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
Kaeden hurriedly asked, “What did Miss Jasmine say?”Christian replied, “She didn’t give me a clear answer. She said that she wanted to think about it. I think that she wants to report this matter to our benefactor first and ask for his opinion.”Kaeden slapped his thighs and cried out, “Oh, Christian! It should have taken you more than half an hour to drive back here. Did Miss Jasmine send you a reply yet?”Christian said, “Not yet.”Kaeden was a little disappointed and sighed as he said, “It seems that our benefactor is most likely not in Aurous Hill…”Christian nodded and said, “I share the same thoughts as you. If she takes a long time to reply, I’m guessing that there is a high probability that our benefactor is not in Aurous Hill.”With that said, Christian added, “When I was talking to Miss Jasmine, she mentioned that our benefactor had left Aurous Hill as well. I was wondering if our benefactor had continued staying abroad after the incident in New York.”Kaeden smacked
After Merlin was done speaking, Keith, whose condition had improved greatly over the past few days and whose memory had gradually begun to recover, suddenly said with a serious expression, “Merlin is right! We used to deny everything based on intuition too easily. That’s why we haven’t been able to find Charlie even after so many years! Sometimes, when doing things, we have to go against our own intuition!”Christian nodded and said, “After my sister’s accident, we searched Aurous Hill for a while but did not find Charlie’s whereabouts. We intuitively judged that Charlie must have left Aurous Hill at the time. Since then, we’ve always looked for Charlie outside of Aurous Hill, but we’ve been searching for twenty years with no results. Perhaps Charlie never left Aurous Hill in the first place!” Kaeden was silent for a moment and then suddenly raised his head and frowned as he said, “Now that I think about it, there are really unfathomable depths in Aurous Hill! If nothing else, based
Zachary dug out the three magical instruments that Charlie had given him from the smelly soil next to the latrine using a shovel in his hand. These three magical instruments had been buried together with the rotten and smelly pig offal for two days. There was a pungent smell as soon as the magical instruments were dug out.Zachary pinched his nose and picked out the three magical instruments from the soil, then carefully brushed the dirt around the magical instruments with a soft brush and wiped them carefully with a dry towel. He then held the magical instruments under his nose and smelled them vigorously.By this time, the fishy smell of blood had faded a lot. According to Zachary’s previous experience of selling antiques, this smell was very close to the smell of a new jade dug out from new tombs. Objects from new tombs, especially jade objects that were buried close to the body, would typically have a faint fishy odor for a period of time after they had been dug out from the
