I Spy With My Secret Eyes

Chapter 190

Compared to the real value, Ken instantly felt that his son was a profiteer! Given 20,000 dollars, he made 20 million dollars.

At least 20 million dollars, maybe more.

To call him a profiteer would have been kind. He was worse even than Shylock.

Ken thought for a while and then asked Oliver again, “Son, is this… battered book really worth that much? Is it possible that you’re also mistaken?”

Oliver shook his head and said, “Dad, don’t worry about it. I can’t be wrong. Besides, it doesn’t matter even if it is worthless. I am not short of money. Even if I lose money, it doesn’t matter as long as I think it’s worth it.”

Ken thought it was true. His son didn’t lack for money anyway. Even if Oliver had been fooled, such little money as this didn’t matter.

-Anyway, he and his wife still had more than 20 million dollars in cash, not to mention so many shops and houses. Even if their son’s business failed, they would still have enough money for the rest of their lives.

Not to mention what a streak his son was on.

Ken pressed his lips together, but didn’t know what more to say. He went

out.

Oliver asked Fabian to take the other two things outside into his

collection room, and he himself took the old fist guidebook back to his office.

He wanted to read quietly for a while.

Back in his office, Oliver closed the door and sat down to read this book carefully.

The book was written by Raymond Allen himself. The beginning of the book mentioned the origin of the Style Fist.

There were three theories about the origin of the Style Fist. One is that Bodhidharma himself created it. A poet once said: Dharma’s teachings have no words at all. His combat arts can only be understood using the mind. If one were to write his teachings down on paper, he would use up all the ink in the world.

The second said that the Style Fist was created by Andrew Griffiths. In the preface of some fist guidebooks, it was written that when Andrew was young, he had been taught by a famous teacher, and became proficient in martial arts, using his fists in place of spears, creating his own wonderful, unpredictable and unprecedented style.
