Most people are born ordinary, but there are always some who, despite being born ordinary, aspire to greatness.
From an exploited undocumented worker to the godfather of the dark;
From those who obey the rules at the bottom of society, to the emperor behind the scenes who makes the rules;
The country belongs to the federation when the sun shines, but it belongs to me when the night falls!
"Sometimes, shadows can not only be as vast as light but can even cover it!"
"We never extort anyone, every penny we make can pass through our conscience."
If someone knocks on your door at night, they either bring my regards or brings the destruction for your arrogance.
As for what you will get, it depends on how you choose, my friend!

Empire of Shadows

"How many grapes did we get?" After a short rest, Lance asked the question that mattered most to him.


Elvin was a bit embarrassed, "The current grape suppliers aren't willing to sign long-term orders, they're only willing to sign for grapes that go to market in May at the most."


Elvin hesitated for a moment, "Ninety-nine dollars."


Lance shook his head slightly. Looking through the rear-view mirror, Elvin thought Lance found it too expensive, but before he could suggest trying to haggle, Lance told him, "Buy as much as they'll sell, and mix in some cash. Don't pay entirely by check."


"If they accept a lower price contract, we can give an extra five dollars per ton."


"I don't quite understand..." Elvin was unsure, questioning whether what Lance was saying matched his understanding.
