Three days just passed. For three days, Adam cleaned his house. Some of the holes in his house, for a while he closed with a board as it were. The previous floor was very dirty, and Adam cleaned it.
Although this house is not fully habitable, but this house looks more comfortable to live in than before. To make this house really worth calling a house, Adam needed a lot of money to pay a handyman.
However, there was no money in his account. Today, Adam wants to sell the gold he has melted. Before leaving, Adam changed his appearance so that it was not easily recognized.
The man used a soft lens to slightly change the color of his eyes. Not only that, she also uses a wig to make her haircut different. Her face also she made up with cheap makeup that she bought in the market.
If not for changing his appearance, then Adam would have sold all the gold he had, after he finished melting it. Adam could not do this.
In the future, Adam would quite often sell the gold he had obtained from the Guerio Continent. If Adam used his original appearance, it would attract dangers that the man did not want. Maybe there will be robbers who pay attention to Adam's movements.
If they knew his true appearance, it would be very easy for them to find out about Adam's abode. Adam knew excessive wealth could attract danger. So, she chose to wear makeup before selling her gold. At least, this will reduce the risk of him attracting dangers that he does not want.
In addition to makeup, Adam also traveled two hours by bus to go to another city. This man did to minimize the risk that would arise. With him selling this gold outside the city, it was unlikely that anyone would know him there.
"Do you want to sell gold? Sell it in our store. The price must be higher than other stores" said one fat-haired man after seeing Adam approaching.
The area that Adam came to was the jewelry craftsman area. Quite a lot of scalpers offer to buy gold here. Every foreigner who comes, they will surely come and be offered to sell gold to them.
"What's the price of gold in your store, sir?" adam asked in a slightly raised voice.
"One million hundred every gram. This is the best price you can get" the man replied.
"Basic touts. You think I'd be that stupid to believe in the price you're offering" Adam grumbled inwardly.
If Adam hadn't listened to two people talking at the gold-smelting shop, he might have believed this man's words. The price that this man offers is not too far with the price on the internet. People who do not know the exact price will immediately accept this offer, because they assume this is the real price.
However, Adam was not willing to let this scalper earn a profit of one hundred thousand per gram if he sold gold here. The amount of gold that Adam would sell was quite a lot. Of the one hundred and nine gold coins of Kyra that he had, Adam melted a hundred coins. That alone earned him a hundred and sixty grams of gold.
If Adam sold it for one million and two hundred, he could get one hundred and ninety-two million. However, if he sold it to this man for one million one hundred, then the money Adam earned was only one hundred and seventy million. He will suffer a loss of sixteen million rupiah.
Adam certainly did not want to suffer that much loss. Sixteen million dollars he could buy at least three watches that are the same as the watches he sells. That he could double to six hundred million more if he sold gold from the sale of the watch.
"sorry. I can't sell it for that price. I'm going to find another seller" said Adam who immediately walked away from the man.
"Hey, wait a minute!" exclaim that man.
"Don't go away like that. We can still discuss everything" the man continued, holding Adam's shoulders. Inevitably, Adam had to stop his footsteps. This man's hand was quite strong when it gripped Adam's shoulder.
He did not expect that this man would withstand it with such great force. If he really wanted to discuss everything with Adam, he should have asked Adam to speak well, not to use physical as he is now.
"I can discuss everything. What about a million one hundred ten. I've raised it for you" said the man, who now had a smile on his face.
"Don't equate me with someone new who doesn't know anything. I already know the price of gold right now. So, don't try to trick me by offering such a low price. Not everyone is as stupid as you think" Adam said seriously.
The expression of this man was quite irritating. He looked at Adam with a proud look. He seemed to say that Adam needed to be grateful for raising the price of gold to one million one hundred and ten thousand rupiah.
The smile on the man's face instantly disappeared after hearing Adam's words. He thought Adam was a man who didn't know much about the price of gold. His unfamiliar face made him think that Adam was a good target to be tricked into. But Adam was hard to fool.
"Alright, alright. I won't try lying again. One million one hundred ninety. I will not increase the price anymore. It was the highest price I could offer" said the man, who sounded annoyed.
Adam was silent for a moment. This is far from what Adam expected. Ten thousand lower than the price of gold that Adam knew. However, this is not too bad either. Adam is the new guy here. It would be quite difficult for him to find a person who would actually buy his gold for one million and two hundred.
"I can't go up in price anymore. You know, I still need to make a profit in this transaction right? If you don't want it, find another one. I'm not sure anyone would buy on me" said the man, after hearing Adam was silent for a long time.
"Hey, Mamat, are you trying to cheat on people again? Gold prices are now rising again. You are still trying to buy people's gold at an unnatural price. Don't make the price of gold here go down because of what you said."
A man's voice was heard not far from where Adam was standing. The man was wearing a sleeveless shirt, with sweat seen drenching his forehead.
"Young man, if you want to sell gold, don't use her kayak touts. He's ruined the market price. If you want to sell gold, just come to the gold craftsman. Although the price is not much more expensive than the scalpers, you will never be fooled if selling gold in craftsmen," explained the man.
"Damn. Mr. Gani, again you want to take care of my customers. Look out, if you can't find someone who can sell you their gold, don't let us brokers make gold. I will talk this to my other friends" said Mamat who immediately left without waiting for a response from the old man.
"Don't mind he's a young man. Calo like he's like that. He likes to snack, but he won't be able to do anything."
"So, you want to sell gold. Sell it to me, I'll price it at the market price. One million two hundred thousand. How's it? You want to sell it to me? I'll buy as much gold as you have" said the man.
"A lot of anything? Don't you have any restrictions, sir?" adam asked to be sure.
The amount of gold he had was not small. If this old man did not have enough money he could not buy the gold that Adam had. Now, Adam only realized that he made a big mistake by melting all his gold into one big lump.
If this were the case, Adam would not be able to sell his gold to some people. He needed to find a buyer who could afford to buy all his gold.
"Not as much as anything. I can buy your gold if it's still under five hundred grams. If it's more than that, I don't have any money to spend on it."
"If so, buy all my gold."
