Chapter 237

"It's almost time for the monthly Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square's Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square's Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square's Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square's monthly Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square Aden Square's restaurants have been in the top 18 months in a row, and the president hopes that everyone can give their full support to the restaurants under our Chamber of Commerce this time. This is the list of restaurants for this month, and every vote of the employees is very important. Unity and cooperation are the tenets of the Chamber of Commerce, and also the foundation of our foothold on the Norland Continent. There were more than 30 people sitting in a large conference hall. A middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair stood up and announced loudly. Two servants walked up to each of them and handed out a stack of white name lists.

Most of the people sitting in the conference hall were men, all of whom were dressed lavishly, and one could see that they were wearing expensive accessories. Any one of them was a renowned boss in the Aden Square, as well as a core member of the board of directors of the Chamber of Commerce.

However, at this moment, they were all sitting in silence, listening to the middle-aged man speak.

There was only a woman in a bright red dress sitting in the corner. She had fiery red lips, and the corners of her lips were slightly curled up as she looked on with a hint of mockery in her eyes. However, she only sat there quietly and didn't say anything. A coin that was half dragon coin and half gold coin was spinning nimbly between her fingers.

At the head of the table, next to the middle-aged man sat a skinny old man with a somewhat old-fashioned expression. He wore a greyish-white buttoned gown, and his sparse white hair was neatly combed to the back of his head. The shape of his white beard was a little strange. The lower end of his beard was not naturally pointed, but it was cut in the middle, so the shape of his face looked a little square, and he looked even more old-fashioned.

"President, is there anything else I can do for you?" the middle-aged man asked in a humble manner.

Everyone turned to look at the old man with a hint of awe and veneration in their eyes.

This was Jeffree Moreton, the founder of the Chamber of Commerce. He had founded the Chamber of Commerce with the Buffett Family, the Dodges Family, and the Marquis Family, and after over 50 years of development, it had become a renowned chamber of commerce on the entire continent. The Moreton Family was also extremely renowned on the Norland Continent. They dominated the spice market, as well as food and cloth industries. Their business empire had already encompassed the entire Norland Continent.

"Why are you here?" Jeffree ignored the middle-aged man's question and turned to the woman in the red dress sitting in the corner. Even though his face was completely expressionless, it was quite clear from his sharp gaze that he was displeased.

Everyone couldn't help but turn to look at the woman. Her vibrant red dress made her appear extremely eye-catching in the conference room, especially when there was only one woman in the entire conference room.

She appeared to be only around 17 or 18 years of age. Her long, wavy brown hair casually draped over her shoulders, and she was quite beautiful. However, her eyebrows were raised like a pair of daggers, and she appeared to be quite domineering instead of delicate.

There was no need for any makeup on her tender, white face, but her lips were bright red, just like the red dress she was wearing. It formed a strong contrast with her snow-white skin, making it hard for people to forget that face and those sexy red lips with just one look.

Everyone was appraising her in silence, but they didn't seem to be mocking her at all. Instead, they were waiting for her response.

The coin on Hill Buffett's fingertip stopped spinning, and the coin, which was unknown whether it was a gold coin or a dragon coin, was held in his hand. He looked up at Jeffree, and there was no hint of fear or retreat on his face as he said with a smile, "President Jeffree, as the representative of the Buffett Family, why can't I attend the board meeting of the Chamber of Commerce? Our three major clans generally don't participate too much in the Chamber's decisions, but don't forget that we're also the founders of the Chamber, and we're also members of the Chamber's board of directors, right? "

Hill's voice was very calm, but she was appraising Jeffree with a sharp gaze. Her age gap didn't seem to strike her with any awe or veneration.

The entire conference room was deathly silent, and no one dared to utter a single sound as they looked on.

The leader of the Buffett Family was also one of the founders of the Chamber of Commerce, and the Buffett Family's bank had been established throughout the entire Norland Continent. With a certificate of deposit from the Buffett Bank, one could withdraw all of their money from any Buffett Bank on the entire continent. This drastically reduced the risks and inconveniences faced by merchants carrying large amounts of cash around. Even the rulers of the various races had guaranteed the safety of the Buffett Bank, and it was undoubtedly the number one bank in the world.

As for this Young Mistress Hill Buffett, she was no mere flower vase. She began working in banks at the age of three, became an accountant at the age of six, and established her own bank at the age of 10.

On the day of her 18th birthday, the leader of the Buffett Family announced that Hill Buffett had completely defeated the second-generation heir of the Buffett Family, and as the eldest daughter of the third generation of the Buffett Family, she became the first-in-line heir to the Buffett Family.

In response to this decision, which appeared to be absurd to the outside world, the Buffett Family was very calm. Ian Buffett began to take a back seat, and the succession of power within the family was also progressing in an orderly manner. Everyone began to cooperate with Hill to become the leader of the Buffett Family.

Those who truly paid close attention to the Buffett Family were not surprised by this. Hill's sudden appearance had sped up the massive Buffett Bank, which had been operating steadily for several decades. The personal savings model that she had invented had broken the Buffett Bank's sole function of depositing and withdrawing money from other locations.

The stable monthly interest rate attracted many ordinary people to deposit their excess cash in the Buffett Bank. The fact that they could withdraw cash at any time was very convenient and fast, and the Buffett Bank had earned a large sum of money just by relying on this feature alone. To a large extent, the high fees and risks associated with transferring gold coins to other locations had been resolved.

"Hill is a genius." This was the only evaluation that Ian Buffett had of Hill. Just this alone was enough for her to establish a foothold in the Buffett Family.

To the board members present, Hill's reputation and status were still somewhat inferior to that of Jeffree's, but the fact that she was only 18 years old gave her limitless possibilities. The Buffett Family was still accelerating, and in the next few decades, she would be standing at the pinnacle of the entire business world. As for how much longer could Jeffree live? He didn't even have a qualified successor.

"Choosing a little girl to steer the ship? Looks like that old coot Ian has been fishing too much, and his brain has been eaten by the fish." Jeffree's expression did not change in the slightest in response to Hill's provocative words. He picked up his black cane from beside the table, and rose to his feet with a hint of disdain in his voice as he departed toward the door.

All of the board members present rose to their feet to express their respect for his departure.
