There were two relatively large sales channels for his flour. One was the large supermarkets, such as Carrefour and Walmart. The other was through the medium-sized chain supermarkets such as the supermarkets owned by the Morningstar family.The flour mill industry had relatively low technology content and there was also fierce competition.There were many big grain and oil brands such as Bertolli and Adolphus in Oskia. Their brands were relatively strong and so, their products were also selling relatively well.Moreover, there were also at least a few other local flour brands in every city.So, a small brand like his own would only be able to generate a certain amount of sales locally and his sales were very dependent on the sales channels.If the sales channels gave him more display positions and bought more of his goods, then he would be able to make more money.However, if the sales channels did not give him any display positions or buy any of his goods, then he would not be a

Lilian felt very lost and confused at this time.The thirty million dollar dowry was certainly very attractive. However, the main point was that she would have to ask her son to marry a pregnant woman.Wasn’t this what people would often refer to as fathering someone else’s child?Although she was not a young person anymore, she still had some understanding of these buzzwords.However, when she thought about the fact that Mr. Morningstar had already offered a thirty million dowry and that he was also offering various resources to support their family, then Lilian began to look forward to it deep within her heart.In her opinion, as long as he was willing to give them a lot of money, then it would not be a big problem for her son to father someone else’s child.However, the crucial point of this matter was that it would be easy for her to explain things to her relatives and friends if the other party was pregnant with an Oskian child. She could just tell her relatives and friends

“As for the flour resources in the supermarket, most of it would have to be allocated to my family. If they agree to my conditions, then we don’t even need to decide on any dates. After all, I’ve already set up a banquet here today and there are no names written on the wedding arch yet. You can just ask Mr. Morningstar to send his daughter over here and we can just hold the wedding here today.”After she spoke, Lilian smiled and said, “Madeline, their daughter is already pregnant so it would also be better for them not to delay this matter any further. The sooner, the better. In addition, Madeline, if you assist me with this matter, then I’ll also give you two million dollars as a reward!”The main reason why Madeline was so enthusiastic about running this errand was because Mr. Morningstar had already promised her that if she could find someone who would willingly accept his daughter and her baby, then he would also give her five million dollars as a reward.After all, Mr. Mornings

Mr. Morningstar felt a sense of relief after hearing those words.All his worries were due to the fear of tarnishing his daughter’s name, which would eventually affect her future happiness.Now, right in front of him was a good candidate to be his son-in-law. The most surprising part was that he didn’t even mind having an immediate wedding and was able to make an instant arrangement for it. This kind of guy was hard to find.Therefore, he gave it some thought for a moment before immediately answering, “No problem! Go back and tell your family, fifty million dollars! There won’t be a dollar less, don’t you worry. I will bring my daughter over immediately. We can organize the wedding ceremony on the groom's side first, and then I will invite my family and friends over tomorrow to organize the wedding on my side. Once the ceremonies are done, the wedding can be considered complete.”Madeline spoke excitedly, “Mr. Morningstar is the best! Being able to make big decisions so easily and make

Lilian waved her hands. “If he dares to disagree, his father and I will cut all ties with him! This is not the time for him to object!”After saying those words, Lilian paced toward Draco and Magnolia. With a cold and somber voice, she spoke, “Draco, I will only say this. If Magnolia cannot fork out thirty million dollars worth of dowry, I have no mood to even entertain the idea of marriage!”“Thirty million dollars?!” Draco and Magnolia shouted in shock!Draco couldn’t hold in his anger, and he blurted, “Mother, are you that poor till you’ve lost your mind? You just mentioned ten million, and in the blink of an eye, you’ve changed it to thirty million. Where in the world is Magnolia’s family going to get that crazy amount of money?! Even our family can’t fork out that much!”Lilian grabbed Draco’s sleeve and spoke, “Come with me, I have something to tell you.”She then proceeded to look at her husband and shout at the top of her lungs, “Old man Turk Scotson! Come here!”Mr. Scotson qu

After listening to the calculations, Mr. Scotson immediately made up his mind.He turned to face his son and spoke, “Draco, it’ll be a waste if you don’t pick this wife. Not only did they not request for a dowry, but instead, they are offering you tens of millions worth of dowry. This is an amazing chance!”Draco replied coldly, “Yes. It is very good indeed. It seems as though you don’t mind having a mixed-blood grandson.”Turk said without a shred of embarrassment, “After giving me fifty million dollars? I don’t mind at all! So what if it’s a mixed-blood grandson? For fifty million dollars, I don’t even mind if my son turns out to be of mixed-blood!”Draco snapped back, “Stop wasting your saliva. I am not agreeing to the wedding.”Turk sighed. His face was stern and his tone was firm. “My son. You’re really lacking in experience. You still don’t understand how things work. You’ve never experienced the pain of having no money. I really should have made you live a few days of suffering

It didn’t matter if Lilian had to break her relationship with her son, or that Turk had to cut all ties with his flesh and blood. As long as they were able to force him to do what they wanted him to do, every sacrifice would be worth it.Draco exclaimed aloud, “Since all of you don’t respect me, I have nothing else to say to all of you. If you want to cut ties with me, so be it!”Lilian exploded upon hearing her son utter those words. She snarked, “This cold-hearted b*stard child! Even raising a dog seems like a better choice compared to raising an ungrateful child! You’re willing to disown your own family for the sake of that… that low-life woman! I can’t believe I wasted so many years raising you to be such an unfilial son!”Draco replied, “I’m sorry, mother. I don’t want to live the rest of my life being manipulated by you.”Turk exploded furiously, “You useless son! If you walk out on us today, you won’t be getting any share of assets from us! You’d better reconsider your actions!”

Charlie laughed after hearing what Turk had to say.Leave Hilton on a stretcher?This Turk truly didn’t know anything about this world.Nevertheless, for him, Charlie Wade of the Wade family, to attack this… this insignificant peasant… it was indeed a little undignified.Therefore, after much thought, the best way to solve this would be to give Albert Rhodes a call. Let him bring a few people along like that time with Kevin White. Then, he would just let the lackeys teach this husband and wife a lesson.Suddenly, a Rolls Royce drove up.Madeline, who had been silent all this while, suddenly jumped. “Oh! Mr. Morningstar is here!”As soon as she said that, Turk and Lilian tensed up.In their minds, they were hoping that Mr. Morningstar would have taken his own sweet time to travel to Hilton. During that time, they were hoping to solve the Magnolia issue. If push came to shove, they were going to pay her a few hundred thousand dollars as a reward for leaving their son.What they did not a

Helena waved her hand dismissively. "You don't have to. As you mentioned, procuring the hardware for the AI models comes with its own costs. I'd rather take a loss myself than let you suffer. After all, you're already of such an age, and having had a stroke once before. If you end up losing something and it affects your mood, leading to a relapse, wouldn't that make me the bad guy?" "No, no, no!" Harrison, ignoring the subtle mockery, hurried over to Helena with great urgency and reassured, almost desperately, "Buying the hardware for Your Majesty is something we should do. Please accept it." As he said it, he lamented with regret, "Your Highness, I'm old, and my mindset is molded in the conservative mode because of decades of experience, and bargaining is one of them. Nevertheless, please rest assured that we will never again bargain when doing business with you." After experiencing the powerful effect of the Healing Pill, Harrison keenly realized that the pill must be a life-sa

Harrison immediately caught the implication in her words and, with a smile, said, "Your Majesty, you are truly a brilliant negotiator. I've never seen someone so young yet able to control the pace of negotiations so skillfully! With you at the helm, the Nordic royal family is sure to soar to new heights!" Helena smiled and said, "You think too highly of me. I can control the rhythm well because I have a good mentor." "I wonder who your mentor is?" Harrison asked curiously. "I would like to meet him if there is a chance." Helena said lightly, "My mentor prefers to act with a low profile and isn't fond of the vanity that comes with fame, but I believe that you will have the opportunity to meet him in the future." "That would be wonderful!" Harrison replied with a beam. Helena then said, "It's getting late. I'll take my leave now." Harrison nodded. As he saw Helena turn to leave, he remembered something and hurriedly called after her, "Hold on, Your Majesty!" "Yes, Mr. Roths

Seeing Harrison with his head down in deep thought, Helena knew he definitely wouldn't follow the original plan to pass the position of family head to Julien. Sure enough, Harrison lifted his head with a chuckle and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to New York and attend my family meeting to establish the heir. Your presence truly brings us great honor!" Feigning a surprised expression, Helena asked, "Aren't we going to announce Julien's succession today? Why have you changed your mind?" Harrison waved her off and, with a slightly embarrassed smile, said, "Plans can't keep up with changes, and changes always outpace plans. Until this morning, I never imagined I could regain my health. Don't you think so?" Helena smiled slightly. "Your recovery is partly due to Julien's devotion, which seems to have touched God himself." Despite what she said, she couldn't help mumbling under her breath, "Harrison really did change his mind,

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
