If there were any ways for him to put the Healing Pill on the production line and realize mass production, it would then really be possible for Charlie to realize Liam’s vision just now. However, this idea could only be regarded as a good wish so far, and if Charlie truly wanted to realize it, he would have to wait and see if there were any better opportunities in the future.At this time, however, Charlie suddenly thought of how the medicinal effect of the Healing Pill was actually very strong. As long as a person was still breathing, this pill would definitely be able to save that person’s life, and the pill could also cure the vast majority of injuries and illnesses completely. In that case, Charlie could dilute the ingredients to make a special drug that could control cancer immediately! If a patient with a tumor were to take the pill, it would effectively inhibit the development of the tumor, and if the pill were to be taken continuously for a long term, it would not only inh
Charlie knew very well in his heart that if he simply hoped that the Apothecary Restoration Pill could cure cancer, he only needed to refine a batch of Healing Pills and then have Liam use cornstarch to dilute it according to the ratio of one-thousandth of the active ingredients. Cornstarch was, in itself, the most commonly used diluent in the pharmaceutical field. In Western medicine, the active ingredient in a pill was sometimes less than one gram, and the rest of the pill would be almost entirely made out of cornstarch as an excipient that was safe, non-toxic, and would not cause any side effects. In that case, there would be no need to register a patent for the prescription.After all, the efficacy of the Healing Pill relied on the refinement and sublimation of Reiki. Without the use of Reiki to refine the medicine, the medicinal power of the pill would be exactly on the same level as any other ordinary drug on the market. Even if those top pharmaceutical companies that used
Liam immediately said respectfully, “I understand, Master Wade! Don’t worry! I’ll arrange for a trial production when I go back later. I will call you as soon as it’s finished! I will also personally take the Apothecary Restoration Pill to the United States after the production is done!”After saying that, Liam looked at the time and said impatiently, “Master Wade, if you do not have any other instructions for me, I will go back to the factory first and make the arrangements for the work to be done now!” “Okay.” Charlie nodded in satisfaction and said, “You should hurry up and get busy, then. I will not keep you here any further.”“Okay, Master Wade. I’ll take my leave first!”Liam put the prescriptions away carefully and then hurriedly bid farewell before leaving.After Liam had left, Isaac then said to Charlie, “Young Master, during this period of time, Liam’s progress has been visible to the naked eye. His work is not only logical and organized, but he also appears to be much
At this moment, the viewers all over the world were sitting in front of the screen, and they were anticipating Helena’s appearance. More than thirty years had passed since the coronation of a new queen in this world, so everyone was full of curiosity about Helena, the new queen who was about to be crowned and enthroned at this moment. Albert and Isaac could not help but open the live streaming video website at this time as well. The both of them had also met Helena personally up on Mount Wintry, and they also knew that before this, Helena was just a puppet who had no one whom she could rely on in the royal family and that she was being used by the royal family as a tool for marriage. However, only a few days had passed and now, Helena was already going to succeed the throne as the new queen. This was simply an earth-shattering change.Moreover, Albert and Isaac also knew very well that the reason why Helena was able to reverse and turn her life around completely to ascend to the
At this moment, Helena stopped and stood at the entrance of the palace as she waved at the people of Northern Europe who were in a frenzy at a distance far away.The camera of the live broadcast then quickly zoomed in closer to give Helena a full-body close-up. Helena looked even more beautiful in the close-up shot. At this point, the host could not help but sigh and say, “I have to say that Helena Elliot is simply too beautiful. Everyone at the scene is shocked by her beauty and so, you can imagine how happy the people from Northern Europe are feeling at this moment!”At this moment, the camera suddenly noticed a brooch that Helena was wearing on the left side of her chest. The camera then quickly zoomed in and gave a close-up shot of the brooch. The host then said, “Viewers, what you can see now is the camera showing a close-up of the brooch that Helena Elliot is wearing. This should be a leaf made out of gold. It looks very refined and delicate, and there are two letters spell
At this time, the Western media and netizens were all discussing this matter loudly. Everyone was speculating about Helena’s intention in choosing to wear such a brooch on her chest on this incredibly important occasion today. If the letters C and W were truly the initials of a person’s name, who could that person be?In an instant, there were a lot of speculations on the internet, and even many Oskian netizens began to gossip.However, since everyone had the preconceived notion that if these two letters represented the abbreviation of a person's name, that person's name had to be an English name, Thus, they simply couldn't guess the correct answer.After all, aside from those people who appeared on Mount Wintry on the day of the Tomb Sweeping Festival, no one would have thought that those two letters would actually represent the initials of an Oskian person's name.And at this time, the live broadcast was still ongoing.Helena had already boarded the historic royal carriage w
As soon as they entered, Jasmine invited Charlie to sit on the sofa. She could not help but start to tease Charlie as she smiled and said, “Master Wade, did you watch the live broadcast of Helena’s coronation ceremony?”Charlie casually said, “I watched it.”Jasmine smiled brightly as she looked at Charlie and asked, “Master Wade, Helena must be using the live broadcast to profess her love for you on air through that brooch, right?”Charlie was helpless, and he questioned her in return, “Jasmine, when did you become someone who enjoys gossiping? It’s not like you at all.”Jasmine smiled slightly and said seriously, “I’m not someone who enjoys gossiping. It’s just that when I saw the brooch on Helena’s chest during the live broadcast, Nanako had already called me to tell me that the both of us have gotten another love rival this time.”Charlie asked her, “Did you tell Nanako that I was coming to your company?”“Of course.” Jasmine smiled and said, “It was Nanako who asked me to as
Charlie’s words caused Jasmine to instantly feel a surging excitement in her heart.She had always wanted to make their family’s business of collectibles trading and auction bigger and stronger, but she had never been able to find a suitable breakthrough point. It was also precisely because she attached great importance to this business that she had immediately befriended Charlie after seeing with her own eyes that he could use the lost cultural relic restoration technics to restore her family's antiques.She had originally hoped to recruit Charlie to Vintage Deluxe to work for the Moore family, but how could she have expected that Charlie, who was just a superfluous son-in-law at first, was actually the young master of the Wade family in Eastcliff, or that his own strength would be extremely powerful?Therefore, Jasmine’s wish to revitalize Vintage Deluxe through Charlie had long since fizzled out.Since then, Vintage Deluxe had not been able to find a better development opportu
No one except Raymond expected that the terms would be agreed upon so quickly.He was utterly confident in his judgment and even more so in his value appraisal.He was convinced that once they had a good look, any one of these collectors who could afford twenty million wouldn't miss this bargain.After all, an opportunity to secure an item worth millions more than the price they paid was very rare.In fact, when the other nine collectors heard that the first collector was buying it, it was only to be expected even if it left them all gloomy. They had all held the bronze sculpture in their hands—they knew it was definitely worth that much.However, no one in the room was more shocked than Trippy.He looked utterly flabbergasted, his eyes wide and bulging as he stared at the bronze sculpture while asking himself the same question repeatedly.Was that crap really worth twenty million? How?!While Trippy was still stunned, Raymond had already sent his payment details to the first
Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"
While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav
Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from
"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,
Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my
After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme
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
