The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3674
Since their base camp had never been attached before, this group of people had no sense of crisis at all. The soldiers were smoking cigarettes and chatting in groups of twos and threes as they just waited for their shift to change so that they could go back and rest after dawn.However, they did not know that in the darkness of the sea, many heavily armed frogmen who were armed with silent electric thrusters were silently approaching the coastline.These frogmen were soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies. The leader of this team was Zayne, the second-in-command in Ten Thousand Armies. For Zayne, asking him to lead the assassination for an inconspicuous pirate leader really felt like he was killing a chicken with a slaughter knife.However, Zayne did not dare to express or feel any dissatisfaction when he thought of how this was extremely important to Ten Thousand Armies’ armed escort business.Therefore, he personally led his soldiers to infiltrate Badr’s base from the sea just so
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 3675
Badr, who was all-powerful in the Gulf of Aden, would never have dreamt that he would be killed so easily. In Zayne’s opinion, this kind of guy was nothing at all, and Badr was actually considered lucky to be able to die in his hands.After that, Zayne gently placed his body back on the bed. Badr’s body was still in a position where he was facing upward, but his entire face had been sunk into the pillow, revealing only the back of his head.This kind of image contained a little strangeness and violence.At this time, Zayne took out a waterproof plastic cylinder from his chest, and he then took out a set of handwritten words by Porter on which only a few words were written on it: “Anyone who stands in my way will be killed.”This sentence was a reminder that Ten Thousand Armies was leaving behind for the rest of the pirate organization.At this time, Zayne retreated from the room quietly. After that, he greeted his men who were standing guard outside the door, and they all went

He did not expect that they were originally planning to siege Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group’s cargo ship as well as the armed escorts from Ten Thousand Armies early in the morning, but unexpectedly, Ten Thousand Armies’ action was obviously faster. Moreover, they did not even have to wait, and they actually came all the way to their base to attack them!Moreover, he also did not expect that Ten Thousand Armies’ strength would be so strong and powerful that no one would notice at all even when his boss had been killed in this base with thousands of people in it!It had taken Badr twenty years to conquer this country, but in the end, his own neck had been snapped and broken in his very own base camp!Furthermore, the dozens of speedboats that Badr had accumulated over the past twenty years were all also blown up by Ten Thousand Armies in the blink of an eye!His twenty years of hard work and his own life had been destroyed in one night!The second-in-command immediately realized t

When the news of Badr’s death was confirmed, public opinion around the world was in an uproar!No one would have expected that Badr would die so suddenly!Just yesterday, Badr had vowed to take revenge on Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group and kick Ten Thousand Armies out of the Gulf of Aden at the same time.Just when many people thought that it would take a long time for Ten Thousand Armies to suppress the local tyrant in order to establish its prestige in the Gulf of Aden and just when they were all worried for Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group, Badr had died tragically in his own base the previous night!Moreover, all of the speedboats he had under his command had exploded, and there was even a massive explosion for the storage tank in his base. It could be said that his entire base was in a complete mess.Although there was a series of explosions, it did not bring about a large number of casualties to the pirate organization. Instead, it simply made them lose all of their speedboa

But now, such days were gone.When Ten Thousand Armies had entered the Gulf of Aden, they had overturned all of their previous gameplay and rules completely. As soon as there was a disagreement, Ten Thousand Armies would go to the pirate’s base camp directly to take out the pirate leader and also blow up all of their boats at the same time. This kind of play-to-death method made all of the pirate leaders tremble in fear.Everyone was worried that they would be killed by Ten Thousand Armies in their sleep one day. Moreover, Ten Thousand Armies’ strength was too strong, and they would not be able to defend against them.What was more, Ten Thousand Armies’ base camp was not in the Gulf of Aden. Therefore, they could only attack passively in front of Ten Thousand Armies, and they were not strong enough.In an instant, all of the pirate organizations in the entire Gulf of Aden were panicking and on edge.Ten Thousand Armies had gained overnight fame in the Gulf of Aden. The entire

When Charlie said that he wanted to formulate a set of rules in the Gulf of Aden to force those pirates to play strictly according to this set of rules, Porter instantly understood Charlie’s method of work completely. It was not difficult to be the one with the hardest fist in a region, but the one with the hardest fist might not necessarily be able to make everyone do what he wanted. If he wanted to become the rule-maker in a region and make everyone do things according to his rules regardless of whether they wanted to or not, this would obviously be a much higher level, then. So, Porter immediately said respectfully to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, I understand what you mean. I will go and make the arrangements now!” ***At the same time, the other pirates in the Gulf of Aden were panicking and in a desperate situation.Almost all of the leaders of the pirate organizations had coincidentally called for all the speedboats to come back from sea.This was because they were afraid that

Just when these people were at a loss for what to do, Ten Thousand Armies issued another announcement to the public, stating that the booking channel for Ten Thousand Armies’ armed escort services was officially opened with immediate effect. All of the shipowners who wanted to cooperate with Ten Thousand Armies could get in touch with Ten Thousand Armies through an email address left by Ten Thousand Armies. They would at least be able to send a request for a face-to-face meeting with Ten Thousand Armies through this email. If Ten Thousand Armies agreed to it, wouldn’t there be room for mediation, then?As a result, a number of pirate leaders immediately elected one of their subordinates with the highest level of literacy to ask him to get in touch with Ten Thousand Armies through this email address. Ever since this email address had been published, Porter had been personally keeping an eye on the movements within this email inbox.He knew that Charlie’s idea was a good way to kil

As soon as they met, the leader of Puntland Guard said very respectfully, “Hello, Sir. My name is Sheck. I’m the leader of Puntland Guard...”The five-star general from Ten Thousand Armies had a blank expression on his face as he said, “I don’t care who you are. I just want to know what is your ulterior motive since you, as a pirate, actually dared to take the initiative to ask to meet up with us?”Sheck hurriedly said, “The leaders of the other pirate organization and I myself know of Ten Thousand Armies’ reputation and prestige. We have the utmost respect for Ten Thousand Armies, and we also welcome Ten Thousand Armies to the Gulf of Aden. The reason why we would like to meet with Your Excellency is because we want to have a friendly negotiation with Ten Thousand Armies to determine if both of our sides can coexist peacefully in the Gulf of Aden in the future...”The five-star general said coldly, “Ten Thousand Armies will not cooperate with pirate organizations like yours in any

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
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6475
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

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

There were those in Antique Street who made their living from swindling the average Joe while others swindled antique traders.In fact, it was already cliche for them to trick antique traders with forgeries, and it was not surprising that someone had tried their luck on the opening day of Raymond's shop.As such, it was strange that he had just started today without any hype or even a proper shop sign, but someone was already after him.That told him that he was being targeted, and Raymond was putting his money on Zachary.The sole reason for that was how Zachary had come earlier to ask Raymond about how much capital he had, and he had humbly said a few hundred thousand.The fact that Billy had come and immediately demanded 500 thousand made even more sense—he wanted to siphon all of Raymond's capital.Even losing money wasn't the worst part—the worst was being labeled as an amateur.When that happened, customers who wanted the good stuff wouldn't come to him, and he would find

Just as Jacob was celebrating fooling Raymond, getting his revenge, and earning 200 thousand on top of that, Charlie was left musing to himself on the second floor of the teahouse.He knew that Billy was a conman as soon as he saw him, but he didn't understand why Raymond would buy from Billy.Could the item really be medieval as Raymond stated?As soon as the thought occurred to him, Charlie was sure of it. Given Raymond's knowledge of antiques, there was no way he would mess up in Antique Street of Aurous Hill.While his father-in-law and Zachary had worked hard to weave this elaborate conspiracy, Charlie still wondered how they would take the news that Raymond had bought something worth millions for just 300 thousand.Meanwhile, Raymond watched as Billy left and locked the door from the inside before studying the bronze sculpture once more.He trusted his own judgment that it was a gilded bronze statue from the medieval era. He was playing down its importance since the bronze

Meanwhile, Raymond sighed unhappily. "I really can't afford four hundred grand—like I said, there's not much to offer here in my shop, which I've been investing a lot in. I'd have to pay rent to the owner soon as well, and everything would end terribly for me if I paid that much…"Billy blurted right then, "You said it's medieval and worth millions, didn't you? You'd make a fortune if you sold it!"Raymond sighed again. "Million-dollar antiques aren't that easily sold, and people would be especially skeptical with a small business like mine. I could sell it at an auction too, but that's only happening when someone decides to organize one, not to mention the troublesome appraisal processes it involves.""And right now, I just think it's medieval in terms of style, but I'm no authority in the matter. In the end, it's up to experts and specific groups that would verify it, and if I messed up, it's entirely my loss.""Even if I'm lucky and it's medieval, I'd still have to wait until th

"Invest?!"Billy was left dumbstruck at the term.What even was this fool up to? This definitely wasn't in the script! What about the questions he was supposed to ask? It was like sitting for a grade-schooler test and suddenly being hit with a bar exam!In the car, Jacob blurted out, "What the hell is that bastard thinking? Is he really going to pay 250 thousand?!"Zachary pursed his lips. "Maybe he's just throwing us bait. Think about it—if we took the deal, we'd have to leave a contact number.""After that, he would trick us and say he sold it for ten million and lure us in for the five million. We'd definitely show up, wouldn't we? Once we came, it might turn out that he has called the cops and would even produce\ the bronze sculpture as evidence. Wouldn't we be just shooting ourselves in the foot?"Jacob was left in misery, his face contorting as he pouted, "But you said the cops wouldn't get involved…"Zachary rolled his eyes, "Yes, they wouldn't most of the time since that
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6469
However, neither Zachary nor Jacob expected Raymond to confuse them further as he asked Billy, "If you can afford to wait, you can leave the bronze sculpture with me as a consignment. I'll only take 10% off the sales while you get the rest—how about that?"Jacob was stunned and asked Zachary, "What the hell is he up to? Did he get too deep into character?"Zachary shook his head. "I don't get it either… is he trying to keep the bronze sculpture to use as evidence against us?"Jacob frowned. "I thought you said there was a gentleman agreement in this business, and the cops won't really care anyway?"Zachary snorted. "He said he would keep it as a consignment, meaning that he won't spend a dime. What if he told all the antique dealers instead of going to the cops? He would prove that he's sharp, making a name for himself… and what can we do? Do we take back the bronze sculpture? Even if we do, can we really ask for it?'"Fuck!" Jacob swore. "Then what are we waiting for? Tell Billy
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6468
In Treasure Measure, even Billy was having a hard time understanding what was going on.Before he came, Zachary made it very clear that he was here to dupe Raymond Cole, and he had come.As such, his job was now to claim that this bronze sculpture which was made in the last century was actually from the Renaissance era and then sell it to Raymond at a cutthroat price.But now, Raymond himself was saying that it was medieval? What was that supposed to mean?Even as he was left confused, he blurted out, "Sir, if you say it's from medieval times… then how much is it worth?"Raymond thought about it and said, "It's quite an unpopular item, but it's not to say that no one would buy it or that no one likes it. The main issue is that there were plenty of wars at that time, and most bronze would be used for weapons. Copper production would be low with rationing as well, so bronze tools were naturally rare for civilians.""Gilding is common for better quality items, and from the northern
