Chapter 5831

Author: Lord Leaf
Sophie’s words immediately caused Gideon to break out in a cold sweat. He did not doubt the authenticity of Sophie’s words because for him, he really could not think of any special significance that Violet Group would have for Sophie.

In his opinion, if he missed the opportunity for Sophie’s acquisition, he might just end up working until he was seventy years old and then pass the business on to his son.

Even Gideon himself did not know what his company would look like when he turned seventy. He had no idea whether the scale of the entire group and his entire family's industries would grow or shrink in a few years.

However, one thing he was very clear about was that if he sold the company now and got five hundred million dollars in cash, after transferring the equity and deducting the tax calculated at 20%, he would still have five hundred and sixty million dollars left.

These five hundred and sixty million dollars would be enough to ensure that he and his descendants could live

    So, just as he got into the car and was ready to go home after work, he hung up Gideon's call and immediately headed to the main gate of the base to wait. At the same time, Charlie also received a call from Sophie. As soon as the call was connected, Sophie respectfully said, “Mr. Wade, Violet Group has received my intention money, and the acquisition has been finalized. The final transaction price is seven hundred million dollars. I've already informed the person in charge of the base and told him your car license plate number. You can head there directly. He'll be waiting for you at the gate and will follow your orders.”Charlie was surprised by Sophie's efficiency. In his opinion, it was rare for a girl to handle things so efficiently. Therefore, he said to Sophie, “Thank you for your hard work, Miss Schulz. Consider this money owed to you. However, the situation is special now, so I won't transfer the money to you for the time being. After I finish my urgent matters, I'll figur

    Although Charlie didn't understand tea leaves, he could still grasp Vera's special attachment to the Mother of Pu'er Tea. To him, the Mother of Pu'er Tea was a kind of spiritual anchor for Vera, which spanned three centuries. Therefore, he understood why Vera longed to recreate the taste of the Mother of Pu'er Tea someday.Thus, he said to Vera, “Once the handover at Mount Twint is complete, you can consider this place your breeding ground. You can utilize your experience to see if you can breed better tea varieties.”Vera nodded and said, “Breeding is a complicated matter. I don't really understand scientific breeding, but with traditional breeding, it might take at least ten years or more to see results.”Charlie reassured her, “It’s okay. If you manage to breed it, it'll be a blessing for all tea enthusiasts, but even if you can't, you've already tasted the Mother of Pu'er Tea, and its taste will always remain in your memory.”Vera smiled slightly and said, “Mmhmm. You're righ

    At this moment, the security guard stepped into the middle of the road and stopped Charlie's car, saying, “Young man, why are you back again? Didn't I tell you before that you need to make an appointment with the group first?”Jeevan was surprised to see the security guard approaching the guests and implying that they had been there before. He quickly went up to the security guard and pulled him aside, then asked Charlie, “Hello, Sir, are you the expert sent by Schulz Group?”Charlie pointed to Vera, who was beside him, and said with a smile, “I'm not the expert. This lady here is the real expert.”The security guard looked puzzled and said, “Young man, when did you two become experts?”Jeevan hurriedly said, “Mr. Dmitri, why are you talking to the guests like that? These distinguished guests are here to guide and inspect our work. You shouldn't interfere. Open the gate quickly!”Although Mr. Dmitri was surprised, Jeevan's authority made him comply, and he quickly opened the gat

    In Jeevan's eyes, Charlie and Vera were equivalent to his God of Wealth, so if they wanted to go up the mountain, he naturally had to cooperate fully.So, he immediately said to them, “Please wait a moment, distinguished guests. I'll gather some people and bring more lighting equipment to accompany you up!”Charlie waved his hand and said, “No need. We're still in the stage of secret inspection. We don't want any news to leak, so you don't need to arrange anything deliberately. Let the others finish work and rest. Withdraw all the staff and security guards from Mount Violet. In addition, have the security guards shut down all the surveillance cameras on Mount Violet. We'll just go up and take a look.”In the past, Jeevan would never have agreed to such a request. Although the Mother of Pu’er Tea on Mount Twint was not the best Pu'er tea tree, it was still famous in Yorkshire Hill. It was also the core competitiveness of the entire Violet Group. If someone stole its branches to graft

    “Furthermore, in the past, tea leaves did not grow in such good condition. Now, every tea leaf is extremely plump with a very good color. What's even more impressive is the ability to control pests very well, so the yield of the final product is also very high. With more growth and less damage, the overall output is much higher than in ancient times.”“In recent years, the breeding strategy for tea leaves has been like this: the higher the yield, the better; the more perfect the appearance, the better; the stronger the resistance to pests, the better. Coupled with fertilizers and pesticides, the output efficiency per unit area has naturally increased exponentially.”At this point, Vera then added, “However, although the yield and product rate have increased using this direction to continuously cultivate new varieties, the taste of tea leaves is actually declining. If there is a chance in the future, we can try to cultivate new varieties in the opposite direction to see if we can brin

    Vera had always been puzzled by why Charlie had been unexpectedly kind to her since the moment he was suddenly brought to the top floor of Scarlet Pinnacle Manor by the ring. He not only gave her a share of all of his pills but also promised longer lives to Mr. Raven and the others. Charlie had even put down everything he had on hand in order to accompany her all the way to Yorkshire Hill. All she wanted was to visit her parents' graves on Mount Twint, but she didn't expect Charlie to buy Violet Group which owned Mount Twint directly. Charlie even planned to carry out large-scale renovations here to facilitate her future visits to her parents' graves.Vera herself was extremely wealthy as well, but in her opinion, Charlie’s actions were completely immeasurable by money. He must care a lot about her to be so attentive and meticulous.Vera's speculation was not wrong. Charlie did indeed care a lot about Vera. The debt of saving his life was naturally one aspect of it, and on the ot

    Charlie, who was aside, then spoke up, “Okay then, Mr. Windsor, we'll leave it to you here. We have other matters to attend to, so we'll take our leave first.”Jeevan asked in surprise, “It's already dark now, so you don’t have to leave in such a hurry. I've arranged some good food and wine in the dining hall. Why don't you two eat something first? I'll take care of your accommodation tonight!”Charlie smiled faintly and said, “No need. Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Windsor, but we really need to hit the road. We won't delay our time here any longer.”When Jeevan saw that the two had made up their minds to leave, he could only nod and say, “In that case, I won't keep you two distinguished guests any longer.”Charlie shook hands with him and led Vera to the car. In the darkness, the car drove away from Violet Group’s factory and headed toward Banna.It was not difficult to find the Heavenly Lake where Vera once lived. There was only one true Heavenly Lake in Banna named the Ja

    Charlie nodded and said, “Then, let's park the car at the entrance of the village and walk down.”“Great!” Vera was already eager. After wandering around for more than three hundred years, this place was still her favorite, and it was the place she missed the most.Charlie followed Vera’s guidance and parked the car by the roadside a few hundred meters from the village entrance. He then grabbed the camping gear and walked down the hillside with Vera to the edge of Heavenly Lake below.Vera walked nearly two miles along the edge of Heavenly Lake under the moonlight and starlight, and she finally located the exact spot where the Mother of Pu’er Tea had grown.She pointed to a slightly elevated patch of barren yellow soil on the shore and said, “That spot should be where the Mother of Pu’er Tea originally grew.”After looking around, Charlie noticed that under the moonlight, the surroundings were filled with grass and trees except for this barren patch of land with a diameter of over

    Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

    "That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

    In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega

    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,
