by karlmaks — In the morning, just as Ryder (the old tailor's son-in-law, the garment factory's manager) arrived at his office and had just hung up his hat and sat down, someone knocked on the door outside. The garment factory's business was good now. On one hand, Lance's side needed a large number of new work clothes. These work clothes would be given to the garment factory at a normal price, considered as an independent business. If the Lance Family wanted to go further, they couldn't have all their…

by karlmaks — The summer mornings dawned earlier. By a little after six, the sky was already completely light, but ninety percent of the city was still asleep. Whether it was the working class at the bottom or the wealthy in the Bay Area, they all needed longer sleep to compensate for their physical losses. The physical loss of the rich was because they needed to battle with beautiful girls or handsome boys late into the night, while for the manual laborers, it was simply because they were exhausted from a full…

Chapter 409

by karlmaks — It's often like this in life: we are always struggling in dissatisfaction, searching for direction after getting lost. It isn't until the moment we see the light again that we realize the happiness we wanted, we actually possessed it a long, long time ago. It's just that in the process of struggling and getting lost, we lost that happiness. But some things always require a choice—a choice of self, a choice of human nature. Perhaps many years later, they will still recall the words they…

by karlmaks — The scantily clad girl gathered the playing cards on the table with her slender fingers. Around the gambling table sat several gentlemen who looked either rich or noble. Beside them, there were also various girls and women keeping them company. These women were all very outstanding. They might have been the dream lovers of many, the goals they pursued.

Chapter 505

by karlmaks — Lance had been arrested. The news spread quickly, reaching almost the entire upper crust of Golden Port society in a very short time. At the same time, they also learned about the attack on the Kodak Club. It was said that millions in gambling funds had been stolen by the robbers. For a moment, the telephone lines in Golden Port hit a small peak as many people became concerned with one question—was there a chance to pry this money out of Lance's mouth? After all, it was several million,…

by karlmaks — The private casino operators from two districts sat in Lance's office. The room was quiet at the moment; they were all carefully mulling it over. Thirty percent. This was a number they were a little unsure how to express their feelings about. If you were to say... it was too much, it was actually much less than the minimum 50% cut proposed by the Kodak Family. But to say they were happy, that wasn't necessarily true either. After all, having to give away real money to someone else would make…

You might have to make a few more trips in the next few days. Things will be over soon." "Okay, just let me know when." "I'm off to handle other things." The major cleanup was nearing its end, but it wasn't completely finished. He still had a lot of work to do. He was actually very curious, but he also knew to only ask questions he…

Chapter 601

by karlmaks — "Damn it!" At a little after nine in the morning, Director Dale, sitting behind his desk, couldn't help but curse as he picked up the newspaper. The headline of today's Golden Port Today was "The Grand Construction of the Naval Base," accompanied by a photo that was likely taken from a slightly higher place with a bird's-eye view. The entire wilderness was densely packed with people, as numerous as an overturned anthill. Everywhere, you could see those refugees clearing away everything above…
