The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 975
Charlie had never been a good person anyway.He would only try to save someone if he pitied them.However, the premise was that the other party should be able to differentiate between the good and bad.However, if the other party did not know what was good for himself, then he would not allow himself to be snubbed despite his good intentions.Since some people were so stubborn, then it would be best for them to experience misfortune for themselves.Anyway, they had made the decision on their own and they would not be able to push the blame on anyone else for their misfortunes in the future.Therefore, Charlie deliberately changed the topic. At this time, he immediately said, “If you want to talk about making money, then I think that you should go back and talk about it in private. The reason why we’re here today is because we want to treat Mrs. Lewis to dinner. We haven’t even ordered any food after sitting here for so long.”Max immediately smiled as he said, “Come, come. Let’s

Max waved his hand before he said, “Yes, of course! Why not? Just serve us the dish!”After he was done speaking, Max continued saying, “Oh, by the way, please bring us two bottles of Ace of Spades champagne!”The waiter replied, “Sir, a bottle of Ace of Spades champagne is $18,888.00. It is also non-refundable once the bottle of champagne is opened. Is that okay?”Max replied immediately, “Yes! Hurry up and serve it as soon as possible!”When they heard that he had just ordered two bottles of champagne which cost $18,888.00 each, all of them could no longer sit still.After doing the calculation, this meal had already cost more than sixty thousand dollars. Even if they would only have to pay for half of the bill for dinner tonight, wouldn’t they still have to pay thirty thousand dollars then?Even if they were to split the bill equally among the rest of them, each of them would still have to pay two thousand dollars each!Harvey was a little embarrassed as he said, “Max, we don

As soon as Max heard Charlie’s words, he smiled before he said sarcastically, “Oh, Charlie you’re really good at bragging!”Charlie smiled faintly before he said, “What is there to brag about? If you don’t believe me, then we can both just pay one hundred thousand dollars in advance so we can spend two hundred thousand dollars for the dinner tonight. What do you think?”After Max heard Charlie’s words, he said excitedly, “Is this true?”Charlie took out his cell phone before he opened his mobile banking app as he told the waiter, “Come and scan the QR code for payment first.”When Max saw this, he really wanted to jump up in excitement!He was originally planning to spend more money on the dinner tonight. After that, he would be able to claim more money when he was trying to claim reimbursement from his boss. However, his group of friends from the orphanage were really very pathetic. They kept making noise as he was ordering the dishes and they were really being very annoying.Ho

He has never smelled or drank any champagne that cost nearly twenty thousand dollars a bottle. Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of this good opportunity to drink as much as he could.At this time, Max’s lackey, Scott was eating the roast suckling pig as he said in a flat tone, “Why do I feel as though I have become Daryl Wayne’s good brother in The Richest Man in Zion? I feel as though this scene is really similar to the scene in the movie when they were eating and drinking in the restaurant!”As soon as he said this, everyone immediately agreed. They nodded and laughed before they said, “Yes, you’re right! This is really similar to that scene!”Scott smiled before he said, “This is all thanks to Brother Max! Thank you, Brother Max!”Stephanie said indignantly, “Why are you only thanking Max? Brother Charlie is also paying half the bill for tonight’s dinner, okay?”Scott replied disdainfully, “I’m eating the half that Brother Max has paid for while you’re eating the half tha

As everyone was enjoying their meal that was worth two hundred thousand dollars, Charlie walked up to the front desk before he said to the waiter, “Hello, I am a guest from Table 03 in the lobby. Please give me a receipt for my table.”The waiter hurriedly asked in a respectful manner, “Hello, sir. May I ask whether you’re referring to the table that has just spent two hundred thousand dollars tonight?”“Yes!” Charlie nodded immediately.The waiter asked again, “Would you like me to issue the receipt under a company or a personal name?”Charlie replied, “A personal name.”“Okay, sir. Could you please give me your name?”Charlie nodded slightly before he said, “Charlie Wade.”The waiter hurriedly typed on the computer before he started printing the receipt out from the printer.There was the sound of the printer at work before a receipt with Charlie’s name and the amount of two hundred thousand dollars was printed out.As soon as Charlie received the receipt, he checked the acc

Joey replied immediately, “Brother Max, I had already checked out the online platform just now. They requested for me to upload the front and back of my identity card on the online platform but I left my identity card back in my dormitory. Don’t worry. The first thing I’m going to do as soon as I get back to my dormitory is to upload my identity card information as soon as possible so I can get the loan as soon as possible!”“Okay.” Max nodded as he was relieving himself. After that, he said, “You have to do this as soon as possible. Do not miss out on such a good opportunity such as this. In fact, I can teach you another method to make even more money.”As soon as Joey heard this, he trembled in excitement and he accidentally peed on his own hand. However, he did not care too much about it. Instead, he hurriedly wiped his hand on his trousers before he turned around and asked Max, “Brother Max, what’s the method that you’re talking about? Brother Max, please give me your advice!”M

The receipt was the only way that he could get his reimbursement.Because of this, Max was very angry when he heard that Charlie had already taken the receipt away.He had been waiting for this receipt in order to claim for a reimbursement from his company. If Charlie refused to hand the receipt over to him, then he would not only be unable to earn money from this meal, but he would also lose one hundred thousand dollars. Wouldn’t he be making things worse in an already bad situation then?As he thought about this, Max hurried back to the table angrily. When he saw Charlie, he quickly asked, “Charlie, did you go to the front desk to secretly issue a receipt for yourself? Hurry up and give me the receipt now!”Charlie replied indifferently, “This meal was paid for by the two of us. What is wrong with me asking for a receipt from the front desk? After all, I paid one hundred thousand dollars for this meal. Did you forget that?”“You…” Max choked as he was completely speechless. Afte

He was originally planning to make one hundred thousand dollars. Unexpectedly, he had lost one hundred thousand dollars tonight instead. He had really made a big loss because of this meal!Max had the desire to die in his heart. He was initially doing quite well. He had bought a new Mercedes-Benz and he was pretending to look proper and decent. However, he really did not expect to lose so much money after meeting Charlie today.Therefore, he really could not wait to stab Charlie to death so he would be able to relieve his hatred.Charlie intended to provoke him even further at this time. Therefore, he poured him a glass of champagne as he held it out to Max before he smiled and said, “Come, Brother Max, let me give you a toast!”Max replied angrily, “I don’t want to drink with you!”Charlie smiled before he said, “Don’t be so angry. After all, you paid for this champagne with your own money too. Don’t you think that it would be a waste if you don’t drink it?”Max trembled with an

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 6478
Soon, the video of Mick's staged act was uploaded to the online group, and everyone eagerly watched it as soon as it was done uploading.Mick certainly set a new bar with his acting as none of them could see that it was an act.Moreover, everyone could see that the bronze sculpture looked like the real deal, and they might have been swindled if it were them.As such, they couldn't help being impressed as Mick had easily seen through Billy's con, and he was the definition of a pro in that video.No matter how Billy had packaged it, there was no tricking real experts like Mick Crane. Just a quick glance and he had seen through that it was a postmodern replica, matched with a base from the Renaissance era to misdirect and beguile.With that, many fellow antique dealers changed their opinion of Mick.After all, Vintage Deluxe's business had been declining after Mick took over as manager, and people were presuming that his skills were lacking.But now, they were all shown that he had

"Amazing, Mr. Crane!""It's Mr. Crane who shines through, in the end! His eyes see through everything!""I guess Miss Moore made the right choice firing Raymond and appointing Mr. Crane! Mr. Crane is infinitely better!"Mick was immediately thrilled to see them fawning over him, and he laughed, "You flatter me—I'm merely sharing my personal perspective on this. In this trade, anyone who knows would understand how hard it is to get the good stuff in this age of technology.""There are plenty of people who hold ulterior motives and change their tactics knowing that there are always those scheming to get their hands on vintage treasures, so they just have to make it. That is how they started making counterfeits of everything, from scrolls to sculptures to statues, each of them so real just to trick those fools who think they could get rich overnight!""Exactly!" Someone promptly agreed. "There's never a lack of any such fools, and I just happened to meet one. I had this piece of jade
