Chapter 2476 They’re a Good Match
The Yeagers wanted a project that Eric had and expressed it in any way they could.
In the end, they had a few rounds of drinks.
At one point, Eric suddenly laughed good-naturedly and looked at Larry, who was apprehensive.
Eric said in a cold voice, "Since your company has already withdrawn from the project, it’s impossible for you to rejoin the project.If you really want it, I can give you another opportunity.Some time ago, my project in a neighboring city had already finished laying the foundation.But I encountered some difficulties with that project, so I don’t plan to continue it.Mr.Yeager, if you’re interested, you can take it."
Larry was slightly taken aback.He drank a lot of wine all night, so his face was flushed from the alcohol.
On the contrary, Eric only sipped on his drink and did not drink much.Thus, he did not look drunk at all.
Cindy was distressed when she saw her father like this.
However, she did not dare to say a word.She also drank a lot, so her mind was muddled.
That was why she decided to keep her mouth shut.
Larry’s eyes froze slightly.
"Really?" He looked delighted.
Although the project in the neighboring city was not as good as the one he cooperated with Ferguson Corporation before, it was still a project that could bring steady profit.
He would not lose money in this project, and the preliminary work was completed.
If he took over now, it would definitely go very smoothly.
However, Larry was concerned about one thing.
Cindy was the one who sent someone to sabotage Eric that day in the neighboring city during the project’s foundation laying.
If Eric found out, the Yeagers would definitely have to pay a hefty price.
At this moment, Larry was already busy cleaning up the mess.He did not know if Eric was trying to test them.
Larry struggled for a while, but he did not dare to show it on his face.He just looked surprised.
On the contrary, Cindy was in shock.
She looked at Eric, and then at her father.She hesitated to speak.
However, to dispel Eric’s suspicion, Larry immediately agreed.
"If that’s the case, it would be great! Thanks for your kindness, Mr.Ferguson."
At least, the project in the neighboring city could solve their immediate needs.
Maybe it was all just a coincidence, and Eric did not know anything.
Thinking of this, Larry became more confident when he saw Eric’s expressionless face.
Eric smiled and immediately made a phone call, asking the driver to bring up the contract.It turned out that Eric was ready for this.
Larry felt a little strange in his heart, but he could not pinpoint what was wrong.
When the driver delivered the contract, Eric placed it in front of Larry.
"Mr.Yeager, take a closer look.If there are no problems, you can sign the project, and the project in the neighboring city will belong to you.Ferguson Corporation won't interfere in it anymore."
Larry was a little shocked.
"Ferguson Corporation is going to withdraw from this project?" Eric rubbed his eyebrows.
He seemed a bit drunk as he replied slowly.
"I had an unpleasant experience there, so I don’t want that project anymore and plan to sell it.If you want it, you can take it.If you don't want it, there are many others waiting for it tomorrow morning.This price is the lowest, so there’s no room for negotiations."
His voice was deep and cold.He glanced sideways inadvertently.
When he looked back, his eyes were solemn.
At the same time, he was putting a lot of pressure on Larry.
Ferguson Corporation’s withdrawal meant that no one else would share the risk However, it also meant that no one else would get a cut of the pie.
Most people would be tempted in the face of such huge profits.
However, $900 million was not a small sum.
At present, Larry could barely make the $900 million with all the assets of Yeager Corporation as well as a mortgage loan from the bank.
The risk was too great.
If it was not for what Cindy did to Eric, Larry would not have hesitated for so long.
However, because of that incident, Larry was worried whether this was a trap set by Eric.
Eric noticed Larry’s dilemma and curled his lips in amusement.He set a trap for the Yeagers and was confident enough that they would jump into it willingly.
It was a tailor-made trap, so why would the Yeagers reject it? Eric sat there quietly and seemed patient.
On the side, he could still hear annoying laughter and chatter.
The colorful neon lights lit up the streets outside.
Eric suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart.
It turned out that there were many things that he could not have.He did not care for the money and profits he had, but he kept working for it anyway.
Cindy looked at the document with a dazed and hesitant expression.It was indeed an enticing project, but the risks were also great.
This might be the only one in a while.
Cindy looked at Larry.
The two of them drank a lot, but they both knew the weight of this contract clearly.
"Mr.Ferguson, can you wait until tomorrow morning? We'll sign the contract and deliver it to Ferguson Corporation in person."
Cindy bit her lower lip with a hint of hope.
Eric sneered.His eyes were cold and indifferent.
"Mr.Yeager, it seems that you still don’t trust me.Forget it then.I just wanted you to pick this up because I felt sorry for kicking you out of the project last time.If you can't take it, then I’ll give it to someone else.Keith Ludwig has asked several times about this project, so I won’t have to wait until tomorrow.He can come now."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and found Keith’s number.
Just as Eric was about to make the call, Larry stopped him immediately.
"Wait a minute..." Eric raised his eyes.
Larry twitched the corners of his mouth.
He looked tangled.
"We'll sign it."

Larry knew that there was no other way.
They lost the project they cooperated with Eric in the early stage, so the Yeagers already lost a lot of human, material, and financial resources because of it.
Naturally, they wanted to take advantage of Ferguson Corporation's power to regain their strength.
However, Eric clearly did not want to give them the chance to lean on him.
If they rejected the project in the neighboring city, their future development in Atlanta would only be more difficult.
The pie was only so big.
Getting Eric’s leftovers was more than enough for them to survive.
This was a fact.
Cindy frowned.She wanted to say something, but Larry stopped her with his warning gaze.
Eric smiled and watched as Larry signed his name.
Then, Larry solemnly handed the contract over to Eric.
"Mr.Ferguson, I trust you." Eric raised his eyebrows.
"Mr.Yeager, the project in the neighboring city is yours.As soon as I receive your money tomorrow morning, bean my people will withdraw from the project.
You can get your people to get ready tonight.
Cindy frowned.
"So fast?"
Eric replied, "Of course, so as not to drag this on.We bought this project at $900 million in the early stage, and I’m selling it to you at the same price now.I didn’t make any money from this, so I certainly won't put in any more manpower and resources into this project."
