Chapter 1144

Did he think the capital market was child’s play?

Many people who knew the Gold family and the Larson family shook their heads one after another.

“Alas, Young Master Clarke is taking it too far this time. Although his method of destroying the Hull

family is unforgettable, we’re talking about Uppercreek after all. Furthermore, the Larson family is

involved. It’s not going to be easy.”

“No doubt about it. Uppercreek is going to be a tough nut to crack, made even tougher now that the

Larson family is in the picture.”

“The Gold family is very influential in Uppercreek and well-connected with the other families. Making a

move against the Gold family means breaking the Upperglade Chamber of Commerce Alliance!”

Among them, some ignorant wealthy second-generations in other regions, including some foreign

guests, shrugged their shoulders to express their lack of understanding. They asked, “What is the

Upperglade Chamber of Commerce Alliance?”

Immediately, someone chuckled and said, “You don’t even know about the Upperglade Chamber of

Commerce Alliance? What a daft.”

Following that, someone explained.

“Upperglade is the largest chamber of commerce alliance in Uppercreek. Basically, all business owners

and major corporations in Uppercreek are members of this alliance. It’s no exaggeration to say that

Uppercreek is the most united international metropolitan area. The members of this alliance are

collaborative entities, supporting and competing with each other.

“To put it simply, Upperglade is the largest chamber of commerce in Uppercreek, also the only one. If

something goes wrong in any company, all alliance members will unanimously unite against the

outsider. In other words, if Young Master Clarke wants to make a move against the Gold family, he

must first deal with the Upperglade Chamber of Commerce Alliance. Otherwise, all the other

companies and affluent families in Uppercreek will be waiting for him!

“Just think about it. What scenario will that be? The entire Uppercreek! There are thousands of

companies there, not to mention dozens of local families.”

After hearing this, everyone nodded.

It would be difficult.

No wonder Jameson was so confident.

It turned out that there was also the Upperglade Chamber of Commerce Alliance standing behind him,

representing the whole of Uppercreek!

That was the leading area for the development of international commerce, finance, and technology!

Could Young Master Clarke deal with the entire Uppercreek?

Not likely.

After everyone had finished discussing, Jameson looked triumphant and said, “So, Young Master

Clarke, do you regret it now? You didn’t even weigh your capabilities before going up against the Gold

family! Do you really think Uppercreek is a rubbish pit like Riverton?”

In the venue, there were many local business owners from Riverton. Hearing such insulting words by

Jameson at the moment, they immediately became furious!

“Jameson Gold, what are you talking about?”

“Show some respect when you speak! Uppercreek is the rubbish pit, not Riverton!”

Facing the anger of the business owners from Riverton, Jameson stood his ground and argued back

with them before turning back to the silent Philip. He said, “Young Master Clarke, what’s the matter?

Are you finding it difficult to carry out your earlier threat? Let me see, there are another 25 minutes to

go. I look forward to seeing what methods you have to make the Gold family go bankrupt!”

Overbearing.

After Jameson said this, everyone’s eyes were on Philip.

There was basically no question about it.

No matter how powerful the family was, could it fight against an international city?

That involved trillions of GDP!

Who could possess such a heaven-defying method?

That was not simply a competition of financial resources, but also a competition of connections and

methods in all aspects!

Including power.

Philip raised his head, looked at the ceiling of the carved beams, and murmured, “Uppercreek is a

really nostalgic place.”

Then, Philip lowered his eyes. With chills in his gaze, he stared at Jameson and said, “The biggest

mistake you made is to mention the Upperglade Chamber of Commerce alliance. Do you know who I

called just now?”
