Chapter 581 The Eastern Devil
"Not many, Manager George, the women outside have all raised the price to 550,000 pounds. I want one million pounds not much at all. And you have to know that this ruby is the best and most perfect ruby in the world at present. Its function is not just a commodity. If you give it to the King of England first, you can definitely exchange it for a title, but you have to think about it carefully. △,"
Liu Nan said that sometimes, the value of a rare item is not only reflected in money, but rare items can gain many benefits beyond money.
Liu Nan's words made George fall into deep thought. Indeed, he did not regard this ruby as a commodity, and he did have the idea of presenting this ruby to the royal family. You should know that one million pounds cannot be exchanged for a title, but a peerless ruby worth one million pounds can easily be exchanged for a title. As a British citizen, George has dreamed of aristocratic since he was a child.
"Seven hundred thousand pounds."
"One million pounds."
"800,000 pounds."
"One million pounds."
"Nine hundred thousand pounds."
"One million pounds."
"Well, you won, Mr. Scott, you're such a natural negotiator."
No matter how George raised the price, Liu Nan only insisted on the reserve price of one million pounds. The pound is still very strong now. Unlike the pound that was under the financial crisis seven or eight years later, the pound depreciated greatly. And although last year, on February 28, 1922, Britain was forced to recognize Egypt's independence, Britain still retained four privileges here: the British army stationed in the Suez Canal area, retained the power to defend Egypt's national defense and transportation lines, protect the foreigners and their property in Egypt, and maintain the supreme rule over Sudan.
So the pound is a hard currency in Egypt. The United States is not as powerful as it was after World War II, so the US dollar is not very useful.
After getting a check of one million pounds, Liu Nan left the jewelry store and needed to find a place to live. Of course, it must be in this area. Liu Nan could not stand the areas where the Egyptians lived, and it was too dirty.
After walking for a while, Liu Nan smiled at the corner of his mouth. He was really jealous of money and was followed by someone. Since that's the case, don't blame yourself for being rude.
Liu Nan found a trail and walked in. The few people following Liu Nan also accelerated their pace. When they entered the trail, they found that their target was standing there waiting for them.
"Gentlemen, is there anything you need help?"
Liu Nan said lightly, without a trace of panic, which made these white strong men following Liu Nan a little confused. Shouldn’t the target run away in a hurry?
"Yellow boy. Take out all the money you got from selling gems and other gems, or I will make you a food for fish in the Nile."
The strong white man in the head said, and at the same time pulled out a dagger.
"Oh, it turns out to be a robbery. No problem, I have a check and a gem, too. But do you have that ability to take it away?"
Liu Nan still said relaxedly, not at all as panic as these robbers imagined.
"Damn yellow-skinned boy. He is very stubborn, kill you. All of this belongs to us."
The strong white man who took the lead immediately asked his subordinates to rush over and kill Liu Nan.
Facing the five strong white men rushing over, Liu Nan was still not in a hurry and kicked the strong man running in the front. The robber flew backwards and hit the walls on both sides of the path, directly knocking out a sunken wall, which made the other four robbers stunned.
However, Liu Nan was not stunned. He stepped forward, grabbed the two robbers, then jumped up and smashed them hard to the ground. Two shallow pits were immediately smashed into the soil. The two robbers who were thrown to the ground were bleeding from their seven orifices. They died without even struggling.
"ah."
In a moment, all three companions were dead, which made the remaining two robbers scream in fear.
Unfortunately, their screams didn't last long. Liu Nan jumped up with a whip leg, and the two robbers' heads were kicked out as football, hitting the wall beside them, and turned into two slices of meat sauce.
"Devil, devil, don't come here."
All of his subordinates were dead, and now only the robber boss was left.
"The checks and gems are here, why don't you want them?"
Liu Nan walked around the bodies of the two robbers who were squirting blood on their necks on the ground, and then slowly thought that the robber boss would walk away.
"Don't come over, don't come over, I have a gun."
The boss of the robber immediately took out a revolver and aimed at Liu Nan with trembling hands.
"Do you think this toy gun can kill the devil? Poor."
Liu Nan still slowly walked towards him, causing greater and greater pressure in his heart.
"Bang."
The boss of the robber could not bear the pressure brought by Liu Nan and pulled the trigger. However, he only saw that the Eastern devil waved his hand and a bullet appeared at the fingertips of the devil. The bullet was actually caught by the devil.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang."
The robber boss pulled the trigger frantically and poured out all the remaining five bullets, but the result was the same, and they were all caught by the Eastern Devil.
"How is it, is there any more? Since you've finished the game, it's time for me to express it."
Liu Nan looked at the bullets in his hand and threw out four directly. The four bullets accurately hit the robber's boss's two elbows and two knees. His elbows and knees were smashed by the bullets thrown by Liu Nan.
The boss of the robber suddenly collapsed to the ground, and at the same time he was wailing in pain. How regretful he was. He shouldn't have listened to his mistress and robbed the Eastern Devil. Since the other party dared to take such a precious gem, he was definitely not a fool. The fool would have died in this turbulent world long ago.
"Shut up, if I hear your howl again, you will never have to speak out in your life."
Liu Nan walked to the robber boss and said to him. The robber boss immediately closed his mouth, but he still made a muffled sound of pain in his throat.
"Very good, I will save your life. It's not that I dare not kill you, but that I need you as a role model to help me eliminate the peeping of more ungrateful people. You are lucky. If I catch you next time, I will use you to fish in the Nile River. Do you know?"
Liu Nan squatted down and said to the boss of the robber, then walked out of the path and continued to find a place to live. As for the boss of the robber, it was his luck to be able to leave alive. If he was beaten up, he would be unlucky.
Maybe he was really lucky, and was soon found by other subordinates. After that, a story circulated in Cairo City was circulating. There was an Eastern devil who was invulnerable to swords and guns and had great power. If he provoked him, he would have to die. (To be continued.)
