At about one o'clock at noon, Xiao Ran and the others just returned to the Plaza Hotel, but this time they came back by car.
As soon as they entered the presidential suite, Elaine and the others greeted them.
"Dear, have you given away those 40 precious volumes of "Yongle Dadian"?"
"We just saw on the news that there were shots fired near JFK Airport."
Xiao Ran looked at her, then smiled and said:
"Don't worry, dear, I personally sent the portable safe containing "Yongle Dadian" on the plane."
"Then I watched the cargo plane take off and fly away from New York, and then I took the people back to the hotel."
"There was indeed a gunfight near the airport, but it had nothing to do with us. It was a group of robbers who looted the Rolex store before the siege after the police received a tip."
"Those guys were so desperate that they happened to appear near the airport, but they were discovered by the police, so a shootout broke out."
Speaking of this, a smile couldn't help flashing in his eyes.
Those stupid thieves who robbed Rolex stores tried to rob themselves this time, following them all the way from Manhattan to near JFK Airport.
As a result, before they could take action, the police received a tip and took action first!
As for the person who provided the information to the police, most likely it is related to the Consulate General in New York, but there is no evidence!
After comforting Elaine and the others, Xiao Ran went upstairs to wash and disinfect, disarm and change clothes.
Ten minutes later, he came down from upstairs and walked into the living room.
After he sat down on the sofa, Fang Yufei immediately said:
"Xiao Ran, during the live broadcast just now, many people wanted to join the live broadcast room and sent requests online."
"Towards the end of the live broadcast, we had received more than 80,000 applications, and we couldn't review them at all!"
"Among these applications, there are several top domestic antiquities, cultural relics and art appraisal experts, including two curators from the Forbidden City and the National Museum of China."
"They were introduced by Mr. Jin and Mr. Qiu. Do you want them to join? What about the other applications?"
"Wow!"
Xiao Ran exclaimed and was startled.
At the same time, his eyes were shining with excitement.
He understood that the live broadcast of the transaction of the 40 volumes of "Yongle Dadian" and the return of those national treasures to the country had caused a huge sensation in the country.
Because of this live broadcast, my influence in the country has skyrocketed like a rocket, and the limelight is extremely strong!
Because of this, there are so many appraisal experts and fans trying to join their live broadcast room and applying one after another.
And this is exactly the result that Xiao Ran wants to see.
After pondering for a moment, he gave an answer.
"Of course the top appraisal experts introduced by Mr. Jin and Mr. Qiu can join the live broadcast room."
"The more top appraisal experts like this, the better. We will welcome all who come!"
"As for other applications to join the live broadcast room, they must be treated differently. Not everyone can join!"
"I'm going to open a few more live broadcast rooms. The upper limit of fans in each live broadcast room is set to 10,000. It's time for the company's online store to go online."
"You can't just rely on me to shout in the live broadcast room. Then I will die from exhaustion?"
Fang Yufei was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes angrily, pouted and complained a few words.
"It's easy for you, but we are exhausted!"
"If we open a few more live broadcast rooms, we will definitely gain tens of thousands of fans. Just processing the applications will make us vomit blood!"
"We have to carefully screen the fans who apply and treat them differently. The workload will be even greater!"
"If you start a live broadcast again, we will have to watch the live broadcast room with tens of thousands of people. No matter how many eyes we have, there won't be enough!"
"No, you have to add more people to me, and they all have to understand Chinese!"
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"No problem, I can add more manpower to you. Let's just recruit some more international students!"
"As for identifying fans, I'm going to leave it to my sister-in-law."
"This is more convenient and faster to do in China, and it can also prevent fans' personal privacy from being leaked!"
"ah!"
Fang Yufei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
She instantly thought of a few words, big data, police, and relevant departments.
Are there some people with ulterior motives hiding among the fans who applied, such as 1450 and so on.
Let the relevant departments secretly review it, and you can tell whether it is a human or a ghost in a blink of an eye!
After chatting for a few more words, Xiao Ran changed the topic.
"Three beauties, after lunch and a short rest, we will go to 64th Street to see the two newly purchased apartment buildings."
"The quality of those two apartment buildings is good. I'm going to pick one or two luxury apartments for our own use."
“That way, when I come to New York again, I won’t have to stay in a hotel.”
"As for how those apartments are decorated and furnished, it is up to you to design and decide."
As soon as she finished speaking, Swift asked curiously:
"Sean, you are so extravagant and inhumane!"
"I bought two apartment buildings in the Upper East Side right away, instead of two luxury apartments. This is the rhythm of being a landlord!"
“But I don’t quite understand why the location you chose is not Fifth Avenue or Madison Avenue, which has the best view and best location?”
"It is located on East 64th Street, which is relatively inferior. Is there any other reason for this?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran, Yi Lian and the others laughed in unison.
Although Swift had been staying in the presidential suite for the past two days, she didn't know what Xiao Ran was planning secretly.
Both Elaine and Fang Yufei remained silent and did not reveal anything about Friedrich's treasure.
"I chose to buy these two luxury apartment buildings on 64th Street, and I naturally have my reasons."
"You will soon know what the reason is, don't worry."
Xiao Ran said with a smile, giving it a try.
Hearing this, Swift rolled her eyes angrily, but there was nothing she could do.
After chatting for a while, they went to have lunch.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiao Ran took Elaine and the others out of the hotel in a car and drove straight to East 64th Street, which was not far away.
After a while, they arrived at the apartment building at 450 East 64th Street and stopped in front of the building.
Nick and the others, who had arrived here in advance to make their first stop, were waiting in front of the apartment building.
Also here are several tenants living in the apartment building.
At this point, these guys were confused.
They never expected that it would be Xiao Ran who bought this luxury apartment building.
In the current depressed New York, he is undoubtedly the most popular person, no one can compare to him!
Looking at this heavy-duty convoy coming with a roar, several tenants were filled with surprise, curiosity, and a hint of worry.
The motorcade stopped, Xiao Ran quickly scanned the surroundings and prepared to get out of the car.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Counselor Wang.
Xiao Ran took out his cell phone and glanced at Laixian, then answered the call.
The next moment, Counselor Wang's voice came over, sounding a little solemn.
"Where are you? Xiao Ran, can you answer the phone?"
Xiao Ran paused for a moment, then nodded and said:
"I'm in the car, Uncle Wang, getting ready to go out to do something."
"It's safe in the car. If you have anything to say, just say it."
"OK"
Counselor Wang responded and then continued:
"The Air China cargo plane transporting the 40 copies of "Yongle Dadian" was forced to land at Ottawa Airport by the Canadian Air Traffic Control Bureau just after it passed through Canadian airspace."
"After the plane landed, it was temporarily detained by Canadian Customs under the pretext of security and was not allowed to take off again."
"Fortunately, Canadian Customs did not immediately search the plane. Obviously, the Canadians came here for the 40 volumes of "Yongle Dadian"."
"The person standing behind Canada should be a big shot in the United States. That guy wants to borrow the Canadian's hand to seize the batch of "Yongle Dadian"
"ah!"
Xiao Ran exclaimed, his eyes suddenly became extremely cold.
The next moment, he thought of the haggard crazy old woman.
That is a despicable person with no credibility at all, who can do anything!
For various reasons, that crazy old woman couldn't do it in the United States.
That's why I ordered Canada's thugs to make an emergency landing after the Air China cargo plane entered Canadian airspace.
Their purpose is very clear, which is to prevent the batch of "Yongle Dadian" from returning to China smoothly.
If those 40 volumes of "Yongle Dadian" fall into the hands of Canadians, it is very likely that they will be destroyed by the Canadians under some pretext, and then they will refuse to admit it!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ran immediately gritted his molars and said:
"Canadians are a bunch of scoundrels. Remember this, they will pay the price!"
Although his tone was cold, his expression was not anxious.
After a pause, Counselor Wang continued:
"After receiving the news, we immediately sent a protest to Canada to protest their arrogant practices and emphasized in particular that diplomatic parcels are inviolable!"
"The Embassy in Canada responded immediately, immediately issued a solemn protest to the Canadian authorities, and sent people to the Ottawa Airport!"
"The country has received the news and issued a statement of protest. If Canadians do not want the relationship between the two countries to get worse, they will never dare to snatch those diplomatic parcels."
At this point, he stopped talking and did not continue.
Xiao Ran knew his subtext clearly.
That's one word, drag!
The next moment, Xiao Ran said coldly:
"Uncle Wang, I believe you can handle this matter!"
"I also believe that the 40 volumes of "Yongle Dadian" will be sent back to China smoothly!"
After chatting for a few more words, he hung up the phone.
After adjusting my mood for a while, I opened the door and got out of the car, landing in front of the apartment building I just bought!
