Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 970
Heidi then continued, “Throughout my absence, I’ve been contacting several extremely powerful forces
from different countries. As was expected, all of them were very eager to get their hands on the
Ginseng King! You should’ve seen the prices they were offering us for it!”
“But didn’t you say that the price wasn’t an issue, mom? After all, getting it off our hands should be the
priority since all the Ginseng King has brought to our family is trouble! There are already a number of
powerful forces keeping a close eye on us because of it! Why are you still contacting so many buyers
instead of quickly getting rid of it?” replied Tulip in surprise.
“Pfft! Silly girl… Can’t you see what I’m trying to achieve? Contacting more foreign buyers will definitely
be beneficial for our family in the long run! See, once the buyers realize that other forces are also
aiming to get their hands on the Ginseng King, all of them will eventually end up fighting for it! With
each of the foreign forces being so powerful, the smaller forces in Heavenly City—who are also
targeting the herb—will most definitely fail to persist till the end once the foreign forces get involved.”
“To summarize, by involving foreign buyers, the Yowells will essentially—and eventually—force the
families in Heavenly City into sieges. Adding the money we’ll get from selling the Ginseng King into the
equation, we’ll surely be able to establish our family’s supremacy in Heavenly City in the near future! If
everything goes as nned, we’ll definitely seed in killing two birds with one stone!” exined
Heidi.
“I see… I understand your reasoning now! Once the foreign big guns arrive, the smaller forces in the
city who are also looking for the Ginseng King will definitely be forced to retreat!” replied Tulip with a
nod.
“I’m d you finally see the bigger picture. Regardless, I’ve decided that the Yowell family will be
holding an open auction for the Ginseng King in three days. When the timees, we’ll simply allow
the forces to fight among themselves while the Yowells profit from all of this!” said Heidi, a subtle smile
on her face.
Though Tulip’s father was essentially still the head of the Yowell family, Heidi’s position was simr to a
dowager’s. Though Tulips’s father wasn’t dead yet, Heidi usually had the final say regarding family
matters both big and small.
Heidi, for one, had definitely given it her all this time to be fully in control of matters regarding the
Ginseng King. The fact that she had been able toe up with such shrewd ideas proved that this
woman was very good at scheming as well.
“Since several of the forces will surely begin gathering here tomorrow once I publicize the auction, both
of you aren’t allowed to leave the manor in the next three days. You’re to help me receive our guests
instead. Do I make myself clear?” said Heidi as she red at Juliet.

The sisters simply nodded in response.
Before Heidi could say anything else, however, Tulip suddenly yelled, “Oh! You’re back, brother-inw!”
Hearing that, Heidi immediately red daggers at Gerald before scowling, “So, the trash is back! Once
this matter is done with, I hope you’ll disappear from my sight forever!”
After saying that, she turned around to walk upstairs again.
Gerald himself had earlier managed to get back in time to catch Heidi’s entire n.
He honestly felt that this old woman was extremely vicious since she barely sounded guilty for plotting
up a n to get so many powerful forces to fight among themselves. After all, Gerald was aware of
how feasible her n was.
The next day came soon enough, and just as Heidi had said, once news of the open auction for the
Ginseng King was made public, chaos was quick to ensue in the entirety of Heavenly City.
After all, it was needless to even talk about the immense economic value of owning the Ginseng King.
To think that the herb had been in the hands of the Yowell family this entire time!
Forces bothrge and small had received the invitation to participate in the open auction. Even several
underground forces were already showing up, resulting in all the hotels in Heavenly City getting fully
booked.
On that day, the entire city simply came to life like it had never before.
However, just as Gerald and Heidi had anticipated, bloody disputes were soon to follow.
It wasn’t even past morning when two local forces got into a terrible fight, resulting in both sides
suffering severe losses. Due to that, both the forces found themselves withdrawing from the auction on
the very same day they were invited.
Those, however, were only small fries. The two powerhouses that actually mattered in the Heavenly
City were the Sven Westmore Group and the Royal Dragon Group.
Sven himself—who was the boss of Sven Westmore Group—had yet to make his appearance up till
this point, which led many to begin specting that Sven must have encountered some kind of mishap.
Some wilder usations even suggested that he was already dead!
As a result, many forces who were initially affiliated to the Sven Westmore Group found themselves
eventually submitting to the Royal Dragon Group, the extremely strong and powerful dark horse.
Moving back to the Yowells, they had naturally been very busy seeing that they were the organizers of
the event.
For the venue of the event, the Yowells had booked Longstone Mountain Vi which was arge scenic
spot in Heavenly City. From the start of the first day, Heidi and her two daughters had spent most of
their time there receiving guests from all over the ce.
Several locals of Longstone City also came over to join in on the fun, all of them wanting to watch the
extremely grand-looking ceremony. After all, nothing simr on this grand a scale had happened in
Heavenly City for decades now.
“Aren’t there too many people, mom…? It’s going to be impossible for us to arrange for all of them to
stay in Longstone Mountain Vi! It’s simply too crowded already!”ined Tulip.
Tulip had even invited her ssmates over toe help them today.
“Have you already forgotten? I kept reminding you that out of all the forces who are attending, we only
need to make special arrangements and pay extra attention to eighteen of them! You don’t need to
bother about the other forces too much! Speaking of which, just in case you’ve forgotten, please
remember to make extra special arrangements for the two major forces in Heavenly City as well. I’m
talking about the Sven Westmore Group and also the Royal Dragon Group! After all, the Yowells will
still need to deal with them once the matter is over. Because of that, we absolutely cannot afford to
offend them at all!” warned Heidi as she turned to look at Tulip.
