Chapter 5832

Author: Lord Leaf
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

Such a sexist remark. Why wouldn’t a girl handle things so efficiently? Compared to the useless Jacob, Sophie is so much more professional. The same could be said of Jasmine, Nanako, Kathleen etc

    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

    When Charlie saw Vera's horrified expression and noticed her rare nervousness as she spoke, he quickly asked her, “Miss Lavor, what do you think this is?!”Vera didn't speak. Her eyes were fixed on the rapidly thickening dark clouds in the sky. She murmured, “Well, these clouds seem chaotic, but there's a vague complex pattern to it. It feels… it feels like the Hexagram of Thunder from the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams…”“Hexagram of Thunder?” Charlie was shocked, and he exclaimed, “Do these clouds really represent a hexagram?”Vera nodded, murmuring, “The Hexagram of Thunder is always intricate. Ancient people would say ‘Thunder comes with trembling and laughter; it startles for miles without losing its essence’. When this hexagram appears, it signifies that something unexpected is about to happen, and it must be an earth-shattering event!”Charlie was even more surprised and couldn't help asking, “Who has the ability to use clouds in the sky for divination?”Vera looked

    Still, Jacob soon clenched his knuckles and pulled himself together. "It's fine—I'll just find another way of revenge. Whatever happens, if Raymond Cole dares to return to Aurous Hill, I'm not going to spare him. If I can't fight for my honor, how would I ever show my face in Antique Street ever again?"And without another word, he turned and left the dining room.Claire turned in exasperation toward Charlie then. "Please keep both eyes on my dad, dear. Don't let him cause trouble out there."Charlie nodded slightly. "Don't worry, I will."And with that, both of them cleaned up the dining room and stepped out together to find Jacob on the drawing room couch, sipping tea while watching TV.As for Elaine, she had a rare smile on her face as she sat beside Jacob, constantly refilling his cup.Then, seeing Claire and Charlie, she promptly beckoned, "Come, children—sit and have a taste of my tea."Claire and Charlie shared a look and sat down on the couch while Elaine poured them tea

    Charlie, who hadn't spoken, had plenty of ideas in mind.He definitely didn't want to see Raymond humiliated in a rotten place like Aurous Hill's Antique Street—not when the man was a qualified hero, putting his life on the line to meet the Rothschild family and trade for the Four-Sided Treasure Tower.That was why Charlie's first thought was to call Don Albert and ask him to keep a close eye on Antique Street, preemptively killing the issue in the cradle before any saboteurs reached Raymond.However, Charlie also knew that Raymond would most likely refuse protection as the latter had seen action and was brave enough to fight the Rothschilds—and this was Aurous Hill they were talking about. He would be quite adept at resolving issues, especially one as simple as a handful of saboteurs.Hence, after some thought, Charlie decided to not get involved for now. Instead, he would watch quietly while letting Raymond deal with Aurous Hill's locals. As long as said locals—including Jacob—di

    "What?!" Jacob exclaimed excitedly, suddenly on his feet. "That prick is really going to start a business in Aurous Hill? What, did he get sick of living the good life elsewhere?"In Jacob's mind, there were only two reasons why Raymond had returned to Aurous Hill.The first was that he had gotten so rich that he had come back to open a shop on Antique Street, to salvage some dignity after he had been fired from Vintage Deluxe. The other was the complete opposite—he had screwed up elsewhere too and had no choice but to return to Aurous Hill to make a living.If it was the former, he certainly wouldn't have hope for his revenge.But that was not the case if it was the latter!Meanwhile, Zachary replied, "Truth be told, I haven't seen the man in the flesh. But judging from my tip, he definitely wasn't doing well elsewhere, since the business he's planning now that he's back is quite modest."Jacob immediately laughed. "Hahaha! I see… He must have messed up out there and had no ch

    Claire pursed her lips, grumbling, "Like you said, I won't tell Mom for the sake of peace. But you know very well that you shouldn't do that ever again!"Jacob nodded repeatedly as he promised. "Don't worry—I'll never do it again."As he finished, his phone rang on the table, and he looked down to see that it was Zacahary."That's weird," he murmured in surprise. "He's been hiding from me for the longest time, but he's calling me now?"Charlie was surprised too.After Zachary left Antique Street and started helping Don Albert's more unsavory business, he shouldn't have any reason to contact Jacob.So, why call him now?Jacob was confused too, but he ultimately answered the call.On the other end of the call, Zachary greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Wilson? It's me—Zachary. Do you still remember me?""Nonsense," Jacob snorted. "Why wouldn't I remember you after we've spoken so many times? I also couldn't reach out to you when I had all that good stuff before, but you're contactin

    Meanwhile, at Thomson's First, the family of four was peacefully having dinner for the first time.While Charlie and Claire never argued, Jacob and Elaine were always either bickering or dissing each other, leaving the air around the table tense and awkward.But this time, neither of them argued, and they didn't seem to despise each other.The table was not just peaceful either—Elaine was a lot less bossy, even helping put food on Jacob's plate, having him try this and that, almost as if she was suddenly the best of wives.Jacob used to regard Elaine with disdain in every way, constantly lamenting how a great man like him didn't have a good wife.But with him being the way he was now, he utterly resigned to himself.It made sense that Matilda wouldn't be interested in him given his current state, and it was amazing that Elaine willingly stayed with him. That was why he no longer regarded Elaine with unconcealed disgust and disdain like before and was instead gentle and emotiona

    Mick was left gritting his teeth. "Shit, that's true. It's going to be hard to pull the wool over Raymond's eyes—it has to be the best to actually trick him."Then, he sighed. "If there's someone who can do that, it'd be Zachary Evans! The man was a God back in the day!"The employee nodded. "Well, it's true that his replicas were impeccable… But the man has made it big time working for Don Albert, and we won't be able to ask for his help!"Mick shook his head. "No, it's fine. We're quite close—let me call him right now."With that, he whipped out his phone to make the call.While Zachary used to be humble in Mick's presence before, Zachary was now way above him on the pecking order.Afraid of being remotely disrespectful, he promptly greeted Zachary politely as soon as the latter answered, "Hello, Zachary! It's me, Mick Crane!" "Uh-huh," Zachary replied noncommittally before asking in curiosity, "To what do I owe the pleasure?"Ever since Zachary had started working for Don A

    Raymond may have worked abroad for years and was a veteran in antiques, but he was still lacking when it came to reading between the lines.Taking Mick's words at face value, he promptly shook his head, "No, you really shouldn't. I wasn't planning to come back here to work, so you mustn't mention me to Ms. Moore either."And unlike Mick, he really meant what he said, while Mick was saying the complete opposite of what he was thinking.Naturally, Mick didn't believe Raymond, even presuming that Raymond was a liar like himself.The more Raymond said he didn't want to return to Vintage Deluxe, the more he thought he was.Hence, he asked despite knowing the answer, "Well, what are you planning to do now that you've returned to Aurous Hill?""It's been years of traveling for me, so I was just getting a little tired," Raymond admitted. "I'm planning to set up a small business in Aurous Hill, most likely here in Antique Street. That's why I'm visiting—do be neighborly when I set up shop

    Meanwhile, Raymond had no idea that he was being targeted as soon as he returned to Antique Street.He had reached the middle where rows of three-floored buildings stood, the largest on the street, and where Vintage Deluxe was. It was not closed yet as tradition on Antique Street was for stalls to open in the morning and close in the afternoon. In comparison, shops opened later and closed later.With the difference of two to three hours, they could afford to have customers who had lower purchasing power or were just window shopping to stroll through the outdoor stalls. Then, when they were gone, customers with actual purchasing power would come on their own time.As Raymond arrived outside Vintage Deluxe, Mick just finished his meeting with his employees, summing up, "So, does anyone have anything to do tonight?"They all shook their heads, answering as one, "No!!!"Mick nodded. "If there's nothing else, stay back for overtime. Ask for some spicy crayfish and beer for dinner."

    However, Raymond had accomplished the assignment Curtis had given him years ago, so he had no intention of staying at Aurous Hill and remained unrepentant despite Jasmine's pressure. That was why he could ask to resign without hesitation, even urging her to let him go despite the pain.That was why Mick was now worried that Raymond would return to reclaim his position as manager."Keep an eye on him for me," he told Trippy. "Tell me if anything comes up right away—I will make it worth your while.""Alright!" Trippy agreed to it. "Don't worry—I'll call right away if anything comes up."Once Trippy hung up, Mick gathered the handful of Vintage Deluxe employees.They were all his close allies he had groomed after he took over Vintage Deluxe. Even if Mick hadn't been succeeding in his business, he was succeeding in building his own forces. Anyone who didn't obey his orders had since been removed, and the remaining ones were basically his co-conspirators, embezzling a considerable am
