Charlie hummed in response and said, “Oh, by the way, you can seize the opportunity to reveal some news to him when the time comes.”Jasmine hurriedly asked, “What news?”Charlie smiled faintly and said, “Just tell him that I asked you to pass a message to him, telling them that the incident in New York was just a trivial matter, so they don’t have to take it to heart.”Jasmine did not know what had happened in New York, but she did not ask any more questions after hearing what Charlie had said and simply responded respectfully, “Okay, Master Wade. I will convey this message to them in due course when I meet your uncle.”Charlie reminded her, “Remember to mention it before he makes the condition. It’d be best if you conveyed this message to him when he asks you for information about me. I’m certain that no matter what the conditions he had prepared for you are, he will definitely double it after you say this!”Charlie was well aware of his uncle’s motive for wanting to pay Jasmine
When Christian saw Jasmine, he smiled humbly and said, “Hello, Miss Jasmine, nice to meet you again. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me.”Jasmine said with a smile, “You’re welcome.”After saying that, Jasmine invited Christian to sit down in the sofa area. She then sat across from him and asked curiously, “Mr. Christian, I wonder why you’re here to see me this time?”Christian hurriedly said, “Miss Jasmine, I’ve always felt embarrassed because I acted rashly and broke the rules of the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill last time. I came here today to specifically express my gratitude and to also apologize to both you and the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill.”Jasmine smiled and said, “Mr. Christian, you didn’t have to come all the way here to apologize. The auction house already responded and dealt with your behavior during the incident back then, and you’ve already paid the corresponding price for your action. Thus, there’s no need for you to apologize ag
Christian suddenly fell silent. He knew that he could not decide whether he believed it or not as he would not have any way to ask for proof either way.He could only explain in an extremely sincere tone in desperation, “Miss Jasmine, the Ackers suffered a mishap some time ago. Fortunately, a mysterious man came to help us at the most critical moment. This mysterious man even saved a friend of mine who was dying. I came here this time to verify whether our benefactor and the gentleman that you mentioned are the same person.”With that said, he had a pleading expression as he said, “Miss Jasmine, you must have a way to contact the gentleman. I don’t ask that you give me his contact information, but I hope that you can help me verify this matter with him…”Jasmine smiled faintly and nodded lightly. She then looked at Christian and said in a calm voice, “Mr. Christian, you are talking about the time when the Ackers and Chief Lammy were in danger in New York and were rescued, right?”C
Jasmine said, “Please speak up, Mr. Christian.”Christian said, “I have a nephew who has been missing for twenty years now. His name is Charlie Wade, and he’s twenty-eight years old this year. He is the only son of my sister, Ashley, and my brother-in-law, Curtis. The Ackers have been searching all over the world for him for twenty years, but we have always been unable to find him. Since our benefactor is so powerful, please ask him to help us find Charlie’s whereabouts on the account that my parents are already old and are eager to see their grandson. Once we find Charlie, the Ackers will definitely give half of our family’s assets to him!”Jasmine was stunned when she heard this. She did not expect that the Ackers would be willing to give up half of their family assets in order to find Charlie. However, Christian and the Ackers were not making empty promises. Before Christian had gone over, the Ackers had held a family meeting to discuss this matter. Judging from the situation of
It was not surprising that commercial real estate projects worth billions of dollars would leave Jasmine in shock, as a project on such a large-scale was rare even globally. The total cost of Burj Khalifa in Dubai was only one and a half billion US dollars. It seemed that the only building with an overall cost exceeding five billion US dollars was Apple’s headquarters building.For the Ackers, although its overall strength was not as good as the Rothschild or the Saudi royal family, the Ackers’ real assets were still slightly better than Apple. Spending eight billion US dollars to invest in commercial real estate in Aurous Hill was enough to build a huge small city. Even if the Ackers were to move their entire headquarters here, it would not cost so much money.However, before Christian came here, the Ackers had already reached a consensus. Jasmine had a close relationship with the owner of the Rejuvenating Pill. Since Christian was here to see her, he naturally had to show enoug
Christian said with a smile, “Although Aurous Hill is still just a new first-tier city, I’m very optimistic about Aurous Hill’s future development. Perhaps this place might become the focus of the world in the future.”Jasmine asked doubtfully, “Why are you so optimistic about Aurous Hill, Mr. Christian?”Christian said seriously, “Miss Jasmine, although you’ve only held the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill once, it made me realize the appeal of this divine pill to the super wealthy. Every city is looking for its own characteristics and positioning nowadays. Take the United States for example, New York is characterized by finance, San Francisco is characterized by technology, Los Angeles is characterized by manufacturing, Houston is characterized by aerospace, and Detroit is characterized by automobiles manufacturing.”With that said, Christian said with confidence, “With the support of the auction for the Rejuvenating Pill, Aurous Hill will definitely be able to attract more top i
“Furthermore, I’ve also heard of The Apothecary Pharmaceutical that is in Aurous Hill. Although this company has developed a small number of samples, they are all shocking products with excellent medicinal effects. With this pharmaceutical company in Aurous Hill, its popularity in the medicine and healthcare industry will definitely be of great help in the future.”Jasmine did not expect that Christian would have noticed The Apothecary Pharmaceutical as well, so she could not help but feel a little surprised as she asked Christian, “Mr. Christian, you know about The Apothecary Pharmaceutical as well?”Christian nodded without hiding anything and said directly, “I heard that The Apothecary Pharmaceutical previously launched an anti-cancer miracle drug called the Apothecary Restoration Pill. A batch of the drugs were given to the FDA for clinical trials. It is said that the batch of pills have been regarded as strategic reserve materials by the White House because of its excellent effi
Under normal circumstances, it was difficult for others to get a chance to have a share in any of the projects undertaken by the Ackers even if they rushed to buy the shares with money. Moreover, even if some of the Ackers’ projects were open to external investment, not everyone could get the investment share. The Ackers had always been strict in selecting its business partners, and one would not be able to invest even if one had money, as long as the person’s assets did not meet the threshold requirements. What’s more, if outsiders wanted to invest in the Ackers’ projects, it was equivalent to investing in a wealth management fund. Even if they got the opportunity, they would have to pay a certain percentage of management fee to the Ackers, who was the trader, and this management fee had to reach at least twenty-five percent. If it was a project that was worth ten billion US dollars and the Ackers offered a forty percent quota, it seemed that each percentage point corresponded t
