In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

She smiled again and looked at Maria.

Maria also turned her head after a few moments of silence.

"no problem."

As she spoke, her eyes glanced sideways towards a corner.

"I'm here, nothing will happen again."

Her lips moved slightly, but the words she formed were different from the syllables she uttered.

This is a warning.

Maria is warning the wolves that are watching.

'Don't move.'

Chapter 110 Dinner

The social aspect of the ball quickly and quietly ended.

The surging crowd split into two and sat down silently on the long table.

As the inviter and the representative of the Colombian Sicilian family, Mrs. Sicily undoubtedly sat at the top position.

On her left, where Solo, her family member, should have been, sat Maria, a stranger to everyone.

On the right is Salvadore, the patriarch of the Texas family who does not have the qualifications.

Solo was now sitting at the farthest seat, below Mrs. Sicily.

Such an arrangement obviously has ulterior motives.

But as for the other family members, they did not make any rash judgments, but quietly lined up next to Maria and Salvatore according to their positions.

It is worth mentioning that the thugs they brought from the family were not qualified to sit at the table, but Mrs. Sicily still arranged a table next to their main table for them to sit.

It can also be regarded as a witness to everything.

After everyone entered, the polite waiters quietly served them dinner and began to pour wine one by one.

After they were done, they returned to the shadows, closed their eyes, and pretended not to hear or see anything.

"Everyone..."

Mrs. Sicily raised her glass and faced everyone.

"Thank you for accepting my invitation. I heard from my friends that something unpleasant happened at the dance party just now, but I believe that the unpleasantness will eventually pass. In Columbia, a vibrant and prosperous city, more opportunities are waiting for us..."

The Sicilian lady was not young after all. She quickly took control of the entire evening. After signaling to everyone, she even clinked glasses with Maria and Salvadore next to her as a gesture of friendship.

But everyone knows that this is just the beginning.

The main course hasn't arrived yet...

Soon, the meal began.

But what made them different was that no one spoke at this time, whether it was Sicily who wanted to take back the winery, or Texas who wanted to be compensated.

It was like they had started a sit-down war, each waiting for the other to lose patience first.

Everyone understood that it was difficult for each other to make concessions. If the issue could not be resolved at the dinner table, then it could only be discussed during the battle.

Obviously, this is a scene that the Texas family does not want to see.

After a moment of silence, Salvadore turned his head to look at Mrs. Sicily and raised his glass to show his goodwill.

"What a delicious drink! It brings back memories of the past... Did you bring this from Syracuse?"

"Of course, the weather in Syracuse isn't great, but when it comes to brewing wine, I think it surpasses all the countries above Terra."

"That's great... I wonder if Popolo Winery can also produce such nostalgic wine. I'm a little reluctant to drink it."

Salvadore spoke with a smile, and Lady Sicily smiled back.

"If you like, I can have someone prepare some for you... so you and your family can enjoy it together."

"Thank you, but that's not necessary. This would be a hassle for you, and most of my family is from Colombia. They might not be able to appreciate the flavor of such a strong liquor."

When the two of them said this, they fell silent at the same time.

They stared at each other, both sides having attitudes.

"Speaking of which...when did the Texas family own a winery? I've never heard of that."

Lady Sicily attacked first, but Salvadore just smiled.

"I just inherited it from a friend recently...it was a pleasant surprise."

"Then...what does the Texas family plan to do with it?" Mrs. Sicily avoided asking how the other party acquired it and turned around to ask what they planned to do after getting the winery.

"A winery is naturally for winemaking. It just so happens that the Texas family is currently lacking a major business line. Perhaps its existence can fill the gap in the family at this time."

"Really?" Mrs. Sicily remained noncommittal.

"But Popolo Winery's share in Colombia wasn't huge originally, so if we want to grow it, we'll need a massive investment."

"So, Lady Sicily, are you willing to offer us a little friendship?"

Salvadore was like a sticky candy. Even though Mrs. Sicily hinted at him several times, he remained unmoved.

He can accept other families joining, but their Texas family must have the dominant position in the winery!

For this reason, he even looked at Solo a few more times.

He knew clearly that the Sicilian family would not watch them eat this cake... He also knew that he absolutely did not have the ability to eat it.

But unlike the Sicilian family who insisted on independent development, their company only has zeros and ones.

Either full authority or nothing.

But he was very open.

He is willing to donate part of his business to other families to strengthen the ties between them.

The only requirement is that the control of these enterprises must be in our own hands!

Make sure they get the biggest piece of meat while everyone else profits!

He wanted to ensure that, under the same circumstances, the Texas family would develop the most, and in the case of imbalance, the Texas family would still have the ability to catch up!

If it were before, even if he was willing to share the shares of the winery, not many people would be willing to take the risk of offending the Sicilian family.

But at this moment, after Solo took action, everything was different.

Some families have begun to worry about the powerful Sicily... Even if Lady Sicily wants to cooperate, they have to consider whether they will be completely taken advantage of by the other party.

The reason for all this was the customs they brought with them from Syracuse.

Only zero and one!

On the contrary, the Texas family that started in Colombia was supported by a cooperative route from the beginning, and their image has been deeply rooted in everyone's eyes.

They are willing and believe in the Texas family's invitation to cooperate!

As long as he can continue to push the plan forward, he will be able to take the initiative!

Even if Lady Sicily really wanted to launch a purge, he was confident that he could use the winery's shares to rally a group of people to fight against her.

The Sicilian family has dominated Colombia for too long!

Although they all came to Colombia defeated, it does not mean that they will choose to surrender to anyone.

Of course, if possible, Salvadore still hopes that Mrs. Sicily can agree to his application and buy shares, which can save everyone a lot of trouble.

but……

"Thank you for your invitation, but... the Sicilian family doesn't understand the so-called cooperation model. As you know, we are always wary of unfamiliar things."

Mrs. Sicily spoke calmly, and Salvadore raised his head with a smile.

“那… … “A loving thought?”

“I want a winery.”

"...Do you want to buy Popolo from us?"

“It’s not an acquisition, it’s an exchange.”

Mrs. Sicily raised her head calmly and looked at Salvadore in front of her.

A repressive atmosphere gradually spread.

Solo, who had been silent all the time, seemed to understand what Mrs. Sicily meant and frowned decisively.

"no!"

"Uncle Solo, I think the family asked you to come here to visit me, not to manage me, right?"

Mrs. Sicily suppressed the other party with just a calm glance.

After seeing him sit back with a grim expression, Mrs. Sicilius looked at Salvadore again.

"I heard that the Texas family still doesn't have its own territory to this day, right?"

"For a family, this can be described as wandering... It's somewhat inappropriate."

“I personally have a piece of fertile land in East Columbia that I had just cleared. I was thinking of using it to grow grapes, but after careful consideration, I decided that a winery was more important to me.”

“Perhaps this price is good?”

Mrs. Sicily stared at Salvadore in front of her.

This was the highest stake she could offer. If she went any further, she would have to use up the family's wealth.

Salvatore was also frightened by the generous behavior.

For the first time, a hint of uneasiness appeared on his face.

Although very restrained, Maria knew that this was a necessary journey for a person who was crossing new horizons.

Should you focus on a winery that can obviously bring wealth, or should you establish a base for your family?

This is a choice.

Rob frowned on the side, obviously having some thoughts. He wanted to convey his judgment to Salvatore.

But the silent dinner knife suddenly fell beside his chair.

Rob was stunned for a few seconds, then looked up.

Maria continued to eat calmly.

Elegant manners.

Chapter 111 Something happened again!

"Thank you for your gift. Admittedly, compared to a winery, perhaps a stable home would be more suitable for us."

After not getting Rob's opinion for a long time, Salvatore gritted his teeth and made a judgment.

The winery may bring wealth to the Texas family, but obviously, a stable place is more in line with their current needs.

They needed a place to set up their camp.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Mrs. Sicily raised her glass and toasted the other party again.

Things have come to this point, and the result has basically been reached.

Despite the twists and turns, the Sicilian family still took over the winery, and the Texas family also gained a piece of undeveloped land, which was a considerable gain.

But for them, what is more meaningful is that they won some family friendships to exchange the winery that was acquired through illegal means for obvious land.

This was a result that satisfied everyone...at least, everyone present was quite satisfied.

After a long silence, Solo quietly stood up and left the venue.

"Sorry, I may have drunk a little too much and need to rest... Don't worry about me, everyone, please enjoy this banquet."

After seeing the other party's actions, Mrs. Sicily also spoke and stood up gently.

Maria stood up and supported the other person intimately.
