Instead, they split all the illegal transactions and gave them to those seemingly unrelated puppet gangs below. In secret, they continuously pushed those gangs to expand their influence in New York and even across the entire East Coast, aiming to increase their power and overall illegal income.Meanwhile, the Zanos’ public face, led by this generation's head of the family, Antonio, was doing its best to whitewash its identity and ingratiate itself with high society. Antonio knew very well that the higher echelons of society needed tools like the mafia. However, their hypocrisy meant they wouldn't allow any open cooperation with the mafia. This meant that for a mafia family to get their attention, the first thing they needed to do was to cleanse themselves.To put it simply, what high society needed now wasn't something hidden under the bed, like a night pot. They needed something they could openly display in the bathroom, which was clean and odorless like a toilet.Traditional maf

At the same time, Charlie drove the inconspicuous Chevrolet, carrying the nervous Angus, to the outskirts of Zano Manor. From the outside, they could see that Zano Manor was very lively at the moment. The entire estate was brightly lit with a large number of mafia members in black suits standing straight on both sides of the entrance, seemingly waiting for some important person.Upon seeing this from afar, Charlie couldn't help but smile and say, “Looks like we've come at the right time. The Zanos family seems to be having some major event.”Angus swallowed nervously and asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, there are at least a few hundred people here at first glance. Are we really going in to cause trouble?”Charlie smiled and said, “Didn't I say we're going to put on a show for them? Just follow me later. I'll signal to you to give you instructions later.”He then added, “But if you're really worried, I can go in alone.”Angus spoke up without hesitation and said, “Mr. Wade, I am worried

The girl inside said helplessly, “Okay, you're right. Now, please leave first. I need some time to freshen up and get dressed!”Antonio said coldly, “I'll give you ten minutes. I'll wait here for you.”The girl had no choice but to say, “As you wish. If you're willing to wait, no one's stopping you.”Antonio chuckled coldly and warned, “Jilian, I advise you not to try to climb out the window to escape because I've already arranged for someone to watch outside your window. Once you climb out, they'll catch you and take you to the airport directly!”The girl was instantly furious. “You jerk!”Antonio, unperturbed by his daughter's insults, smiled and said, “Remember, Jilian, Sicilian girls live for their family for life! Betraying the family would be a disgrace to me. I would rather send you to Sicily and have you shear sheep for life than let you become a disgrace to the family.”The girl screamed hysterically, “Antonio Zano! I hate you!”Antonio said, “You can hate me, Jilian, b

After he was done speaking, he turned on the headlights and stepped on the accelerator to drive out.Meanwhile, inside the black sedan, Jilian, who was dressed in a white evening gown, drove the car out in a hurry. Earlier, she had deliberately damaged her dress and used that as an excuse to slip away from the main hall. She found this black sedan in the yard with its keys still in it.At this moment, Jilian had no idea where to go. She only wanted to escape quickly before anyone noticed her absence and reacted. However, just as she nervously drove the car out of the estate, a Chevrolet suddenly appeared at the entrance of the manor.She instinctively tried to brake, but for some reason, despite all her efforts, she couldn't push the brake pedal down even a bit. Unbeknownst to Jilian, this moment was exactly what Charlie had been waiting for.Regardless of who was driving, Charlie had used his Reiki to block the brake pedal and the steering wheel, making the car unable to slow do

“Extort?!”When Charlie heard this, he got angry and blurted out, “I was merely driving by here. I didn't offend anyone and was suddenly hit by this girl's car. It is natural for me to ask for compensation. How can you say I am extorting her? Don't bully the minority with your numbers, and don't think that I am afraid of you because of your numbers!”The mafia member immediately took out a pistol from his waist, pointed it at Charlie's head, and said coldly, “Get out now! If you speak more gibberish, I will shoot you to death!”Charlie said angrily, “Damn it! You are really capable. You want to shoot me in public?”At this time, Angus pushed open the passenger door of the Chevrolet, holding up the phone in his hand as he said loudly, “Mr. Charlie, I have called the police!”Charlie nodded with satisfaction, looked at the members of the mafia, and said coldly, “Aren't you going to shoot me? Come on, shoot me right here!”As he spoke, Charlie pointed to his forehead and said, “Shoo

There was no way he would let such a good opportunity slip by.So, he stubbornly said, “I want cash, and I'm waiting right here. If you don't give me the money, I'll wait for the police to arrive!”Jilian looked nervous and desperate as she pleaded bitterly, “Sir, please take me away from here, and I'll give you two hundred thousand US dollars!”Charlie remained unmoved as he insisted, “I want cash, and I want it now!”Jilian was on the verge of tears as she anxiously looked back toward the estate, fearing her father might come chasing after her. However, Charlie didn't give her any chance.At that moment, a tall, stout man in a suit hurriedly approached with a large group behind him. Jilian fell into despair when she saw this because the man in the front of the group was her father, Antonio.Antonio was furious and alarmed. He never expected that just moments after Jilian had accidentally damaged her dress and was supposedly mending it, he would receive reports that she had cras

Antonio's mouth twitched twice when he heard Charlie's offer.He clenched his teeth and forced a smile as he said, “Okay, you are really capable of extorting the mafia!”Charlie asked curiously, “Hey! Are you a mafia member?”Antonio sneered, “What? You just realized?”After saying that, he put the one thousand US dollars back into his wallet and said to Charlie with a look of arrogance, “Since you know my identity, you still have time to get out now.”Charlie said disdainfully, “Are you still asleep? You want to get rid of me without paying me?”Antonio clenched his teeth and said, “Young lad, if you can't grasp the opportunity given to you, don't blame me for being rude to you!”After that, he ordered his men, “Break his legs for me and then drive him a hundred miles away. Hurry up, the VIP is coming soon.”Several men immediately rubbed their hands and walked toward Charlie.At this time, the sound of sirens sounded, and several police cars drove up quickly.After the car

He couldn't believe he was being extorted right at his own doorstep.The critical thing was, he had no way out now.At that moment, his trusted aide approached quietly and said, “Mr. Zano, the VIP is about to arrive.”Antonio instantly felt nervous. He didn't want the VIP to arrive and find him arguing with someone at his doorstep.The main issue was his daughter crashing her car into someone else's car and him refusing to compensate the other party, which was embarrassing.He had no other choice but to nod and pull his henchman over, personally removing the pistol from his waist before he threw it on the ground. He then pushed the henchman toward the police, saying, “Take him away.”After that, he looked at Charlie and said, “You want a hundred thousand US dollars, right? Wait here. I'll get someone to get it for you.”The police officer was stunned to hear this and blurted out, “You're asking him for a hundred thousand US dollars?”Charlie said matter-of-factly, “That’s right

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

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove

Charlie smiled. "Who, me? You'd laugh at me, but it was only after Steven found me that I learned to drive. I never bought my own car either and only had the two supercars gifted to me, and I only drove those a handful of times at best. Even now, I'm driving the BMW 5-series I bought for my father-in-law."Then, he remembered Marianne Long and said, "I did drive a friend's Tesla back to Hong Kong, but it was only for a short time, and I didn't manage to look into their so-called assisted driving system."Yolden thought about it and smiled, "But y'know… how would I describe the car, specifically? Have you heard of Mario Balotelli, the soccer player?"Every man present aside from Keith nodded—Mario had been a philosopher on the soccer field, and even those who didn't watch soccer were familiar with his name.Nodding, Yolden continued, "The way I see it, Mario has been a player with top-class hardware but third-rate software. Give him Messi or Ronaldinho's intelligence, and he'd be a

Kaeden then asked, "Well, professor, how do you suppose we overtake the competition at turning points? Or indeed, what qualifies as succeeding in that respect?"Yolden thought about it, formulating his words before explaining, "My personal understanding of the matter isn't simply to aim for turning points. Instead, it's things like staying on the inner lane of the race track and reaching the finish line faster by going where no other race car had gone before—or indeed where people never thought to go before."That's the case for new energy cars. Our fossil fuel energies have constantly lost to other countries and would always come up short. But with new energy cars, we can change the rules altogether."We can't catch up to their engine tech? Then we won't—there's no way they are masters in electric-powered engines, are they? They've spent decades on internal combustion engines and haven't the first clue about electric-powered engines."So, while everyone hasn't turned all their foc
