242: Chapter 242: Entering the Ga 242: Chapter 242: Entering the Ga “There are so many people!” Ery Robertson exclaid in surprise as she saw the sudden influx of people.
Stephen Taylor suggested, “Since we’re all heading to the sa place, why don’t we squeeze into one car?
My business car can seat eleven people, and the others can just follow behind in the other vehicles.
What do you think?”
Ery happily agreed, “Sure, it’ll be more lively.”
As they spoke, Ery had convinced Maisy Spencer and their group to go along with the plan.
Under Ery’s persuasion, Maisy and the others quickly agreed to ride together.
Stephen Taylor paid the travel agency for their business car and told them to take it back, as they no longer needed it.
Soon, everyone got into Stephen’s business car.
In front was their car, followed by Ery’s car.
Stephen Taylor’s people decided to leave a few of them behind and not follow along, with two of them squeezing into Ery’s car instead.
Peter Brown watched everything with a smile, curious to see what these two were up to.
When he glanced at the two newcors who had arrived last night, they seed to be sleep-deprived and didn’t talk much.
As everyone chatted in the car, the atmosphere was lively as they headed towards Rui City.
When the topic of gemstone gambling ca up, Stephen Taylor said, “Actually, although the public auction is not bad, going directly to the mining site would be even better.”
Maisy Spencer agreed, “Of course, it’s so much cheaper and there’s a chance to get better stones.”
Maroon Gray comnted, “It’s a pity that we don’t have any connections.
Direct access to the mining area would be excellent.”
Stephen Taylor laughed, “If you really want to go there, I can arrange it.”
“You have connections?”
“Yes, with so ard forces.
Let make a call and ask.”
As he spoke, Stephen Taylor had already picked up the phone and started making a call.
Looks like this was the setup!
Peter Brown observed coldly, already understanding the situation of their trap.
They were going to take them to a new location.
After a while on the phone, Stephen Taylor said, “Coincidentally, they just mined a batch of rough stones.
I told them about a group of wealthy people who want to visit, and they are more than welcoming.”
Ella Johnson asked, “Is it safe?”
“You can rest assured about that.
They are very reputable.
As long as we abide by the rules during the transaction, there will be no problems.”
After discussing in the car, Maisy Spencer looked at Peter Brown and asked, “What do you say?
Should we go?”
Peter Brown smiled, “I’m just following you guys, so it’s up to you.”
Ery was excited, “Great!
I’ve always wanted to see how it’s mined, and finally, I can.”
Stephen Taylor added, “We’ll have to cross the border this ti, but I have connections, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
I know a crossing where we can just drive straight through.”
Those who followed behind were instructed to wait in Rui City.
Everyone’s cars got to a secluded area, crossed the Hua Nation border, and headed directly towards the Burse side.
As expected, the soldiers at the checkpoint didn’t stop them.
After Stephen Taylor showed a docunt, they were allowed to pass imdiately.
The car continued along a mountain road, and Ella Johnson glanced at Peter Brown sitting next to her with a worried look in her eyes.
Peter knew what she was thinking; they were in an unsafe place.
Stephen Taylor laughed, “The road may be rough, but that’s intentional on their part.
After all, having such a route makes it difficult for anyone to attack them.”
“This road is much better than the ones in our village.”
Ery chid in.
After two hours, the car finally arrived at a village.
At first glance, it was a very poor mountain village, and the villagers didn’t seem very welcoming towards Peter and the others.
As everyone got out of the car to stretch their legs, Ella Johnson approached Peter and whispered, “Peter, I don’t think we should have co here.
If sothing happens, we won’t be able to get help.”
Peter smiled and took out a jade talisman from his pocket, handing it to Ella, “Sister, this is a protective talisman for you to keep.”
Seeing the jade talisman, Ella hesitated for a mont, but finally accepted it with a smile, “Alright, I’ll take it for peace of mind.”
Seeing that Ella had accepted the protective talisman, Peter breathed a sigh of relief.
The defense talisman could withstand the impact of bullets.
As long as Ella had it on her, she should be able to prevent any sudden accidents.
Now it was just Maisy Spencer left.
He would have to give her one as well, just in case he couldn’t protect both of them at the sa ti.
At that mont, Maisy ca over with a bunch of bananas, “Here, have so.”
Peter took the bananas and handed her a jade talisman, “Jessica, this is a protective talisman for you.”
Maisy chuckled, “Why did you think of giving a protective talisman?
The jade quality isn’t that great.”
Peter pretended to take it back, “Forget it then.”
Laughing, Maisy said, “I’m just kidding, I’ll take it as a token of our relationship.”
Peter explained, “I gave one to Ella too.”
“Ah, you want a threeso?”
Maisy pretended to be surprised.
Peter felt sweat forming on his forehead and quickly said, “I need to use the bathroom.” He hurriedly left.
Laughter from the two won followed him.
After a short break, the car continued on its way.
The road was still not easy, and Peter secretly observed the two bosses who had co last night.
He noticed they looked rather restless, with heavy thoughts on their minds.
These two bosses were both locals from Yunnan Province and partners of Maisy’s business.
They both dealt in jade stones.
One was nad Riley Richards, and the other was Harry Armstrong.
Ever since they arrived, they hadn’t said much and seed to have a heavy burden on their shoulders.
Peter Brown was observant and noticed that during Stephen Taylor’s speech, these two would choose to support him, clearly watching for his cues.
It seed that they were already under Stephen Taylor’s control!
As the situation developed, Peter beca increasingly curious about their tactics to deal with him.
Peter believed that if they wanted to deal with him, they must have investigated him.
If they had investigated him and still had asures to take, then it was no ordinary tactic.
Since receiving the Ancient Inheritance, Peter’s self-confidence had been very strong, and he wanted to see what kind of tactics existed on this Earth.
Of course, now that they were going to the rough stone mining site, Peter also wanted to see if he could get more jade stones.
Even though this trip involved so risks, he was determined to check it out.
