“Scarface, get rid of the crowd. There's nothing to see here,” Tommy instructed.
“Shoo! Go away, all of you. What's there to see here? Whoever forcibly buys or sells something the next time, this will be the consequence!” Scarface roared at the crowd, causing everyone to scatter.
“Mr. Chance, are you looking for anything in particular? There's nothing really interesting here at the stalls. The truly good stuff is inside!” Tommy explained.
“I would like to buy a spiritual brush and cinnabar rosary. Do you have them here?” Jared asked.
Tommy was baffled as he didn't know what the spiritual brush Jared was talking about was. Also, cinnabar rosaries could be found everywhere.
Despite that, he didn't dare clarify. Instead, he respectfully replied, “Mr. Chance, I'll take you to a couple of antique shops where you can check if they have what you need. To be honest, I don't really know much about this stuff either.” “Sure, lead the way!” Jared nodded.
With Tommy personally guiding Jared, the antique shop owners brought out their best wares. Unfortunately, none of them was what Jared was looking for.
By then, Tommy was at the end of his wits. “Mr. Chance, this is all that Antique Street has to offer. Since you haven't found what you need, do you want me to send my men to check other places?”
“It's fine. This search boils down to luck.
Even if they see it, they probably wouldn't recognize it.
Jared waved his hand as he was aware that it was futile.
“That's true.” Tommy nodded in agreement.
“In that case, it's time I take my leave.”
Since he had failed to find what he was looking for, there was no reason for him to stay any longer.
