The call didn't take long, and Li Yang quickly hung up.
"Let's go back first!"
Li Yang didn't explain anything, and Wang Jiajia and Liu Gang didn't ask any questions. They immediately walked back, preparing to get in the car and go back to the hotel.
In the car, Li Yang's face was still very ugly and dark.
After Lin Lang came out from Gu Dongcheng's place, he immediately told him the bad news. Lin Lang's exploration was successful, but unfortunately he underestimated Gu Dongcheng's greed.
After learning that the person who wanted the Star Chasing Sword was Li Yang, he opened his mouth like a lion.
Gu Dongcheng wants two artifacts, the Tian Cong Yun Sword and the Black Dragon Bracelet, to exchange for the Star Chasing Sword.
This also made Lin Lang almost vomit blood, and it was good that he and Ju Dongcheng didn't fall out on the spot. The following conversation was not necessary. After coming out, Lin Lang told Li Yang about the incident.
I couldn't explain clearly on the phone, so Lin Lang asked Li Yang to go back to the hotel to talk.
That's why Li Yang went back without saying a word. This was the most important thing about his trip to South Korea.
"Li Yang, I was careless this time!"
Lin Lang sighed when he saw Li Yang. He came back a few minutes earlier than Li Yang.
Lin Lang saw that the exploration was going well, so he revealed that the buyer was Li Yang. This was normal. After all, it was Li Yang who wanted to trade with Gu Dongcheng.
At that time, he was still thinking that if things went well, he would be able to get it done in the next two days, and they would all be able to go back early.
As for the museum activities, Lin Lang had long forgotten about them.
"Mr. Lin, don't say that. I didn't expect that his heart would be so dark!"
Li Yang shook his head, he understood what Lin Lang meant.
If Lin Lang didn't reveal Li Yang's identity and just came to see Ju Dongcheng in his name, he might be able to successfully trade with something else.
It doesn't matter even if you pay a price, but no one thought about it in advance. At that time, neither Li Yang nor Lin Lang realized what would happen if they changed people.
If Gu Dongcheng's heart was not so dark, this would have happened. Li Yang himself planned to pay a higher price than the value of this treasure, and Gu Dongcheng still took advantage.
But it's too late to say this now. Even Lin Lang, who has always been smart, never expected that Gu Dongcheng would dare to offer such a price after knowing that the buyer was Li Yang.
Tian Cong Yun Sword, that is the treasure that the Emperor of Japan wants to take away even in his dreams.
For this treasure, the Japanese have been dispatched many times, and Aoki Weiyang is still active, thinking of all possible ways to get the sword back from Li Yang's hands.
However, because of Li Yang's threat, neither Aoki Weiyang nor the Emperor dared to take drastic actions.
They cannot afford to have the Emperor's artifact destroyed.
Such a treasure is enough to sacrifice everything for the Japanese royal family. Gu Dongcheng dared to speak. Lin Lang didn't know what he was thinking at that time.
What made Lin Lang even more unexpected was that this artifact was not enough. He also proposed adding a black dragon bracelet.
The Black Dragon Bracelet, the top-level dragon stone bracelet, is the work of the new master Chen Wuji. Its magical features have been featured in the media and the Internet in many countries.
This in itself is already a priceless treasure that cannot be measured by money. Gu Dongcheng asked Li Yang to exchange these two treasures for his Star Chaser Sword. At that time, Gu Dongcheng's expression seemed as if he had lost a lot.
If Lin Lang hadn't been very well-educated, he would have swung his fist directly and hit him on the bridge of the nose.
"Hey, it's too late to talk about this now. Li Yang, do you have any other options? I think it will be difficult to exchange!"
Lin Lang sighed heavily, and with the price offered by Ju Dongcheng, there was no possibility of bargaining. Even if he asked for an exorbitant price, he would not be able to pay back the money on the spot.
What's more, he has such a dark heart and treats Li Yang as a villain. It is impossible for Li Yang to negotiate with him again.
"It's okay, there is still time, I believe there will be a solution!" Li Yang's mouth showed a trace of helplessness unnaturally.
Before coming, he and the old man had already reasoned out many possible things that could happen, and they also thought that Gu Dongcheng would open his mouth like a lion, but neither of them expected that this mouth would be so big.
However, Li Yang did have the idea that the exchange would not work out before.
If the exchange fails, other means can only be used, possibly some extreme means. None of these are what Li Yang wants, especially since this is still South Korea. If one is not good, it will also have an impact on himself.
It's just that when things got to this point, he couldn't help it anymore.
"Then are you going to the cocktail party tonight?"
Lin Lang asked again. In the evening meeting, there will indeed be some treasures of Gu Dongcheng on display. Gu Dongcheng is different from other collectors. He loves to show off.
He likes to display his treasures elsewhere to reflect his financial resources and collecting taste.
It was the same today. After receiving the invitation from the museum, he promised to bring out a hundred of his proud treasures. The list has been handed over to the museum. The value of these treasures is not low, and the people in the museum attach great importance to them.
In addition to exhibiting his treasures, there are also some small items donated by several other wealthy businessmen, which will be auctioned on site, and the money raised from the auction will also be donated for charity.
This is also Director Wu's idea, he wants to take this opportunity to improve the image of the museum.
Anyway, they are not the ones providing the money, so they can still gain a reputation, and they will not suffer any loss no matter how they look at it.
"Go, definitely go!"
Li Yang nodded. He had to go to the cocktail party in the evening. First, he was sure whether this sword was the real Star Chaser Sword. He couldn't be completely sure just by relying on the news. This was an opportunity for him to get up close and personal with the Star Chaser Sword.
Secondly, Li Yang also needs to make sure that the sword is well preserved.
After all, the other party also knew that this was one of the Three Tai'a Swords. The rumors about the Tai'a Sword included the underground palace of the First Emperor. If they believed this and forcibly destroyed the sword, they would be in big trouble.
Not only could Tai'a Sword not be restored smoothly, but the map of the First Emperor's underground palace might also have fallen into their hands.
"Okay, I'll go with you tonight. Let him be arrogant this time. When I get the chance later, I'll give him a good look!"
Lin Lang nodded and said something bitterly.
This time, Li Yang's exchange failed, but he was the one who lost the most face. He was the one who found the way, and could even be said to be the middleman. Gu Dongcheng made it clear that he didn't have any face left by offering such a condition.
At this time, Lin Lang already hated this greedy guy. If Lin Lang takes care of him, he will probably suffer a lot in the future.
People like Lin Lang are very hard to guard against when they seek revenge. Over the years, I don't know how many competitors have been in his hands, which is how he became famous.
"That's fine!"
Li Yang nodded again. Having Lin Lang following him would also bring him some convenience.
In order to bring back the Star Chasing Sword this time, Li Yang no longer thinks so much. As long as it does not violate the bottom line of principle, he will take advantage of any useful conditions.
Time passed slowly, and Li Yang and Li Yang did not go out for the entire afternoon.
Although the first battle was unfavorable, Li Yang was not discouraged, nor did he report the news to the old man. Li Yang did not want the old man to be angry because of such a greedy person.
Before the cocktail party in the evening, Director Wu personally came to Li Yang and Lin Lang and invited them to come over early.
The one he mainly wanted to invite was Lin Lang, but since he decided to improve the relationship with Li Yang, he naturally brought Li Yang with him. After all, Li Yang was also a new world celebrity in the circle.
Fifteen minutes later, Li Yang and Lin Lang appeared in the hotel's reception hall together.
At this time, there were still fifteen minutes before the reception. Li Yang and Lin Lang arrived relatively early, which made Director Wu feel very proud, and the smile on his face never disappeared.
Arriving at the hotel lobby, Li Yang had a slightly disappointed look on his face.
He didn't see Gu Dongcheng's exhibits here, and even though Li Yang turned on his special abilities, he couldn't find his treasure even though he searched the maximum range.
He saw a lot of dirty things.
This also made Li Yang feel even worse. After the good news, there was bad news one after another. Li Yang had not encountered so much bad news in a long time.
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Li, this is a famous collector in the Republic of Korea..."
"This is our famous connoisseur and collector in the Republic of Korea..."
Within a few minutes, Director Wu brought several people to introduce Li Yang and Lin Lang. Both of them responded with smiles, but they all looked absent-minded.
Most of these people got close to Lin Lang first, and then politely greeted Li Yang.
When they looked at Li Yang, they almost all looked at him with a little doubt and disdain. They had all heard of Li Yang's name, but unfortunately they had never seen him in person. After seeing him this time, they were just disappointed.
The reason is that Li Yang's age and Li Yang's identity as a Chinese made people here more or less look down upon him.
"Gu Dongcheng is here!"
Lin Lang suddenly said something in Li Yang's ear. A man in black in his sixties was smiling and walking outside the hall. The man in black had a smile on his face. Director Wu had already led many people to greet him in person.
Koo Dong-sung is much more famous than Director Wu in the Korean collecting community.
Li Yang nodded silently. This was the first time he saw Gu Dongcheng, but he had seen his photo before and knew what he looked like.
Knowing yourself and your enemy has always been what the old man asked Li Yang to do.
When doing anything, it is best to be fully prepared. The more prepared you are, the greater the possibility of success.
Looking behind Ju Dongcheng, Li Yang's brows twitched slightly.
Ju Dongcheng came, but his treasures did not come. This made Li Yang, who wanted to see the current situation of Star Chasing Sword, a little disappointed. If he had known this, he would have gone to visit with Lin Lang today.
Maybe Gu Dongcheng can find this sword at his home, even if he just takes a look.
"Mr. Lin, this must be Mr. Li Yangli?"
Ju Dongcheng, who had greeted Director Wu, casually glanced at the inquiry room. When he saw Lin Lang and Li Yang, his eyes lit up slightly and he immediately walked over.
