Chapter 9-10 Summary

After two weeks, Frank and Ed have several pieces of jewerly ready to show to shops. It is decided that Ed will take a batch to American Artifacts Handcrafts first. Ed is nervous, but Frank cannot go because Childan is sure to recognize him. Frank rides to the shop with Ed, going over everything Ed should say. Ed walks into the shop and begins to lay out the jewelry. At first Childan is not interested, but then thinks he might take a few things on consignment. Ed and Frank did not want to do consignment, but Ed feels put on the spot and agrees to it. Childan takes one of the pieces over to Paul, hoping it will impress his young wife, Betty, for whom Childan has intimate desires.
