Several people were dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but feel scared. If Charlie could easily pull out the bullet tip with his fingers, wouldn’t one’s brain be smashed out if he really used all his strength on one’s face?However, several people didn't understand why Charlie suddenly pulled out the bullet's tip, and they didn't understand what this had to do with the forgiveness he had mentioned.At this time, Charlie looked at the man, raised the bullet in his hand that had been separated, smiled slightly, and said, “Don't you want forgiveness? This is my forgiveness. The whole bullet is not easy to swallow. I will break it up for you to swallow more conveniently.”The man felt as if he had fallen into hell in an instant as he stared at Charlie in horror. He couldn't believe that such words could come out of the mouth of the handsome young man in front of him.Charlie reminded him at this time, “By the way, don't forget to thank your good subordinate. It was he who helped you g
A magical and interesting scene is taking place in this inconspicuous roast goose shop in Oskiatown.Five gang members who were once ferocious and arrogant in Oskiatown, known for frightening countless Oskians vendors, were now kneeling on the ground, constantly stuffing golden bullets into their mouths.The 9mm pistol bullets were thick and fat, and swallowing them was much more painful than swallowing the largest capsules.Moreover, these people did not even have a glass of water to swallow the bullets, so they could only clench their teeth and swallow them raw.Will suffered the most. As his sister was one of the mistresses of the boss of Burning Angels and he was born with ruthlessness in his bones and was extremely ruthless, he also became a middle-level manager in Burning Angel. The boss of Burning Angels had handed Oskiatown to him to manage.He represented Burning Angels as the leader of Oskiatown.However, this leader was particularly miserable at the moment.His four
Angus said, “The third time was the night before yesterday. He was sitting in a Cadillac. The car was parked at the corner of the street. Clinston from the Oskian gang just came out of the nightclub and was dragged into the car by his younger brother. After that, I heard a gunshot and then saw a cloud of blood from the back door of the car. Clinston's body was then pushed down, and the Cadillac drove away…”Charlie nodded and asked, “Does Clinston usually bully people in Oskiatown?”Angus shook his head and said, “The Oskian gang is quite decent in Oskiaatown. Although they also collect a certain amount of protection fees from us, they really help us solve some problems, especially for illegal immigrants like us. There are always people bullying us, and the Oskian gang will generally help us out. Their fees are also relatively reasonable. After all, small businesses in the United States do not have to pay taxes, but protection fees are definitely indispensable. So, the Oskian gang is
Upon hearing Janus’ orders, Angus quickly ran out. Although Oskiatown was a very complex small society, it was just a small place, after all. Therefore, everyone was very familiar with each other after spending time here. Just like its name suggested, it was just a street, albeit a street heavily populated by Oskians. The relationships between everyone here were like the relationships between neighbors in a neighborhood. Although there were still shameless and cunning people among the neighbors, they generally helped and supported each other.In the early years, the Oskians who had just arrived in the United States suffered from humiliation. Everyone could only live together and depend on each other for warmth, and the Oskian gang also developed naturally in this environment.At first, in order to protect themselves, the Oskians organized some young and strong laborers to fight against the foreign enemies together. Over time, with the continuous development of society, various oc
Charlie frowned and said, “There are nearly a hundred of you, so how could you let these five bastards strut around Oskiatown?” Daves said ashamedly, “Mr. Wade, these five people are backed by the Burning Angels, and the Burning Angels have the Italians, who actually control dozens of large and small gangs in New York with a scale of at least a few thousand people backing them up. We're simply not their match at all…”Charlie said coldly, “So what if there are thousands of them? I've never heard of a gang fight involving thousands of people in the United States. Can they bring thousands of people into Oskiatown?”Daves said awkwardly, “Mr. Wade, you don't know this, but these people are extremely ruthless. They've openly and covertly killed several of our core members of the Oskian gang. My subordinates are all scared, and all of them have backed down one after the other.”Charlie asked him, “How many of your men have the Burning Angels killed?”Daves blurted out, “They've killed
Charlie's words immediately frightened the five people, including Will, to death!How could they have thought that they had endured humiliation and torture by Charlie until now, and they were still hoping that Charlie would let them live, but who could have thought that Charlie actually brought out the leader of the Oskian gang and even instructed him to kill them.The five people were terrified, and Will said vaguely with blood in his mouth, “Mr. Wade… We have done what you asked, please spare our lives…”Charlie smiled and said, “If begging for mercy is useful, you will not have the chance to stain anyone's blood and life on your hands. Think about those people you killed. Did they beg you before they died?”After saying that, Charlie ignored Will and stuffed the gun directly into Daves' hand. After that, he said coldly, “What are you still standing there for?”Daves seemed to be struggling as he looked at the pistol in front of him. He naturally had a deep hatred for the Burnin
After that, he gritted his teeth and said sternly, “But before I leave the United States, I must fight to the death to kill a few more of them! I have to avenge my compatriots who died in Oskiatown!” Janus wanted to say something, but he held back the words when they came to his lips and just subconsciously looked at Charlie, waiting for him to speak. Charlie looked at Angus and said very seriously, “Angus, if you shoot, you still have two options. The first option is that I will arrange for someone to send you out of the United States overnight. As you said, never come back.”With that said, Charlie paused slightly, and his tone became a little higher. He continued, “As for the second option, it is to stay here and kill more people who should be killed!”Angus asked Charlie blankly, “Mr. Wade, what do you mean by the second option?”Charlie said with a serious expression and a firm tone, “Stay here, and I will help you form a new Oskian gang. From today on, anyone who insults you
Daves was ashamed when he heard this. He really didn't think highly of Angus. Besides, Charlie was also a stranger who appeared out of nowhere, so he did not believe that Charlie had the ability to help him or help Angus revive the Oskian gang under the oppression of the Burning Angels.However, he had to admit that Angus, a young man who was not very experienced in the world, was indeed more courageous than himself.Although he didn't believe in Charlie's ability, Daves also had his own concerns. If he refused Charlie, he would have to continue to hide from place to place, and there would be no chance for him to turn things around in this life.However, if he cooperated with Charlie, there might be a chance for him to turn things around.As he thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Janus, who was aside.In his opinion, Janus was an amazing person.Although he had been stuck in this store making roast goose for so many years, he was definitely the smartest person in Oski
No one except Raymond expected that the terms would be agreed upon so quickly.He was utterly confident in his judgment and even more so in his value appraisal.He was convinced that once they had a good look, any one of these collectors who could afford twenty million wouldn't miss this bargain.After all, an opportunity to secure an item worth millions more than the price they paid was very rare.In fact, when the other nine collectors heard that the first collector was buying it, it was only to be expected even if it left them all gloomy. They had all held the bronze sculpture in their hands—they knew it was definitely worth that much.However, no one in the room was more shocked than Trippy.He looked utterly flabbergasted, his eyes wide and bulging as he stared at the bronze sculpture while asking himself the same question repeatedly.Was that crap really worth twenty million? How?!While Trippy was still stunned, Raymond had already sent his payment details to the first
Unable to nitpick on the air stewardess' response, Elaine pouted, "Well, try to ask management to improve on your first-class cabins anyway. Maybe even make a premium-class or something since it's not like we can't afford it."The air stewardess quickly said, "We will definitely relay your message to the management."Nodding in satisfaction, Elaine waved her off. "Alright. You can go back to work now."Clearly relieved, the air stewardess bowed her head respectfully. "Always happy to be of service."After the air stewardess left, Jacob asked Elaine in curiosity, "Was the private jet that good?"Elaine rolled her eyes. "Didn't you see the stuff I posted in the chat group?""Not really," Jacob blurted. Elaine was ready to snap at him for not caring, but considering that they had made up now and she shouldn't fuss too much over the little things, she snorted, "Just remember to like and comment on all my posts in the chat group, otherwise, I will make you regret it!""No problem!"
While the ten collectors were taking turns studying the bronze sculpture, Jacob and Elaine were boarding their flight.As they were flying first-class, they had priority over the other passengers and boarded from the separate plug door at the first-class section.The capacity of the Boeing 777 was huge, and the wide-body aircraft could be connected to a special double corridor bridge where first class and business class passengers boarded separately from the economy class passengers.As the terminals to economy class and business class were connected, Elaine and Jacob were able to get through the first-class terminal unimpeded, but the passengers in economy class had a queue of over two hundred passengers. Even as she walked, Elaine was looking over her shoulder and exclaiming at Jacob, "Must be nice being rich! We used to have to queue like the rest of them, waiting for over thirty minutes just to board our flight." "In first class, we may be in the same plane, but we don't hav
Meanwhile, once Raymond had briefed everyone about the rules, he opened the door and invited everyone into Treasure Measure.It was not that wide but appeared spacious since the interior was mostly empty—it was not really crowded even with thirty-ish people.Then, locking the door from the inside, Raymond told them, "I can tell from everyone's faces that we are all veterans here, so I'm sure you understand the rules while appraising: no photos or videos, thank you very much."Indeed, there were many rules that governed the hobby, the most important being respecting the seller's requests and privacy.As the collectors listened, they knew that Raymond was selling but did not want the public to know too much about him.They all nodded, and those who had their phones out slid them back into their pockets.With that, Raymond took out the bronze sculpture that he had brought, leaving Trippy a little surprised.He had never seen the bronze sculpture with his own eyes before, only from
"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,
Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my
After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme
Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If
Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo
