Rejection and New Proposal

Today, a new vein had been found in Boom Town, and a preliminary investigation report had come out.

The forecast was that every ton of ore would produce eleven grams of gold, but that wasn't the main point.

The main point was that according to the report, this new vein could yield a profit of six hundred million to a billion dollars.

That meant that this mother lode was worth more than that.

Mining gold was very costly, but the costs involved in this new vein were relatively low, and could be further reduced because of the presence of other minerals.

Given his 25% share in the mining company, Luke could reap a dividend of 150 to 250 million dollars.

Before he left the house earlier, Luke had told Selina that she might become a millionaire.

Luke and Jenny didn't talk for very long.

Jenny would take the company car to Boom Town and make sure that the mining company was compliant. Luke didn't have to do anything.
