Chapter 169

Author: A Potato-Loving Wolf
“Grandpa, I would like to request something. As we don’t have much time left, I’m planning to start the construction tomorrow, so I would like to pick someone trustworthy to keep an eye on the construction process,” Mandy said to Senior Zimmer.

“Sure, pick anyone you like,” Senior Zimmer replied easily.

“Grandpa, I pick Harvey…” Mandy suggested hesitantly as she looked at Harvey.

Mandy was starting to think that Harvey was reliable, so she wanted to give Harvey a chance to learn what it was like working on the frontline.

Senior Zimmer frowned at Mandy’s request.

“Mandy Zimmer, do you really think you can control everything about the project? It’s not even your asset to begin with! You want to let this worthless guy supervise the construction? Who’s gonna bear the responsibility if he screws up?” Zack Zimmer shouted, jealousy clear in his tone.

“Grandpa already said that I’m in charge of the entire project. Who are you to object?” Mandy replied with a frown.

“Mandy, please don’t

    It didn’t take long before the news spread around Niumhi that the Zimmers got a fifty million dollar fund from the Yorks.“I heard they got the funds because of a woman!”“Is it the one who has a live-in husband?”“I heard the husband bought the painting “The Rocky Mountains, Lander’s Peak” for only fifteen dollars, and gave it to the CEO of York Enterprise.”“No wonder!”“Could it be that the CEO was interested in Mandy?”Outsiders started to gossip all of a sudden, but that didn’t stop the Zimmers from becoming more popular, as a lot of families came to visit in the afternoon.The Zimmer Villa was crowded, and everyone was there except for Harvey York and Mandy Zimmer.Other families had come to learn a thing or two on how they got the funding, but it was too bad that Mandy wasn’t there to share the details.At the Platinum Hotel.Harvey wanted to meet Tyson Woods, and coincidentally met Jake Surrey on the way.Jake was surprised to see Harvey there as he had come with th

    “I didn’t mean that, Brother Tyson, I meant get rid of this fool…” Jake Surrey was confused at Tyson Woods’s sudden change of attitude. He thought Tyson was offended by his language, but who could resist that much money?“Did you just call me a fool again?” Tyson bellowed as he kicked Jake to the ground.“This Surrey guy just called me a fool, I’m gonna rip him apart myself!” Tyson yelled to his subordinates as they approached Jake.“Brother Tyson, I didn’t call you a fool! I came here to give you money!”“Brother Tyson, I’ll give you more!”“Why, Brother Tyson? Why?!”“Ahhh!”Jake let out a scream as he felt intense pain in his legs. He was just a pampered rich kid; he had no idea that he would ever face something like this.Jake fainted after a few seconds.“Sir, he passed out,” Tyson said respectfully as he walked towards Harvey.“So you’re accepting jobs from anyone now, huh? I made you who you are today to help me arrange resources, not to bully others. If you still don’

    “The Brookes have a hand in both legal and illegal businesses. I heard that they run a security company which covers almost half of Niumhi’s territory,” Tyson said cryptically, then continued, “Two of our employees were beaten up the last time they went to tell them about the fund retrieval. It was a good thing our men interfered or they would be gone by now.”“Messing with the Yorks? How bold of them,” Harvey laughed, eyes gleaming in interest.“The Brookes are no big deal. I heard a rich kid from their family is close to Liam Stone, maybe that’s why they’re so cocky,” Tyson scoffed.Liam Stone was another thug in Niumhi. Both Liam’s and Tyson’s power were about the same, but they couldn’t do anything to each other.“So you mean that Liam is the backbone of the Brookes? Are you trying to tell me that you can’t handle this?” Harvey asked, narrowing his eyes.“Of course not, but we could lose a lot of men if we picked a fight with them. I wouldn’t do it without your permission,” Ty

    That afternoon, Harvey received a phone call from Mandy.“Harvey, the first transaction of funds from York Enterprise has just arrived, help me thank Miss Xavier for me,” Mandy requested, a hint of joy in her tone.“Huh?” Harvey nearly leaped out of his seat. Did Mandy know about his identity?!“Wasn’t she your classmate? I would like to treat her one day when she’s free,” Mandy continued cheerfully.“Alright, we’ll see how it goes. I heard she’s usually quite busy.” Harvey was relieved that his cover had not been blown, and carefully rejected Mandy’s offer. God knows what would happen if those two women became friends.“Oh right, I’ll be coming home late tonight. I have something to take care of first,” Harvey told Mandy as he planned to pay Liam Stone a visit that night.“Okay… but I’ll probably keep my door… unlocked…” Mandy said shyly after a moment of silence.Beep… Beep… Beep...Mandy ended the call immediately after that.Harvey was excited after hearing what Mandy had

    Meanwhile, an elderly man dressed in traditional garbs stood waiting in the underground boxing gym. He surveyed his surroundings with an unhappy gaze, not making any attempts to hide his displeasure towards the place.Anyone who watches television broadcasts on treasure authentication would easily recognize this man. He was none other than Shane Naiswell, the grand master of treasure authentication.The reason for his arrival in the city of Niumhi was to have Harvey York authenticate an extremely valuable relic.However, his appearance in the gym tonight was for the purposes of meeting up with an old friend rather than work. Rosalie Naiswell, who stood beside him all this time, wore a similarly displeased expression.From the room where they were in, they received a clear view of the boxing competition held down in the ring.Although they hailed from a respected lineage, occasions like this were no stranger to them. As a family well-known for working with antiques, there were ti

    This was the most exclusive and highly anticipated segment of the underground boxing gym. Its primary purpose was to promote interaction between the boxers and the audience, giving the audience a chance to experience boxing in the ring. If they won, they would be able to leave with cash prizes. However, such an outcome was impossible.After all, they were merely spectators. How would it be possible for them to defeat professional boxers?“I’ll go up and play for a while, then.” Harvey York chuckled and donned a face mask. With a swing of his arm, he flipped into the boxing ring.“Seems we have a very brave and mysterious challenger here with us who wants to be the first to get punched.” The referee said with a wide grin. He couldn’t hide his look of disdain. What’s the point of putting on a mysterious act when you’d just end up on the ground with your blood splattered everywhere? The last time the referee saw a man with an iron man mask participate, that very same man ended up beate

    As he observed Rosalie’s changing expressions, Liam Stone sniggered inwardly. He wasn’t dense enough to ignore the implication that Rosalie Naiswell may have a special relationship with the man who had just climbed into the ring. Thinking this, he saw hope in having her all to himself. Without anyone noticing, Liam Stone quickly texted something on his phone. Once finished, he glanced over at Rosalie Naiswell. If everything went according to plan, this beautiful woman would be his tonight.…Outside the boxing ring.Standing in the spectator wing, Tyson Woods was on pins and needles. Harvey York was simply out of his mind. Facing Liam Stone in person to make the deal was a far better option than whatever he was attempting right now. Perhaps Harvey York couldn’t understand the meaning of the word ‘death.’…In the boxing ring.Harvey York casually wrapped his fists with white bandages, his expression neutral and unperturbed.His opponent, the boxer, studied him with an amused s

    As he ended his sentence, Liam Stone was unable to hide his look of disgust. The boxer who had just got knocked out by Harvey York was in truth a reputable fighter in this gym, having once won ten consecutive matches. Though he may not be the strongest, his skills were definitely on the upper level. To actually defeat him would pose quite the challenge. “Miss Naiswell, the next one up is no normal boxer. Do you have any words for me?”Liam Stone turned to watch Rosalie Naiswell attentively.Rosalie’s face went as pale as a sheet. She clenched her teeth and replied, “Liam Stone, your subordinate has just lost a match…”“That’s right, one of my men just lost. But since I have to let you enjoy a good show, I can’t let you down.” Liam Stone grinned. “How about this? If you want to say stop, you should do it at the right time. Or else, I can’t guarantee what will happen…” He picked up his phone and made a call. “Find a better one. This man is someone our VIP friends here know, so b

    Maya was slightly stunned. However, she had always been very trusting of Harvey. She didn't say anything and quickly prepared the contract.When Durandal saw what was happening, he smiled coldly and immediately signed his name.Just as Harvey was going to sign his name, Mandy's expression turned dark and said, "Harvey, why don't we bet my hand? This is a Ninth Branch affair. It didn't have much to do with you in the first place."Harvey could sense Mandy cared about him and smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Not to mention, certain things are unavoidable. You and the Ninth Branch are simply taking hits on my behalf. Trust me, I can manage this."Mandy hesitated a little and wanted to say something, but before she could, Durandal already said coldly, "Enough with the mushy nonsense. If you can't take a wager like this, I'm more than happy to let you both lick my boots a hundred times. After that, we'll call it even!"Harvey patted Mandy's shoulder and picked up the pen to sign his

    "Your underlings are either Boxing Champions or Sword Champions. While they all sounded terrifying and their names quite stylish, and sound like they can defeat everyone that stands before them…" Harvey began coolly."Everything you did is so you can take all of the Ninth Branch's money, isn't it? If that's the case, why waste everyone's time? Let's do it decisively. We'll settle everything in one go. Of course, if you're scared, you can tell me too. I won't force you."Harvey shook his head and looked at Mandy. "This is boring, Mandy. Let's go, he's just a coward. I wonder where this spoiled brat comes from? He's scared of getting smacked by his own hand if he loses a few pennies. There's no need to waste time with people like this."When Mandy heard it, she said, "That's right. There's no need to waste time with rubbish."Durandal smiled coldly when he heard how they were mocking him. "No need for such sarcasm. I'm telling you right now, I'm not afraid of playing a game like th

    "If you're sober, bend your knee to the ladies and apologize, or I'll kill you!" Harvey snarled.The long-haired man was arrogant, but it was obvious for all that Harvey was even more so. All the spectators were shocked. It was the first time they saw someone acting so arrogant.The long-haired man finally realized what had happened; he held his face and yelled, "You idiot! How dare you touch me?"Harvey gave him another slap. "So what if I do? Can't I afford to? Do you want me to hit you a dozen times?"The long-haired young man didn't expect Harvey to make a move despite the current circumstances, and was completely stunned. He held his completely swollen face and screamed, "How dare you touch me! Kill him! I want him ground to dust!"Clang!Just as the men and women wanted to stand and attack Harvey, Durandal put down the teacup in his hand with a clang. He waved his right hand and said, "All of you… Are you blind? Can't you see that this is Ms. Mandy Zimmer, the leader of t

    "150 million isn't enough?""1.5 billion?"Everyone gasped the moment they heard what Harvey had to say. At the same time, many people turned and looked at him at the same time. Aside from shock and disbelief, they looked like they were looking at a fool.Everyone could see that Durandal had already completely decimated this underground fighting pit. The Ninth Branch had lost hundreds of millions of dollars by now. No matter how sharp Maya's tongue was, it couldn't hide the fact that they had lost a lot of money.So when Harvey took the initiative and said something like that, many simply thought it was for their pride. Everyone knew that at this time, one should surrender and not scream in defiance. The men and women around Durandal all stared at Harvey. They didn't feel scared or excited, simply scornful.Mandy wanted to say something, but after hearing Harvey, she decided to keep silent and let him take control of everything. She believed that he could help her."Madam! Sir

    Maya looked horrified. She was the one organizing things for the Ninth Branch. This fighter was already the most powerful the Ninth Branch had, but she didn't expect him to act like a complete newbie.As for Durandal, he picked up his teacup and sipped it. His phone screen was showing a game. It was obvious the fight in front of him had already been decided…and he was bored. A mobile game was even a better time killer than this.In some way, this was truly a way of showing how high and mighty he was.Meanwhile, a woman wearing a coat next to Durandal looked at the fight with scorn. It was obvious that the fight in front of her wasn't that interesting.After exchanging blows, the fighter from the Ninth Branch had completely lost his advantage. The Boxing Champion spun and broke his right arm in one strike.Crack!Before he could even scream, the Boxing King swooped right in front of him, then grabbed his head before punching him with all his might.Pfft…Blood immediately came o

    "It was clear that this so-called champion had won countless matches. Otherwise, the spectators wouldn't be so excited when they saw him. Some of the women roared and screamed as if they were on cloud nine. The air was full of passion and excitement, as if this champion could really defeat everyone under the sun.Mandy frowned as she looked at the scene, and said slowly, "That's the elite fighter Durandal brought here. From the way he fought, he was indeed someone who had been fighting in underground fighting rings like ours for a long time. He calls himself the Boxing Champion, and has already won five bouts today. He has won at least 75 million dollars from us.""I see… He's a money printer…" Harvey looked at him and nodded. "From the surface, he's a peak King of Arms. If he let himself go, I believe he might be able to fight against those close to True Warrior."Mandy nodded before continuing, "He's just one of the elites Durandal brought with him. Other than him, there's the K

    The VIP seats opposite Maya had a group of men and women chatting loudly in plain clothing. All of them looked arrogant, and the way they looked down on others seemed second nature to them. A bald man was in the center of it all. He was wearing a simple white jacket and a pair of outdated cloth shoes. When he sat there, he looked like he was shifting between a state of awareness or sleep."This is the man leading the challengers. All of them called him Mr. Parker." Mandy's eyes immediately fell on this bald man as she explained. It was obvious that while she wasn't here all the time, she knew a lot about the underground boxing gym.Harvey then asked calmly, "He's so easily identifiable. You really can't find anything about him at all?""Nothing. But to him, money is nothing but a number," Mandy sighed. "He didn't look anything unique, but from the limited edition Richard Mille watch he's wearing? That watch is called a 'Billionaire's Watch'. Just that alone is proof enough of how

    "Even if they're really from another world, they wouldn't be anyone ordinary. They're dressed simply, but we could tell they're no ordinary people. They looked at all the other guests like they were ants, as if they stood on top of the world. Speaking of which, the one who led them was someone with the last name Parker…"At this point, Mandy found it difficult to continue the conversation. Not only did she lose so much money, but she wasn't even sure who she lost to. It was a total humiliation!"Parker… Not ordinary people… Looking down on everyone…" Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Someone from Parkerville?"A few days ago, Harvey had just humiliated Clarion. In the days that followed, Clarion seemed to have completely disappeared. It didn't fit his modus operandi. Harvey started to suspect that the Parkers of Parkerville were behind this.Most importantly, they could anger him through Mandy. It seemed not everyone from Parkerville was brainless. At the very least, they were quite goo

    Mandy kept mum.Harvey sighed. "Fine. Let's not talk about closing the underground boxing ring. Explain to me what has been going on lately. Just how much have you lost?"Mandy took a deep breath to calm herself down and sat opposite Harvey. She picked up her coffee and finished it in one gulp before saying with a sigh, "Because of what happened with the real estate earlier, the Ninth Branch can't simply open up new markets in a short time. We're bleeding money every day. "I realized the Ninth Branch can be supported by just the underground boxing ring. Unfortunately, even our profit from the ring is falling. One of our shareholders gave us the idea to allow guests to bring their own fighters rather than simply betting on fighters. That way, it becomes a competition between the host and the guest."A few days ago, a group of guests came with eight elites and wanted to bet with the underground boxing ring. They said they'll be betting 7 million dollars a match. I didn't want to agr
