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.”
