Chapter 3178: It all depends on Ye Chen's face
Nordic Palace.
The Rothschild father and son were invited to the palace again after a day to attend the banquet hosted by Queen Helena.
Howard had long been impatient, because he knew that the AI model had been handed over, and Helena should fulfill her promise and sell that half of the Sanxue Heart-Saving Pill to him.
Perhaps, this dinner was for this matter.
However, he didn't quite understand in his heart. He had already reached an agreement with Helena not to discuss the medicinal pills in front of his son. If she wanted to sell him the pills tonight, the timing didn't seem very appropriate.
As for Steve on the side, he had no interest in the Nordic palace now. He just wanted to return to New York to prepare as soon as possible, and then set off for China as soon as possible, so he was a bit absent-minded at this banquet.
Before the banquet started, Helena called Ye Chen and asked for instructions on the phone: "Mr. Ye, I will have dinner with the Rothschild father and son later. I want to ask you, when do you plan to give him the half pill you want to sell to Howard Rothschild? If you don't plan to give it to him today, I will tell him obscurely."
Ye Chen smiled: "Let him eat with peace of mind. I will come to find you later. At that time, I will give you the pills and see Steve by the way."
Helena asked: "Then sell the pills to Howard tonight?"
"Yes." Ye Chen said: "Sell it to him tonight, so that he can return to the United States tomorrow."
"Okay!" Helena said with a smile: "Tell me when you arrive at the palace, and I will go to see you."
After hanging up the phone, Helena got up and went to the banquet hall. At this time, the Rothschild father and son had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing that Helena had not arrived yet, Steve couldn't help but whisper to Howard: "Father, your business here should be almost done, right? When do you plan to return to the United States?"
Howard had no bottom in his heart. His work was all done. The AI model was successfully handed over. The rest was how Helena used this model, which had nothing to do with him. But the problem was that he hadn't received the reward he deserved. 50 billion US dollars had been prepared long ago, just waiting to buy half a pill from Helena again, but Helena had not given him a definite answer, which made him feel a bit uneasy.
He wasn't afraid that Helena would fool him. He was mainly worried that there would be any changes in the middle of this matter. If Helena felt that the AI model needed to continue trial operation and slowly accept it, then he would have to continue waiting.
So, he said to Steve: "Although the matter is almost done, I still have some cooperation that I want to discuss with Queen Iliad again. If it is fast, it will be one or two days. If it is slow, it may take a few more days."
Steve said: "Father, if there is nothing for me here, I want to return to New York to prepare first, and then set off for China as soon as possible. Do you think it is okay?"
Howard's mind immediately became active. Although Steve had previously expressed his attitude that he wanted to go to China alone to open up business, which was considered taking the initiative to avoid suspicion and let himself be at ease, he was not 100% assured of Steve now. After all, before Steve went to China, he couldn't be completely sure whether he was from the bottom of his heart. If he was setting up a smoke bomb with himself, and he took the opportunity to return to New York to make a layout, wouldn't he be passive?
After thinking for a moment, Howard said: "I estimate that my business here will take these two days. We don't need to go back one after another. You accompany me to wait for two more days."
Steve was helpless, but he couldn't say much, so he said: "Okay, Father, everything follows your instructions."
Just as he was talking, Helena, in a dress and dignified, walked in with the old Queen.
The father and son stopped talking immediately and stood up together.
Helena walked to the two with her skirt, smiled and said: "The two don't have to be so formal, please sit down."
The two sat down again. Just after sitting down, Howard couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the cooperation is basically completed now. I don't know what else you need me to do. Please give instructions. After finishing the matter, I need to return to New York first, and then come to Northern Europe to carry out a new round of investment after dealing with the matters in New York."
Howard spoke very obscurely, but Helena could easily hear the subtext inside. He was nothing more than asking when she could fulfill her promise, preferably as soon as possible, so he could return to New York early.
So, Helena smiled and said: "I don't have any other needs here. If Mr. Rothschild has something to do to return to the United States, you can go back tomorrow."
Howard heard this, and his heart was happy. He felt that Helena said this, thinking that she must be fulfilling her promise. But then there was a burst of uneasiness in his heart. What if Helena meant the literal meaning and let him go back tomorrow directly? Then what should he do? After all, she didn't mention any obscure information about the medicinal pills.
Just when Howard couldn't figure out Helena's path and didn't dare to agree at will, Helena said: "By the way, Mr. Howard, please reserve a little more time after the banquet. Regarding the previous cooperation, there are some things that need to be reviewed with you again. It won't take you too much time, about ten minutes. You should be convenient, right?"
Howard heard this, and his whole person was excited, nodding repeatedly: "Convenient, convenient!"
"That's good." Helena nodded and smiled: "Then I will trouble Mr. Steve to wait for a while. After the review is over, the two of you can go back to pack your luggage and prepare to return to the United States."
Steve nodded respectfully and said: "Everything follows Her Majesty's instructions."
Howard on the side was incomparably excited at this moment. Half a pill was about to be in hand, and his life and physical state would definitely be pulled back again.
Steve saw the contrast in his father's expression and thought to himself: "The old man has seen everything, and he has more money than he can spend in several lifetimes. The only thing that can make him so excited and so out of shape is Ye Chen's medicinal pills... I think Ye Chen must have let Helena promise the pills to the old man. I guess Helena will give the pills to him in a while..."
Thinking of this, Steve felt depressed. Seeing that he didn't know which year he could succeed to the throne, if the old man could get other medicinal pills, he estimated that he would have to wait a few more years.
Steve also couldn't help but think of the reminder Ye Chen gave him before. The medicinal pills could delay the old man's retirement, but they could also make the old man retire early, depending on whose hands the pills were in.
If Ye Chen could cut off the supply of medicinal pills to the old man in the future and give the pills to himself, he could also use the medicinal pills as a bargaining chip to require the old man to give up the position of family head early. After all, as he got older, the balance between power and life would constantly tilt toward life. Once the balance was broken, it was not impossible to abdicate.
So, Steve couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Whether I can be the family head of the Rothschild family in the future, it all depends on Ye Chen's face!"
