Chapter: 6529

Helena said respectfully, "Okay, I'll have someone organize the data and send it to Lin Waner later."

Ye Chen slightly nodded and asked her, "By the way, haven't you had a chance to ask me yet? How was the dinner with the Roschilde father-son duo yesterday?"

"It went smoothly," Helena said honestly. "Howard didn't want to discuss the elixir in front of his son, so I didn't say much. At the dinner table, Howard promised to increase investment in Northern Europe and hold a press conference after the AI model is completed. I think he wants to do this with the royal family of Northern Europe after he receives half of the elixir from you."

Ye Chen laughed and said, "The elixir is already prepared. You can invite him to the palace once the AI model is delivered. Then I'll personally sell it to him."

"Alright, Ye Chen," Helena nodded politely again.

Ye Chen asked her, "How much did you sell the elixir for last time?"

When Ye Chen directly questioned her, Helena knew she needed to lie and became slightly nervous, adjusting her mental state before speaking up. "Ah, Ye Chen, I sold it for a total of 11.1 billion yuan, in accordance with your requirements of a 5:5 split, which should be around 550 million US dollars."

Ye Chen laughed and said, "Helena, I asked you to deal with Howard because I don't want to establish direct contact with him and his son for the time being. However, this doesn't mean I won't have direct contact with him in the future. As for how much the elixir was sold for, I'll know when I face him directly and he knows that his fate is actually under my control. He will definitely tell me the truth then."

When Helena heard Ye Chen say this, she became even more flustered and quickly apologized, saying, "Ye Chen... I... I'm sorry... The elixir didn't sell for as much as I said... 11.1 billion yuan..."

As she spoke, she hastened to explain, "At the time, Howard agreed to conditions of 600 million US dollars, plus a complete set of AI models. However, you told me to leave behind 50% of it, which was too much for me to accept, so... so I lied and said it was 11.1 billion..."

Ye Chen nodded, guessing that Helena was lying because she didn't want to take too much money from him. Therefore, she exaggerated the total transaction amount to increase the part of the payment she would receive.

Helena said apologetically: "Mr. Ye... I'm really sorry for deceiving you... Please don't be angry..."

Ye Chen smiled: "It's not about being angry or not, but I wanted to divide the sales revenue 50/50 with you because I only want the AI models in exchange for the elixir. In my opinion, this is already a very favorable transaction, and as for how much additional benefits you can get based on these conditions, it depends on your personal ability and skill. So, I proposed dividing the extra revenue 50/50 with you. You took out an additional $600 billion from Howard's pocket, which is completely unexpected income to me. This amount, taking away half of it is also reasonable."

Helena lightly bit her lower lip for a few seconds before speaking: "Mr. Ye... but this amount is too much..."

Ye Chen waved his hand: "The amount doesn't matter; what matters is that we have reached an agreement beforehand. Since we've agreed to divide the revenue 50/50, if I earn $500 billion, I'll give you $300 billion. If I earn $600 billion, I'll also give you $300 billion."

As he spoke, Ye Chen didn't wait for her response and continued: "Tomorrow, complete the delivery, and help me sell half of the elixir to Howard. When he pays the $500 billion, I won't divide it with you; I'll just have you do this favor for me. After your transaction is completed, along with the previous $300 billion, we'll pay me a total of $800 billion."

Helena said hesitantly: "Mr. Ye... three hundred million dollars may not be much to you, but to the Northern European royal family, it's simply astronomical numbers. We... we people from the Northern European royal family are already short on funds. Even if I take away this $300 million, I still don't know what to do with it..."

Ye Chen spoke gravely: "You don't know what to do with it? Then just keep it; money isn't something that needs to be spent immediately. Is it really a crime in the West to save money?"

Three hundred billion dollars, to the Northern European royal family who are declining and have broken their fortunes, has already reached a astronomical number that cannot be described with mere words.

When Helena was just crowned as queen, the entire Northern European royal family's assets added up to only about ten billion dollars, which includes many unsellable real estate properties.

If three hundred billion dollars were really returned to the Northern European royal family, it would be equivalent to a 30-fold increase in their original assets.

What's more, these three hundred billion dollars don't contain any bad assets that are difficult to liquidate because they are cash, which is the best asset.

Helena had no sufficient psychological preparation for such a large amount of money, but Ye Chen's attitude was firm, so Helena knew in her heart that Ye Chen's words were all said and done, and if she refused again, there would be some unpleasantness left.

In her heart, she was willing to sacrifice herself for Ye Chen or even offer the throne to him; she was only obedient to Ye Chen and didn't want to leave any unpleasant impression behind.

So, after thinking carefully, she finally made up her mind to hand over the money and felt grateful towards Ye Chen, saying: "Mr. Ye, on behalf of the entire Illyria family, thank you for your generosity!" JrNovels.com
