Even as Frank shook his head, he soon had a better idea and told Bravo, "How about this? Youprobably won't have any use for this land right after reclaiming it from the Salazars. Why not rentout the land and the factory along with the machines to me? I'll pay you ten percent more thanwhat the Salazars paid you before.”

"What?!" Bravo gaped and shook his head firmly. "No, absolutely not!"

Frank frowned in turn. "What about twenty percent?"

"No, you misunderstand, Mr. Lawrence." Bravo quickly understood that Frank had the wrong ideawhen he raised his price. We'd never charge you the price we charged the Salazars—it'd be goingagainst our conscience.”

He then added, "So, how about this? We'll only charge you the rent for using our land. The factoryand the machinery didn't come from our money anyway, so you can have it on the house. Don'tturn us down now, Mr. Lawrence, or you'd be disrespecting myself and Mr. Stinson.”

"Bocek?" Donald was delighted that Sage Lake Sect made contact.

Bocek came days ago and took the Goldeater Cane, but they had not heard from him since. Donaldcertainly had reason to believe Sage Lake Sect abandoned them.

"Show them in!" Donald cried even as he scrambled to get off the floor.

However, just as he seated himself, he was left staring as Bocek limped inside, needing hisdaughter's mutual assistance to walk.

Donald's pupils widened right then. "What's this?"

Bocek said he would be using the Goldeater Cane as bait to set a trap to kill Frank.

Why had he and his daughter returned, looking beaten up?!

"Ahem..."

Bocek hacked violently even as he took his hand off Quinn's shoulder, struggling to straightenhimself as he turned to Donald. "Mr. Salazar, my daughter needs a favor—please transport us backto Sage Lake Sect."
