After the order was created, Elaine immediately returned to her live broadcast room and waited for users to come.As long as the money was spent, the effect was really there immediately. Soon, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room changed from zero to one.At this moment, Elaine was very excited and hurriedly said, “Oh, welcome to my live broadcast room!”The other party dropped a comment. “Pfft.”After that, he left the live broadcast room immediately. When Elaine saw her first viewer leaving after leaving a word, she cursed angrily, “What do you mean by ‘Pfft’? You really do not know any better, do you?!”As soon as she was done speaking, another viewer came in. Elaine quickly put her angry expression away and said with a smile, “Welcome, new...”The number of viewers in the live broadcast room returned to zero after she had spoken two words. Immediately afterward, a series of people came in. They all retreated immediately, as soon as they came in. At least, th
Elaine almost went berserk the moment she saw the system prompt!She never expected that her live broadcast debut would start so low as this!This caused her self-esteem to be greatly hurt.She was so furious that she contacted the short video platform’s customer service directly, and the customer service consultant then said, “Hello, how can I help you?”Elaine immediately cursed angrily, “Why did you ban my live broadcast room?! Who gave you the right to do so?! Do you believe that I will call the police now?!”The customer service consultant quickly comforted her, “Hello, please calm down first. Can you tell me the reason why you were banned?”Elaine said angrily, “A prompt suddenly popped up, saying that I insulted others. What does this mean?”The customer service consultant asked politely, “Madam, please provide me with your platform ID number of the cell phone number when you registered the account.”Elaine replied angrily, “It’s the number that I’m using to call you!”
Elaine was so angry with the other party that she felt all the blood rushing to her head in an instant. She could feel buzzing in her head. The extreme anger and grievance made her hands tremble involuntarily, and her upper and lower teeth could not stop shaking and making a clattering sound.Unexpectedly, the customer service consultant spoke up again and said, “Madam, how about this? Although it is indeed wrong for you to swear, I can understand your feelings to a certain extent. In order to make up for your bad experience, I can give you a coupon for a five-dollar discount when you spend more than two thousand dollars. The coupon has already been sent to your account. You can use it if you create promotional orders next time as long as the amount for the single transaction exceeds two thousand dollars.”Elaine could not hold back anymore at this moment, and her whole body shook angrily like a volcanic eruption as she yelled angrily, “Who wants your d*mn coupon?! Who cares about th
Claire did not expect that she was clearly here to comfort her mother but was misunderstood by her mother in the end. She was helpless and could only explain to Elaine, “Mom, that’s not what I meant...”Elaine waved her hand dejectedly and said, “Forget it, you don’t need to explain anything to me. Your explanation is just a cover-up. I know that you think that I don’t have the ability to do a live broadcast!”Claire sighed and said, “What do you think, then? I’ll support you if you feel that you still have a chance and you want to continue with the live broadcast, but there is one thing you should understand. You have to control your emotions well regardless of whether your live broadcast finally succeeds or fails. You cannot get angry just because you failed to accomplish something, otherwise, if your health suffers because of your anger, wouldn’t the loss outweigh the gain, then?”Although Elaine was aggressive and unreasonable, she could still distinguish the good and bad someti
Claire then said, “Mom, just speak up if you need me to do something. You don’t need to be so courteous with me.”Elaine said very seriously, “I want to go to Qi Temple in the morning tomorrow to pray. I want to ask Buddha Bodhisattva to bless me. I thought about it carefully, and it seems that things haven’t been very smooth for me lately ever since I went to the United States! If my luck is bad, my fortune certainly won’t be good, so I won’t have good luck with wealth either! How will I be able to earn money by selling goods on a live broadcast online, then?! So, I’d like to hurry up and take advantage of the time while my live broadcast room is still banned to go to the temple and pray.”Claire hesitated for a moment. She felt that it was inappropriate for her mother to go to the temple to pray to Buddha just to ask for blessings for her live broadcast, not to mention, she hadn’t been to the company for so long, so she really wanted to go back to the company to take a look.So, s
The next morning, when Scarlet Pinnacle Manor was still shrouded in a thin layer of mist, Vera, who was not wearing any makeup, tied her long hair into a ponytail and put on an inconspicuous summer dress as she headed to Mount Qi alone.Both Logan and Emmett had suggested that she bring bodyguards along with her to ensure her safety, but Vera had refused.One’s environment shouldn’t affect one’s ability to find inner peace. For Vera, since she had decided to study in Aurous Hill, she should start living in this city with confidence and boldness from now on.For a girl who traveled alone, even if she looked prettier than most, she would only attract attention but not suspicion.However, once the girl was accompanied by bodyguards or secretly followed by bodyguards all the way, once it was seen by people with malicious intent, it would inevitably arouse the other party’s suspicion.When the two saw her resolute attitude, they did not insist anymore.After Vera went down the mountai
Vera was proficient in the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams, and she also respected Buddhism and Taoism at the same time, so she was in awe of this ancient temple with a long history.When Vera arrived at the middle peak where Qi Temple was located, Claire and Elaine also happened to just arrive.In fact, the two had already parked the car, but Elaine had difficulty walking, so she climbed the stairs on crutches with Claire’s support and finally reached Qi Temple with much difficulty. As it was a working day, there were not many pilgrims and tourists who came to Qi Temple in the morning. Vera walked to the main hall, but she was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, she took out three incense sticks from her handbag and went outside the gate of the hall in front of the incense burner after igniting them.Vera held the three incense sticks to her forehead with both hands, bowed slightly, and said in a low voice, “To the ancestors of the Lavor family, your unfilial descendant, Ver
Elaine, who was praying, was suddenly interrupted by her daughter, so she said with some dissatisfaction, “Oh, I was just asking Buddha to bless me, so why are you disturbing me? Seriously...”Claire lowered her voice and reminded her, “How can you talk to Buddha like this?! You can ask for money if you want to, and Buddha will naturally help you achieve your wishes if he really manifests them, but why are you talking about your issues with my eldest aunt here? You’re even asking Buddha to punish her?!”“That’s right!” Elaine said very seriously, “I just want Buddha to punish her well! There are more than eight billion people in this world, and anyone can get rich aside from Hannah Queen!”After saying that, Elaine then said solemnly, “It is said that the Jade Emperor is in charge of our area, so the fact that Hannah was able to get rich is a dereliction of his duty. If he doesn’t take the initiative to correct this, we have to ask Buddha to criticize him!”Claire rubbed her temple
The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em
Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.
Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b
Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi
Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ
Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex
Helena didn't give Harrison a chance to resist. She pinched his cheeks on both sides, forcing his mouth to open. Then, she poured the water containing the dissolved Healing Pill directly into his mouth. Harrison was so scared that the blood drained from his face. He wanted to kick and struggle, but he was trembling profusely and couldn't do anything. The thought of Helena trying to poison him gave him a chill to the marrow. He wanted to spit out the water, but Helena didn't give him a chance. While the water was still in his mouth, she threw the glass aside with her other hand, grabbed his chin, and lifted it up, snarling, "Drink it!" The moment Harrison's chin was lifted, his esophagus directly opened. The water, which was not much, went straight down his esophagus into his stomach, and he literally drank it. Harrison's eyes were full of fear at this moment. He thought that he might not even have time to say goodbye before he died. The next second, when he felt a different k
Harrison scoffed when he heard Helena's suggestion. He snapped angrily, "I-I-I have the best medical team in the world, and t-they don't even dare say such a thing. W-Who do you think you are?!" Helena smirked and replied, "Your team can't cure you, but I can." With that, she took out the Healing Pill that Charlie had given her from her purse and said to Harrison, "This pill comes from the ancient and mysterious East. Once you take it, you'll be restored to your former self. To alleviate your concerns, I can let you take one-tenth of it for free before we discuss terms so that you can truly feel its effectiveness. After that, we can discuss the pricing." Harrison, without any hesitation, disdainfully replied, "I-I would never b-b-believe in such a r-ridiculous pill! T-T-This b-bullshit has no scientific ba-a-asis at all!" Helena sneered contemptuously, "If you believe in science so much, why are you afraid of the Qing Eliminating Society? Can they possibly be a match for your
Helena pursed her lips, looked at Harrison, and then looked at Julien, pretending to be hesitant to speak. Despite his paralyzed body, Harrison was still as sly and smart as ever, so he looked at Julien and said, "Julien, clear the room. I want to talk to Her Majesty alone." Knowing that Harrison was trying to give him a boost, Julien immediately said, "Okay, Dad!" After that, he quickly asked the doctor to leave. Before leaving, he turned and said to Harrison, "Dad, you have all the time in the world. Please have a nice chat with Her Majesty. I'll ask everyone to keep a distance of 20 meters from the room. Please rest assured." Harrison nodded in satisfaction and flicked in the air at him twice, motioning for him to leave. Julien gleefully closed the door and promptly urged everyone to stay 20 meters away from the room, including himself. Seeing that the room was clear, Helena cut to the chase. As she looked at Harrison on the bed, she stated, "Mr. Harrison, the main reaso
