Chapter 173 The Third Party
When Harrison heard that Scarlett wanted to work with him, he was so shocked that he didn't know where to put his hands. He hesitated for a long time and never gave an answer.
He was filled with fear of his great-grandfather.
If my great-grandfather knew that he was doing business with others, he would definitely kill him.
Scarlett noticed Harrison's uneasiness and said, "It's okay. If you don't want to, I can find someone else."
"other people?"
Harrison asked her, "Who do you want to see?"
Scarlett: "Rachel, Avni, Vivian, and Manchusa are all fine."
"Will they cooperate with you?" Harrison asked doubtfully.
"meeting."
Scarlett said seriously, "I have something they want. Just exchange it for something of equal value."
Scarlett said this innocently, but Harrison frowned when he heard it.
He thought of Rachel's plan to buy a gun, gritted his teeth, and said, "Scarlett, how about this, can you give me some time to think about it? It's too sudden, I'm not prepared."
Harrison was not Scarlett's first choice. Scarlett chose him only because he was the great-grandson of Murgaard and could better hit Murgaard's vital points.
He needed to think about it, and Scarlett gave him time to think about it.
She just used this time to do other things.
Harrison originally wanted to find Scarlett for something, but after Scarlett's interference, he forgot the purpose of his visit and drove away in a daze.
On the way back, Scarlett's words kept echoing in his mind.
It's not about doing business.
Instead, Scarlett said that his future achievements would surpass his great-grandfather.
He returned to his room, lay on the bed, and picked up the photo of his mother on the bedside table.
He stroked the photo with his fingers, slowly held it in his arms, and called out with eyes full of love: "Mom."
…
…
afternoon.
Scarlett went mining for ore again.
This time the one I brought was Dzeko.
She would be sharing a room with Dzeko at night, and she wanted to develop a good relationship with him in advance so that they wouldn't be too unfamiliar with each other.
pity.
Dzeko was a taciturn person, and he responded to every sentence with only one or two words, which made Scarlett feel like she was asking for trouble, and she didn't want to talk anymore after talking for a while.
Concentrate on digging holes.
As soon as the pit was dug, she jumped in immediately, and Zheke followed suit without saying a word.
Scarlett held up the ore with a dumbfounded look on her face. "Why did you jump down?"
Dzeko glanced upwards. "Someone's following us."
Scarlett nodded and moved closer to him, "I know."
The width of the pit was about one meter, and the two people stood face to face, not too far away.
Perhaps because they were too close, Dzeko was a little nervous and blinked a few times in panic, "Yeah."
Scarlett: “…”
Scarlett: "Someone has been following me for the past two days. At first I thought it was Matthew next door, but the color of the clothes I saw yesterday was different from Matthew's. It must be a third party."
"A third party?" Dzeko frowned.
Scarlett analyzed: "If it was someone sent by Murgaard, he wouldn't be so surprised when he saw the lapis lazuli."
"Do you know who it is?" Dzeko said with a serious face, and finally said a few more words.
Scarlett's face was filled with relief. She nodded, clenched the ore in her hand, and said, "Let's go find her now."
…
…
Scarlett came to the vicinity of Langton Street, and came to the same gem processing and recycling shop.
As she entered, Scarlett took a special look at the sign.
Michelle's Gem Processing and Recycling Shop.
It seems the boss's name is Michelle.
She walked in with Dzeko.
Michelle was sitting at the counter, her chin resting on her hand, staring blankly at something and dozing off.
She didn't react when someone entered the store. She yawned slowly, not even bothering to lift her eyelids, and casually said, "Welcome, take a look at what you like."
Scarlett looked at each item in the glass display case one by one, and finally walked to the counter and handed the ore in her hand to the boss, "Boss, I'm here to sell you something."
Michelle raised her eyes and glanced at Scarlett calmly. Just as she was about to sneer contemptuously, she paused and looked at Scarlett again.
"Is it you?"
She quickly turned her attention to Scarlett's hand.
An irregularly shaped jadeite.
Rich and pure green, sparkling, gentle and watery, with high transparency and pure texture, as clear as ice.
Michelle couldn't take her eyes off it when she saw it. She stretched out her hand, but then felt something was wrong. She wiped her hand with a handkerchief first, and then took the jade from Scarlett's hand, muttering, "Oh, my ancestors, this jade is a rare and fine product!"
Scarlett didn't give it to her. She squeezed her hand and held the emerald in her hand, not letting the boss take it. "Let's talk about the money first."
Michelle hurried out from behind the counter. She had originally planned to go around Scarlett and get closer to her, but when she turned around, she saw that there was someone following Scarlett. She had no choice but to ask Scarlett to sit on the chair next to her to admire the jewelry, and asked the person behind the counter to pour two cups of tea.
Soon, two cups of hot tea were brought over.
The male in coarse linen was placed upright in front of Scarlett.
Scarlett glanced at his clothes.
The color is wrong, but the fabric is right.
She smiled calmly and said, "Boss, how much do you think this jadeite of mine is worth?"
Scarlett spread her hands.
Michelle quickly took it, shone it in the natural light outside, took a deep breath, and then took out the special high-intensity flashlight in her arms and shone it again.
She took another deep breath, then put the jadeite and the high-intensity light into her arms. She held Scarlett's hand and said excitedly, "Sister, your jadeite is a good thing, but it's small. It can only be made into two jade pendants. I know that these jadeite pieces are all connected together. You must have more in your hand, right? Bring them all over and I'll give you a real price."
Scarlett rolled her eyes, pretending to be guilty and desperate to cover up her guilt, and said, "No more, just this one."
Michelle raised her eyebrows, “Really?”
"No." Scarlett did not change her words.
Michelle knew that Scarlett was tight-lipped and couldn't get anything out of her, so she slammed the table and said generously, "Okay, I'll take this jade! I won't bargain with you, just one price, 100,000 star coins."
As soon as Scarlett left.
Michelle immediately called out the waiter.
She took out the jade, sniffed the scent on it, and narrowed her eyes like a venomous snake. "It's the mud from Pani Mountain. Go dig there."
The humble clerk reminded him, "Boss, we dug there yesterday and found nothing."
Michelle glanced at him, "A place?"
Guy: “Yeah.”
Michelle looked at the emerald in her hand and raised her brows thoughtfully. "That's strange. Could it be that only this girl can dig out the ore?"
The waiter bowed and agreed, "Boss, this girl is really weird. How about we look for Mergaard? This girl seems to have a special relationship with her."
Michelle thought for a few seconds and ordered, "Dig first, and then tell us if you can't find anything."
Nothing and no one has ever escaped from her hands.
