Most people in the black market would only suffer loss. Even if they were rich enough to buy something here, what they bought might be taken back in some way or other in the end.
This was the black market, an unknown but nefarious place. Although this place was underground, if you could carve out a place for yourself here, you would gain not only wealth but also reputation.
However, most people were rich before they started their business here. The black market was not like the place where the gang was prevalent, but a place where people would choose to stay small.
Everything that beyond your imagination would happen here.
"Boss, we got the news that Jacob has been here recently, and he has done a big deal a few days ago."
The men in black cautiously half bowed beside Thompson. Were people unequal at birth? Maybe not.
However, everyone had different life. Some people could be superior, while others could only be inferior.
This made people doubt if life was really equal to everyone. But everyone had accepted their fate when they were born, so there would be so many competitions in this society.
"What deal? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Thompson frowned. What does it mean? Would Jacob also want to venture into business in the black market?
Although Thompson was not afraid his opponent, he was still a little worried when he thought of his stupid teammate.
"I don't know the details. Jacob bid for a jade at a sky-high price at an auction."
The man in black bent down again and was a little worried about what Thompson would do next.
"What? He took away the jade I want?" Thompson's face darkened.
"Yes, I'm sorry, boss. I couldn't stop him." The man in black blushed. His professional ethics didn't allow him to look panic, but in fact, he was not that calm like he looked in his heart.
"Forget it. It's not your fault. Why did he want that jade? " Thompson squinted his eyes. He had planned to show the jade in his jewelry shop.
But how did Jacob know about that jade? Thompson was a little angry, and all the anger he had held back in the day emerged again.
"I... I don't know. I've sent someone to look into it. But it's his first time to trade in the black market, so few people know his background. "
The man in black stood straight and was no longer as timid and overcautious as before.
"What a bastard!" Thompson smashed the tea cup to pieces. The man in black kept a straight face and didn't any anything about it.
The fact was that the boss could do whatever he liked, and the subordinate like him could not stop his boss no matter what happened.
"All right. Go and get me Vernon. I want to see him." Thompson reached out to rub his temple, and the emerald ring on his finger was slightly shining.
But Thompson was in no mood to appreciate the ring in his hand. He was very irritable now like a gunpowder can be ignited at any time.
"Got it." The man in black walked out quickly. Years of experience told him that nothing would be serious even if the boss was angry.
Thompson was nice to him, by the way. Thompson always know how to win over people's heart, so the men in black had always been loyal to him.
