After an extensive period of persuasion and charm, Gideon had finally won Zachary’s ‘trust.’

With an air of excitement, Gideon transferred a whopping $800,000 to Zachary’s account.

A beaming Zachary exclaimed joyfully, “Oh, my dear friend, you’re not an undercover cop! You’re the God of

Wealth!”

Impatiently, Gideon inquired, “Since I’ve paid the money, the goods are mine, right?”

Zachary handed the thunderstruck wood directly to Gideon and replied, “Take this for now. The ring will be

delivered later.”

Gideon’s joy knew no bounds as he held the thunderbolt wood, relishing its presence in his hands.

At this moment, all his bitter resentment towards Zachary dissipated. Now, all he yearned for was to find a

secluded spot and unleash the power of this thunderstruck wood, a truly magical weapon.

While they awaited the delivery, Gideon couldn’t help but inquire, “By the way, boss, do you have any more similar

items? If you do, I’d love to see them. If they’re suitable, I’ll take them all.”

Zachary shook his head and following Jagoan’s instructions, replied, “The ring and the thunderstruck wood were

given to me by my superior. He instructed me to distribute them on his behalf.”

Gideon looked around cautiously to ensure there were no eavesdroppers and whispered, “I can tell that you’re

peddling freshly dug up antiques, young man. Since you’re involved in this trade, it’s unlikely that these two items

are the only treasures from the tomb, right?”

Zachary responded earnestly, “Old man, I won’t deceive you. The matter of freshly unearthed treasures is true, but

I’m only responsible for selling them. Don’t underestimate me, my superior is even more cautious. He knows where

the treasures lie and which spots to unearth. I have no knowledge of his

actions. He only gave me these two pieces and asked me to find buyers. If I sell these successfully, he might give

me something new.”

Excitement filled Gideon’s voice as he exclaimed, “In that case, your superior must still possess other treasures!”

Then, hastily adding, he continued, “Young man, there’s something else I’d like to request.”

Zachary nonchalantly replied, “If you want something, just say it.”

Gideon said, “Could you introduce me to your superior? I’d like to purchase more items directly from him.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t do that,” Zachary replied seriously. “My superior is extremely concerned about personal

safety. He doesn’t meet or contact me unless it’s necessary. Our communication is strictly one way. If he has

something for me, he will find me, but I can’t find him.”

Zachary added, “How about this? If you’re truly interested, leave me your contact information. After I submit the

payment to my superior this time, if there are any similar items available, he will definitely give them to me. When I

receive them, I’ll contact you first.”

Gideon hesitated for a moment and ultimately decided against revealing his contact information. With modern

mobile phones, privacy was hard to maintain, as connecting to a base station for communication services revealed

one’s location. Gideon was well aware of the significance of protecting personal information, thanks to his

education under The British Lord who emphasized the importance of staying current.

Although Gideon trusted Zachary, he was still unwilling to share his contact details with a stranger. So, he said,

“Boss, considering your experience in the antique industry, you can quickly discern the quality

of items. If you come across something remarkable, keep it here and I’ll come back tomorrow or the day after if I

have the time.”

Observing Gideon’s cautious demeanor, Zachary understood that this matter shouldn’t be rushed or forced. He

patted his chest and assured him, “I’ll tell you what, Old man. You can come back tomorrow morning and take a

look.”

Gideon approached and said in a low voice, “Boss, how about this? I’ll pay you $200,000 in advance. If anything

new catches your eye, keep it for me. This way, no one else can grab it before me. If I like it after seeing it, that’s

fantastic. If not, you can sell it to someone else.”

Zachary pondered for a moment and then nodded, saying, “Alright, since you’re so eager, I won’t rush. I’ll do as

you’ve suggested.”

Gideon was thrilled and once again took out his mobile phone, transferring an additional $200,000 to Zachary’s

bank account. He had now spent a total of $1.5 million, yet he felt no pain on the contrary, he was exhilarated as if

he had struck gold.

As he looked at Zachary now, annoyance was replaced by gratitude.

Half an hour later, a courier returned the jade ring to Zachary. After signing for it, Zachary handed it to Gideon and

asked, “Is this the ring you saw at the airport?”

Gideon could sense the reiki and enchantments embedded within the jade ring, confirming that it was indeed the

one he desired.

Without hesitation, Gideon placed the jade ring alongside the other magical artifact. Overwhelmed with excitement,

he exclaimed to Zachary, “Boss, remember to keep anything new for me!”

“Don’t worry,” Zachary reassured, patting his chest. “If there are any new items in the future, I won’t show them to

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

anyone until you’ve seen them.”

Gideon smiled and replied, “Good, I appreciate it in advance!”

“No need for thanks,” Zachary replied casually. “If you ever need antique paintings and calligraphy, feel free to visit

me at Antique Street.”

“Alright,” Gideon responded, his mind entirely captivated by the two magical artifacts.

At that moment, his greatest desire was to find a secluded location and thoroughly test the power of these two

treasures. He turned to Zachary and said, “Boss, in that case, I’ll leave you to your business. If I have the time, I’ll

come back tomorrow morning.”

“Sounds good!” Zachary smiled. “Old Master, take your time. Let me see you off.”

“No need!” Gideon waved his hand and impatiently turned away, leaving Antique Street with determined strides.

As soon as he stepped out, Gideon hailed a taxi and got in, telling the driver, “Take me to the least crowded place in

Aurous Hills. Preferably deep in the mountains and forests, where there’s nobody around.”

The taxi driver was taken aback and asked, “Sir, why, at your age, are you looking for a place with no one around?

Do you doubt your own capabilities?”

Gideon pulled out a few hundred dollar bills and placed them on the dashboard, his voice turning icy as he replied,

“Enough with the questions. Just drive, or I’ll find someone else.”

As soon as the taxi driver noticed the US dollars, he promptly flashed a smile and ingratiatingly suggested, “If

you’re in search of a secluded spot, sir, allow me to take you to Phoenix Village

concealed behind Phoenix Hill Cemetery. If that’s not remote enough for you, continue past Phoenix Village and

cross a mountain. The one behind it is completely inaccessible, let alone uninhabited!”

Without a second thought, Gideon exclaimed, “Yes! Let’s go there!”
