"Damn, who''s this dude? Why is he talking so big, throwing around five million like it''s nothing?"
"He''s bluffing, isn''t he?"
"If you''re going to brag, at least n out something better."
"Hey, he''s Lethan Warbane, the chairman of Rivend''srgest clothing factory. He''s worth at least 100
million!"
Hearing that, Sunny red at the employees. At the same time, he couldn''t help but admire Carlisle.
Had Carlisle''s reputation grown to the point that Lethan himself came to visit?
Lethan walked over to Carlisle and looked at the shabby, cigarette-burnt second-hand couch. He hesitated to sit down.
Carlisle smilingly asked, "Shall we move to a different ce to talk?"
As Lethan came from a wealthy family and had been pampered since childhood, he naturally couldn''t stand the environment here.
Carlisle hadn''t thought this through. He should have arranged to meet at a cafe.
"Did you pick this couch up from a garbage dump?" Lethan finally sat down, albeit reluctantly.
If Carlisle, now a multi-millionaire, could sit on it, why couldn''t he?
Carlisle smiled and exined, "We didn''t have much money when we started, so having a couch to sit on was already good enough for us."
Soon, Sunny came over with two cups of coffee for them.
Lethan blinked at Carlisle. "Have you considered what I said earlier?"
He was convinced that Carlisle''s business would definitely make money. Starting a game developmentpany with five million wouldn''t be a bad idea.
"Starting a small studio is just a small-scale operation. It can make some money, but if you want to make big money, forget it. If you really want to invest, I don''t mind!" Carlisle grinned.
"I won''t invest, then. I''ll stick with you and explore other business opportunities. Tell me about the thing you mentioned on the phone earlier!"
Lethan took out a box of high-end cigarettes from his pocket and lit a stick. "You''re still young, so I won''t offer you a smoke."
"Build a greenhouse and get into aquaculture!" Carlisle uttered just seven words.
Lethan''s hand that held the lighter froze for a moment. He didn''t light it and left the lighter and the cigarette on the table.

With a puzzled expression, he asked, "The aquaculture market is already saturated. Isn''t getting into aquaculture a dead end? Besides, Rivend has a unique climate. We don''t need greenhouses at all."
"What if we have heavy snow this winter?" Carlisle stared at Lethan with a sly smile.
Lethan was left speechless.
What if? How could there be so many "what-ifs"?
The probability of it being one in ten thousand could bepletely ignored.
Besides, even if it snowed heavily, it was unlikely to pierce through the bottom of theke, right?
The water had different temperatures in different seasons.
In summer, the temperature at the bottom of the water was lower than the surface temperature, allowing fish to move at the bottom.
By winter, the temperature at the bottom of the water was higher than the surface temperature. Even if theke froze over, fish could still live at the bottom as long as it wasn''t frozen through.
The aquatic ecosystem wouldn''t be greatly affected.
Carlisle could tell that Lethan was speechless. It was as if he had just pulled Lethan over for a joke.
Carlisle blew gently on his coffee and took a sip once it had cooled a bit.
"Sometimes, I really wonder if you''re an adult who came back to your youthful days. I''ve lived for over 30 years and have never seen a university student as mature as you!" Lethan eximed.

Taking another sip of his coffee, Carlisle put the cup down and pretended to be mysterious as he asked, Do you know what geomancy is?"
