“Eight months?”Sophie exclaimed, “Wouldn’t you have to travel at least eight to nine kilometers every day if you want to reach Jordan Temple within eight months?!” Sophie nodded and said, “Eight to nine kilometers is just the minimum. If the condition is good and the weather is good, I will have to travel a little faster so I can have more time to enjoy for a while when I pass by places with beautiful and majestic scenery.”Sophie felt distressed again. Helen turned around and said to her, “Sophie, don’t disturb your brother and let him take a good bath.”Sophie nodded slightly and said to Jaime, “Brother, take a good bath first. We will wait for you outside.”Jaime hummed in response. After Sophie had closed the bathroom door, Jaime took off his tattered clothes and prepared to take a good bath.However, after standing in front of the bathtub, he looked at the clear warm water inside, then took his dirty clothes to the shower room at the side after hesitating for a moment.He

Vera wanted to build a good relationship with Marianne, so she took the initiative to accompany Marianne to Aurous University to sign the contract, but she did not expect that Marianne would want to come to Thompson First after signing the contract. This decision really shocked her.Although Vera had come to Aurous Hill in order to find Charlie, she was not ready to meet Charlie at the moment, so she was absolutely unwilling to come to Thompson First. Fortunately, the back row of the SUV was covered with privacy tinting, so she stayed in the car and waited for Marianne, using the excuse that she was a little unwell. After Marianne had gotten out of the elevator, Madam Marilyn opened the sliding door on the right side of the back of the car. Marianne got into the car and said to the two with a smile, “Sorry to keep the both of you waiting. Let’s go.”Vera heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “It wasn’t that long, it was just five to six minutes.”Marianne nodded and ask

Nanako was following behind Charlie, and when she saw Charlie suddenly stop and frown, she hurriedly asked him, “What’s wrong, Mr. Wade?”Charlie said with a confused expression, “I don’t know either...”After saying that, he subconsciously took the ring out.The ring was still shaking like a Parkinson’s patient when it was between Charlie’s fingers, but after Charlie took it out, it gradually became calm and motionless again.Charlie was even more puzzled. He could not help but wonder, ‘Why are you acting up again? Are you feeling hungry again? Are you trying to cheat me out of my Reiki again?’When Nanako saw Charlie looking at the ring in his hand with a puzzled expression, she asked again, “Charlie-kun, is there anything special about this ring?”Charlie came back to his senses and casually smiled as he said, “It’s nothing special. It’s just a broken ring that I picked up from the walkway earlier. I’ve been hesitating as to whether I should throw it away or not.”Nanako purs

Vera casually said, “It’s that handsome guy who walked past our car in the underground parking lot just now. He’s quite tall and handsome.”“I-Is that so...?” Marianne panicked and said, “I didn’t see him. I was a little distracted just now...”“Okay.” Vera laughed and said, “I’ll be sure to tell you as soon as possible when a handsome guy passes by next time.”“Okay...” Marianne subconsciously answered as she thought that she had fooled Vera successfully.Her series of performances also made Vera even more convinced of her previous judgment that Marianne had come to Aurous Hill for Charlie. Vera did not say anything else but took out her cell phone and typed the words ‘Ito Nanako’ on the search engine. She had already read all of Charlie’s files before and had carefully deduced Charlie’s identity, experience, current business map, and power blueprint.She guessed that Charlie must be leading Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group behind the scenes, so she paid special attention and

When Charlie saw Yahiko once again, he found that he was in very good condition.To Yahiko, the significance of having legs again was comparable to having a new life, so it also made him cherish the present even more.Yahiko was very enthusiastic and respectful when he saw Charlie. He came out personally to welcome Charlie into the house, then served tea to Charlie. Although he was busy walking around the whole time, his excitement could not be concealed at all.Hiroshi, who was aside, was also very respectful as he maintained a bowing posture at a ninety-degree angle.Charlie greeted the two of them, looked at the house curiously, and then said with a smile, “I’ve lived in Thompson First for so long, but this is my first time coming to this high-rise building.”With that said, he looked at the river outside through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and sighed as he said, “The scenery here is really beautiful! Mr. Tanaka, you have really good taste.”Hiroshi, w

After saying that, he pointed at the tuna sashimi on the exquisite dinner plate and said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, these sashimi are from the two cheeks of the bluefin tuna. The auction price for this fish is three million US dollars, but such little meat from the two cheeks already cost hundreds of thousands of US dollars. When converted, a piece of sashimi would cost tens of thousands of US dollars, and it cannot be found even in the best Michelin restaurants.”Yahiko was not just talking nonsense. In Japan’s society of luxury and money, the price of truly top-notch products could be outrageously expensive.The highest recorded auction price for bluefin tuna was bought for an extravagant price of several million US dollars. Most of the meat from such a fish would go to high-end restaurants. It seemed that one would be able to eat this top-level ingredient at a high-end restaurant, and one would be able to eat a piece of sashimi from this fish in a restaurant for just a few hundred US

Charlie, Yahiko, and Hiroshi exchanged glasses, while Nanako stood by and kept refilling his sake for him.Interestingly, Nanako only refilled Charlie’s sakem and Emi only refilled Yahiko’s sake. Therefore, Hiroshi could only refill his own sake.In Charlie’s opinion, the so-called ‘Laughing Dragon and Nine Heavens’ did not taste good at all. Aside from its pure rice fragrance, this thing was really lackluster. If he wanted to feel slightly drunk, the alcohol content should be at least 40%. For Charlie, this kind of sake was no different from drinking tap water. However, since it was a national treasure that Yahiko had brought all the way with him, Charlie naturally accompanied and drank with him.Charlie was also full of praise for the top-notch sashimi prepared by Emi. In fact, he felt that sashimi itself did not have any taste, and he was only tasting the texture of different fishes. There was not much difference in the overall taste after dipping it in soy sauce and wasabi.

Charlie nodded and said, “That’s good. I was not in Aurous Hill during this period of time, but I probably will not be going anywhere soon. Please feel free to contact me if you need help with anything in Aurous Hill.”“Okay!” Helen was not overly polite and agreed with a smile. She then invited Charlie into the house.Charlie could not help but feel nostalgic as he entered the house.When his parents had rented this mansion back then, they had also restored it carefully, and it looked the same as it was now. Although it still looked very rustic, it gave people a refreshing feeling.After twenty years of idleness, this mansion was once dilapidated, but after Helen’s careful restoration, it seemed as if everything had been restored to the state it was in twenty years ago. For a certain moment, Charlie even felt as if he had gone back to the time when he was just seven or eight years old when his parents had just settled down in Aurous Hill. The family of three had lived an ordinar

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

Charlie smiled. "Who, me? You'd laugh at me, but it was only after Steven found me that I learned to drive. I never bought my own car either and only had the two supercars gifted to me, and I only drove those a handful of times at best. Even now, I'm driving the BMW 5-series I bought for my father-in-law."Then, he remembered Marianne Long and said, "I did drive a friend's Tesla back to Hong Kong, but it was only for a short time, and I didn't manage to look into their so-called assisted driving system."Yolden thought about it and smiled, "But y'know… how would I describe the car, specifically? Have you heard of Mario Balotelli, the soccer player?"Every man present aside from Keith nodded—Mario had been a philosopher on the soccer field, and even those who didn't watch soccer were familiar with his name.Nodding, Yolden continued, "The way I see it, Mario has been a player with top-class hardware but third-rate software. Give him Messi or Ronaldinho's intelligence, and he'd be a

Kaeden then asked, "Well, professor, how do you suppose we overtake the competition at turning points? Or indeed, what qualifies as succeeding in that respect?"Yolden thought about it, formulating his words before explaining, "My personal understanding of the matter isn't simply to aim for turning points. Instead, it's things like staying on the inner lane of the race track and reaching the finish line faster by going where no other race car had gone before—or indeed where people never thought to go before."That's the case for new energy cars. Our fossil fuel energies have constantly lost to other countries and would always come up short. But with new energy cars, we can change the rules altogether."We can't catch up to their engine tech? Then we won't—there's no way they are masters in electric-powered engines, are they? They've spent decades on internal combustion engines and haven't the first clue about electric-powered engines."So, while everyone hasn't turned all their foc
