If he sold it on consignment, although he would not be exposed, it would definitely attract Sun Deguang's attention. Zhou Jian didn't want to leave any possibility for Sun Deguang to find him, so he said simply: "I sold it to the Bounty Hunter Association. I hope you can
Confidential."
"Of course we will keep it secret. The most important thing for the Bounty Hunter Association to do business is credibility. In fact, about 70% of treasure hunters have confidentiality requirements when selling items. I will take you to see the appraiser."
Although in the United States, the law stipulates that if something is lost for more than 50 years, it is considered ownerless and belongs to whoever gets it. However, this is not necessarily the case in other countries. For example, in China, cultural relics, fossils and other things are lost no matter how many years they have been lost.
, everything found will be returned to the state. The slogan of the United States is that private property is inviolable, while the slogan of China is that national interests are above all else.
In short, every country has different legislation in this regard, and the actions of treasure hunters often cross national borders. Once they find something lost by some big families or some national museums, it will inevitably cause controversy, so they all choose to keep it secret.
.
In fact, this is reasonable. After all, treasure hunters will encounter various risks during the treasure hunt, and they may die if they are not careful. Moreover, their treasure hunt often takes several years. After spending so much effort to find something,
Isn’t it enough to feed others without paying anything back to them?
Therefore, the Bounty Hunter Association has unwritten rules. No matter what the laws of the country where the treasure is located, if you want the treasure back, you have to spend money to buy it back. After all, if there are no treasure hunters, your treasure will not be recovered no matter how easy it is.
no good.
There are many jewelry appraisal rooms in the Bounty Hunter Association. Each appraiser has a separate room. Zhou Jian came to one of them. The person who received him in the appraisal room was a slightly bald middle-aged man.
He silently took the bag handed out by Zhou Jian, and Andy did not follow him to avoid suspicion.
The appraiser poured out the contents of the small bag, and the shiny diamonds rolled all over the table. Twenty-eight high-quality diamonds, each weighing about 5 carats. Even so, the appraisal
The teacher didn't show any excitement, obviously he was used to big scenes.
He just looked at Zhou Jian in slight surprise. He didn't expect that such a young man could actually get so many diamonds.
The appraiser took the instrument and started appraising the first diamond...
At the same time, Linda, who was drinking coffee at the Bounty Hunter Bank, dialed Chu Qingyun's phone number, "Dear Yun, long time no see."
"Haha, yes, it's been almost a year since I returned to China. How is my friend doing with you? He didn't cause any trouble?" Chu Qingyun had just finished a board meeting and was reviewing some information on imported drugs.
The new medicine she is producing now uses a plant that is banned in the country, and she is comparing several countries that grow this plant on a large scale to decide where to import it from.
"How could he cause trouble? That friend of yours is so powerful. He must be a master-level kung fu master in your country, right?"
"Haha, I don't know. Why did he get into a fight with someone in the United States?"
"He beat up an arrogant guy who made rude remarks. That person was at least a D-level bounty hunter, but he beat him like a sandbag until he was unable to fight back."
Chu Qingyun smiled helplessly, this Zhou Jian can really cause trouble, "Nothing happened, right? Will the person who was beaten let it go?"
"It's too late for that person to hide. How dare he cause trouble? Speaking of which, is he your boyfriend?"
"Uh..." Chu Qingyun felt ashamed, "Of course not. I asked him his age and he was only 18 years old."
"What's wrong with being 18? As long as you're strong, it's fine. Such a man feels very secure. Do you really not want it?"
Chu Qingyun was speechless for a while, "Linda, don't you want to pursue him? You are about to graduate from college, and if he is in school, he is just a freshman in college."
"Love knows no age or national boundaries. It's hard to find such a strong man."
"Linda, you don't like him just because he has great kung fu, do you?" Chu Qingyun felt unable to understand.
"Isn't it possible? I want to find a boyfriend who is better than me. None of the young men in college can match me. And he and I have a lot in common. We both like history and archeology, although we have a little disagreement about our opinions.
.”
Chu Qingyun patted her forehead, "But I don't think he is suitable for you."
"Why?"
Chu Qingyun was speechless for a moment. She blurted out this sentence. It seemed that deep down in her heart, she didn't want to see Zhou Jian being "picked up" by Linda. This kind of psychology was very strange, just like most men didn't want to see a
It feels like a pure and lovely young girl being pushed down by a wretched uncle in his twenties and thirties, unless of course that man is himself.
In Chu Qingyun's heart, Zhou Jian was a shy, untouched boy with a good character. With such a pure boy paired with a charming girl like Linda, she always felt uncomfortable.
When Linda pressed her, Chu Qingyun had no choice but to brazenly say: "Well... your personalities are not compatible. He should like gentle and virtuous girls."
"That's it, it doesn't matter. If we are together, I will try to change him, or change myself. How about it, dear Yun, won't you give me some encouragement?"
"Okay...then I wish you success..." Chu Qingyun said these words insincerely, almost adding "that's weird" in her heart.
"Chu, why don't you seem to be sincere in your blessing?"
"Uh...is there any?"
"Yes, do you like him too? It doesn't matter, I can compete fairly with you."
Chu Qingyun almost fell off the chair, "Please, he is only eighteen years old, I am already twenty-one!"
"What does this mean? Love knows no age or national boundaries. We have an old saying in the United States, 'It's more considerate to marry a mature woman.' If you don't want to pursue her, give it to me."
"Okay, okay, you can pursue me as you wish."
After hanging up the phone from Linda, Chu Qingyun felt a little confused. She knew that 18-year-old boys were too weak to resist women, especially a beauty like Linda. No man could resist the delicacies that came to her door.
lure?
Before Linda mentioned that she wanted to pursue Zhou Jian, Chu Qingyun had never thought about how she felt about Zhou Jian. She had only had three real contacts with Zhou Jian.
When entering a new dungeon, Zhou Jian saved himself from the boss, but that was only in the game, and Chu Qingyun didn't feel much. Later, Chu Qingyun made a bet with Zhou Jian, and lost the bet under impossible circumstances.
On an appointment, Chu Qingyun felt mysterious in Zhou Jianjian for the first time. Although she was secretly interested in Zhou Jian
He was a little angry about what happened in his bathroom, but it was not unacceptable. For the third time, Zhou Jian appeared in Chu Qingyun's life as a savior. He completed the impossible task, and in the process of completing the task, his
Chu Qingyun was also impressed by her ability to endure and judge.
However, although Chu Qingyun has a good impression of Zhou Jian, she has never thought of being his girlfriend. Chu Qingyun is a very conservative girl. She will not find a boyfriend just because she is lonely and wants to have fun.
If you want to find a man you can trust for life, Zhou Jian is too young.
He is only eighteen years old, and it will take another four years before he reaches the legal age for marriage...
