At the same time, more and more people were arriving from nearby towns. The understaffed mining zones were quickly filled. Some experienced miners even came rare resources, and they immediately received good treatment because of their skills in critical parts of the mining operations.This made the mine owners in Dalenin and the surrounding towns uneasy. Especially Hamid.Dev’s broken finger looked mangled. Hamid looked at it coldly and mocked, “You are completely useless!”Dev gritted his teeth. “Sir, it is not that I am useless. It is just that Dixon from Hamilton Group is too dominant! All you wanted was to give advice, but he kicked me out without giving me a chance to speak. Isn’t that too arrogant?”Hamid’s expression darkened. He narrowed his eyes, waiting for Dev to continue.“I have investigated it,” Dev said in a low voice. “Hamilton Group usually operates only in cosmetics and medical fields. This is the first time they have entered mining. They are not serious. Dixon even

"Fruits?!" Henry finally snapped out of his surprise. "Yes! Yes! Fruits are in season, so there are plenty of choices. Some of our people even have gardens at home that produce all kinds of fruit!" They did not have much wealth, but food, especially fruit, was always abundant. Since some men grew their own, seasonal fruit could easily be shared. If Dixon wanted it, he only had to ask. But Dixon did not come to talk about fruit. "Mr. Dixon, I can have someone prepare fruit for you to take home," Henry said with a smile. "But the problem with the mining zone right now is..." "Just approve their request," Dixon replied calmly. "Our rivals are forcing them to choose sides. It is difficult for them to decide, but that is not our problem. Let them cancel the contract, then share the compensation among our brothers. Since the holidays are coming, they can use it for holiday expenses." "But..." Henry did not know whether to laugh or cry. Of course, he was happy about a bonus, but a

“Father, you are getting older,” Hamid said calmly. “You are too conservative. How can the Vozak family become a strong family in the northwest district if we keep being this cautious? How can we compete with the powerful families from the north?” Hamid had already made up his mind. He was determined to gain foreign support, even if it meant taking great risks. The rare illegal mining resources would be used as bargaining chips in trade for profit. He did all this to give the Vozak family a firm foothold in the northwest district. In fact, he wanted to make the northern families feel intimidated. He wanted those who had always been considered untouchable to feel threatened by the Vozak family. Although the path to the top was full of obstacles, Hamid believed success was only a matter of time. He trusted his own judgment. Without hesitation, he called Dev Gom. But not to stop the action against the Hamilton Group. Instead, he wanted to speed up the attack. He wanted to force

Elsewhere, in the Vozak Residence, inside Bonan’s room... “What did you just say?” Bonan asked with a dark face, his eyebrows furrowed tightly. “Is the Hamilton Group really that terrifying? More than ten powerful families were wiped out by them… including the Biz family? Wasn’t the Biz family highly influential?” Bonan’s throat went dry. His hand holding the phone was trembling. “That’s right, Bonan. You have no idea how scared the powerful families are whenever Dixon and the Hamilton Group are mentioned. But we never dare to spread it. Do not speak carelessly, understand?” Bonan fell silent. It was hard for him to even breathe. The voice on the phone added, “Remember this well, never provoke Dixon. Whoever does will die…” Bonan could no longer hear the rest clearly. All that remained was the pounding of his heart in his chest. Even a family as strong as the Biz was destroyed by Dixon. The Vozak family, only considered second-rate, was nothing in comparison. Bonan c

Hamid sat in the car with an arrogant attitude while lowering the window. After Dev got out of the car, he walked straight to the entrance with a proud look. "Let us in. If not, and your boss blames you, you will not be able to bear the consequences," Dev said casually, only giving the guard a glance before ignoring him. But the guard stiffened after seeing so many important figures arriving at the entrance of the mine. Everyone who passed by usually treated him with respect, some even offered him cigarettes. Yet this man dared to threaten him? "No one is allowed to enter!" the guard shouted harshly. "You must wait at the gate!" The executives had given clear instructions that cars from the north had to enter first, while cars from Voroz City had to wait on the side. He was already being generous by not kicking this local car away immediately. And now this local man dared to threaten him? Did he really think a guard had no value? Did he not know who the guard was working for? H
