A corner of Danan Industrial Park.
There is a 10-storey building here.
In Dan'an's climate, a 10-story building is considered a small high-rise building.
This is the Carter family's office building.
This is a family that is considered to be in the upper middle level in the Danan area and controls part of the industry in Danan City.
Before the cocktail party, their family's power was not even worthy of Hall's shoes if compared with that of Sloane Manor.
But after the Hall family was gone, the Carter family's sphere of influence expanded.
The bulk of the Hall family's assets had been distributed, but even the remaining scraps made the Carter family very wealthy.
Today, they own several medium-sized factories and have also invested in an energy paste factory, owning part of the shares.
Although energy paste is not expensive, and there is more than one factory producing it in Dan'an area.
However, this is a necessity for the lives of humans and the Chiru people in the Danan area. As a monopoly food supply, every energy paste factory is a source of wealth.
Although Carter only obtained a portion of the shares of one of the factories, the future returns from this share were almost equal to the total of all other industries combined.
This is a scrap that the big guys look down upon, but for the Carl family, it is something that can fill their stomachs.
In a luxuriously decorated office upstairs in the building.
At this moment, there were several people here looking anxious.
Sitting behind the desk is Stone, the actual controller of the Carter Family.
Opposite the desk were Stone's two sons and the family's professional manager. Sitting on the sofa to the side was a pretty blonde girl.
The manager's face turned bitter. He said, "Boss, the Hengan Defense team will be here soon. What should we do next?"
"It's obvious that they've set their sights on our shares in the energy cream factory..."
Stone's expression remained calm. He slowly said, "I know their goal, but this share has already been acquired by the Stone family. We certainly can't give it up so easily."
"But their intention is very clear. They want to exchange shares of a small machinery factory for our shares of this energy cream factory."
"Since we've already established contact with the Blueprint Dispatch Force, shouldn't we tell them in advance to avoid any trouble?" the manager asked tentatively.
Stone nodded and said, "This is not the best option."
“If we tell them, will they believe us?”
"Our cooperation and close relationship with that adult are still under the surface."
"If he doesn't agree, we can't reveal it, otherwise it will cause bigger problems!"
The next moment, the girl sitting on the sofa suddenly jumped up, rushed to Stone's side, and said happily: "He agreed!"
Stone's old eyes suddenly lit up, and then he asked anxiously: "Bev, what did the adult say?"
Bev had a sweet smile on her face and said, "He said he would arrange for someone to come over."
Hearing his daughter say this, Stone's face instantly turned rosy. He clapped his hands and said, "Great! Great!"
“This is better than I expected!!”
Stone said: "This time, it may be an opportunity for our Stone family to truly step up to the next level!"
Stone's eldest son asked doubtfully, "Father, even if that gentleman sent someone to support us, with our current wealth, we can't take it to the next level, right?"
The manager's reaction was thoughtful, while Bev and Stone's second son also looked confused.
Stone sighed inwardly upon seeing this, but he didn't show it on his face. He said, "This lord, no matter who he sends, he can come in person on his own behalf!"
"This is a completely different treatment for us! If we reveal our relationship with that adult, while this will preserve our existing interests, it will eliminate the opportunity for other interests."
“But it’s different now!”
"With this endorsement, our relationship with that adult will move from underwater to above the surface!"
"The benefits we gained in the past were only from underwater. The real big cake is all above the water!"
"Before, we didn't have the chance to sit at the table and could only watch enviously. But now, with the help of that adult, we also have the opportunity to pick up the tableware!"
Stone's words made the eyes of his two sons light up, and the eldest son's face turned red.
He looked at his sister and said excitedly, "Bev! Well done!"
"You must work hard. The future of our family may depend on you!"
Bev lowered her head shyly.
Stone ruffled his daughter's blonde hair and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Bev."
"It's good to be able to help the family and father." Bev said softly.
…
Soon, several cars drove up to the Stone family's building.
Three of them are painted in the colors of Hengan Defense, and the other one is a civilian vehicle.
An officer at the front of the car got out and looked up at the Carter Family building.
With a slight smile on his face, he said to the people getting off the other car: "It seems that the Carter family has not given up yet."
"Sir, they won't give up, but once you get up there, everything will be settled!"
The officer chuckled and said, "Old Li, let's go. Today is your chance to make a fortune."
The man called Lao Li bowed slightly with a flattering smile on his face: "I'm just helping the brigade commander and you."
"Okay, let's go up!"
The young officer waved his hand, and the guards in the car led the way, and the group headed straight for the top floor.
Soon, the guards pushed open the door of the Carter family's office.
Old Li walked in first, followed by the young officer, and then four soldiers.
As for the other guards, they were waiting at the office door.
In the distance, there were employees in the Carter Family Building, huddled at their workstations, stealthily glancing at the situation here.
Someone whispered, "It's broken..."
"The Heng'an Defense soldiers are here. I'm afraid the boss and his men are in trouble."
Someone else murmured quietly, "Miss Bev is also in there. She hasn't come out yet. I wonder if she'll be in danger later."
"Boss, you're so stupid! How could you let Miss Bev in here? What if these soldiers have other ideas?"
A middle-aged employee lowered his head, hunched his neck, looked at the young employee who was speaking, chuckled, and said, "Miss Bev is someone you can envy."
"You think Miss Bev is in danger. Maybe Miss Bev was brought here by the boss specifically to deal with the danger."
"Otherwise, why would she come to the company today... You're young and don't know anything."
