Charlie asked him, “Since these informants of yours are developed offline, their identities are not confidential to you, right?”“Correct.” Porter explained, “We know who they are so that we can ensure that they will not make up some fake information on the intelligence network to sell to us. However, we will also do our best to protect their privacy to ensure that only we will know about it and that no one else will be able to find out about them after they sell the information to us.”As Porter spoke, he then added, “By the way, Mr. Wade, if you are interested in this intelligence network, I can send you a software installation package later. I can create a top authority management account for you so that you can operate directly on it if you want to search for any intelligence in this network in the future.”Charlie smiled and said, “That would be great, if it’s convenient.”Charlie was really eager to search for his father’s name on the system to see if he could find out any re

For the next two days, a large number of Albert’s subordinates were gathered at the airport and the high-speed railway station.They were all dressed up in various disguises, and they secretly photographed all the foreigners who entered Aurous Hill over the past two days before they then sent the photographs over to Isaac.More than ten soldiers from Ten Thousand Armies hid near The Apothecary Pharmaceutical’s factory, and they screened every suspicious person who appeared. However, after Shunpei and his team arrived in Aurous Hill, they did not go to the vicinity of The Apothecary Pharmaceutical directly. Instead, they rented a villa in the suburbs of Aurous Hill first as they were waiting for the United States to use a special channel to give them the instruments and equipment they needed for various experiments. At the same time, the popularity of the Apothecary Restoration Pill continued to rise.This was because the Americans did not dare to violate the terms of the agreeme

Several pirate forces in the Gulf of Aden had decided to combine forces to hijack six cargo ships at one go at noon on the same day.As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked!This included Charlie, who also received push notifications from all the major news media right away.The method employed by the pirates in the Gulf of Aden to hijack cargo ships was very simple and brutal. It was nothing more than employing the use of speedboats to intercept the slow-moving cargo ships as well as using a variety of weapons to deter the opponent and force them to give up resistance. After that, the pirates would then board the ship and control all the crew members before driving the cargo ship back to their home base as they waited for the owner of the ship to pay the ransom in order to redeem his men.This time, when they hijacked several other ships, they were met with resistance from international security personnel, and both sides suffered casualties.However, only the pr

Meanwhile, the pirate leader who had hijacked the Blue Dragon waited for more than an hour at the home base, but he did not receive any response from Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group.He was encountering this kind of indifferent attitude such as shown by Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group for the very first time in his twenty years as a pirate.Moreover, he had already been a pirate for twenty years, and this was the first time that he had ever hijacked a cargo ship with such a large tonnage. As a result, he was being ignored by the shipowner, and this immediately made him lose some patience. He paced back and forth in his command headquarters as he cursed under his breath, “This Ito-Schulz Ocean Shipping Group must have been scared out of its mind, right? Otherwise, why haven’t they responded to my request yet?!”A soldier carrying an AK next to him spoke up, “Boss, I guess that they want to stall time for a little while so that they can bargain with you later.”“Bargain?” The pirat

The other party said coldly, “Ten Thousand Armies has now officially started armed escort services in the Gulf of Aden. If your men dare to lay hands on the cargo ships escorted by Ten Thousand Armies, Ten Thousand Armies will not be lenient with you either!”“D*mn it!” Badr had been in business for twenty years, and he had never been threatened by anyone before. He was immediately furious, and he clenched his teeth as he cursed, “I do not care if you are Ten Thousand Armies or any other mercenary organizations. The Gulf of Aden is my territory. I’ve been here for twenty years now, and no one has ever dared to talk to me like this! If you don’t let my men go now, from now on, I will kill all the people on board any cargo ships as long as they are being escorted by Ten Thousand Armies!”Badr was not afraid of Ten Thousand Armies. This was because he was a warlord in the Gulf of Aden, and he had his own team and base.He had thousands of men and dozens of ships. Every one of his sol

Very soon, the global ocean shipping field received a very shocking piece of news.The pirate organization known as ‘Black Shark’ had publicly issued a warning not to allow any ocean shipping company to cooperate with Ten Thousand Armies when it came to armed escort. Otherwise, they would be taking extreme measures to retaliate against them. Once this news came out, the entire ocean shipping field was shocked. Unexpectedly, Ten Thousand Armies, which was such a powerful and famous mercenary organization, had also begun to get involved in armed escort!Moreover, according to the news released by Black Shark, it seemed as though the two sides had already formed a relationship.Ten minutes later, Ten Thousand Armies also officially released a short statement with only a few simple words: “Nothing and no one can stand in our way!”The entire ocean shipping industry was shocked.This was the first time ever in history that a mercenary organization had gotten involved in armed escort.

The junior captain from Ten Thousand Armies smiled faintly and spoke up as he said, “Should we still keep you guys on board to eat our food and drink our fresh water if we don’t release you? Let me tell you, we will not feed our supplies to you even if we were to feed it to the dogs.”As he spoke, he greeted one of his subordinates around him, “Put the lifeboat down and let them hurry up and get out!”Several pirates exchanged glances with one another, and the expressions on their faces were a little smug.In their opinion, they were not only the master of the Gulf of Aden, but they also had an aura around them where no one would dare to provoke them.Every time they came out to rob merchant ships, they would simply return if they failed. However, if they succeeded, they would gain money to spend in exchange. Even if they were caught, the other party would usually let them go honestly. This almost invincible aura of theirs made them feel even more and more invincible and undefeatab

The junior captain of Ten Thousand Armies had a serious expression on his face as he said, “What are you talking about? You came here to rob the merchant ship that we were escorting. Not only did we not kill you, but we even gave you a lifeboat. Now, you’re saying that I’m trying to kill you? Why don’t you think about it for yourselves? Even if I were to sell all six of you scums, it would not be worth this lifeboat!”The pirate cried out in anger, “If you wanted to be a good man, you should do good until the end! You should leave us with an engine at the very least so that we can drive back to our base!”The junior captain laughed and said, “It’s okay. I see that your base is only about a hundred nautical miles away. You can just paddle and paddle all the way back.”“Paddle back...” The pirate broke down as he cried out in protest, “Even if we were to really paddle all the way back, it would take us at least a few days! How are we going to go back alive if we have no food or water?

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

In groups like these, any gossip would immediately spread like wildfire as people share everything here with their other circles.Within minutes of these people's good work, Antique Street was abuzz even as the skies darkened: one of the antique traders had been swindled for 300 thousand, and it was Raymond Cole—the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe at that!Some of them wondered when Raymond had actually returned while others were laughing.He was supposed to be the former manager of the Vintage Deluxe, but he had messed up as well? You had to be kidding!Many were dumbstruck too—how would Raymond survive in Antique Street after losing so much money? It had been so long since such a major scam had been pulled!As such, all the antique dealers were asking one question: how did Raymond Cole get fooled?Meanwhile, Mick didn't leak the security footage right away, instead sending his people out to spread the news in other channels, claiming that Raymond thought he had won big by

Mick had already clipped the security footage and was waiting for Zachary's word.He had checked the footage repeatedly as well and was only getting more impressed with his masterful acting by the second. He looked just like a maestro, and every detail he mentioned was flawless and showed experience.Zacahry even said that Raymond had truly slipped up with that bronze sculpture, leaving him endlessly thrilled.The proverbial missing piece of the puzzle was here!Hence, calling all the staff he trusted, he told them excitedly, "Spread the word right away—Raymond Cole slipped up, spending 300 thousand on a fake Renaissance-era bronze sculpture!"His staff had no idea of the conspiracy involved, only that Mick had said that someone had tried to sell a counterfeit bronze sculpture but he had seen through it right away and chased him away, only for Raymond to end up buying the fake bronze sculpture soon after.Someone asked, "Mr. Crane, don't you think Raymond Cole bought from the man
