Under Liam’s overall management and supervision, the production line of Kobayashi Pharma ran in full force and quickly produced the finished product of Apothecary Stomach Pill.Charlie came to Kobayashi Pharma’s production base in the suburbs of Tokyo and personally did the quality test to make sure that there was no difference between the newly produced Apothecary Stomach Pill and the ones produced in Aurous Hill. Then, he instructed, “Liam, you must make sure that the production line in Tokyo keeps at this constant speed and works overtime to produce a large number of finished products quickly.”“Okay, Master Wade!” Liam immediately nodded and asked, “By the way, when will our stomach pills be officially launched in Japan?”Charlie replied, “Don’t worry about the official launch. We have to debug the production lines in Yokohama, Nagoya, and Osaka, and then accumulate a batch of finished products. At the same time, we need to prepare the advertisement to be broadcasted all over Ja

The four men were covered in black equipment from head to toe. Black hats, black coats, black shoes, and even black gloves on their hands.Moreover, their black outfits were very different from any ordinary black fabric. Most black fabrics were just black in color, but the color of the material of their accessories was very thorough, like a black hole.In truth, the reason for such an effect was that a layer of ultra-black material with a very low light refractive index was attached to the outfit, which was called carbon nanotubes. Its reflectivity to light was only 0.035%, that was 3.5 ten thousandths. It was the blackest material created by mankind so far.In a poorly lit environment, the naked eye could barely see clothing that was coated with this kind of material, hence, this high-tech material was an excellent tool for ninjas who were good at concealing their whereabouts. Wearing this kind of clothing allowed them to increase their ability to conceal their location greatly.A

Meanwhile, two dark, silent paragliders were flying fast at an altitude of two hundred meters.This kind of silent paraglider used lithium batteries to operate the electric engine, so it did not produce the noise generated by the fuel engine when it was running.Moreover, the fan blades of the paragliders were very carefully designed to produce very little air noise when running at high speed.The Japanese ninja’s lack of strength was compensated for by modern equipment and technology, and this had always been the direction of development among them.In the early years, the Japanese ninja not only had to practice ninjutsu, but they also had to be proficient in chemistry as they had to formulate all sorts of bizarre equipment and weapons.On TV, it was often shown that when an ancient ninja dropped a ball on the ground, smoke was instantly ignited, and when the smoke disappeared, so did the ninja. This was not a dictionary scene, but a historical reality.The spheres used by the a

The leader of the ninjas observed his surroundings and saw that Aman Hotel was not far from the opposite side of the building, so he immediately ordered, “Number Two, we will land on the roof of Aman Hotel to monitor them. Number Three and Number Four, look for a suitable place to hide downstairs. Keep our target under our eyes at all times!”The voices of the three men immediately resonated over the intercom, “Okay, Senior!”The two ultra-black paragliders slowly lowered their altitude and finally landed on the roof of the Aman Hotel. Immediately after landing, the lead ninja contacted Takahashi Machi, Eikichi’s father.Machi was at the hospital now. His eldest son, Eikichi, was still undergoing surgery to implant plates in both arms. After the surgery, he would have to stay in a cast for at least three months to recover gradually.After receiving the call, Machi immediately asked, “Fujibayashi-san, how are things going?”The one called Fujibayashi-san was the leader of the four

At this moment.The Aman Hotel, Tokyo.It was one of the most luxurious hotels in Tokyo.Sophie and Jaime were staying in this hotel. The two of them stayed in the best rooms in the hotel, staying right next to each other. Each room here had three French windows that overlooked the whole night view of Tokyo, which was mesmerizing and breathtaking.Sophie had just finished her shower, and her short hair was very wet, so she combed all her hair back. It was hard to imagine that a woman with the slicked-back hairdo could be so beautiful with a dash of handsome vibe to it.After taking a shower, Sophie wiped her body dry, put on the silk nightgown she had brought from home, and walked over to the large French window with a glass of red wine.She gently leaned back on the recliner in front of the window, looking out at the night scene through the window, deep in thought.In her mind, Charlie’s face appeared again out of nowhere.Sophie was still a little agitated when she thought of

She was wearing a deep V-neck low-cut halter nightgown. It was very comfortable to wear by itself in her own room, but it was a little too sexy, so she had to cover it up.After the video call was connected, Sheldon asked, “Jaime, Sophie, have you two arrived at the hotel?”“Yes.” Sophie and Jaime nodded in unison.Sheldon asked again, “Have you met the Takahashi family?”“Not yet,” Sophie answered. “Originally, we planned to meet in the conference room of the hotel this evening to talk about the collaboration, but the Takahashi family encountered some accidents. Takahashi Eikichi was injured, and his father, Machi, should still be in the hospital with him.”Sheldon frowned and asked, “What happened? Will it affect our collaboration with them?”Sophie answered, “He was beaten up by a passerby, but the incident was a random blip, so it shouldn’t affect our deal.”“That’s good,” Sheldon said with relief. “You should go through the detailed investigation of both families and then p

Lord Schulz’s way of thinking was deeply influenced by his father.Lord Schulz’s father had fought in wars. The difference between the battlefield and business was that on the battlefield, you must fight to the very end in order to survive, so he implemented the same philosophy in doing business—he had to fight to the very end if they encountered opponents heads-on.In Lord Schulz’s eyes, choosing between the Ito family and the Takahashi family and eliminating the leftover were like there were two boats on the shore during a trip to the sea. Only one was needed to go to the sea, so what should be done?The commoner would choose any boat he liked and set sail on it.A wise man would select the one with the most comprehensive specification after detailed research.A brilliant and ruthless man would choose the one with the best overall performance and then sink the other boat before setting sail.The reason for this was that if one simply chose one ship to sail, the one left behind

The figure was the Takahashi family’s ninjutsu master, Fujibayashi Masatetsu.When Machi knew that he happened to be at Aman Hotel, he had asked him to spy on Jaime. As Party A and Party B were about to start negotiations on collaborations, it was best if they could know the other party’s bottom line and low prices in advance.Just like in a poker game, showing your hand was the worst thing to happen in a business negotiation. If you knew the other players’ cards when you were playing poker with them, you would never lose, and you would be able to get out of the game early if you had lousy cards.If you knew the other players’ cards, you would never be swindled, and you could see right through them if they were holding a small hand.The reason why you couldn’t make the most out of the game even though you had the biggest hand was that you couldn’t guess the other players’ cards, and you were not strong enough psychologically, thus, you would be scared by the players’ bloodlust an

Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"

While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav

Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma
