"What? Are you bullying me for not knowing math? It's 10 percent, why did you give 20,000 more? ”
Jesse couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the numbers on the check, and then her face changed, she was a very principled person, especially when it came to money, she was very sensitive.
She has always disliked people taking advantage of her, and she also doesn't like to take advantage of others.
Especially a beauty like her, and she is mixed in a gold cave like New York, begging for a living in the circle of the rich, there have been countless times, those rich people have waved checks, hoping to smash her, and figure out the guò green ticket to make her open legs, but they have not gotten half a good face from her.
Now Jin Muchen actually gave himself an extra 20,000, what does he mean? Could it be that this guy who looks sunny and honest on the surface is also like those idiots with fat brains, hoping to come to Guò to gain his favor?
This made Jesse's face change when he looked at Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen also noticed the change in Jesse's expression, and he immediately explained.
"Hey! Don't get me wrong, Jesse, it's not what you think. Actually, I have a few friends on the West Coast, they have something in their hands, but it's hot, they want to make a move, but they don't have the right channels. So he asked me to help ask and see if I could find someone willing to take over. I'm a newcomer to New York's antique circles, and I don't know as many people as you do, and I don't have as many channels as you. So I thought about asking you for a favor and seeing if I could find someone willing to take over, what about the money, even if it is some sincerity on my side, of course, if the business is done, there must be another thanks. ”
Jesse heard Jin Muchen say this, the expression on her face was much better, her pale yellow delicate eyebrows were raised, and then the corners of her mouth were also raised at the same time.
"Oh? What kind of baby, let's hear it. ”
Jin Muchen was overjoyed when he saw that Jesse did not refuse.
"Uh...... It's just something I got back from the Middle East, and I don't know much about the specifics......"
He said it cryptically, but he knew that Jesse must know what he was talking about.
Sure enough, when Jesse heard him say this, the expression on his face changed, and he was still smiling just now, but as soon as he turned his face, he became stern.
"Oh my God! Are you telling the truth? ”
Jesse's expression was very strict, and Jin Muchen was also a little nervous by him, and he nodded.
He has also been having a headache with Capote's entrustment of him recently, this trip to the West Coast, people have helped him a lot, and he can also see that Capote's they are all friends and usable people, not to mention that there seems to be a team behind him.
Jin Muchen felt that he had to be surrounded by this group of people, so this time people asked him for help, and he had to do it beautifully.
However, Wang Xueming has returned to China during this time, and even if Wang Xueming is still in the United States, he may not be interested in these Iraqi things, so he thinks about it, and Jesse is the most suitable person to help.
She has been in the upper class of New York for many years, has dealt with many rich people, and she is also an investment consultant for many rich people in antiques, so she should only have the widest network and the richest, and she may be able to digest all those things easily.
"It's definitely true, my friends aren't lying."
Jesse nodded, then continued, "You know, it's hard to circulate things like this in the market now. The government has strong supervision over antiques from Iraq, especially the FBI. ”
"Oh? Is that so? I don't really know that. ”
Jin Muchen shook his head and said, but after thinking about it, it was also true, Capote was originally born as a thief, and he must be very knowledgeable about underground stolen goods, especially antiques.
But now he has come to his head for help, which shows the strict supervision of the US government.
"In fact, it's no wonder that the government strictly supervises it, mainly because in the past few years, there have been too many scandals, and it is difficult for them to open their eyes and close their eyes."
Jesse explained to Jin Muchen that during the Second Iraq War, not only the contractors made a fortune, but even those American GIs, few of them were clean.
The contractors patronized Iraq's major banks and museums, and even visited the homes of many tribal elders who were unfriendly to the United States, while the American military took advantage of the opportunity to loot Saddam's lair.
As a politician who has ruled Iraq for decades, Saddam Hussein is certainly not a good thing, and he has scavenged a lot of people's fat and ointment from the people in the past few decades.
In the end, he made wedding clothes for the Americans, and his treasures became trophies of American GIs.
After the end of the war, there were many people who criticized the legitimacy and rationality of the war, especially some people who liked to find fault with the looting of Iraq by American soldiers.
For example, some people have discovered that some American GIs who have returned from Baghdad are selling Saddam's former uses, gold and silver jewelry, watches, and pens on the Internet, and even more exaggeratedly, some people have discovered that an American GI actually sells the floor tiles of Saddam's bedroom on the Internet.
Those who have a lot of associative power can even infer from this that at that time, the American GIs were scraping the ground in Iraq, so a war officially proclaimed by the United States as for freedom and justice became what those people called dirty robbery.
This made the US authorities very angry, and even more so, in the end, Iraq lost about 15,000 precious cultural relics in that war, and more than 70 percent of these cultural relics were brought to the United States.
This evidence made the U.S. government lose face in the international community, until two years ago, a museum in the United States was discovered to have a private collection of Iraqi cultural relics lost during the war, and finally the court came forward and ordered the museum to return those cultural relics.
Of course, the relevant departments of the US government are very angry, and this is a matter that affects the international image of the United States, after all, there are some things that everyone knows secretly, but it is a bit too embarrassing to be pointed at in the face like this.
It seems that it is definitely not possible to be a @ son and set up an archway, so the FBI has set up a special team to fish on the black market and websites to crack down on those traffickers who sell Iraqi antiquities.
There have been many people who have been accidentally tricked, so now the circle hates and loves these cultural relics from Iraq, and the action is much smaller.
This is the main reason why Jesse is so cautious.
"Are you sure those friends of yours can be trusted?"
After explaining to Jin Muchen, Jesse asked again, Jin Muchen's heart moved, it seems that although the law is terrible, it can't scare people like Jesse, as long as there is money to be made, what contraband do you have?
"Don't worry, my friends must be trustworthy, these things are brought back from Iraq by themselves."
Jesse didn't speak, but muttered for a moment.
"Okay, you go back first and wait for me to call. I'll reach out to a few of my sellers and if they're willing to buy, we'll talk about what to do next. By the way, you'd better ask your friend to take a few pictures of those things and send them to me, so I can have a rough judgment. ”
Jin Muchen nodded.
"No problem, I'll ask them to send me the picture when I get back. By the way, Jesse, aren't you afraid of the law? ”
Jin Muchen asked Jesse with a smile, but he didn't expect Jesse to smile coldly.
"Humph! Law!? God can't stop us from making money, can he? ”
Jin Muchen was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect that this chick with such a beautiful appearance would have such a fierce side.
Instead of going back to Fang Bo's antique shop, he went directly to Columbia University to pick up Candace, had lunch out together, and then came to a design company together.
This design company called Landall is not very large, but it is very famous in interior design and decoration, especially in the renovation of old houses, as well as the design of LOFT and SOHO apartments.
At present, many newly renovated apartments in SOHO are designed by their designers, and even several designers of their company have been featured in professional magazines here in New York.
And the reason why their company is so famous in this area is because this company was originally founded by a few New Drifters who live in the SOHO area.
It was after discovering the huge development potential of the SOHO district that they resolutely gave up their dream of pursuing art, and instead put their painting expertise and imagination into interior decoration and design.
Because they originally lived in the SOHO district, the style of the place was developed by their group of street artists, so their company quickly became famous in the industry.
This company was actually recommended by Helen, and Jin Muchen didn't think much about it and brought Candace over to have a look.
At the front desk, he explained his intentions, and soon a middle-aged white man in his forties came out of the company, with medium build, curly hair, a mustache, and a pair of small but round eyes, which looked very much like a TV actor.
"Hello, Mr. Kim, I'm Vane. Duffy, the designer here, I heard that you have a house that you want to renovate recently, can you tell me what you think of this house? ”
Before at the front desk, Jin Muchen told him what he meant, and the front desk recorded a lot of information about his house, especially after knowing the location of his house, he didn't even look at him differently.
These little white-collar workers are shrewd people, and they can roughly guess how much you are worth when they look at your house, and even know what kind of designer to recommend to you according to your room type. R1152
