Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure
Chapter 53 Xi Jiapan
"I, I don't understand what you are saying. Who is Yang Ye? I don't know him."
Xu Yin noticed the change in his expression and thought to himself that something was wrong. He quickly lowered his head and pretended to drink tea while replying vaguely.
"It seems so." The curve of Bai Xi's mouth deepened a little, and his eyes were burning. "I'm afraid that the news that I live here was also told by Yang Ye. You didn't come here to eat at all, you just came to see if you could run into me."
Bai Xi felt that her thoughts were very clear, and her genius-level intelligence began to show its power. Since landing in the port city, all the information began to be pieced together and summarized in her mind.
"You said you exchanged fake artifacts for real ones from some foreign museums and sent them back to China. I believe this because if it weren't for that, Lu An wouldn't have anything to do with you.
But when you talk about protecting the cultural relics of the Xia Dynasty, please stop flattering yourself. You just want money. It's nothing more than that the collecting trend has been on the rise in China in recent years, and the bids are much higher than those abroad, right?
From this perspective, the reason you want to sell the Xijia Plate is obvious. You want more money, enough to last you the rest of your life, and that's obviously something Fujii can't give you."
Bai Xi paused, said a lot, felt a little thirsty, and stopped to drink a sip of tea.
Since she started to express her speculation, Xu Yin, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up and said in a hoarse voice: "This is just your speculation, one-sided statement. What can you do to me if I don't admit it?"
Bai Xi smiled when he heard this and put down the cup in his hand: "Your mental state is good, but it's a pity that your teammates don't have such a good mentality. I asked someone to check on Yang Ye last night.
Guess what, he has a flight at 12 o'clock today. I guess he didn't tell you this?
But don't worry, my bodyguards have already stopped him, and you should be able to see him soon."
Xiao Rui cooperated and turned the computer over. There was a photo on the screen. The person in the photo was none other than the pale-faced Yang Ye, while Zhao Haicheng and Wu Mengda stood on his left and right.
After seeing the photo, Xu Yin finally lost his temper and couldn't help but curse him as a waste, but he still held on to the last glimmer of hope.
"Miss Bai, aren't you afraid that we'll both be destroyed and that you'll just destroy the Xi Jia Plate?!"
"Don't pretend to be a desperado. You don't have the guts. You can give it a try. If you destroy the Xi Jia Plate, I don't think I'll have to do anything. There are plenty of people who want to make you suffer."
Bai Xi was not afraid at all and directly pointed out the deepest fear in his heart.
"Now, I give you two choices. One is to hand over the Xi Jia Plate intact, and I will give you 100 million Hong Kong dollars to buy your life. You can continue to live a prosperous life, and just tell others that the Xi Jia Plate is still in your possession.
Another thing is, I will hand you over to the judicial authorities, and you will spend the rest of your life in prison. Oh..."
Bai Xi seemed to have recalled something and sneered disdainfully, "You can also choose to fight to the death. I don't mind seeing how long you can hold out against the Sakura people."
Xu Yin seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit, and collapsed. After a long silence, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Miss Bai, you win. I choose the first one."
"Very good." Bai Xi raised his hand, "Hongxiu, give the phone back to him."
Xu Yin was shocked. He touched his body and found that his cell phone had been taken away when he was stopped by the female bodyguard. Even if he wanted to fight to the death, he had no chance.
So, Miss Bai actually only gave him one choice from the very beginning.
"...Ms. Bai, I admire you." Xu Yin was really convinced this time. He picked up his phone and made a call. After saying a few words in a language he couldn't understand, he hung up the phone and looked at Bai Xi cautiously.
"Miss Bai, the Xijia Plate will be delivered shortly. What did you promise me?"
"Don't worry, I'm a trustworthy person. I'll naturally transfer the money to you after I verify everything." Feeling a little hungry after drinking too much tea, Bai Xi picked up a snack on the table, took a bite, and frowned at the sweetness. "But I'm also curious, how did you choose me to be this scapegoat?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yin also smiled bitterly and slowly told the whole story.
In fact, at the beginning, Xu Yin had no intention of doing this. He just wanted to steal the Xi Jia Plate back and find an opportunity to sell it again. However, at the auction, he saw Bai Xi spending a lot of money to buy the bronze ware.
Later, he learned from Yang Ye that Bai Xi came for Xi Jia Pan. In addition, when he traded with her before, he felt that she was a rich sucker.
Unable to control his greed, he first got Bai Xi's residence from Yang Ye, and then shook off his other accomplices and came to find Bai Xi by himself. His original intention was to complete the transaction with Bai Xi and leave directly by water, thus hiding his identity from then on.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xi was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. He didn't get any money, but he got himself into trouble.
As for Yang Ye, who was more of a hindrance than an aid, strictly speaking, he was not his accomplice. Xu Yin had only bribed him to provide some security time and blueprints.
What a greedy human nature!
After listening to Xu Yin's statement, Bai Xi shook his head and sighed.
......
after an hour.
The people arranged by Xu Yin delivered Xi Jia Pan to the hotel entrance. Captain Cao went down to conduct a security check and then brought the person and the suitcase up together.
Bai Xi looked at the underage child in front of him, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Xu Yin with some hostility.
You still employ child labor?!
"Miss Bai, he's a mercenary I bought in Vietnam. He's also my bodyguard overseas. Even though he's less than sixteen years old, he's taken a lot of lives. He's very handy."
Xu Yin understood Bai Xi's expression and quickly waved his hand.
Bai Xi looked at the boy in front of him with a complicated expression. He was still childish but his eyes were like a pool of stagnant water. For the first time, he felt the huge disparity between the living environment at home and abroad.
Growing up in the peaceful environment of Xia Country, I forgot that this world is actually a cannibalistic place.
Bai Xi was in a trance for a moment, and his desire to make the motherland strong became stronger. He looked up and gestured. Captain Cao immediately understood, took the box from the boy's hand, checked it again to make sure there was no problem, and put the box on the table.
As the box was opened, the bronze ware that had spanned thousands of years from ancient times to the present day appeared again before the eyes of future generations.
It has an open mouth and shallow belly, a narrow square lip, a slightly concave inner bottom, a pair of attached ears that protrude above the mouth of the plate, and each ear has a pair of horizontal beams connecting to the edge of the plate. The ring foot is incomplete.
The abdomen is decorated with curved patterns, and the ears inside and outside are decorated with heavy ring patterns. It is simple and plain, and the plate is full of inscriptions.
Every inscription and every pattern carries the weight of a thousand-year-old culture.
Bai Xi took the gloves handed to him by Xiao Rui and slowly covered his hands with them.
