Chapter 1132

Author: Lord Leaf
Late at night, at the foot of Mount Golmin, Jeffrey was wrapped in a thick jacket made out of deerskin, dragging his elderly father, Jordan, behind him as they walked out of the mountain.

The temperature at Mount Golmin had dropped drastically recently, with its temperature reaching the lowest point of about minus thirty degrees during the night.

Under any normal circumstances, they would both be unwilling to step out of the house even if it would kill them. However, because of the clear requirements, they had to go into the mountain to gather ginseng.

They would only be able to get some food, medicine, and also the kerosene and firewood that they needed for heating in exchange for the ginseng that they gathered.

After all, the weather was so cold and the energy consumption for the heater was very high every day. Picking up firewood alone would not be sufficient for them and it would have to be matched with a sufficient amount of kerosene too.

After going into the mountain for the

    The father and son from the Weaver family were both dreaming of turning their lives around. Suddenly, a violent cold wind suddenly blew swiftly across Mount Golmin, making them shiver from the cold.Jordan sighed as he said, “The wind at this place is really too harsh. A gust of wind makes my whole body tremble and shiver from the cold. Let’s leave now.”“Okay!” Jeffrey had also felt the cold air that pierced his bones. He quickly shrank his neck as he stood up and patted the snow off his butt. After that, he stretched out his hand to help him father up.In fact, during this period of time when the father and son had to live together on Mount Golmin, their relationship had really improved a lot.In the past, although Jordan had always preferred his eldest son, he was a very selfish person and it was very difficult for him to really treat another person well.Therefore, he treated Jeffrey in just a very ordinary manner even though it was better than how he had treated Liam.Jeffre

    Jordan nodded his head and he could not help but sigh as he said, “It would be great if we could get two catties of wine. We can soak the ginseng in wine and enjoy a sip of the wine when we are feeling cold when we are up on the mountain. That would simply be amazing!”Jeffrey replied, “The widow, Leanne, seems to know how to make wine. I’ll chat with her and bring it up when I have the chance to do so someday. Perhaps she has some wine hidden at home.”The father and son continued walking as they chatted among themselves as they walked through the cold wind. They finally arrived at the entrance of the village after more than half an hour.Both of them did not immediately return to their dilapidated house. Instead, they headed to the hunter Mr. Lange’s house in the village in the dark.Although the people living in the village at the foot of Mount Golmin were all very poor, they were not missing anything at all.In the past, people from the village would often head into the mounta

    The last time when someone came to rescue the father and son from the Weaver family, they had been dealt with and handled before they could even get close to the Weaver family’s house.So, the father and son from the Weaver family did not know about this at all.At this moment, the Webb family from Sudbury was actually here to rescue them!Both of them were very excited and they immediately followed the group of people to the car so they could go back to Aurous Hill.As they were heading to the entrance of the village, Jordan could not help but ask the man dressed in black next to him, “Brother, we don’t have any friendships or connections with the Webb family from Sudbury. Why is the Webb family trying to rescue us?”The man replied coldly, “It seems that our chairman has the same common enemy as you do.”“A common enemy? Jordan exclaimed as he asked, “Who is it?”The man gritted his teeth before he said, “Charlie Wade!”Jordan and Jeffrey suddenly shuddered.It turned out th

    The Webb family had lost fifteen men, while Don Albert and Liam had also lost four of their men!Fortunately, Charlie had already reminded Don Albert and Liam to strengthen their defences a few days ago. That was the reason why both Don Albert and Liam had already sent more men up to Mount Golmin. Otherwise, they really would not have been able to deal with the opponent who had more than a dozen people.The father and son from the Weaver family, who were frightened to death, were caught from the snowfield.It was Don Albert’s subordinate who had arrested them. He was none other than Declan Zaber, the person who was in charge on Mount Golmin.Declan had a very darkened expression as he stared at the father and son who were scared out of their minds. After that, he said coldly, “Do the two of you really think that you will be able to escape?”Jordan cried out loud at this time, “Mr. Declan, we did not intend to escape at all. This group of people were the ones who wanted to put us i

    Lord Webb was also an unparalleled hero in the past.Everyone knew about him and everyone knew who he was when anyone mentioned his name in the South Region.He was a very intelligent person in his younger days and he started from scratch as he built everything up from nothing. He was able to build the Webb family up to be the top and most influential family in the South Region, proving that he really had extraordinary skills and abilities.However, he could not fight against old age and time. After Lord Webb retired and passed his family business on to the second generation because of his illness, the Webb family began to go downhill.In fact, no one would have expected the entire Webb family to suffer so much losses so quickly during this period of time.This made Lord Webb suffer continuous torment.It all started when his second grandson, who was a completely normal young man and an especially privileged person, suddenly contracted a strange disease that was incurable.After

    If her brother had not been killed, he would have personally smashed her brother into pieces!However, it was meaningless for him to have any regrets. Otherwise, the Webb family would not have ended up in this state today.Lord Webb looked up at Donald as he asked him coldly, “Where’s that woman with the last name Bishop now?”Donald hurriedly replied, “Dad, Alice has been locking herself up in the room during this period of time. She has been weeping her life away.”“Weeping her life away?” Lord Webb gritted his teeth as he said, “Aren’t you going to drive this sort of woman out of this house? What is the point of keeping her around? Do you want to wait for the entire Webb family to be completely defeated before you finally come to your senses?”Donald was stunned and he hurriedly explained, “Dad, you can’t blame Alice for this incident. This is all her brother’s own personal affairs and doings! She is a victim just like me.”Slap!No one would have expected the weak and fragil

    Donald felt very embarrassed as he clutched onto his cheek that was already flushed red.He finally realized his mistake at this time.His strategy was correct. He had to unite his comrades and treat the enemies of his enemy as his own allies.No matter whether it was the father and son from the Weaver family who were on Mount Golmin, the Wilson family, or any other people, they were all people whom he should be gathering and uniting together.However, he was wrong because he had acted too hastily. He should not have undermined the morale of his army.The enemy was right there and they would not go missing just because he came one step later.His allies were also right there and they would not die just because he was one step late.Why was he so anxious? He had sent his men up to Mount Golmin twice and he had already failed twice. He had also lost the lives of twenty men up there all for nothing.He should have remained calm and composed and just waited patiently. He should als

    “Okay.” It was only at this time that Lord Webb finally nodded his head. “Then, I’ll send The Big Eight up to Mount Golmin tonight. Get the private jet ready.”Donald asked in surprise, “Dad, do we need to be so anxious?”Lord Webb replied earnestly, “You’ve just lost fifteen of your men’s lives tonight. The enemy will definitely think that you wouldn’t dare to come back for a short period of time. We should send The Big Eight over there tonight so they can appear in front of the enemy early in the morning tomorrow. This way, the enemy will definitely be caught off guard!”Donald nodded as he was being educated.He felt a little inferior and ashamed of himself at this time because he felt that his abilities were really too far behind his old man’s.The old man was indeed the one who could really make plans and strategies to win the battle from a thousand miles away.After that, Donald immediately called and arranged for the private jet to prepare to take off. After about an hour,

    "That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

    In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega

    Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

    Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

    Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

    Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

    Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

    Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

    Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
