Two years ago, a big Japanese boss had bought a bluefin tuna weighing two hundred and seventy-eight kilograms, and he had paid a total of 3.1 million US dollars for it. The average price per kilogram was eleven thousand US dollars.If this kind of high-quality bluefin tuna was delivered to the top restaurants, the price would be several times higher.The price of eating the most expensive bluefin tuna in the most high-end shops was even more expensive than gold.As for the fifty-year-old Yamazaki whiskey, it was Japan’s top national whiskey, and a single bottle of this whiskey cost more than three million dollars.The fact that Yahiko was hosting a banquet using such expensive ingredients and drinks was already sufficient to prove the importance and value that he attached to Charlie.When Charlie entered the dining room, he saw that Yahiko had already been waiting there for a long time.At this time, there was a huge bluefin tuna that was placed in the center of the huge wooden d

As soon as he heard Charlie’s request, Yahiko replied without any hesitation at all. “Mr. Wade, preparing a boat for you is a trivial matter. I can prepare a luxury yacht for you at any time, and I can also make sure that you will be able to leave Tokyo by sea without any hindrances at all. I wonder, when are you planning to leave, then?”Charlie asked him, “How long would it take for me to return to my country by sea?”Yahiko replied, “Luxury yachts are generally larger in size, and large ships have high stability and strong resistance to wind and waves. However, their speed will be slightly slower, then. The average speed per hour is only about fifty to sixty kilometers. If you were to return to Aurous Hill from Japan, you will have to go through the Yaak River estuary in Raventon first. There is probably a distance of two thousand kilometers, and you will be sailing for at least thirty hours.”As he spoke, Yahiko said again, “However, since we are trying to smuggle out of the cou

After that, Albert joined in the call and said, “Master Wade, do you have any instructions for me?”Charlie replied, “It is actually like this. Both of you are people that I can trust fully. So, you have to keep everything that I am going to tell you next strictly private and confidential, and you have to enforce it strictly. Do you understand me?”Both of them replied in unison, “Don’t worry! We will keep this matter strictly confidential, and we will also enforce it strictly!”Charlie hummed slightly before he continued speaking, “Tyler and Reuben are about to usurp and take over the Moore family now. I want both of you to contact Tyler immediately. Just tell him that you heard me saying that Lord Moore is feeling a little unwell, so both of you would like to visit Lord Moore. I want both of you to pay close attention to Lord Moore’s physical condition and his personal safety.”“The father and son from the Moore family are going to usurp the Moore family?! Then, could it be that

Nanako was still in her senior year of university. She was twenty-two years old and she was about the same age as Aurora.As for Jasmine, she was about the same age as Charlie.Hence, Jasmine was four years older than Nanako.It was only reasonable for Nanako to call Jasmine her elder sister then.But Jasmine was still very flattered because of Nanako’s attitude.After all, Nanako was now the head of the Ito family, which was the largest family in Japan. The strength of the Ito family was about ten times stronger and more powerful compared to that of the Moore family.Even though she had such strength and power, Nanako was still so polite to Jasmine and she was even willing to call Jasmine her elder sister. Jasmine naturally felt very moved because of this and she felt a little closer to Nanako too.After all, women shared many topics in common. So, the both of them were chatting with enthusiasm very quickly.At this time, Yahiko had also returned. He greeted Jasmine politely b

Charlie suddenly thought of something and he told Yahiko, “By the way, Mr. Ito, I will have to trouble you to help me to do something else.”Yahiko hurriedly replied, “Please tell me what it is.”Charlie replied, “What is the name of the vice-chairman of Nippon Steel who was negotiating the terms of the contract with Jasmine before this? Is he called Hashimoto Kazumi?”“Yes.” Yahiko nodded and said, “His name is Hashimoto Kazumi!”Charlie sneered before he said, “I want you to send a few ninjas to kidnap him for me but they should not bring him here after kidnapping him. They can send him to the dock directly and put him into the cabin. I want to bring this scumbag back to Aurous Hill!”Yahiko replied without any hesitation at all, “Okay, Mr. Wade! I will make the arrangements for you now!”Although Kazumi was a high executive in Nippon Steel and could be regarded as a man of high status and power, he was still far behind compared to the Ito family.He would usually only bring a

At this time, Yahiko and Shinwa continued exchanging a few words with one another before Yahiko got to the main topic.“Shinwa, there are two reasons why I invited you here today. The first reason is because I want you to have a taste of the bluefin tuna and a bottle of fifty-year-old Yamazaki whiskey.”Shinwa smiled slightly before he smiled and asked, “What about the other matter then?”Yahiko smiled and said, “Aren’t you looking for an opportunity to build a joint venture in Oskia? I will introduce you to a good partner, that is none other than Miss Jasmine Moore from Moore Group.”After that, Yahiko pointed at Jasmine who was seated at the dining table.It was only then that Shinwa noticed Jasmine.He was immediately stunned.Shinwa was shocked and he said, “Moore…Miss Moore?! Isn’t it reported on the television all the time that Miss Moore is still missing after the accident?! Why is…why is she here?!”At this moment, Yahiko said, “Miss Moore is my family’s distinguished g

If that was the case, then they might as well push both favors toward him directly then.Since he was going to take responsibility for these favors, then he should not be owing them for a long time anymore. Since any undue delays might bring about more trouble, he should just repay the favor before he left then!As he thought about this, Charlie told Jasmine and Nanako, “Jasmine, Nanako, can the both of you leave for a moment? There are some things that we men would like to talk about in private.”Nanako stood up without any hesitation at all as she smiled and said, “Jasmine, do you like puppies?”Jasmine nodded and said, “I like them!”Nanako smiled and said, “I have a few purebred Akita dogs at home and I also have six little puppies that have just turned two months old. They are really very cute. They are being raised in the east yard. Do you want me to bring you to see them?”Jasmine replied excitedly, “That is perfect! Let’s go now!”“Okay!”As soon as he saw Nanako and Ja

Charlie looked at Shinwa who had a look of excitement and eagerness on his face at this time. He tapped his finger on the table twice before he smiled and said, “Mr. Watanabe, I, Charlie Wade, would never say anything that I am unsure of. If I cannot cure you, then I would not mention anything at all.”Shinwa immediately felt extremely excited and he blurted out, “Mr. Wade! If you can really cure me, then I will certainly be willing to agree to any of your conditions!”Even though Shinwa was not as rich as Yahiko, he was still one of Japan’s richest men.Since he had already made so much money, earning more money had already long ceased to be his top motivation in life. His top motivation in life was to enjoy life.Ironically, when it was already time for him to enjoy life, he was already gradually losing the body that he would need to enjoy life.As a man, Shinwa had money, power, and status. However, he had lost his ability in that aspect. For Shinwa, this kind of pain was sim

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

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

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

Zachary couldn't help pointing at the screen and snapping, "Fucking loser! The more you feel pressed, the less you should be nervous! What are you thinking?! You're falling right under that bastard's trap!"Jacob was frustrated too, growling through his teeth, "Shit! I didn't think that bastard was a sly old fox. Fucking hell!"He then sighed, shaking his head. "Forget it, Zachary—I'm going home to pack my shit, and I'll depart for Dubai first thing tomorrow. Just handle that bronze sculpture for me and wire the money over."As he was about to get off, Zachary sighed in exasperation and apologetically said, "Sorry, Mr. Wilson… but it's fine! Even if this plan screwed up, just let me cook up another plan to destroy Raymond Cole!"Jacob ignored him as he strode out of the car, but that was when Raymond spoke audibly from Zachary's phone, "You can calm down. I'm not accusing you of lying to me. I just think that it's not Renaissance… Rather, it's medieval.""E-Early medieval…?" Billy

In Treasure Measure, Raymond unwrapped the red cloth around the bronze sculpture in front of Billy and the camera.There was a brief flash of surprise on his face, and it was soon gone.Still, he picked up the bronze sculpture, fiddling with it as he asked, "Do you know where it's from?""Yeah," Billy nodded. "A Renaissance-era sculpture. I think the base makes it obvious."Raymond looked up at him and asked in curiosity, "Are you sure about that?"Billy, presuming that Raymond had already noticed a catch, quickly said, "Well, the old man had an expert check it, and the expert said it was immediately obvious! To be honest, I want to sell it because the old man just passed away—gotta sell this baby before my brother goes for a garage sale."He had certainly added more details to the script, and Raymond nodded as he said nonchalantly, "But it doesn't look Renaissance to me. Sculptures from that era—be it the craftsmanship or the unique attributes? It's quite different from this one

In the antique trade, items that raised eyebrows would only be shown in the evenings—when various shops were about to close.That was certainly the case in Antique Street, as most items arriving in the evening were either freshly excavated, stolen, or forgery used to dupe unsuspecting victims.Even if Raymond had started his career abroad, he had learned every last unspoken rule during his earlier stint in Aurous Hill.Seeing the wariness on Billy's face and the way he was holding something in his arms, Raymond knew right away that what he carried wasn't legal.Still, the antique trade was no different here than it was abroad.Tomb raiding, forgery, or adding some touch-ups that increased the value of an item—everyone across the globe pretty much played the same tricks, and Raymond had his fair share of experience.Still, he did not let his wariness show, instead grinning, "Yes, of course. Come on in—let's talk inside!"And with that, he quickly led Billy inside.Meanwhile, bot
