Li Mo looked intently at the representative of the French National Library. They had a collection of really good things from China.

"Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace" printed on silk in the Qing Dynasty, "Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace" in the Qing woodcut, forty copperplate prints of the Western Buildings such as Haiyantang, Castiglione's "Gedeng E La Chai Camp" and "The Chrysanthemum Labyrinth of the Old Summer Palace", etc.

These masterpieces, originally collected in the Old Summer Palace, were looted overseas, and finally entered the hands of the French Emperor Napoleon III.

During the first three days of negotiations, the working group also listed many national treasures that they wanted to exchange, but unfortunately at least 80% of them were cut off.

If these masterpieces of Yuanmingyuan can all be returned to China, it would be enough for him to open a Guyunxuan Yuanmingyuan Pavilion. Just thinking about it would make people excited and full of emotions.

"Boss, what he means is that you can only choose one of the three Qing silk editions and Qing woodblock prints of "Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace", and the forty copperplate prints of the Western Buildings such as Haiyantang. "Old Summer Palace Chrysanthemum Labyrinth Map" can only choose one of the two, and the rest of the list can only choose ten items."

The representative of France awaited his reply.

Compared with the results of the previous three days of negotiations, this time it is indeed a bit more relaxed.

Li Mo thought for a while and said to Qu Yang next to him: "Go over and ask the representative of the British Museum. I want to exchange all the artworks selected by the French National Library with them. If they are willing, we can talk about it in detail."

"Yes, boss."

Qu Yang glanced at the short and fat man, and then walked out of the meeting room. The French translator quickly translated what Li Mo had just said to the representative.

Slap, Humpty Humpty slammed the table, glared at Li Mo and growled.

"Mr. Li, we are very sincere, but the sincerity you have shown is very disappointing. I am not only disappointed in you, but also disappointed in your country."

boom-

Li Mo also slapped the table suddenly, the sound was not crisp, but the table couldn't withstand the impact and broke apart, the mineral water on the table, the cups were overturned.

He is tall and straight, with his head raised slightly and staring at him with a downcast gaze: "If you dare to roar in front of me again, I will depose you. You know better than anyone how those national treasures in your library came to be." .And the artwork in my hand is open and aboveboard, bought from the London antique market in a dignified manner."

"The reason why I want to sit here with you to discuss the exchange is because in your eyes, it is a national treasure of art, and in my eyes it is not as good as shit. I only represent myself, not the country. If you want If you want to change, just sit down and talk properly, if you don’t want to change, get out immediately.”

"No matter how much is left that has not been exchanged, once the negotiation is over, I will destroy the rest in front of everyone. Keeping it in my hands will only dirty my hands and my eyes. Especially you Fatty, I will inform you French people when the time comes that it is because of your arrogant attitude, arrogance, and lack of sincerity that eventually led to the destruction of that artwork, and you just wait to be cursed by everyone for the rest of your life."

Li Mo's imposing manner was overwhelming, and his eyes were extremely fierce. He had beaten and maimed others with his own hands, and he was full of evil spirit invisible.

"Everyone is in a bad mood now. Today's negotiation is over. If you want to continue talking, I will come again tomorrow. If you don't want to talk, I will burn all the artworks publicly the day after tomorrow. We can't appreciate your beauty, it's ugly dross."

Li Mo put aside his harsh words, turned around, kicked open the door of the meeting room and walked away, leaving a roomful of people staring. Especially the representative of the French National Library, sweating profusely, looked at the table that had been broken into two sections, and thought about the young eyes and tone just now, and felt shuddering on a hot day.

The others were silent and only communicated silently with their eyes.

In the meeting room next door, a man in his forties showed approval. They are all on their own territory, how can they be so arrogant and domineering.

"You've all seen it, you've done three days of work is not as effective as Li Mo's one hour. What burden do you have, is there only a little credit left in your head? You think that if you just give in, the superior will be satisfied ? Think carefully about what to do next."

Li Mo was very angry.

He drove straight home, not answering anyone who called. He didn't answer the phone, which immediately made many people uneasy.

What Li Mo did was to win glory for the country, and many people above were watching the development of this matter. If he was really angry and the matter ended, he would tell everyone clearly that the members of the working group involved in the negotiations were really incapable of taking on heavy responsibilities.

The next day, Li Mo didn't turn on his phone until after the exercise. He ignored those missed calls and called Chen Xiaojun instead.

"Little uncle, they are all honest, when do you think it will start today?"

"Starting at nine o'clock, each house takes 20 minutes. If it is outdated, it means giving up automatically. I don't have time to spend nonsense with them."

"Okay, I'll contact them right away."

The fifth round of negotiations officially started, and they were all one-on-one negotiations.

The first one is the representative of the National Library of France. He has a very correct attitude today. Li Mo should just forget what happened yesterday. He should laugh or fight.

"Mr. Li, after careful consideration this afternoon, we also expressed our greatest sincerity. There are two ways. First, the Qing silk version and the Qing woodcut "Forty Scenes of the Old Summer Palace", and the forty copper engravings of Haiyantang and other Western Buildings. There are also Castiglione's "Gedeng E La Chai Camp" and "Old Summer Palace Chrysanthemum Labyrinth", you can choose three, and you can choose another thirty from the list later."

"Second, if you transfer another piece of oil painting and two pieces of sculpture, we will agree to the list conditions you set out, and the agreement must be signed in an official capacity."

Li Mo didn't speak, but thought for a while before saying: "The exchange is based on the second item. I have 17 oil paintings and 25 sculptures in my hand. Not every museum is able to reach an exchange condition with me." of."

"Okay, in your words, we have a happy cooperation."

After the first wave of representatives left, Li Mo checked that the time was less than ten minutes.

"Boss, it's still very useful to have such a big fire yesterday. I think they are also very honest and well-mannered. Today is a good start."

"Well, in fact, Britain, France, the United States and Japan have the most collections of our national treasures. For example, the museums in the Netherlands and Italy who also came here this time, they can't exchange the corresponding top-level national treasures, so let's keep close to the representatives of the museums of Britain and France. "

The talks and judgments continued intermittently until after four o'clock in the afternoon, when Li Mo finally walked out of the meeting room with a bottle of mineral water. Qu Yang and Chen Xiaojun followed behind, and behind them came Steven and the translator, who represented private identities. Their faces could not control the excitement and joy.

"Mr. Lee is a real gentleman."

Steven praised sincerely, and the translator on the side nodded in approval.

"Boss, all the negotiations have ended, what should we do next?"

"Rearrange the results of the negotiations and hand them over to Bureau Qin, and let them do the rest. After all, there are many aspects involved, and we have no credibility if we do it privately."

"Understood, I'll do it right away."

Chen Xiaojun turned to another conference room with a stack of documents in his arms, and everyone in the working group was waiting there.
