Due to the fast speed of the Concorde and the fact that the other party’s plane had applied for a route that would take off four hours later, Charlie guessed that they intended to wait until late at night before arriving in Bergen in Northern Europe. So, he was not in a hurry to leave immediately. He asked Albert and Isaac to transit from New York to Providence with the Concorde and to wait at Providence Airport.As for himself, he waited until Claire came back from school to tell her that he would be going to New York tonight on the grounds that there was an accident at his client’s construction site in New York and his client had asked him to head over to help him to check out the Feng Shui. Claire did not want him to be so tired at first, but Charlie told her that the other party had used a lot of connections to rescue her mother, Elaine, from prison, so she owed the other party a big favor that had to be paid back. Therefore, Claire could only agree reluctantly. Charlie subs

“Change of heart?” Helena suddenly stopped pacing, and she had a serious expression as she said to the old queen, “Grandma, my feelings for Charlie is unlikely to change in this lifetime.”The old queen pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before she said, “Helena, you must know very well in your heart that it’s very difficult for you and Charlie to be together. It’s not just because he’s already married, but you’re the Queen of Northern Europe now, and your future husband can only be a European royal family or a patriarchal noble. Otherwise, the people will not be able to accept it.”Helena said firmly, “Grandma, I’ve already expressed my stance on this matter a long time ago. If I’m really lucky enough to be with Charlie, I will be willing even if the people of Northern Europe see me as a sinner.”The old queen asked helplessly, “Don’t you care about the image of the royal family?” Helena shook her head and said firmly, “I’ve already made two plans for my future a long tim

Although it was summer, the night in Oslo City was still a little chilly. Nevertheless, Helena was wearing a strapless court dress which made her look as beautiful and perfect as a noble tulip. When Helena saw Charlie getting out of the car, the temperament of a queen that Helena had recently cultivated gradually disappeared, and it was replaced by a young girl who was in love and was happy and excited when she saw her beloved. She held up the hem of her dress and ran toward Charlie. The royal butler subconsciously wanted to follow her but found that he could not catch up to her at all.The old queen’s legs were not so agile, so she walked out unhurriedly. She shook her head helplessly and sighed softly as she watched Helena’s figure dash away. Helena rushed to Charlie, and her pair of deep eyes were filled with joy as she said excitedly, “It’s been a long time, Mr. Wade!” Charlie smiled slightly and said politely, “It’s been a long time, indeed.”The old queen also came to t

After nearly two hours of flight, the helicopter slowly landed at the Northern Europe royal family’s palace in Bergen, which was the second largest city in Northern Europe. The royal palace was located in the suburbs and occupied a large area. However, due to the decline of the Northern Europe royal family in recent years and the parliament’s continuous cutting down of the royal budget, the palace also appeared to look a little dilapidated due to the lack of repair. The Northern Europe royal family’s own financial situation was not optimistic either. Although they had assets of more than one billion euros, most of them were locked in real estate which the Northern Europe royal family could not sell in this lifetime. For instance, the palace in the capital city of Oslo City as well as the palace in Bergen were valuable, but once the Northern Europe royal family reached the point of selling their ancestral property, they would definitely be shunned by the citizens of Northern Europe.

Therefore, Charlie’s plan was to sneak into Bergen International Airport before the plane landed to keep an eye on this plane as well as the people and cargo unloaded from this plane to see where their destination was and who their target truly was.Although Bergen was the second largest city in Northern Europe, its population size was only a few hundred thousand, after all. So, the size of Bergen International Airport was not too large. The airport was built near the sea with a north-south runway and a terminal that was located in the center of the airport. The aircraft and logistics areas were located at the top and bottom of the terminal building.Since Northern Europe was one of the European Union countries, almost all of Bergen’s international flights were from countries within the European Union, and the customs administration was relatively loose. There were little to almost no strict entry inspections for the passengers or cargo of international flights landing here.There

The plane was parked on the open apron outside the cargo yard a few minutes later.A number of stevedores were already waiting in advance with loading trucks and transport vehicles. After the cargo plane’s hatch was opened, those stevedores lifted themselves up the side of the cabin by lifting the loading trucks. Upon opening the door, they started to unload the groups of cargo that had been arranged in pallets from the cabin, one after the other. Since the transportation of cargo planes adopted a modular method, all goods were packed according to the board. Generally speaking, it was a three-meter-one by two-meter-four special aluminum board. The aluminum board had fixed positions of uniform specifications.All goods were loaded one by one, and the entire board was transported to the interior of the engine room and fixed, and the whole board was also unloaded to improve the loading and unloading efficiency when unloading. The aircraft quickly unloaded four pallets, and each pa

After the eight stevedores had been killed, the killer who was disguised as a stevedore walked out of the cabin very calmly.After coming out, he locked the huge hatch skillfully and took the lift down to the ground.After a rendezvous with his other seven companions who had come down earlier, the eight of them transformed into stevedores directly and drove the transport truck that had just been filled with pallets away in an orderly manner.At this time, the pilots of the Boeing 777 had already started to apply for an immediate take-off to Cyprus from the control tower.Since the plane’s original flight plan was to return immediately after loading, the control tower did not have any doubts and allowed the plane to take off directly. The plane then restarted the engine with the eight corpses in it as it taxied toward the end of the runway. It soon took off and disappeared into the dark night.At the same time, after completing their stealth operation, the eight fake stevedores dro

No one noticed anything unusual. The driver stepped on the accelerator, and the motor-driven truck only made the slight sound of a motor rotating, After the car left the airport, it did not drive in the direction of the city but all the way toward the southwest, into the suburbs south of Bergen. Due to the narrow topography from north to south and the fact that most of the land in Northern Europe was within the Arctic Circle, Northern Europe was relatively weak in agriculture.However, Bergen was located in the southern part of Northern Europe where the weather was considerably mild and the terrain somewhat flat, so most of the suburbs here were farms of a certain scale.The degree of agricultural modernization in the west was rather high, so in the suburbs of Bergen, there were a few concentrated communities. The farms occupied a relatively large area, and all the residents here were also scattered, so there would only be one household every hundred of kilometers.Charlie, who

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

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!
