Chapter 569: 569: His Name is Julius Reed_1

The next day, explosive news swept across the nation.

The exhibition held by the Leocadia Family in Five-river Province had been smashed!

Smashed to pieces!

News about the Leocadia Family was always big news.

Such an embarrassing incident involving one of the four major families instantly captured the attention of the entire country.

But then the Leocadia Family stepped out to deny the rumors, claiming that the incident the day before was entirely staged.

The reason was that they had evacuated and dispersed tourists minutes earlier.

It was a test of the Leocadia Family’s ability to respond to emergencies on the fly.

They also claimed that they had discussed the matter in advance with Itai Huntington, the person in charge of Five-state International in Gonzalez City, and both parties were fairly satisfied with the outcome.

Itai Huntington even stepped forward to clarify the situation.

But many people felt that things were not so simple.

“Big brother, you went a bit too far this time, it made the news and went viral,”

Inside the Copper Sparrow Platform, Julius Reed and Aron Jackson sat on the sofa of the Azure Dragon Hall, eating fruit and watching the news on TV.

“It must have been tough for the Leocadia Family to come up with such a method. But you know, many people might actually believe it.”

Aron Jackson said with a smile, peeling grapes.

He wasn’t worried at all about smashing the place up.

As long as Julius Reed said the word, even if it meant death, he would dare to do it!

“The Leocadia Family must be furious,”

Julius Reed picked up an apple, crossed his legs, and as he peeled the apple, he said, “They definitely won’t let this go, we have to be careful both openly and secretly. Oh, and keep a close watch on everyone coming and going lately, I bet the Leocadia Family will definitely send someone to Gonzalez City to investigate this secretly.”

Even though the Leocadia Family made a statement in the news, such a large family was destined not to let this slide.

Their covert actions would not be few.

“Don’t worry, the airports, ports, and bus stations are all manned by my people. Any unfamiliar face from the capital, I’ve got them all on record.”

Aron Jackson asked with a grape in his mouth and a smirk, “Big brother, why are you so free these days, dropping by my place? What’s up, did your sister-in-law kick you out?”

With a mischievous grin, he teased, “Could it be that you’re helping Itai Huntington get revenge, and your sister-in-law got jealous? If you asked me, I’d say lay down the law, take them all!”

“Shut up!”

Julius Reed glared at him irritably, “In my heart, there’s only your sister-in-law. As for Itai Huntington, she got into trouble because she was helping me. You’ve followed me for so many years, don’t you know what kind of person I am?”

“I know, I know!”

Aron Jackson quickly nodded, while slyly smiling, “Big brother, Itai Huntington is a married woman, that’s a different flavor! And don’t even mention Jennifer Lopez from last time, that really made me… hiss…”

Aron Jackson took a deep breath, his face full of longing, “I miss it so much!”

“Since you like her so much, I can catch her for you to be your wife, how about that?”

Julius Reed said with a cold laugh.

“No! No!”

Aron Jackson quickly waved his hand, “I was just saying. By the way, Jennifer Lopez has been unusually quiet recently, has she given up on revenge?”

“That woman has a strong desire for revenge! She is probably scheming something big in the shadows.”

Julius Reed tossed the apple core in his hand, throwing it accurately into the trash bin ten meters away.

“Thud! Thud! Thud!”

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the Azure Dragon Hall.

“What’s the matter?”

Aron Jackson called out.

“Big brother, there’s a man named Jack downstairs who wants to talk to you,”

Dominating Tiger entered and respectfully greeted Julius Reed, “He says it’s about the issue of our docks detaining their smuggled goods.”

“Let him in.”

Aron Jackson said, legs still crossed.

“A few days ago, I happened to encounter a batch of smuggled goods at the docks. Big brother, guess how much?”

He said mysteriously.

“I’m not guessing!”

Julius Reed refused outright.

“Hey! Billions! Good grief, an American on the ship threatened me, and I threw him straight into the sea. Wouldn’t you know, a week later, the owner shows up!”

Aron Jackson stood up, straightening his clothes.

“`

“I’ll go wait in the next room; you’re busy,” he said.

Julius Reed picked up two apples and walked towards the room inside.

The Azure Dragon Hall was very large, with a total of ten rooms!

In addition to a spacious living room, there were nine other rooms of a few dozen square meters each.

Soon, the door to the Azure Dragon Hall was knocked upon once more.

“Come in!”

Aron Jackson sat back in his chair, propped up his legs in a lordly manner, and took on the posture of a boss.

“May I ask if you are Mr. Aron Jackson?”

After the door was pushed open, a middle-aged man and a young man walked in.

“That’s me. And you are…?”

Aron Jackson sized them up from head to toe and remained seated without moving an inch.

“My name is Jack Moore, and this is my nephew, Jack Lau.”

Jack Moore approached Aron Jackson with a respectful smile, “We’ve come to discuss some matters with Mr. Jackson, the boss.”

“Please, sit down. Guests should be made comfortable,” Aron Jackson said, gesturing with his hand, prompting the uncle and nephew to sit down cautiously.

“We have a batch of goods that your people intercepted,” Jack Moore began with a smile, “This batch is very important to us. We ask that you kindly let us off this time, Mr. Jackson.”

“Well…”

Aron Jackson leaned back on the sofa, his face showing difficulty.

“I understand, I understand!”

Quickly, Jack Moore took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Aron Jackson, “There are three hundred million in here, a token of gratitude for the trouble you’ve gone through these past days to keep our goods safe. It’s not much, but it’s a small gesture from our Moore family.”

“Ahem. You’re too kind,” Aron Jackson said, waving it off with a smile as Dominating Tiger immediately took the card.

“The card’s PIN is six eights, symbolizing even greater prosperity for Mr. Jackson.”

While Jack Moore was speaking, Jack Lau’s body suddenly shuddered.

“Your nephew doesn’t look too well. Is he unwell?”

Aron Jackson tilted his head to look at Jack Lau, “I have a doctor here who can check on you if you need.”

“No… I’m fine. Thank you, Mr. Jackson.”

Jack Lau spoke while his forehead was covered with sweat.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Jack Moore also noticed his nephew’s abnormal condition.

“It’s nothing. It’s just that meeting Mr. Jackson for the first time is a bit frightening. Please excuse my rudeness,” Jack Lau said, wiping the sweat from his forehead and giving an embarrassed smile.

“Why are you afraid? I’m not going to eat you!”

Mr. Jackson spread his hands and said with a smile, “I really like making friends with straightforward people like Mr. Moore. As for the goods, I’ll have my men accompany you to check them shortly. If there’s no problem, just take them and go.”

Money taken, the goods should naturally be delivered.

That’s the rule.

“Thank you so much, Mr. Jackson. It’s just that…”

Jack Moore hesitated.

“If you have anything else to say, don’t hesitate! We’re all straightforward people here; there’s no need to beat around the bush,” Aron Jackson said with a smile.

“There’s another favor I’d like to ask of Mr. Jackson.”

Standing up, Jack Moore spoke somewhat sheepishly, “It’s a rather difficult request. My nephew was beaten up by someone yesterday, here in Gonzalez City. I’m sure there’s no one Mr. Jackson can’t handle.”

“Oh? That’s a minor issue.”

Aron Jackson raised an eyebrow and asked, “To have someone so blind as to cross you, tell me his name, and I’ll send someone to bring him over to apologize to your nephew right now.”

“Thank you, Mr. Jackson. Tell Mr. Jackson quick, what’s that person’s name?”

Jack Moore looked to his nephew.

“His name is Julius Reed.”

Jack Lau spoke up.
