Horus smiled and nodded in satisfaction. "No problem! Allow me to thank you at the outset, Mr. Getty!" He was certainly confident about their move because calling Rachel's information an insider tip was an understatement, when the Rothschild ruled America and the international oil market. While everyone else was busy predicting market trends, they moved the market itself. If this tip somehow still failed them, there was really nothing in this world to believe in.With a million tons of crude oil and should price increase by ten percent, that was a profit of over thirty USD per ton even with the premium paid to the Gettys. And with the ready stock waiting in Esteban's warehouse, that was over a hundred million waiting to be made.After finalizing the details with David, Horus left with both Wallis and David escorting him to the pier, after which he got on his two-deck yacht alone.Naturally, Horus wasn't aware that he had a passenger on board, as Charlie had hidden below deck, wh

Rachel's father David was already waiting in his own house, and was delighted to see Horus.Hurrying over, he shook his hand and beamed, "To what do we owe the pleasure, Mr. Daven? This is unprecedented."Horus smiled in turn. "My board chair sent me to discuss something with you, Mr. Getty… It's about oil, to be specific."David nodded. "That's never a problem. How much shale oil do you intend to sell through us?""No," Horus shook his head as he explained solemnly, "We intend to buy, not sell.""Buy?" David blurted, bemused. "But, why? Your oil company digs for it, and isn't involved in the refining business." Horus smiled as he admitted, "The board chair has his own take when it comes to the ongoing middle-east conflict. With potential escalation, he's interested in stockpiling."That left David perplexed. "But things look like they are calming down recently, with another round of peace talks due to begin soon. With the strait open, crude oil prices are expected to drop—not

Even with the Left Military Governorate subtly increasing shale oil production each passing year, the IRS would just ignore that. However, they were always monitoring closely every cent flowing in and out of their organization. Naturally, an increase in oil production means hundreds of millions in additional profits, but it couldn't be sold through standard distributors, since they had to keep it secret from Fleur Griffin.That was why the Left Military Governorate would first sell their stock to the Gettys off the books, who would then smuggle the oil to their own refinery. They would then inflate the numbers as they mixed the acquired oil with what they had themselves, and then sell it through standard distributors.After refinement, the oil would be distributed through Getty's global network and, through multiple rounds of transactions, eventually converted into untraceable commodities like gold or cash.And with this gray connection tying them together, David Getty—Wallis' hus

Horus frowned. "Elder Griffin…? Oh, he was saying he wanted to check out Mexico a few days ago, and I arranged for his transport. "Esteban sighed in relief. "Good. His presence Stateside is more or less troublesome, and it's even more troublesome if he notices anything and tells Her Lordship when he returns to her."Nodding and waving him off again, Esteban said, "Alright, just go. And stick to the plan.""Yes, sir," Horus bowed and turned to leave.The present base of the Left Military Governorate was in an affluent district here in Miami. Naturally, they didn't plant themselves at the richest neighborhood for ease of movement, instead setting up a yacht club by the bay where countless ships moved without drawing anyone's attention.With both sea and land being viable routes, they were naturally much more secure.Esteban had picked Miami precisely to make full use of the Scholar lineage in the Gettys, and to have the Gettys sell off unplanned barrels of oil.For the convenienc
Chapter 7839
The Rothschilds had always been a titan in trading, and their game plan was always to overwhelm their rivals with their sheer scale. If anyone wanted to cling to the Rothschilds, they would have to satisfy themselves with meager profits that wouldn't draw the family's attention. Otherwise, anyone trying to ride the wave of their success would be devoured whole too.That was why the third idea was stupid—the risk was high especially when betting big. And after much consideration, Esteban went with the third idea. It was safer—instead of hitting the futures market, they just had to stockpile while using small leverage to acquire more shares off the books. Once prices inflated again, they'd sell all their stockpile for a quick, hefty profit with the price difference. Even if the price fluctuated again afterward, there was no risk of suffering too much losses.Hence, he summoned his confidant—Horus Daven, praetor of the Left Military Governorate."Pay a visit to the Gettys and mee
Chapter 7838
Always listening, the Left Military Governorate immediately caught wind.They might be a feudal lordship under the rule of the Qing Eliminating Society at the moment, but they hd also been making their own moves to further private agendas.Over the last few years, they had been making money through faking their numbers in their respective businesses. And making money had become so addicting that Esteban—the Left Military Governor himself was always watching every day to find any ideas to make even more.He had certainly been getting rich with the recent surge in oil prices. Like any stock market investor, he bought stocks that kept hitting the daily inflation limit, but even though he had plenty of money now, he was always watching out for the next big thing.Naturally, the core members of the Left Military Governorate were all his family and cronies, working in perfect tandem as he moved. Once they learned from Rachel that the Rothschilds intended to use the Middle East Conflict t
