Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1005
“Plus…? Also, hold on, young man. Are you being serious here?” replied the old man, his eyes
widened in shock.
Gerald simply shook his head before asking the old man for his bank ount number with a smile on
his face. After a brief call, the old man was left utterly shocked five minutester when he saw that
seven hundred and seventy thousand dors truly had been banked into his ount.
“T-thank you, young man!” said the old man as he smiled broadly. His joy was no surprise. After all, he
would never have dreamed that he would actually be able to sell that iron que for such a high
amount.
Gerald himself had bought the item since though the que didn’t look like anything special, there was
simply something extraordinary about it. It gave Gerald a simr feeling to when he had firstid his
eyes upon the picture of the sun half a year ago.
It may have only been a gut feeling, but Gerald chose to believe it.
At that moment, a group of people—consisting of both foreigners and locals who were dressed in
luxurious attire—began walking toward Gerald and the old man.
When they were in front of the duo, another old man wearing traditional clothes smiled as he said, “I
wonder if you’ll allow me to have a look at that iron que in your hand, mister…”
Seeing this, the old man who had sold the iron que immediately began fearing that his money would
be taken away from him. As a result, he quickly left the scene, not daring to linger for any longer.
Gerald, on the other hand, simply handed the iron que over to the other old man as he said, “Sure.”
Gently taking it from Gerald, the old man in traditional garb held the iron que in his hands before
slowly caressing its surface. It didn’t take long for his expression to suddenly change drastically.

“What is it, Mr. Snyder?” asked one of the foreigners who appeared to be the leader of the group.
“Well, for one, this iron que certainly isn’t an ordinary object! I’ll be frank and say that there’s actually
a holy spirit surrounding it!” replied Mr. Snyder as his hands quivered slightly.
The moment the foreigner heard that, his mood was instantly lifted as he turned to look at Gerald
before saying, “How much did you pay for this? I’ll pay fifty times that price for this iron que!”
Hearing that, Gerald turned to look at Mr. Snyder. So it turned out that this old man was equally as
insightful as he was.
Regardless, even if the foreigner had upped the price to five thousand times more than what he had
initially paid, Gerald wasn’t letting go of the que.
“I appreciate the offer, but I’m not selling it,” replied Gerald as he took the iron que back from Mr.
Snyder.
Not hearing the response he wanted, the foreigner frowned before turning to look at a youth who was
standing by his side. The youth himself looked to be around twenty-six and wore quite luxurious
clothes, just like the rest of the people within the foreigner’s group.
Sensing his cue, the youth shook his head and smiled before saying, “If you aren’t aware, I go by the
name of Zolton Lovewell, and I’m the main organizer of today’s event, mister. I’m also the young
master of the Lovewell family, so I truly suggest that you just sell it. Think about how you’ll be able to
lead afortable life without worries once you get the money!”
As Gerald looked at Zolton’s subtle smile, he simply replied, “Again, I appreciate the offer, but I’m not
selling it.”
With that, Gerald nodded slightly at the group before attempting to leave with the iron que.
Before he could leave, however, an old man with white hair—who had also been standing close to
Zolton this entire time—stepped in front of Gerald, preventing him from leaving.
Looking at him, Gerald could see that the rather extraordinarily imposing man’s irises looked somewhat
triangr. Squinting his eyes slightly, Gerald realized that the white-haired man had eyes simr to
those of a poisonous snake.
It was evident to Gerald at that point that the man blocking his way truly had inner strength. So it
seemed that the long history that the Lovewells had established within the Logan Province had allowed
them to build up a truly extraordinary background.
“What could this possibly mean, Mr. Lovewell?” asked Gerald as he turned around to look at Zolton.
In response, however, Zolton simply turned to look away as the old, white-haired man grabbed Gerald’s
wrist firmly.
As he tightened his grip, he coldly said, “As mentioned before, he was willing to up the price by fifty
times of what you paid. How could you still be dissatisfied with that, mister?”
Even before the old man’s sentence had ended, he was already surging a secret strength toward
Gerald’s body!
‘You’re truly overestimating your capabilities!’ Gerald thought to himself with a sneer before waving his
hand in an indifferent manner. Just by making that simple gesture, Gerald was able to break off the old
man’s inner strength!
Realizing what had just happened, the old man stared at Gerald in panic as he staggered a few steps
backward.
“I told you, I’m not selling it. Please don’t continue pestering me,” said Gerald as he walked off.
“…Are you truly sure that the que is a treasure, Mr. Snyder? I couldn’t sense anything from it!” said
the foreigner with a frown as he watched Gerald walk off.
Taking out apass, Mr, Snyder then replied, “Thepass was the one that led us here, so I’m
positive that the iron que is what it was pointing at. In fact, thepass is now pointing in the
direction where the young man had gone! There’s no question about it!”
“I see. If you’re that sure, Mr. Snyder, then we definitely have to get our hands on that que no matter
what!” said Zolton as he rested his hands against his back.
It was then when he finally realized that the white-haired man had a bbergasted expression on his
face.
