“I know. I was the one who told them the location of the inn.”
Arturo nodded.
“All right, then. Tell Raul to bring men to scare those three. It's best if he manages to scare them off,” Eduardo instructed.
“Why? Didn't Uncle Zyaire bring those people here?” Arturo asked, baffled.
“I don't know if he's been bewitched or what. I can't believe he brought outsiders to steal business from us.
They're here for the decamillennium ginseng. If he gives it to them, he'll be giving him tens of billions. How can he possibly do that? Have Raul get rid of those three. Once we earn money with it, I’ll buy you a Porsche,” Eduardo whispered to Arturo.
At the mention of Porsche, Arturo nodded vigorously. “Don't worry, Dad. I’ll definitely do the job well.”
With that, Arturo rushed out to look for Raul.
Raul was a well-known hoodlum in the area, and he had over a hundred underlings. Most of the time, he earned by getting protection fees.
Ever since the Rider family had begun their pharmaceutical business, Raul had extorted protection fees from them as well. However, as the Rider family became more and more well-off, they simply decided to give hoodlums like Raul money to protect their shops.
Soon, the Rider family became close to Raul, and Raul became the Riders' private bodyguard. That way, no one would dare to cross the Rider family. However, there was one exception— the Sabine family.
The Sabines had soared to great heights earlier, and their business was in the lumber industry. As logging was laborious and dangerous work, not even Raul dared to cross the Sabine family. Just the woodcutters who worked for the Sabine family alone were more than enough to deal with the hoodlums.
After taking Tommy and Phoenix around, Jared returned to the inn. The county seat was a small place, and they soon finished the trip around the place.
