Emmett explained, “The Schulz family and the Wade family have been fighting both openly and in secret for so many years. They even had very unpleasant relationships in the early years. The Schulz family even took the lead in forming the Anti-Wade Alliance in Eastcliff back then just to work against the Wade family. Later, when Curtis Wade and his wife passed away unexpectedly, the Wade family suffered serious repercussions, and the Schulz family then became the most powerful family in Oskia and has always dominated the Wade family. It can be said that the two families have a long-standing grudge, so I don’t understand why Charlie would be working for Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group...”Vera shook her head and said, “Your thinking is wrong. It’s not about why Charlie is working for Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group, but it’s about whether Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group is working for Charlie.”Neither Logan nor Emmett could understand the significance of Charlie’s mastery of Reiki.Ho

“Charlie conquered the Schulz family and Ten Thousand Armies?!”Emmett was horrified when he heard this and said, “Miss, this... this is a little exaggerated, isn’t it? The Schulz family has greater strength compared to the Wade family, and Ten Thousand Armies’ strength cannot be measured in terms of money. They have tens of thousands of mercenaries, and it is said that they have already invested and built their own permanent base in the Middle East now. How could Charlie have conquered this kind of organization?!”Vera said faintly, “Charlie’s strength is far from what Ten Thousand Armies can compare to. Otherwise, there would have been no way for Charlie to survive when the Schulz family and Ten Thousand Armies attacked Mount Wintry together. Although we don’t know exactly what happened on Mount Wintry that day, we can see from the results that Charlie was not affected in any way, which is enough to prove that the Schulz family and Ten Thousand Armies failed completely on Mount Win

“That’s strange...” Vera frowned. “Why would he pass the position as head of the family to his granddaughter if he has five sons? Not to mention that his granddaughter is a woman, but he even crossed over his children’s generation directly and chose his granddaughter to succeed him. Wouldn’t that easily cause dissatisfaction among his five sons? Even Sophie’s father would never be willing to accept the fact that he was skipped over directly.”Having said that, Vera then added, “Even if Cadfan values and thinks highly of Sophie, he should also pass the position as head of the family over to Sophie’s father first before letting his father pass the position onto her. This way, he would also be able to solidify Sophie’s position. Otherwise, how could Sophie keep her father, four uncles, and two aunts under control after ascending to the top directly? Even if she has Cadfan’s support, it would be difficult for Sophie to truly control the Schulz family.”Emmett thought of something and sai

“Romantic debt?”After listening to Vera’s sentiments, Emmett suddenly remembered something and spoke up, “Miss, I have the impression that the current head of the Ito family is also a girl, and her age shouldn’t be too far off from Sophie. Her name is Ito Nanako.”“It’s also a girl?” Vera could not help but wonder in shock, “What’s going on these days? Is it popular for girls to be the head of the family? Could it be that she is also connected to Charlie in some way?”Emmett hurriedly said, “Oh, by the way, Miss, you asked me to look into Charlie’s entry and exit records, and I found that he stayed in Japan for a while last year. Nanako took over the position of head of the family after he went to Japan. During that time, the three top-ranked families in Japan fought, and the Ito family had the last laugh, but Ito Yahiko lost both his legs because of that incident. Since then, he has retired behind the scenes to let his daughter take charge of the overall situation.”With that sai

Emmett exclaimed, “This... This is too unreal, right? They are people who live together daily, so how could they not know Charlie’s true identity?!”Vera said faintly, “In fact, they made a mistake just like you.”Emmett hurriedly asked, “What mistake is it? Miss, I hope that you can explain it to me...”Vera said seriously, “All of you instinctively do not want to think of Charlie as strong and powerful. You constantly feel that he can’t be that powerful, that he couldn’t have conquered Ten Thousand Armies, the life and death of the Schulz family, and that he couldn’t possibly control the Ito family as well as those Japanese families. You think that it’s impossible for him to have done all those incredible things by himself. You wouldn’t have known of Charlie’s true identity if I hadn’t gone to Eastcliff to find you. You probably wouldn’t have seen through his true identity even if you spent day and night with him, then.”Having said that, Vera added, “But I’m different from you.

Meanwhile, at Aurous University. Although Logan’s vehicles could enter and exit Aurous University at will, Marianne got off the car at the roadside a few hundred meters in advance in order to keep a low profile. When Marianne came to the school gate, she wanted to take the initiative to explain her intentions to the security guard and ask them to allow her to enter, but unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the gate, a young woman greeted her and asked enthusiastically, “Hello, you must be Miss Marianne Long, right?”Marianne asked in surprise, “And you are?”The other party quickly introduced herself, “Hello, Miss Marianne. I’m Snow Clifford from the Human Resources Department of Aurous University. I came here to wait for you in advance because I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to find the place when you arrive.”Marianne hurriedly said, “Thank you so much for specially making this trip.”Snow said with a smile, “It’s no trouble at all. You’re the talent that our direct

Moreover, Marianne’s appearance, figure, and temperament were all one in a million. This kind of gimmick of using beautiful class tutors and lecturers to create a hype was too easy on today’s social media. If those so-called ‘beautiful lecturers’ who had undergone plastic surgery could have countless fans, then Marianne, who was a natural and unadorned top beauty, would definitely arouse more discussion and pursuit. As everyone was extraordinarily satisfied with Marianne, the director of the Human Resources Department of Aurous University was afraid that there would be changes in this matter, so she wrote a sentence on a piece of paper during the interview which read: ‘Too outstanding, must be targeted by many universities, so it is recommended to dispense with re-examination and confirm her as soon as possible.’This lady was just the person in charge of the Human Resources Department, and the decision whether to hire Marianne or not lay in the hands of one of the vice deans.

Marianne, who had been confirmed to be hired, was trotting and jogging all the way when she left Aurous University. Everyone did not expect that such an intellectual beauty with a cold expression would be jumping on the roadside like a child. The huge contrast was truly astonishing.Marianne left Aurous University, walked a few hundred meters, then turned a corner. Madam Marilyn and the driver were still waiting in the Rolls-Royce in the parking space by the side of the road.When Madam Marilyn saw Marianne, she got out of the car immediately and said respectfully with a smile, “Miss Marianne, you seem extremely happy, so it seems that you must be very satisfied with the outcome of the interview today.”Marianne was overjoyed and said with a smile, “Madam Marilyn, I passed the interview and received the offer of employment with your auspicious blessing! I will change my itinerary and sign a formal contract with them in the morning tomorrow so that I can wait to start my employment

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

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
