At night, the Earl of Linqing's Palace.

"Hello, Count Lin." Xue Hanqin greeted Lin Qing in Dutch.

Lin Qing stretched out his hand: "Ambassador Xue, I understand Chinese, I think if I take the Chinese Chinese exam, I can get the first grade."

Xue Hanqin was slightly surprised when he heard Lin Qing's familiar Chinese, and at the same time very curious.

Lin Qing made a gesture of please: "My adoptive parents told me that I am a Chinese, although I don't know how my biological parents gave birth to me in Moldova and abandoned me for something, but I still love Chinese culture very much, and I myself was learning Chinese and Chinese history at a very young age."

Lin Qing's life experience is handled in great detail, so detailed that if he didn't know that it was fake, he would have wondered if these were Xiao Si's real experiences, but Lin Qing forgot about it. But among them, Lin Qing has not studied Chinese and been to China, so Lin Qing still explained the reason why he knows Chinese, after all, a child who has lived abroad since childhood can be so fluent in Chinese is still very surprising. Of course, there is another loophole, that is, Wang Chuan and baby, Lin Qing and them said that their parents are from Yunnan.

Entering the castle, Lin Qing began to lead Ambassador Xue to visit his castle, and the exchange was very friendly, although it was more official.

When Ambassador Xue entered Lin Qing's study, he was immediately attracted by an ornament, Lin Qing began to pay attention to Xue Hanqin from the moment he entered the study, and after she was attracted, her heart immediately relaxed, and she really knew the head of the chicken.

Before Xue Hanqin visited Lin Qing, she simply wanted to meet the new Dutch earl, which she learned from her own channels that the earl was a Chinese.

Her first impression of Lin Qing was good, no matter who she was, she would be very friendly to "foreigners" who could speak their native language.

Her second impression of Lin Qing was that the earl was very wealthy, and she drew conclusions from all aspects of the castle where Lin Qing lived.

However, when she entered Lin Qing's study, she was immediately attracted by a bronze ornament placed on Lin Qing's desk.

"Count Lin, please forgive me for my rashness, can I take a closer look at this bronze statue?"

Lin Qing nodded, and handed it over to the head of the sheep: "This is a collection I acquired in France, it is the head of the chicken among the twelve beast heads in the Old Summer Palace, and I spent a lot of money to get it."

Xue Hanqin took the chicken head and observed it carefully, although she couldn't identify the authenticity of the chicken head, but she still held it in her hand very carefully, afraid of breaking it a little, and her intuition told her that this chicken head was real.

"Count Lin, since you know the name of this bronze statue, you should know the significance of this cultural relic to China, right? May I venture to ask, can you sell this chicken head? ”

Lin Qing was secretly happy in his heart, this was his purpose, otherwise who would help the chicken head on the desk.

"Of course, no problem, this chicken head cost 2.1 million euros when I bought it, and if you want to buy it, I am willing to transfer it at the original price."

Hearing Lin Qing's offer, Xue Hanqin was also surprised, this price is not low, according to the current RMB exchange rate, more than 20 million yuan, but in the 2000 auction, Yinhu had already auctioned a high price of 15 million Hong Kong dollars, this price is really not high.

Xue Hanqin didn't agree at the first time, and reluctantly put down the sheep's head: "I need to contact China, after all, this price is not low when converted into RMB."

After chatting about the chicken head, Xue Hanqin was obviously a little absent-minded, and after the two continued to chat with each other for half an hour, Xue Hanqin offered his farewell.

Sending Xue Hanqin away, a stone fell slightly in Lin Qing's heart, even if he may give up buying it in China because the price is too high now, next year, when the price of Wuma is close to 70 million Hong Kong dollars, it is not himself who is in a hurry.

In the study, after Lin Qing put away the chicken head, he asked the housekeeper to help Johnson find it.

Lin Qing does not have any regular income now, and his main income comes from two thefts, one in Lijiang and the other in robbing a black cupid's statue. As for other cultural relics, Lin Qing doesn't plan to sell them, just have the opportunity to sell them to ****, as for donations? Hehe, Lin Qing is not Wu Xie.

To maintain his current life, he needs at least nearly five million euros a year, so Lin Qing wants a stable industry, so he has been thinking about this since Lin Qing came back from Cape Town.

Reselling arms in Africa gave Lin Qing a taste of sweetness, and it is worthy of being a profiteering industry like drug trafficking, so Lin Qing plans to be an arms dealer, as for whether he is guilty of breaking the law? As long as Lin Qing does not sell arms in the Netherlands, the Dutch government will not care about Lin Qing, they only care about the taxes that Lin Qing pays every quarter.

Lin Qing's bodyguards except for Johnson, the rest are Chinese, so they must not be found for arms trafficking, the most important thing is that Lin Qing has heard Johnson mention before that some of his comrades-in-arms are working as mercenaries.

In the real world, mercenaries do not earn millions of dollars at a time like in the novel, most of them are three or four hundred dollars a day, and they will double when there is a war, as for killing gods in the night, their price is high, it is entirely because people have made a name for themselves, so they have this price, and many foreign soldiers are legal to become mercenaries after retiring, as long as you don't commit crimes in your own country, no one cares how many people you kill abroad.

What Lin Qing wants to do is to find an agent, and by the way, replenish his armed forces, and when he goes to Africa, he already feels that only ten bodyguards are not enough, if you want to sell arms, you must have your own armed forces.

Soon, Johnson came to Lin Qing's study.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

Lin Qing nodded, looking at this white man curiously, the years had left a deep mark on his face, and the resolute look in his eyes made the whole person look very energetic.

"I remember you said that you have quite a few of your comrades-in-arms who are mercenaries in Africa and the Middle East? How are they now? ”

Hearing Lin Qing's inquiry, Johnson didn't know how to answer, and when he first entered the door, he thought that he had done something wrong and made his boss unhappy.

"Yes, some of my comrades in the Secret Service, they don't seem to be doing a particularly good thing. I haven't contacted them in a while, though. ”

Lin Qing lightly knocked on the desk with his left hand and nodded: "John, I think you already know from Sanshui that I am an arms dealer, and I now have some business in Africa that needs to be taken care of, if I let you go, what do you think?"

Johnson was obviously stunned, this time Lin Qing came back, he knew what Lin Qing went out to do from Wu Sanshui's big mouth, but he didn't expect Lin Qing to find himself for this matter.

"Boss, I think you want to bring my former comrades together and work for you? If you pay, they'll be happy to do it. ”

"Yes, John, I need you to contact them and then take charge of my arms business in Africa, what do you think? You don't need to smuggle in to transport arms, you just have to be responsible for finding buyers and bringing the money back safely. Of course, I will give you a 10% commission for each business, and the salary on weekdays will be calculated separately, what do you think? ”

"It's tempting, boss, but I need to get in touch with my comrades before I get back to you."

"Okay, no problem."
