"This is the most authentic Syracuse flavor, Texas. Have you been away from Syracuse for too long? Has your sense of taste deteriorated?"

Right next to Salvador, another white-haired old man glanced at him with disdain, and then responded bluntly.

For other families, the scene of the two family heads mocking each other was not a good omen.

But for the Texas family and the Saluzzo family, they have become accustomed to such scenes.

"To be honest, your taste is not as good as your child's. At least that child knows what delicious food is." The head of the Saluzzo family said slowly.

"Huh? Him?" Salvatore curled his lips in disdain at the mention of his own child. "So, you've forgotten that he traded a nearly scrapped winery for your three large warehouses?"

"He's a businessman, a complete and utter businessman... I'm proud of that, but if you ask him about his taste... well, I bet you could serve him a plate of raw foie gras and he'd say it's so fresh and eat it all. That's what he calls a business aesthetic."

Salvadore said, glancing at the other person again, then shook his head.

"Where's that little girl from your family? I remember she's your darling, isn't she?"

"You mean Lappland?"

The old man smiled.

Although the two old men have very different personalities and behavior habits, they agree on one thing.

Both old people are extremely fond of their granddaughter.

only……

"Ever since your daughter, Celinina, beat her and made her cry, she's been hiding in her room. She hasn't gone out for almost three days."

Saluzzo said this, looking at Salvadore with a hint of ridicule.

But Salvadore laughed out loud.

"That's because Cellinina is so powerful. If she loses the fight, she can't blame anyone..."

"Of course I know that."

Saluzzo shook his head. Coming from the Syracuse of the past, he naturally understood this.

It was a fair competition. In fact, considering the environment and other factors, my granddaughter had the advantage.

But even so, she still lost to Celinina.

No one can be blamed for this matter.

"That's it... Let's leave the younger generation's affairs to the younger generation."

Salvadore smiled and spoke lightly.

But such words aroused Saluzzo's curiosity.

"Speaking of which...where's your granddaughter? Lappland has always been looking forward to fighting her again..."

"She..."

Salvadore was silent for a few moments, then smiled.

"She found a good teacher."

"Ok?"

"Let's talk about this later when we have time... What about you? When do you plan to retire and pass your position to your son?"

Salvadore raised his eyebrows, his expression somewhat expectant.

But Saluzzo suddenly jumped up.

"Bullshit, there's no way I'll retire earlier than you!"

"Then you'll have to endure for another ten years~"

Salvadore smiled, his voice still strong.

He really planned to hold on for another ten years, waiting for Cellinina to grow up before letting go.

After being anxious for a while, Saluzzo couldn't help but look depressed.

"Sometimes, I really don't understand where you get so much energy from... We're all almost seventy years old, but you look almost the same as when you were forty..."

"When I was forty, I could still finish a whole beef thigh by myself." Salvadore noticed the change in his old friend's mood and slowed down his voice.

He lowered his eyes, thinking about the past.

However, they didn't have much time to reminisce and lament. Soon, everyone began to notice the unusual black fog in the surrounding environment.

The family heads looked at each other, stood up in tacit understanding, and walked towards a secluded room.

In just a moment, another group of people came up and sat in their original seats, wearing similar clothes to them.

Nothing seems to have changed...

……

In a hidden room, twelve family representatives—either the heads of the families or people trusted by the heads of the families—took their seats one by one.

Around them, eleven black wolves appeared, symbolizing their rights.

As always, Rob, who belongs to the Texas family, still did not show up.

But obviously, the wolf lords were already accustomed to this eccentric companion, so they didn't say much. They just looked at each other and stood quietly aside.

The host of the banquet, the head of the Saluzzo family, stood up at this time.

"Since everyone is here, then... let's not waste time talking."

There was no unnecessary greetings. Everyone in this meeting had only one goal.

He looked around at the other family members who all had their own ulterior motives, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Regarding the Losoloya family's previous proposal, does anyone have any additional comments?"

"..."

The meeting was completely silent.

"It seems we have reached a rare consensus."

Saluzzo shrugged, not surprised at all.

But at this time, the head of the Bellone family suddenly raised his hand.

"I quit."

"Um?!"

As soon as these words came out, it immediately caused an uproar.

All the family members looked at each other in surprise, somewhat confused.

We had clearly reached an agreement with great difficulty, but why did the other party go back on their word?

"The Losoloya family still hasn't responded to the attack, so we naturally won't help those who want to kill us."

The representative of the Bellone family is the head of the Bellone family, Bernardo.

He stared coldly at the representative of the Losoloya family sitting opposite him with an unfriendly look.

When everyone heard his explanation, they understood.

Everyone has more or less received some information about what happened yesterday.

I can also understand the other party's indignation at this time.

but……

"At this time, personal emotions should not be placed above family, Belo ne."

An old man knocked lightly on his desk, with a hint of knocking in his words.

But Bernardo was determined to target the Losoroya family at this time and still gritted his teeth.

"Maybe one day, I can put a gun to your child's head and make you honestly continue to complete the construction of Syracuse Commercial Street with us."

"As I recall, you only have that one heir left now, right?"

Bernardo's attitude was very tough, and his words surprised everyone.

They had never seen Bernardo pressing so hard.

On the contrary, Salvatore on the side looked at the other party for a few times, and in his mind, he recalled the information he saw before entering the banquet, and couldn't help grinning.

Obviously, the other party should know that the person has returned.

For Bernardo, the younger head of the family, he may not know what the name Maria means.

but……

Salvatore turned his head and looked at the silent Wolf Lord over there.

This wolf called Zaro was an extremely conceited one in the wolf pack, but now he has become quiet.

obviously.

It has made its own decision.

This is indeed a wise choice.

At least, he didn't recommend anyone to become an enemy of Maria.

And now what they want to talk about is all about the Gray Hall, and the owner of the Gray Hall is the Sicilian lady who has a good personal relationship with Ms. Maria.

If a fight really breaks out, the family will definitely be one-sided.

Salvador Ray naturally knew this.

But he still wanted to attend the meeting to express his intention to fight against the Gray Hall...

Of course, it's just a statement.

The purpose, of course, is to better divide up the resources left after the demise of these families.

At the meeting, the quarrel broke out again.

Seeing how tough Bernardo was, several family representatives had no choice but to turn and look at the Losoloya family nearby.

I hope the other party will give in.

You know, the action against the Gray Hall concerns the fate of the entire Syracuse family.

Naturally, they will choose to unite all the forces that can be united!

but……

"We have nothing to say about what happened back then. The Losoloya family has their own plans."

The representative of Losoloya spoke up, and his words were not one bit less than an inch.

This gave everyone a headache.

Salvadore on the side smiled.

After thinking for a moment, he knocked on the table lightly.

As soon as he took action, everyone gradually quieted down.

Although everyone has different positions and represents different interests, no one would doubt the head of the family who did not even have his own Wolf Lord present.

"In that case, then... Bellone, your family should withdraw from this plan..."

When these words were spoken, the other families all frowned.

But fortunately, Salvadore had not finished speaking.

"But... even if you withdraw, you still have to contribute to this operation... Regarding the expenses of the other families' operations, you will be fully responsible. Is that okay?"

Salvadore's voice was not loud, but he offered a solution.

Now that the war is imminent, it is definitely impossible for the Bellone family to withdraw just like that.

Even if you don't participate in the front line, you still have to do logistics.

As for whether other families will over-report their expenses... that is something they need to consider.

Although Bernardo was a little conflicted about this, he still gritted his teeth and agreed.

On the other hand, the Losoloya family raised their lips slightly, showing an expression of enjoying the show.

But unfortunately, Salvadore had no intention of letting them go.
