Liam fell to the ground as soon as Jeffrey kicked him in the stomach. He could only hold onto his stomach as his face flushed red from the pain.However, he did not dare to say anything anymore. Liam simply stood up quietly before he stood behind Jeffrey once more without saying anything anymore.At this time, Charlie glanced at Liam once again.Charlie felt as though he could see a shadow of his former self in Liam.He was despised, looked down upon, and even humiliated by others, but he could only choose to bear it and stay hidden as he waited quietly for his chance to rise.Just then, Wendy nudged Jeffrey before she said, “My dear, don’t get angry because of a piece of trash and a worthless b*stard child. Let’s go in and check out the expo now.”Jeffrey nodded immediately.Charlie was simply a piece of trash to him, and Liam was just a b*stard child in his eyes. Even if he had already suffered a huge loss because of Charlie, he really did not think that Charlie was a great or

There were many kinds of ginseng in this world. Common ginseng, American ginseng, red ginseng, purple ginseng, and wild ginseng. Amongst them, the rarest and most expensive of them all was none other than the purple ginseng.Moreover, ginseng itself had a lifespan, and most of them could not live for more than a hundred years. Therefore, if a ginseng plant was not picked, it could easily become a century-old ginseng or a few-hundred-year-old ginseng. After that, it would eventually come to an end.Any ginseng that could live for two or three hundred years was the best type of ginseng. Furthermore, any ginseng that could live for more than five hundred years was very precious and extremely rare. Some people who had been collecting ginseng for their entire life might not even have the chance to see it at all.As for the ginseng that was more than a thousand years old, it was even more valuable than anything. It almost only existed in legends, and it was really rare for anyone to take

When Anthony heard Ichiro’s open denial, he replied coldly, “I remember that you have three types of medicine that are marketed all over the world, namely the stomach powder, clear throat powder, and an eczema lotion. All of these three medicines originated from Chinese medication. One of it is from the Chinese physician, Zhang Zhongjing’s ‘Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases’, one of it is from ‘The Han Dynasty’s Medicinal Report’, and the last one is from the ‘Compendium of Materia Medical’. Am I right?”The expression on Ichiro’s face was a little ugly, but he continued denying it even at this time. “Dr. Simmons, are you joking? Those ancient Chinese pharmacopoeias one or two thousand years ago are basically rubbish without any clinical application and scientific basis at all. Why would such a big pharmaceutical company like Kobayashi Pharma use this kind of backward pharmacopoeias from one or two thousand years ago? This is really insulting!”When the other Chinese phy

After he was done speaking, Ichiro turned around and left immediately.At this time, Charlie said to Anthony, “This Japanese man seems a bit insidious. If he really thinks that you have the prescription for high-level paraplegia, you should be more careful. After all, once this magical pill is mass-produced, he would be able to gain absolute wealth in this world.”There was a movie called ‘I am not the God of Medicine’ not too long ago, and it was about a Chinese leukemia patient. Since he could not afford the extremely expensive medicine produced by Western cultures, he could only go to India to buy some imitation medication.Through this movie, you could actually see how black-hearted those large pharmaceutical groups could be just because they wanted to make some money. When a new drug was developed, a patient needed to spend at least twenty to thirty thousand dollars a month to afford the medication. What else could the patient do?Kobayashi Pharma also wanted to get their hand

Moreover, it was not that difficult to refine the Terminal Lucidity Pill.All that was needed was just some of the more common medicinal materials.As it was not time for the auction of the purple ginseng to begin yet, Charlie took advantage of this opportunity to look for Graham before he gave him a list of a dozen medicinal herbs and materials that he needed.Graham hurriedly gathered all of the medicinal herbs and materials for him.After that, Charlie went to the lounge that had been rented by Graham before refining four of the Terminal Lucidity Pill on the spot.Chinese medication was always made out of different medicinal herbs and materials. Therefore, after boiling the herbs, no matter what the medicine was for and no matter how different it was, the color of the medicine would still be dark brown.It was also the same for pills.The color of the Terminal Lucidity Pill was almost the same as the previous magical pill that he had concocted before this. Moreover, Charlie d

Jeffrey knew that if people continued bidding for the premium purple ginseng, the price of the purple ginseng would probably cost twenty to thirty million dollars in the end. Therefore, he simply doubled the price of the purple ginseng in the first bid just so that he could frighten some people away. He was also hoping that he would be able to take the purple ginseng away at a lower price instead!“Eleven million dollars.” A middle-aged man in the hall also shouted as he raised his placard.Jeffrey glanced at the man in disdain before he raised his placard again and said, “Fifteen million dollars.”“Sixteen million dollars.”Someone spoke up again.“Twenty-five million dollars,” Jeffrey yelled as he held up his placard again.In fact, Jeffrey was simply helping Kenneth to participate in the auction this time. Kenneth would be the one bearing the price of the bid today. Therefore, he did not feel distressed at all.The price of twenty-five million dollars made many people think o

Many people at the scene knew that Kenneth had once knelt before Charlie and had called him his father and grandfather. Therefore, they laughed out loud as soon as they heard Charlie’s words.Kenneth, not wanting to lose any more face, grit his teeth as he said, “Okay, then! You really have the guts! I will pay ninety million dollars for it!”Jeffrey tugged at his sleeves before he said, “Chairman Wilson, ninety million dollars is way too expensive for the purple ginseng! That thing is not worth that much money. Don’t act so impulsively and be fooled by that b*stard!”Ninety million dollars just to buy that purple ginseng?! No ginseng was worth that much money unless it was for a ginseng that was more than a thousand years old!Even though Kenneth was extremely rich, he was not an extravagant or wasteful person. He already felt a burn in his pocket when he had to spend fifteen million dollars just to have sexual intercourse with Wendy. Kenneth could really feel the hole in his wall

What if he had accidentally thrown the cheque into the washing machine to wash with his clothes?Oh my God! It was shocking for them to even think about it.Kenneth’s face twitched faintly in anger. He really did not understand why this piece of trash could actually have so much money. Wasn’t he just a useless son-in-law of the Wilson family?Charlie asked the host, “Since no one can outbid me and since I can afford to pay one hundred million dollars for it, the superb purple ginseng should belong to me now, right?”The host regained his senses and said immediately, “Now, I am going to announce that this three-hundred-year-old purple ginseng belongs to…”Before he could finish his sentence, Kenneth hurriedly said, “Stop! I am going to increase the bid now!”Everyone at the scene was shocked yet again.The auction had begun at five million dollars, and the bid was already at one hundred million dollars now. Was he really going to continue bidding and increasing the price?The pu

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
