Upon hearing this, Sheldon’s sword-like eyebrows knitted slightly.Naturally, he was not satisfied with Yahiko’s plan.However, he knew very well that Yahiko just amputated his leg. To put it bluntly, the bloody scab of his wound was still fresh. At the moment, it was rather unrealistic to let him immediately push forward such a large project.Moreover, Yahiko’s daughter seemed to be very young, whose age was about the same as his own daughter, Sophie.Under such circumstances, it was indeed difficult for him to immediately make a decision and execute the project.Hence, Sheldon said seriously, “Ito-san, you should have a good rest and take care of yourself during this period of time. When you are discharged from the hospital, I will pay you a visit and discuss the collaboration in detail by the way. What do you think?”Yahiko nodded without hesitation and replied with a gleeful smile, “If Schulz-san visits Tokyo again, I’ll definitely wine and dine you when I get better!”Sheld

Sheldon nodded and said with a dash of arrogance on his face, “I hope the Tokyo Police Department and Homeland Security can understand this reason. There are times where necessary surgeries must be performed. Leaving cancerous tissues around will only drag down the whole city. Flying over here, I just did the favor by performing a precise surgical operation on Tokyo to remove the cancerous cells!”Yahiko nodded in agreement, but spat in his heart, Damn, this Sheldon Schulz is really outrageous and he’s getting more shameless as he speaks!Sheldon looked at the time and said with a smile, “Ito-san, since you’re still recovering from your wound, I won’t bother you anymore. These nutritional tonics that I brought you are made from excellent natural herbs and ingredients. Take them and ask your servants to boil them for you later; they can help speed up your recovery.”With that, Sheldon extended his right hand and said, “Since both of us have the intention of having in-depth cooperatio

When the elevator door opened, Sheldon took the lead and stepped out of it.When Charlie saw the elevator coming, he was about to gesture Nanako beside him to go in first. At this moment, Sheldon had already stepped out.Upon stepping out of the elevator, Sheldon and Charlie’s eyes met.At this moment, Sheldon subconsciously frowned slightly as a familiar yet ambiguous aura suddenly burst in his heart and made him nervous.As for Charlie, although he did not know the man in front of him, he couldn’t help but steal another glimpse at him after seeing the man’s eyes full of wariness and surprise.The man, in his early fifties, had an ordinary look and figure but dressed very lavishly. There was a dash of hostility over his brows, indicating that he was a ruthless and vicious person.Their encounter happened within a blink of an eye.Since Charlie was with Nanako, he did not pay too much attention to the man. After brushing against him, he entered the elevator with Nanako.When th

Since Curtis had a fiancée yet unmarried, Helen felt a ray of hope and was unwilling to give up, hoping to marry Curtis.This humiliation was vivid in Sheldon’s memory as the woman that he had proposed to did not only rejected his marriage proposal but also announced publicly that she was still waiting for another man. Ever since then, he hated Curtis to the core of his soul.Not long after, Curtis got married in Eastcliff.That night, Helen cried devastatingly and then refused to leave the house for a month.Every day, Sheldon would go to the Dunn residence with flowers to see her, and it went on for thirty-nine days. With thirty-nine roses, he finally won Helen’s heart.Helen, who had lost nearly twenty pounds, walked out of her room and out of the house. She said a sentence to Sheldon, who was holding a bouquet of roses outside the door.She asked Sheldon if he was still willing to marry her if she might not be able to forget Curtis for the rest of her life.Sheldon agreed

While going up in the elevator, Charlie was still thinking of the man he met at the elevator lobby earlier.He was sure that he did not know the man, but why did his eyes contain hostility as soon as he saw him?He originally thought that the man was a reclusive expert who saw something unusual about him. However, on second thought, he felt something was not right because the man did not have the aura of a strong person. From the point of view of his strength, he seemed like an ordinary person.Nevertheless, he did not think too much about it. After leaving the elevator, Nanako dragged him to the ward where Yahiko was.At this moment, Yahiko, who was lying on the hospital bed, was cursing at the top of his lungs. He said to Emi, “Sheldon Schulz is really hypocritical son of a b*tch! I will be on pins and needles if I spend one more second with him!”Emi nodded and said, “Indeed. Sheldon always gives people a very sinister feeling. Moreover, his so-called friendly smiles send c

Unfortunately, even with his great ability, it was impossible to turn back the clock.He could only hope for their next encounter.At the moment, he pledged from the bottom of his heart, Sheldon Schulz, if I have another chance to meet you face to face, I’ll definitely not let you off the hook!***When Charlie returned to the ward, Yahiko asked in astonishment, “Wade-san, do you know Sheldon Schulz? Or do you share some kind of connection with him? Why do you seem sensitive toward him?”Both Emi and Nanako also looked at Charlie curiously, expecting his answer.Seeing this, Charlie smiled and said in exasperation, “Have you forgotten? I inadvertently rescued his children, and he is so rich. Logically he should have at least given me 10 billion dollars as a reward, right? However, never did I imagine that guy would just turn around and run…”Yahiko was immediately dumbfounded.He did not find Charlie’s words skeptical at all, because, in his eyes, Charlie was nice overall excep

Charlie simply smiled at Nanako’s remark and did not say anything.After chatting with Hiroshi for a while, Nanako said apologetically, “Tanaka-san, Charlie-kun will be going back to Aurous Hill tonight. I have to accompany him to do some shopping, so we’ll leave now and I’ll visit you again tonight!”Hiroshi hurriedly said, “Miss, please go ahead with Wade-san to run your errands. You don’t have to particularly come and visit me. It’s too much trouble for you!”Nanako smiled and said, “No, it’s no trouble at all. We’ve known each other for so long, there’s no need to be so courteous.”Hiroshi nodded gratefully, then looked at Charlie and said seriously, “Wade-san, I’m sorry that I won’t be able to see you off as you will return to Oskia tonight. I wish you a safe journey!”Charlie smiled faintly. “Thank you, Tanaka. Let’s meet again sometime.”“Okay, Wade-san. See you!”After leaving Hiroshi’s ward, Nanako accompanied Charlie to Tokyo Ginza.It had been a few days since he cam

The moment the ring went through the knuckle and onto her ring finger, Nanako’s eyes were already flooded with tears. She hurriedly lowered her head, so that Charlie could not see her current look.She liked Charlie very much, but she did not want to give him too much emotional burden.This was because, deep inside her heart, she knew that Charlie came to Japan this time and visited her in Kyoto not because of how much he liked her. Instead, he sympathized with her and felt sorry for her.She could understand Charlie’s feeling — the kind of empathy among martial artists.What is empathy?It is the emotion of putting yourself in the other person’s shoes and being able to empathize with them.This is like when a racing driver witnesses another racer, who is gravely injured or even perishes on the race track, in a car crash; his empathy for the victim must be stronger than ordinary people.Similarly, if a soldier sees his comrades or the other soldiers being injured or rendered d

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

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
