Chapter 39: Selling Some Gold and Buying a Villa
With so much gold, the few salesmen could not make the decision.
“Sir, you want to sell me too much gold. We need to ask the manager!”
“I hope it’s faster!” Ralph said.
The salesmen quickly called the manager. The manager of the Thousand Gold Restaurant was a woman in her thirties. She looked ordinary and wore a black suit. She looked capable.
“Sir, are you selling this gold?” The store manager asked with an excited expression.
With such a large amount of gold, if the deal was successful, how much would her sales volume be!
“Sell it, but don’t fool me, or I’ll leave immediately!” Ralph said in a deep voice.
“Don’t worry, our Thousand Gold Restaurant’s letter camp is famous across the globe. We definitely won’t cheat our customers!” The store manager guaranteed.
“Okay, check it and give me a price. If it’s suitable, I’ll sell it!” The store manager smiled.
The purchase price of gold mainly depended on the purity and the price of the day. Ralph was lucky. Today’s gold price was not lower than 53 USD per gram.
On that day, the purchase price was definitely not that high. It was only about half of the price, not more than 80%.
If one bought gold jewelry from Thousand Gold Restaurant and sold it at Thousand Gold Restaurant, the price would be very high. However, people like Ralph were destined not to be too high.
Weighing it, 100 kg!
Purity, 89%!
According to calculations, the store manager gave Ralph a price of 5.3 million USD!
“Sir, 5.3 million is the highest price we have quoted! If you have any proof that these gold were obtained from a certain channel, the price will be higher.” The store manager said.

“No proof!”
Ralph knew the characteristics of doing business. It was impossible to quote the price to the limit all of a sudden. If he continued, it would not be a problem to raise the price by a few hundred thousand.
But was he short of money?
No, he was not short of money!
Not to mention other things, just the income from the two software was very exaggerated. There was no need to worry about using it at all.
This time, he had just gotten a batch of gold for free. He was going to deal with it and use this money to buy a villa to live in. That was all.
Therefore, he did not care how much gold he could sell.
“Okay, let’s do 5.3 million USD!” Ralph agreed.
Signing the transaction contract, stamping, signing.
A series of procedures were quickly completed. Ralph’s card had an additional 5.3 million and he left the Thousand Gold Restaurant.
After he left…
A salesgirl said in a low voice, “Manager, I keep feeling that this person is somewhat familiar. I seem to have seen him somewhere before, and it’s only recently!”
“Could it be a celebrity?” The manager laughed.
“Ralph, Ralph, there doesn’t seem to be a celebrity whose name is Ralph!” The manager shook his head.
Suddenly, the manager’s expression changed. He took out his phone and searched on Google. He finally knew who Ralph was.
“He is the founder of the Central Company and the developer of the most popular RA system recently!”
When the store manager said this, everyone gasped.
“Aiya, if I had known earlier, I would have asked for an autograph!”
A salesgirl said regretfully.
Ralph and Alice were sitting in the President’s office, discussing something.
“Alice, I’m preparing to buy a villa. What do you have in mind?”

Ralph asked.
“You’re going to buy a villa?”
Alice was surprised.
“Yes, but I won’t use the funds in the company’s account. I have private money to buy a villa, but I haven’t decided which villa to buy!”
Ralph stroked his chin and pondered.
Alice thought carefully and said, “There’s a good villa area nearby called Fantasy Manor. The environment is very good, the villa is very large, and it has an independent gym, a swimming pool, and a private garden…
“Each villa is about eight to nine million!
“And you know the developer of this villa area, Ralph,” Alice added another sentence.
“I know him too? Yes.” Ralph was curious.
“Xuanhua Company!” Alice said, “There are many companies around us, and the company more or less involves real estate. Besides making mobile phones, Xuanhua company is also preparing to do real estate development for the villa. The villa area that you provided was built by Xuanhua Company.”
“Then let’s go to the Fantasy Manor!” Ralph decided.
“I’ll drive you. You’re the boss now, so you can’t go alone!” Alice said quickly.
Ralph had used the company’s funds to buy her car, which was especially for Alice. There was also a female driver, but sometimes Alice drove it by herself.
After all, Alice was the general manager, and many businesses needed her to handle it. She couldn’t go anywhere without a car.
On the other hand, Ralph, since he could be digitized, could go anywhere he wanted quickly. He did not need a car at all.
So far, he had not bought a car for himself.
“Alice, the great beauty, will personally drive me. Of course, I will be happy!” Ralph agreed immediately.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
