N-A-A Chapter 544
Chapter 544
In the blink of an eye, it was about eight thirty in the evening.
After dinner, the joint exploration team members who had previously remained in the hotel had set off and rushed to the chapel to take over the exploration and cleanup.
From now until tomorrow morning, they will remain in the chapel, waiting to be replaced by the next group of explorers.
This cycle will continue for some time to come until the colonial treasure is completely cleared.
Although Xiao Ran did not go to the chapel again, he was not idle.
He keeps an eye on the ongoing exploration by exploring the video footage transmitted in real time from the scene.
Occasionally, I would give a little guidance and discuss it with Professor Baker.
During this time, David quickly assembled a team of lawyers to oversee the ongoing exploratory clean-up operations on site and protect his own interests.
After the formation of the legal team, Xiao Ran met with these Boston lawyers one by one and signed a cooperation commission agreement.
In addition, Sam also recruited a group of professional armed security personnel to strengthen the security outside the chapel.
Another major event that also happened today, the US election, is still in full swing at this time.
After dealing with the matter at hand, Xiao Ran and they sat on the sofa, drinking coffee while watching the farcical election battle on TV.
From time to time, they also take care of the ongoing explorations.
At the end of the day, the two sides did not divide the victory and defeat, and the election situation was still anxious.
Reflected in the news media, it is crazy attacks and denigration of each other, looking a bit dog-eat-dog.
As outsiders, Xiao Ran was happy to watch the excitement.
"Honey, who do you think will win this election in the end? I feel that the old white hair may win a little higher,"
Elaine asked suddenly curiously.
Xiao Ran looked at him, and then said jokingly:
"It doesn't matter who wins, anyway, it's all a hill, as long as it doesn't infringe on my interests
" "However, with the unscrupulous personality of the golden retriever, if he loses this election, that old guy will never give up!"
"Just wait and see, the golden retriever can definitely make some earth-shattering things, and even can't rule out messing with the United States"
Hearing this, Elaine and Fang Yufei were stunned for a moment, and seemed to be a little unbelievable.
Just as they were about to ask two questions, Xiao Ran's mobile phone suddenly rang.
Xiao Ran picked up the mobile phone and glanced at it, then turned down the TV sound, and then connected the call.
The next moment, Counselor Wang's voice immediately came.
"Good evening, Xiao Ran, just now I reported to the State Administration of Cultural Heritage and relevant departments on the previous batch of smuggled antique cultural relics, I have been very busy" Xiao Ran
smiled softly, and then said
: "Good evening, Uncle Wang, I don't have anything important, that is, to talk about the discovery of this treasure today
" The next moment, Counselor Wang responded with a smile:
"Then let's talk about it, I'm really interested, The
discovery of this treasure has caused a huge sensation" "Today is the US election day, if it is another day, the discovery of this treasure will cause a greater sensation"
Then, Xiao Ran began to introduce the situation of today's treasure.
Today, this colonial treasure hides a huge amount of gold, as well as gold products and various antique artifacts.
Especially those gold, such a large amount, is definitely not to be underestimated.
Even if the gold cannot be shipped back to China, how to deal with it is still necessary to say hello to the relevant domestic departments.
Xiao Ran did not hide anything, but said all the methods he had thought of to deal with.
His treatment was simple, all non-antique artifact gold would be sold to the Addams family at a premium.
Half of the money is transferred directly back to the country, while the other half remains in the company's account in the United States.
Antiques and gold artifacts remaining in the treasure, such as numerous gold statues, are disposed of in batches.
A small number of them are traded in cash, and more are exchanged with universities and cultural institutions in the United States.
As for the subject of the exchange, needless to ask, of course, it is the loss of many top Chinese antique works of art in the United States.
In a moment, Xiao Ran had finished introducing the situation.
Counselor Wang paused for a moment, and then said with emotion:
"I have to say that your kid's luck is too against the sky, and his handwriting is too big, and it is more amazing every time!"
"I will reflect your words, I believe no one will object, these gold and antique artifacts belong to you after all"
At this point, he suddenly changed his tone.
"Xiao Ran, tell you something, the information you transmitted back to China through Lao Zhao before, the relevant domestic departments attach great importance to it
" "Now the relevant domestic departments have taken action, just now we are discussing this matter, and there will be results soon
" "Those requirements you put forward, after discussion, the relevant domestic departments think that they are acceptable, but it depends on the specific situation"
The words did not fall, and Xiao Ran cheered excitedly.
"It's great, Uncle Wang, in this way, I don't have to worry about the lack of exhibits in my museum, which is really good news!"
"Since the relevant departments have launched actions, if there is anything that needs my help, you can just open your mouth, I am obliged!"
"I don't mix domestic affairs, under the iron fist of the dictatorship, I believe that no tomb robbery gang cannot be eliminated!"
"But overseas, especially in Southeast Asia and the Americas, there are some things that countries are inconvenient to deal with, and there are too many constraints!"
Counselor Wang paused for a moment, and then responded:
"Indeed, cases involving the smuggling of antique art often encounter a lot of trouble, have to go through a lot of procedures, layer by layer of prevarication, and in the end it is likely that things will not be done
" "The relevant domestic departments handle cases overseas, which is bound to pass through Interpol, as well as the police and competent departments of the host country, which adds a lot of variables and increases the risk of leakage"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this.
"These concerns do not exist for me, things that are difficult to do on the official face, we may as well change the method, as long as the purpose is achieved
" "If necessary, some things can be handed over to me to handle, I will definitely be able to do it seamlessly, without leaving any hidden dangers
" "Those antique works of art that were stolen and smuggled out of the country, I can recover them, send them all back to China, and display them in my museum later
" "Shhh!"
Counselor Wang couldn't help but gasp, somewhat terrified.
Of course, he understood what Xiao Ran meant when he said to do things in another way.
At the same time, he also understood that with Xiao Ran's means, there was no problem at all to successfully achieve the goal.
As for the ability, then it is even less of a problem!
After a moment of silence, Counselor Wang responded:
"Okay, Xiao Ran, I will reflect this matter, I believe there will be an answer soon"
After a few words, Xiao Ran talked about another thing.
"Uncle Wang, the reason why I called you today, there is one more thing I ask for your help
" "It should be that the day after tomorrow, I will start talks with Prince William in England to negotiate an art deal
" "Prince William's goal is to get the Shakespeare manuscripts and Plantagenet family historical documents in my hand
" "My purpose is to collect some of the top Chinese antique artworks in the British Museum, this opportunity to slash the Englishman, Don't miss it
" "If this heavyweight antique art deal is concluded, the relevant departments of
the embassy in the UK will have to come forward to assist" "That's why I called you, let you say hello to the ministry, and then ask the embassy in the UK to do a favor
" "Oh! Your boy's handwriting is a little scary, and in a blink of an eye, he remembered it in the British Museum!
Counselor Wang exclaimed, obviously taken aback.
At the same time, he became more excited.
Xiao Ran smiled softly, and said proudly:
"The British royal family attaches great importance to the historical documents of the Plantagenet family, obviously afraid that something will happen to them, and they are also afraid of being calculated
" "And there are many good things in the British Museum, including many top antique works looted from China, now that we have this opportunity, what are we polite?"
Before the words fell, Counselor Wang immediately continued:
"That's right, you don't need to be polite with those robbers, you must take the opportunity to get back some national treasures!"
"I will immediately inform the Ministry of this matter, and ask my colleagues from the embassy in the UK to help and try my best to facilitate this deal
" Xiao Ran nodded, and then continued:
"Then trouble Uncle Wang, when notifying the country, it is best to ask the State Administration of Cultural Heritage about it, which national treasures do you want to exchange back this time?" It's best to pull a list
" "When I negotiate with Prince William the day after tomorrow, I can also be targeted and exchange for the most valuable antique artworks
" Counselor Wang immediately responded, and said excitedly:
"No problem, you should be well prepared, but I'm more curious, how do you conduct the appraisal?"
"Are you going to fly to London, England, and trade in London?"
Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.
"No need! The initiative of this transaction is completely in my hands, and the British can only follow my command!
"After reaching an agreement, they need to take the initiative to ship those top Chinese antique artworks used for exchange
to Beijing" "When those antique artworks are shipped to Beijing, they will complete the appraisal and confirm that there is no problem, and I will hand over Shakespeare's manuscripts and the historical documents of the Plantagenet family
" Counselor Wang paused for a moment, and then said appreciatively:
"This method is good, don't worry about being pitted by the British, you can trade with confidence!"
"In order to ensure the safety of the transaction and to ensure your interests, I will rush to Boston the day after tomorrow to participate in the negotiations between the two of you
" "That couldn't be better, this will undoubtedly make the British a little more worried,"
Xiao Ran said with a smile and a nod.
After a while of chatting about negotiations and deals, they ended the call.
Subsequently, Counselor Wang began to contact the relevant domestic departments to make various arrangements.
Unsurprisingly, Xiao Ran's words and arrangements were transmitted back to China, which immediately caused quite a stir and made many people excited.
As for Xiao Ran himself, he was leisurely.
He then called his family again to explain the situation and save them from worrying.
Then he said hello to Jin Lao and asked them to have a mental preparation.
