Boom, boom, boom
The knocking on the door interrupted Zack Wallaceâs inner rant.
He walked over to open the door, and the person outside said, âMr. Dalton is back.â
Mr. Dalton, full name Hunter Dalton, was the boss of Equinox Geomancy and Numerology Company and the guy who sold Alexander Summers a phone lanyard last time.
However, in their line of work, they donât call their boss âboss,â but rather âMr.,â as if it added an extra touch of refinement compared to ordinary businessmen.
Zack Wallace couldnât stand Hunter Dalton, always feeling that he didnât resemble a mage but rather a con artist.
But Alexander Summers seemed to value this man, and even brought him to Parrotbeak Bay this time, saying he wanted him to check out the geomancy.
Zack Wallace felt an even stronger sense of impending crisis.
After Hunter Dalton came in, Alexander Summers put away his phone.
âHow does it look?â he asked.
Hunter Dalton replied, âThe water flow of Parrotbeak Bay to the south is abundant. The water enters quickly and exits slowly, forming a winding pool of treasure in the middle; to the north, three large mountains stand together, firm as a fortress, able to gather wealth and keep wealth, making it a rare treasure. If you can buy this place, no matter what business you do, it will be smooth sailing and everything will go well.â
Zack Wallace scoffed inwardly: What a flatterer! With Master Xanderâs abilities and influence, of course, he could make money no matter what business he did!
However, as the old saying goes, flattery doesnât wear thin. No one doesnât like to hear good words, and maybe this is Hunter Daltonâs secret to success.
A faint smile appeared on Alexander Summersâs lips, obviously in a good mood.
Hunter Dalton added, âIf you can place a spiritually powerful artifact in the middle of the three mountains, it would not only attract fortune but also ward off evil, completing this already perfect scene.â
When Zack Wallace heard this, he knew that Hunter Dalton wanted to sell another product and sneered coldly: âYouâre not going to say you have such an artifact in your company, are you?â
Hunter Dalton grinned, âMr. King has a keen foresight. Indeed, I have a Qin Dynasty sacrificial cauldron in my possession. Itâs full of powerful energy, but unfortunately, there are only a few people in this world who are fated to enjoy it. I think Master Xander is born with nobility, and if he could have this cauldron, it would give him wings.â
Following Alexander Summers through all sorts of trials, Zack Wallace truly hadnât seen anyone able to perform shamelessness so nonchalantly.
âJust name your price!â
Hunter Dalton smiled, âEight million.â
âYou really dare to ask!â Zack Wallace said bluntly, âA Qin Dynasty item, that must be over two thousand years old, right? Itâs probably all rusted and rotten by now! You have the nerve to ask for eight million?â
Hunter Daltonâs smile was still gentle, and he calmly replied, âI wouldnât dare to deceive you; this price is already discounted. Mr. King, you must be well aware that if it were put up for auction, it would never be sold for less than 15 million.â
Zack Wallace didnât give in, âAuction prices are inflated, with no real demand.â
Hunter Dalton nodded in agreement, âYouâre right. Such a good item can only be acquired by Master Xander.â
Zack Wallace was speechless. Well, the ball was kicked back by this guy again.
Eight million wasnât much to Alexander Summers, who had several casinos in his hands, with daily revenue in the billions, but if Zack Wallace didnât haggle, he wouldnât be happy.
Being extravagant was fine, but if one was seen as an easy target, it would be a joke! Zack Wallace would not allow that to happen.
As for the eight million, Alexander Summers didnât dwell on it. He lit a cigarette and leaned lazily back in the black leather chair, his demeanor cold and aloof.
Amidst the lingering smoke, Alexander Summers asked Hunter Dalton, âDid you find the item I asked you to look for last time?â
Zack Wallace immediately perked up his ears.
What item? Why didnât he know about it?! How could he, as a confidant, not know something?!
Zack Wallace suspected that he was falling out of favor..
