"Earl Hill, Mr. Fisher, please calm down. Let me finish first." Looking at the two anxious people, Sun Jian gestured for them to calm down.
"I didn't say that I didn't want to help you. I just wanted to trade in another way.”Sun Jian said.
"Please tell me how you want to trade.”Twig Fisher said anxiously.
"You also know that I don't lack money now, so I want to change to another method.”Sun Jian looked at Twig Fisher and said.
"Barter? Mr. Sun, I don't quite understand what you mean.”Twig Fisher looked at Sun Jian in confusion.
Sun Jian smiled." What I mean is, we'll use the Chinese cultural relics in the British Museum to exchange for the cultural relics of the Ying Nation under Sylve Manor.”
"No, Mr. Sun, forgive me for not agreeing to your request. The cultural relics in the British Museum are an important part of our museum. Forgive me for not being able to exchange it with you." Twig Fisher rejected without hesitation. He had been working at the Louvre for decades. All the collections inside were like his children, and he did not allow anyone to take them away from him.
Moreover, the cultural relics in the museum were the cash cow of the British Museum. Now, countless people came to the British Museum to visit the cultural relics every year. It was one of the most important sources of income for the British Museum.
"If that's the case, then there's nothing else we can talk about." Sun Jian laughed. Mr. Twig Fisher, this is the only way I can trade. Since it's not possible, then forget it. I'll go down and take a look at my treasures first.”
After saying that, Sun Jian stood up and pretended to leave.
"Wait, Mr. Sun!" Twig Fisher quickly called out to Sun Jian.
"Mr. Sun, I know you Chinese have special feelings for those cultural relics and always want to take them back. But have you ever thought that only by putting those cultural relics in the British Museum can more people understand the history and culture of your country? This is a very good thing for your country. Those cultural relics could only be properly protected and maintained in the British Museum. Therefore, I hope that for the future of those cultural relics, you can consider it carefully.”Twig Fisher tried to convince Sun Jian.
"Mr. Twig Fisher, you've said too much. Our government has always wanted to get those relics back. After all, those cultural relics were lost by our ancestors. As descendants, we have the obligation to take them back. This was his duty. Also, I didn't intend to give those relics to the government for safekeeping. I want to collect them myself. Do you think I can't protect them well with my financial resources?”Sun Jian looked at Twig Fisher and said.
"But…those are the treasures of our museum.”Twig Fisher looked reluctant.
"Anyway, this is my condition. It's up to you whether you want to exchange or not.”Sun Jian said firmly.
Looking at Sun Jian's determination, Twig Fisher knew that if he didn't use the cultural relics to exchange for it, it would be impossible to get back the cultural relics. Even if they used the law, it would not work. After all, it was dug out from someone else's territory. Moreover, it was someone else who discovered it. Even if they fought to the end of the world, they would not be able to win this lawsuit.
After a long silence, Twig Fisher said in a hoarse voice,""Mr. Sun Jian, can you give us a few days to discuss it when we return?”
"Sure, come and find me anytime after you've discussed it.”Sun Jian nodded in agreement.
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
………………
Sun Jian and Earl Hill returned to the underground space, leaving Twig Fisher alone in the resting area.
Twig Fisher sat there in silence, his expression constantly changing. After a long time, he took out a phone and dialed.
"Mr. Prime Minister, I'm sorry. I didn't convince him. The deal didn't go through.”Twig Fisher said into the phone.
After a few seconds of silence, an old voice came from the phone."Is he not satisfied with the price?"
"No, it's not about the price. He said that he didn't want to sell those relics, and only wanted to trade them.”Twig Fisher said in a deep voice.
"Barter?" the Prime Minister asked.
"Yes, with the cultural relics of the government.”Twig Fisher said.
Hearing this, the voice on the phone immediately became excited."Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Those cultural relics are the emblem of the glory of the British Empire.”
Twig Fisher said helplessly,""However, he only accepts this kind of transaction.”
"Then can we use legal means to keep those cultural relics?”
"No, no matter how we fight, we will lose.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before he said,"Come back first. We'll discuss it.”
(Is there anyone who wants to give me a tip?？）
