Chapter 80 Spread the News

Actually, Sue didn't spend that much money to buy the Trade Center. But, the Trade Center took five years to build, with a total investment of over 500 billion dollars. Now that someone has bought it, the price is naturally higher than the total investment.

Even Kelly thought that without 1000 billion dollars, it would be impossible to acquire the Trade Center.

Chloe was completely stunned by this number.

She was just an ordinary citizen, had never seen much of the world, and had never seen such a large amount of money. This 1000 billion dollars was an unimaginable figure for her.

What did 1000 billion dollars mean?

This wasn't virtual property.

Take the Lewis family for example. Although their assets are in the billions of dollars, this was the company's value, calculated by adding up various industries. If it were cash, a family like the Lewis family having 100 million dollars in cash would be considered very good.

However, the Legion Group's market value was in the hundreds of billions of dollars, which was virtual property.

If the Legion Group encountered problems, such as a broken capital chain and could not operate normally, it would lead to a decline in market value.

This hundreds of billions of dollars could turn into ten billion dollars , or even a billion dollars , or even become worthless. The company could even heavily in debt.

A group of big shots gathered together, discussing the matter of moving into the Trade Center.

Chloe didn't understand much of this, so she just listened carefully, treating it as a learning experience.

Meanwhile, Larry sat alone in a rest area. Because he was dressed plainly and had a low status, no one came to greet him.

He was happy to be left alone.

After having lunch at the Sunset City Hotel, Larry was also bored.

Chloe, however, kept following Kelly, asking various business-related questions.

Larry had nothing to do, and just then, Frank called, saying he had found information on Lord Davis and Nine-Fingered.

He greeted Chloe, "Chloe, it's too stuffy here, I'm going out for a walk."

Chloe nodded.

Kelly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll make sure Chloe gets back safely tonight. I'll protect her."

With Kelly around, Larry felt much more at ease.

He left the Sunset City Hotel, rode his electric bike, and headed towards Mortal Clinic.

He soon arrived at there.

Mortal Clinic was just Frank's residence. Although it was a clinic, it was mostly not in operation.

The door was ajar.

Larry pushed the door open and walked in.

Frank and Sue were chatting. When Larry walked in, they immediately stood up.

Frank picked up a cigarette from the table and handed it over.

Larry remembered that Chloe had asked him to quit smoking. He wanted to refuse, but instinctively took the cigarette from Frank.

"What's the situation?" Larry sat down, smoking, the smoke filling his throat, a feeling that was incredibly comforting.

Frank immediately said, "Lord Davis's real name is Peter Davis. Around 1980, Sunset City was still very chaotic. He came to Sunset City alone and rose from a small-time thug to a big shot. After years of crackdowns, he has become very low-key, but his underground forces are still strong. He opened a security company with over ten thousand security guards, more than three thousand of whom were with him from the beginning."

Frank took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "Even though it's peaceful now, Peter is still involved in some gray businesses like gambling and loan sharking. His influence is gradually shifting abroad because the domestic crackdown on gangs is too severe.

"This man has done a lot of things, killed many people, and has some money, with assets in the billions of dollars. But he is even more low-key than Jacob, rarely seen."

Larry listened intently. His face was somber.

In his eyes, Lord Davis was already a dead man.

He calmly asked, "What about Nine-Fingered?"

Frank said, "He is from the same era as Peter, rising around 1980. This man is even more ruthless than Peter. His real name is Mark Thompson.

"Early on, when he was still a small-time figure, he offended a big shot and had one of his fingers cut off.

"So, after he rose to power, he was called Nine-Fingered.

"Mark has many businesses under his name, mainly loan sharking."

Frank told Larry all the information he had gathered, "Moreover, the Four Great Families have now united and contacted Lord Davis Peter and found Nine-Fingered Mark."

Larry's face darkened. "In eight days, it will be the tenth anniversary of the death of my grandfather, my father, and the Bennett family. Since no one is going to kneel for ten days and commit suicide to atone, then let's kill them all to honor the Bennett family's souls."

His face was somber, exuding a cold and terrifying aura, which made Sue very uncomfortable, like a heavy stone pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe.

"Mr. Bennett, what should we do next?" Frank was already used to Larry's aura.

He knew that many people from the Four Great Families would die this time.

Larry waved his hand slightly and said, "We'll act on the day of my grandfather's memorial. By the way, spread the word that those who participated in the Bennett family's destruction ten years ago should go to the Bennett family's tomb on the memorial day to settle all grudges."

"Yes, I'll notify some gang members to spread the word." Frank nodded and immediately walked out, took out his phone, and made a call.

Sue, sitting opposite Larry, looked up at him and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Bennett, now that the Trade Center has been bought, what should we do next?"

Larry glanced at Sue. "Do I need to teach you how to build a financial and commercial center?"

Sue's heart trembled.

She was a thief and didn't understand these things.

She bit her lip lightly, hesitating to speak.

Larry seemed to see what she was thinking and said calmly, "You are the behind-the-scenes boss, you don't need to come forward personally. If you don't understand, then hire someone. These days, there's no shortage of talented people."

Sue didn't expect Larry to know what she was thinking.

She immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll follow up as soon as possible."

That afternoon, Larry didn't leave and stayed at Mortal Clinic.

Meanwhile, a message spread in Sunset City.

"Have you heard? The fire that destroyed the Bennett family ten years ago was intentional."

"I heard that. Rumor has it that the Four Great Families led it, and there were many big shots involved, like Lord Davis, Nine-Fingered, and Black Wind Jacob."

"Now there's news that those who participated in the Bennett family's destruction ten years ago should go to the Bennett family's tomb in eight days, on August 15th, to settle the grudges from ten years ago."

"Kevin from the Hall family is dead, Frederick is dead, the heads of the other three families are dead. Rumor has it... it was the person who escaped the Bennett family fire ten years ago who came back to kill them."

"Who is this person? Wasn't he executed by Free King?"

"I don't know either. Maybe someone is bluffing, or maybe it's not just one person who came back this time, but a team. They executed one, but there are many more in the shadows."

Frank spread the word, which caused a huge stir in Sunset City.

The news also reached the Four Great Families, as well as Lord Davis and Nine-Fingered.

In a villa in the suburbs of Sunset City, many people had gathered here, including the current heads of the Four Great Families and many big shots from the gangs.
