In the ancient theater building, all the local leaders had settled down.
The spectators and tourists in the outfield also sat down.
Tonight’s underground chamber of commerce was different from the past. There would be an opening dance show at the beginning and various performances such as boxing match later as an initiative to interact with the public and heighten the atmosphere.
However, everyone knew that the main event was the underground chamber of commerce at the end.
When the underground chamber of commerce commenced, the tourists would not be able to see it as the venue would be closed.
Now, everyone was just watching the opening gambit.
Wayne Kingsley stood on stage and said to everyone, “A warm welcome to all the people from all walks of life and districts who are here in Phoenicia to participate in this underground chamber of commerce. With an attitude of tolerance and openness, this session of the underground chamber of commerce show is also open to the outside world to be enjoyed with the general public. Now, I announce that the show tonight has officially begun!”
Thunderous applause greeted his words!
Wayne bowed to everyone, then walked down to greet the leaders on both sides of the stage one by one.
At the front stage, the performances began. Various dancing, singing, and acrobatic performances were put on. It was very lively.
The audience watched with enthusiasm, waving their arms and shouting.
In the whole theater building, the cheers were incessant.
On this side, the leaders in the seats were not interested in the performances at all.
They were here for the highlight of the night!
Shawn and Gibson were still mad at each other, not backing down in the slightest.
Wayne quickly made arrangements, poured a cup of the best tea for each of them, and said with a smile, “Master Hane, Master Hart, the underground chamber of commerce will start in half an hour. What kind of grievances do you have that you can’t let go of?”
Gibson took a sip of the tea, put the teacup heavily on the table, and snorted coldly. “I don’t want to sit with this hypocritical old man!”
The muscles on Shawn’s face twitched as favonovel.com could not bear it any longer. He slapped the table and shouted, “Gibson Hart, I’ve had enough of you! Do you think this is your Fiery Koi Gang?”
Bam!
Gibson had a hot temper. He slammed the table and stood up, glaring at Shawn while shouting, “Old man, if you’re not convinced, let’s fight!”
“Fine! Do you think I’m afraid of you?!”
Shawn could not tolerate it anymore. He also got up abruptly. With widened eyes, his body started raging with fire!
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Wayne sweated profusely and quickly persuaded them. “Please calm down. We can’t let outsiders see this and make a joke out of it.”
Wayne felt aggrieved. Could these two not calm down?
“Who dares to laugh at me?!”
Gibson roared, scanning the audience with his eyes.
All the other big guys remained silent, watching the show and drinking their tea.
They could not afford to provoke him!
Wayne was busy persuading Shawn and Gibson to sit down. He said with a bitter smile, “Master Hane, Master Hart, just treat it as if you’re protecting my dignity and let go of your grievances for the time being. The underground chamber of commerce is about to begin. What happens next should be the priority.”
Of course, both Shawn and Gibson knew their purpose for coming here this time. They huffed at each other and stopped talking.
At this point, Wayne finally breathed in relief.
However, favonovel.com dared not lower his guard, so favonovel.com just stood beside the two figures and accompanied them. He chatted on to relieve his boredom.
It was at this time that everyone from the different districts started to chat and gossip.
“Do you think Bowen Roy will attend?” one of the middle-aged men in a white suit asked.
“Not sure, maybe. After all, Master Bowen was the person sitting on the leading chair back then. Who knows if favonovel.com might suddenly appear?” another guy shook his head and said, his eyes full of worry.
After all, if Bowen participated in this session of the underground chamber of commerce, favonovel.com would be a strong contender.
Even if favonovel.com had lost his original power, favonovel.com might still be able to gather influence if favonovel.com really raised his arms. That would be a remarkable situation, indeed.
They had to be on their guards.
“Master Ken, have you heard? Will Master Bowen turn up?”
The man turned his head and asked Ken who was drinking his tea in silence.
At that question, all the big shots turned their attention to Ken.
After all, both Bowen and Ken came from the South River District. Moreover, at that time, Ken was under Bowen’s wing.
It was most appropriate to find out such news from Ken Cooke.
