Chapter 613: The Hunter Becomes a Fat Sheep
Let Katalia not have to see the whole picture of the object emitting golden light, and tell her based on experience that it is definitely a police badge.
After a little thought, it was definitely FB1.
The badges of most police officers in the United States are oval, and the badges of township police are generally pentagonal.
Although FB1 also has an oval shape, but the number is very small, and the biggest difference between the two is that there must be a bald eagle with wings spread on the top of the FB1 police badge.
And they are used to pinning their police badges on their waists, and if the New York policemen travel out of New York, the possibility of wearing a police badge is definitely not high.
Not to mention that because of the issue of law enforcement power, 99% of the interstate operations are FB1.
During the two hours of the flight, Catalia, who was wearing sunglasses, noticed that the two guys were pretending to be unintentional, with their heads facing the direction where Fred was sitting. After more than 5 times, she immediately understood that things were troublesome.
Two hours after the plane landed, in the Long Island Manor, Li Changheng who received a call from Lao Tu hung up.
He walked into the study and dialed back through the confidential line, frowning, wondering why people from FB1 were after Fred, or the Manzoni family.
He couldn't figure it out for a while, and he kept knocking on the desk violently, but Old Tu's voice came from the microphone, "Boss, could it be because the first director of FB1 passed away in May this year.
This is what forced FB1 to use it to fight against the Gray Hands that became stronger because of Hoover to restore its reputation and maintain FB1's rights?
As soon as Li Changheng heard what Old Tu said, he immediately felt that FB1 was staring at Fred, and it might really be the same as what Old Tu said.
In the United States, there have always been rumors that Hoover has controlled the upper echelons of the United States, and the gray hands have Hoover's handle.
It took more than two decades for the Gray Hands to rise rapidly, largely due to Hoover's inaction and even collusion with each other.
Now that Hoover, who has grasped the handles of many dignitaries, dies, FB1 is facing a crisis of being dismembered. If it finds trouble with politicians and the upper class, it is because it thinks that it died not fast enough.
As for intelligence outside the United States, FB1 dare not intervene even if it wants to.
After all the calculations, there is only the Gray Hand Party, a group that is large enough and has a bad reputation. Once it is eliminated, it will definitely be praised by ordinary people.
And Fred, who has the most famous reputation and the most brutal methods in more than 20 years, and is the number two man of the Manzoni family, will naturally become the primary target of FB1.
Telling Lao Tu to wait for his new order, he hung up the phone and thought for a while before Li Changheng picked up the phone again and called Tommy Reeves, Chief Prosecutor and Assistant Office Director of the U.S. Department of Justice.
Three hours later, a medium-sized private plane landed at a private airport in New York.
Li Changheng personally picked up Tommy, went to Buffalo, New York, boarded a fishing boat, and talked for 3 hours at sea before leaving.
But Tommy left with a suitcase in his hand, which kept him in a good mood for the next few days.
And Li Changheng will give the money directly, the reason is that he has given it several times in the past.
And to be honest, UBS's private account needs to be kept more confidential than cash.
Americans are not ignorant of the existence of UBS and various offshore islands, which have led to a large number of tax evasion and transfer of black interests.
But it is not that simple to check UBS, but if you know the exact account number, then according to Swiss law, as long as you can provide clear evidence of a crime, and such evidence is also a crime in Switzerland, then UBS must cooperate with the investigation .
Tommy, who is a boss of the Ministry of Justice, has more experience and familiarity with how to avoid investigation than many lawyers and accountants who specialize in this kind of food.
The next night, Li Changheng looked at Ai Wen in his study and couldn't be sure, but because he had Song Gaozong's seal, he felt that it must be the "Sunset Returning to Fishing Picture" of the Song Dynasty.
If the authenticity of this painting is correctly determined, the uniqueness alone can confirm that it is definitely a national treasure.
A picture of Tang Bohu's spring outing on the side is not so dazzling.
After all, there are more than 600 paintings of Old Tang that can be verified. It is hard to say the artistry of the two, but they are incomparable in terms of the number of surviving paintings.
After thinking about it, Li Changheng still felt that the things of the Celestial Dynasty should be stored on Hong Kong Island. When the time came, the things would be equivalent to returning to his homeland.
Of course, if you want him to donate it, you must exchange it at an equal value.
The biggest possibility is that he will still store it in the private museum that has not yet been approved for establishment.
Now that he got the antique, within a few days, Li Changheng showed up at the Giants Stadium with Judd.
Then after the game, when the media pestered Judd to interview him, this guy who had no acting training, probably because of his status as a prince, had a natural arrogance in his tone of voice and expression.
He actually easily convinced the people staring at him that even though they hadn't reached an agreement with Li Changheng, their personal relationship was already very good.
As a result, it was the Manzoni family and Fred who were afraid that Judd would really persuade Li Changheng to invest in a Las Vegas casino together, and became anxious.
After finding Ivan, he was forced to divert Judd's attention to the Atlantic Ocean as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Aiwen and Judd decided to act together because Li Changheng liked the two ink paintings and received a direct reward of 300,000 US dollars.
The target is placed in the hands of the Manzoni family, the antique collaterals received by the Celestial Dynasty over the years.
Led by Ai Wen, Hilde acted as an interpreter, digging out old houses in New York City, that is, looking for antiques in those long-standing mansions that have been lived by Chinese Americans and are going to be put up for sale.
Three days of acting, I didn't expect to be watched by Manzoni members who pretended to be Aiwen's driver and gallery employees.
Indeed, in a three-story villa priced at US$300,000, six three-color figurines of maids from the Tang Dynasty or the Song Dynasty were found.
However, Hilde, who knows the cultural relics of the Celestial Dynasty best, is willing to give it a go.
Pulling Judd to the side, he muttered in Arabic that each of the two families paid half of the money to buy the villa directly.
In the eyes of Manzoni, it took only 6 or 7 minutes for Hilde to persuade Judd to buy the villa.
As for why Hilde is willing to take risks, the reason is very simple.
Before the people of the Celestial Dynasty became rich and their own people raised prices among themselves to drive up the prices of Chinese antiques, Tang Sancai would definitely rank among the top three porcelain antiques in the hearts of Europeans and Americans.
And the price has always been high from the 60s to the 90s.
Even in 1954, a 63 cm long Tang Sancai horse had an auction record of 420,000 US dollars.
As long as these six three-color figurines have the same shape, are well preserved and look like a complete set, as long as they are real, the price will definitely exceed the 300,000 price of this villa.
Because among the three colors, the most popular is the horse, the second is the camel, and the third is the maid figurine among the figurines.
As for bottles and cans, the selling price is the lowest.
