SWNOVELS Chapter 515
Chapter 515
Jason withdrew the Sprout family from the competition for the project after he obtained the chip technology. He even withdrew from the Star Competition. The Lopez family and the Sprout family were in the same boat.
In just a few days, the originally bustling Flores family mansion, where many other families have gathered, became more than half empty.
Dolph Flores was shocked. He quickly met with the elder of the Sprout family. “Aren’t you guys going to fight for Daniel’s project, which is worth billions of dollars, anymore? Something’s wrong!” Dolph shook his head. “One family won’t be able to undertake such a huge project. Didn’t we agree that our four families would work together?”
Gaius Sprout coughed twice, then said after a while, “We won’t compete for the project anymore. You guys can work with
Daniel
Dolph was in disbelief. “This is a once–in–a–lifetime opportunity. We’ll be able to fully expand into the market of the Hushe Republic as long as we work with Daniel. It’s such a rare opportunity for the four of us, but you’re actually giving it up?”
Gaius chuckled and looked at Dolph with faint contempt. “Dolph, you can’t cling to your old ideas anymore. This is a technological society. Our four families‘ voodoo medicine might be unique, but they are insignificant in this world of ours. Only technology will be enduring.
The Sprout and Lopez families have decided to enter the chip industry,
“Are you out of your mind?” Dolph’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Something like that required talent and skills.
They wouldn’t be able to enter a high–tech industry like the chip industry with the technological level of Wayne Country, which did not even have a fully developed light industry.
The Sprout and Lopez families must be crazy..
Gaius looked up at Dolph and said with a faint smile, “It’s been a long time since we met. Dolph, the Sprout family is not longer the Sprout family we were before.”
He didn’t want to continue speaking to Dolpland turned to leave. When he passed by the elder of the Dale family, Raymond, he suddenly stopped and asked in a benevolent tone, “Raymond, do you want to invest a little
Raymond was shocked and shook his head in fear. “No, no, no. Don’t worry about us. The Dale family is determined to follow Daniel.”
Daniel had scared the Dale family out of their wits. They did not dare to think too much and were determined to follow
Daniel.
“Heh, coward.” Gaius had a contemptuous tone. He ignored everyone and walked straight out the door.
He thought, “It’s only a small project worth a few billion dollars. The chip technology that we have obtained will give us billion dollars or even more in the future.”
This time, the Sprout and Lopez families had staked everything on this. They had sold all their assets to gather funds. They had even sold almost all their overseas assets.
After Caius left, Dolph felt that something was wrong no matter how he thought about it. He hurriedly gathered everyone and went to look for Olivia.
Olivia was relaxing in Maple Villa. She casually said when she heard that Dolph and the others were here, “Let them in.”
think
“Saintess!” Dolph said with a conflicted expression the moment he walked in. “Something has happened. The Sprout and Lopez families are withdrawing from the competition for Daniel’s project and are entering the chip industry. Do you there’s something fishy about this?”
Olivia sat up straight and pointed to the seat next to her. She asked Dolph and the others to sit down and then said calmly,

“They probably want to die.”
Dolph was speechless,
He thought, “Saintess, aren’t you being too direct?”
“Saintess, Dolph said, very confused, “Should we do something? Actually, I think that while Gaius’s actions are a little abrupt, he is not unreasonable. The high–tech industry is flourishing. Do you think the Flores family should also invest a little into the industry?”
Olivia glanced at him speechlessly. “Is there something wrong with your brain?”
Dolph was dumbfounded by the scolding. He stuttered, “Then what should we do? families?”
ould we ignore the Sprout and Lopez
He wondered, “What does Saintess mean by that? Is she not optimistic about the high–tech industry?”
“We find a way to get a good deal, of course!” Olivia hooked her little finger and gestured for everyone to listen. The chip industry is a money–burning industry. A few billion dollars being thrown into the industry will only lead to a small
improvement in chip technology. The Sprout and Lopez families will naturally have to sell their assets in other industries to gather funds since they want to enter the chip industry.
“Why aren’t you acquiring the industries that the two families are selling at this time? Why are you being conflicted”
Olivia’s words instantly woke Dolph up. He widened his eyes in shock. “Y–you mean…
“Having four major families is too much,” Olivia lowered her gaze and said coldly. Just one or two major families are enough.”
The implication behind the Saintess’s words was too shocking. The elders of the Flores family were too shocked to speak. They stood there like statues.
They only came back to their senses after they left Maple Villa and returned to the Flores family’s meeting hall.
The Fourth Elder was the first to speak. “What do you think the Saintess means? Does she want to annex the Sprout and Lopez families?”
The cup in the Second Elder’s hand fell to the ground. His wrist was shaking uncontrollably as he struggled to accept reality.
The four major families had existed for hundreds of years. Although they competed with each other, they had never annexed the other families.
Yet, the Saintess was trying to annex the Sprout and Lopez families the moment she made a move. T–this…
The Second Elder didn’t know how to describe the Saintess.
This was too much. It was beyond his imagination.
