“Our Oskian ancestors would always think of how we can better ourselves. Even if we fight, we will only fight with ourselves—we fight with our past and present selves!”“The reason why we fight with our past selves is so that we can surpass our present and past selves. We want to improve ourselves in the medical field so that we can live longer. We want to improve our farming techniques so that we can feed more people. We want to improve our combat and fighting skills so that we can make ourselves better and stronger.”Having said that, Charlie looked at Nanako before he asked her, “If you are no longer allowed to participate in any more competitions from now on, will you give up on upgrading yourself or even practicing combat and fighting in the future?”Nanako blurted out, “Of course not! Even if I can no longer participate in any more competitions, I will never give up on combat and fighting!”Charlie smiled before he said, “That’s it. You love combat and fighting for itself, an

Charlie did not know what kind of look he had given Nanako.After all, he did not have a mirror at that time to look at the expression on his own face.However, he could remember his mood at that time.At that time, he had really felt distressed when he saw her constantly getting attacked and hit by her opponent.So, what Nanako had seen at that time should have been the distressed look in his eyes?As he thought about this, Charlie also felt a little embarrassed. He sighed as he said seriously, “Don’t be so silly in the future. You can go all out in the match, but don’t put yourself in a dangerous situation just for the sake of your own obsession.”When Nanako heard Charlie showing her some concern, she felt very excited, like a dainty and delicate woman. She nodded before she said, “I understand, Mr. Wade!”Charlie looked at her, and he could still see the bruises and scars on the corners of her eyes. At this time, he could not help but caution, “During the next match between

Based on the feedback, the sales of the Kobayashi Stomach Pill had already increased seven or eight times, which was already far beyond his expectations.According to these results, Kobayashi Pharma would definitely rise to the next level soon!At this point, Jiro felt pleasantly refreshed, and he could not help but drink a few more sips of the strong alcohol.After taking a few more sips of the whiskey, he felt a hot and burning sensation in his stomach. Immediately afterward, he felt some pain in his stomach.The expression on Jiro’s face changed slightly, and he immediately reached out his hand to take out a sachet of his own Kobayashi Stomach Pill.In truth, Jiro had always had a hidden stomach problem.He had a natural disposition and liking for good liquor, and he loved to drink strong alcohol. So, this had already left a negative impact and damage on his stomach.Last year, his stomach issues had become even more serious, and the doctor had advised him to stop drinking.

Jiro could not help but pay more attention to the matter when he heard his assistant’s words.He frowned as he said, “I also know of Quinn Golding. She is indeed a very beautiful woman who is also very good at acting. However, I never expected her to act as a spokesperson for our competitor this time.”After a slight pause, he said, “Why don’t you do this, then? Contact her agency and ask them how much it would cost for Quinn Golding to endorse our Kobayashi Stomach Pill instead!”His assistant nodded before he said, “Then, I will contact her agency early in the morning tomorrow.”Jiro replied coldly, “Do you still want me to wait until tomorrow morning? Contact them now! An agent’s cell phone is turned on twenty-four hours a day, and it is never turned off.”“Okay, I will contact them right now!”Jiro returned to his room, and he could not help but feel a little gloomy.He knew that in this era, no matter what people sold, what the competitors feared the most was the effect bro

Jiro did not take it seriously at all as he was consuming the Apothecary Stomach Pill.He felt that this medication would definitely be much worse compared to his own Kobayashi Stomach Pill. He would have to determine how much worse this medication was compared to his own Kobayashi Stomach Pill based on how he felt after taking a sachet of this medication.However, Jiro immediately frowned in the next second.After taking the Apothecary Stomach Pill, Jiro could clearly feel a very warm current in his stomach.The warm current felt like the spring rain which was silently moisturizing the earth without making a sound. The warm current quickly enveloped his stomach, and it brought about a very powerful and effective analgesic effect, giving him a very warm and comfortable feeling.His stomach discomfort disappeared completely because of this warm current, and his entire body felt very relaxed and comfortable!Jiro usually felt the same way whenever he took the Kobayashi Stomach Pill
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 1457
Jiro was truly angry and frustrated at this time.The Apothecary Stomach Pill provided the exact same kind of treatment as the Kobayashi Stomach Pill. This was an absolute benchmark product in itself.However, the effectiveness of the Apothecary Stomach Pill was much stronger compared to that of the Kobayashi Stomach Pill!Moreover, what was even worse was that the packaging specifications, the net content of the medication, and the price of the Apothecary Stomach Pill, were all the same as the Kobayashi Stomach Pill!This made Jiro feel very uncomfortable!The Apothecary Stomach Pill was much better compared to the Kobayashi Stomach Pill, but the quantity and price of the medication were exactly the same.Wasn’t this simply going to drive the Kobayashi Stomach Pill’s sales to a dead-end?!Also, with Quinn Golding endorsing the Apothecary Stomach Pill, this medication had suddenly become very popular in the domestic Oskian market. This was equivalent to completely cutting off th

His assistant replied in embarrassment, “Chairman, I do not know about that. The other party simply hung up the phone without allowing me to ask anything else in detail…”“What a b*stard!” Jiro replied angrily, “If that’s the case, we can only think of a way to deal with the Apothecary Pharmaceutical. In any case, I will have to buy over their patent formula no matter what it would cost me!”The assistant asked carefully, “Chairman, does the medicine work very well?”“It is super effective…” Jiro replied in a depressed manner, “It is at least ten times better than the Kobayashi Stomach Pill!”Jiro’s assistant was in shock. “Ten times? There is such a big difference?!”Jiro nodded, and he had a gloomy expression on his face as he said, “You should not allow this word to get out to the public. If we can get the prescription for the Apothecary Stomach Pill, we will be able to turn everything around and even take Kobayashi Pharma to the next level. However, if we cannot get our hands

The next day.Jiro left early in the morning as he headed straight for the Apothecary Pharmaceutical.After eating the breakfast made by his mother-in-law, Elaine, he borrowed his father-in-law’s car as he drove toward the Aurous Stadium.In fact, after Elaine’s attitude became even more docile, Charlie’s life at home had already become much more comfortable.Ever since Charlie told Elaine that he would give her a lot of money to take care of their children after Claire gave birth, Elaine began trying to please Charlie even more often now. At the same time, she was also constantly persuading Claire to give birth to a child as soon as possible.Although Elaine had already been married to Jacob for so many years, her cooking skills had never improved throughout all these years. After all, she was just trying to go through the motions with her husband and daughter.But now, Elaine was actually starting to study and read up on some cooking recipes on her cell phone. This was because

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man

Raymond had said everything he should and shouldn't and with complete sincerity exactly because Billy would never believe it.As Billy just wanted to swindle him, it didn't matter how sincere Raymond was—he wanted the 300 thousand whatever it took. The key here was that Billy had refused a better prospect when told it was possible, and there was evidence that would support Raymond if either he or Zachary realized the truth and came to start trouble.That meant Raymond had nothing to worry about—they could take this to the United Nations but he'd still win this case.Having been in the antique trade for so long, he had seen every form of oddity and was always cautious with people, considering every aspect of any issue.Hence, once he downloaded the security footage to his phone, Raymond decided that he needed to sell the bronze sculpture—not because he was in urgent need of money, but because he realized that there were those who wanted him out of Aurous Hill's Antique Street.Afte

There were those in Antique Street who made their living from swindling the average Joe while others swindled antique traders.In fact, it was already cliche for them to trick antique traders with forgeries, and it was not surprising that someone had tried their luck on the opening day of Raymond's shop.As such, it was strange that he had just started today without any hype or even a proper shop sign, but someone was already after him.That told him that he was being targeted, and Raymond was putting his money on Zachary.The sole reason for that was how Zachary had come earlier to ask Raymond about how much capital he had, and he had humbly said a few hundred thousand.The fact that Billy had come and immediately demanded 500 thousand made even more sense—he wanted to siphon all of Raymond's capital.Even losing money wasn't the worst part—the worst was being labeled as an amateur.When that happened, customers who wanted the good stuff wouldn't come to him, and he would find

Just as Jacob was celebrating fooling Raymond, getting his revenge, and earning 200 thousand on top of that, Charlie was left musing to himself on the second floor of the teahouse.He knew that Billy was a conman as soon as he saw him, but he didn't understand why Raymond would buy from Billy.Could the item really be medieval as Raymond stated?As soon as the thought occurred to him, Charlie was sure of it. Given Raymond's knowledge of antiques, there was no way he would mess up in Antique Street of Aurous Hill.While his father-in-law and Zachary had worked hard to weave this elaborate conspiracy, Charlie still wondered how they would take the news that Raymond had bought something worth millions for just 300 thousand.Meanwhile, Raymond watched as Billy left and locked the door from the inside before studying the bronze sculpture once more.He trusted his own judgment that it was a gilded bronze statue from the medieval era. He was playing down its importance since the bronze

Meanwhile, Raymond sighed unhappily. "I really can't afford four hundred grand—like I said, there's not much to offer here in my shop, which I've been investing a lot in. I'd have to pay rent to the owner soon as well, and everything would end terribly for me if I paid that much…"Billy blurted right then, "You said it's medieval and worth millions, didn't you? You'd make a fortune if you sold it!"Raymond sighed again. "Million-dollar antiques aren't that easily sold, and people would be especially skeptical with a small business like mine. I could sell it at an auction too, but that's only happening when someone decides to organize one, not to mention the troublesome appraisal processes it involves.""And right now, I just think it's medieval in terms of style, but I'm no authority in the matter. In the end, it's up to experts and specific groups that would verify it, and if I messed up, it's entirely my loss.""Even if I'm lucky and it's medieval, I'd still have to wait until th

"Invest?!"Billy was left dumbstruck at the term.What even was this fool up to? This definitely wasn't in the script! What about the questions he was supposed to ask? It was like sitting for a grade-schooler test and suddenly being hit with a bar exam!In the car, Jacob blurted out, "What the hell is that bastard thinking? Is he really going to pay 250 thousand?!"Zachary pursed his lips. "Maybe he's just throwing us bait. Think about it—if we took the deal, we'd have to leave a contact number.""After that, he would trick us and say he sold it for ten million and lure us in for the five million. We'd definitely show up, wouldn't we? Once we came, it might turn out that he has called the cops and would even produce\ the bronze sculpture as evidence. Wouldn't we be just shooting ourselves in the foot?"Jacob was left in misery, his face contorting as he pouted, "But you said the cops wouldn't get involved…"Zachary rolled his eyes, "Yes, they wouldn't most of the time since that
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6469
However, neither Zachary nor Jacob expected Raymond to confuse them further as he asked Billy, "If you can afford to wait, you can leave the bronze sculpture with me as a consignment. I'll only take 10% off the sales while you get the rest—how about that?"Jacob was stunned and asked Zachary, "What the hell is he up to? Did he get too deep into character?"Zachary shook his head. "I don't get it either… is he trying to keep the bronze sculpture to use as evidence against us?"Jacob frowned. "I thought you said there was a gentleman agreement in this business, and the cops won't really care anyway?"Zachary snorted. "He said he would keep it as a consignment, meaning that he won't spend a dime. What if he told all the antique dealers instead of going to the cops? He would prove that he's sharp, making a name for himself… and what can we do? Do we take back the bronze sculpture? Even if we do, can we really ask for it?'"Fuck!" Jacob swore. "Then what are we waiting for? Tell Billy
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6468
In Treasure Measure, even Billy was having a hard time understanding what was going on.Before he came, Zachary made it very clear that he was here to dupe Raymond Cole, and he had come.As such, his job was now to claim that this bronze sculpture which was made in the last century was actually from the Renaissance era and then sell it to Raymond at a cutthroat price.But now, Raymond himself was saying that it was medieval? What was that supposed to mean?Even as he was left confused, he blurted out, "Sir, if you say it's from medieval times… then how much is it worth?"Raymond thought about it and said, "It's quite an unpopular item, but it's not to say that no one would buy it or that no one likes it. The main issue is that there were plenty of wars at that time, and most bronze would be used for weapons. Copper production would be low with rationing as well, so bronze tools were naturally rare for civilians.""Gilding is common for better quality items, and from the northern
