Chapter 588 (1/2)
William Charles was so involved in his story that he himself got into it and couldn't extricate himself from his thoughts.
He continued: ”my great grandfather's so-called great event was a conspiracy against Chinese workers. He was in his thirties at that time. He sneaked into the camp of Chinese workers with dozens of his men in the dark, and then killed and robbed!
No one knows how many people died as a result of this hooliganism, but surprisingly, not many of the last dozens of people came back alive. In short, when my great grandfather returned to their place of residence with his last breath the next morning, he was covered with blood.
My grandfather was only a teenager. He was about to call my great grandfather, but he found him dead.
However, in the end, my grandfather found something tightly clenched in the palm of my great grandfather's hand. He broke it with great effort and found that it was a dark red jade pendant. ”
”Just like me, right?” Zhang Yitian suddenly interrupted William Charles.
William Charles was a little stunned. He looked up at Zhang Yitian, but his eyes stiffened in an instant, because Zhang Yitian had taken out the red jade pendant from his collar.
”This...” William Charleston choked, his eyes stared at the jade pendant in surprise, and his chin trembled.
Liu Yin, who was on the other side, hurried over, stared at the beads and looked at the jade pendant, muttering: ”this... Is true, it must be true...”
Obviously, after they saw the jade pendant, they both showed that extreme obsession, just as the cat licked the cat mint.
Zhang Yitian quickly clenched his fist, held the jade pendant, and said warily and coldly, ”Mr. William Charles, please continue to tell!”
Zhang Yitian's action calmed William Charles down. Then he couldn't help smiling bitterly and shaking his head and said, ”Mr. Zhang, do you know how valuable the things you hang on your body so casually?”
William Charles clearly meant that Zhang Yitian was in love with nature.
This kind of thing hangs casually around his neck. Obviously William Charles can't do it.
”I'd rather buy a bank to protect this kind of thing!” said William Charles.
Zhang Yitian sneered, ”I don't need it. I think it's just a thought. And I think it's much safer in my hand than the bank.”
Zhang Yitian casually stuffed the jade pendant back into his collar, and then asked, ”I think the jade pendant mentioned by Mr. William Charles should be your great grandfather from a Chinese?”
William Charles and Liu Yin showed a jealous and helpless expression one after another. They couldn't help sighing as they watched Zhang Yitian casually deal with the priceless baby.
William Charles has no intention to tell again. He has been busy for so long, of course, just for this jade pendant, and the things he misses so much are in front of him. Naturally, he has no intention of doing anything!
”Yes, that's right!” William Charles quickened the pace of the story. ”At first, my grandfather didn't take the jade pendant brought back by my great grandfather seriously, until one day, he found the secret in the jade pendant. You must know Mr. Zhang? There is a God in the jade pendant!”
Zhang Yitian denied it, but did not admit it. He just listened to William Charles continue to tell.
Obviously, things gradually became clear in Charles's story, and the other party had discovered the secret in the jade pendant.
And the time is more than 100 years earlier than Zhang Yitian!
More than 100 years!
I have only used the jade pendant for two or three years. Most people have been left behind in terms of career and physical quality. How powerful is the family that has mastered the secret of the jade pendant more than 100 years ago?
Thinking in his heart, Zhang Yitian couldn't help feeling the cold sweat running. Only then did he understand why he just felt small!
William Charles then said, ”my grandfather discovered the secret, but he just found it. He was far from thinking about how to use this extremely valuable resource until he handed over the jade pendant to my father after middle age!
My father is a smart man. He inherited his grandmother. He soon made a small fortune by using the amazing energy in the jade pendant. Then his career grew like a snowball! In 1935, the Charles family's industry had reached 750 million US dollars. At that time, you can imagine what a huge fortune it was!
When the Second World War broke out, I was just born. My father seemed to have discovered the more amazing secret of the jade pendant, and then got through some people in the U.S. military at that time, so he obtained the identity of a special military adviser and went to China... ”
”This secret has something to do with my country, right? Because this jade pendant comes from the hands of Chinese workers, he must come from China!” Zhang Yitian asked, ”So your father wants to go to China to solve this secret, or find a bigger secret? If I guess right, this secret must be amazing, because your father was a billionaire at that time. He didn't have to go to China for adventure. It was a time of war!”
