"With the greatest speed, find Lin Qi. I must swallow this batch of goods whole!" Karhan ground his teeth and growled in a low voice. "Those dead ghosts from the Undead Continent vanished without a trace, and the Hyena Merchant Association's profits have shrunk by thirty percent recently! Lin Qi has gotten hold of so much fine merchandise this time—countless people must have their eyes on him. I have to swallow this batch whole. No one gets to compete with me!"
After blinking and pondering for a while, Karhan pulled a golden token from his sleeve and tossed it to the guard beside him. "Go. Gather everyone I can use! I'm afraid someone may try to stab me in the back this time! Who knows? In any case, if anyone dares compete with me for this deal, I'll definitely kill him! So someone will surely want to kill me too. We have to keep a hand in reserve!"
As though a fit of madness had suddenly seized him, Karhan grabbed the guard by the throat and snarled through clenched teeth, "At the fastest speed, gather every trustworthy hand we have! Mm, someone is definitely planning to kill me. Why wouldn't they, when I'm always wanting to kill them? The Hyena Merchant Association truly is a dangerous place! Hurry up and gather everyone trustworthy who can protect me."
He forcefully shoved the guard away, then looked toward the prisoner camp with a troubled expression.
A deal with such enormous profits absolutely could not go wrong. Therefore, he had to find Lin Qi as quickly as possible, then find a way to settle this exclusive transaction. Karhan's face grew increasingly gloomy. Perhaps he ought to spend some money to hire a group of elite Dragon Mountain Empire soldiers to protect him?
