Hull walked a kilometer or two before he found a shop with brooches in the window. The prices were staggering. After looking at the sign, he realized that the shop was not dealing in jewelry, but antiques and works of art.
Trading jewelry as antiques and works of art may be a helpless choice for Raymond merchants, because taxes on antiques and works of art are very low in Raymond.
Because Jarok’s original plan had included the idea of ??opening an antique and art shop, Hull had some understanding of this.
The Holy See has always been immersed in its past prosperity, and has always believed that the most precious works of art and collections from all over the world should be gathered here with the Holy See as the center.
But the reality is just the opposite. The Holy See does not have many entrepreneurs and big businessmen in other countries. In the Holy See, the number of wealthy people is much smaller.

Hel felt slightly unhappy, he knew what was going on. The way he and Shirley were dressed at the moment definitely didn’t look like a rich man. This guy looked a bit contemptuous of others.
But this is not a problem, because he knows that everywhere there will be rich people who dress simply but have amazing wealth.
And he also knew that there was a way to punish these snobs. This method was taught to him by Lida’s father. Although the method was a bit rogue, it was very effective.
I saw him casually taking out the largest diamond ring from the counter. The diamond on the ring was almost one carat. The ring was worth about one thousand french dollars, making it the most expensive piece of jewelry here.
Hull saw the clerk staring closely at his hand holding the ring, as if he was staring at a thi
