, who said Peach Blossom supermarket can only open in Jamae City? Qin Province is vast.”
