Chapter 2894


    Philip did not expect the starstone to react all of a sudden. He picked up the small ck stone without a


    change in his expression and looked at it. He found nothing special about it. It was just an ordinary


    stone.

    At this time, the street vendor, who was in his 20s, counted the money in his hands from the transaction


    he just made and said, “Have you taken a fancy to this stone? It’s quite ordinary. It’s yours for 5,000.”


    ‘5,000? For a small stone like this?’


    “Is this stone so expensive?” Philip pretended to ask in surprise.


    The street vendor looked at Philip and said, “Buddy, you look unfamiliar. Are you new here?”


    Philip did not deny it.


    The other party immediately smiled and said, “This thing is from Mystic Mine Three. In fact, everything


    here is, so the prices are definitely not cheap. Moreover, to tell you the truth, this stone has been here


    for three months but no one wants it. Since you’re the first person who has taken a fancy to it, I’m


    willing to make a loss and will let you have it for 3,000.”


    Philip saw through the smiling face of the street vendor at a nce. He then said, “1,500…”


    “No way! That’s a huge loss for me!” The vendor immediately snatched the stone back from Philip’s


    hand.


    Philip was unconcerned. He got up and pretended to leave.


    Seeing that, the vendor got anxious and said, “Well, seeing that this is your first time, let me do you a


    favor. 2,000! That’s the lowest price I can give!”


    Philip did not hesitate and agreed with 2,000. He turned around, paid the money, took the stone, and


    left.


    As soon as Philip left, the owner of the stall next door smiled at the vendor and said, “Not bad, buddy.


    You actually sold a worthless rock for 2,000. You certainly know how to run a business.”


    The street vendor wiped his nose and said with a smile, “It’s easy to trick rich fools like this.”


    After Philip left the booth, he naturally heard the conversation between the two. A faint smile appeared


    on the corner of his mouth.


    ‘2,000 for a worthless rock?’


    That was not certain.


    After that, Philip did not continue to wander around but found a ce to take a break. He took out the


    stone with irregr contours. He nced at it carefully, wondering why the starstone in his pocket was


    reacting to it.


    He then took out the starstone, which felt a little hot to the touch and also glowed with a very faint


    golden luster at this moment. The pattern on the surface also became clearer. As Philip observed the


    starstone and the ck stone, a voice suddenly rang from behind him, “Not bad. You actually found a


    ckstone.”


    Hearing that, Philip quickly kept the starstone before he turned to the person who spoke behind him.


    It was a middle-aged man with a schrly look, a handsome face, and bright eyes. He was dressed in


    a blue suit and held a book in his hand. Two bodyguards in ck suits stood behind him. This middle-


    aged man looked very elegant and refined at first nce.


    Philip smiled and said, “Sir, do you know this stone?”


    The middle-aged man closed the book, smiled faintly, and said, “Don’t call me sir. My name is us


    Motley.”


    Philip also smiled and said, “I, Philip rke.”
