Chapter 859 Collaboration
The three spirit stone mining permits Raphael produced could be used internationally.
It meant that all countries and organizations in the world recognized that Raphael was the owner of the three spirit
stone mines.
However, as Raphael had just mentioned, all countries had begun to gather and store spirit stones in a frenzied
manner.
Obtaining these permits in such a situation showcased Raphael's remarkable capabilities.
Excitement wash over Raphael's face as he eagerly expressed, “You know, Donald, those coal mine owners of the
past were incredibly wealthy, right? Now that I find myself in the spotlight, I require someone to safeguard me.
After much thought, I firmly believe that you are the only one capable of protecting me and my three mines. So,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthow about we join forces and collaborate, Donald?”
Raphael had earned a formidable reputation as the world's most skilled businessperson. When faced with a
challenge from his rival in a business battle, he would never back down. He would embrace it with unwavering
confidence, undeterred even if a hundred rivals stood in his way.
However, Raphael's greatest apprehension now revolved around the possibility of organizations forcing him to
relinquish his spirit stone mines, paying no heed to their own reputation.
Should such a situation arise, he would be at a significant disadvantage, given the scarcity of high-level Stella
Warriors among his subordinates.
His bodyguards would have difficulty protecting him, let alone protecting the spirit stone mines.
“You know I'm not interested in earning money. I'll consider your offer.”
Hearing that, Raphael panicked instantly.
“Donald, this money-making opportunity is fleeting. Time stops for no one! The longer you hesitate, the more
money we'll miss out on. I've already done the calculations in advance. If you agree to collaborate with us now, I'll
promptly get our team to begin mining the spirit stones. By mining at all three spirit stone mines at the same time, I
conservatively estimate a daily output of around three tons. Three tons of spirit stones are worth as much as three
hundred tons of gold!”
Jennifer was surprised to learn that one ton of spirit stones was worth one hundred tons of gold.
“Are spirit stones that valuable?” Jennifer blinked. “How did you get the permit? I'd like to get one, too.”
Raphael was taken aback by her question.
He chuckled bitterly and said, “Jennifer, it isn't easy to get the spirit stone mining permit. Of course, if Donald is
willing to collaborate with me, I'll do my very best to get you one!”
As Raphael sounded confident, Jennifer turned to look at Donald.

do? Tell me more about it.”
Raphael cast a glance at Donald, feeling uncertain about how to convey his plan. He couldn't outright express his
intention to have Donald station Horizon Group at the mines, as he dreaded the possibility of someone trying to
seize his valuable mines.
“Jennifer, actually I'd like him to take on the role of safety consultant for my spirit stone mines. He has a knack for
this, and if he's willing to oversee security, I'm more than willing to offer him half of the annual earnings from the
spirit stone mines.”
Jennifer's eyes lit up when she heard that.
With a forceful slam on the table, she asserted, “Darling, no more hesitation. I'll take this task on your behalf. You
two should collaborate and make money to buy us a big mansion.”
Donald was torn between amusement and exasperation.
Isn't our mansion big enough?
Raphael couldn't be bothered. Jennifer had agreed, so it meant that Donald had agreed, too.
He raised his glass and laughed heartily. “How assertive of you, Jennifer. Come, let's drink to celebrate!”
