Chapter 2322

Maurina pondered for a moment before she answered the question.

“Would you believe me if someone from the Rothschilds were to step in and change your current rules?”

President Murik thought about it seriously before answering, “Of course…”

Maurina immediately made a call in front of Murik. Not too long later, Murik received a notice.

“What? You want me to change the disqualified test results? Then what’s the point of testing in the first place?”

It was a call from the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce headquarters.

Their stance was adamant, and Murik finally gave in to their request.

“Alright. I understand…” Maurina smiled contentedly when she saw Murik end the call. “There’s no need for me to further prove my identity anymore, is there?”

Murik was stunned for a long while before he asked cautiously, “I just want to know why you would interfere with this.”

Maurina began to brainwash Murik.

“Us Rothschilds aren’t like other financial tycoons or major families. As long as the business is a profitable one, we will be there. I’ll be straightforward with you as well. Those standing outside may be passionate and enthusiastic merchants, but they are not made for business…”

“If someone truly wanted to, they could gather the men outside and establish a whole new Petroleum Chamber of Commerce. By then, this branch of the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce would no longer

hold any actual power.”

Murik was furious. “Are you threatening me?”

“If you think that way, then there is nothing I can say to convince you otherwise. I just want you to properly decide whether you’re willing to deal with this peacefully, or if you want to fight a losing battle.”

Maurina’s Intent was clear and Murik knew he had to make a choice. If he declined, Maurina would pull away the petroleum merchants outside and establish a new Petroleum Chamber of Commerce. After all, this was just a business organization. There was nothing political about their group.

Not to mention that with the Rothschild family’s power, the new Petroleum Chamber of Commerce might even have a greater influence than the current one.

This was a fact, regardless of whether Murik was willing to accept it or not. In addition, Murik was unable to get in contact with Barne, which put Murik in a difficult spot.

“Mr. Murik, I don’t mind you taking your time to think this over. But I must remind you that some of them outside can’t seem to wait much longer.”

Maurina raised her hand and pointed at the scene beyond the window.

As she said, the people outside were not even lining up anymore. All of them leaned toward the window so as to hear the conversation going on inside.

In face of such pressure, Murik finally nodded. “Alright. I’ll trust you this once!”

“That’s great. I love talking to intelligent people,” Maurina snapped her fingers, “But I’ll make it clear first. I do not like people going back on their words, and no matter what I do later, you will not interfere. Otherwise, I will not be held responsible for what happens after.”This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Maurina was very persuasive when she spoke.

Murik did not make a sound. He had chosen to keep silent.

Maurina stood up, pleased, and walked toward the entrance to open the doors.

All the petroleum merchants outside rushed over, wanting to know what had come from their discussion.
