In truth, that old fox, Cadfan, really had certain skills and abilities.He did not have to spend much money to pretend to save Rosalie this time. After all, the entire Japanese Self-Defense Forces were all actors who had agreed to play along with him for free.As for the reason why the Japanese Self-Defense Forces were willing to cooperate with Cadfan for free, this would have to be traced back to the time when Rosalie and the other masters from the Schulz family were arrested.At that time, Rosalie and the others had exterminated the entire Matsumoto family, putting the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to shame. After that, they had planned to make their collective escape from Osaka. At the critical moment when their plane was about to take off, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces had come forward, capturing all of them.Therefore, this incident had made the Japanese Self-Defense Forces rise to fame immediately.When people praised the Japanese Self-Defense Forces for th

He simply had to use his left and right hands to achieve success one way or the other. Furthermore, he had managed to greatly reduce the cost of getting the entire matter done. For the Schulz family, this was simply the best of both worlds.However, no one would have thought that there would be sudden changes to a meticulously and carefully thought-out plan.Even Lord Schulz was filled with excitement back in Eastcliff. He was looking forward to receiving news that Rosalie had already been successfully captured by the Japanese Self-Defense Forces.Just as he was anxiously waiting for the news, one of the high-level officers of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces called him directly.As soon as the phone call was connected, Lord Schulz started laughing gleefully as he asked, “Matsushima-kun, have you arrested Rosalie successfully?”“Arrest my ass!” The other party yelled angrily over the phone, “Why isn’t there anyone on the ship that you have arranged? Where is Rosalie now?!”Lord

The Schulz family, as well as the entire Japanese Self-Defense Forces, began searching for Rosalie’s whereabouts in Japan’s territorial waters near Tokyo.However, their search was completely pointless because the ocean was so vast, and they had no clues at all.As the Japanese Self-Defense Forces were looking for Rosalie frantically, the ship that Charlie was on had already left Japan.The ship was constantly adjusting its course as it headed in the direction of Oskia. After sailing for a night, they had already traveled about one-third of the distance.Early in the morning, the red sunrise appeared on the eastern sea level.Although the temperature at sea was extremely cold during winter, Charlie walked out to the deck dressed in casual clothing.The direction of the ship was heading from the east to west. So, Charlie stood at the stern of the ship as he watched the sunrise in the east.At this time, the red sun slowly rose, and another red and turbulent sun was reflected on t

Jasmine smiled before she stroked the hair behind her ears as she said, “I was actually feeling very tired, and I really wanted to sleep well. However, I couldn’t stand the bumpy and rough waves anymore. So, I came up to get some fresh air.”Charlie asked with concern, “You are suffering from seasickness?”Jasmine nodded slightly before she said, “Fortunately, it is not too serious.”With that, Jasmine walked toward Charlie’s side as she leaned against the railing and looked at the rising sun. After that, she said emotionally, “The sunrise at sea is simply too beautiful. This is the first time I have ever seen the sunrise at sea in my whole life.”When Charlie saw the hint of worry and nervousness between her brows, Charlie could not help but call out, “Jasmine…”Jasmine hurriedly looked at Charlie and asked, “Master Wade, is there something you want to say?”Charlie asked her, “Are you feeling troubled now?”Jasmine hesitated for a moment before she nodded gently and said serio

After a day and night of sailing, Charlie’s ship finally docked smoothly at the pier at Raventon.The ship docked at nine o’clock in the morning according to Eastcliff time. There was another hour and a half to go before Tyler and Reuben would convene the board meeting.That happened to be the flight time of the helicopter. So, Charlie would not be able to make it back in time for the Moore Group’s board meeting.However, although he would not be able to make it, he would be able to make an appearance at the press conference that followed.Jasmine, Rosalie, and a few crew members working for the Schulz family followed Charlie off the ship.In addition, the vice-chairman of Nippon Steel, Hashimoto Kazumi, who had been bound up, was also with them.As the helicopter whizzed directly toward Aurous Hill, Tyler stepped into the largest conference room in Moore Group.At this moment, more than a dozen shareholders and directors of Moore Group including Tyler’s son, Reuben, had already

If they continued waiting endlessly, they would not only be exhausting their patience, but the investors and stockholders’ patience would also quickly be exhausted.In that case, Moore Group would certainly suffer heavy losses.After thinking about it, all of them gradually consented to Tyler’s proposal as they believed that the best solution at this time would be for them to elect a formal chairman as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.So, someone spoke up, “I support the decision of the acting chairman.”“Me too!”When Reuben saw this, he was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said, “Why don’t we express our views on the spot, then? There are seventeen people present here today. As long as there are more than eight people who agree to elect a new chairman, we will formally pass on the appointment of the acting chairman and propose to start the new voting process.”Having said that, Reuben stood up and said, “I am the first to agree to the proposal to elect a new chairman.”

The father and son, Tyler and Reuben, were both very displeased when they heard Xavier’s words!After all, the father and son’s true purpose was to kick Jasmine out of Moore Group’s board of directors forever.Regardless of whether Jasmine was dead or alive, they did not want her to have anything to do with Moore Group’s board of directors anymore.However, even though Jasmine had already been missing for so many days, there were still people on the board of directors who were thinking about her.Furthermore, Xavier’s words quickly resonated with the others.Everyone started speaking up, one after the other, as they expressed their agreement with Xavier’s point of view.Tyler and Reuben did not dare to say anything at all.After all, the other members of the board of directors did not know that they were the ones who had tried to harm Jasmine.They were also displaying a very regretful attitude at this time, as though they had no choice but to re-elect a new chairman for the sa

As he spoke, Reuben immediately raised his hand and said, “Since you want to vote, I will set an example for everyone. I hereby recommend Mr. Tyler Moore as the new chairman of the Moore Group, and I give him my vote.”Tyler smiled slightly at this time as he said, “Since everyone in the board of directors has the right to vote and be elected, I will also vote for myself, then! I believe that I will definitely be able to lead Moore Group to overcome all difficulties and reach even greater heights and glory in the future!”After that, someone else immediately stated, “I vote for Mr. Tyler Moore too!”“Count my vote too!”Reuben said indifferently, “If that is the case, Mr. Tyler Moore will have already received four votes. All the others here should hurry up and vote too!”The others murmured to each other for a while. When they saw that Tyler had already gained control over the situation, and since this was a real name voting system, there would be a risk of settling the score eve

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

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
