The Black Card - Chapter 897

[Chapter 895 How to get to know the Mayor of London]

In the end, Shi Lei reached an agreement with the damn scepter. This is why Shi Lei told Yao Keji that he had other things to do.

After the final bargaining, the week was reduced to three days. Next, all Shi Lei needed to think about was how to get the mayor of London to gather all the Scola family’s collections in one place and allow him to view them for three days. .

This is obviously not something easy to do.

Therefore, although Shi Lei is ready to work hard for this, he must also be prepared on both sides. If the task cannot be completed, Yao Keji may still be able to investigate some clues.

On the way to London, Shi Lei was still criticizing the damn scepter in his heart.

The so-called two-stage tasks, in fact, if you think about it carefully, they cannot be parallelized at all.

If he wanted to complete the so-called side task, that is, to buy the Monet painting in Scola’s hand, regardless of whether the other party was willing to take action or not, Shi Lei proposed to view all the artworks on the list given by the black card in the other party’s family for three days. , will undoubtedly make the other party feel extremely alert.

And if you want to complete the complete mission, if completed, the side mission will be meaningless.

If it fails to be completed, the next best thing is to buy the Monet painting. However, the other party will definitely feel that Shi Lei’s original and only purpose is actually the Monet painting.

For such a family, money can only be said to be a consumer product, not a necessity. They do not need to sell their collections in exchange for money.

Therefore, if the other party might sell the painting to Shi Lei, it would be for other reasons.

After going through this series of events, the other party would definitely feel that Shi Lei must have known the unknown secrets in Monet’s painting. His request to buy the painting was simply based on ignorance, and the possibility of agreeing was almost zero.

Therefore, this so-called side mission and the complete mission seemed to have no influence on each other. In fact, Shi Lei could only choose one.

Because of this, Shi Lei did not give up asking Yao Keji to help investigate. Regardless of whether the task here was completed, Yao Keji was not doing useless work.

And if the task cannot be completed and Yao Keji has an investigation result, it will be a matter of immeasurable merit.

Go hand in hand and give yourself one more choice, and you will never go wrong.

What’s more important is that if Yao Keji gets the result of his investigation, and that result satisfies Shi Lei, then it all depends on Shi Lei’s personal intention whether he should work hard to complete the task given by the black card.

When the plane arrived in London, Shi Lei found a hotel near the Thames River and checked in.

After he entered the room, he first calculated his remaining credit for this credit cycle.

After receiving the 100 million quota, he first paid back 5 million to Wei Qing, which was the final payment for Wu Dong’s villa.

Then 30 million was given to Ding Yu, which was consumption for non-revenue investments.

Twenty million is used to pay for the down payment of a house in the imperial capital, which is the consumption of the city copy.

After buying a car for Wei Xingyue, plus other odd purchases, as well as his expenses in Hong Kong Island and other places, the total consumption was less than five million.

This adds up to about 60 million.

Ten million was reserved, and Shi Lei believed that Yu Banzhi would be able to help him get a watch worth around ten million, which could be used as a collection.

Subsequently, Shi Lei stayed on the island for fifteen days, spending 620,000 yuan a day, and spending a total of 9.3 million yuan.

A chartered flight costs 400,000 yuan, and back and forth, Shi Lei used it seven times in the past fifteen days, totaling 2.8 million yuan.

Finally, in order to find the whereabouts of the ferryman, Shi Lei took out 1.5 million from the quota and paid it to Eye of the Dark Night.

In this quota cycle, if Shi Lei does not consider the 10 million collection consumption, he still has 16 to 7 million quota left to spend.

This quota cycle lasts for three months, and half of the time has passed. With one and a half months left, Shi Lei must complete the consumption of 16 to 7 million.

After calculating the amount in his hand, Shi Lei thought about it briefly and found that there were basically no mistakes.

Now, he no longer needs to use a pen to record consumption. With his current memory, if he wants, he can even recall every penny he has consumed. The saying that a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, this is true for him does not apply.

Sixteen to seven million may seem like a lot, but in fact it’s not much. After all, Shi Lei could just change his car and solve the problem.

Even if the Maserati Quattroporte was based on its original price, if Shi Lei bought another car worth 20 million, he would be able to finish the consumption of this quota cycle.

Not even enough.

So, this is not a big deal.

Especially now that he has come to London, he needs to deal with the mayor of London, and the expenses here will not be small.

However, Shi Lei needs to pay special attention. After all, only when the intimacy with a person reaches 60 points, can he invite him to eat and drink together. Otherwise, those expenses will be recorded on his personal bill and used his own funds. Make repayments.

The purpose of Shi Lei’s trip is to get what he wants from the Mayor of London. Therefore, his first task is to make friends with the Mayor of London. The intimacy level must reach 60 Above, or even higher, otherwise, how can you ask someone to view all the artworks owned by his family?

How to get to know the Mayor of London?

This is really a problem.

Of course, Shi Lei couldn’t think of any good idea. It would be a good idea to let Yao Keji introduce him on his behalf. Presumably, even if Yao Keji had never dealt with the mayor of London, he would always have dealt with someone in their family.

But if Yao Keji were to introduce him, it would inevitably seem a lot more formal. Seeing Shi Lei so young, the other party would definitely be wary of Shi Lei from the beginning.

No matter how big or small this wariness is, it may affect Shi Lei’s ultimate goal.

It must be done without showing any trace, and you must get to know the other party naturally, or know someone in the other party’s family, and then show up on an appropriate occasion and climb the line of becoming the Mayor of London.

After thinking hard for a long time, Shi Lei decided to put it aside for the time being. Since the black card has released this task, according to past experience, it will have some impact on Shi Lei’s itinerary from a macro perspective. Now Shi Lei is thinking hard about the unsolved problem, maybe he can go out casually It can be solved by wandering around.

Heika always has the ability to let Shi Lei get to know the mayor of London in a way that he didn’t expect.

First, he called Wei Puti. Shi Lei said that he was in London and hoped to meet Wei Puti.

Since the conversation with the ferryman that night, Shi Lei knew that the headquarters of the Eyes of Darkness was most likely located in the UK, and should be in London.

Wei Puti expressed surprise at this. She said: “Why did you come to London? Do you know…?” The following words were not said, but the meaning was obvious. Wei Puti felt that Shi Lei might have known about the Eye of the Night headquarters. s position.

“I’m not sure. The ferryman’s words seemed to indicate that your headquarters is in London. But as soon as you said this today, I was completely sure.” “Why are

you here at our headquarters?” Wei Boti was still a little confused. Nervous, after all, she also had a certain responsibility for letting Shi Lei know about this.

“Don’t worry, I came to London for another purpose, and I just came to see you by the way.” Shi Lei said.
