Chapter 757: The Harriman Family
……
New York is arguably the most prosperous business center in the world, and Airbus naturally has a branch here, so after a phone call from Del Roosevelt, it didn't take long for Airbus's service staff to come to the door.
In this special period, Airbus's service staff were naturally overjoyed, not only ensuring that the aircraft would be modified according to Liu Dong's requirements, but also reducing the cost to 30 million US dollars.
Originally, Del Roosevelt wanted to persuade Liu Dong to buy a helicopter, but this kind of aircraft can also be built in China, and with Liu Dong's current network, it is not difficult to order a helicopter in China, so there is no need to increase the income of the Americans!
After finishing the plane, Liu Dong chatted with Del Roosevelt about the auction again, and left at five o'clock in the afternoon!
This time, of course, by car!
But what Liu Dong didn't expect was that when he and Ivanka returned to their residence, there were already people waiting for him!
"Mr. Liu, hello!"
When Liu Dong took Ivanka to the door, a strong white man in a black suit with a stern expression took the initiative to greet him.
"Hello!"
After simply shaking hands with the other party, Liu Dong looked the other party up and down and said suspiciously: "Who are you? We don't seem to know each other?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that our boss wants to invite Mr. Liu to dinner!"
"Your boss?"
"That's right!" nodded. The other person pulled out an invitation-like thing from the pocket of his jacket.
After Liu Dong, who was slightly puzzled, took it and opened it. The expression on his face changed. His gaze suddenly became sharp.
"Dong, what's the matter?" noticing the change in Liu Dong's expression, Ivanka asked with some concern.
"Oh, nothing! an old friend who hasn't seen each other in a long time is in trouble!"
After closing the invitation and avoiding Ivanka's gaze, Liu Dong turned his head and said, "Ivanka, you go back first, I'll talk about something." Probably have to come back a little later in the evening!"
Ivanka knew that what Liu Dong encountered was definitely not ordinary, but she was smart and well-behaved, and after experiencing the hijacking incident a month ago, her confidence in Liu Dong had reached its peak, and there was no difficulty in this world to hit her lover!
"Okay, then I'll wait for you!"
"Hmm!" After nodding at the other party with a smile, Liu Dong sent Ivanka back to the room.
After closing the door, Liu Dong casually put the invitation card with only a black skull painted into his pocket, and then stared at the strong man in black and said coldly: "Let's go, I also want to meet your boss now!"
The man in black nodded expressionlessly. Then he took Liu Dong downstairs together.
Of course, it was not only the man in black who came to invite Liu Dong this time, in addition to the driver in the extended version of the Cadillac downstairs. There is also a strong white man in black who is obviously extraordinary, and it is clear that they are all bodyguards.
Liu Dong, who was a daring artist, didn't ask too much, got into the car directly, and then let these people take him to a private club in the downtown area of New York.
"Boss, Mr. Liu is here!"
As he spoke, Liu Dong's eyes also noticed a middle-aged man sitting behind a long table, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, smiling, and carrying an aristocratic elegance.
"Mr. Liu Dong! Welcome, welcome! In the words of you Chinese, I have been 'famous for a long time' to Your Excellency!" The middle-aged man stood up and took the initiative to walk towards Liu Dong.
"I didn't expect the people of the Skull Club to be interested in Chinese culture!" Liu Dong said indifferently.
"Hehe, the Skull and Bones Society is the largest elite organization in the world, and of course it is interested in the most mysterious Chinese culture among the four ancient countries!"
"But to be so interested in the heir of the famous Harriman family in American political and business circles, then as a Chinese, I should also feel honored!"
"You know me?" the middle-aged man suddenly lost his smile.
"Of course, Mr. John Harriman, the grandson of former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury William Harriman, and now the chairman of Harriman Brothers Bank!
The Harriman family started with railroads, and under the leadership of the first patriarch Edward Harriman, with the rapid development of the American economy in the first half of the 20th century, it gradually became a large chaebol with great influence in American political circles. When Clinton was able to come to power, the role played by the Harriman family was very huge.
Of course, the rise of the Harriman family is also inseparable from the help of the Skull and Bones Society, thinking that his two sons, William Harriman and Roland Harriman, were both members of the Skull and Bones Society!
Half a century later, the descendants of the Harriman family have also become regulars in the Skull and Bones Society!
"That's right, but Mr. Liu's answer really surprised me! Ordinary Chinese don't understand this!" John Harriman smiled again.
"Ordinary Chinese will not be troubled by famous skeletons!" Liu Dong argued.
After the two looked at each other for a while, John Harriman suddenly said, "Mr. Liu came to the United States this time to participate in the Christie's auction, right?"
After thinking for a while, Liu Dong suddenly said: "If my guess is correct, those two beast heads of the Old Summer Palace should have been taken out by you, in order to lure me from China to the United States?"
After glancing at Liu Dong in surprise, "Mr. Liu's intelligence is really admirable, but I'm really sorry, I didn't expect to invite Mr. Liu to the United States to encounter the 9.11 hijacking, but fortunately, Mr. Liu is safe and sound! And it seems that the harvest is not small, Miss Ivanka Trump is a famous beauty in New York!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong frowned, but he was quickly relieved, with the Harriman family's power in the United States and the huge network of the Skull and Bones Society, it was too simple to know his details.
"Mr. Harriman, you invited me here today, it wasn't just for a simple chat, right?" Liu Dong didn't want to be long-winded anymore and said directly.
"Of course not! But as for why Mr. Liu went to great lengths to invite him from China to the United States, and then we met today, Mr. Liu should know the reason!"
Of course, Liu Dong knew it, but he couldn't say it directly!
"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you said!" Liu Dong shook his head directly.
"I don't understand, Mr. Liu has only been back from the Netherlands for more than two months, so he can't forget it so quickly, right?" said John Harriman.
"Holland? Of course I remember about Holland, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with Mr. Harriman?"
"Mr. Liu, everyone is a smart person, so don't go around in circles here! I just want to get the key, as for the conditions, Mr. Liu can mention it! As long as the Harriman family can do it!"
"Sure enough!" Liu Dong said in his heart.
Ever since he was approached by the Illuminati Thirteen families in Helsinki, he knew that skeletons who were also interested in Nazi treasures would find him sooner or later, but what Liu Dong didn't expect was that the other party would come to the door so quickly!
But Liu Dong was also sure that although the other party found him, he still couldn't be sure that the key was in his hand, after all, apart from himself, James and Blind didn't see him approaching the corpse, let alone seeing what he got from it.
So these people are just suspicious, but Liu Dong also knows that 'it is better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one go' is not only believed by Chinese.
But no matter what, Liu Dong will never hand over the key in his hand, otherwise it will only cause more trouble.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean, and I didn't get the key you said I had in the Netherlands!" Liu Dong shook his head without hesitation.
His words made John Harriman wonder in his heart.
Like Liu Dong's guess, he really couldn't be sure that the key was in Liu Dong's hands.
But according to the investigation of the Skull and Bones Club in the Netherlands, Liu Dong's suspicion is indeed the greatest, because among the five people who landed on Coles Island, Liu Dong's ability is undoubtedly the strongest.
Although there is no evidence that the key is in Liu Dong's hands, it is related to the whereabouts of the most precious treasure of the German Nazis, the 'Great German Treasure', and even the slightest clue cannot be given up.
"Mr. Liu, if you know the Skull and Bones Society, then you should understand how powerful the Skull Society is, and we want to know that Mr. Liu's every move in the Netherlands is not difficult, even very simple. So Mr. Liu doesn't have to hide anything from us!"
“…… In addition, as long as Mr. Liu is willing, I am willing to exchange the $100 million in exchange for the keys in Mr. Liu's hand, and more than 2,000 pieces of Chinese art in the Harriman family collection can be handed over to Mr. Liu free of charge. Moreover, Mr. Liu can also get the friendship of the entire Harriman family, and then, if Mr. Liu's company enters the United States, our Harriman family can do our best to help Mr. Liu!" John Harriman said as he stared at Liu Dong's eyes.
"It's a very exciting offer, and I really want to say yes, but I'm sorry, I don't have the key that Mr. Harriman said! And since Harriman knew about my trip to Holland in the first place, he should have known that I didn't get any keys other than a few nice antiques!" Liu Dong said slowly, but equally categorically.
And he also knew very well that if he really took out the key, I am afraid that not only will these chips thrown by the Harriman family not be obtained, but I am afraid that his life will be in danger!
After all, the 'Great German Treasure', which brought together the last wealth of Nazi Germany, was so tempting!
