Chapter 407

by karlmaks — When people reach the middle class, most will ponder this question— What, exactly, is wealth? Is it money, or is it the commodities squeezed out of human resources through layers of labor exploitation? Everyone will have a different opinion on this question, but everyone has a common understanding, which is that wealth is not born out of thin air; it requires people. As for how wealth actually works, most people only have a vague idea and are not very clear. At this moment, Lance's…

Lance gave him respect, and Arthur f Lance knew how to deal with "small characters" like Arthur; you just had to give them a little respect. Lance gave him respect, and Arthur felt respected, so the matter was naturally agreed upon. He would give Jack a time, and they would sit down and talk together. Some things could then be settled.

If these two hadn't follow Outside the casino, Sarif looked at Alberto and Francisco walking out of the room, a smile appearing on his face. If these two hadn't followed him out and had stayed inside, then he would have had to consider leaving Golden Port. He could fight the Cassia family, but he couldn't fight anyone else. The Kodak family might not be that formidable in his eyes,…

Chapter 404

by karlmaks — In this world, when you are in dire straits and need help, the number of people willing to lend a hand is ultimately a very small minority. On the contrary, there are more people who will step on you a couple of times when you are suffering misfortune. It is unknown who leaked the news that Jinda Bank was currently not operating smoothly, but it was highly likely someone from another bank. Banks, too, are for-profit entities. If Mr. Jobav's Jinda Bank was indeed facing financial difficulties,…

Chapter 403

by karlmaks — Mr. Jobav doesn't just have a big house; his bank is also a big house, and it even has a dedicated vault, which Lance actually quite wants. "You... cough, speaking of Jobav, what happened to him?" Lance said casually, "He's probably going bankrupt. He's selling his previous things to the banks, but the banks won't give him any inflated prices." "So perhaps we have a chance to get some things from him." Morris was a bit amazed and emotional when he heard this news. "For people who have lived…

Chapter 402

by karlmaks — Mr. Jobav had once ridiculed those gamblers. He ridiculed them for not knowing how to restrain their desires, for continuing to throw their chips onto the gambling table even when they knew they would lose in the end. It wasn't until they found they could no longer pull out a single chip that they realized in a daze that they had lost everything they once possessed. In fact, he was the same now. He had also become a gambler, but unlike those low-level gamblers who revolved around money…

Chapter 401

by karlmaks — Lance looked at Francisco. The young man glanced back at Alberto, who nodded. He then said, "Uncle Lance's decision is my decision, Grand-uncle Vittorio." Vittorio's gaze shifted between the three of them, the expression between his brows changing subtly before finally turning into a smile. "Good, then it's up to you, Cisco." "We've had many people injured, and even killed, in the war with the Cassia family. The people are full of hatred for them." "Since you advocate for revenge, I hope we can…

by karlmaks — The atmosphere in the room was a bit stiff. Francisco's maternal family was not a significant source of support; Paul's wife was just an ordinary Summuri woman. She had no prominent background and naturally couldn't offer her son any help in the struggle for power. The only one who could help him was Alberto. Now, there was one more: Lance. "You are my Uncle Lance!" A sixteen-year-old youth's thinking ability had actually already reached an adult level. It was just that they hadn't…

Chapter 399

by karlmaks — A little after one in the afternoon, Alberto drove over personally to pick up Lance. The two embraced after meeting. "You look... much more composed." The clothes Alberto used to wear leaned more towards a flamboyant, trendy style. You could see colorful pocket squares in his breast pocket. You could also see him wearing a tie with multi-colored polka dots, paired with a not-so-serious tie clip. He wasn't young, in his thirties, but he still lacked the steadiness of a young man. This was…

Lance hung up the phone, his gaze sweeping over the people in the room before finally landing on Lawn. Hiram had gone to bed. His cold hadn't completely cleared up, and an early rest would greatly help him recover his strength. Lawn also noticed Lance's gaze. He stood up from the sofa, "Is there something you need me…
