694 The family should be reunited
Even if the silver is worthless, with Chu Xiangqian's character, he will definitely not take the initiative to tell Philips and Norton.
But Ward's guy found the gold coins and called everyone as soon as possible.
This made Chu Xiangqian hesitate.
It's okay to give it to Ward, even Norton as the initiator, but it can be given to Philips Chu Xiangqian and he doesn't want to.
I always feel that I am taking advantage of him.
Moreover, Chu Xiangqian originally thought that this treasure was also the gold nugget in the huge wood plain, so if Chu Xiangqian came to search for the treasure by himself, it was likely that he would take away the gold nuggets and the antiques on the sea ship and leave.
In other words, these tens of thousands of gold coins will be missed by him.
Now that everyone is following the distribution plan that has been agreed before, and watching Philips also actively carry the gold coins, Chu Xiangqian finally decided to find an opportunity to take the initiative to say the existence of the silver coins.
At the end of the meal, although the four bodyguards and the six people of Philips and Norton were tired, they looked at the more than 40,000 gold coins piled up in the open space not far away, and everyone's mood was always in a state of excitement.
Only Chu Xiangqian, although happy, was far from being excited.
With his own 45% allocation, the gold coins in his hand were only 144 kilograms, equivalent to 18,000.
The market price of a $100 piece is only $1.8 million.
You can't even afford a 707 private jet, let alone the warehouse in the Novice Village, where gold is measured in hundreds of tons.
Naturally, I can't get excited.
But everyone loves a windfall.
After eating the roast rabbit, boiling chickpeas, chips and toast brought down from the yacht, everyone chatted over coffee.
It was not long before he talked about how the gold would be used after he got it back to London.
Chu Xiangqian directly said that he was willing to buy all the bronzes and porcelain for $100,000.
As for the scattered gems and jewelry she found, Margaret took a fancy to a few pieces of jewelry that were not bad, but she didn't need Chu Xiangqian to spend money to buy them.
After all, her and Chu Xiangqian's share add up to 55%.
After everyone had sorted out the jewels, Chu Xiangqian grabbed two handfuls of gold coins and threw them to Arthur and Ward.
"Do Peggy a favor and help Peggy carry her 4,000 gold coins onto the yacht."
Two gold coins, to say the least, there are dozens, even if this kind of gold coin, the market price will fall in the future, it will be thousands of dollars.
Not to mention just helping Margaret transport gold coins, even if it is to transport the 18,000 gold coins belonging to Chu Xiangqian back to the yacht together.
Philips and Norton glanced at each other, knowing that Chu Xiangqian was trying to win people over.
And the effect is very good.
Even though there were only a few dozen, Ward and Arthur were smiling happily.
The next morning, the gold, bronze and porcelain were all loaded onto the yacht, and Philips and the others wanted to stay and look for it again.
In the next three days, not only was the sail ship completely dismantled, but even the cave was dug with potholes.
And Chu Xiangqian found an opportunity to take Margaret and disclose a dozen boxes of silver coins in the new cave in the name of hunting.
At this time, Philips and the others were ecstatic, and they were even more reluctant to leave the island.
It's a pity that I don't want to go, and the food on the yacht is only enough for seven or eight days.
After all the silver coins were put on the yacht, Philips and others continued to explore the island for 4 days, and then they reluctantly got on the yacht.
Waiting for Chu Xiangqian to leave the island in his own yacht, the others were still on the deck of the yacht, muttering that after returning to London, they would rest for a while and come back to find it again.
Chu Xiangqian was naturally not interested in this, first the gold nuggets in the logs, then the gold coins in the sea boat, and finally a dozen boxes of silver coins.
There is a high probability that all the treasures have been found.
wasting any more time on this island was really unnecessary for Chu Xiangqian.
——
As the ship began to sail towards the Maldives, all eyes were on the dozen or so boxes of silver coins.
These silver coins could be recognized at a glance by Chu Qianqian as Eagle Ocean, that is, Mexican silver yuan.
The price of this thing in the numismatic market varies greatly.
The overall issuance of Mexican silver dollars is very large, dating back more than 300 years to the mid-16th century.
Moreover, in the past 300 years, there have been more than a dozen official mints, and there are even more private mints.
There are at least 300 varieties of Mexican silver dollars in the numismatic market alone.
As a result, some types can be expensive in the thousands or tens of thousands of dollars, but the most common ones are only a few tens of dollars.
Moreover, the process and silver content are high and low, and the value of silver dollars is naturally high and low.
Chu Xiangqian recognized these silver dollars, and Arthur, Philips, and Norton also knew the surprise of these silver dollars.
Therefore, for the sake of fairness, Chu Xiangqian could not start selecting silver dollars one by one, so he could only take 8.8 boxes from the 16 boxes as if he were opening a blind box.
I chose 8 boxes first, and I was about to pour out the silver coins in the ninth box and weigh them, and divide 8% of the silver dollars.
Seeing this, Norton took the initiative to say that since these silver dollars were discovered by Chu Xiangqian and Margaret, Chu Xiangqian and Margaret simply took 9 boxes.
The others didn't hesitate and agreed.
The remaining 7 boxes, Philips and others have one point, which can be regarded as a windfall.
When everyone began to check the silver dollars they had received, there was always a sound of surprise from time to time.
Margaret was surprisingly not interested in any of that, but yes, the chick only loved jewelry.
directly gave Chu Xiangqian all the gold and silver coins that belonged to his 10% share.
And Chu Xiangqian saw the chick's thoughts at a glance, smiled and packed the more than 20 pieces of jewelry he had given to him in velvet bags, and gave them all to Margaret.
Sure enough, Margaret excitedly hugged Chu and kissed him.
——
On the way back in the next two days, the people who gained a lot of money first got drunk, and then muttered that they wanted to have a party the next day.
Chu Xiangqian didn't care about these drunkards, he and Margaret stayed in the wheelhouse, taking turns to drive the boat.
Don't look at Chu Qianqian, he can't look down on the $4 million gold coins and more than a dozen boxes of silver coins for this treasure hunt.
But for Philips, 6,000 gold coins for 150,000 pounds, and 1.5 boxes for about 4,500 silver coins worth 10,000 pounds.
It is already worth 6% of the special money he gets from the royal family every year.
And the time spent on the treasure hunt is only half a month.
And the thrill and sense of accomplishment of finding the treasure is enough for Philips and Norton to brag about it in the aristocratic community after returning to London.
There were gold and silver coins, and everyone could suspect that they were.
Norton, who received 200,000 pounds worth of gold coins and 15,000 pounds of silver, and four bodyguards worth 30,000 pounds each, were also very happy.
After learning that Chu Xiangqian and Margaret would not put the gold coins on the market, Arthur and the others were relieved at the same time, and began to discuss that they would slowly sell half or one-third of the gold coins in the next two years.
Enough for them to buy a house in London with a small area.
Of course, if you want to buy a house near Kensington Palace, or Hyde Park, you can't buy a good house for £10,000 or 150,000.
But if you're around London, it's okay to buy a small farm of a few dozen acres.
So on the yacht, Norton and these guys are already discussing the next treasure hunt.
Chu Xiangqian naturally has no opinion, anyway, Norton and the others provide news and clues, if they can find it in advance.
Whether you take them to play with you again depends on whether you have the time to ask for them.
At most, after the fact, in the name of business, it will be distributed to the person who provided the clue, and 5% of the total value of the treasure will be paid for the message.
——
After arriving in the Maldives, Norton and Philips hired someone to open the party as soon as possible.
Even the captain of the frigate, the first mate and others who were swimming around were invited by him to the shore to attend the party.
In this way, there is no need for Chu Xiangqian to drive the yacht back to Singapore by himself.
For £400, there will be 2 crew members on the frigate to help drive the yacht back.
The deposit will also be remitted to London after the yacht has been inspected by the marina and received by Margaret.
After two days of trouble in the Maldives, Chu sent Margaret and Philips and others on the Princess private jet.
But he was not in a hurry to return to Hong Kong Island.
Putting 18,000 gold coins, 9 boxes of silver coins and antiques into the novice village, Chu Xiangqian took a small charter plane and flew to Xinjiapo.
Since Chu Xiangqian was willing to spend $100,000 to buy all the bronzes and porcelain, Philips was naturally willing to accept cash instead of Sydney gold coins.
The $100,000 was actually high, but Chu Xiangqian was not without a return, not only did Philips agree to help him find the antiques of the Celestial Empire.
Arthur and the other four bodyguards also promised to have free time, and also helped him ask relatives and friends about the antiques of the Celestial Empire.
Not only will there be more collaborators, but Norton's enthusiasm for acquiring antiques will also increase in the future.
——
After arriving at Xinjiapo, Chu Xiangqian passed through the sable and found the club boss surnamed Lin who sent someone to follow him more than ten days ago.
Take advantage of the night to let the sables carry a letter and put it on the other party's bedside.
When he woke up the next morning, Lin Asan's face turned white with fright.
If you want to kill yourself, you don't know how you died last night.
As for the Kuala Lumpur official saying that the Cao family died in the revenge of the pirates, Lin Ah San, who had dealings with the Cao family, did not believe it at all.
Now that I saw the letter on the bedside, I was even more convinced that the Cao family was killed by Chu Xiangqian.
After reading the letter, I slowed down for a while, and then hurriedly took my subordinates to the Four Seasons Hotel in Xinjiapo according to the letter explained.
Chu Xiangqian, who was having lunch in the hotel restaurant, saw the hotel lobby manager walking quickly towards him, and guessed that the person he wanted to see should have arrived at the hotel.
It didn't take long for Chu Xiangqian to get up very politely, and nodded to Lin Asan who was following the lobby manager.
But in Lin Asan's eyes, the more polite Chu Xiangqian was, the more scared he was in his heart.
Hurriedly bowed his head and said, "In Xia Lin Ah San, Mr. Chu, if you have orders, you will definitely do it in Xia." ”
Chu Xiangqian smiled and waved his hand, pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Don't worry, sit first." ”
Seeing this, Lin Asan felt a little relieved.
On the way to the hotel, he had already roughly guessed Chu Xiangqian's purpose for looking for him.
glanced at the hotel lobby manager, and waited for the manager to take the initiative to leave, then continued to stand and whisper.
"Mr. Chu, when you came to me, you should want to know why my people knew which hotel you stayed in the night you came to Xinjiapo, right?"
Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but look at Lin Asan differently.
This guy is not only bright-minded, but also very clear-headed.
After nodding with a smile, he heard Lin Asan whisper, "Chu Sheng, Singapore is actually very small, and there is only one airport.
And your private jet is so conspicuous that I've heard people say that you're the only one in the world right now.
In addition, you are looking for a relationship on Hong Kong Island, and you want to discuss the ransom of the hostages with the Cao family in Kuala Lumpur and Ha Cha in Jakarta.
However, this also made the Cao family and Ha Ji dare not tear up the ticket at all.
Not only are you difficult to deal with, but the people of Yingguo will retaliate, which is even more troublesome.
So from the moment you landed at the airport, people already knew that you had come to Xinjiapo.
However, there are very few people who really dare to think about you.
Even the Cao family only paid me to spy on you at the beginning. It's just that I didn't expect Cao Lao to be forced to death by the Ying people.
This is the second eldest and two daughters in the next generation of the Cao family, and I want to ask you to incense on the mourning hall of Boss Cao. ”
Chu Xiangqian frowned and thought about it, Lin Asan's people seemed to be really just following him, otherwise there would be a chance to kidnap him during the period when he followed him all the way to the yacht dock.
Of course, they also have to be glad they didn't do it, otherwise they wouldn't be sitting here and talking to each other.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiangqian suddenly asked, "Is there anyone else in the Cao family who can take charge?" ”
Lin Asan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, Chu Xiangqian was worried that someone would retaliate and wanted to clean up the Cao family.
Secretly glanced at Chu Xiangqian, and when he saw him say this, there was no emotion on his face.
immediately knew that the young man in front of him was worthy of being a ruthless person who could do it and kill the whole family with a mortar.
I was scared, and my head began to sweat.
After thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to talk about capable people, the boss of the Cao family is very powerful, but unfortunately I heard that when the pirates retaliated that night, the second and third generations of the Cao family's children and grandchildren, but all those who were in Malaysia, all died."
The rest are partial or distant relatives, and they are now busy fighting for the Cao family's inheritance. ”
Chu Xiangqian nodded, and could hear that Lin Asan was excusing the people who were still alive in the Cao family.
But he didn't intend to embarrass him.
waved his hand at Lin Asan and signaled that he could go.
Then he wiped his mouth with a napkin and got up and walked to the phone in the restaurant.
I made a call to Liansheng's other fat.
As a member of the Heliansheng Pavilion and an old Jianghu who has been in the mixed community for more than 20 years, Deng Fei's relationship network is much wider than that of the camel that has just sat in the hall for less than 2 years.
Just explained a few words, Deng Fei patted his chest and promised that he would get the Cao family's lineage.
After hanging up the phone, Deng Fei thought for a while while brewing kung fu tea.
I called the bad life kun of the number gang.
The killers of the High Table, although good and bad, are transnational organizations in the end.
As long as you give money, you can still get nine out of ten against ordinary people.
——
Chu Xiangqian took care of the matter of Xinjiapo and went back to Hong Kong Island directly.
And he appeared in public several times in a high-profile manner, in order to attract potential dangers.
Fortunately, everything was normal, not only did the not find any suspicious people following him, but Linda's 40 Gurkha mercenaries, a mobile force composed of them, did not find anything abnormal.
And in less than a week, Deng Fei came to the door with a file bag.
