Charlie smiled as he said: “Based on what I know, it seems as though the government and the opposition forces have already been in a deadlock war for a very long time. Moreover, their government is also short of money, food, weapons, and ammunition. They would also have inadequate training throughout the year, and they would certainly have very low combat effectiveness. Besides that, the government only sent a few soldiers over there to protect and ensure your team’s safety. In my opinion, that is basically useless. All of you are just unarmed and talented young people. So, if an accident were to happen, all of you would not even have the chance to escape at all.”Autumn replied a little hesitantly: “Well… I don’t think that it is that serious…”Charlie smiled as he said: “That is just your own assumption. If something were to truly happen, your assumption or opinion would not really matter at all.”As he spoke, Charlie suddenly remembered something, and he said: “I heard that merce

Autumn, who was far away in Syria, was indeed very tempted and moved after hearing Charlie’s words.During this time, Autumn and many of her classmates had encountered a lot of difficulties and dangers in Syria. Although they were lucky and fortunate enough to avoid all of these dangers by chance, every one of them knew very well that they were all facing very high risks simply by staying in Syria to continue filming the documentary.So, Autumn felt that if she could truly get the twenty million US dollars sponsorship from Charlie, that would be equivalent to a very great improvement to everyone’s personal safety, and it would be of great help to their filming expenses.As she thought about this, Autumn replied to Charlie: “Mr. Wade, why don’t we do this, then? I will bring up your proposal and suggestion to the people in my team and see what they think about it. If they agree to it, I will not have a different opinion.”Charlie smiled as he said: “That’s great! When will you guys

Yolden replied gratefully, “Charlie, thank you so much! You can rest assured that I will surely do my best to repay you when the time comes!”Charlie bowed slightly before he said, “Uncle Hart, you’re welcome.”After that, Charlie checked the time before he said, “Uncle Hart, you still have some classes on later, right? In that case, I will not disturb you anymore. We can continue chatting another day.”Yolden looked at his watch, and he hurriedly said, “Oh! I would have forgotten all about it if you did not mention it. I will have to conduct a class right away. Charlie, if you have nothing else to do, why don’t you stay in my office and wait for me, then? Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. We could have lunch together at noon after my class.”Charlie replied, “Uncle Hart, you must certainly be very busy with work. So, perhaps we could enjoy a meal together some other day instead?”Yolden waved his hand and said, “I might be busy, but I will always have time to rest. Besides, both

Charlie did not understand why someone would be investigating and looking into Kian’s affairs at this time.After all, Donald already knew that he was the mastermind behind Kian’s incident. As a stakeholder in this matter, the Webb family certainly would not do something unnecessary and come to investigate and look into this matter again.Therefore, the only possibility was that the people who were investigating and looking into Kian’s matter were not sent here by the Webb family.Charlie thought carefully about this matter. He was almost done dealing with all of the people that he had offended, and those that he was not done dealing with were just the Schulz family in Oskia and the Whittaker family in the United States.There were members from these two families who had suffered in Charlie’s hands. Moreover, these two families were still in the dark. If they wanted to find him, they would have to clear through layer after layer of mysteries before they could finally track him down

As he spoke, Carvalho said, “Besides, the reason why we came here this time is not because we intend to do anything to him. The Schulz family wants us to find out about his identity. However, I am not prepared to intervene or get involved in the fight between him and the Schulz family. So, even if we do find out about his true identity, I will never reveal it to the Schulz family.”Mason could not help but ask, “Great-grandpa, we came all the way here to investigate and find out the identity of the Schulz family’s enemy at the request of the Schulz family. If we refuse to help them, wouldn’t it be a direct violation of our agreement with them?”Carvalho glared at him before he said angrily, “Stupid! As soon as we decided to come to Aurous Hill, we are no longer acting on behalf of the Schulz family anymore!”After he was done speaking, Carvalho continued, “My purpose in coming to Aurous Hill is indeed to look for this powerful figure. However, I am here because I want to see if I co

Golden Arch Cafe was an authentic local dining brand in Aurous Hill. They had several branches in Aurous Hill, and they specialized in serving authentic local cuisines that were deeply loved by the locals.As soon as he arrived at the entrance of Golden Arch Cafe, Yolden gave a brief introduction to Charlie. “My ancestors were all natives of Aurous Hill for three generations. I have been living in Aurous Hill ever since I was born until my adolescence. After that, I went abroad to the United States to further my studies. After that, I settled down in the United States for a very long time. I recently returned to the country after spending decades abroad, and I suddenly felt that the food in my hometown is actually really tempting. I cannot seem to get tired of eating it at all. Although the cafeteria in the university would provide a variety of free food for the lecturers, I would always come here at noon every day so that I can have a bite of the most authentic Aurous Hill cuisine.”

Charlie was slightly surprised, but he did not show it at all. Instead, he naturally retracted his gaze.At this time, Carvalho and Mason did not know that the person that they were looking for was actually seated not too far behind them.Since they had arrived slightly earlier, their food had already been served, and they had already begun eating for quite some time.As they ate, Mason asked Carvalho, “Great-grandpa, do you have any preliminary plans on how long you intend to stay in Oskia this time?”Carvalho shook his head and said, “We will take everything step by step as it comes. I have a vague feeling that I will have a fortunate encounter during my trip to Aurous Hill this time. So, I have no plans to leave before this good fortune and opportunity appears.”Mason nodded lightly, and he was about to say something. However, he decided to hold back his words after looking around his surrounding environment. At this time, Carvalho’s cell phone suddenly rang.Carvalho glance

What made Charlie feel a little surprised was the fact that Cadfan would actually look for a Feng Shui master to investigate and find out about his identity.Although the old man had spoken very vaguely over the phone just now, the important points that he had mentioned were very clear.For instance, he had said that he would only be responsible for watching, calculating, and correcting. This was evidence that he was a Feng Shui master.In a larger sense, the role of a Feng Shui master was similar to the role of a prime minister in ancient times. A prime minister could discover the problems and provide the relevant solutions to resolve the problems, but he was not a military commander, and he would not kill or lead the soldiers to war.Perhaps thousands of people would die simply because of his words, but he would not have blood on his own hands.Of course, not all prime ministers in history were honest gentlemen, so there would also naturally be Feng Shui masters who would be wil

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

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
