Chapter 1252 Negotiation

Zhu Caicai acted as translator, and Li Mo negotiated with the boss for 280,000 rubles.

Everyone gets what they need and everyone is happy.

While eating steak, Li Mo said, "Miss Anna, do you have any research on porcelain and jade?"

"I've heard of it all, but haven't done much research on it."

"That piece of porcelain is a small doucai jar fired from a folk kiln in the mid-Ming Dynasty. Although it is not an official kiln, it still has a certain value, about two million rubles. The jadeite rough stone was newly mined in Myanmar. You can also cut out waxy jadeite. If you sell all the jadeite to a jewelry company, you can sell it for almost two million rubles." Li Mo pointed with a fork, "If Miss Anna doesn't dislike it, treat these two as... A gift for you.”

Anna looked at the raw jadeite and packaged porcelain on the ground. So he bought it for 280,000 rubles, and it could be sold for 4 million rubles. No wonder people in the antique business are very rich. .

By the way, these two things are nothing. In his hand, he also has the first Fabella egg made by Emperor Alexander III of Russia. That one is valuable. The price had reached 2 billion rubles, but Li Mo was not interested in discussing it. Moreover, they wanted to continue to increase the price, but Li Mo refused.

"Thank you Mr. Li, but I can't accept it."

Li Mo smiled and did not go further on this topic. If she really accepted it, she might be investigated by her superiors in the next moment.

After everyone had eaten, the convoy turned around and continued driving on the highway. This time Anna and Li Mo were in the same car, and Cai Cai sat next to Li Mo and felt sleepy.

"Miss Anna, how long does it take for us to reach our destination?"

Anna, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the navigation and said: "There are about three hours left, Mr. Li, how are you going to work when you get to the destination?"

"have no idea."

Li Mo replied simply.

Seeing Anna's confused look, Li Mo continued: "You have been searching for so long and haven't found any useful clues. You just roughly inferred a direction based on some historical records. How do you think I should carry out my work?"

An awkward yet polite smile appeared on Anna's face. She also knew that this treasure hunt was difficult, but that was only for ordinary people. But the Li Mo in front of him is different from ordinary people. He found the treasure of the Knights Templar in Faguo, and even the holy relics of Jesus were also found.

He also found the gold treasure trove of Yamashita Fengwen in the Philippines. The treasure alone contains hundreds of tons of gold, and the number of various antiques and cultural relics is also calculated in units of tens of thousands. They also received secret information that Li Mo actually found more than one treasure in the Philippines. To be precise, he only had one gold treasure hidden by Yamashita Fengwen disclosed by the Philippine officials.

The others have been brought back to China without him noticing. Recently, they started construction of a huge project in the Magic City of China, the Southeast Asian Culture and Art Museum Campus, which is the largest in the world.

Looking at the European Art Palace Museum in Yandu, the 14th Century Armor Museum, etc., it shows that he also used a lot of tricks in Europe. Until now, Europe has blacklisted him, which shows that this person's ability is really beyond ordinary people's thinking.

Regarding Napoleon's treasure, she still had great expectations for Li Mo.

When Li Mo said she didn't know, she didn't know how to answer the question.

"Miss Anna, treasure hunting depends on fate. We can wait until we reach the destination."

"Okay, I'll leave everything to Mr. Li."

Li Mo thought for a moment and suddenly asked: "Miss Anna, are you familiar with the situation in the Amber Room?"

"Amber Room?" Anna thought for a moment and said, "You know, there was once an independent organization responsible for searching for the Amber Room. However, after more than half a century of searching, nothing was found. Later, it was abandoned and the organization was cancelled. Mr. Li, did you go to Huangcun today specifically to see the Amber Room?"

"Before coming here, I had learned about some major historical events, such as the mystery of Napoleon's treasure and the mystery of the disappearance of the Amber Room."

Anna nodded slightly and said: "It's a pity that the Amber Room and Napoleon's treasure have disappeared without a trace. If it still exists, it must be the most important treasure of our country."

"If, I mean if, if I have a chance to find the whereabouts of the Amber Room in the future, what price are you willing to pay?"

Anna hesitated and said: "I don't know this, but if we can really find it, I believe our country will do whatever it takes."

"Don't you want to report everything I say and do? I suggest you report everything I just said verbatim. Maybe one day I will really find relevant clues. Of course. , if you are not interested at that time, then I will find a way to get it back."

Anna couldn't understand Li Mo. He asked her to report it word for word. What did he mean? He couldn't have mentioned this to himself for no reason. He must have had some clues before he asked himself to report it. He said it was if, but actually he wanted to convey a deeper meaning to himself. He had a clue to the Amber Room in his hands.

After thinking about it like this, Anna couldn't see through Li Mo even more, and he was shrouded in a mysterious aura.

"Mr. Li, I will report to my superiors truthfully."

Li Mo gave them a vaccination first, believing that Anna could understand what he meant.

"One more thing is whether there is an error in the information you gave me about Lake Samliobo. I searched for relevant information on the Internet and couldn't find it at all."

"It is true that there is no such lake in Lake Samliobo, but there is the Samriobo Swamp. This is just a clue that we compiled ourselves that is closer to the truth. Among the information left behind due to the continuous war during World War II No one knows how much of it is true. Maybe Lake Samliobo is just a piece of wrong information deliberately left by the other party to mislead our judgment."

This statement is quite reliable. It seems that this trip to Samliobo Swamp will not go smoothly.

In fact, Li Mo could roughly guess that it is said that Napoleon's treasure contains a large number of murals, sculptures, etc. Even the stupidest person knows that these two cultural relics and antiques must not be thrown into the swamp. This is no different from direct destruction.

Of course, extreme things cannot be ruled out, that is, if you can't get it, you must never let the other side get it again.

"I'll take a nap first and call me when you get there."

Li Mo closed his eyes, and Zhu Caicai's head was leaning on his shoulder and fell asleep.

When he woke up, the car had entered a small city.

"Mr. Li, let's check in first. The Samliobo Swamp is nearby. Seeing that the sky is getting dark, we won't go there today. If we have enough time tomorrow, we can go there and take a look around."

"Just follow your arrangements."

This hotel is small, but fortunately the room environment I booked was pretty good.

"Mr. Li, the four antiques you bought have been given to our people for special protection. This is the information compiled today. Please take a look at it first."

"Okay, I'll let you know when I have new arrangements."

Li Mo sat on the two-seat sofa by the window, looked through the compiled documents carefully, then picked up a pen on the table and drew a circle on one of the lines.

"There is also a primitive mountain range fifty or sixty meters above sea level near the Samliobo Swamp."

Zhu Caicai walked into the room with a cup of coffee and said, "Brother Daxia, what do you want to eat tonight? I'll make a reservation now."

"I'm not picky about food, just watch it."

Li Mo put the documents on the side table, stood up and stretched.

Cai Cai glanced at it a few times before leaving, but she didn't know what important content was circled.

"Fang, where is Professor Zheng Bin?"

"They are taking another route, and they are not expected to arrive until midnight." Fangya asked a little puzzled, "Mr. Li, why did they go separately?"

“You can’t put all your eggs in one basket.”

This metaphor is inappropriate, but Tuya probably understands what he means, that is, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst.

"Is there anyone else hanging behind us?"

"They are still the ones who want to buy that... Easter egg from you. It seems they are not giving up yet."

"In that case, let them come."

"yes."

Two billion rubles is definitely not enough, not even to look at it. Since they are representatives of a super energy tycoon, then maybe that tycoon has the Chinese cultural relics and antiques I want.

"Since it's all about talking, then both parties should be honest."

In about ten minutes, three people entered the room led by Tusk.

"Hello, Mr. Li, my name is Pu Qing, and I am the person in charge of this project negotiation." Pu Qing is over fifty years old and speaks Chinese fluently. "I have been in China for nearly ten years. The company sent me to serve as a regional president, so I speak Chinese fairly well."

"Pretty good." Li Mo said sincerely.

Pu Qing introduced the two people around him, one was a lawyer and the other was the invited appraiser. If Li Mo agreed to the transaction, the antique would still need to be carefully appraised by a professional.

"You three, please take a seat."

Li Mo was looking at them, and they were also looking at Li Mo consciously or unconsciously. Different from what they understood from the information, they still felt a different kind of pressure from Li Mo when they saw a real person at such a close distance.

"Mr. Li, our boss is a big collector and attaches great importance to the Fabella egg belonging to Emperor Alexander III of Russia, so he sent us to communicate with you, hoping to find a price position that satisfies both parties. ."

"You were not sincere in your first two offers, but I still give you one last chance. Before negotiating the price, I will talk to you about other topics."

Pu Qing smiled quickly and said, "Mr. Li, please tell me."

"Just now you mentioned that your boss is a big collector. I wonder if he has any antiques from China?"

"Of course there is, and the collection is quite impressive."

"That's fine. Don't raise the price. I'll exchange the first Fabella Easter egg of Russian Emperor Alexander III for the cultural relics and antiques from China in the hands of your boss. I originally wanted to exchange it with the officials, but they were even less sincere. , so I just excluded them."

"I need to communicate with the boss directly on the phone first."

"No problem. If your boss agrees, then we will continue to discuss the details."

Pu Qing took out his phone and went to the corridor outside and dialed a number. After getting through, he started to report and returned after a while with a relaxed expression.

"Mr. Li, our boss has agreed. Then let's talk about your requirements in detail."

"I'll ask someone to send the Fabella eggs over. You guys need to appraise them again. If there's nothing wrong with them, you can make a list of exchanges for me. We'll make a deal if it's suitable."

"good."

Someone soon delivered a square box, and Li Mo opened it and took out a gold-encrusted white jade egg. The appraisal expert's hands were trembling slightly with excitement. After Li Mo put it on the table, he slowly touched the surface of the Faber egg.

Then he carefully opened it layer by layer, until the huge natural diamond on the last layer appeared in everyone's eyes, which triggered three different exclamations.

"Mr. Li, after identification, this is indeed the first Fabella Easter egg ordered by Emperor III of Russia."

"If it is confirmed, you can leave first and ask your boss to make a breakdown of the collection of Chinese antiques. I will take a look at the exchange items and remind you that you only have one last chance, otherwise I will directly arrange for someone to escort you back to the country and display them in My Gu Yun Xuan Museum is open to the public anywhere.”

"Mr. Li, we will come with the greatest sincerity."

"hope so."

After the three people left, Zhu Caicai walked into the room and asked with a smile: "Brother Daxia, will the other party honestly give you a detailed list this time?"

"No one is stupid. I have given them the opportunity. It is up to them whether they can seize the opportunity."

The dinner was very sumptuous and steak was just one of the dishes.

The next day, Li Mo walked directly to the restaurant after washing up, and happened to meet Anna on the way.

"Miss Anna, did you not sleep well last night?"

Anna touched her face and asked, "Do I have two dark circles under my eyes?"

"The dark circles under my eyes are extremely clear."

Anna changed the topic and asked directly: "Mr. Li, did you have an agreement with the representative of the energy tycoon yesterday?"

"It's almost half done."

"Mr. Li didn't pick the right one from the collection list we provided?"

"No." Li Mo shook his head directly and added, "You official people just want to take advantage."

Zhu Caicai also caught up. When she saw Li Mo and Anna were very close to each other when they were talking, she quickly stood between them and smiled: "Good morning, Brother Daxia, good morning Miss Anna."

"Good morning, Miss Zhu."

"Miss Anna, are there any landmark buildings or mountains around the swamp we are going to today?"
