Charlie smiled as he said, “Mr. Koch, to tell you the truth, the gift that I prepared for Miss Jasmine not only exceeds ten thousand dollars, but it is definitely worth even more than your necklace.”When Dylan heard this, he was furious and said, “Where the hell did you come from? You actually dare to be so pretentious in front of me?”Charlie smiled before he asked, “What are you going to do if the gift that I gave is indeed more expensive compared to your necklace?”Dylan snorted coldly before he said, “There are so many people present here today and they can all be our witness then. If the gift that you’ve given to Miss Jasmine is truly more expensive than the necklace I gave her, I will eat that necklace on the spot.”Charlie clapped his hands and smiled as he said, “Very well, then. It’s a deal.”Dylan frowned before he said, “Master Wade, what are you going to do if the gift that you gave to Miss Jasmine is not more expensive as mine?”Charlie smiled before he said, “If my

At this time, most of the people present were feeling a little worried for Charlie. Although everyone knew that Charlie was very capable and had a lot of accomplishments in the metaphysics field, they really did not believe that Charlie would be able to compete with Dylan when it came to money. The strength of the Koch family was indeed even much stronger compared to that of any big families in the South Region. Based on the assets owned by the Koch family, Dylan was really very strong and powerful.This was because no one in Aurous Hill could possibly defeat Dylan.In fact, no one in the whole South Region might be able to compare to him at all.Moreover, the twenty million US dollars ruby necklace could already be considered the best amongst all other ruby necklaces.Even a diamond that was the size of an egg might not even be worth that much.Thus, everyone could not help but wonder what could possibly be in the small gift box that Charlie had given to Jasmine that made him

Even Travis, who was sitting at the same table, was shocked and speechless!He was the richest man in Lancaster, and he was not any worse off compared to the Moore family in terms of their net worth.Moreover, he had already reached old age this year, and he could obviously feel that his body and physical health was much worse compared to before.This was irreversible no matter how much money was spent.So, Travis also dreamed to have the opportunity to take a Rejuvenating Pill too. He would not regret it even if he had to give up one-tenth of his assets in exchange for a Rejuvenating Pill.This was because he knew that other than the Rejuvenating Pill, there was no way he would be able to gain back twenty years of his youth even if he was willing to spend several billion dollars for it.The Macau gambling tycoon, Stanley Ho, was very rich. He was extremely wealthy and powerful, but even if he had all that money, he had no way to buy back his youth when he was already over ninety
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1201
In Dylan’s eyes, the Rejuvenating Pill that Charlie had given to Jasmine was just some inconspicuous pills.Even if it was really the Acetum Bezoardicum Pill that had rocket high prices in the Oskian medical profession, the most expensive top-grade Acetum Bezoardicum Pill was probably worth only a few hundred thousand dollars.Moreover, so what if Charlie’s so-called Rejuvenating Pill was indeed the Acetum Bezoardicum Pill?There was still a huge difference between the pill and his ruby necklace which was worth nearly one hundred and thirty million dollars.Therefore, Dylan could not help but feel that he had already defeated Charlie.After Dylan said those words arrogantly, he was originally waiting to receive everyone’s praise. However, he really did not expect everyone to stare at him as though they were looking at a mentally retarded person.They could not really blame him because he was the only person at this birthday banquet who did not know the value of this Rejuvenating

Jasmine naturally had to step up and defend her sweetheart when she saw him getting ridiculed by Dylan.At this moment, Charlie smiled indifferently before he took another Rejuvenating Pill out of his pocket. After that, he laughed as he said, “Look! I have plenty of this. It is naturally impossible for me to take back the Rejuvenating Pill I have already given to Miss Jasmine as a gift. The Rejuvenating Pill that I am going to auction now is this one!”With that, Charlie stood up before he spoke to everyone around him, “I believe all of you already know what the Rejuvenating Pill is. I will not give any further introduction to the Rejuvenating Pill. Instead, I will simply start the auction right now.”When everyone at the scene heard that Charlie was really going to auction the Rejuvenating Pill, they had an incredulous look on their faces.This was a magical drug that they would never be able to obtain elsewhere. Charlie had never agreed to sell this Rejuvenating Pill before, so

Initially, Dylan thought that he would be the ultimate winner. He was absolutely certain that no one would be willing to buy this so-called Rejuvenating Pill for 150 million dollars, but he was terribly wrong. He didn’t expect Travis Lane to give him a slap to the face with his actions.He turned and glanced at Travis, astoundment and shock written all over his face as he asked, “Mr. Lane, what do you mean?”Travis knew that Dylan came from an impressive background, but the Rejuvenating Pill was too tempting for him to own even if he had to offend the Koch family by doing so.Who would miss this precious chance of getting younger by 20 years old?!Even the Gods could not stop Travis from bidding for the pill, let alone a mere Dylan Koch.He looked back at Dylan and said flatly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Koch. I’ve longed for Master Wade’s miraculous Rejuvenating Pill for a long time. Now that the precious chance is right in front of my eyes, I cannot let it slip from my hand. Please forgive

“270 million!”“280 million!”“290 million!”Graham immediately raised his hand again and shouted, “300 million!”The bidding was proceeding intensely. Someone would raise the price as soon as the other person finished his bidding.They increased the bidding price of 10 million at a time continuously in order to grab the Rejuvenating Pill.Soon, the whole scene had become very lively and chaotic. Even people with a net worth of only about 1 billion joined in the bandwagon and increased the bidding price because everyone knew that money was valuable, but longevity was even more expensive.Dylan felt that every time someone bid a price, it was a slap to his face.He had never been so embarrassed in his life.However, this was just the beginning.He was in a deep mess now, and he was wondering how he would walk out of here without embarrassing himself further.Did he really have to swallow the ruby necklace?At this moment, the bid was still ongoing, and it was very happening.
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1205
After Zeke bid 1.1 billion, Graham felt that he should raise the bar too, otherwise, he would lose this precious chance to obtain the Rejuvenating Pill. Thus, he gritted his teeth and said, “Since Mr. White has already bid 1.1 billion, I offer 1.2 billion.”Travis didn’t mind the competition though. He was richer than Graham and Zeke combined, hence, it didn’t make much difference to him even if it was 1.2 or 1.5 billion. He was determined to win the Rejuvenating Pill, so he said flatly, “If so, I’ll go straight to 2 billion.”The hall was rocked by the echoing sound of the audiences’ gawking.The auction price had increased from 1.2 billion to 2 billion! This was simply the most incredible and the most expensive auction anyone had ever seen.What was it like to have 2 billion dollars? If your monthly allowance was 10 million, you would have the same amount of allowance every month for 17 years.If you deposited 2 billion into the bank with an annual interest rate of 5%, your annu

The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em

Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.

Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b

Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi

Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ

Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex

Helena didn't give Harrison a chance to resist. She pinched his cheeks on both sides, forcing his mouth to open. Then, she poured the water containing the dissolved Healing Pill directly into his mouth. Harrison was so scared that the blood drained from his face. He wanted to kick and struggle, but he was trembling profusely and couldn't do anything. The thought of Helena trying to poison him gave him a chill to the marrow. He wanted to spit out the water, but Helena didn't give him a chance. While the water was still in his mouth, she threw the glass aside with her other hand, grabbed his chin, and lifted it up, snarling, "Drink it!" The moment Harrison's chin was lifted, his esophagus directly opened. The water, which was not much, went straight down his esophagus into his stomach, and he literally drank it. Harrison's eyes were full of fear at this moment. He thought that he might not even have time to say goodbye before he died. The next second, when he felt a different k

Harrison scoffed when he heard Helena's suggestion. He snapped angrily, "I-I-I have the best medical team in the world, and t-they don't even dare say such a thing. W-Who do you think you are?!" Helena smirked and replied, "Your team can't cure you, but I can." With that, she took out the Healing Pill that Charlie had given her from her purse and said to Harrison, "This pill comes from the ancient and mysterious East. Once you take it, you'll be restored to your former self. To alleviate your concerns, I can let you take one-tenth of it for free before we discuss terms so that you can truly feel its effectiveness. After that, we can discuss the pricing." Harrison, without any hesitation, disdainfully replied, "I-I would never b-b-believe in such a r-ridiculous pill! T-T-This b-bullshit has no scientific ba-a-asis at all!" Helena sneered contemptuously, "If you believe in science so much, why are you afraid of the Qing Eliminating Society? Can they possibly be a match for your

Helena pursed her lips, looked at Harrison, and then looked at Julien, pretending to be hesitant to speak. Despite his paralyzed body, Harrison was still as sly and smart as ever, so he looked at Julien and said, "Julien, clear the room. I want to talk to Her Majesty alone." Knowing that Harrison was trying to give him a boost, Julien immediately said, "Okay, Dad!" After that, he quickly asked the doctor to leave. Before leaving, he turned and said to Harrison, "Dad, you have all the time in the world. Please have a nice chat with Her Majesty. I'll ask everyone to keep a distance of 20 meters from the room. Please rest assured." Harrison nodded in satisfaction and flicked in the air at him twice, motioning for him to leave. Julien gleefully closed the door and promptly urged everyone to stay 20 meters away from the room, including himself. Seeing that the room was clear, Helena cut to the chase. As she looked at Harrison on the bed, she stated, "Mr. Harrison, the main reaso
