Yang Jing walked up with a smile on his face. Old Paul came up to him, whispered "thank you", and then shook hands with Yang Jing.
After shaking hands with the Mellon family members one by one, Yang Jing picked up the half-broken Luban box again. After taking a deep look at it, he put it down and took out a checkbook from his suit pocket. He smiled and said, "Richard, I'm sorry, I haven't applied for a checkbook at your Mellon National Bank, so I can only use the checkbook from Citibank."
Skaife laughed and said, "Cole, you will receive a credit card from Mellon National Bank in a while. It is the highest level credit card of Mellon National Bank. I hope you like it."
"Oh? Thank you then!" Yang Jing replied with a smile while writing the numbers.
Old Paul whispered, "Cole, you only need to write $120,000. $100 million doesn't count."
Skaife also said, "Cole, Uncle Paul is right, just listen to Uncle Paul. This box is not worth $100 million, and you just helped our family a lot. No matter what, we can't charge you so much money."
Hearing this, Yang Jing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly and whispered: "That's not necessary. Since I quoted this price, you have to pay the full amount. Don't worry, I won't be short of this little money."
Then, Yang Jing readily signed the number and his name on the checkbook, then tore off the cash check and handed it to Skaif.
Skaif was a little overwhelmed. He really didn't want to accept the check, but seeing that Yang Jing's expression was firm, he could only sigh and accept it.
Seeing that Skaife accepted the check, Yang Jing was also relieved. In fact, there was one thing he didn't say just now - this box itself is worth more than this amount of money!
It's not that Yang Jing wanted to be taken advantage of and had to give the Mellon family more than 90 million US dollars. It was that when Yang Jing picked up the Lu Ban box again just now, he subconsciously used his perspective skill again, and as a result, he vaguely saw a running script word "受" on the silk, which further confirmed his previous guess.
If that conjecture is true, then Yang Jing would be willing to pay for it even if it was $100 million, not to mention $10 billion.
And if the box really does contain clues related to that speculation, then buying the box for $100 million is a kind of respect for the box and the man who made it.
That treasure is absolutely priceless to the Chinese. If the 100 million dollars can buy a clue about that treasure, it is worth it. And if the thing in the box is really a clue to that treasure, Yang Jing would be willing to pay double or even five times the price!
Because that treasure should have such a high value. Although Yang Jing now holds a foreign passport, the blood of the descendants of Yan and Huang flows in his bones. In his eyes, that treasure cannot be replaced by any amount of money.
In fact, if Lawrence had not made a bid just now, Yang Jing would have taken the box. This must have been arranged by the master.
But since Lawrence has made a bid, Master Ming will not let him get it too easily. Isn't it just money? Just bid.
One hundred million dollars for a clue was just out of respect for the treasure. And Yang Jing felt that he should do so. As for helping the Mellon family, it was just a matter of convenience. Now that he had seen the box, Yang Jing would never allow it to fall into the hands of others.
Old Paul also sighed, but then he smiled and whispered, "Cole, do you recognize the origin of this box?"
Yang Jing put the checkbook into his suit pocket and shook his head, "How is that possible? I just think this box is very appealing, and Lawrence is so annoying, so I plan to teach that guy a lesson. Besides, shouldn't the Boston Consortium also learn some lessons?"
Yang Jing turned his head and looked at Skaife, then whispered: "Compared to today's auction, I hope that our KY Investment Fund and the Mellon family will have a deeper cooperation next year. Richard, in my plan, I intend to acquire several banks on the East Coast next year. The initial plan is Hartford National Company and Arlington Credit Bank. How about it? Are you interested?"
Hearing this, several people from the Mellon family looked at each other and smiled.
ps: I would like to thank "有梦不能实现" and "楼独身夜听雨" for their rewards of 1,000 each.
