Although Yahiko was agitated, he dared not oppose the police’s order.He was a businessman after all. He knew very well that if he was involved in an international diplomatic crisis that affected Japan’s international reputation, the Japanese people would definitely see him as a sinner who had tarnished Japan’s image.If that happened, the people would spontaneously boycott the Ito family, which might turn the Ito family into a target of public criticism.In that case, it would be better to cooperate actively and clear some ties while he was at it.Hence, Yahiko got up from the bed reluctantly, got changed, and opened the door.He was annoyed, but he understood the stakes involved. Either way, he hadn’t done anything wrong. So what if he was brought to the police department for another round of questioning? He didn’t even mind staying there for a few days.Therefore, he urged Hiroshi, “Start the car, we’ll leave in a minute!”Hiroshi nodded, turned around, and went to make the

Yahiko never thought that he would be in danger before his convoy lost control and crashed into the roadside guardrail because he was protected by the entire Koga ninja clan.It could be said that the Ito family was the only one among the big Japanese families whose ninjas had not suffered any injuries or battle attrition.The young adults of the Fujibayashi family had been almost wiped out, and the Iga family had lost half of their manpower.However, Yahiko’s biggest oversight was that he had taken his trip too lightly.In his opinion, he was going to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to be questioned and to cooperate with the investigation. In fact, there were police officers driving in front of his convoy. He figured that no one would try to attack him on his way to the police station.Because of this, he didn’t arrange too many ninjas to protect himself.Never in his wildest dream did he imagine that Yoshito was one step ahead of him and had coerced and blackmailed the

Afterward, Yahiko hurriedly urged Hiroshi, “Hurry, call the police now! Tell them to send a helicopter over! I’m afraid our bodyguards and ninjas won’t last too long!”When Hiroshi saw that the six ninjas had already rushed over to them, he quickly took out his phone to call the Tokyo Police Department.Although Tokyo had been in a mess for the last couple of days and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department’s efficiency and ability to solve cases was in disarray, their hardware configuration was still very powerful, with a variety of helicopters on standby which could quickly dispatch special operations teams to the scene in case of an emergency.Hiroshi called the Superintendent General directly. After all, Yahiko was one of the top entrepreneurs in Tokyo to which the police department paid high respect. Hence, they could communicate with the Superintendent General directly on everything.At this moment, the Superintendent General was on the verge of collapse when he had learned

Yahiko had already thought that he was going to die today. The special operations teams had yet to arrive, his men could not hold on any longer, and he might be killed by the enemies at any time.The driver and Hiroshi, who had no real combating skill, would very likely be killed by the ninjas as well.At this moment, he desperately wanted to call his daughter in Kyoto. Kyoto was hundreds of kilometers away from here, Nanako must not know that he was in a deep slump. He was hoping that if he made a quick phone call to her and heard her voice before dying, it could be considered a little comfort right before death.However, just as he pulled out his phone and was about to call Nanako, Hiroshi urged, “Ito-san, if we don’t run now, it will be too late!”Yahiko growled in exasperation, “I’ve told you, we’ve got nowhere to go…”Then, he said through his gritted teeth, “It must be Takahashi Machi’s doing! That b*stard! Jerk! How dare he use such insidious attacks against me!”Hiroshi

Hiroshi sighed before he turned his head and told the driver, “Mr. Yamamoto, let’s jump out together later!”The driver wiped his cold sweat off before he nodded and said, “Okay! I will do it together with both of you!”At this time, the two ninjas working for Yahiko were already on the verge of death!When Hiroshi saw that both of the ninjas could be hacked to death by the other party at any moment, he hurriedly shouted, “Mr. Chairman! Mr. Yamamoto! Now!”Yahiko quickly pushed the car door open on the same side as Hiroshi. At the same time, the driver also opened his car door as he prepared to get out of the car.However, the driver’s side happened to be right in front of one of the Iga ninjas. When one of the Iga ninjas saw that the driver was about to get out of the car, he rushed over to him and raised his ninjato before piercing the driver directly through his heart.The sharp ninjato not only pierced right through the driver’s body, but the tip of the ninjato also pierced d

Before he fell, Hiroshi’s words kept replaying through Yahiko’s mind.As long as he did not fall to the ground with his face or belly down, he would certainly have a chance to survive, then.Thus, he struggled to adjust his body when he was in mid-air, and he landed heavily with his legs hitting the ground directly first!After a loud crashing sound, Yahiko felt an incomparable sharp pain coming from both of his legs, but he could not be bothered to check for any injuries on his legs. Instead, he instantly did a couple of somersaults on the ground to relieve the impact of his fall from the highway bridge.Immediately afterward, Hiroshi also fell heavily to the ground. He fell in the exact same manner as Yahiko, and he allowed his legs to hit the ground first before rolling around.Although both of their legs were hurting to death, both of them managed to save their own lives because they had landed in the correct posture. At this time, Yahiko finally looked at his own legs and saw

The other two helicopters caught up directly with the two cars that the Iga ninjas were escaping in.Since the Iga ninjas were all on the highway bridge, there was nowhere for them to hide at all. They were simply driving away frantically as they tried to escape, but the helicopters were already approaching directly above them.Just as they were trying to escape with all of their strength, the special operations team on the helicopter shot armor-piercing ammunition directly at the front hood of the two cars.The penetrative ability of the armor-piercing ammunition’s projectile was extremely strong, and even military armor would find it difficult to resist armor-piercing ammunition, not to mention an ordinary commercial vehicle. So, after a few rounds of armor-piercing ammunition had hit the front hood of the car, the car engine was instantly damaged.After the engine had been damaged, the vehicle started to lose power immediately, and the vehicle speed slowed down until it finally

Yoshito never would have dreamt that the Schulz family would actually find him!As soon as the woman spoke up, he shuddered before he blurted out, “I have so many guards in my house. So, how could you have walked into my house just like this?!”Yoshito’s house had always been heavily guarded.After all, the stronger a person’s desire to harm others, the stronger the need to defend and protect himself.In order not to get ambushed by others, Yoshito had arranged for twenty bodyguards to guard his home, and some of these bodyguards were even ninjas who came from smaller families. So, his defense and security could be said to be very extensive and strong.Hence, Yoshito could not understand how this woman could get into his house and why he could not hear her movements at all?!The woman smiled indifferently before she said, “It does not matter how many guards there are. Wouldn’t it be fine if I just kill them all? Besides, there were not that many people to begin with anyway. Inclu

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
