The value of the Titanic was hard to say.
It was worthless, but in the eyes of some people and even some countries, it was a priceless treasure.
It was ridiculously expensive, but no country or consortium would be willing to pay such a high price to buy a ship that could not be operated.
To sum it up, those countries and consortiums would definitely not accept more than 10 billion USD.
This was also why Yan Zhe set the price range at 100 million to 10 billion USD. This was the result after the system's calculation.
In the end, after the votes of the audience from other countries, the price of 8.6 billion US dollars was the highest. This price was acceptable to Yan Zhe, England, and other countries, as well as those consortiums.
After all, 8.6 billion USD was not a small sum to salvage a sunken ship, even if the sunken ship had a strong background.
"Mr. Yanzhe, this 8.6 billion USD is not a small number. Can we give it to you in a few batches? Or exchange it with some other conditions?”
Seeing the price, Mary and the others discussed for a while before asking.
Indeed, 8.6 billion US dollars was not a small number. If converted to RMB, it would be 54.4 billion yuan. Although any country could take out such a huge amount of money in an instant, the key was that they could not spend so much money on a sunken ship, right?
Yan Zhe smiled and said,"I didn't expect you to pay me in cash." How about this? I remember that your Royal Museum of England still has a large number of Chinese cultural relics, right? Then, we'll trade for it. Take out Chinese cultural relics and national treasures of equal value in exchange for the Titanic!”
Yan Zhe didn't think he was a saint. He didn't use the Titanic to exchange for Chinese cultural relics because he wanted to be a saint and donate it to the country. He didn't have that kind of awareness.
However, if he could help his country, he would be very happy.
After using the Titanic to exchange for the cultural relics and national treasures of China, he would then sell them to the Chinese museum and collectors. In the end, the money was still the same, and he did not lose anything. At the same time, he could also get back the cultural relics and national treasures that had been stolen for the country and the people. It was the best of both worlds, so why not!
Hearing Yan Zhe's words, the three heads of state, as well as the consortiums and wealthy people who were involved, were very happy. To them, China's cultural relics and national treasures were good, but they had gotten tired of them after so many years. No matter how good they were, they could not be better than the Titanic. Using those Chinese cultural relics and national treasures that they were tired of to exchange for their country's Titanic was a very good deal for them!
Without hesitation, he agreed.
“6666! God Yan was awesome! I didn't expect God Yan to be so patriotic!”
"I feel that God Yan is not only patriotic, but also very smart! Using the Titanic to exchange for 8.6 billion US dollars worth of Chinese cultural relics, God Yan was probably planning to sell it to a museum or a private collector in China, right? He didn't lose anything, but he recovered the precious cultural relics that were stolen for our country!”
God Yan's diehard fans: " God Yan has never disappointed us fans. Let's not talk about anything else. I'll order one worth 100 million first. My grandfather is also a collector. He'll definitely like it! When he finds out about this, he might even add more. God Yan, I'll make a reservation first!”
Principal Wang: " How can I not be here? Dad, I know you're looking at it too. I'll also reserve antiques worth 100 million for you first.”
For Big Boss Wang, who had a small goal of 100 million yuan and a few billion yuan was just a medium goal, 100 million yuan was a slap to his face!
He immediately typed,"Book me one billion!" When the time comes, if there are better ones, I will add more!”
" As expected…poverty has limited my imagination…"
"Big Boss Wang is still more domineering!”
" One billion…I'm so sorry…"
Yan Zhe smiled when he saw the comments. These sellers were just small-time buyers. They only needed 10 billion RMB to sell the bulk of the money to the museum.
Just as these rich people made reservations for cultural relics of different values from the countless viewers, a super bright bullet screen appeared on the bullet screen.
Tao Ming: " Hello, Comrade Yanzhe. I'm the curator of the Palace Museum. On behalf of the China Cultural Relics Association, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your actions this time. Your patriotic behavior has deeply touched us. If you need to sell the Chinese cultural relics you exchanged this time, our Palace Museum, as well as other museum around the country, will accept them all. We will definitely not let you suffer a loss in terms of price!
"At the same time, the government has also given us a mission to ask if you need us to send the most professional antique appraisers to those countries to appraise the value of those cultural relics. Is it enough to reach the price of 8.6 billion US dollars?”
Seeing Mr. Tao Ming's bullet screen, Yan Zhe was delighted. There was no reason to reject it. With the help of these experts, those countries wouldn't be able to fool him. He immediately thanked them sincerely,"Thank you, thank you, of course!”
"Hehe, okay. Then we'll send a professional appraisal team to those countries to conduct the appraisal.”
"Sorry for the trouble. I'll cover all your expenses! In addition, I'll also cover the cost of transporting the cultural relics back!”
"Haha, that's easy, that's easy."
With these experts and the country helping him keep an eye on it, Yan Zhe was finally completely relieved. This was related to the return of China's cultural relics. The experts and the country would definitely not be careless about this matter. Since there was no need to worry, they could carry out the salvage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, next up, I will be salvaging the Titanic.”
Yan Zhe looked at the camera and said solemnly,"" Now, let me give you a serious warning. The salvage method I'm using is a huge air sac, but this kind of air sac can only last for a week. If you don't send a professional ship to support the Titanic after a week, the Titanic will sink again.
Therefore, I hope that you can arrive here in a week's time to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
Hearing Yan Zhe's words, the leaders of England and other countries became serious. They typed that they were already sending ships and would set off in three hours at most. They would definitely arrive within a week.
Seeing this, Yan Zhe didn't say anything more. He pretended to turn around and go into the warehouse to get something. In fact, he took out the air bag from the system backpack. The air bag was indeed only the size of a backpack and wasn't heavy.
He put on the air bag, put on his diving suit again, and went into the water again.
