For instance, if Yashita were to tell Holden that she had already achieved a fully functional Ren meridian, Holden would definitely think that it was just a fantasy.If Yashita were to tell Holden that someone had given him a pill that could advance his cultivation base by leaps and bounds or even help him to achieve a qualitative breakthrough, it’d be even less likely for Holden to believe that this was all true.If a person was limited by his own inherent perception, it would be very difficult for him to believe in anything that was beyond his understanding.Unless he witnessed it with his own eyes or experienced it himself, there was no point in saying anything at all.So, Yashita hurriedly said, “Dad, you don’t have to rush to promise him anything first. Even if you were to agree to his request, do not bring our whole family over there immediately. Just wait for me a little while. I have some very important things that I need to tell you face to face. I’ll go back early in the

Rosalie also knew her grandfather’s temperament and character very well.As her mother had said, he was too convinced with his own set of perceptions.This was just like those people who believed in the geocentric theory in ancient times. They firmly believed that the earth was the center of the universe and that the sun, as well as all the stars, were all orbiting around the earth.This kind of seemingly absurd theory lasted for thousands of years in major civilizations of the earth, and it was only until the sixteenth century when this belief had gradually been broken because of the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus. This proved that the words ‘deeply rooted’ would indeed impact a person’s views and perceptions.So, even if Yashita were to describe Charlie’s pill in even more detail over the phone, Holden would never believe her.The best and only way was to let Yashita return to Moncolne as soon as possible so that she could hand the pills over to Holden personally.

After all, that person had saved Sophie twice.If Sophie could protect Cadfan, there would be more guarantee for Cadfan’s safety.So, after praising Arrington a little, he started arranging for the private plane immediately.There were more than a hundred people in the Harker family. A medium passenger aircraft would be able to transport all of them over at once. As for the bus, he would have to prepare at least four buses. Besides that, he would have to prepare one or two more trucks to transport their luggage.Cadfan arranged for his subordinate to prepare for the passenger aircraft as well as the buses and trucks so that they would be able to pick up the Harker family from Moncolne on time at ten o’clock in the morning the next day.In that case, they would be able to arrive in Sudbury before dark.At this time, Holden also did not dare to cause any delay to the plan tomorrow. So, he had already begun to notify the entire Harker family to start packing their luggage.The enti

The helicopter landed on the icy surface of the river, which was as hard as iron, and Yashita did not wait for the helicopter to stop fully before she pushed the door open and jumped out. After thanking the pilot and saying goodbye, she quickly headed toward the Harker mansion, which was about one and a half kilometers away.At this time, many of the members of the Harker family had already gotten up early.The Harker family’s living habits had always been somewhat different as compared to that of modern society. On the contrary, their lifestyle had many similarities with the ancients.For example, the Harker family rarely relied on modern technology in their lifestyle. Aside from the telephone, which was an essential item, most of the Harker family members rarely relied on cell phones, computers, and the internet.The generation of people from the age of eighteen to fifty years old was the mainstay of the Harker family. Regardless of their gender, as long as they were members of t

Holden could not help but become more vigilant with this thought in mind.He suddenly turned around, and the internal qi in his body had already been raised from his elixir field to his hands in case he needed to attack urgently.However, when he turned around, he realized that the person who was walking toward him was indeed his daughter, Yashita.At this moment, Yashita did not seem to look any different compared to how she was when she had left yesterday.However, as Holden assessed it carefully, he felt that Yashita seemed to be very different in contrast to how she had been yesterday!This kind of feeling was as if he was looking at the same pool of water a day apart. It looked like it was the same size without any ripples in the water.Yet, it felt as though this same pool of water seemed to be much deeper as compared to how it had been yesterday!He subconsciously asked, “Yashita, you… how did you…”Yashita hurriedly interrupted him as she spoke up, “Dad, can I speak to

The father and daughter duo walked through the corridors of the front courtyard and backyard one after the other before they arrived at Holden’s study room.Holden entered the room first, and Yashita followed him into the room. Holden then turned around and closed the door as he looked at Yashita with a helpless and guilty look on his face as he said, “Yashita, you must forgive me for this matter. I had no choice but to compromise too…”Yashita nodded and said, “Dad, I know that you’re doing this out of consideration for the Harker family…”“That’s right!” Holden sighed and said, “Sigh. If it was not because of the Harker family, how could I possibly be willing to make this kind of decision? It might seem like light-hearted words, but in actual fact, this is simply a slap in my face…”As he spoke, Holden said, “Yashita, don’t blame me for this. Just like you, I also wish to find Rosalie. So, you don’t have to see the Schulz family at all in the future, and you can just go all out t

But this was also a very interesting point. If Yashita had opened up three of her meridians, or if she were to bring Rosalie, who had opened up three of her meridians back in front of Holden, Holden would have been able to see the difference at a single glance. After all, there was a whole world of difference between opening up two meridians and three meridians. It was as though the same pool of water which was only as large as a basketball court yesterday had suddenly become twice the size of a soccer field. It was a huge difference, so Holden, who had opened up three meridians himself, would certainly be able to see the difference at a single glance.What was truly interesting was that Yashita had not been able to open up her third meridian as Rosalie had, but instead, there was a huge improvement to the smoothness of the two meridians that she had originally opened up.In Holden’s eyes, the pool of water was still the same size as the basketball court that it had always been, and

Holden’s lifelong pursuit was to let the Harker family flourish in his own hands.He would be willing to give up everything, even if it was his own life, for this reason.This was also the reason why he could endure the blood feud involving his granddaughter, Rosalie, when he was faced with the offer of two billion dollars. This was because in his opinion, although his granddaughter was important, she was still less important as compared to the future of the entire Harker family.However, when he saw Yashita, who had achieved a fully functional Ren meridian, he immediately realized that this opportunity was indeed far rarer and much more important as compared to money. If he had two billion dollars on hand, he would only be able to ensure that dozens of the children in the Harker family would be able to get some help in their cultivation. However, those ordinary medicinal herbs would not be of much help to them. Even if he were to spend the entire two billion dollars on a single per

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

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6474
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
