Chapter 1045 - Someone Designed
When Baker heard Will's words, he looked at him in surprise and exclaimed, "Man, Great British Shipping? Oh my God, does this company have anything to do with us? Could it be that you have business dealings with them? ”
"No, it's not."
Will calmed down for a moment, ordered the captain to turn around, and quickly explained to Baker, saying, "Man, it's not as strange as you think, this lawyer who claims to be from the British Empire is here to ask us to return all the gold coins we have salvaged......"
"Fuck his shit!"
Hearing Will's words, Baker instantly became angry, jumped like thunder, scolded viciously, foamed at the mouth, and shouted excitedly: "Why? Or even returned? Are they dreaming? Falk Squid! ”
"Dude, they're not dreaming!" Weir accentuated his tone and said, "The people from the auction house informed me that this lawyer, who claimed to be the Great British Shipping Company, took out a document proving that the gold coins we deposited in the auction house belonged to their company......"
"Will."
When Zuo Jian heard this, he interrupted Will's words and said, "Have you found out the information about the wreck before?" Is it a vessel belonging to Great British Shipping? ”
In contrast to Baker's anger, Zuo Jian was sober. Something like this he had heard of before in Huaxiaguo. For example, a certain farmer dug up an antique from the ground and was about to take it out to sell, but the descendants of such and such a person rushed to the scene, claiming that the antique belonged to them, because a few decades ago, the farmer's house was the property of their ancestors, and this antique was also buried in the ground by their ancestors.
What Zuo Jian didn't expect was that this kind of "fruit-grabbing" behavior could also be encountered here.
And it seems that the other party is very formal, and directly sent a lawyer.
It seems that those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come.
"Is it a ship belonging to Great British Shipping?"
Will was asked by Zuo Jian for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at Baker.
"Damn, don't look at me...... Oh, sorry man. ”
Sensing the flaw in his words, Baker quickly apologized and said, "I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding this stupid lawyer...... Well, let me think about it. He frowned, thought uncertainly for a while, and said hesitantly: "It seems that it is really the ship of the Great British Shipping Company." ”
"The original information was found by Baker first."
Will explained to Zuo Jian, and then stared at Baker and said, "Man, are you sure, you're not mistaken?" ”
Baker closed his eyes and thought for a moment, opened his eyes, nodded and said, "Yes man, I'm sure that the wreck we salvaged belongs to the Great British Shipping Company...... It's just that I'm very skeptical, how did these guys know the news and come to the door? ”
That's right. How did they find their door?
Hearing Baker's words, Will's heart suddenly stirred, and he realized that something seemed to be wrong, and from head to toe, there was a smell of conspiracy.
I had just come back from overseas, and entrusted those dozens of boxes of gold coins to the auction house, and before and after, it didn't even take a month, and the lawyer of the big British shipping company came to the door, and someone must have leaked the news to them, because even if it is a hunting dog, its nose must not be so keen!
"Damn ......"
Thinking of this, Vir felt a burst of anger in his heart, who is it? Who is behind the calculations of himself!
"I see."
Zuo Jian nodded, lit a cigarette, and took a slow puff. Compared with the anger of Will and Baker, Zuo Jian behaved very strangely, he was very calm, and it seemed that this matter had nothing to do with him at all.
But in fact, this is absolutely impossible, because more than half of those gold coins belong to him.
If he can sell it for 300 million euros, then Zuo Jian will get at least 160 million or so, and such a fortune is absolutely sky-high.
In other words, if such a price can really be auctioned, then Zuo Jian will instantly become a member of the billionaire club.
"Man, what do you think?"
After Vir calmed down, he stared at the churning waves behind the cruise ship for a while, and then raised his head and looked at Zuo Jian.
"I think someone is dealing with you."
Zuo Jian let out a puff of smoke, looked at Will, and said lightly: "That's why such a thing happened." For example, your opponents investigated the gold coins we had placed in the auction house, and then they notified the British shipping company and asked these so-called 'bitter masters' to make such an unreasonable demand for the return. ”
"You're right."
Will nodded, he had some admiration for Zuo Jian in his heart.
It's not a big fuss to be able to think that someone is dealing with you, but in such a short period of time, the person who can analyze the causes and consequences, the ins and outs of the whole thing, is very remarkable.
From this point of view, Zuo Jian's mind is very meticulous, and from one detail, he can infer the approximate whole process of the matter.
"Man, you're absolutely right."
Hearing Zuo Jian's words, Baker's eyes lit up, and he shouted at Will: "Will, who is it that is secretly planning to deal with you?" Is it your enemy? ”
"I don't know much about ...... either"
Will frowned and pondered, coldly, a handsome face suddenly popped out of his mind, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "Could it be that guy Cross?" He vaguely felt that if someone was really secretly revealing this matter, then this person would definitely be Kroos.
"Who's Cross?"
Baker was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Why does this name sound so familiar?" He frowned and pondered as he recalled, where he had heard of the name.
"Will Cross be able to get into the auction house?"
Zuo Jian asked such a question inexplicably.
Will thought carefully for a moment, nodded vigorously, and said affirmatively: "Yes!" I remember that the people who worked in the auction house had a manager who was also a member of the collateral line...... They know each other, each other. ”
Zuo Jian sighed and didn't say anything.
During this period of time, with his secret observation, Zuo Jian discovered something.
Although the Romero family seems to be very harmonious, in fact, there are undercurrents surging in it, and they are fighting each other very fiercely.
In the castle of the Romero family, in addition to the Vill family and other direct children, there are also many side children, who seem to be very harmonious on the surface, and greet each other very politely after meeting each other.
But Zuo Jian could see at a glance that the smiles on their faces were so fake that they believed each other, and they all knew in their hearts that this kind of smile was just a formulaic smile.
In fact, they both have no good feelings for each other.
Besides, Zuo Jian had seen this person before, and if Will was sure that he did it, then Zuo Jian didn't think there was anything strange about it.
"If Kroos can get into the auction house."
Zuo Jian nodded and said with certainty: "Then, the secret of the gold coin is actually not a secret...... I believe that with his ability, he will definitely be able to get a few gold coins, and then as long as he is careful and looks through the information, he should be able to find their true owners. ”
Indeed, gold coins seem to be ordinary, but in fact, in each era, the patterns, styles, and weights forged on gold coins are different. As long as you can get the actual thing, and then look through the materials, you can determine the exact age in which it was made.
The shipping company is even simpler, Great Britain was the hegemon of the sea, but most of their ships are not used to carry cargo, so sometimes, when carrying some goods, you need to borrow the ships of other companies.
These things, as long as you look through the classics and add a little patience, are completely traceable.
"I know who Cross is......"
Baker slapped his thigh hard, remembered this person, and said to Will, "It's your brother, isn't it?" That long-looking handsome guy. ”
Will pursed his lips unhappily and said, "You're right, but one thing, I want to correct you, I don't think this guy is my brother." ”
"Vir, it seems that your position is very weak."
Baker looked at him thoughtfully and said, "Cross wants to fight for the patriarch's inheritance, right?" He immediately saw the real purpose behind this matter.
This is normal, and the ship king also has several sons. Although Baker is the most favored youngest son, he has lived in such an environment since he was a child, and he is naturally not unfamiliar with these things, on the contrary, he is very familiar with them.
"Dude, you're not kidding."
Hearing Beck's words, Will stiffened, snorted, and said, "Just by virtue of Cross? Hmph, he wants to fight me, he just doesn't know whether he is alive or dead......"
Baker pursed his lips, not exposing Will's stubble lies.
Zuo Jian puffed out a puff of smoke and thought in his heart what to do about this matter.
To be honest, Zuo Jian has no interest in such a thing as the heir to the patriarch of the Romero family, he knows in his heart that a financial giant like the Romero family, which has been inherited for hundreds of years, is a behemoth, and the most taboo thing for such a family is that others interfere in the affairs of their family.
But this does not mean that Zuo Jian can swallow his anger and look at his own things, which is secretly designed by others, which makes him feel that he is being used as a gun.
