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
Jasmine walked Christian to the door of her office and then asked her assistant to send Christian downstairs while she returned to the office and called Charlie. Jasmine then reported everything that Christian had just mentioned to Charlie in detail over the phone. After hearing Jasmine’s words, Charlie could not help but smile and say, “It seems that my uncle is indeed quite sincere. If these two collaborations between Moore Group and the Ackers can be implemented, the market value of Moore Group may double or increase by even more within the next year.”With that said, Charlie added, “In addition, my uncle’s ideas about the development of healthcare in Aurous Hill almost coincide with my previous plan. With my current ability, if I want to help Aurous Hill improve its international influence and attract more capital, the best way would be through healthcare. If it is done well, it might take a few years for Aurous Hill to become the fifth first-tier city in Oskia.”As Charlie spo
Christian kept waiting for a call from Jasmine’s assistant on the way back to Willow Manor. He knew that the conditions he offered to Jasmine today were very sincere, and Jasmine would definitely ask his benefactor for instructions before giving him a clear answer.However, he did not know where his benefactor was at the moment. He did not know whether he was in Aurous Hill or Oskia. Therefore, Christian speculated that if his benefactor was in Oskia or even in Aurous Hill, Jasmine would definitely contact him as soon as possible and report this matter to him. Jasmine would get someone to reply to him quickly as to whether she would agree to his conditions, then.If the reply came quickly, his benefactor might be in Aurous Hill.However, Jasmine still hadn’t replied to Christian even after he arrived at Willow Manor. When he returned home, the Acker family members immediately put down everything on hand and approached him as they waited for him to give them the latest update on th
