“Mr. Lidell, we’ve already sent your friend to the hospital. He’s rather weak and it’ll take him some time to recover completely. How should we deal with the rest?” Cade asked.“Mr. Nelson, I was hoping you would catch everyone involved in this. I do not want to see people of power using their authority to harm ordinary people.”“Yes, of course, Mr. Lidell! I’ll straighten out the whole of South River Province once I return! I promise this won’t happen again.”“Thank you, Mr. Nelson. Are you free right now? Perhaps we could talk over a meal?” David invited.David was not an impudent man, and Cade was indeed treating him with courtesy despite being a provincial minister and his elder.“I would love to!” Cade replied.As if he would reject the opportunity to get to know David better.Not when he came all the way here just to leave a good impression on David.“You first, Mr. Nelson!”“No, you, Mr. Lidell!”They then left together.Behind them, the SCC members watched as David a
David brought everyone to Frangipani Restaurant and booked the entire place while also paying the bill for his high school reunion meal.David, Celia, and Colby then sat with Cade and the other core officials in South River Province at another table.Meanwhile, the members of the SCC split to sit across three tables.As far as they were concerned, this trip to Shu City would have been worth it if they could just see David and leave an impression on him.Seeing Mr. Nelson was beyond their expectations.These officials were the most authoritative people in South River Province.As expected of the man whose mere text had garnered the replies of two SCC bosses and the courtesy of South River Province’s cabinet minister. They could only imagine how powerful David was.Not even all three SCC bosses could receive such treatment from Mr. Nelson, not when Cade was their elder.Honestly, not even their fathers, people of a status lower than the three SCC bosses, would treat an ordinary y
“Dave, you’re too polite. We hope you can help us in the future.”“Yeah, Mr. Lidell, you have such a big business. Don’t say you don’t know your poor classmates if we look for you in the future.”“Mr. Lidell, do you still need people to work for your company? Many of us were not admitted to college after graduating from high school and have yet to find suitable jobs.”“Don’t worry, guys. If you want to find a job, you can contact me in a few days. If you have any good projects that need my investment, you can also contact me. I, David Lidell, will not turn you down.”“If that’s the case, we would like to thank you, Mr. Lidell. Let's all give Mr. Lidell a toast!”“Alright, cheers!”Everyone stood up and said loudly together.David also drank from the glass in his hand.Although taking a little alcohol would not affect him at all, since he had to drive later, he still figured it would be better not to drink too much.He knew that he should not drink and drive, and if he did drin
The meal took them more than 2 hours.David asked the others to go back first because he could handle the rest himself.Thus, Cade also returned to River City.David then drove to the hospital to pick up King Kong.The conclusion of this matter depended on King Kong's decision.At the hospital, David located King Kong's ward.After an afternoon of treatment, King Kong had recovered a lot, but he still had many internal injuries and they all needed time to slowly heal.King Kong was still a little confused in his bed.When he was brought out, he thought he was going to be killed.However, in the end, he was taken to the hospital.He still had not figured out what was going on.He only realized that David must be the one who saved him when he saw David and the others coming in. Otherwise, he could not think of anyone else who would save him.“Dave, Rice Cake!” King Kong called out excitedly.“King Kong, how are you feeling?” David asked.“King Kong, You’re finally out! Haha
Eden's group of six raised their heads and looked at David and the others.All six shook their heads, indicating that they did not know David.“Sir, we don't seem to know each other, and I don’t know how we’ve offended you, but I'm here to apologize to you,” Eden said.“Really? Ask your sons! They have done so many bad things that they may not remember for a while, but give them some time to think about it,” David said.“You scoundrel! What the hell did you do? Hurry up and apologize to him!” Eden slapped Gilbert on the head and said loudly.“I'm sorry, Sir! I am now apologizing to you for offending you in some way. Please be the bigger person and spare us,” Gilbert said while kowtowing.Vere and Jed also quickly kowtowed to apologize.“It's no use apologizing to me. King Kong, I'll leave this to you. You can do whatever you want to them and I’ll back you up. Even if you kill them now, I will also make sure you’ll be fine.”King Kong stepped forward with Colby's help.“Do you
After David and Celia returned to River City, they flew directly to Capital City.Since Old Master Stefani asked him to arrive at Capital City within three days, there should be something very important going on.After arriving in Capital City and sending Celia home, David called Mason back and told him that he had arrived in Capital City.With that, Mason sent someone over to pick David up.They met in the same big courtyard from last time.David pushed the door open and found Mason waiting for him on the chair in the courtyard with his eyes closed.The difference was that this time Mason's great-granddaughter, Julia, was not there, and only Mason was present.“Old Master Stefani,” David called out respectfully.David admired this legendary old man’s strength very much as well as his contributions to Somerland.“You’re here,” Mason closed his eyes and replied.“Yes.”“Go and get a stool in the house so you can sit out here.”“Alright.”After David finished speaking, he we
David shuddered.He did not expect Old Master Stefani to be so optimistic about him.Indeed, he had the confidence to do that but that was because he knew he had the system backing him up.As long as he had the system, he would just need to spend money when others needed to rely on their talent and hard work.He only needed enough lavish points to reach the plateau that others needed years or even ten years to break through.Next, East League Capitals would spread out all over the world. When that happened, he would be able to spend money faster and faster, so his lavish points would also continue to grow wildly.It would not take long for him to improve his physique and mind power to god level. Even then, he could still continue to improve.He would also eventually surpass Mason.It was just that he did not understand how Mason was so sure that he could do this.Either way, it should not be his turn yet.“Old Master Stefani, you must be joking, right? What did I do to deserv
‘Does Somerland have such a family?’A question popped into David's mind.“Old Master Stefani, what about Somerland?” David asked.“Yes, Somerland also has many families like this hidden in the dark, but in the past, the military power of Somerland was strong enough to completely deter them, so they did not dare to come out so freely. However, with the expansion of the magnetic field, large weapons are about to be rendered useless, and these families will start popping up. Alas… we have both internal and external troubles,” Mason sighed.“Old Master Stefani, they should also be part of Somerland, right? Why don't they help us resist foreign enemies, rather than become Somerland's internal worries? If Somerland is seized by foreign forces, their life will be made more difficult too, right?” David was a little puzzled as he asked.He did not understand why these hidden families would cause trouble for Somerland.Everyone was on the same boat.Once the ship of Somerland capsized, n
