After all, Tang, Song and Yuan would have to hang out in Marseille for a long time in the future, so he still had to deal with it when the mayor summoned him.
Ten minutes later, Tang Songyuan and Li Qingying rushed to the Marseille Pier Management Office.
The management office provides a reception room as a place for several people to talk.
Mayor Condor is a middle-aged man in his fifties, with some sparse hair neatly trimmed, and a slightly stout figure. It seems that butter bread is really nourishing.
After Macaulay's introduction, Tang Songyuan greeted him politely.
After sitting down, Condor first smiled and praised: "Today's sculpture of the sun god Amon, I really appreciate your company's help,"
"I heard that you personally went to the bottom of the water more than 300 meters deep and completed such an incredible job by yourself. Can you tell me how you did it?"
"Is it dangerous under the deep sea?"
After Li Qingying translated, Tang Songyuan smiled slightly and said: "It's not very dangerous. The light under the deep sea is dim and the environment is closed. The only opponent you have to defeat is yourself..."
Neither denying his credit nor exaggerating.
"very good!"
"As mayor I very much support your investment in Marseille and given the outstanding contribution you have made to the city," Condor continued.
"I have decided to provide policy support to your company for one year."
"Including financial subsidies and tax exemptions, your company will enjoy the most favorable policies..."
Generally speaking, whether it is financial subsidies or tax exemptions, it is most likely that technology companies or large factories will have the opportunity to enjoy such benefits.
Unexpectedly, Condor directly gave him a one-year deadline.
Tang Songyuan was overjoyed immediately and thanked: "Thank you Mayor Condor for your support. I will definitely work hard to run the company better..."
Condor nodded, and the expression on his face became slightly serious again.
"I received news yesterday from a Spanish friend of mine," he said.
"The Spanish Parliament has the intention to recover the gold coins you fished out of the Atlantic some time ago,"
"After that, a relevant working group will be set up to negotiate with your company on returning the gold coins."
"So your batch of gold coins will be temporarily restricted from sale."
"I hope your company can respond well and not cause unnecessary international disputes..."
Damn it, they really have the nerve to come and ask for it!
These gold coins were first salvaged from the high seas in the Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties, and neither international practice nor Spanish law is eligible to recover these gold coins.
But others are just going to do it, so what can you do?
Tang Songyuan suppressed the anger in his heart and said calmly to Condor: "Thank you, Mayor Condor, for telling me the news. I will deal with it well."
"Please rest assured that there will definitely not be any international disputes!"
After coming out of the terminal management office, Tang Songyuan asked Li Qingying: "Has the company received an official letter from Spain?"
Li Qingying shook her head and said: "Not yet. What Condor just said should be their internal gossip."
"But even if there is no definite news yet, they definitely have signs of it."
Tang Songyuan hummed, and then said: "Then you call Margery and ask her to seal the batch of gold coins and send them to the port of Le Havre again."
Li Qingying said in surprise: "Are you really planning to throw those gold coins back into the sea?"
Tang Songyuan snorted coldly: "Of course, we not only have to throw it away, but we also have to throw it away with great fanfare, preferably live broadcast on the Internet."
"We put on a show before they formally ask for it from us. We don't want these gold coins, and we won't give those dog robbers an advantage in vain!"
"Anyway, these gold coins come from the sea. If they have the ability, they can go to the sea and fish them out..."
He was too lazy to argue with the other party. Anyway, even if it was thrown into the sea, he had plenty of ways to get it back.
Li Qingying showed a knowing expression on her face and chuckled: "Okay, I'll arrange this right away!"
The next day, Tang Songyuan did three things.
The first was to change the name of the salvage company. It was originally the name given by Richardson, and he changed it to Daxia Marine Salvage Co., Ltd.
At the same time, the company was merged into the offshore company that Ni Sisi had acquired for him before, which was to put another shell on the outside of Daxia Salvage Company.
Then it was time to move the company's office. He and Li Qingying had rented a new warehouse and office building at the Marseille Pier, which was just in use.
Finally, he and Li Qingying went north to the port of Le Havre, where they waited for Julian to bring the Harvest Horn over.
When they arrived at the place, Li Qingying pretended to be mysterious and said to Tang Songyuan:
"Shall I take you to meet someone?"
Although Tang Songyuan was a little confused, he still followed.
In a star hotel near the pier, Tang Songyuan met a white girl.
Li Qingying introduced: "This is Caroline. She is a very famous French model and Internet celebrity. She has millions of fans on both YouTube and inS."
"Yesterday I heard you said that you wanted to live broadcast online, so I contacted Caroline via private message on inS. I didn't expect that she agreed."
Caroline is about 1.7 meters tall, with a slim and well-proportioned figure, delicate and beautiful facial features, and very attractive blue eyes.
Tang Songyuan greeted politely: "Miss Caroline, thank you very much for your help."
Of course he spoke in Chinese. After Li Qingying translated, Caroline shook his hand with a smile and said:
"I actually don't quite understand. You've already spent so much effort to pick up so many gold coins, why do you still have to put so much effort into throwing them back into the sea?"
"That's a gold coin, and it's an antique from hundreds of years ago..."
It seemed that Li Qingying didn't explain it too clearly to her, so Tang Songyuan once again told the gossip he heard from Condor,
He also said: "My intention is to be a low-key businessman and I don't want to cause any unnecessary trouble."
"Although gold coins are important, I don't want to be accused of being a thief or robber."
"Especially those people who were robbers hundreds of years ago. I don't want to deal with them or cause unnecessary trouble,"
"So I would rather throw the gold coins back into the sea. Anyway, they have spent hundreds of years in the sea..."
An expression of admiration appeared on Caroline's face, but she also showed her hatred for certain forces.
She clenched her fists and said: "That's great. I think you are right. I would rather throw it back into the sea than let them take advantage..."
