Chapter 723: Chapter 0724: Property Certificate [Fifth Update]

When Archbishop Otto seemed inclined to force his way, he suddenly noticed the gaze of the upper-class witnesses at the banquet. Knowing that unless they had direct evidence proving the missing monks and nuns were here, they would not be able to forcibly search the place.

"Count Charley, you are very fortunate. Today, in consideration of so many upper-class witnesses here, I will let you off this once, but it won’t be so simple next time!"

After saying this, Archbishop Otto got into the carriage.

He knew that the upper-class guests attending the dinner that evening were, to varying degrees, associated with Count Charley’s religious cult, which was his cause for concern.

After all, the existence of this vampiric cult dates back thousands of years, especially during the dark Middle Ages when it was at times more formidable than the Holy Church.

It wasn’t until recent times that the Holy Church regained recognition from the royal families across Europe and spread throughout the world.

However, Archbishop Otto knew that the existence of this bloodsucking cult was always a cancer, especially now that so many influential figures were involved.

Archbishop Otto, accompanied by members of the Knights Templar, had come in haste and left just as hurriedly.

It seemed as though these people came only to create a disturbance!

Seeing Archbishop Otto leaving with his men, Count Charley was still very angry, thinking who might have secretly reported to Archbishop Otto. If he found out who it was, he vowed to flay them and break their bones.

"It’s over, it’s over!"

Count Charley reassured the esteemed guests, but the banquet, which was about to end, was abruptly disrupted by Archbishop Otto and his entourage, forcing an early conclusion to the evening.

As some guests prepared to leave and others contemplated staying,

most made a point of personally bidding farewell to Ye Qiu, a testament to their high regard for his abilities and their wish to become friends with him.

The evening’s dinner ended earlier than anticipated, which was almost as Ye Qiu had expected. Yet, he wondered who could have intentionally reported them?

As Ye Qiu, Zhou Wenting, and Louise were heading back to the large castle, Zhou Wenting stayed close to him, unmistakably more fearful of this particular castle.

She wanted to leave this place with Ye Qiu as soon as possible.

However, at the prematurely concluded dinner that night, Ye Qiu had yet to see the property deed for the castle and the one hundred thousand square meters of estate land.

"Dr. Ye, I wanted to transfer the deed to you for Eastern Castle and its estate land tonight in front of all the distinguished guests. But we were interrupted by those demons, so now I can only present it to you like this,"

said Count Charley.

He was a man of his word and, moreover, he increasingly valued Ye Qiu.

Indeed, Ye Qiu saw Ivan the butler bring a wrapped item. When Ye Qiu unwrapped it, it was the property deed for Count Charley’s castle located on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, which now belonged to Ye Qiu. The details marked on it included the address of Eastern Castle, its size, transfer date, and owner. Since it was for an indefinite period, there was only a date of transfer, with no expiration of ownership.

Moreover, the one hundred thousand square meters of the estate surrounding Eastern Castle were now under Ye Qiu’s name.

In addition to the original property deed, there were also relevant documents from the French government, which seemed very recent, likely issued not long ago.

Seeing the signatures and stamps, Ye Qiu knew they were undoubtedly authentic.

"Count Charley, thank you!"

Ye Qiu said nothing more.

For he knew that this was his due. Otherwise, he would never have come all the way to France to treat an old man on the brink of death.

Count Charley saw that Ye Qiu had accepted it and smiled, but he said nothing more. Besides, he had many matters to handle this evening, so he left first.

During the dinner party, although dancing with Louise and Zhou Wenting was not very strenuous, Ye Qiu felt sweat on his back and decided to take a bath first.

As two young maids led Ye Qiu up to the seventh floor, Louise said, "Dr. Ye, congratulations, you are now a viscount."

"A viscount?"

"Yes, Count Charley secured it for you."

In reality, Ye Qiu wasn’t the only foreigner to have been made a French viscount. Many foreign businessmen in France could easily get a title if they bought a substantial amount of land and assets.

However, French titles are not worth much now; they are merely honorary and sound good when spoken, akin to titles like professor or expert.

This was why Count Charley had not mentioned it to Ye Qiu earlier. Still, if one were to search for those holding French titles, Ye Qiu’s name would certainly appear in the latest registration.

Ye Qiu knew that titles were of little utility now, especially since, except perhaps for their popularity in Hong Kong, they were of no interest in Mainland China.

After placing the certificate for his Eastern Castle and the one hundred thousand square meters of estate into the backpack in his room, Ye Qiu prepared to go to the bathroom to bathe.

But he didn’t go to the bathroom immediately.

Instead, he organized the information from the evening, including the contact details of the upper-class individuals collected at the dinner party—which were all memorized by Ye Qiu. Perhaps in the future, there might be opportunities for collaboration when he visits France again or when they come to Huaxia.

Of course, this pertained to jewelry, cosmetics, clothing, and so forth. Ye Qiu already knew there was potential for collaboration with Shen Yueru’s Xingyue Group and Zhou Yuxia’s Zhou Dabao Jewelry Group.

Such opportunities were rare, not least because the French often looked down on Huaxia businessmen, so collaboration was usually minimal.

But this time was different for Ye Qiu. He knew it was a chance for Xingyue Group and Zhou Dabao Jewelry Group to establish themselves as international brands.

After placing these business cards in his backpack,

Ye Qiu realized he had been at the castle for nearly a week and that he would soon be leaving.

As for whether Archbishop Otto or Archbishop Charley’s factions were of the Holy Church or a cult, he had no interest whatsoever.

Now, as it was nearing midnight, Ye Qiu decided to take a bath first and then sleep, planning to have morning tea tomorrow and then leave by car.

Just as Ye Qiu was about to open his door and head to the bathroom alone to bathe, he didn’t expect to find those two young and beautiful maids already waiting for him and looking at him with a strange gaze.

"Give me the robe. I’ll bathe on my own; no need to accompany me."

Even though these young and beautiful maids had personally attended to his bathing these past days—a heavenly indulgence he had not experienced back home—

Ye Qiu now preferred not to have any more contact with the young and beautiful maids.
