"John, come over here for a bit."
"What's wrong? Did John Jr. get into trouble? "
"No, I have something to show you."
Before long, Hardedef came over. Risfar brought Hardedef to his room and played the surveillance footage he had picked out.
"Risfar, what do you mean?"
"This should be the person who healed Coy," Risfar said. "Look at the time. You met here for the first time. He came out of the hospital and you almost bumped into him …"
John watched the footage silently. No one knew what he was thinking.
"Then here, Dr. Farr called him. She seemed to be begging him. After hanging up, Dr. Farr clearly relaxed."
Risfar retrieved the surveillance footage from various locations and played it for John to see.
"John, I want to know what kind of deal you made with Dr. Farr. How did you get her to ask this Chinese man for help?"
"Other than promising to keep it a secret, I didn't make any deals," John said with a troubled expression.
He was grateful to Farr and this Chinese, but he also hoped that his sister could recover.
"Did she take your money?"
"No … Other than the normal hospital fees, I didn't pay her anything else."
"Is Dr. Farr familiar with Coy?"
"I think so. Dr. Farr had just arrived at the hospital and was still an intern. Her first patient was helping the main doctor treat Coy. Later on, I went to the hospital many times and saw Dr. Farr playing with Coy. They're really close. I think Dr. Farr treats Coy like her own brother."
Risfar could not help but feel that John Jr. was lucky to have met a savior.
"John, help me talk to Dr. Farr. Ask her to help my Lora too."
"Risfar, I also want Lora to get better, but I think the Chinese is the leader here, not Dr. Farr. So, I suggest you think of a solution from this angle."
"What solution?"
"Collect his information first. We don't know anything about him right now. There's no point in worrying."
…
"Ada, my father told me to tell you something," Obitos suddenly said, running to Chen Zhao.
"What is it?"
"My father said that he needs a large number of Precious Stones."
"What is a Gem Stone?"
"Pearl."
"Pearl? Are you sure he said pearls? Is he planning to sell it in Hell? "
"That's what he told me."
A large number of pearls? Where was he going to find a large number of pearls?
Chen Zhao felt that Obitos' message was very sudden.
"How much does your father want?"
"A thousand kilos," Obitos said.
"What does your father want jade for?"
"I don't know, but it sounds urgent."
"How anxious?"
"It's very urgent."
"Are there any requirements for quality?"
"He didn't say."
"If you didn't say it means you don't have any requirements, right?"
If there was no quality requirement, then he had enough money on hand.
It was impossible for him to get high-quality pearls for Beelzebub Zofee with 50 kilograms of pearls.
Chen Zhao didn't know much about this, so he didn't know the exact market price.
There was a huge gap between the prices of high-quality and low-quality pearls. Some individual pearls could reach tens of thousands of dollars each.
Some were sold by weight. Chen Zhao thought for a moment and called Morgery.
"Morgery."
"What's up?"
"Do you know any pearl-selling merchants?"
"Nope."
"Okay, that's it."
"By the way, some parts of my hair have grown out and some parts are still bald. It's too ugly. When can you treat me again?"
"In a few days. I'm busy now."
"So I have to have this ugly hairstyle?"
"How about you shave it all off?"
"No, my hair just grew out. I don't want to shave it."
"I'm hanging up. I'm busy."
"If it's urgent, I'll ask around for you too."
"You go ahead and ask around. I'll ask around as well."
After hanging up, Chen Zhao called Zola.
"Zola, how are you?"
"Chen, you wouldn't call me if you didn't have anything important. Are you going to break up with me after you get a girlfriend?"
"Uh … no such thing, I'm just a little busy recently, that's all."
"Tell me, what's up?"
"Do you know any jewelers? I want to buy pearls. Lots of pearls. "
"What do you want pearls for? Never mind, I don't care. I know a jeweler. I can ask for you. What quality and quantity do you need? "
"Any quality. One thousand kilograms."
"I thought you were going to use them in medicine. I heard that Chinese have the habit of using pearls in medicine. It seems that you're not."
Ten minutes later, an unfamiliar call came in.
"Hello, are you Mr. Chen?"
"Yes, it's me. May I know who you are?"
"I'm a jeweler. My name is Spike. I mainly sell pearls. Zola asked me to call you. Are you buying pearls?"
"Yes, I want to know the price."
"Do you need artificially cultivated pearls or natural pearls?"
"What's the price?"
"Artificially cultivated pearls are about $38 per kilogram, while natural pearls are $280 per kilogram."
The difference between artificially cultivated pearls and natural pearls was seven to eight times.
Chen Zhao thought about it. It was said that artificially cultivated pearls and natural pearls were quite different.
If he brought artificially cultivated pearls to Hell, Beelzebub Zofee might not be able to use them. He might as well get it done in one go.
"I need natural pearls."
"How much?"
"One thousand kilograms."
"That much?"
Spike was surprised. After a moment of silence, he said, "I need two days to prepare. Is that okay?"
"Obitos, is two days okay?"
"Okay, I'll talk to Dad," Obitos replied.
"Mr. Spike, since I'm buying so much, can you give me a discount?"
"What do you think the price is?" Chen Zhao asked tentatively.
"Two hundred and forty per kilogram."
"Okay," Spike agreed without hesitation.
Chen Zhao regretted it. It seemed that his price was still too high.
However, he didn't feel too conflicted about the price.
After making the appointment with Spike, Chen Zhao started thinking.
What exactly did Beelzebub Zofee want so many pearls for?
Also, Hell seemed to call them precious stones.
