Chapter 3181

"Your Majesty the Queen... wait, Your Majesty the Queen!"

Seeing Helena eat the pill, Howard was extremely nervous and blurted out subconsciously.

After the pill turned into a warm current in her abdomen, Helena felt the refreshing medicinal power while pretending to be puzzled and asked Howard: "What is it, Mr. Rothschild, why are you making such a fuss?"

Seeing that Helena had eaten the pill completely, Howard said with heartbreak: "Your Majesty the Queen... you... why did you eat that half pill..."

Helena asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Mr. Rothschild only bought half of it. Is there a problem with me eating the remaining half myself? Could it be that I am wrong to eat my own pill?"

Howard realized he was being somewhat offensive and hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty the Queen, I... I didn't mean that... I just think that you are so young, so healthy, and so full of vitality, eating this kind of pill is truly a bit... a bit of a waste..."

Having said that, Howard felt that the word "waste" seemed a bit inappropriate, so he hurriedly changed his words: "Your Majesty the Queen... I didn't mean that either... I just... I just hoped to buy that half pill as well... and I am willing to spend another 50 billion US dollars or more... but you just ate a 50 billion US dollar pill so casually... I... I really feel some regret in my heart..."

Helena smiled and nodded, saying: "I didn't think about any of that when I ate it. After all, you bought half, and I was too lazy to put the remaining half away again, so I just ate it."

After finishing, Helena looked at the devastated Howard and added: "Besides, Mr. Rothschild, don't forget that what I promised you was the right to purchase half a Heart-Saving Pill, not one. Even if you pay another 50 billion US dollars, I will not sell this half pill to you."

"Why..." Howard, who was of advanced age, felt as aggrieved as a seven or eight-year-old child, and he subconsciously said: "Your Majesty the Queen, if you had said this pill was not yours, that you were helping someone else sell me half and had to take the other half back to its owner, then I could understand your refusal to sell it to me. But... but you would rather eat it yourself than exchange it for 50 billion or even more US dollars. Could it be... could it be that 50 billion US dollars is so worthless in your eyes?"

Helena smiled: "When a person's life has higher pursuits, money is actually just a number. My future life might not even be able to spend 500 million US dollars, let alone 50 billion. When 500 million US dollars can't be spent, what is the meaning of 50 billion?"

Howard was stunned for a moment. He couldn't understand why Helena didn't even take 50 billion US dollars seriously. Could it be that there really were people who didn't love money?

Even he, after possessing endless wealth, was still not satisfied and hoped that life could create even higher peaks. As the Queen of Northern Europe, could Helena really look at 50 billion US dollars so lightly?

Howard, who couldn't figure it out, couldn't help but ask Helena: "Your Majesty the Queen, I wonder if you still have any pills left? If so, can you sell some extra to me?"

Helena nodded and said very indifferently: "I definitely still have pills, but I can't sell them to you for the time being. It depends on your performance."

Howard hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty the Queen, as long as there are still pills to sell to me, I am willing to go through fire and water for you!"

Helena smiled: "Then I will wait to see your performance. If you perform well, let alone half a pill, even one or two is not a problem!"

Howard didn't know that Helena was just giving him empty promises. Hearing this, he felt as if he had received an extremely important guarantee and was instantly overjoyed. What he feared most was that the number of these pills was limited, and every one sold was one less. If he found that he couldn't buy any when he needed to prolong his life again, then it would be hopeless. If Ye Chen could sell him one or two more, living to be over a hundred shouldn't be a problem!

At the same time, Howard's son, Steve, was standing in front of Ye Chen with a face full of surprise.

A few minutes ago, Ye Chen told him his request, asking him to come forward and buy the largest private remote sensing satellite company in the United States.

Although Steve didn't know what Ye Chen wanted him to buy such a company for, he could roughly guess that Ye Chen probably wanted to use it himself, so he asked him: "Mr. Ye, will the company be handed over to you directly after it is bought?"

Ye Chen waved his hand: "After you achieve a controlling stake, kick the other shareholders out of the board of directors as much as possible. Once everyone else has exited, you appoint a professional to be responsible for the daily operations of this company. As for which professional is responsible, I will decide. At that time, I will prepare the information for you, and you will announce to the outside world according to the information I prepared that he is the next CEO. This matter will be considered a great success."

Although Ye Chen wanted to take the remote sensing satellite company into his own pocket, if he really acquired such a company himself, I am afraid that rounds of investigations by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security would instead cause this company to lose all its advantages instantly.

So Ye Chen wanted Steve to act as a white glove to hold this company. The daily operation of the company is to continuously update the global satellite map library. Whoever acquires this company can get the global satellite map with the highest clarity and fastest timeliness in the civilian field. This can just happen to continuously provide the latest satellite maps for AI, helping it further perfect its database.

Moreover, having someone designated by Ye Chen serve as the head of the company means that in the future, whenever Ye Chen wants to turn the satellite to look at somewhere, as long as he tells this person, this person can give orders to have people adjust the satellite status according to the requirements and implement close monitoring of the designated location.

After hearing Ye Chen's request, Steve nodded immediately and said respectfully: "No problem, Mr. Ye. This kind of thing can be done with a few billion US dollars. You can rest assured and leave it to me."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "How much money is needed for the acquisition? I will pay for it myself. You only need to use your influence to help me resolve all policy-related hidden dangers."

Steve hurriedly said: "Mr. Ye, you are too polite. It's just a few billion US dollars. Let me complete this matter, and I will definitely not let you down."

Ye Chen said solemnly: "Since it is a company I want to acquire, the money should naturally be paid by me. You don't need to worry about this. What you need to do is to ensure that the US government and national security departments do not interfere in this matter."

"Don't worry, Mr. Ye." Steve said: "With me coming forward, the US government and national security departments will definitely not cause any trouble. As long as the price is negotiated with the current team, there will definitely be no other problems."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, looked at Steve, and said very seriously: "Steve, this matter is of great significance to me. You help me take down this company, and when the time comes, I will host a banquet for you in Jin Ling!"
