Leonard Ethan had originally thought that one or two people might drive over to pick up the gold necklaces and sign a series of related documents with him, but in fact, the other party obviously valued the situation more than he had imagined.
As Leonard was about to head back to his car for afternoon tea, after buying some desserts and a cup of hot tea from a mobile restaurant more than a hundred meters away, he saw a minibus and a small truck similar to those used by moving companies approach from the nearby highway, stopping next to his car.
After the vehicles came to a stop, more than a dozen people got out of them.
An elderly man, dressed in work clothes and wearing glasses, walked to Leonard's car, then raised his hand to shield his eyes from the sun and peered into the driver's cab through the window glass.
"Sir, can I help you with anything?" Leonard asked the elder, holding a small paper bag.
