After sitting in the car, Joanna said in shock:
"It surprised me that……"
"You don't come here often." Zhu Yu said with a smile while driving. "Otherwise, you wouldn't have known there would be such a mess here."
"I just heard from my classmates that I have never been here..." Joanna really has never been here.
"It's okay, it's good to experience it." Zhu Yu smiled, "It's quite exciting."
"It's better not to go there in the future." Joanna persuaded Zhu Yu, "It's too unsafe!"
"That's fine." Zhu Yu actually didn't like such noisy places. Just get to know it.
Before the car arrived at the villa, Zhu Yu's cell phone rang.
Zhu Yu took a look and found that this was Smith's number.
He pulled over to the side of the road and answered the phone.
"Mr. Zhu Yu, I didn't disturb your rest, right?"
Smith spoke politely.
"No. There must be something going on when you call so late, right, Mr. Smith?"
"Yes, you guessed it right." Smith said, "I heard that you recently obtained a large number of ancient gold coins from the seabed?"
"Yes." Smith was able to get this news, which was unexpected by Zhu Yu.
"A wealthy businessman plans to build a pirate museum and wants to buy this gold coin. Do you have this intention?"
Zhu Yu didn't expect that a buyer would come, but he thought about it and said:
"Of course I hope to sell it, but it must be at a suitable price. In addition, this batch of gold coins is quite large mathematically. I don't know if the other party can eat it."
"To use a Chinese idiom, the more the other party asks for, the better."
"Can you eat 300,000 pieces?" Zhu Yu said a number.
Smith choked, so much!
He hesitated for a moment, but finally refused to make a decision for others and said:
"Then I need to make a call and ask. By the way, what shape is this gold coin in?"
Zhu Yu said, "I'll take a photo and send it to you."
"OK."
Zhu Yu took out a gold coin from his pocket, put it in his hand, took a photo and sent it.
"Is this the gold coin you got this time?"
"Yes." Zhu Yu put the gold coin in Joanna's hand and continued driving.
After returning to the villa, Smith called and said:
"The other party said that if they were gold coins of this size, he could still afford to collect 300,000 gold coins."
"The rich man also said that if there are other items related to pirates, he will also accept them. But they must be older."
"Okay, I'll go to your store to discuss it with you tomorrow."
After an afternoon of tossing and jumping around at night, Joanna only lasted one round on the bed before falling asleep.
Zhu Yu didn't want to torment her anymore, so he had to take a cold shower and sleep.
The next day, Joanna rested in the villa, and Zhu Yu went to Smith's shopping mall.
The economy is in recession, so many people come to sell second-hand goods.
When Zhu Yu arrived, Smith was looking at an ancient jewelry box brought by an old lady.
Seeing Zhu Yu, Smith nodded and apologized to the old lady. Then he stretched out his hand to call a waiter and let him see the jewelry box in the old lady's hand, while he took Zhu Yu into the inner room.
….
After entering, Zhu Yu took out a handful of gold coins and placed them on the table.
Indeed, just a handful.
The gold coin is irregularly round, and the surface pattern is also a rough head of a man wearing a crown.
Smith picked up one, looked at it and said:
"This kind of rough-looking gold coin was a common phenomenon in that era. Basically, gold was made into a gold rod, and then cut and engraved with patterns, so it was very irregular."
After speaking, he took out a small electronic scale and placed the gold coins on it.
Zhu Yu saw the number 5.1 grams displayed on it.
The average is about five grams.
It's about the same size as an adult's thumbnail, and certainly not heavy.
"In terms of weight, three hundred thousand coins is almost 1.5 tons." Smith said, "Of course, antique gold coins cannot be calculated based on the current price of gold.
It's just that the amount is a bit huge, so one piece...five hundred dollars. "
If you look at the price of gold, that one is almost over three hundred US dollars.
Of course, the gold content of this gold coin cannot reach that purity.
But this is an antique gold coin after all, and Zhu Yu feels that a five hundred gold coin is a bit missing.
"At least one thousand US dollars." Zhu Yu counter-offered.
"Impossible." Smith shook his head. "You can buy a gold coin of the same period in better condition for a thousand dollars. A maximum of six hundred dollars."
"If you really want to build a museum, you will definitely need a lot of gold coins." Zhu Yu said, "Even if you can buy minted gold coins, the amount is too small!
Since it is a pirate museum, can the money in it be less? Do you know the museum in Haihunhou that is quite popular in China recently? Ancient coins were placed in wheel tons!
I am the only one who can find such a large amount right now, so this gold coin is worth at least nine hundred US dollars! "
Zhu Yu didn't say that the tons of copper coins were there, but to be honest, there was a lot of gold in the museum of Haihunhou's tomb, and they were all big.
"It can't be that high." Smith didn't know who Haihunhou was, but since Zhu Yu said it, it was probably true.
The rich people in ancient China were really rich!
Of course, this has nothing to do with today's matter, he continued:
"The authority I can give is only so high, up to six hundred and fifty dollars!"
Both parties were looking for basis for their prices, and after a long period of back and forth, the deal was finally settled at US$780.
Three hundred thousand gold coins, each worth US$7800, the final transaction price was US$234 million!
More than a dozen small goals achieved!
Zhu Yu was very happy. Although this mission went through many hardships, it was worth it in the end.
After the negotiation was completed, Smith showed a smile on his face, and then asked Zhu Yu in a low voice:
"Mr. Zhu, I heard that there is a sacred object from the Mayan tribe in the treasure this time. I don't know..."
"Indeed, but that thing is very..." Zhu Yu thought about it and said, "anti-evolution. So I don't think anyone will collect it."
Anti-evolution?
Hearing this sentence, Smith's eyes lit up. It is human nature to seek novelties. We have seen too many ordinary ones. Only the abnormal ones are worth collecting!
"Can you let me see it?"
"After the deal is concluded, I will show it to you," Zhu Yu said.
….
The two parties agreed on the time and place for the transaction, which was at the cargo yard of the New York port.
With transactions involving hundreds of millions of dollars, both parties are very cautious. Fortunately, with Smith as a middleman, the deal was easily reached.
Zhu Yu said goodbye and left, while Smith called Fuhao to report the situation.
The rich man planned to acquire 300,000 antique gold coins for about 250 to 300 million. Unexpectedly, Smith talked about 234 million. He was very happy and gave Smith a generous bonus. .
The next day, Zhu Yu arrived at the port and found Jason.
When Jason saw Zhu Yu appear, he screamed excitedly and ran over. If Zhu Yu hadn't waved his hand, he would have really planned to step forward and hug his boss.
Zhu Yu patted him and said:
"how are things?"
They've been out for less than a month, and things haven't really changed much.
But Jason shook his head and said:
"Recently, a very powerful treasure hunter came here. He always picked the most valuable container, which made other people very dissatisfied."
"What does that have to do with our business? Wouldn't it be great to have people like this exist?"
"It's not that...he did attract a lot of people to come and bid for containers in our warehouse. But this young man sounded very crazy. I heard that boss you were very lucky in the past. After you won many good things through bidding, he said that he would make time to talk to you. Bibi."
Zhu Yu smiled, he was worth hundreds of thousands a minute, how could he have time to compete with this kid?
"Don't worry about him. By the way, find an empty container, a longer one, and then find a reliable driver to drive it to my villa."
"Okay, no problem." Jason was a little disappointed when Zhu Yu didn't mention the topic of the battle, but he still completed the task arranged by Zhu Yu neatly.
The long container truck drove to Zhu Yu's villa. Zhu Yu sent the driver away and called Ran Jie and the others to come over.
In the process, he transferred a hundred boxes of gold coins from space to the container.
When Ran Jie and three others came over, Zhu Yu said to them: "Two people went into the container to guard it, and one person sat in the passenger seat. They all put their guns in place." Then he called driver Xiao Hei to drive to the cargo yard again.
Guessing that there must be something important in the container, all three of them were carrying guns.
Fortunately, there were no accidents along the way and we arrived at the goods yard safely.
Smith took people to the goods yard half an hour later, and then the two parties traded.
It takes a very long time, mainly because counting is a waste of time. Both parties were relatively cautious. Although Smith acted as an intermediary to adjust the atmosphere, the rich man's agent, a middle-aged white man, was basically nervous and unsmiling.
It wasn't until it was almost dark and the gold coins were counted that the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.
After transferring the money, the middle-aged man led a team of security personnel to escort the car away. Zhu Yu called Smith to another container, took out the stone box and said to him:
"I hope you won't scream after seeing it."
Then he took out the crystal with the hand bone.
"Oh my God!" As expected, Smith exclaimed when he saw the hand bones embedded in crystal in the stone box.
He is an expert, so he can naturally tell that this is a natural crystal, not artificial.
….
The problem is that it takes tens of millions of years to form natural crystals, and the temperature and pressure are there. How could there be human hand bones in them?
This is not only anti-evolution, but also anti-science and anti-humanity!
But the scream was a scream, and Smith naturally knew that this thing would definitely be regarded as a priceless treasure in the eyes of a caring person.
No less valuable than those gold coins!
"Is this thing for sale?" Smith asked.
"Of course, as long as the price is right." Zhu Yu smiled and put the crystal away.
Well, Smith knew he couldn't afford it.
However, if you find a suitable buyer, you can earn a large commission!
After Smith left, Zhu Yu felt refreshed and made another huge sum today!
Went to meet John at the Seven Axes pub.
John still looked the same, wiping his wine glass with a towel behind the counter. But Zhu Yu obviously noticed that the old man was a little more old-fashioned.
Zhu Yu suddenly found that he was a little ashamed of this old man.
Seeing that there were few people in the bar, he simply went to the back and took out a star scepter, then walked back to the counter and whispered to John:
"Old John, come here, take a look at this thing, don't let others see it."
Old John rarely saw Zhu Yu enter the counter. He was curious to ask, but when he heard what Zhu Yu said, he stopped talking.
He was a little surprised when he saw the scepter made of gold. He stretched out his hand and touched it, and immediately felt the wonderful energy spread into his body.
At first, John was a little worried and withdrew his hand cautiously.
Looking up at Zhu Yu, he found that he was looking at him with a smile. Since it felt very comfortable, John reached out and touched the scepter again.
The comfortable feeling lasted for a while before disappearing.
"Zhu, you made me feel the existence of God today!" John waited for Zhu Yu to put away his scepter and said with emotion, "I never knew that there was such a thing in the world.
Of course there is such a thing...it's not medicine, right? "
"No, you can understand it as a kind of energy." Zhu Yu said with a smile.
He didn't explain much, and John would know the benefits of this energy tomorrow.
Old John has been helping him. Although he claims to have made money from it, no matter what, Zhu Yu has been able to develop to the present point. Apart from Tianyan, John has helped him the most.
"If you have something to do, go ahead and do your work. If you have nothing else, you can come over and chat with me and tell me about your treasure hunting experience." John saw Zhu Yu deep in thought and said.
What he just experienced didn't feel like a big deal to him. Having lived for more than sixty years and experienced too much, he didn't think Zhu Yu would harm him.
"Just in time to talk about this treasure hunting experience." Zhu Yu sat down in front of the counter without anything else to do.
He just saw that there were a few old guys missing in the bar.
I don’t know if I can’t come out, if I’m no longer alive, or if I’m doing other things.
In short, it was a lot quieter. I guess Old John would also feel lonely.
Old John poured Zhu Yu a glass of whiskey and asked him to drink and talk.
Zhu Yu's treasure hunting experience was quite exciting, especially the groups of killers and thieves he met later, which made John very fascinated.
Zhu Yu was thinking, Old John's life when he was young must have been exciting, right?
It was very late. After having a few glasses of wine, Zhu Yu was sent back to the old villa by Ran Jie. Cathy greeted him at the door.
Ran Jie left, and Cathy gave Zhu Yu sobering soup and fruit.
Zhu Yu thought of Cathy's connections and asked:
"Cathy, do you know any rich man who likes to collect anti-evolution things?"
"Anti-evolution?" Cathy was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Sir, are you talking about the kind of cultural relics that are not in line with the theory of evolution? Indeed, there are."
"I have something here," Zhu Yu thought for a while, but now that it was unreasonable to suddenly take out the stone box, he said, "I will forward the photo to you later, and you can help me find this kind of person."
Cathy nodded.
Zhu Yu turned on his phone and sent the photo he took of the crystal hand bones.
Cathy was also shocked when she received it.
She was no amateur, and she could tell at a glance that the thing didn't look man-made!
"Sir, is it genuine? Is the thing in your hand?"
"Yes, it is said to be a sacred object of a Mayan tribe." Zhu Yu explained.
Cathy nodded and said seriously:
"I understand, I will contact someone tomorrow."
Well, that’s a good attitude!
