Solving Middle Age Crisis by Intelligence System Chapter 436 - 277: Stepping Down...? (Double-Length)
In the warehouse, Qi Yun rely gave a faint smile in response to Wei Xueming’s astonished look.
"Don’t look at like that. I’m not all that great."
"The reason I want to donate these things to the country, firstly, is because they are national treasures and carry deep national sentints. They shouldn’t drift overseas or be privately hoarded by anyone."
"Secondly, I’m not currently in dire need of money, and I believe the country definitely won’t treat unfairly even if I donate them."
It was only to this little old man who had always cared for him, that Qi Yun would reveal such truths. Had it been anyone else, these wouldn’t have been his words.
Wei Xueming nodded after hearing and felt gratified by Qi Yun’s honesty. This was the reason he had used his resources several tis to help Qi Yun.
In his heart, despite Qi Yun being a bit slippery, he was a person with integrity and discretion. Although he also fought for benefits, that was only human nature.
Having lived to his age, he had seen too many people who spoke of righteousness yet were self-centered and selfish inside.
"So, how do you plan to handle this matter?"
Qi Yun gave a chuckle: "That’s another reason I ca to you today. I want to directly donate this batch of valuable cultural relics to the National Museum in Beijing, but I don’t know their leadership. I’m hoping you could help get in touch."
Wei Xueming glanced at him upon hearing this, naturally understanding what he ant.
"I used to know the old director of the National Museum, but he has retired now. I can’t communicate with the people over there anymore."
"You should find Director Yu. He should have the channels to help you get in touch."
"Vice Director Yu?" Upon hearing this, Qi Yun shook his head like a rattle, "Better not find him."
He still rembers when Yu Qixuan, that old man, wanted to take the Lunar teorite for free the first ti he spoke, and after his insistence, only gave sixty thousand along with three years of advertisents on museum tickets to take the Lunar teorite.
That’s why Qi Yun now resists dealing with this person; he is too stingy. If he learns about these treasures’ existence, he might report it to the higher-ups, and they could forcibly keep a couple of items.
The Twelve Bronze Heads are beyond their grasp, but with one or two porcelain pieces, it’s still possible. These are treasures Qi Yun obtained at a great cost, counting on them to resolve the gun license issue.
"You rascal..." Wei Xueming chuckled, knowing what’s on Qi Yun’s mind, "Don’t worry, Director Yu has retired. He can help you contact them as a private favor."
"Retired...retired, huh?" Qi Yun uttered, licking his lips. Yu Qixuan appeared slightly younger than Wei Xueming, but probably not by much. It’s normal for him to retire.
"Will Director Yu agree to help? Can you call him?"
Wei Xueming waved his hand. "You call. It’s a good deed; he won’t refuse."
"Alright." Seeing Wei Xueming speak thus, Qi Yun didn’t hesitate and imdiately took out his phone to find Yu Qixuan’s number.
Over forty minutes later, Yu Qixuan hurriedly arrived at the warehouse and was left speechless upon seeing those more than twenty treasures.
Imdiately, he painstakingly examined each treasure closely, but just as Wei Xueming said, he didn’t ntion keeping these items in the local museum.
"Director Yu, these cultural relics have no paperwork. There won’t be any issues donating them to the National Museum, will there?" Qi Yun asked tentatively.
Yu Qixuan curled his lips dismissively: "How many of those things in the British Museum have legal paperwork?"
"Once they are on our soil, no one else can ddle! Besides, these cultural relics were originally ours!"
Seeing Yu Qixuan speak so assertively, all of Qi Yun’s last concerns vanished into thin air.
"Hehe, alright then. Could I trouble you to help contact the leaders at the National Museum?"
Yu Qixuan nodded. "Rest assured, I’ll handle this. I’ll talk with them when I return."
"Great, thank you so much, Director Yu." Qi Yun rubbed his hands and sincerely expressed his gratitude.
"No need to thank ." Yu Qixuan waved his hand, "You’re doing a good deed; I will surely support it unconditionally!"
"Director Yu is so noble!"
"Alright, kid, don’t butter up. Make sure to keep this batch safe!" Yu Qixuan reminded.
Qi Yun nodded. "I know, don’t worry."
...
anwhile, Nima, who had returned to the Bird City, didn’t go to that small hotel, but instead found another densely populated urban village.
After booking a room, he dialed the middleman’s number.
"Hello, how is it?"
The voice on the other end sighed: "Buddy, to be honest, not many can afford your price of two thousand."
"Also, with these deals, people can’t just agree to trade after rely looking at photos. They definitely need to et a couple of tis more to check the goods, right?"
"If you agree, I’ll contact them for you. There’s currently a buyer interested."
Nima remained silent for a while, then replied hoarsely: "Verification is fine, but for twenty million, I want gold bars, not a bank transfer."
"That’s all negotiable. Anyone who can shell out twenty million definitely has the ans to get gold bars." The middleman readily agreed, "I’ll ask them now, and notify you when the ti and location are finalized for the eting."
"Set the ti for tomorrow; I’ll let you know the place then." Nima said squinting his eyes.
The middleman hesitated for two seconds, then eventually nodded: "Alright, it’s up to you."
