Now that all of his children were already married, they all lived a poor and destitute life.Although he was already so old, he still had to come out to swindle and cheat people. On one hand, it was so that he could support himself and his wife, and on the other hand, it was because he hoped that he would be able to give his children a little money to subsidize their living.The old man usually did not dare to vent or tell anyone about his sad and miserable situation, and he had to pretend as though he was a learned and successful man. But now, this young man had actually seen right through him, and he was exposing him directly. This immediately made the old man feel very angry.He did not think that Charlie truly had the ability to read divinations, but he felt that Charlie was deliberately trying to ruin his business while taking advantage of this opportunity to mock and ridicule him!So, he snorted as he replied disdainfully, “Pfft! You are saying that I have been suffering and
The old fortune-teller would never have expected Yolden, who looked like a decent and cultured middle-aged man, would actually try to go against him and contradict him at this time too. So, he immediately replied with a hint of irritation and anger, “You don’t have to try and bring up science in front of me now. What kind of science are you talking about? Even if it is science, there should be some common sense in it too, right? Like father, like son. So, since I have an AB blood type, it is only natural and justified for me to have a son with AB blood type too! What is the problem?”Yolden replied helplessly, “Sir, you really should believe in science. Although I do not specialize in studying medical science and biology, no matter what it is, I am still a university professor. Therefore, I still have some basic common sense too.”The old man suddenly started panicking when he heard Yolden saying that he was a university professor.He felt that Yolden did not look like a liar. So, h
He never would have dreamt that not one of his three sons were his biological sons.He could not help but hold his face as he said with a pained look on his face, “I… what sins have I committed in this life? I… I have been working hard all my life to raise other people’s sons and grandchildren for them…”As the old man spoke, he collapsed completely, and he suddenly lay down on the ground as he cried out loudly and miserably.Yolden was also taken aback.He thought that Charlie had been deliberately trying to go against this old man all this while. However, he had never expected everything Charlie had said would be true.He hurriedly asked Charlie, “Charlie… this… what is going on?”Charlie shrugged helplessly as he said, “That is how it is. Judging from his physiognomy and the hexagram, he should not have a son. Nevertheless, he claimed to have three sons. So, it was obvious that something was wrong. However, the truth is finally out now, and he truly does not have any sons at
Charlie was still worrying about Autumn’s matter as he was making his way to Shangri-La by taxi.Charlie was even thinking of setting off immediately to ensure that he would have enough time to react and take action if Autumn were to encounter any mishaps. However, the situation in Syria was indeed very special, and Charlie did not know how he could possibly head to Syria at all.When he thought about how Isaac seemed to be very resourceful in every aspect, Charlie prepared to look for him so that he could come up with some ideas on his behalf.It just so happened that he would also have to have a discussion with Isaac on how they were going to deal with the Schulz family next. After Charlie had arrived at Shangri-La, he headed directly to Isaac’s office.Meanwhile, in Shangri-La, Sheldon was still waiting for the perfect opportunity to establish contact with Yahiko.However, since he had secretly sneaked into Shangri-La, he had been staying quietly in his room so far without re
As soon as he heard this, Isaac did not try to persuade Charlie anymore. Instead, he immediately took out his cell phone and made several calls.After he was done making the calls, Isaac said to Charlie, “Young Master, I have already consulted some of my friends and inquired about some overseas channels. If you want to go to Syria now, the route that is most commonly used is to fly in to Turkey or Iran first before entering Syria by land through these two countries.”As he spoke, Isaac said again, “But the awkward thing is that Turkey is located toward the north of Syria, and Iraq is located toward the east of Syria, but the capital of Syria, Damascus, is located in the southwest. That means that regardless of whether you are going to travel from Iraq or Turkey, you will have to travel hundreds of kilometers on land before arriving at Damascus.”“Furthermore, the terrain in the Middle East is extremely complex, and transportation there is not convenient either. Just this journey alo
The Concorde was once the only turbojet-powered supersonic airliner in the world that was truly put into commercial operation.Many young people might not know about this aircraft at all, but they would have to admit that this aircraft had left a very strong impression in the history of civil aviation.Based on the development of human science and technology over the past few decades, an interesting phenomenon could be discovered, and that was that people had been relatively conservative in the development of science and technology over the recent years.However, during the Cold War era from the 1960s to the 1980s, it was the golden age where science and technology seemed to thrive, and it had developed widely and rapidly.The people from that era had also shown unprecedented enthusiasm and radicalism in the field of science and technology. During the era when the computing powers of computers were not as great as a learning machine, the Soviet Union had sent astronauts to space,
The phone call was immediately connected after ringing twice.Jeremiah asked happily, “Charlie, why did you suddenly think of calling me today?”Charlie went straight to the topic as he said, “I need to ask you for a favor.”Jeremiah replied without any hesitation, “Oh! Why do you need to be so polite with your own grandfather? You can just tell me if there is anything you need. As long as it is within my abilities, I will certainly go all out to help you!”Charlie replied, “I have to go to Lebanon immediately to deal with an urgent matter. I heard that you own a Concorde. So, I would like to borrow it.”“Borrow the Concorde?” Jeremiah hesitated for a moment. After a short while, he smiled and said, “Charlie, if you want to borrow a private jet, I own a very, very luxurious Boeing business jet. I spent more than one hundred million US dollars just on the internal modification of the jet alone. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a palace in the sky. Should I lend tha
In Jeremiah’s eyes, Charlie was a person that he had to fight hard to win over.Leaving Charlie’s powerful and incredible strength aside, Jeremiah was already looking forward to Charlie’s official return to the Wade family simply because of the marriage contract between Charlie and Quinn, combined with the firm and willing attitude that the Golding family had to fulfill and abide by the marriage contract.The money that he had made by engaging in trade and businesses would have to be gathered and accumulated one after the other. However, a sum of money that Charlie could make for the Wade family simply by marrying a woman would be equivalent to adding tens or even hundreds of billions of dollars worth of property and assets overnight for the Wade family.Yule only had one daughter, and that was Quinn. Hence, everyone knew that as long as anyone were to marry Quinn, he would be able to inherit the entire Golding family.Jeremiah had already wanted to surpass the Schulz family since
