William, who had deliberately taken out the gold coins in front of so many people, had originally wanted to build momentum for the Martian gold coins.
However, there were so many people around. If someone wanted to sell it, would he satisfy their request?
If he really did that, the effect would definitely not be as good as selling only one.
Therefore, William waved at Anthony and looked at the middle-aged reporter. "Sorry, buddy, this thing was originally intended for Wilson to play with, so I only brought ten from the spaceship."
When Anthony heard this, he immediately understood what William meant by waving at him. He quickly took out five gold coins from his pocket.
However, William only took one and said to the middle-aged reporter, "20,000 USD for one, I promise you won't lose out, because although I haven't counted these gold coins carefully, the number of them will not exceed 200."
Two hundred?
Everyone who heard this could not help but curse out loud.
If the number really did not exceed 200, then accepting 20,000 USD would not be a loss, but a big profit.
Even if it was difficult to raise the price in a short period of time, it would definitely not depreciate. However, after a few years or more, the price would be hard to say.
If William's achievements were higher than now, then the price of the gold coins would definitely skyrocket.
The middle-aged reporter, who understood this, quickly took the gold coins and thanked him repeatedly, "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Devonshire. I'll transfer the money to you now."
"Wait, it's only 20,000 USD. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
William glanced around at the people who were watching him and said with a smile, "This 20,000 USD will be the money for a big meal. How about it?"
The middle-aged reporter looked back at the people around him and found that there were only thirty or forty people, so he agreed immediately.
"No problem, Mr. Devonshire. I promise to take everyone who is willing to go to the dinner party and spend this 20,000 USD."
"Okay, goodbye, gentlemen."
"Goodbye, Mr. Devonshire."
There was a big meal, and it was 20,000 USD for less than forty people. It was 500 USD per person, and it would not be a problem to order a luxurious set meal from a Michelin three-star restaurant.
Therefore, when William left, the reporters all clapped and cheered at his back.
After leaving the press conference hall, William asked Anthony and the rest to go home while he brought Abigail and Wilson to the palace.
"Buddy, don't forget what you just said. Those gold coins were for me, so don't forget to send ten over, or I can go to your house to get them."
"Can't you tell that when I said I'll give it to you, I said it on purpose for the reporters to hear?"
"I don't care about that, William. Anyway, I heard that you personally gave the gold to me, but in the end, you gave it to someone else."
Walking into the palace and seeing that William's expression did not change at all, Wilson pushed his luck and said, "Isn't ten a little too little? It's not even enough for me and my brothers. "
"What does that have to do with me? Just ten."
William was not bothered by the fact that Wilson had never introduced his brothers to him.
If he had an extremely powerful friend, he would also not introduce him to his brothers who were competing with him.
As soon as they entered the palace hall, the white-haired butler immediately stepped forward and bowed, "Your Excellency, His Majesty Philip has been waiting for you for a long time. Please follow me."
"Wait." William would not listen to what the butler said. He turned to Abigail and said, "You and Wilson go to Prince Charles' side and stay with him. No matter who it is, no matter what they say to you, don't leave this hall."
These words scared Abigail so much that her face turned pale. She grabbed his arm tightly, "I, I can't follow you?" "Darling."
"No." Thinking of his own guess, William shook his head and said, "There are some things that won't be beneficial for you to know."
William took the initiative to bring Abby and Wilson to Charles and his wife. After greeting them for a while, William followed the old butler out of the hall and walked downstairs.
When they arrived outside the interrogation room, the old butler was about to bring William into the interrogation room, but he was stopped by the person in charge of guarding the room.
"Sorry, you said that only His Majesty Philip and the Grand Duke of Devonshire have the right to contact Viscount Charles in the interrogation room."
The old butler was stunned, then he smiled bitterly and said to William helplessly, "It seems that I can only wait here for you and His Majesty Philip."
Scanning the interrogation room with his spiritual force, William found that Charles was chained to a metal table, while Philip was in another room, looking at Charles through a one-way glass.
After nodding to the old butler, William directly opened the door to Philip's room.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Philip looked back and saw William in the room. He then turned back and continued to look at Charles in the interrogation room.
When William stood beside him and looked at Charles as well, Philip said, "I suspect that I was bewitched by Charles Cavendish and suspected him, but how did you find out that there was a problem with him?"
William did not answer directly. Instead, he asked, "What did he say to you? Did he make you feel that he could threaten me? "
"A lot."
Philip turned his head to look at William. Seeing that his expression was very relaxed, Philip suddenly understood that William was definitely not afraid of the things that Charles Cavendish had exposed.
Therefore, Philip did not intend to probe any further and said directly, "Tell me how you helped him get the inheritance of the Marko Kans family.
With this as a threat, you snatched the Kans team, which is the Aston Martin team that is currently participating in the F1 competition, snatched the manor at Lake Como in Italy, and snatched the Château Margaux.
"Tell me how you helped the Grand Duke of Devonshire and a few other great nobles eliminate the underground forces of several countries in Eastern Europe and earn at least one billion dollars a year from them."
"That's all?" William was not surprised, but he asked doubtfully, "You think you can control me with just this?
That's impossible. With your shrewdness and experience, how could you believe Charles Cavendish's nonsense? "
"That's why after I was awakened by you, the first thing I suspected was that I had been tampered with. That's why I thought of directly controlling this guy inside."
Looking at Charles outside the glass wall again, Philip frowned, "Tell me, is this guy who looks exactly like Charles Cavendish, who even has no problems with his DNA, Viscount Charles Cavendish?"
"Hmm?" William looked at Philip in surprise, "Why do you ask? Where did you know? "
"I am the King of England. Although I have no secular power, it does not mean that I have no other power as a king, understand?"
"I understand. Isn't it just that I can command some people or forces with extraordinary abilities?" "What's so hard to understand?"
"So, you are indeed favored by extraordinary powers. Otherwise, no matter how smart you are, it would be impossible for you to be smart enough to crush all the scientists in the world and invent and build a spaceship by yourself."
Hmm? It could be explained like that?
