She suspiciously pondered, “That old man has reached the end of his thousand-year lifespan, so he's definitely dead. This is probably a formation he left behind to stop others from finding his chamber and discovering his corpse as his end approaches!”She immediately turned around, retrieved the sword that had been knocked away, and thought coldly, ‘Hmph! Since it's a formation, no matter how strong its abilities are, they will eventually be exhausted. I will break this stone wall today and uncover the truth!’With that in mind, Fleur swung the sword with her left hand, once again yielding her powerful Reiki, and struck the stone wall with all her might!In a flash, there was a loud bang, and before Fleur could react, she felt a tremendous force in her left hand, causing it to go numb. The sword she tightly gripped was knocked away again.The force of the rebound this time was no weaker than the previous one, leaving Fleur with a look of shock on her face. She could understand a fo

Upon hearing those words, Fleur felt a chill run from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She had never felt this helpless and terrified since Marcius had saved her by chance over three hundred years ago on Mount Tason.The last time she had felt this panicked was when she stumbled upon Marcius' image online. But now, she suddenly realized that her master, who was supposed to have passed away over three hundred years ago, might still be alive.This realization hit her like a ton of bricks.Fleur couldn't contain her fear, and her voice trembled as she said, “Master, I… I know that I was wrong…” At that moment, a furious shout echoed in Fleur's ears. Marcius's voice was filled with extreme coldness as he rebuked, “Get out now!”This rebuke struck Fleur's heart like a thunderbolt. She dared not hesitate any longer and quickly got up, trembling as she bowed toward the stone wall and said, “Master, forgive me. I… I will leave…”With that said, she turned around eagerly, dr

Vera shook her head. “I'm not sure either.”Just then, on the screen, Fleur flagged down a passing van here and had a brief conversation with the driver. The driver waved her off, seeming to refuse her request. Fleur looked a bit anxious, hastily pulled out a stack of red bills, and handed them to the driver, who took the money, and Fleur then quickly stepped into the van and sat in the back of the van.Charlie was even more puzzled, “Where is Fleur going?”Vera replied, “Young Master, I can't understand it either.”Charlie suggested, “Let's keep an eye on her and see where this van is headed.”“Okay.”In the underdeveloped mountainous town, surveillance mainly focused on the roads, so Vera could track the van's movements by continuously switching surveillance feeds of the roads. Soon, the van left the town and headed toward the entrance of the highway.At this moment, inside the drafty van, Fleur was eager to leave Oskia as soon as possible. So, she messaged her crew to quickly

Based solely on Fleur's return behavior, it was challenging for Charlie and Vera to determine her intentions. Vera was especially worried that Fleur's departure might not be a genuine exit from Mount Tason but rather a need to change her destination. So, she said to Charlie, “Young Master, my father once mentioned that when Master Marcius left on his crane, his stone chamber later vanished without a trace. He speculated that Master Marcius must have used great supernatural powers to hide or move the chamber elsewhere. Fleur's visit to Mount Tason this time was probably to find the whereabouts of that chamber.”Charlie nodded and replied, “I also think Fleur is unlikely to leave Mount Tason so quickly. Perhaps she has already found some new clues.”Vera, with a worried expression, said, “If Fleur can really find a way to become stronger from the relics left by Master Marcius or if she finds some useful elixirs and artifacts, wouldn't her strength increase significantly?”Charlie sa

The reason why Charlie didn't hide anymore was because he felt that there was no need to worry that Fleur would find out. At this moment, Fleur had already passed through security and customs with an Oskian passport she had prepared long ago. She sat in the VIP lounge, feeling nervous and uneasy while waiting for her flight.Her anxiety and panic caused her leg muscles to twitch even now. In her mind, Marcius' deafening words, ‘Get lost now!’, kept repeating, enveloping her soul in immense fear.She couldn't help but replay the whole situation in her mind as she tried hard to analyze the possibility of Marcius still being alive. She recalled every detail of her and Elijah’s apprenticeship under Marcius, silently reflecting, “Actually, now that I think about it, Master never really valued me and Elijah. If it weren't for us being pursued by the Qing army, Master probably wouldn't have shown up in front of us…”“Now that I think about it, Master taking us as disciples was partly to le

Fleur cried out and said, “Elijah, the Qing army is inhumane, and they have slaughtered countless people in Oskia. If you and I fall into their hands, we will suffer fates worse than death! It’s better for you to end my life quickly than to let me fall into their hands to be abused and tortured by them!”Elijah clenched his teeth and said sternly, “Fleur, you don't have to be afraid. If we truly have no way to escape, I will end your life quickly, and then I will fight those Qing scumbags to the end. I will never let you fall into their hands!”At this moment, Gyaljatru and his men were getting closer and closer. He saw the black bloodstains left by Fleur and sneered, “Since you refuse the wine, then don't blame me for being ruthless! When the two of you fall into the hands of our brothers, we will make sure that the little beauty enjoys herself!”Fleur was both shocked and angry. She shouted hoarsely, “Even if I become a ghost, I will not let you Qing scumbags off! One day, the Osk

Elijah realized that the old man in front of them indeed possessed great powers and was also a fellow Oskian, so he almost instinctively knelt down on the spot and sobbed tearfully as he cried out, “Sir, these days, most of the Oskian land has been almost completely occupied by the barbarians, and the lives of the Oskians are in misery and suffering. We have been resisting the Qing army for many years, but our strength is limited. We can only watch helplessly as the Oskian land continues to fall. Since you are also an Oskian, please help drive away the Qing scumbags and restore Oskia!”Fleur also regained her senses and quickly knelt down, bowing respectfully as she said, “Please lend us your hand, Sir!”Marcius was slightly surprised by their actions, then sneered and said, “I have been living in seclusion here for hundreds of years. Whoever owns the land outside has nothing to do with me anymore. Whether it's a king from Oskia, Mongolia, or from the Qing Army, it is not my concern.

He had been practicing here for hundreds of years, and during these centuries, hardly anyone had disturbed his cave. But today, that group of foolish Qing soldiers had rushed in, shouting and disturbing his peace.He had thought it was just an isolated incident, but now, upon hearing Fleur’s words, he suddenly felt uneasy.At this moment, Marcius remained silent for a long time.Suddenly, flames surged from below the mountain. In order to completely annihilate the Oskian army and the Qing Eliminating Society, the Qing army had started setting fire to the mountain.When Marcius saw the roaring fire, he suddenly changed his mind and said, “That’s enough. Since you two want to support Oskia, I can give you a chance to see if you are willing.”Elijah was overjoyed and quickly said, “Sir, please speak up!”Marcius said lightly, “Today, you two will become my disciples. I will teach you some skills of warfare. After you leave Mount Tason, you can continue to fight against the Qing army

Zachary was naturally shrewd enough to read Jacob's intention.In reality, he wasn't offering to pay just because he wanted the profit. He merely wanted to get in Jacob's good graces. After all, wouldn't Jacob be even more grateful that he wasn't just helping his revenge but also helping him make money?As such, he didn't hesitate to tell Jacob, "Well, chief—since you'll be paying, I will make sure that you will get every cent of profit that you deserve."Jacob was grinning ear-to-ear, but he said, "Oh, you don't have to! If we really are making a profit, there's no way I would let your good work go unrewarded!"Spreading his arms, he continued generously, "How about this? I will pay the full cost while you get twenty percent of the net profit!"Zachary laughed. "Now, that can wait, chief. We need to pay as soon as we decide on the item we want, and there's no time for buyer's regret. But if Raymond doesn't take the bait, all that money will go down the drain, and whether we can s

Zachary chuckled and continued, "Well, I went to Antique Street and asked around. Turns out our mutual friend only brought a few hundred thousand grand with him. If he messes up and loses all his money, won't it be over for him?""He won't just be broke either—he'd be humiliated and forced to fuck off from Antique Street. You'd get even then!"Jacob was at once excited.Just yesterday, Claire and Charlie were warning him that assault meant doing time.As the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association and the next presidential-hopeful, he would lose his place if he was charged with assault or being an accessory to a case.However, Zachary's plan was much better. Jacob wouldn't have to take responsibility, and the damage on Raymond would be even worse!In comparison, slapping Raymond meant nothing. Watching him go broke and get humiliated would really ease his heart!With that in mind, he promptly pressed Zachary, "Are you sure that prick will mess up?""I can't a

Jacob Wilson was in his office at the Calligraphy and Painting Association, planning his itinerary in Dubai.Still, he was immediately thrilled when Zachary told him that there was progress, and he quickly said, "Come see me at the Calligraphy and Painting Association. We'll talk in my office!""Alright!" Zachary agreed to it happily. "Just wait, Mr. Wilson. I'll be right there!"Jacob then quickly told him, "By the way, remember to address me as the vice president when you're here. Got it?"Zachary was naturally sharp enough to understand why, especially around other members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Smiling, he said, "Don't worry, chief. You can always be at ease when I'm on the job!"Once he hung up, he drove to the Calligraphy and Painting Association at top speed.There were just a dozen people around the dozens of work cubicles although Zachary was curious about the personal effects or office tools in the cubicles.After asking around, a staff member le

Then, Mick continued, "I won't lie—Moore Group's bean counters have been eager to get rid of Vintage Deluxe for a while now. It's only Miss Moore's insistence that keeps them at bay, even occasionally coming to check on how business is going. That means she holds sentiment for this place, but if she knows that Raymond is back and doing well, she might hire him again!"Zachary could laugh right then. After all, Mick was terrible at gathering information—he could worry about anyone taking his palace, but not Raymond. The man was fired because he had insulted Master Wade's father in-law, and Miss Moore was endlessly respectful—even obedient to Master Wade. There was no chance that she would hire Raymond back after what he had done, and Mick was just being paranoid.However, Zachary did not tell Mick that.As Mick was begging him to intervene and thus owing him big time, he would also be helping Jacob Wilson get even.Two birds with one stone, so why not?With that in mind, Zachar

Zachary then said, "By the way, I have some friends who have a lot of stock. How much capital do you have, Mr. Cole? I'll check if they have stuff that suits you, and you can partner with them."When Zachary asked how much capital, he was basically asking Raymond how much he would invest in his own business and how much he could spend on taking new stock as he was buying.As such, Raymond replied modestly, "I've been chasing my tail for a while, so I didn't earn more than a few hundred thousand. I definitely would have no issue taking items with rebates, but I'm afraid I can't afford premiums.""Alright!" Zachary nodded, having discerned the scale of Zachary's capital."I'll check on what's available and see if we can get a few personal deals."Raymond nodded. "Thank you, Zachary!"Zachary smiled, shaking his head. "Mr. Crane, please buy another fruit basket for Mr. Cole—I'll pay you later."Mick quickly said, "Oh, you don't have to, Mr. Evans! It's my pleasure, no worries!"Zach

With the last stroke, Raymond got on a ladder to reach the old signboard, pasting the banner over the old shop sign.Then, he added a notice by the entrance: We buy all antiques and measure all treasures.As soon as the makeshift sign and notice were up, Mick was the first to arrive with a fruit basket to celebrate the occasion.The instant they met, he greeted Raymond warmly, "Ah, Mr. Cole! You sure are efficient—you just came back yesterday evening, and you're already setting up shop today at noon!"Raymond smiled, "Doing a small business by myself is naturally much quicker."Mick shook his head disapprovingly as he put the fruit basket by the door, "Now, now. Don't be a stranger, Mr. Cole—almost everyone in Antique Street is a friend, but you didn't tell the gang when you opened the shop! It'd hype things up when everyone comes bringing you gifts!"Raymond quickly shook his head. "Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't know if this humble trade will last. It's better to keep m

To not lose three months' worth of rent on top of that, Donald called over the owner at top speed while getting some of the friends in the antique trade to appraise what merchandise he had left.Taking losses had always been the hardest pill to swallow, but once the decision was made, there really was nothing that couldn't be given up.The owner was plenty pleased as well since that meant someone was picking up on his rental. He promptly had Donald sign the agreement transferring the last three months for the rental to Raymond while signing a new rental contract with Raymond.Raymond didn't have to pay up immediately either—he just had to start paying rent to the owner once Donald's three-month rent was up.Once the agreement was signed, every stall owner as well as owners of businesses resembling the Pearl House swarmed the premises.After all, they loved to take stock from people in the same line of business. Once a business owner decided to close shop, they wouldn't be bothered
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6446
If Donald had to maintain his business under such circumstances, the next three months would be even worse.Hence, instead of doing that, he really wanted to stop this business altogether.As for what remaining merchandise, he'd just get some fellow in the same business to take them off his hands at a lower cost while he gained his freedom sooner.Hence, he stopped Raymond, "Wait, my friend! Let's talk about this… if the hundred fifty grand transfer fee is too much for you, why don't I cut it down even more—say, a hundred grand instead?"Raymond turned and told him solemnly, "I'm not paying a transfer fee at all."Frustrated, Donald blurted, "At least give me ten grand for my troubles! My shop is good—you'd definitely make bank once you take it off my hands!"Raymond thought about it and eventually said, "How about this—if you can clear up the place by the end of the day, I will pay you five grand on top of the forty five grand that is your remaining rent, but not one cent more."
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6445
The reasoning was simple too—with businesses failing, most shops were losing money.With months left on Donald's rental contract, all he could do now was keep his business afloat while attempting to transfer the rental to someone else. At the same time, he must be prepared for the situation where no one would rent it from him, and he must honor his contract to the very last second.With the losses he had sustained up until the contract expires, he definitely wouldn't extend it. That meant packing up to leave while returning everything to the owner to claim the deposit that the owner was holding.Even now that he was asking for a transfer fee, his mindset was to get whatever he could get. By the last month, Donald would naturally give up on such pipe dreams regardless.Still, when Raymond saw the lack of merchandise in the shop, he could tell Donald's business was at its final stretch. What little he sold would serve to recuperate his losses, and there was no chance in hell he would
