Chapter 792 Blake Bowman Strikes
“Mr. Lee, we also faced the same problem and we got a twenty million fine!”
“The Joestar family had it the worst! Multiple hotels of ours are flagged with hygiene problems and are forced to suspend operations for a month! The losses are immeasurable! Someone is trying to shut down our hotels!”
The three of them voiced their complaints to Kaze.
Their families were not as sizable as the top three families, so no one would target them on
purpose.
However, once the new mayor was sworn into office, the three families were fined and ordered to suspend operations.
They believed it was Blake who targeted them.
“Mr. Lee, please help us. Blake Bowman is after us for revenge! Please swap him out for someone else, we cannot afford to have him messing around,” Bernard said with a bitter look.
The other two nodded as well.
“If Blake Bowman ordered an investigation on your companies, that means something is wrong with your operations as well. Am I right?” Kaze asked with furrowed brows.
He had heard of Blake taking over Johnson’s position and believed what happened to the three families was also an act of revenge, but there should be a solid reason behind this.
Bernard and the others pursed their lips and looked guilty.
Their companies were by no means small, and it would be strange if their operations were healthy and squeaky clean.
They were fined and ordered to stop operating because there were underlying problems with their companies.
Kaze knew that he was right when he saw the guilt on their faces.
“There are rules to things. I might be powerful in the military but I cannot just meddle with local affairs, let alone swapping out the mayor. If Blake Bowman is acting according to the law, there is no reason for me to go after him either.”
The three of them were devastated when they heard Kaze.
“But Mr. Lee, Blake is not going to stop! Right after he was sworn into office, he removed his opposition and rivals. The first thing he did was dismiss the chief of police, Don Braders. Everyone knows that Don and Johnson were transferred here together.”
“On the way here, we heard that Dan Niners and Gold Tooth’s territories were raided by the police as well and many of their men were arrested. Right after that, the gangsters who sided with the Lee and Vinland families took over their territories.”
“The Bowman family also received a lot of gifts yesterday. Even their youngest baby received a house and a car! We didn’t show up or give any presents, that’s why he came after us!”

three of them continued to persuade Kaze to do something by telling him what happened.
They also warned him that Blake would not stop with them. He would soon go after Kaze and the five companies.
Their warnings came true after a phone call from Snow.
“Mr. Chairman, I was removed from my chairwoman position at Lilyrose Bank. Blake Bowman replaced me with one of his trusted men.‘
She told Kaze that the bank would soon go after the five companies.
Collection of debt, freezing of accounts, rejection of loans, and the like.
Right after Snow’s phone call, a commotion came from outside the lobby.
Kaze went out and saw Winnie arguing with a group of people.
“What’s going on?” he asked.
“Who the hell are you? We are doing our jobs. Don’t stand in our way!”
The leader glared at Kaze before he turned back to Winnie, saying, “Ms. Souffle, the business guild, the fire department, and the Ministry of Health organized this joint operation to check your company.
“Shangrila Group did not meet the requirements and you will be fined. The building must cease operation at once and cannot reopen for at least a month. You will be closed down for now.”
