Chapter 272
"Sean that guy is so cunning, he ran away long ago, I just found out
" "After Goldman Sachs mentioned the group of violins, he took a few of his employees to the roof of the building to get on the helicopter instead of the original presidential one
" "We didn't know anything, we thought he and the group of violins were in the convoy"
Erin said annoyed, sounding a little depressed.
"Ugh!"
These guys in the conference room exclaimed in unison, and they were all stunned.
At this moment, there was a sudden roar of helicopter engines outside the window.
Although the sound is not loud, it can be heard clearly.
Hearing this sound, everyone immediately turned their heads and looked out the window.
The next moment, they see.
A silver-gray medium-sized helicopter is whizzing from the direction of the lower city and flying straight towards this high-end office building.
"No need to ask, it's Sean, that cunning guy is here,"
Charles said with a smile.
With his words, the rest of the people also laughed, and everyone let out a long breath.
Immediately after that, these guys reacted.
Xiao Ran came with the priceless set of violins, but there were still people trapped at the scene of the firefight.
Perhaps feeling that the smile was not appropriate, Charles quickly made up a few words.
"Alan, I saw that Sean's guy's helicopter and will arrive at our auction house soon
" "How are you doing over there, are there any injuries?" Who ambushed the escort convoy? The
next moment, Allen responded.
"We were riding in bulletproof cars, everyone locked the door at the first time, and no one was injured, so don't worry
" "Sean that guy not only deceived us, but also deceived those robbers!"
"Although those bastards were very firepower, they didn't take any advantage, and were killed several by
Sean's bodyguards" "Just now, those bastards blew open the back door of the armored escort vehicle, but it was empty inside, nothing
" "After finding out that they were fooled, those guys have begun to retreat, very embarrassed
" "Now not only Sean's bodyguards are attacking those guys, but the policemen who blocked the intersection have also joined the fight!"
At the same time that Allen introduced the situation, footage of the scene of the firefight also appeared on TV, which was taken from the air by a media helicopter.
It can be clearly seen that the intersection of 23rd Street and Fifth Avenue has been reduced to a battlefield of fierce firefights, thick smoke and gunfire like rain.
On the east side of 23rd Street, several cars are on the rampage and fleeing wildly.
Behind them are three large, full-size bulletproof SUVs, which are in hot pursuit, and from time to time they will accelerate to rush up to crash.
During the crazy chase, both sides kept firing, as if using 23rd Street as a battlefield.
Followed by several police cars, pulling sirens, also chasing the robbers who fled in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the conference room was stunned, all stunned in place, and stunned one by one.
But they, all those who were watching this scene, were stunned.
"Wow! Sean this guy is so crazy!
"He's only been in New York for a few days, and it's incredible how many things he has done!"
The director of the Philharmonic Orchestra said with emotion.
"yes! What a crazy guy!
Charles nodded in agreement, and the rest nodded as well.
Soon, more than ten minutes had passed.
The elevator doors open.
Xiao Ran, who was fully armed, took David and several company employees out of the elevator.
Also out was Marvin, who piloted the medium-sized helicopter parked on the rooftop tarmac.
At this time, David and several company employees were carrying either portable safes or cases for viola or cello.
These portable safes and piano cases contain the most valuable set of violins.
As Allen said on the phone.
After mentioning this set of violins at Goldman Sachs Bank before, Xiao Ran took David and several employees straight to the roof and left Goldman Sachs Bank by medium-sized helicopter.
The armored escort vehicles and several bulletproof SUVs driving out of the underground parking garage were heavily armed security personnel, waiting for the robbers to rush up and kill them.
Seeing Xiao Ran come out, Charles and the others, who were waiting in the elevator, immediately greeted them.
After everyone met, they exchanged pleasantries and introduced each other.
After a few polite words, Charles said with emotion:
"Sean, your hand is really beautiful, admirable!"
"Not only Allen, they were deceived by you, but also those fierce robbers, pounced!"
"Listen to Alan, those bastards have paid a heavy price, but they have not received anything, and they are running away in a hurry!"
Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"I am also helpless, today's Manhattan is too chaotic, it can be said that there are many dangers
" "More importantly, there are too many people staring at this group of violins, we have to be extremely cautious to avoid accidents
" "After finding that someone was tracking the escort convoy, I temporarily thought of this trick, fortunately, the effect was quite good"
Everyone at the scene secretly rolled their eyes and complained.
Thought of temporarily? Stop being funny!
You cunning fellow, you are simply planning to play everyone around!
The most unfortunate are those fierce robbers.
Those fools all died, threw down several corpses, and in the end they didn't even touch the edge of this set of violins!
Such a result is estimated to be able to kill a few robbers!
The next moment, the director of the Metropolitan Museum suddenly interjected.
"Sean, you're right, there are too many people staring at this group of violins, including our Metropolitan Museum
" "If you identify those three violins as indeed the aegean of the master Paganini, I wonder if you can transfer one to our museum?"
"As for the transaction price, we can sit down and talk slowly, I believe we can reach an agreement
" "The restoration and protection of the violin can be done by our museum itself, so that you can save some trouble!"
Hearing this, Charles immediately became anxious.
He was about to refute, but was stopped by Xiao Ran raising his hand.
"Thomas, your Metropolitan Museum wants to collect Paganini's violins, but it's not impossible!"
"I am very happy to make a deal with your museum
, we can exchange, trade with you, I only accept this way" "If you are willing to exchange the "White Map of the Night Illumination", the few pieces of Northern Song Dynasty official kiln and Ru kiln porcelain, and the Mingchenghua Doucai chicken cylinder cup and other treasures, we can sit down and talk
" "In that case, I can draw out a Paganini Stradivarius violin to trade with you"
Hearing this, Thomas was directly stunned, and his eyes were round.
After a moment, the guy came to his senses.
Immediately afterwards, he shook his head with emotion.
"Sean, you guy is so greedy and has an amazing appetite!"
"These treasures you named are the essence of Chinese antique relics and artworks in our collection, and they are the top antique artworks!"
"If we exchange these treasures for you, the collection of Chinese antique art in our museum will be much tarnished
" "I can't agree to your trading conditions, it seems that we can only try to see if we can get Paganini's violin from the auction!"
Xiao Ran looked at this guy and said with a confident smile:
"It's okay, Thomas, I believe that one day, we will sit down and talk about the exchange
" "At that time, these treasures I mentioned just now, you will willingly take them out and trade with me"
Thomas paused, and then laughed.
"Hahaha, I'm looking forward to one day
" "Then it depends on whether the chips you take out are weighty enough and can make our hearts move!"
Obviously, he did not take Xiao Ran's words to heart, and did not think that this kind of thing would really happen.
But where did he think that it would not be long before he willingly took out those top Chinese antique artworks and begged Xiao Ran to exchange!
As they spoke, their group had already walked into the large conference room of Bonhams Auction House.
After entering, Charles introduced several experts in antique musical instrument appraisal who were staying in the conference room.
Immediately afterwards, he informed the security services to increase their vigilance.
Just in case, people even locked the Bonhams elevator and stairwell.
When everything is ready, the appraisal work begins.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone at the scene, Xiao Ran picked up a portable safe and gently placed it on the conference table.
Then enter the fingerprint and password to open it.
Then, he took out a yellowed violin case from the portable safe and carefully placed it on the table.
"Gentlemen, please admire this Guarneri violin once used by the genius player Paganini!"
With that, he gently opened the violin case.
