Chapter 239: Lost
After saying goodbye to Rottlett and Lin Ruhai, they left first, and Lin Ruhai and the others were taken to a more private room by the guys in the restaurant.
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Smith will come over later" The man served tea to Lin Ruhai and left after they left.
After a time of incense, Smith walked in with a smile on his face, "Lord Lin Island is really generous today."
"It's nothing, it's just that I met what I wanted, Mr. Smith is proud of it now."
"Thanks to the generosity of the Lord of Lim," Smith smiled.
Lin Ruhai didn't answer, picked up the tea bowl in his hand and drank tea.
When Smith was about to say something again, suddenly a middle-aged man pushed the door in, saw Lin Ruhai and smiled unnaturally and saluted, then walked to Smith's side, whispered a word in his ear, and the smile on Smith's face immediately disappeared, and was replaced by a shocked watch. He forced himself to squeeze out a smile at Lin Ruhai and said, "Lord Lin Island, I will be absent for a while, there are some urgent matters that I need to deal with." ”
"Mr. Smith, please take it, but it's getting late, I hope Mr. Smith can quickly bring the gems I photographed, let's finish the transaction as soon as possible, and we will go back to the inn to rest early," Lin Ruhai said with a smile.
Smith's eyes dodged, and he said perfunctorily, "Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible," and after speaking, he left with the middle-aged man who came in just now.
Lin Ruhai and the old shadow looked at each other and smiled, and tacitly lowered their heads to drink tea.
Half an hour later, Smith walked in, sweating profusely, looking dejected and depressed.
"Mr. Smith, you're finally back, my gems, let's trade quickly, I'm already impatient" Lin Ruhai asked him for gems before Smith could speak.
Smith closed his eyes, then walked to the chair opposite Lin Ruhai and sat down, lowered his head and said, "I'm very sorry Lord Lin, I have waited for you for a long time, and I regret to tell you that the gems you took were stolen." I just went to find out about it. However, the guards came to see it, and found no clues. The room where the gems were placed was a secret room, and I always carried the key to open the secret room, but I don't know how the thief managed to take all of our auction items in a closed secret room, so I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I can't trade the gems with you."
After Smith's words, there was silence in the room, which made Smith break out in a cold sweat. He has been doing business in Luzon for many years, and he has long heard of the legend of Linjia Island, and now when he sees Lin Ruhai, he is overwhelmed by his cold momentum, but his greed for money makes him obey the words of the Great Elder, and the Great Elder calculates Lin Ruhai. As a result, the legend came true, and all those who had malicious or ill intentions towards Lin Jiadao would not end well, and the gold and silver would disappear before they arrived. He finally believed that the people of Linjiadao were the messengers of God and the people who were protected by God.
But is it just that simple, Smith still underestimated Lin Ruhai.
"Mr. Smith aside, if those gems were actually stolen, you won't forget the rules you made yourself."
"What" Lin Ruhai's sudden question made Smith not react at all.
"Hehe, as far as I know, when Mr. Smith was running this auction, he announced some rules about auctioning goods. One of them is that if the transaction cannot be completed due to the reasons of one party, double the transaction price of the other party shall be compensated as compensation"
Lin Ruhai's words made Smith like a lightning strike, for so many years, there has never been a transaction failure, and he has long forgotten these so-called rules. But Lin Ruhai proposed this rule at this time, obviously to let him compensate Lin Ruhai for double the transaction price, how could he have so much gold and silver to compensate, not to mention that if Lin Ruhai started here, then he also rushed to compensate for what to do
"Lord of the Forest"
"Mr. Smith, I've always been a one-size-fits-all person, and if the auction didn't have this rule, I wouldn't say much about it, just because I was unlucky. But since there is such a rule, if Mr. Smith does not fulfill his words, I will doubt your character, and I am afraid that it will have a great impact on your reputation, after all, you are a businessman, if you do not have a good reputation, who will cooperate with you."
Smith was speechless by Lin Ruhai's words, and the large beads of sweat on his forehead fell on the floor, remembering the sound of popping.
"It's getting late, I'll go back first, and I'll leave Luzon and go back to Linjia Island, hoping that Mr. Smith will give me an explanation before then. Farewell"
Lin Ruhai was the first to walk out of the room, the old shadow stayed at the end, he raised his hand to make a silver horn, the tea bowl in front of Smith was pierced, the tea flowed out of the round holes on both sides, and the startled Smith grew his mouth. The old shadow sneered and turned away, and the moment the door closed, the chair that Lin Ruhai had been sitting on just now shattered with a bang, and Smith exclaimed in fright, "Oh my God, it's terrible, it's terrible."
Back in the inn, the twenty-seventh uncle was sitting in the hall with Erlang's legs crossed, eating pastries, and when he saw Lin Ruhai and them coming back, he immediately said, "Master, you are back"
"Well, that's it"
"The subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored"
"Yes, Uncle Twenty-Seven is still not old," Lin Ruhai quipped.
Uncle Twenty-Seven smirked and scratched his head and said, "My subordinates haven't made a move for many years, but I didn't expect that I haven't forgotten my ability."
"Alright, don't be too complacent, where are the things?" said the old shadow.
"It's all in the master's room."
Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "It's already late tonight, everyone sleeps on those things, except for the gems, you all share the rest."
"Thank you, master," the old guards thanked at the same time.
Lin Ruhai turned to his room, saw a large pile of things on the table, sneered, and took out three small cloth bags containing gems from inside. Walked to the side and sat down, opened one of the small cloth bags, and took out the pink diamond inside, the dazzling gem was held in Lin Ruhai's hand, and looked at the candlelight, it actually emitted a colorful light. The pink color reminded Lin Ruhai of Jia Min's face when he was shy, and he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips and laugh, he felt that his little wife would definitely like this pink diamond, and he wanted to find the top master to create a unique jewelry for his Min'er.
