Chapter 5295

Author: Lord Leaf
After saying that, he pointed at the tuna sashimi on the exquisite dinner plate and said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, these sashimi are from the two cheeks of the bluefin tuna. The auction price for this fish is three million US dollars, but such little meat from the two cheeks already cost hundreds of thousands of US dollars. When converted, a piece of sashimi would cost tens of thousands of US dollars, and it cannot be found even in the best Michelin restaurants.”

Yahiko was not just talking nonsense. In Japan’s society of luxury and money, the price of truly top-notch products could be outrageously expensive.

The highest recorded auction price for bluefin tuna was bought for an extravagant price of several million US dollars. Most of the meat from such a fish would go to high-end restaurants. It seemed that one would be able to eat this top-level ingredient at a high-end restaurant, and one would be able to eat a piece of sashimi from this fish in a restaurant for just a few hundred US

    Charlie, Yahiko, and Hiroshi exchanged glasses, while Nanako stood by and kept refilling his sake for him.Interestingly, Nanako only refilled Charlie’s sakem and Emi only refilled Yahiko’s sake. Therefore, Hiroshi could only refill his own sake.In Charlie’s opinion, the so-called ‘Laughing Dragon and Nine Heavens’ did not taste good at all. Aside from its pure rice fragrance, this thing was really lackluster. If he wanted to feel slightly drunk, the alcohol content should be at least 40%. For Charlie, this kind of sake was no different from drinking tap water. However, since it was a national treasure that Yahiko had brought all the way with him, Charlie naturally accompanied and drank with him.Charlie was also full of praise for the top-notch sashimi prepared by Emi. In fact, he felt that sashimi itself did not have any taste, and he was only tasting the texture of different fishes. There was not much difference in the overall taste after dipping it in soy sauce and wasabi.

    Charlie nodded and said, “That’s good. I was not in Aurous Hill during this period of time, but I probably will not be going anywhere soon. Please feel free to contact me if you need help with anything in Aurous Hill.”“Okay!” Helen was not overly polite and agreed with a smile. She then invited Charlie into the house.Charlie could not help but feel nostalgic as he entered the house.When his parents had rented this mansion back then, they had also restored it carefully, and it looked the same as it was now. Although it still looked very rustic, it gave people a refreshing feeling.After twenty years of idleness, this mansion was once dilapidated, but after Helen’s careful restoration, it seemed as if everything had been restored to the state it was in twenty years ago. For a certain moment, Charlie even felt as if he had gone back to the time when he was just seven or eight years old when his parents had just settled down in Aurous Hill. The family of three had lived an ordinar

    Jaime said, “In the second month of departure, I began to treat this pilgrimage sincerely, so I dismissed the entourage that Mr. Wade gave special permission for me to bring along, and I intended to make it to the end by myself...”“I fell ill after being exposed to the rain, so I stayed overnight at a farmhouse. After all, many pilgrims would stay there along the way, so I didn’t think that there was anything wrong with it...”“As a result, the couple tried to sell me to the owner of a black coal mine when I was unconscious with a high fever.”“I heard them saying that an adult with all four limbs could be sold for twenty thousand dollars, and a normal coal mine worker would cost at least three to four thousand dollars a month. As long as the owner of the black coal mine bought someone, he would be able to recover his capital in more than half a year if he worked the person hard, and the rest would be pure profit.”“At the time, the owner of the black coal mine had already driven

    Ever since Charlie had confirmed that the Schulz family had nothing to do with the death of his parents, he had never thought of taking the life of anyone from the Schulz family. He could even spare Sheldon’s life, not to mention Jaime.He had also asked people to secretly protect Jaime on Helen and Sophie’s account. The pilgrimage to Jordan Temple was not the same as Dylan cycling on a bicycle to Aurous Hill. The latter had a bicycle, and he would also be passing through the most economically developed areas in Oskia. As long as he did not pedal blindly on the highway, there would basically be no danger to Dylan’s life. However, it was different for Jaime. The environment all the way to the west would get worse and worse, and there would be danger everywhere if he was not careful. Charlie would not be able to explain things to Helen and Sophie if Jaime died on the way if he did not secretly protect Jaime.Jaime also knew that Charlie had not asked people to protect him because he

    If Jaime could not pass this test, even if he could regain his freedom from today onward, he would not be allowed to lay his hands on the Schulz family’s assets. This was because Charlie wanted to find an absolutely trustworthy and loyal subordinate for Sophie, so there could not be any hidden dangers buried within this candidate. If Jaime had the slightest idea of giving up on this pilgrimage, Charlie would exclude him immediately. Helen and Sophie did not know Charlie’s real intentions. They could not hide their excitement when they heard that Charlie was willing to be lenient and give Jaime a chance. They hoped that Jaime could take advantage of the situation and agree.However, Jaime hesitated for a moment and then said, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade, but I still want to finish this pilgrimage.”Charlie had an indifferent expression as he said, “Think about it carefully. The road ahead will be even more difficult in the future. You will enter the mountains, the plate

    “Test?” Jaime looked at his mother with some doubt and asked in confusion, “Mom, what do you mean by that?”Helen said seriously, “It seems that Charlie’s main purpose in coming today should be to ask you that question, to see if you would take the opportunity to end the pilgrimage.”Jaime asked her, “What is Mr. Wade testing me for? Is he testing my sincerity?”“Pretty much!” Helen nodded slightly and explained, “Charlie’s style of behavior is very similar to his father's. Although I don’t know Charlie well, I know Curtis. What makes Curtis different from most leaders is his first prerequisite for employing people is not based on the person’s ability or background but on the person’s character.”After a pause, Helen added, “In his eyes, no matter how strong a person’s ability is, as long as that person’s character is not good, he will not make deep friendships with him, let alone put him in his career blueprint.”“But many people don’t care about this now, and many bosses themsel

    Three o’clock in the afternoon.A direct flight to Hong Kong took off at Aurous Airport. Marianne, who was deep in thought, was sitting on the plane, looking out of the window at Aurous Hill which was getting farther and farther. She could not help but think of the details of her acquaintance with Charlie in Hong Kong.Although she felt inferior when she happened to see Charlie and Nanako walking together today, it did not affect her deep love for Charlie in the slightest. All she could think of was for time to pass faster in the future. She could not wait for the day when classes would start at Aurous University. She even decided to call Charlie after school had started to tell him that she had come to Aurous Hill on a business trip and then tell him that she had already been employed at Aurous University when they met up. Marianne was also prepared for the worst. She did not care even if Charlie was not happy after knowing it and wanted her to leave Aurous Hill. This was her

    After all, the old man had traveled thousands of miles to come all the way, so the two of them attached great importance to it. Therefore, they had come to the airport half an hour in advance to wait to receive him.As the plane slowly slid into the hangar, Yashita’s hands were trembling out of nervousness. This was mainly because she was unsure as to whether Cadfan, who had a strong temper and was arrogant, would approve of her as his future daughter-in-law.She wondered what to do if Cadfan was dissatisfied with her and pointed at her to scold her for not being worthy of his son as soon as he came down.Sheldon noticed Yashita’s nervousness, so he whispered in her ear, “Don’t worry. My father did not express any dissatisfaction when I called to tell him about this matter.” Yashita said apprehensively, “I know Lord Schulz’s character very well. He likes to hide his emotions and is fond of very sudden outbursts, so I’m afraid that he is just holding back his anger.”“It won’t be

    Naturally, Jimmy couldn't care less about Julien's suggestion, even looking at him pointedly from head to toe while smirking in contempt, "What, do you think I'd just do what any nutjob tells me to do just because they're claiming to be the Rothschilds' heir apparent?"Julien nodded, still smiling. "Good point, but don't worry—it's the same whether you call him or he calls you."Jimmy laughed. "I was offering you a way out, but you want to keep pressing your luck? Since you don't care to back off, let's see how you're going to finish this fight."Then, he shrugged while pointing at Yolden. "Well, it's the perfect chance to measure Matilda's husband, I guess."Based on what he saw of Yolden, there was no way he would buy Julien's claims, and thus labeled him an impostor in his mind.An ordinary lecturer in Aurous Hill, being friends with the Rothschilds' heir apparent? Not to mention that there had been plenty of fraudulent cases outside the States where the Rothschild name was use

    Jimmy was taken aback since he didn't recognize Julien at all, mainly because the Rothschilds had always kept out of the public eye.In fact, it was basically impossible to gather genuine information about the Rothschilds online, as it was a mix of press releases and gossip. Most online biographies would only be about the older generations or certain frivolous figures. Any information about key members like Steve would never be searchable online.Matilda was confused as well, not quite understanding who Julien was since he wasn't on the list of guests invited.Seeing that she was confused, Julien turned and smiled at Yolden, "So, Professor, shouldn't you introduce me to the bride?"Yolden finally remembered that and quickly nodded, "Sorry, it slipped my mind."Turning toward Matilda, he smiled, "Darling, this is Julien Rothschild… A friend of mine from the states…"Julien's full name left everyone within earshot gaping as the Rothschild name was way too famous across the globe.

    Seeing that Jimmy was getting a little nervous, Charlie smiled and assured him, "Please, you have nothing to worry about. No one's going to do anything to you, but if you feel threatened in any way, you can call the cops. The Oskian emergency hotline is 110, by the way."Jimmy was slightly relieved as he could see that Charlie really wasn't trying to make things awkward for him, and he straightened his collar as he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to cause trouble—I'm pleased that Matilda has found true love once more, and if we can be friends, I can set aside my claim and stay for the rest of this wedding, offering the newlyweds our best wishes as a representative of my family."Still, his expression showed contempt as he turned toward Yolden. "Also, I'm really curious and looking forward to seeing what connections Professor Hart might have that you say could be better than Bill.""You'll see soon enough," Charlie smiled and nodded.Jimmy remained skeptical and scoffed, "I really do

    If Charlie really did get Jimmy to stay, who knew what other rubbish Jimmy would spout.As for Jimmy, he was actually surprised Charlie was asking him to stay, and his instincts told him that Charlie definitely didn't mean well.Not only that, he was on foreign soil—wouldn't he be defenseless if Charlie called in his friends to beat him up?Hence, he shook his head without hesitation as he said, "I'm sorry, but my sister-in-law is quite keen for me to leave, so I have no reason to stay and add to her problems. And it is her big day. I can afford to let her save face instead of spilling the beans on her all at once.""Oh, but you were complaining about the lack of important people just now!" Charlie quickly interjected. "It just so happens that we have a big-shot on his way here, and he's a good friend of the groom. When I told him about you over the phone, he said to keep you here no matter what it took, since he would like to talk to you face to face."Jimmy frowned. "What, are y

    And with those words, Jimmy turned to leave.Despite threatening Matilda, there was no such agreement, and he knew that Matilda was well aware of that.Regardless, the only strategy he had in mind when he came to Oskia was harassment. As such, he simply came up with a lie to make Matilda look bad in public. All it took from there was just for one person to relay what he had said—even if it were all lies, Matilda's character would still be called into question.He made himself very clear so that Matilda would understand that if she didn't give in, his family would keep hounding her to take their two pounds of flesh. Even if she wouldn't surrender the stateside estates and human resources of Smith Group Corporate Law, they would still claim a sizable chunk.But if that failed too, they would just have to destroy Matilda's reputation along with Smith Group Corporate Law.Either way, they were not letting her off easy!And reading that much from Jimmy's behavior, Matilda snapped co

    Jimmy didn't expect Matilda to break down the share ownership of Smith Group Corporate Law to such detail, and he hollered as he was starting to feel embarrassed, "Now, you're just being irresponsible, Matilda. My father gave my brother a million to start the law firm in the first place, and they had agreed that the family would have a stake, albeit only at 49%, to not deny your decision-making as a startup. Or are you denying it?"Matilda immediately became furious and snapped, "Bullshit! That was just a loan of one million, and the agreed term was three years. However, your brother returned it in one! I even asked him to return the money with every single one of his siblings watching, since you might all get skeptical, yet suddenly, you're calling it an investment?""You said he's returned it? Well, what proof do you have?" Jimmy quickly shot back. "Our entire family can testify that the money hasn't come back to us!""So, this is how you're going to play it?" Matilda smirked. "Th

    In the first place, Jimmy had come to Oskia to claim a stake in Smith Group Corporate Law, ideally strong-arming Paul and Matilda into splitting the firm in two, with Jimmy taking everything in the States while Paul kept what was left.The way Jimmy saw it, Paul and Matilda were going to be permanently residing in Oskia anyway. There was no way they could manage things over in another country properly, so it was basically returning the firm to the rightful owner.Naturally, Jimmy also knew that despite bearing the Smith family name, the success of Smith Group Corporate Law was all the work of Jimmy's brother and Matilda. Jimmy's father had helped to a certain extent, but that extent of financial support wouldn't amount to an investment at all. No judge in the world would support his claim to the law firm's shares.Therefore, when he learned that Matilda was remarrying, he thought he could seize the moment to cause a scene. Nothing could be better if she and Paul decided to sacrifice

    Jimmy deliberately raised his voice as he said coolly, "Oh, but I didn't want to intervene. It's you and your mother who left the States in a split second, taking with you the law firm which bears the Smith family name. Don't you think such behavior is inappropriate?"Seeing the surprised reactions of the guests, Paul promptly retorted, "The law firm uses the Smith family name, but it is my parents' legacy! They worked blood and sweat to build it from the ground up, and as their only son, I have a veto when it comes to decisions. Or did we need your permission to move to Oskia?""Where's your conscience, Paul?" Jimmy pursed his lips. "Even if you don't know how Smith Group Corporate Law was founded, is that the case for you? It would have been a joke if it weren't for my father's connections!"Hell, it's no exaggeration that it was my father who fought to expand the law firm across America, and just using the family name means you're borrowing the family's influence. The family hono

    The blonde man's voice drew everyone's attention in an instant.Despite his foreign appearance, he spoke Oskian fluently and walked with a haughty gait, almost as though he was above the rest.Paul's expression turned grim the instant he saw him, and he hurried over with Charlie.Still, before Paul could speak, Charlie stopped him, frowning at the man as he said, "Don't you think it's inappropriate to come slinging personal attacks at someone else's wedding?"The man clearly didn't know Charlie, and he wasn't worried, seeing that he was young.Snorting in disdain, he asked, "You must be from the groom's family, yes? Please tell him that he doesn't deserve my sister-in-law.""It's up to the happy couple to decide that," Charlie retorted quietly. "Deserving someone is no issue as long as they both love each other."The man pursed his lips and looked pointedly around him. "Just look at how simple this wedding is.
