I'm an antique shop owner, so it's reasonable for me to know some magic

Chapter 242: The young man got off the taxi in the wilderness. The taxi driver said: Young people are very brave.
An island somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, a luxurious private villa.
A man in his thirties was lazily lying on a chair sunbathing, and from time to time he looked through his sunglasses at the young women playing and frolicking in the swimming pool.
They look no more than teenagers, which is the beautiful time of youth.
Normally, you should discuss gossip about the campus beauties and campus hunks with your best friends at school, or which social party to attend in the evening.
But at this moment, they are splashing water and playing here.
The ripples on the water surface under the sunlight rolled over their young and beautiful bodies. Their skin, tanned by the sun, was wheat-colored and so smooth that even water droplets could not stick to it.
The man watched the scene with satisfaction, whistling from time to time.
Just as he was enjoying the wonderful tropical atmosphere, his cell phone under the parasol rang.
Hearing the noise, the man looked quite impatient, but he still got up from the recliner and answered the phone.
"I remember I said, don't bother me these two days."
His voice was dark and a little irritated.
"You'd better give me a satisfactory reason in the next few seconds."
"...Mr. Hunter, the FBI has given us feedback on the matter you are investigating."
"What did they say?"
"The investigation team over there said that the evidence at the scene showed that it was just a simple bizarre murder case and had nothing to do with the person you specified..."
“Fuck you!!”
The man's originally impatient expression suddenly turned ferocious.
"Hasn't what I said been clear enough? Those idiots in the FBI don't even want to provoke the other side!"
"Did the Mayfair family say anything?"
"This……"
"Don't waste your damn time! Speak now!"
"The Mayfair family has made it clear that they want to stand on that person's side. Ms. Lawrence, let me tell you that the Senate is not a one-man show for the old man..."
Before the person on the other end of the phone could finish speaking, the phone was hung up by the angry man.
The noisy girls in the swimming pool suddenly fell silent, and the air seemed to be filled with oppression due to the man's anger.
"The wealthy family in New Orleans is so courageous that they dare to go against me..."
"I swear I will make you pay the price!"
The man gritted his teeth, as if he was tearing something apart, and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
The daughter of the Armitage family had the most frequent contact with the antique shop owner and must have regarded him as a target.
But the owner of the antique shop was safe and sound. His entire family was wiped out overnight, and even a fool would know that it was all due to that man.
Is it because they can’t find any evidence? It’s simply because the FBI is unwilling to investigate further.
"Extraordinary... heh..."
Chaofan is also a human being after all. The real reason why the FBI is unwilling to get involved is that the Mayfair family is interfering!
Each brain replacement surgery can bring in a profit of one million dollars, and so far it has earned him nearly 30 million gold coins.
There are many old men who want to get young bodies, and the supply of bodies is countless. As long as the Armitage family is there, there will be a steady stream of money transferred to the ghost account he opened.
But now, all that is gone.
That damn antique shop owner not only killed the hen that laid his golden eggs endlessly.
It damaged his credibility even more.
If a protector is unable to perform his duties as a protector and has lost his credibility, will anyone still engage in power-for-money transactions with him?
"I swear I'll make you pay."
Now, the only way to redeem everything is to take revenge severely and make him suffer a fate worse than death.
But at this moment, the phone rang again. "What the hell is going on again?!"
The man is now very angry and doesn't even bother to check the caller ID, ready to curse the other party.
But a rather majestic voice came to my ears.
“Hunter.”
After hearing the familiar voice, the violent expression of the man named Hunter froze and his tone calmed down a little.
"Brother, what's the matter with you calling me now?"
"I heard recently that something happened to you, something about that family, let's put it aside for now."
"But……"
"If the noise is too loud, it will attract the wrong people. You should know what kind of business it is."
Before Hunter could finish, the man on the other end of the phone raised his volume, drowning out his voice, with a serious tone that did not allow for any discussion.
"The quadrennial election is about to begin. You'd better behave yourself at this time. Do you understand?"
"……I see."
Hunter took a deep breath and gave his answer.
At this moment, the man on the other end of the phone suddenly sighed.
"I know you feel uncomfortable... I promise you, after the election, you can do whatever you want."
After saying that, the man hung up the phone.
However, his consolation seemed to have no effect.
The moment Hunter heard the call was hung up, he suddenly smashed his phone to pieces.
Filled with anger and with nowhere to vent, the man looked at the girl in the swimming pool not far away with red eyes.
At this moment, they suddenly felt that the sunshine on this southern island had lost all its warmth.

Although Fox is called a town, it is actually quite large.
The economy here is mainly supported by forestry, but non-renewable resources are non-renewable resources after all.
There were not many trees that could be cut down, and coupled with environmental bans, the economy here quickly declined.
However, as luck would have it, a film crew was attracted by the unique climatic conditions here and chose it as the main filming location.
The film's huge success brought a second spring to this declining place.
Many tourists come here to take photos and check in, and tourism has become a new pillar industry.
In order to attract more tourists, tourist vouchers were distributed during different activities.
It includes but is not limited to hunting experience in the forest, food and accommodation, dock cruises, and even a hospital in the town.
It would be more appropriate to call it a private clinic rather than a hospital.
After a five-hour flight to Seattle, I took a bus to the town.
After all, it is not the China of the past where high-speed railways extended in all directions. Areas that are smoggy, sparsely populated, and have beautiful scenery always have inconvenient transportation.
"Are you sure you want to get off here?"
The taxi driver was a little confused and turned to look at the black-haired young man in the back seat.
Seeing that the latter had a handsome face, an elegant and gentle temperament, and did not look very strong, he hesitated for a moment and began to give advice.
"It's still about a hundred kilometers from here to the town ahead, and there's only one motel about seventy kilometers along the way."
"There might be brown bears on the mountain roads at night, which is very dangerous."
"I'm not lying to you. I just want to tell you that it's not worth risking your life to save that little bit of money."
