After a moment of silence on the phone, the person replied, “After the last financial war, the Rothschilds
were severely affected, and recently, they are cleaning up the mess. Apart from Bella, who is still eager
to try again, the others will not fight Somerland and you for the time being. But the Freemasons have
been doing a lot of things recently. Judging from their current actions, they seem to be on the verge of
making a move!”
Upon hearing this news, Jasper’s expression became even more solemn.
“Okay, I see, you should continue to observe the situation over there and tell me in time if there is
anything unusual.”
After hanging up, Jasper made himself a cup of coffee, sat down on the sofa, and started to think.
Freemasonry’s influence and control over the United States and the West were very strong.
In the beginning, he used the method of a military expedition and finally forced the Rothschilds to back
up, which then allowed the domestic economy to recuperate. If the people from the Freemasons
wanted to do anything at this time, he would be in big trouble. However, in any case, the current global
situation was just like this.
Global finance would never be peaceful, and as long as there was capital, there would be conflict. Even
so, he had nothing to fear!
When worse came to worst, he would just adopt measures appropriate to the actual situation.
At two o’clock in the afternoon, Jasper went to the manor that Dean had booked. As soon as he
entered the door, Dean stepped forward and greeted him with a smile.
“Jasper, you’re here, please sit down! Today, I asked the chef to prepare 108 unique dishes according
to the eight major cuisines!”
“It’s just a meal, why do you have to do so much?” Jasper shook his head with a smile.
Dean said, “I should do this. If you hadn’t supported me, Jasper, I’m afraid I‘d already be kicked out of
this position as the head of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce.”
Speaking of this, Dean’s expression was extremely sincere. Then, he said, “Actually, I invited you to
dinner today mainly because there are a lot of things I want to tell you.”
Jasper glanced at him and did not speak. Then, he went straight to the table and sat down. Soon, the
waiters began to bring exquisite delicacies to the table.
“Jasper, try this cherry blossom sea cucumber…”
As Dean spoke, he enthusiastically pushed the dishes in front of Jasper.
Facing a table of countless delicacies, Jasper did not move his fork. Instead, he looked at Dean and
said, “You didn’t invite me here just to eat, right?”
“Jasper…” Dean looked at him. He wanted to say something, but he stopped himself a few times.
Jasper sighed and said, “If you have anything, just spit it out. It’s not like you to dilly-dally.”
After hearing this, Dean had a sad look on his face and said, “Jasper, since the last time you helped me
deal with Rio and those who used their seniority to ride roughshod over people in the Haddock
Chamber of Commerce, the situation in Haddock is finally stabilizing.”
Jasper raised his eyebrows and asked again, “Isn’t this a good thing, Why are you still making such an
expression?”
Dean shook his head, an even more bitter smile appeared on his face. “Jasper, you don’t know. When
my grandpa was around, the Haddock Chamber of Commerce had a certain authority in Haddock
Province and even in the whole of Somerland. Though those people out there covet the Haddock
Chamber of Commerce, they wouldn’t dare to mess with Old Master Hurlbutt. But now with the passing
of Old Master Hurlbutt, although there is no clear sign, I have found that some people have begun to
eye the Haddock Chamber of Commerce and have taken action.”
After Jasper listened to Dean quietly, he asked again, “Then do you know who those people are?”
Dean smiled wryly and shook his head. “I don’t know yet, they managed to hide very well. And at the
moment, they have only made a few tentative attempts at the Haddock Chamber of Commerce and
there is no concrete action yet, so it is difficult for me to determine their identities.”
Speaking of this, Dean suddenly raised his head and he became more serious.
“However, I have a hunch. Those people are likely to be high-level families of Swallow Capital, but they
are hidden so deeply that people can’t detect them at all!”
Dean was actually very worried about this. The Haddock Chamber of Commerce had a lot of power,
but in the huge country of Somerland, there were still quite a few chambers of commerce like the
Haddock Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, no one knew if the Haddock Chamber of Commerce
would still perform as well as before now that Gale was not around.
If the top family of Swallow Capital was really eyeing them this time, then the Haddock Chamber of
Commerce might be in trouble.
