"Take more photos then."
I thought about it and said, "This way they can have a better understanding of the structure inside."
"It can only be the."
Li Jinming nodded slightly as he spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone coming in.
Li Jinming and I remained silent for a while, pretending that no one was here.
"Hello? An ancient tomb was discovered in Jingjiang?"
"what's the situation?"
It was Hu Jianjun's voice, and his tone was very surprised.
"I didn't even get the news, how did you know?"
"What? Plum bottle?"
"Okay, I'll go after I go back and take a rest."
Hu Jianjun's voice was impatient and he quickly hung up the phone.
He stayed in the toilet for a while. Li Jinming and I waited until Hu Jianjun went out, then slowly left the toilet.
However, what Hu Jianjun said on the phone about the discovery of ancient tombs in Jingjiang gave me a vague hunch that this was the opportunity to finally bring down Liu Qingzhong.
With this in mind, I returned to the hall to continue eating and drinking.
There are not many activities on the boat, just playing cards and games.
The rest of the time is spent sleeping.
After more than two days of sailing, I finally managed to see a hint of the island on the deck.
What I can see most clearly is a relatively large island. Looking through a telescope, I can see that the island itself is not very large. It is just expanded by some pontoons or floating boards.
There are several small islands on the side, and I can see that they are all connected to each other by boats or bridges.
There are four islands in total, and I can see that the various military facilities on them are very tight.
It even gave me a fortress feel.
Not long after, the boat stopped and after anchoring, a few of us took a small boat to the pier of the island.
The pier is also a floating island, and it shakes a little when you step on it, just like you are on a boat.
"How about it?"
After taking the three of us to the island, Hu Jianjun smiled and said, "Is the construction pretty good?"
Looking closer, almost all the land on the island has been "renovated", and you can even see vegetable greenhouses and some open fields.
"This... I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money!"
I frowned slightly, "Just by smuggling with Secretary Liu...how can we have so many?"
"I'm not just doing business with Liu Qingzhong."
Hu Jianjun slowly explained, "There is still a lot of cooperation overseas, because we have to pass through the Suez Canal, and I have to increase arms protection..."
As he spoke, he sighed and said, "It's kind of like smuggling wool. Those foreign organizations are even scrambling to increase prices in order to book my goods first."
This disguise also shows that his "business is good".
"By the way, I heard that an ancient tomb was discovered over there in Jingjiang."
Hu Jianjun unabashedly said what he heard on the phone two days ago - he trusts me.
But I saw something different in her eyes - he seemed to want something.
"I haven't heard of it."
I shook my head slightly as I said, "It probably happened in the past two days. We were just playing on the boat and didn't watch much news."
With that said, we walked inside.
Hu Jianjun's hideout is indeed well built, and I can even see many foreign faces inside.
"These……"
"These are refugees from foreign countries. They were brought here to help me with agriculture. I can't rely on external supplies for these small islands, right?"
Hu Jianjun smiled and explained, "I'll take you to a resting place first and have a meal!"
"After a long journey, you always need a rest..."
He patted me on the shoulder, as if he meant something else.
Soon Su Yu and Li Jinming were taken to the room prepared for them, and I was taken by Hu Jianjun himself.
My room is at the end of the corridor, and I can see the sea view from here, while Su Yu and Li Jinming's rooms are arranged near the stairwell, which is convenient for them to go up and downstairs.
"Shen Fan, I have something to tell you."
Hu Jianjun said with a wave of his hand, dismissing the people behind him.
"You say."
I closed the door and leaned against the window and spoke slowly.
"Didn't I tell you when we came ashore that a new ancient tomb was discovered in Jingjiang?"
Just as I thought, it was the so-called "Plum Vase" I heard on the phone.
"I still want to confirm this news."
I nodded slightly.
"It seems that among the things excavated there is something called a plum bottle. Can you think of a way to get it for me?"
Hu Jianjun slowly said, "There is a buyer in France who is willing to pay 30 million euros."
"How much do you want, just ask."
Seeing my surprised expression, he said slowly, "It's not that I can't accept it."
I finally understood what he was planning.
He was not familiar with Jingjiang. From Jingjiang to Hezhou and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he probably only did more business with Liu Qingzhong.
"It's not about money, it's about whether you have it or not."
"I need confirmation."
I slowly said, "If there is any, I have to find a way. After all, Jingjiang is not as good as Hezhou."
"Okay, please confirm it first."
"Let's settle the money first."
Hu Jianjun had a private deal with me.
"I'm not sure. Besides, even if you want to take it away, wouldn't it be better if you talk to Secretary Liu first?"
I moved Secretary Liu out and showed him that I was working under Liu Qingzhong.
"Liu Qingzhong?"
"Hahaha, do you really plan to work for Liu Qingzhong for the rest of your life?"
Hu Jianjun showed a joking smile and said, "This is my territory. Whatever you want to say is fine. I don't have to tell Liu Qingzhong."
In an instant, the situation became clear.
Hu Jianjun wanted to bypass Liu Qingzhong and get the so-called plum vase directly from me.
"It's true, but how do you see it?"
I nodded slightly and my face became serious.
"Last time I saw you, you just worked for Liu Qingzhong. In just over half a year, you have become Liu Qingzhong's confidant..."
"With this speed of promotion, I feel like you want to do something!"
As expected, bystanders know everything but the authorities are confused.
If Liu Qingzhong could jump out of the whole thing and think about it carefully, he might come to the same conclusion as Hu Jianjun - unfortunately, Liu Qingzhong has been brought into rhythm by me, and he will think there is no problem in anything I do!
"Thirty million euros, right? In exchange for our money, it would be..."
"Two hundred and ten million."
Hu Jianjun saw me like this and immediately spoke - from his point of view, I agreed.
Only if you agree will you discuss money.
"I now have a deposit of five million euros."
He continued, "How much deposit do you want?"
"one million."
I slowly said, "Give me a deposit of 1 million, and after the deal is completed, I will get another 90 million euros."
Of course, I know that there is no such thing as after it is done.
"happy!"
"One million, where do you want to put it?"
"Domestic or foreign?"
Seeing how happy I was, Hu Jianjun also started discussing how to get the "money".
