Chapter 72 New Goals(1/2)
(Anti-theft)
Because the other party was Jefferson Longbottom, Su Mei clearly told him the cause and effect of the curse gem incident to him, because he was the person who was most likely to save the entire Beckland.
The premise is that Su Mei can gain the trust of Mr. Longbottom.
After hearing Su Mei's words, Longbottom fell into a brief meditation.
His hand gently pinched his chin.
"Arrogance, gluttony and rage." Mr. Longbottom said these three words.
Then he looked at Su Mei and Ke Yao, "Thank you very much for coming to me, and thank you very much for believing that I am willing to inform me of all this."
"Since that's the case, I also want to show some sincerity that belongs to me."
As he said this, Mr. Longbottom clapped his hands gently again, and the old butler in a tuxedo came to Mr. Longbottom quietly.
"Sir, what are your instructions?" said the old butler.
"Take out those dirty gems," said Mr. Longbottom.
The old butler bowed slightly, then turned around and left. Soon, he brought a tray back to the living room and placed the tray on the coffee table in front of the three people.
"What are some instructions?" said the old butler.
Mr. Longbottom shook his head, and then the old housekeeper bent down and saluted and left.
On the other side, Mr. Longbottom quietly opened the tray. Lu Yuan and the other two saw dozens of colorful gems in various shapes displayed on the tray.
However, it can also be seen with the naked eye that these gems are not pure enough, with turbid impurities visible to the naked eye.
"May I ask, is this the so-called flesh and blood gem?" Mr. Longbottom looked at Lu Yuan and the other two and asked quietly.
"We cannot be sure, we must let Dr. Mostan identify it before we can draw a conclusion." Miss Ke Yao looked at the gems and said, "But for now, we think these gems have many similarities with the curse gems we have seen."
"That's right." Mr. Longbottom sighed and said, "The transaction volume of gems has increased recently on the black market. I have received many good-quality but low-priced gems from different channels, but I didn't take them to heart at first."
"Because even if you warn me at that time, I will only regard what you said as nonsense."
"And after that, as the first wave of gems was gradually digested," Mr. Longbottom looked at the three people and shrugged lightly. "Don't look at me like this. Those gems are cheap, well-textured, and even have irresistible magic. As long as you have touched those gems, you should understand how easy it is to sell those gems."
"So it's not impossible for me to sell them all in one go."
"Of course, I'm just a businessman who controls the market. I haven't seen these gems with my own eyes, at least most of them have not seen them with my own eyes."
Mr Longbottom added.
"So don't you know the sales channels of those gems?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but speak.
"Know." Mr. Longbottom looked at Lu Yuan, but it is useless to know."
"Compared with the gems I currently operate, the amount of cursed gems is only one-tenth of them. We cannot distinguish between cursed gems and ordinary gems. After all, similarity is not a reason for crime."
"We have no way to accuse all the quality gems of curse, and these gems are seamless."
"And my customers are all over the nobles and wealthy businessmen of Beckland."
“You can think they are all potential victims.”
Lu Yuan fell silent because he had to admit that what Mr. Longbottom said made sense.
Before the curse gem really triggers the infection, there is almost no way to identify the passage.
Of course, using a microscope to observe gems like Dr. Mostan did, to see if there were terrible ancient bacteria, is of course one of the important means, but this is too slow and too expensive.
Because those gems are too expensive, the cost of destroying those moisturizing is too great.
"If you can find the antidote, then I can use my sales channels to deliver these antidotes to all my gem customers quietly." Mr. Longbottom looked at Lu Yuansumei and the others, and the big man's expression was calm and had a little subtle color.
"But if you disturb and pick on the big men of Beckland in the name of thoroughly investigating gem disease, it will lead to very bad consequences."
"No one wants to be discredited, no one wants to be found suffering from such a terrible disease."
"So, keep silent."
"keep Calm."
"Then are there anything else you can help us?" Lu Yuan could not hide his fatigue and disappointment and looked at Mr. Longbottom.
"Of course there is." Mr. Longbottom pointed to the turbid gems in front of him.
"These gems were the second batch that flowed into the market. In fact, I was a little confused about the first batch of gems. I have already told my subordinates to record them if they receive similar gems again."
"But it has not been received for a long time. Now it seems that the cursed gems were taken from the sculpture of the Egyptian pharaoh, so the total number is quite limited."
"But that wasn't waiting for the curse gems, but I waited for the dirty gems."
"They have poor quality, but they are very cheap and the supply is very large."
"After receiving these gems, my subordinates immediately reported to me, and I also got samples of these gems as soon as possible."
"Although it feels a bit incredible, I suppressed this batch of gems out of careful consideration, and soon after, you came to me."
"After stopping your words," Mr. Longbottom looked at Lu Yuan and the other two, "I only understood the origin of these gems."
"And now, can you tell me what this means?"
Mr. Longbottom's blue eyes were slightly sly.
“It means someone is selling flesh and blood gems.”
"Then someone is mass-making gemstone people."
"And that man has a curse gem in his hand, and probably more than one more piece."
Lu Yuan, Su Mei, Ke Yao and the other three expressed their judgments one after another.
Mr. Longbottom applauded gently "It's simple but keen reasoning."
"Yes, I think so too." Mr. Longbottom looked at the three people. "I can't tell you the names of my customers, because the entire Beckland senior management is my customers. The consumers of gems are always from the top of the social class, but the people who sell gems are often the bottom of society."
"In a sense, this is also a kind of redistribution of wealth."
Mr. Longbottom smiled calmly.
"Do you guys want to know the name of the person who sold these gems?"
Ke Yao nodded.
"Please tell us the names and identities of the people who sold these flesh and blood gems."
Mr. Longbottom smiled, then gently spit out a string of names "Paul Renne."
"The Dean of the Lambes Asylum."
