"We cannot use today's civilized standards to criticize the mistakes of the past. Even now, the stronger prevails." The speaker was a man in his forties with slightly curly hair, small eyes and a big nose.
"You have to be strong enough before others will reason with you."
"Oh, that's right." Xu Chuan walked in from the outside. It seemed to be a studio with various painting tools and unfinished paintings.
Everyone turned their heads and looked at him curiously. The fair-haired Countess Catherine came over and asked politely, "Sir, how did you get in?"
The entire castle is guarded by security personnel hired by the bank, but it is not so much to prevent people from outside from coming in, but more to prevent someone from taking things out. Even so, if anyone wants to come in, they still need their permission.
"Hello, Ms. Catherine." Xu Chuan smiled at her, turned to look at the other people, and felt a big hole in his heart that he didn't know how to spit out.
"Well, I'm sorry to disturb you, but my time is limited and I need to start working right away." He waved to the outside, and a group of people wearing work clothes walked in.
Seeing these people moving the items out of the house one by one, Catherine hurriedly wanted to stop them, "Stop, where do you want to take my grandfather's paintings?" Three other men and two women also gathered around.
come over.
Xu Chuan stopped her, "Sorry ma'am, I regret to tell you that these rags now belong to me." He signaled to Curtis and Albert who wanted to come over not to be nervous. He was in a good mood recently.
People's small actions can't irritate him.
"What? This is impossible." Catherine exclaimed with her eyes widened.
"Nothing is impossible, ma'am." The bank representative walked in, with the secretary beside him holding a pile of documents.
"Mr. Grylls has indeed bought some of the assets here." He took the document from the secretary and showed it in front of Catherine.
"Really?" Several people looked at the document in his hand. They couldn't understand the French on it. These people had just decided to steal the chicken head, but they didn't expect this to happen.
"I think it's true." Catherine replied depressedly. She took the document and read it twice. It was written very clearly.
Xu Chuan looked at the big nose in front of him and smiled, "JA, the Asian flying eagle, I have admired it for a long time."
Jackie Chan, no, the man named Jack was very surprised that the young man in front of him actually knew him, "No, you got the wrong person, my name is Martin."
"Heh." Xu Chuan made a gesture of invitation, and the two of them walked to the lawn outside the house. Well, there was no furniture, so in case of a fight, the chances of winning were higher.
"I know who you are, and I also know why you are here. You are responsible for what happened to Count Masu's family." Xu Chuan revealed his background without hesitation, "Adventurer, treasure hunter,
You're best at hunting for treasures in other people's homes, right?"
A staff member hired by Xu Chuan came over, holding a red copper chicken head in his hand. Xu Chuan stopped it and picked it up, "Is this what you are doing? MP Company hired you?"
Although Jack was already over 40 years old and the city was quite deep, his face still turned red and white at Xu Chuan's words. They had just been treasure hunting at Count Masu's house two days ago and found a lot of things, including rat heads and
Rabbit head, Pharaoh's scepter and Star of Arabia, as well as an original painting by Van Gogh.
Xu Chuan took half a step back, took the copper head and threw it twice in his hand, "If you were in China, believe me, it will definitely be enough for one peanut."
Jack's face was very ugly, but he still pulled out a smile, "Ha, you really got the wrong person. My name is Shangguan Martin, and I am a reporter from National Geographic Magazine."
"Isn't your name Martin Shangguan?" A Chinese girl in a brown coat ran over, snatched the animal head from Xu Chuan's hand, and stared at a pair of bright eyes, "Are you crazy? This is a cultural relic.
, you should at least wear gloves."
Xu Chuan looked at this slightly reckless girl and wondered if she had lost her mind in studying, "Madam, this is mine."
"I know it's yours, but you need to at least respect it a little bit. It represents a period of history and culture...", the female Ph.D. in archeology named COCO began to talk like a Tang monk.
When she was about to popularize the history of the Second Opium War to Xu Chuan, Xu Chuan stopped her and said, "OKOKOK, I respect it, and I will respect it now." She took the animal head from Coco's hand and said,
He handed it to the waiting staff member respectfully.
He quickly asked people to pack the things into boxes, but the pretense was very unsuccessful.
"Okay, Mr. Martin." Xu Chuan sighed, "I think you understand what I mean, so can I ask you to leave now?"
"No, no, they are friends I invited. You have no right to drive them away." Catherine came over, "I read the documents and you didn't buy the castle, so you have no right to drive them away from my house."
Let them go."
He had been speaking Chinese just now, and Catherine could understand it because of Jack's companions.
Xu Chuan looked this woman up and down. She had been educated by aristocrats since she was a child, and her appearance, speech and behavior had a unique charm. Xu Chuan nodded, "You are right."
He turned to look at Jack and said, "Then I wish you a happy time."
He turned around and left, thinking to himself, "I've given you a chance. If you die, don't blame me."
COCO followed. She was only concerned about the whereabouts of these cultural relics. "Are you Chinese? Are you going to transport these cultural relics back to China?..."
"Yes, I will transport these things back to the country. If you are interested, you can help." If it were anyone else, facing this kind of obviously taking advantage, they would definitely spit in his face, but this girl did.
Very happy, "Really? Thank you."
After saying that, he turned around and ignored Xu Chuan and ran towards the staff, "You can't let it go like this, it will break..."
Xu Chuan let out a sigh of relief, this girl is really annoying.
On the other side, Catherine was complaining, "They moved away the oil paintings painted by my great-great-grandfather. That was the surrounding environment after the destruction of the Invincible."
The foursome came together and a young man named Simon asked, "Jack, what now?"
"Stay here for two days and wait for the opportunity. They can't move out so quickly. It's not like moving." A greasy man with a mustache analyzed.
"No, after they pack the boxes, they must transport them away in batches. They can't be piled here."
"Then what should I do? There is not enough time and there is no way to change the package."
