Chapter 5701

Penulis: Lord Leaf
Charlie changed into his own clothes early in the morning and instructed Albert to settle Ruby down at Champs Elys Resort. Meanwhile, Charlie and Vera took the portrait of Marcius and boarded a helicopter back to Vera’s residence at Scarlet Pinnacle Manor.

Meanwhile, a Boeing 777-200LR took off from Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, as it headed to Australia. Although this was the world's longest-range aircraft, its maximum range had not yet reached eighteen thousand kilometers. Therefore, the pilot’s flight plan was to first fly to Melbourne, Australia, refuel there, and then fly to Aurous Hill.

Apart from the crew, there were only four passengers on the entire plane at the moment. These four people were Tarlon and the three elders who had just come out of their cultivation in seclusion.

When these three elders went into seclusion more than a hundred years ago, the people of Oskia had just cut off their braids, and they only knew that foreigners had created planes that could

Aviation fuel is basically a refined form of kerosene with a lot of the impurities removed so that the jet engine is not damaged. Apart from that it’s not much different to regular kerosene.

The plane is a charter plane or one that belongs to the QES. What is the objection of shooting it down? It would be a different matter if it were a civilian airliner with other innocent passengers on board.

    After Vera landed the helicopter on the top courtyard of the villa, she said to Charlie, “Young Master, please come with me. I will prepare the ink and paper for you to write on Master Marcius Stark's portrait.”Charlie asked curiously, “You want me to write the caption on it?” “Yes.” Vera said with a smile, “If Fleur sees my handwriting, she might suspect that we're bluffing.”Charlie was perplexed and asked, “You haven't met for centuries. How would she recognize your handwriting?”Vera pursed her lips and said with a smile, “After you saved me last time, I left her a few words before leaving Northern Europe. So, it's safer for you to do the writing.”Charlie nodded and said, “Okay. I’ll do it, then.”After entering the study room on the first floor, Vera approached the long desk and prepared the ink for Charlie. Charlie picked up a brush and then wrote about Marcius’ life on the top right corner of his portrait.After he was done writing, he chuckled in a self-deprecating ma

    Vera also felt relieved when she saw Charlie looking so confident. She glanced at the time and said, “Young Master, it's almost eight o'clock now. When do you plan to go home?”Charlie said, “My father-in-law usually leaves for the Calligraphy and Painting Association at nine o'clock. It's quite close to my home. Miss Lavor, there's no need for you to send me back. The helicopter makes too much noise in the downtown area, so I'll go back by myself.”Vera insisted, “Young Master, how can I let you go back alone? Why don’t you let me drive you back instead?”Charlie hurriedly declined, “It's really not necessary. I can walk by myself.”Vera sighed softly and said, “Young Master, if you leave like this and pass by the courtyard downstairs, the servants might misunderstand when they see you leaving my courtyard in the morning.”Charlie asked awkwardly, “What do you think is appropriate then, Miss Lavor?”Vera said, “Young Master, please wait a moment. I'll make the arrangements.”Ch

    Mr. Raven nodded excitedly and said, “Miss, you can rest assured. I understand! I completely understand!”As he said that, he could not help but look at Charlie and say in an excited tone, “Mr. Wade, if I may be so bold to speak up, you are the only outsider that Miss has truly opened up her heart to in over three hundred years…”When Mr. Raven realized that his words did not sound right, he hastily explained, “What I mean is, you are the only adult that Miss has opened up her heart to in all these years. The rest of us were raised and have served by Miss since childhood, and Miss only gradually revealed her secrets to us after seeing our good nature and loyalty.”Charlie smiled awkwardly. He was unsure of how to respond, so he diverted the topic, saying, “Mr. Raven, you don't need to address yourself as a servant in front of me. I am truly unworthy…”Mr. Raven responded without hesitation, “No, no, no. Since my enlightenment, I vowed to stay by Miss's side for a lifetime, to serve

    Upon hearing Mr. Raven’s words, both Logan and Emmett were so shocked that they couldn't speak at all. They instinctively stood up, and Emmett looked at Mr. Raven and blurted out, “Mr. Raven, you said Miss has fallen in love. Who has she fallen in love with?”Mr. Raven whispered, “Do you remember what our biggest wish used to be?”Logan replied without hesitation, “Of course! It was for Miss to find her true love, settle down, and not be so lonely for the rest of her life!”Emmett sighed and said, “That’s right! For decades, I've been thinking that before we turned ten, Miss played with us. When we were between our tens to twenties, we played with Miss, and even as we matured, Miss remained forever seventeen. We hoped that one day she'd find her life partner. Later, when we left Miss's side, for many years, sometimes without knowing her whereabouts, I still held onto that hope…”With that said, Emmett looked at Mr. Raven and asked, “Mr. Raven, you mentioned Miss falling in love.

    The three of them had similar personalities, good characters, and virtues. Even though they had chosen different paths in life, they had grown up together around Vera since childhood. This deepened their bond, making them feel like siblings.Emmett had held high positions before, and Logan had inherited a vast fortune. Both of them were very successful in life. On the other hand, Mr. Raven had stayed by Vera’s side as her butler for almost ninety years. This was seemingly without much achievement, but both Emmett and Logan admired him greatly.Over the years, Vera had adopted many children, but very few could stay by her side.Both Emmett and Logan had expressed their desire to stay with Vera, but she hadn’t agreed to it and eventually sent them away. Logan had taken over Vera’s business in Southeast Asia, whereas Vera had seen Emmett’s patriotic spirit and supported his return to serve their country.For the three of them, Vera’s identity and role were extremely special. In thei

    A few minutes later, all the servants of Scarlet Pinnacle Manor returned to their rooms. Mr. Raven, who was extremely attentive, even asked Logan to order the temporary shutdown of all surveillance in the villa. After all, this concerned his young lady’s reputation, so he naturally couldn't leave any risks.Once everything was arranged, Mr. Raven called Vera to report to her. Vera then said to Charlie, “Young Master, Mr. Raven and the others have already prepared everything. Shall we go downstairs?”Charlie nodded politely and said, “Thank you, Miss Lavor.”Vera smiled sweetly and sad, “Young Master, you don’t have to be so polite with me.”After putting away the painting that was completed with the calligraphy, Charlie walked out of the top courtyard of the villa with Vera. As they reached the courtyard gate, they saw three elderly people standing respectfully side by side at the end of the long stone steps below.To Charlie’s surprise, one of them was Emmett Sandsor, a prominent

    So, he spoke up and said, “Gentlemen, I still have some urgent matters to attend to today. After I resolve them, I will come to visit you again. By then, I will prepare some pills that can improve your health. I believe it will be helpful for you.”The three men were a bit stunned. They didn't know much about Charlie and they only knew that he was the miraculous benefactor mentioned by Vera. So, they didn't know what effects Charlie’s pills would have.At this moment, Vera, who was beside them, smiled and said, “Mr. Sandsor, I told you before that your opportunity lies in Aurous Hill. It seems that everything depends on Mr. Wade. Why don't you hurry and express your gratitude to Mr. Wade for saving your life?”Emmett suddenly widened his eyes with an incredulous expression. Vera then turned to the other two and said, “Mr. Raven, Mr. Carrick, Mr. Wade is giving both of you opportunities as well. What are you still waiting for?”At the same time, the three men suddenly came to their

    When Charlie returned to Thompson First, Jacob was arguing with Elaine. Charlie had just walked in holding the scroll containing Marcius’ portrait when he heard Jacob complaining, “You do nothing all day long, and you do not even prepare breakfast. It’s fine if you don't want to cook, but you should at least order some food for me when you get some for yourself. You don't leave anything for me at all after you’ve eaten your fill. I'm in a hurry to go to the association. You can't let me go hungry, right?” Elaine retorted confidently, “Haven't you heard of the phrase ‘Those who don't work don't eat’? Why don't you get up early and make breakfast for me, then? You must be dreaming if you want me to cook for you. Besides, do you think that I don’t need money to order food? If you give me eighty to a hundred thousand dollars a month as pocket money, I'd definitely arrange three meals a day for you without fail!”Jacob was annoyed and said angrily, “All you care about is money!”With

    Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

    Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

    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
