All the buyers are in collusion.The buyer calls in the other buyers as accomplices.
"Do not blame me," he said quickly. "I am only an appraiser. Ask the others. Go to their offices and show your pearl- or better, let them come here, so that you can see there is no collusion. Boy," he called. And when his servant looked through the rear door, "Boy, go to such a one, and such another one and such a third one. Ask them to step in here and do not tell them why. Just say that I will be pleased to see them."
