In the evening, in the hotel suite.
Xiao Ran was sitting on the sofa, watching the news on NHK TV.
The content reported in the news is exactly one of the "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" by Kikuichi Mononorimune and Katsushika Hokusai, which is on public display at the Tokyo National Museum.
After the Japanese obtained these two antique cultural relics and works of art, they immediately held a press conference to announce the news.
The emperor's envoy also announced at the press conference that these important top-level antique cultural relics and works of art will be publicly displayed at the Tokyo National Museum for a period of time.
As the news was announced, the Japanese were ecstatic and all news media were reporting on this cultural event.
In this atmosphere, no one cares at all.
What price did Japan pay in exchange for these things?
Looking at the Japanese people with chrysanthemum smiles on their faces in the news, Xiao Ran also smiled proudly.
At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from my sister-in-law, and it was a video call.
Xiao Ran immediately turned off the TV, picked up his cell phone and answered the call.
The next moment, my sister-in-law appeared on the phone screen.
There are many familiar figures beside and behind her, such as Shan Lao and others.
Not far away, there were two Air China cargo planes that had just arrived in Beijing from Tokyo.
The first time she saw Xiao Ran, my sister-in-law said excitedly:
"Xiao Ran, the two cargo planes transporting gold and antique artworks have successfully arrived at the Capital Airport. We are on the airport runway and are handing over."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"I saw those two cargo planes. Please work hard. After counting all the gold and antiques, we will transport them back to the city and store them."
After greeting his sister-in-law, Xiao Ran greeted Shan Lao and the others one by one and said a few polite words.
Then, a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties suddenly appeared in the video screen.
The sister-in-law immediately introduced the other party's identity. He was a director from the central bank, in charge of the gold reserve business.
After everyone got to know each other and exchanged polite words, the director suddenly said:
"Xiao Ran, we have just appraised the batch of gold you sent back to Beijing. The quality is very good and the purity is extremely high!"
"Here, I would like to ask, what do you plan to do with this batch of gold? Are you going to keep it for yourself, or sell it?"
At this point, the director immediately stopped talking and just looked at Xiao Ran with a smile.
Xiao Ran knew the unspoken subtext very well.
Obviously, the central bank is interested in this batch of high-purity gold and wants to collect it as reserve gold.
Not only the central bank, but also any other bank or central bank of any country, who can see this batch of gold and not be moved?
For example, the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan are no exception!
Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.
"Director Zhu, I am in Tokyo now and have not returned to China yet. It is too early to talk about this matter now!"
"When I return to China in a while, let's talk about how to deal with this batch of gold. It won't be too late!"
"I can guarantee that this batch of high-purity gold will never be shipped out of the country again, and will only stay in China."
Upon hearing this, Director Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.
Although Xiao Ran did not say whether he would sell this batch of high-purity gold to the central bank.
But as long as this batch of gold remains in the country and is always stored in state-controlled banks, isn't it just a reserve of gold?
After understanding this, Director Zhu immediately smiled and nodded.
"Okay, Xiao Ran, when you come back from Japan, we will discuss how to deal with this batch of gold."
"In addition, I wish you all the best to find treasures in Japan again, preferably more high-purity gold."
"Hahaha, I'll try my best, but I'm afraid the Japanese won't want to!"
Xiao Ran said jokingly.
After chatting for a few words, Director Zhu exited the video screen.
Next, Xiao Ran witnessed the entire handover process of the batch of gold and numerous antique artworks through the video screen.
Whether it was the batch of gold or the many antiques and artworks, the quantities were large, and there were no problems.
During the handover process, Shan Lao and the others were very excited to see the top antique cultural relics and works of art that had been lost to Japan for many years and now finally returned to their homeland.
They were full of praise for Xiao Ran.
It didn't take long for the handover to be completed.
Afterwards, my sister-in-law and the others returned to the city with the batch of gold and antique artworks, escorted by a large number of armed police.
The company employees and security personnel who escorted these treasures to Beijing immediately set off and took a charter flight that had been arranged for them to fly directly to Osaka, Japan.
After they arrived in Osaka, they could just make some preparations for Xiao Ran's trip to Osaka.
As we spoke, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.
Xiao Ran called Xu Lin and Wang Jue over to prepare for the last live broadcast of the Tokyo trip.
The reason why these two beauties were called over was to let them keep an eye on the action in the live broadcast room so as not to miss any important information.
After they arrived at the suite, Xiao Ran briefly introduced the situation to them and mentioned some precautions.
Looking at these two beauties, they were all beaming with excitement and couldn't wait.
Before the live broadcast started, Xu Lin suddenly asked with expectation:
"Brother Xiao Ran, can we join your live broadcast room and join the fan WeChat group to become your fans?"
"Your live broadcast room has now become a legend. Countless people want to join, but few people do so."
After the words fell, Wang Jue immediately nodded in agreement.
"Yes, brother Xiao Ran, we all want to join your live broadcast room, please!"
With that said, these two beauties began to act coquettishly and cutely.
Xiao Ran looked at them and nodded helplessly.
"Okay, you can join the live broadcast room, and I'll tell Yufei later."
"You can join the live broadcast room, but you must abide by the rules and keep it confidential, otherwise you will be kicked out!"
When they heard that they could join Xiao Ran's live broadcast room, the two beauties jumped up excitedly.
"That's great, Brother Xiao Ran, I knew you would agree!"
"We will call Sister Yufei later and ask her to go through it and pull us into the WeChat group."
On the first night that Xu Lin and the others checked into the hotel, in order to avoid misunderstandings, Xiao Ran immediately made a video call with Yi Lian to introduce the two girls and explain their situation.
Through the video, these two beauties not only got to know Yi Lian, but also Fang Yufei.
After several videos, they seemed to have become best friends.
Looking at the two ecstatic beauties, Xiao Ran smiled softly and then interrupted their celebration.
"Okay, it's time, get ready to start the live broadcast."
Upon hearing this, the two beauties stuck out their tongues, then sat down and quickly got into their roles.
Seeing that they were ready, Xiao Ran turned on the live broadcast camera and started the live broadcast.
As several live broadcast rooms were opened at the same time, tens of thousands of fans who had already received the news immediately poured in like a tide.
The time difference between Japan and China is basically negligible.
It was evening in China at this time, and everyone had time to participate in the live broadcast, so naturally everyone was present.
In the blink of an eye, the scenes in several live broadcast rooms were completely covered by barrages pouring down like a torrential rain.
Those who had voice permissions in the main live broadcast room began to speak out one after another.
"Xiao Ran, you are finally willing to start a live broadcast. The flowers everyone has been waiting for are almost gone!"
"Xiao Ran, I heard that you killed everyone in Japan. You fought against the Yamaguchi-gumi and Sumiyoshi-kai, the three major gangs in Japan, and you killed those little Japanese to the point of losing their armor. Is this true or false?"
Seeing the barrages flying in the live broadcast room and listening to the words of many fans, Xiao Ran just smiled softly and didn't take it seriously.
Outside the live broadcast, the two beauties holding iPads and staring at the live broadcast were so shocked that they froze in place.
Before this, they had never seen such a scene, and they had never even heard of it.
Before they could react, Xiao Ran had already started the live broadcast with a smile.
"Hello everyone, there are a lot of things going on these two days and I don't have time, so there is no live broadcast. Please understand."
"Our affairs in Tokyo, Japan, have basically been dealt with. Next, I will take my men to Osaka."
"I just have time tonight, so I will go live online and take this opportunity to chat with everyone and relax."
Before he finished speaking, some guys in the main live broadcast room started talking.
"Xiao Ran, we have seen a lot of reports about you in Tokyo in the past two days on the Internet. I know you are very busy."
"But we also know that you have swept through the Tokyo antique market and found countless valuable treasures."
"How about it? Can we release some treasures and hold a few auctions in the live broadcast room? Everyone is looking forward to it!"
Tianya Mingyue Dao said with great expectation.
This is something that almost all fans are looking forward to, and everyone echoed it.
The next moment, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"Of course it's no problem, but I have to wait until I return to Beijing to hold a few auctions in the live broadcast room."
"The harvest from this trip to Tokyo has been shipped back to Beijing today. Some of the treasures inside can be auctioned in the live broadcast room."
"There are antique cultural relics and works of art, as well as hundreds of luxury watches and jewelry. I believe it can meet everyone's requirements."
"After I return to Beijing in a few days, I will be quarantined again for a while. I have nothing to do, so it would be good to do an auction."
After hearing this, several live broadcast rooms suddenly felt like boiling pots were boiling, and bursts of cheers erupted one after another.
When the cheers subsided, the puppet suddenly said:
"Xiao Ran, I read the news on the Internet this afternoon. It said that you found more than ten tons of gold in Tokyo. Is it true? This is too exaggerated!"
"If it's true, can you release some of the gold? Let's buy a few pieces and keep them. It's also an investment."
Following his words, there was another exclamation in the live broadcast room.
The next moment, Xiao Ran gave a positive answer.
"The discovery of more than ten tons of gold is indeed true. This batch of gold has been shipped back to Beijing and deposited in a bank vault."
"As for auctioning gold in the live broadcast room, forget it. The gold you buy from me is no different from the gold you buy in the bank."
"In this case, why bother? If you want to buy gold for your collection, just go to a big bank and buy gold bars."
After hearing this explanation, those fans who were clamoring to buy gold reacted.
Everyone was amazed when they learned that Xiao Ran had taken away more than ten tons of gold from Tokyo in one go.
At the same time, everyone feels a sense of revenge.
