From Lin Hao's point of view, signing this statement is absolutely absurd, if you don't have to share the responsibility, why should the master sell it to you cheaply?

However, if you think about it from another angle, it seems understandable that Sotheby's auction house wants a disclaimer, after all, this thing is too risky to be a trick......

No matter what, Lin Hao will definitely not sign it, it's a big deal to find a new buyer, anyway, there is no need to worry about sales. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info So return the disclaimer and answer indifferently:

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Charles, it's impossible for me to sign the disclaimer, five billion yuan, which is equivalent to less than nine billion US dollars, and we don't take the risk!"

"Mr. Lin, signing the disclaimer is the reason why the auction house avoids risks, and there is no other meaning, we will never deliberately defraud, you can rest assured!"

Charles is not surprised, if Lin Hao really signed, it would be abnormal! A huge contract trap, as long as the other party is in his right mind, it is impossible to agree.

They just wanted to test what the other party's reaction was, and if it was really easy to deceive, why not? Charles had just guessed that Lin Hao could not be fooled.

As soon as people come up, they have to check the letter of credit, and it is obvious that they are prepared, and this kind of low-level routine is impossible to fool and succeed, and the temptation is a pure waste of expression.

"Hmph, what do you think, I don't know and I'm not interested in knowing, if you don't want to trade, let's go back to our respective homes as soon as possible, it's not safe to spend the night at sea!"

Lin Hao was very unhappy and unhappy, these people dared to fool themselves, and they were really not honest. There was a hint of threat in his words, his tone was unkind, and his face was cold.

Charles hurriedly waved his hand and apologized to Lin Hao, arguing that he had no other ideas, hoping that he would not mind, the sculpture must be purchased today, which is an order from the group headquarters.

Sotheby's major shareholders jointly raised $900 million to buy Michelangelo's sculptures, and if they were messed up, the consequences would be very serious, and Charles would have to roll up and leave.

"Okay, Mr. Lin, don't sign a disclaimer! But you must sign a guarantee to prove that it was not obtained by stealing, robbing, etc., how do you feel?"

"No problem, acceptable, this is very reasonable!"

Lin Hao agreed, reached a preliminary agreement, went back to the fishing boat and asked Boss Ma to help, and used a crane to lift the safe to the back deck of the luxury yacht, open it for them to inspect.

A bunch of appraisers, auctioneers, and technicians surrounded the sculpture in amazement, all kinds of jaw-dropping, ecstatic witnesses to the birth of a national treasure artwork!

Michelangelo's masterpiece in his later years! It is inconceivable to think that it is worth at least about a billion dollars, and it is very strange to feel that China has mysteriously appeared.

After a lot of identification, testing, and experiments, it must be Michelangelo's genuine, and the carving style, detail processing, and element testing results all show that the authenticity is undoubted.

Charles can't wait, do this well, he can return to the UK, get a promotion and a salary increase, and the future will definitely be very bright. He hurriedly urged:

"Mr. Lin, let's sign and pay immediately. ”

"OK no problem, happy cooperation!"

Lin Hao nodded in agreement, signed the contract, took away the bill of goods and the bank letter of credit, and the sculpture belonged to Sotheby's, and he got five billion dollars, nearly nine billion dollars!

Although there are 900 million US dollars in the letter of credit, the transaction amount is only 5 billion yuan, and the amount that can be withdrawn is, of course, more than 800 million US dollars, with no taxes and no handling fees.

After the transaction was completed, Lin Hao was ready to leave, he didn't want to continue to deal with Sotheby's, there were too many routines, and he was afraid that one day he would be fooled by them.

However, he was retained by Charles and asked how the harvest of the wreck salvage was, but he had not completed the task yet, so he couldn't go back directly. Sotheby's ...... to these babes

Very, very interested!

"Mr. Lin, if your company still has such precious antiques in the future, you can sell them to our Sotheby's, and the price will definitely not be too low, and you can participate in the auction. ”

"Yes, but it depends on the situation, if the price and safety can be guaranteed, there is no problem with cooperation. The premise is not to think about cheating, to do any small actions!"

Lin Hao thought about it and replied meaningfully. If you cooperate with Sotheby's, there will be a lot less trouble, and you don't have to worry about so many things, and you will definitely be easier.

Charles smiled, knowing that Lin Hao meant the disclaimer just now, which seemed to be very ordinary, but if he signed it, the consequences would be very serious and deceptive......

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Lin, it was just an accident, I promise it won't happen again in the future!

"Wait a minute, I'll show you something, right away~~"

Lin Hao interrupted Charles, go back to get something, the so-called hearing is false, seeing is believing, no matter what you say, it is better to see it with your own eyes, the treasure map is the most convincing!

He is not afraid of being found treasure, they don't have the strength to salvage the wreck in a short time, and Squidward is fast, he can go deep into the Caribbean Sea at any time and destroy the wreck in minutes.

Back at the fishing boat, Lin Hao handed over the bank letter of credit to his wife for safekeeping, and then took the iron box and climbed onto the luxury yacht to let Charles and them pay attention.

"Don't worry, who knows Spanish, I'll show you a few letter drawings and read them first. Lin Hao pretended to be profound, and calmly took out a letter.

In Charles's opinion, the content of these letters should be very well-written, and an expert should come over and translate them. What kind of secret can Lin Hao and them value?

In fact, Lin Hao didn't even know that he was paying attention to these suspected treasure maps, wasn't it just to make a fortune? Let you be a free translator......

A white-bearded old man, pushing his reading glasses, lying on the table and reading carefully, very serious and serious, soon with a surprised and shocked expression on his face, finally replied:

"fuck~ You would never guess that this sculpture was stolen by a Spanish missionary in Florence!"

"The letter says that in order to steal this treasure, this damned missionary, sent it to the Spanish Navy, was assigned by the royal family, and fled to Mexico......"

"If you come back, there will be no more, it should be a shipwreck!"

Everyone was stunned, Charles was dumbfounded, and finally figured out why Lin Hao was not afraid, that is, Spain knew that the sculpture came from a warship wreck, so he still didn't dare to pursue it!

The royal family sent missionaries to steal Italian treasures, and it was a scandal that caused a sensation in the world, even if hundreds of years have passed, so that it will be ridiculed and disgraced internationally......

Because of this, this letter is very valuable, and when paired with a bronze sculpture, it is of great significance!
