Zeke said, “You know, I don't even wanna make a move against you myself lest I get my hands dirty. Someone's going to deal with you later.”

Martin snickered. “Don't you think you're overestimating yourself, Zeke? I may not be a big shot, but I have a deep-rooted history in this land. You want to deal with me without making a move yourself? I'm afraid that'll only happen when pigs start to fly.”

The other suppliers broke into laughter.

When he finished his words, the lighting in the hall dimmed.

“Someone's at the door,” someone said.

“Who's that?”

Everyone turned to look at the door.

Immediately, a burly figure came into view. He had blocked off most of the sunlight, causing the hall to darken.

It did not take long for someone to recognize the newcomer. “It's Mr. Tavian!”

True enough, the newcomer was the current head of Redwood Capital, the Tavvy Zeke had been talking about, and the Mr. Tavian the crowd referred to.

As soon as Tavian's arrival was announced, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax.

Everyone knew who Tavian was.

When Tavian was rising as one of the young talents in the industry, he could wipe out the entire underworld with ruthless means, winning battles after battles by using few men.



After conquering the underworld, Tavian did not use their powers to cause trouble and become a ruler. Instead, he dismissed all of them.

He also created many job opportunities for those involved in the underworld to make sure they had an income.

In fact, it was all thanks to Tavian that almost half of the bosses in the hall could achieve their current success.

In their eyes, Tavian was like a god, a savior sent from the heavens.

Hence, they feared and respected him.

Seeing Tavian, they quickly rushed forward and surrounded him.

“Mr. Tavian, sorry for our lack of hospitality.”

“Please have a seat, Mr. Tavian. You haven't eaten, haven't you? We'll set up a few tables to treat you to a meal later.”

“May I know what the purpose of your visit is today? Perhaps you can let us know, and we'll settle it for you.”

Tavian was feeling utterly annoyed.

Oh, my goodness. You fools are ignoring Zeke, but you're being so hospitable and respectful toward me. Are you guys trying to get me killed? How can I receive such treatments when Zeke is right in front of me?

Tavian yelled, “Get lost, all of you!”

His words left the crowd stunned, and they hurriedly distanced themselves from him.
