Yes, yes, yes, of course I understand," said Conway. He was beginning to get angry. I won't build shops and hotels there, and you will give me everything I want. Thank you very much for your help. Now, please, get out. I'm a busy man.' Goodbye,' said Kee. Thank you for talking to me. But don't forget, Mr Conway, you must not do these things. If you do, you'll be sorry.' Yes, yes, yes, I understand. Now go!' said Conway. Kee turned and went to the door. For a moment, as the old man was walking out of the door, Conway remembered the face in the book on the plane. Suddenly he felt cold and afraid. When Kee left the room, Conway picked up the
telephone. He talked to Marie. He was very, very angry. Marie!' he shouted. "Why did you send that man to my office? He's mad. Coming in here talking about voodoo! Telling me he's going to give me a lot of money! I don't want to see him again. Do you understand? If you make a mistake like that again, you'll lose your job. "I'm very sorry,' said Marie. Good. Now, I want to talk to Pierre and Henri. Get them on the telephone for me.' He put down the telephone and sat back in his chair. That man Kee is mad, he thought. Then he started to laugh. He thinks he can give me everything I want!' he thought. An old man from a village! Ha, ha, ha!
The telephone rang again. Conway picked it up. Pierre, Henri, listen," he said. A few minutes ago an old man came to my office. He doesn't want any shops or houses in the graveyard. It's possible he'll try to stop us. I don't know what he can do, but perhaps he'll go to the police. Perhaps he has important friends. So you must start building the shops and the hotel today. Take away all the stones Cut down all the trees. You must work fast, do you understand?' Conway put down the telephone and thought, The old man will be angry, but he isn't important. I'll finish building my town and then I'll be a rich man.
