Evan said, "Originally, this was just a small industry networking event, but I got wind of the news that Mr. Crawford is confirmed to attend. This has made many other company’s bosses take notice and express their intention to join as well.
"So, the number of participants in this event is definitely going to be higher than other large-scale industry events."
Luke nodded. He was already aware of this.
"There’ll be a lot of people attending this event, Mr. Turner. I need you to help me with something," said Luke.
Evan knew there must be another reason why Luke suddenly decided to attend this event. Perhaps he had something else that needed to be done.
However, as an employee, he was not allowed to pry into the boss' privacy. "Mr. Crawford, please go ahead.”
"I need you to gather information about every herbalist and pharmaceutical vendor at the conference. Find out what herbs they have on their sales lists," said Luke.
Evan thought Luke would assign him a challenging task, but he did not expect it to be this...
Typically, when herbal merchants and farmers participated in such industry networking events, they would have a detailed list of the medicinal herbs they were offering for sale.
As soon as someone approached their booth, they would hand out these lists to everyone. They aimed to attract more business opportunities.
Therefore, the task Luke gave him was not difficult.
"Yes, sir." Evan immediately agreed. He could not refuse it anyway since it was a task assigned by the boss.
Luke saw him agree readily and reminded him, "I'm not just interested in the herbs openly sold by these merchants but also those they keep hidden. If you can, find out about those too."
Only now did Evan realize that Luke's task was not as simple as he thought.
To know what treasures the merchants had, he would need to converse with them.
There would be many booths at the industry networking event, teeming with people inside and out.
He would have to engage in conversations, exchange business cards, and probe them for information.
Evan suddenly felt the pressure, but pressure brought motivation. This was the first task assigned by Luke, and he attached great importance to its outcome. He had to do it well.
"Mr. Crawford, rest assured. Although I don't know what herbs you're interested in, I'll handle it well," promised Evan.
If he could not handle such a small task well, there was no point in competing for the inheritance rights with the other heirs of the Turner family.
Everything in the Turner family must belong to him and no one else...
Evan secretly swore to himself.
As Evan accepted the task, Luke knew it was not something he could do alone. Hence, he added, "Don't worry, I'll send someone to help. You’ll only have to follow their lead and gather information from the corresponding merchants."
"Yes, sir." Evan let out a sigh of relief when he heard that someone would assist him.
Luca listened to their conversation without saying a word.
She knew Luke had a different purpose in assigning this task to Evan.
She had mentioned Shanks before she took her nap.
Shanks had left the Island of Despair now. Even though they did not know if he was in X City or A City, there must be a reason why Abel was appearing at this networking event.
They did not know why Abel would show up here, but at least they had a direction to follow now. No matter how they looked at it, it was not a waste of effort.
Luke talked with Evan again.
Evan studied abroad, so they had some common topics. Luke also discussed matters about the Turner family with Evan.
Evan expressed his intentions.
