"No."
The old man shook his head gravely: "I searched for Carl Jacob Company, but there is no record of such a company. The other party possesses numerous valuable Three-Star Items, but they want to trade them with us for One-Star Items."
"That gives them only one possible identity—"
"This man is, a member of the Star System Federation's rebel army!"
"Only the rebel army needs large quantities of One-Star Items because they can't purchase them through normal channels."
"Even the most useless One-Star Item is useful to them."
"For this reason, they are even willing to offer Three-Star Items as a trade."
"And that man from just now, he's a part of the rebel army!"
"..."
Jonas Grey remained expressionless, silent for a moment, before he muttered: "Father, isn't there a possibility that you neither understand business investment nor value investment?"
"That man doesn't seem like a rebel."
