Meanwhile in the hangar, Olivia, who was dressed incomparably beautifully as she wore a Chanel dress, was holding onto a young Caucasian man’s arm as she watched the Concorde getting closer and closer.The young Caucasian man was the eldest son of the Rothschild’s collateral family, Walliot Rothschild. Walliot’s family was rooted in Denmark, across the sea from the four northern European countries.Over the years, Walliot’s family had been hoping to join the second level of the Rothschild family ladder and so, they had been keeping a low profile as they lay in wait.The overall structure within the Rothschild family was similar to that of the Wade family, but it was even more cumbersome when compared to the Wade family at the actual execution and implementation end. The Rothschild family was a veteran capital family, and they had started out in finance and banking. So, the allocation of their internal resources was extremely strict.The Rothschild family’s lifeline was in the h

Helena’s two attendants were Olivia’s henchmen.However, Olivia had always thought that Helena did not know about this. But this time, when she saw that Helena had not brought her two attendants back with her and since they had not reported any changes to Olivia in advance, Olivia realized that Helena might have already found out about the two attendants’ true identity.Helena played dumb at this point, and she said casually, “I left the both of them back in Oskia so that they could work together with the Wade family’s planner to prepare the details for the engagement party as well as the wedding.”Helena’s words might sound fine to outsiders, but Olivia knew very well that Helena was just talking nonsense!If it was really as what she had said, Olivia’s two subordinates would definitely have reported the situation to her as soon as possible, then.But now, Olivia had not received any news from them yet. So, this proved that Helena must have the two of her subordinates under her c

Walliot was immediately furious as soon as he heard Charlie’s words, and he said, “Charlie Wade, your words are a little too arrogant, right?!”Charlie smiled and asked, “Is it arrogant? Why do I not feel it?”As he spoke, Charlie then added, “Even if the Wade family has suffered heavy losses, we still have trillions of dollars worth of assets. Some families might not have experienced such heavy losses, but they still do not have as much money as the Wade family. So, what could they be if not garbage?”Charlie looked at the both of them, and he paused for a moment before he ridiculed them, “Look, even if half of the water in the ocean is gone, it is still an ocean. However, the water in a mud pit will still be a mud pit even if it is filled to the brim.”The expression on Olivia and Walliot’s faces instantly became very ugly.Olivia knew the strength of the Northern European royal family very well. Even if she were to count all of their cash, antiques, real estate, foreign investm

Helena subconsciously asked, “Who is this other friend that you speak of?”Olivia laughed and said, “This friend of mine is a Russian oligarch, Aman Ramovic.” Helena had already learnt that Olivia intended to sell her off to Aman Ramovic from her two attendants. So, when she heard this, she was stunned in her heart. However, she tried her best to control her emotions, and she pretended to be surprised as she asked, “Olivia, when did you become friends with such a vulgar person?”Olivia squinted her eyes to size Helena up as she said, “Helena, didn’t anyone mention anything about Aman Ramovic to you?”Helena shook her head blankly and said, “No one has mentioned him. Why?” When Helena had left Olivia’s two subordinates behind and come back alone, Olivia knew that her subordinates identities had already been exposed.Now, Olivia did not know whether her two subordinates had already told Helena about her plan either.This was because earlier, Olivia had already authorized her t

When Olivia learned that Helena was coming back to the country, Olivia had already discussed all the countermeasures with her parents.Since Helena was here, she would not let Helena go so easily this time.According to Olivia’s plan, she would put Helena under strict surveillance from the moment Helena returned to the palace. She would not be allowed to leave the palace grounds at all. Olivia also called Aman in St. Petersburg, and she had reached an agreement with him over the phone. She would force Helena to agree to marry Aman after her big wedding tomorrow. Since Olivia was holding Helena’s mother as a hostage, Olivia believed that Helena would never dare to disobey her arrangements. As for Aman, he had been ridiculed by the Western media all the time for his origins, and he was already a little impatient after getting ridiculed so much.All he could think of now every day was how he could quickly marry a European royal princess so that he could humiliate all those people

Olivia was surprised and asked, “You’re not planning to kill him, are you? Although the Wade family is far away in Oskia, we will get into trouble if we really kill their people!”“No.” William waved his hand and spoke up, “I wouldn’t be stupid enough to kill him in Northern Europe. I just want to teach him a lesson and make him leave that Concorde behind!”“The Concorde?” Olivia’s eyes lit up.There were only two kinds of real top luxury goods in the real high society. One was a private jet, and the other was a private yacht.In terms of private jets alone, it looked as if the Saudi royal family’s modified A380 was the largest and most luxurious, but the truly top rare private jet that could represent the highest status would have to be the Concorde. The reason was because this thing was just too rare.Back then, a total of twenty or so Concordes had been built. Now, the remaining Concordes were now only single digits. This was truly an out-of-print private aircraft. Moreover

Half an hour later, the convoy drove into the Northern Europe palace.The Northern European royal family had three palaces in Northern Europe, and this palace in the capital was the largest as well as the most luxurious of all three.The entire palace was, in fact, more like a large combination of an ancient fortress and manor. The overall area was hundreds of hectares, and the place was so large that there was even a golf course and an equestrian field inside.It was said that the value of the building and land of this palace alone was worth more than three billion euros. However, because it was a royal patrimony and a symbol of the royal family, the laws of the country prohibited the royal family from selling it to the public. Since it could not be sold, this meant that the royal family actually only had the right to use it.The convoy passed through a large green area before it stopped in front of an old castle with a history of at least a hundred years old. The guards f

Still, wouldn’t it be too boring for him to act directly now? Besides, he had not seen through Olivia and Walliot’s conspiracy yet.How could he dive right in and get straight to the point? Shouldn’t he be giving people some time for foreplay and adaptation?So, Charlie smiled and said, “You sisters should have a chat. I will not get involved.”After he was done speaking, Charlie then gave Helena a reassuring look. When Helena saw this, she nodded and said, “Alright, then. Olivia and I will go and see Grandma first. Let’s meet at dinner.”Charlie nodded. “Okay.” Charlie was brought to a guest room on the third floor of the ancient castle under the guards’ guidance.Meanwhile, Olivia led Helena directly to the top floor of the ancient castle, which was the sixth floor. This level was basically a dedicated area for the entire royal family to live in,The Queen, who had basically been sentenced to death, was now in a luxurious suite on the top floor at this time.Half of this

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

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
