Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 350: Targeted by a polar bear
1 pounds is nothing to Chu Xiangqian, but the young man just said that he can trade again tomorrow, which made Chu Xiangqian vaguely realize that this guy's accomplices are definitely not just the mole in the museum.

There's a good chance there's a whole team behind you.

However, Chu Xiangqian did not doubt that there was a gang behind the other party.

Let me put it this way, the people working in the museum are all knowledgeable people and would not be stupid enough to cooperate with gangsters.

Since he has always done well, he must have the strength to make gangsters worry.

However, Titmouse followed the man.

Ten minutes later, Titmouse stopped outside a cafe on Bramton Street and stared at the young man sitting on a small table outside the shop.

Half an hour later, just when Chu thought the other party just wanted to take a lunch break, he saw a middle-aged man coming over and sitting at another table.

I ordered some coffee and food and ate and drank while reading the newspaper.

If tits hadn't seen the two of them talking across the aisle from time to time, Chu Qianqian wouldn't have been sure that the two were having sex.

Leaving the young man behind, Chickadee followed the middle-aged man this time.

But what Chu Xiangqian didn't expect was that the other person was not from the Daying Museum, but had entered the Victoria and Albert Museum.

When most people hear the name of this museum, they will most likely think that the We&A Museum is a small museum.

But in fact, this museum is the second largest national museum in England.

It is said that there are more than 200 million collections hidden inside, including a large number of cultural relics from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Chu secretly cursed himself before, being led astray by the news from his past life. He only focused on the Daying Museum, but forgot that there were many other museums in London.

Since there are so many cases of tampering and theft in the Daying Museum, there will also be desperate people in the We&A Museum.

And because it is ranked second and receives less attention than the Daying Museum, it may be easier to steal some things and get out.

In addition, the Chinese antiques in this museum are only a small category, and the collection level is not high.

After collecting a lot of Chinese antiques, I might be able to get a lot of European and American oil paintings.

During the day, Chu Qianqian passed the sight of the tit, and even let the tit stop on the sills of windows to stare, but never saw where the museum's warehouse was.

But it's right to think about it. The museum's defense may have many loopholes for insiders.

But to outsiders, even though they know nothing about it, their defense is still very high.

Chu Xiangqian never thought that he could easily enter the museum's warehouse for the first time.

After the museum closed at 5 p.m., I actually saw the middle-aged man chatting for a while with a driver who drove a van into the museum.

Then several wooden boxes were pushed out on a cart and put into the car and taken away.

Chu Xiangqian suddenly became excited. From this, it can be seen that there are at least several people involved in stealing and selling antiques in this museum.

But everything has two sides. The more people involved, the higher the possibility of leaks.

Titmouse immediately followed the van all the way to a pier on the Thames River.

At night, Chu Qianqian quietly sneaked into the dock and pried open several boxes. As expected, there were dozens of Ming and Qing porcelains inside.

After checking one by one, they are indeed genuine antiques.

At 10 a.m. the next day, Chu Xiangqian, put on makeup again, appeared in the tavern on time.

After seeing the young man, he didn't say much, just nodded, got up and walked out of the bar.

Chu Qianqian followed the other party unhurriedly, walked all the way to three blocks, and as expected, stopped at the pier next to the Thames River.

The young man pointed to a seven- to eight-meter-long sailing fishing boat on the pier, “Everything is inside, and you can take the boat away after paying.

If you don't want the boat, just park the boat back after you've taken your things away. "

Chu nodded before, and before boarding the boat, he looked at the young man and asked, "How much does the stuff on the boat cost?"

The young man was stunned, "Yesterday you gave me 1 pounds. Based on the 40% deposit, there were a total of 3 antiques on board worth [-] pounds.

If you could transport these to East Asia, they would be worth at least £1. "

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but be overjoyed. He bought Tianchao antiques from Norton at market prices.

But when you buy it from these people, it only costs 3% of the price.

In the future, the number of transactions will increase, and the number of one-time transactions will increase, and the price will definitely be able to be suppressed.

Chu Xiangqian immediately decided not to take action against these people.

There are more than just Ming and Qing antiques in the Wei&A Museum.

There are 2 million items registered, and there are definitely more that are not registered.

Of course, of the more than 200 million antiques, only some are from China, including some from island countries, and the rest are all from European and American collections.

In other words, the collection of this museum is more European and American.

First spend tens of thousands of pounds to buy hundreds of Ming and Qing antiques from these people.

In a few years, you might be able to buy thousands of them.

But think about it, it's impossible. If you steal thousands of pieces, it will cost you money and life.

You can only get exquisite products from museums.

Get more antiques from Europe, America and island countries. After you build a museum, you can put those antiques from island countries on public display.

Just thinking about how angry he was when he was little, Chu Xiangqian felt relieved.

He smiled and took out 3000 pounds, "2 pounds is the balance, and 1 pounds will be sent to Hong Kong Island for me. How about it?"

"This,,,".

These words immediately made the young man's face panic, but Chu Qianqian felt tight in his heart.

He cursed secretly, could it be that someone deliberately used antiques to seduce him?

If you think about it carefully, it's really not impossible.

People from MI6 had checked on him before in Hong Kong Island. Now that he was in London, he had entered their home. It would not be difficult to have any plans against him.

When I met the young man in front of him, his expression immediately changed when he heard that he asked them to transport the antiques to Hong Kong Island.

Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but start to wonder whether MI6 or some other agency was testing him on how to transport things out of London.

Or how to get stuff into London.

Chu Qianqian sneered. There were indeed many flaws in taking things from the Novice Village warehouse to the real world.

But conversely, in this era where there is no surveillance, the first surveillance satellite was successfully launched only in 57, and satellites cannot transmit images wirelessly, it is extremely difficult for outsiders to discover how they transport things to a certain place.

In addition to doubting MI5 and MI6, Chu Xiangqian also thought of the red polar bear that had already infiltrated into the English intelligence agency.

Given the importance polar bears attach to England, someone might have passed this information back to Moscow about him and Margaret living on the ranch.

Chu Qianqian met the young man in front of him and hesitated and said with a smile, "Don't you have that ability?" "Sorry," Connor followed Chu Qianqian's words and pretended to be helpless and said, "Sir, if we can Just send these things out of England casually, and your business has already reached Europe and the United States.

Where will these treasures be sold at 3% of the market price? "

Chu Qianqian smiled and secretly thought that this guy still showed his flaws. Saying 'we' would at least make him sure that the middle-aged man in the We&A Museum was not a lone wolf.

By keeping an eye on that guy, there is a high probability that you can find out who his upline is, or who he is connected to.

But if you think about it carefully, this kind of information seems to be of little use to the mainland.

And although polar bears will fall out with China in the future, the existence of polar bears is good for China.

After all, England and the United States these days have always regarded polar bears as their number one opponents.

Most of the energy is focused on the polar bear, so the pressure on China will not be so great.

Chu quickly gave up his plan to keep an eye on this group of people, and his main goal was to get the 7090 computer first.

Directly handing the 3 pounds in his hand to the young man, Chu said with a smile, "1000 pounds is enough to buy this boat, right?"

Connor nodded quickly.

Chu previously extended his hand, “It’s a pleasure to cooperate, but if you still have the goods next time.

I suggest you take the boat to the outlet of the Thames River and we can trade at sea.And I want £5 of antiques.

The best ones are from China and island countries.I'll also get one or two pairs of European oil paintings for me to look at. "

Connor was delighted. There was a positioning device on the sailboat. As long as the person hid the antique, he could easily catch him.

Moreover, the other party also said that next time they trade at sea, maybe they can use some means to arrest everyone in the name of the English Coast Guard.

As long as someone is caught, there will be no secrets.

It's a pity that if Chu Xiangqian didn't have more important things to do, otherwise, the ones he would catch first would definitely be Connor and his group.

Because there is no surveillance these days, even agents are often not as vigilant as expected.

Connor hurriedly shook hands with Chu Qianqian, "In three days, we will prepare 5 pounds of antiques. And as you said, we will trade at the outlet of the Thames River."

Chu shrugged forward, "Three days are a bit tight. Just give me a call. I'll let you know when I'm ready."

Connor nodded hurriedly and told Chu Qianqian his contact information. He watched him get on the boat, start the motor, and drive away the sailing hybrid fishing boat.

What the people behind Connor didn't expect was that Chu had actually driven the boat straight to the east of the Thames River.

A van following on the shore could only follow it all the way to the outlet, otherwise it would be too far away and the tracking signal would not be received.

In the end, I watched the sailboat drive all the way north, and gradually could no longer receive the signal.

Since Chu Qianqian suspected that he was being watched, he naturally asked Titmouse to keep an eye on the back of the boat and both sides of the river.

That van followed me for more than three hours, and it was impossible not to notice it.

Since the other party was driving on the south side of the river, after leaving the seaport, Chu Xiangqian naturally walked north along the coastline.

Unless this car can fly, there is no way it can cross the several kilometers long exit sea and continue to follow its own ship.

Chu Xiangqian also understood that the tracking and surveillance equipment of this era, even if it was for military use, was definitely not very effective.

There is a distance of several kilometers, and no signal can be received.

After sailing along the coast for more than 30 nautical miles, Chu Qianqian drove the boat to the bottom of a cliff, dropped the anchor, and then went to see the 40 Chinese antiques in the cabin.

After confirming that it was the batch he had seen last night, Chu Xiangqian felt relieved.

Not to mention, the quality of the antiques produced by Connor's group is indeed good.

The 40 antiques are all from the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty and the Jiajing and Xuanden years of the Ming Dynasty. Even in this era, they are all high-quality products.

It's just that among this group of people, there are people who work in museums. It's just a dream to pick up national treasure-level porcelain.

When I looked at this batch of antiques last night, I received an average of 19 gold coupons.

The antiques with 760 gold coupons were put into the Novice Village warehouse, and the aperture expanded 7.6 meters to a radius of 571 meters.

I took the tits into Novice Village and walked around the aperture circle. There was nothing new in the southeast and west sides. While the forest in the north had more trees, there were also 100 more rubber trees.

Including the previous 500, that is, 6 rubber trees, the natural rubber produced in one day has become 6 tons.

After collecting all 100 rubber trees, Chu Qianqian released the titmouse and circled around the sailboat.

I started looking for bugs, trackers and the like.

Follow the wires to find it. It's actually not difficult to find.In just half an hour, I found a tracker as big as four fingers in the cabin lampshade.

Now Chu Xiangqian was certain that someone was really targeting him.

I couldn't help but regret a little. If I hadn't ditched the van following me and parked the ship in a port more than ten kilometers away from the sea, I might have been able to follow the people in the van and find out who this group of people were.

But then I thought about it, it was impossible for the MI5 people to allow a mole to steal and sell antiques to appear in the Wei & A Museum.

Thinking about it this way, the probability of polar bears is even greater.

Of course, nothing is absolute.

Chu Qianqian thought for a while and simply drove the ship into the sea.

After making sure no one was around, he put away the anchor, went under the cabin, and used an ax to break open the bottom of the sailboat.

While it still takes some time for the sea water to fill the cabin, start the motor and cross the cliff area on the shore.

On the shore of a gentle area, he turned the rudder of the boat to the east and let the boat sail towards the European continent. He jumped off the boat and spent ten minutes swimming to the shore.

He took out his bicycle from the warehouse and followed the tit towards the small town not far away.

By the way, let the tit watch the place where it landed to see if anyone is following it to check.

Fortunately, the surveillance capabilities of this era are indeed far less powerful than imagined.

By the time Chu Qianqian sat in the ranch and drove to pick up his car, it was already past 6 p.m. when he returned to the ranch.

When Margaret saw him coming back, she was so happy that she asked Nata to prepare dinner.

Around 8pm, for the English, dinner is actually an hour early.

Tea time is at 4 or 5 pm, and many nobles still maintain the habit of having dinner at 9 pm.

In the next few days, Chu Xiangqian didn't care about the second transaction.

Either stay in the pasture and practice equestrian skills with Margaret, or watch the champion knight who has returned to the manor next door train.

Or go to London and visit several attractions with Lan Gang and others, and wait until the five of them plan to visit Stonehenge and other non-London attractions.

Chu Xiangqian returned to the ranch again.

The group of polar bears were so depressed that some people even suggested that they simply summon a swallow to come close to Chu Xiangqian.
