Rowan’s face changed. Then he heard the sound of bullets chambered.A voice screamed in Rowan’s head, ‘Oh no, they’re resorting to violence now!‘They’re trying to deal using coercion!’As soon as he had this thought, Rowan felt a huge force pulling him outward.Julian, who had long sensed something was wrong, kicked open the door and pulled Rowan out.Brock kicked down the attendant who was about to take action and ran out with the two of them.He could hear Amir’s angry shouts behind him."Stop them! Damn it, stop them!"Julian and Brock were not the only ones who came with Rowan. They also brought many guards recruited from the previous oil fields. So, most of them were mercenaries and had strong combat capabilities.Because of their relationship with the Elvis family and with the help of the Elvis family’s military, they had gun licenses and could keep their guns and weapons.Soon after, their guards started fighting with the Gruel guards.Just like what Julian and Brock

When they arrived at Gruel, Julian, and Brock sensed something was not right. So, they immediately notified Jasper that they needed more reinforcements.In addition to their bodyguards who were dispatched urgently, some of these responders were members of the Elvis family.After Warwick heard Jasper’s plan, he became particularly concerned about Jasper’s subsequent plans.To protect the safety of Jasper and others, he had been secretly deploying his family’s bodyguards to protect them nearby. He even went to his uncle in the military and asked him to send some soldiers to assist him when necessary.Naturally, Julian and Brock had their contact.When Brock saw the reinforcements, he relaxed. He patted Julian on the shoulder and laughed loudly, “You’re so smart! You sensed that something was not right soon after we entered. I would have been waiting there stupidly if you hadn’t given me a nudge.”“Brock, please stop flattering me. I knew you could sense something was up without me

At that moment, the leader said, “Mr. Rowan, we encountered several Kurt family members behaving sneakily when we came to pick you up. So, we arrested them.“Also…”When the team leader said this, his expression was a little strange.“They want to see you.”Rowan was stunned.Originally, he thought these people were colluding with Amir.According to the information he had obtained before and Amir’s performance just now, he assumed that Murire’s Asa and Gruel’s Amir were on the same page.However, upon hearing what the leader said, it seemed there was something more behind this.“What else did they say?”The convoy's leader said honestly, “After they heard we were with you, they said that Amir had set a trap for you, so you shouldn’t go there. They are the ones who really want to trade.“They seem…” The convoy leader paused as if he was considering his words. “They seem to be afraid of any setbacks in the deal with you.”When Rowan heard this, a smile appeared on his lips.H

Amir also became anxious after that.“But they’ve left. Where can I find them? They’re foreigners, so the addresses they left with are usually empty. Their offices are all abroad, so how do I find them?”“Y-You… You’re such a disappointment!”Kimbra was so angry that he was stuttering and wanted to vomit blood.Since the Elvis family began to force him to abdicate, he had to turn his attention back to the processing factory he had ignored.Preparing the processing plant was actually the idea of the previous patriarch, Baltimore.When Baltimore proposed that, many in the family raised objections. To them, the focus was, of course, oil.As long as there was oil, they could drown themselves in sex and pleasure. Even if they had extra money, they should use it to invest in some high-return projects abroad to make money.They could leave projects such as the processing link to big families like the Elvis family, who had sufficient production capacity, sufficient technology, and exte

If it had not been for that, Kimbra would have never imagined that the day would come when he would face financial shortages after attaining his long-awaited position as patriarch.The Kurt family owned nearly half of Qari’s oil fields, and Qari’s oil field reserves ranked fifth in the world.This was a lot of money, no matter from which perspective.However, as Kimbra became the patriarch, he suddenly discovered that they did not have much liquidity due to excessive investments in the past, coupled with the prospect of the United States’ upcoming military garrison.A considerable part of this working capital was used for the family's daily operations, such as oil exploration and collection.After all, oil was the foundation of the Kurt family, and once these oil wells were started, they could not be stopped. Otherwise, all previous efforts would be wasted.So, even with the Elvis family now intensively suppressing them, the Kurt family was in danger of losing the oil field they

After he said that, Kimbra complained, “The Elvis family went too far this time. I heard that they seemed to have found new foreign aid. If I can’t solve the production capacity problem, they will file a second impeachment at the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce.“Also, that b*stard Abe was so quick at collecting money, but now, he’s refusing when I asked him to help persuade other processing organizations.“Hmph, anti-corruption investigation? Everyone knows that he has his cronies in the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce! Maybe he himself arranged the people who investigated him!”After saying that, Kimbra complained about other things again. He only hung up after a very long while.Now, Kimbra was panicking and at a loss.According to Kimbra’s previous plan, the external fundraising plan should have been done. After all, everyone knew the importance of these processing plants to the Kurt family. Therefore, it would be a good chance to raise prices at the last minute.They could take

It turned out that besides being Kimbra’s man, Amir was also a spy that Sahar planted.The incidents were a farce that he directed to sabotage Kimbra’s plan to rescue himself.He was so arrogant and domineering to Rowan because he did not plan to sell the stocks at all.The so-called trading demand was actually a bait to pre-emptively cut off all external forces that might provide financial support to Kimbra. The internal financial pressure the Kurt family faced was also just a trap set by Sahar and the others.The Kurt family was indeed shot on liquidity due to the overall economic situation and changes in the external environment. However, it was far from the critical state they showed Kimbra.Of course, only Amir and a few other people working for Sahar knew the truth.Most people had been kept in the dark, including the general managers of some processing companies.Like Kimbra, they genuinely thought the family did not have enough cash flow.As everyone knew, Sahar and t

Faced with Rowan’s probing, Asa just smiled and said, “Everyone will run into some problems at some point, and when that happens, it is always nice to have a place to talk.“There are too many eyes on our factories. Moreover, we need working capital, so we released news about selling stocks. Yet, many people don’t want us to get the money.“Mr. Jefferson, I don’t want something to happen to you in our factory before we even have the chance to talk.“So, instead of meeting up in a crowded factory, it was better to choose a place no one knows so we can all be at ease.”After hearing this, Rowan’s eyes lit up.He knew the hidden meaning in Asa’s words.Asa knew someone was preventing the factory from solving its financial problems by selling stocks. At the same time, these people were lurking inside the factory, and they were pretty powerful.Even if Asa had absolute control over the factory, there was no guarantee that accidents would not happen.With this in mind, he now underst
