So the last part it says when he went came he came to visit him. He went with the he chased the bocker told that the ber ran into the marker. He chased it all the way inside. He got inside the militian picked up his head and smiled and he realized that that's the place. So he kept the secret for 37 years. Didn't tell anybody. Imagine if he told someone that this is the place they would never sell it. They were going for themselves. So he kept the biggest secret and when the time came this week's para he he purchased it he made sure that everybody in town saw the deal so they didn't can deny it the best the best currency crypto maybe but he made sure that everybody knows that this was a done deal and attempts to camp back out of it. Then we have the mis with the with the Abra sent his servant very loyal servant to find for for his song. I once heard from Silverberg and he said it's very interesting we see on the way there the same day he had there he left that same day and they arrived immediately the same day on the way back in the evening we have the ready what took so from whom but he says that sometimes a person and a certain thing he gets to a point nothing is happening so he gives up one more and when that one happened immediately so Mr. Know that sometimes we d and it doesn't happen.
