The Black Card - Chapter 1199

[Chapter 1197: Dealing with collection consumption]

Shi Lei raised his head and looked at Mr. Zheng, with an indescribable complex emotion in his eyes.

“Mr. Zheng, you are…this thing is a bit troublesome.” Shi Lei told the truth.

Mr. Zheng nodded and said: “Of course I understand this, but this kind of trouble is faced at the national level. As a private collection, it is not a big deal. I have consulted Director Zhang in detail on this point. “

After that, Mr. Zheng looked at Director Zhang again.

Director Zhang also said: “Mr. Shi, Mr. Zheng is right. For the French, the symbolic significance of this crown is far greater than its substantive significance. The crown of the last emperor can be said to be a historical witness.” .So, if our country’s cultural department comes to collect this crown, I’m afraid there will be big problems. But this crown was not stolen by us, and it has been a long time since it was stolen. During this period, abroad There have also been reports that the crown has changed hands several times. The French are helpless about this. After all, unless it can be proven that the current owner of the crown is the person who stole the crown, even the French government will It is impossible to ask the collector to return it. Therefore, as a private collection, there is no problem.”

Shi Lei nodded, this makes sense, and since the crown has been reported to have changed hands several times, it was stolen back then. The person holding the crown has long since passed away.

No matter how unreasonable the French are, they cannot openly rob them.

He looked at Mr. Zheng and said, “What do you mean by Mr. Zheng now?”

Mr. Zheng looked a little confused and said, “Logically speaking, this is a trouble, and I shouldn’t make excessive demands. But …Oh, let me tell the truth. Quanzi has lived in France for a long time and is also a businessman. I bought this crown when I went to visit Quanzi, and then I tried every means to transport it back to China. And Quanzi has been doing business in the past two years. It’s really difficult. A large part of the reason why I sold my old house and went to France was because of Quanzi…”

Shi Lei smiled and said, “Don’t tell me so much about Mr. Zheng’s family affairs, Zheng. Mr. Zheng wants to show off this crown?”

Mr. Zheng sighed, and Director Zhang quickly helped: “Originally, Mr. Zheng thought that by selling the old house, he would be able to help his young master solve his urgent needs. So he initially wanted to donate the crown to our cultural department free of charge. It just so happened that after research, we thought it was not appropriate to collect the crown in the name of the government, and Mr. Zheng’s son also expressed that he The funds are still missing a part. Therefore, Mr. Zheng thought that if this crown can help him, it will be the best of both worlds.”

Shi Lei nodded slightly and asked: “How much money does Mr. Zheng plan to spend?”

Mr. Zheng The husband quickly waved his hand and said: “I don’t dare to ask for too much, and I don’t want Mr. Shi to accept this thing. After getting to know Mr. Shi, I think Mr. Shi is a person worthy of entrustment. I just think, if Mr. Shi It would be great if you can help find someone in your circle to take over this crown.” “

Let’s just talk about the price. Since Director Zhang said that private collection should not cause any trouble, I personally do. I prefer collecting this kind of things. It doesn’t make any difference to Mr. Zheng whether I collect it or someone else collects it. Don’t you think so?” Mr. Zheng

seemed a little stunned and couldn’t speak. Director Zhang had no choice but to sigh. Said: “Mr. Zheng’s son, the funding gap is about 1.2 million euros.”

Shi Lei calculated silently. According to the current exchange rate, 1.2 million euros, more than 9 million soft girl coins.

For Shi Lei, this was simply a matter of helping him collect money for collection, and of course he had no reason to refuse.

“That’s more than 9 million soft girl coins, right?”

“To be honest, I bought this crown with 12 million soft girl coins. If Mr. Shi is really interested, 10 million , let’s round up the whole number, and I’ll give it to Mr. Shi.”

Shi Lei nodded and said, “Then let me take a look first?”

Mr. Zheng quickly stretched out his hand and said, “Mr. Shi, please.”

Shi Lei picked up the The crown called up the appraisal card in his mind and used the authority once. Then, the crown in his hand suddenly glowed with a hazy light.

The color is light blue, very clear, and the brilliance alone is pleasing to the eye.

In the brilliance, Shi Lei also understood the value of this crown.

This is obviously the value set by the black card. Shi Lei only needs to judge whether this thing exceeds 10 million soft girl coins.

The value of the crown set by the black card is about 18 million.

Of course it wouldn’t be a clear number, it was just a rough value range that Shi Lei judged through the hazy light blue radiance on the crown’s surface.

This means that Shi Lei must have made a profit by buying this crown with 10 million.

And as long as it meets the price paid, or is higher than the price paid, the black card side will definitely be able to approve this collection consumption.

Shi Lei held the crown in his hand and looked at it for a long time. It wasn’t that he really liked this thing, but it would be a bit unreasonable to pick it up and put it down after just one look.

After more than ten minutes, Shi Lei finally put down the crown and said: “Although I can’t be sure whether this crown is the one owned by Louis Philippe, but judging from the quality, craftsmanship, etc., the value of this thing is At least it’s more than fifteen million.”

Mr. Zheng waved his hands quickly and said in a panic: “I don’t dare to ask for that much. I don’t expect this thing to help me make money. If it weren’t for Quanzi…sigh… I even wanted to entrust this thing to Mr. Shi for free.”

Director Zhang nodded and said: “I can vouch for Mr. Zheng on this point.”

Shi Lei waved his hand with a smile and said, “Mr. Zheng and I Although this is only the second time we have met, I am confident that I have some understanding of what kind of person Mr. Zheng is. He said that, of course I believe that Director Zhang, you don’t have to be like this. So I am taking advantage of him. Since you said 10 million, then I will close the deal with 10 million.”

Mr. Zheng was stunned. He did not expect that Shi Lei would agree to take over the crown so simply. He looked at Shi Lei in disbelief and said with a slightly trembling voice. :”real?”

Shi Lei smiled and put the crown into the box, then took out his cell phone and prepared to call the bank to ask them to prepare it.

“I have to ask Mr. Zheng to go to the bank with me. I’ll make a call. It should be ready soon, and then you can make the payment on the spot. How about it?”

Mr. Zheng waved his hand and said, “I know Shi My husband also has business overseas, so it would be best if the money could be transferred from abroad.”

Shi Lei understood that it would be troublesome to transfer such a large amount of domestic cash abroad.

So, he called Yao Keji. Of course there would be no problem there, and he immediately said that he could help him settle the bill at any time.

After asking for Mr. Zheng’s son’s account, Shi Lei handed it over to Yao Keji.
