"Three hundred million euros? Not too much, not too much... If money can solve the problem, it's not a problem. As long as we give up the deposit, that's enough. Lord John, please promise him!"
With the collective efforts, the rich people in the restaurant are now more generous than the other. It is a legend to be rich without mercy. They all turned into money-giving boys, for fear that Lord John would be embarrassed to accept it, and for fear that Henry would really turn his back and risk his life. Who would be willing to take the jade?
Hitting a rock?
"No, this won't work. As a noble, how can I hurt my friends? This is a matter between me and them. You don't have to worry about it. I won't accept the money!"
His head shook like a rattle, and John looked determined, as if he was a fighting hero who was about to carry a gun bag to blow up a bunker. His fearless expression made everyone feel chilly: No, I'm calling you Lord, just accept the money reluctantly.
Come on, my mom... transfer the money now! Butler, transfer our deposit to Mr. John's account now, quickly, quickly!"
"There are also my latest funds of 30 million. Please transfer them immediately and calculate the accumulated funds. Lord John, this is everyone's good intention. It is all for...for the sake of art. Please don't do it anymore."
Refused."
"Oh, I did the math. Including Mr. Hashimoto's money, everyone's deposit, and Mr. Wilson's additional payment, the total is 325 million euros... Mr. John, you see...
...Hey, my friends, you are harming me!" John shook his head repeatedly, expressing his embarrassment.
"Mr. John. For the sake of "The Last Supper" and for everyone's safety, let's leave it like this. Don't worry, no one will tell about this... Even if the people who can enter this restaurant are not nobles, they are also respectable people. Naturally
I can understand John's difficulty. As the heir of an ancient family, honor and responsibility coexist, and as a nobleman, being forced to rely on friends for help is really not as good as death. Earl John has made such a big sacrifice.
Isn’t it for everyone’s safety?
Long live understanding... Even though they spent a small amount of money, everyone still understood John very well and were even full of gratitude to this stubborn old man.
"Zhou, you weren't frightened, were you?"
Only then did Henry laugh and say hello to Zhou Yi: "My dear brother-in-law, I didn't expect you to show up in John's castle. I hope you can understand that all I did was for the casino, casino
There are casino rules.”
"What? This Chinese boy is actually Henry's man?"
Everyone immediately looked at Zhou Yi angrily. If they hadn't seen Li Jucheng sitting next to him and the dozen or so fierce-looking men in black suits, they might have wanted to rush up and strangle him to death.
"Casino rules?"
Zhou Yi applauded softly: "Second brother-in-law, you have made great progress? Today's scene was well arranged. If you didn't say you were here on behalf of the casino, I would have thought you were here on behalf of Hollywood, right? Mr. John? I just want to
Do you know how Henry divided the accounts with you, was it 50-50 or 40-60? Oh, I'm sorry, I overlooked the most important part. Who provided this fake painting? Henry, or you? "
"Fake painting?"
The buyers who were still bidding enthusiastically just now, but were deeply moved by John's aristocratic demeanor, changed their expressions. Now everyone is no longer in the mood to understand the relationship between Zhou Yi and Henry, but they all look at John.
"You are talking nonsense! Professor Adam, is this the friend you brought? Get him out immediately!"
John's expression changed, and he immediately roared at the top of his lungs. His hand holding the detonator moved back and forth, making everyone extremely nervous: "No, Lord John, please don't get excited."
"What, you still refuse to admit when I say this painting is fake?" Zhou Yi sneered and stepped forward, snatched the detonator from John's hand, and pressed the detonation button... Crazy, crazy, crazy ...There was chaos in the restaurant, with people holding their heads and people digging into the table. Otherwise, Mr. Hashimoto is the elite of the Yamato nation. The next one leaned over and jumped into the sea, hugging Emma's beautiful legs tightly. .This guy has figured it out. It’s too bad to die after spending more than 100 million euros. Then he should die in a more romantic way and hug the beauty to death together. This is like the first person to hug when encountering a plane crash is not the old man. Dad, it’s the same thing as a flight attendant, even if you die, you will love her!
"Rogue!"
Emma screamed and kicked Hashimoto hard on the chin.
'Ouch!' The anticipated Soul Breaking Blue Bridge and Titanic were not staged, but it was a bit like Fist of Fury. Hashimoto covered his mouth and stood up with tears in his eyes. Just as he was about to go to the eight squares, he suddenly realized that he didn't Death, full of resentment suddenly turned into boundless joy, long live the emperor, long live Amaterasu...** It is indeed fake, John, you!"
Wilson was extremely disappointed. He and John had been old friends for more than ten years. Unexpectedly, he was deceived by the person he trusted most. If the picture was fake, could the painting be real?
"John, you dare to lie to me?"
Henry's face was very exciting, as if he was angry, but he also had the fear of a child whose trick was exposed, which made people feel that his rage was just a cover-up; of course, only a thoughtful person like Zhou Yi could see that. , the rest of the people were angry about John's scam, and no one noticed him.
"Henry, aren't you also lying?" Zhou Yi smiled and suddenly moved. Before the man in a black suit closest to him could react, the AK47 in his hand was snatched away.
"Pop", Zhou Yi threw the gun to the ground, but the sound it made was not the sound of metal, but the sound of plastic products falling to the ground.
"It's a nice toy. Second brother-in-law, let me tell you, the gangsters can't be mobilized by just anyone. You're making a big joke, aren't you?"
"Liars, indeed they are all liars, this is too much!"
"I understand now that these two bastards are accomplices. This play was all rehearsed. Otherwise, with the castle's defense strength, how could these people rush in just because they said they wanted to? John, you are so shameless. I will blame you for that." You are blushing, you are still a noble!"
For a while, everyone was blaming one after another, but now Zhou Yi finally understood that these upper-class figures with status and status seemed to be no better than angry country girls. Why is Li Chaoren a Superman? At this moment, people still looked blank. Calm and motionless, drinking black tea slowly and watching the ebb and flow of the tide with a smile. This is the state.
"I admit, I'm sorry for everyone... This is because my economy is in unprecedented trouble. Two hundred million gambling debts? Oh no, no, no, that's just a small part... Facing the accusations of countless old friends John smiled bitterly: "If I can't find a solution, I'm afraid I can only declare bankruptcy, a bankrupt Lord? Haha... I admit it. Hua Xia Zhou guessed it right, Mr. Henry and I are colluding. It's really sad that a noble Lord actually wanted to be an actor and a liar for money... Looking at John who was smiling bitterly, everyone gradually became quiet. What rich people fear most is not death, but people. They are not dead yet, and their money is gone. For these people, the loss of their family is the biggest disaster. Therefore, they can best understand John's mood.
"Huaxia Zhou, no wonder even the richest man in Asia would sit next to you. I'm afraid this is not just because you are both from China, but because he admires you very much, right? I must admit that you are a very smart young man. You have a burning gaze, It's a pity that you still take it for granted... John shook his head: "Young man, nobles have the pride of nobles. Even if I have to perform exaggeratedly in order to solve economic problems in order to sell this painting for a sky-high price, I still I have my own principles. This painting is real! It is an authentic work created by Mr. Farmer when he was thirty-five years old! I have here the appraisal certificates of twelve of the most authoritative Western painting experts in Europe. There is also a scientific inspection report. , and also, the collectors here have all appreciated this painting just now, are they all wrong? Young man, you are wrong this time."
"Zhou, you may be really wrong this time. I know John. He may put on a show in order to get a good price, but he will not put up fakes for auction. This is the bottom line of a nobleman, even if it is deception. There is a limit. If you sell fake goods, it is not a commercial method, but a fraud."
Wilson sighed and looked at Lord John with pity. Suddenly, he felt sad that a thing would harm its own kind. Many people present had this idea. After all, they had seen the painting themselves, and they were all right. If they said the painting was fake, they should Is this young man out of his mind?
Even Professor Adam, who had calmed down in shock, shook his head: "Zhou, the paintings can't be wrong. I have been studying Farmer's works for half my life, and I understand them like my own children; it should be like what John said Like that, he staged this farce only for financial reasons, just to sell it at a good price... Zhou, please understand me, the casino has encountered some problems, so I will... Henry is also a little embarrassed, shooting He patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder: "But I promise, this painting has nothing to do with me. It belongs to John. It's just that after John lost a lot of money in the casino, he talked about this business with me. It just so happened that I also needed a painting. Money... It seems that you are quite capable of dealing with it. In just a few days, the casino's economy is already tight? Zhou Yi looked at Henry. Now is not the time to discuss business, family responsibilities or life ideals with him. The first priority is that truth is truth and falsehood is false.
"Are there no mistakes in expert opinions and scientific inspection reports? I know everyone has seen this painting, but it is possible that everyone has made a mistake. This painting is indeed a fake!"
"This is impossible! Young man, you are still too stubborn."
"Isn't this the appraisal of Professor Deloitte? Oh, and there is also the scientific inspection report from the Royal Academy of Sciences. There is absolutely no problem... At this time, John's butler has already collected all the expert appraisals and scientific verifications. The original reports were brought and everyone looked at them carefully and determined that they were all made by the most authoritative people and institutions. These appraisals and reports were absolutely not false. Even if they could deceive ordinary people, they would not be able to deceive them.
With these appraisal certificates and reports, let alone saying that this painting is authentic, even if it is a fake, it still becomes authentic. Is there anyone who can dig Farmer out of the ground and let him identify it himself?
I have to say that John is a very thoughtful person. He didn’t take out these certificates just now, he just kept them. Now Zhou Yi is passive. (To be continued)
