One hundred million dollars in exchange for a clam.

Everyone thought that Charlie was insane but Charlie did not care at all.

On the way back home, Charlie explained to Jacob that he need not worry because the one hundred million dollars that he spent at the auction had already been authorized by the Quinton family. Charlie was afraid that Jacob would be frightened and worried about what the Quinton family would do to them.

After arriving home, Charlie began studying the clam immediately sinc

    While a little surprised to get Rachel's call, Julien still answered."Greetings, Mr. Rothschild," she promptly greeted him. "It's Rachel Getty, and I must first convey my gratitude regarding the tip you provided at dinner. It helped my family make a fortune!"Naturally, she was telling Julien indirectly to relay the message to Charlie, reporting that her objective was complete.Julien was himself smart and chuckled heartily, "Oh, it's nothing—you'd be family in the future anyway, so there's no need for such formal thanks over a little tip. Don't worry, I'd let you in the loop if there are similar chances."Rachel was endlessly grateful nonetheless. "Yes, Mr. Rothschild. I'm really grateful…"-Meanwhile, the Left Military Governorate was listening in on Rachel's conversation, with Esteban being positively delighted and thrilled to hear Julien answering Rachel's personal call, and being so approving of her.On top of that, he made a few hundred million in profit from that 'littl

    With that, Yani turned to leave the dorms, not bothering to look at the kneeling trio twice on her way out.After she left, the trio suddenly flocked around Rachel, kneeling to her again.One of them even exclaimed reverently, "Congratulations on such an amazing achievement, Ms. Getty! Please do grace us with your blessings in the future!"They might all be Scholars, but the trio was reduced to backup dancers since Rachel started dating Rob Rothschild.Naturally, they were indignant at first, but they were now shown the sheer difference between them in no uncertain terms.At this point, no other Scholar would be afforded Rachel's level of privilege, as they were on completely different levels. Hence, their envy and jealousy all faded, replaced only by worshipfulness.Rachel understood that too, and so told the trio, "On your feet, ladies. I'd still need your help in the future, and I'll always make sure that you and your families get your rightful shares."Even as the trio thank

    That was why the Qing Eliminating Society was very careful about distributing the antidote, in fear that it would be taken by others.They were worried that the recipients would not take it, instead saving it and giving it off, going against their duty and hurting the Qing Eliminating Society's interests.It was not like they were being paranoid either, as it was a lesson learned from experience.For the dead soldiers who had been oppressed over centuries, it was a dream that one of them found freedom—even if hundreds died for it, by giving their pills to that one person.As each of them took one pill that kept them alive for seven days, hundreds of pills meant thousands of days.That meant years, if not over a decade.It wouldn't be long enough for them to plan and carry out a vendetta against the Qing Eliminating Society, but it was still enough time for them to flourish where the Qing Eliminating Society wouldn't find them.As their children flourished, they carried the weigh

    The four Scholars including Rachel were left gaping as Yani took out the plaque.The Dragon Bronze Plague was an artifact passed down for at least 400 years, and it was polished to be as reflective as a mirror.There were hidden inscriptions used by the Qing Eliminating Society on the front and sides that served as a form of braille, a unique language of its own. The Hubbertians were all taught and knew how to decode the inscription, and only they could see which governorate it belonged to, and the rank of the person holding it.As one of the Qing Eliminating Society's most precious tokens, most Scholars only knew it existed but never saw one.That was why Rachel and the others were left gaping, as they didn't expect to have the privilege of seeing one.For Rachel's part, she didn't think that riding on Charlie's coattails led to the Left Military Governorate bestowing something this important to her—it was nothing she could ever imagine.Even as she was left stunned, Yani told

    Rachel naturally never expected the privilege of such proportions, and was in her room studying when a Praetor knocked on her door.A dorm mate of hers—a fellow Scholar—answered the door. Not recognizing the Praetor, she asked in confusion, "Looking for someone?"However, the Praetor strode in directly before the Scholar could reach her, and she felt herself being shoved away as if repelled by a magnetic field.Knowing right away that the other woman was someone important from the governorate, the Scholar tensed up right then and closed the door behind the Praetor.Then, dropping one knee, she greeted the Praetor reverently, "My Lady." The other two Scholars who were reading in the living room sprang up like startled birds right then, both of them quickly mimicking their fellow Scholar as they knelt before the Praetor in greeting.After all, every Scholar understood that the Praetor was high-ranking enough that they must be greeted with reverence as soon as they arrived behind

    Tensions in the Middle East escalated over the next four days, with oil prices shooting up by thirty percent, no thanks to the Rothschilds' machinations—a near-historical rate of inflation.Naturally, that meant Esteban had made a fortune. When the price inflated, he stocked up and sold all the crude oil he had privately mined and purchased from the Gettys earlier, selling it all back to the Gettys.None of his ships even made port, but he made dozens of millions in profit from the inflated price, making him a lot of money.And once he got the money, he promptly sent two rewards to Rachel.The first was a simple cash gift of five million USD, while the other was a Dragon Bronze Plaque.The governorates worked like the feudal systems of old. To maintain absolute control over the Scholars, armed cavalry guards and death soldiers in each governorate, each governorate had their own private military force in the Hubbertian Battalion.They were technically not affiliated to any governo
