Chapter 1198 1198. Stealing a Chicken Fails (25)
Director Saatchi didn't have the guts to turn on the surveillance. He didn't expect this to happen.
He called the police to investigate Li Du, just out of intuition and reasoning.
Last night, I saw Li Du poking his head at the entrance of the museum. The partition of the house broke inexplicably, the tables and chairs on it fell off, and the treasure hunters I arranged found nothing...
In this way, Saqi couldn't help thinking that maybe Li Du, like himself, also knew the location of this great book!
If everything is a coincidence, then it's too coincidental. Li Du happened to visit the museum? Just when the fault in the museum building shattered at night? It happened that Li Du took another photo of the room where the table and chairs on the second floor fell?
He is engaged in scientific research, and he does not believe in such a coincidence.
In his opinion, it is more likely that Li Du knew the existence of this book, sneaked into the museum to find it last night, smashed the partitions of the building, and planned this incident.
Sage hoped that the police would find clues and confiscate the book first. As long as Li Du did not take the book away, Sage could get it. Of course, he had to use the name of the museum to get the book back at this time.
But even so, he still has something to earn, which is better than not getting a penny if the book is taken away, right?
The result made him depressed, the compartment was really broken due to natural aging, but he entered this room last night, why didn't the compartment break? This unscientific!
He doesn't have the time to think about it now. If the police want to adjust the monitoring, it will be a bit troublesome.
There are surveillance cameras all over the museum, they entered last night and must have been caught.
He had called the police before and forgot about the incident, and only wanted to arrest Li Du before he left with the book.
Usually, he is fine when he enters and leaves the museum, but now the museum has been consigned for auction. According to the law, no one is allowed to enter except on the day of the auction.
Saatchi is well-known locally in Philadelphia and has a lot of contacts, so as soon as he calls the police, the police will come over, it was the same last night, and it is the same today.
But the police station is not run by his family, and the police will not always follow his orders.
This matter has been filed, and they have to explain something, so they have to check the surveillance video.
When the video was called out, the expressions of the policemen became serious, but Saatchi's expression became ugly.
What was even uglier was the treasure picker with the big back. After he heard the news, he hurriedly led his men to leave.
The police noticed him and said, "Hello, sir, please don't leave here."
The big back cast his eyes on Sage for help, but Sage pretended not to see it, and was annoyed with a gloomy face.
Li Du came over and said to Da Beitou: "Hey, buddy, you know the rules of our Warehouse Auction Association, right? If you break the rules, you may be sanctioned, and you may not be able to be a treasure picker in the future."
This is what Dabeitou is most afraid of. He is different from Saqi. The two of them entered the museum last night, which violated the law. If they were just ordinary people, the punishment would not be heavy, but they would be subject to investigation and a fine.
But he is still a treasure picker. For the healthy development of the industry, the Warehouse Auction Association strictly prohibits treasure pickers from entering the warehouse during the freeze period. Once found, the treasure picker's files will be frozen.
The warehousing auction industry is different from many other industries. It is a relatively closed industry. The auction association has a lot of authority, and of course it mainly plays a regulatory role.
Therefore, the punishment of the association is a very serious matter for treasure hunters.
The big back was anxious, pointed at Saqi and said: "It's none of my business, he took me into the museum, I didn't know there was going to be an auction here, he just told me that there was a room I had to take pictures of, At that time, I will be paid an extra two thousand yuan..."
Being accused by him, Sach also became anxious: "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't say that, I brought you in, damn it, shut up, I brought you in to visit the museum!"
Li Du watched this scene with great interest. The case had nothing to do with him. The police had judged that the partition was broken due to aging, rather than being broken after being invaded.
In addition, the surveillance camera showed that this incident had nothing to do with him. He only wandered the street for a while and never entered the museum.
Instead, it was discovered from the surveillance that Saqi, Dabeitou and others had entered the banned museum. This was illegal. The police made a decisive decision and took them into the police car.
This result made Li Du quite satisfied, and he immediately ordered, "Notarize this book to prove that we obtained it legally from the storage auction, and then we will go back immediately."
He and Brother Wolf took this "Birds of the Americas" out of the museum first to prevent any further troubles. In his opinion, Sage, a greedy old guy, definitely did illegal operations on this book.
Godzilla took people to stay to deal with the garbage that was photographed, as long as it was sent to the garbage disposal station.
Afterwards, Li Du turned on his mobile phone, and Hans kept calling him.
He stayed in Los Angeles before, and after an emergency flight from Los Angeles to Philadelphia, he only found Godzilla, but failed to find the book and Li Du, so he had to continue flying from Philadelphia to Phoenix.
This time Hans was tortured badly, and he swore that he would never mess around in the red light district again, so Li Du let him go.
Li Du felt that it was not too much for him to do this. He didn't want to engage in the warehouse auction business. He wanted to go to Los Angeles to buy a luxury house and develop his jewelry business.
It was Hans who asked them to continue working in the warehouse auction industry in order to join the million club or even the ten million club. As a result, Li Du listened to him and flew all over the United States to find valuable warehouses, even at the expense of marrying Su Fei parted.
As a result, the bastard Hans went to find the girl to drink and enjoy himself, and he naturally felt that it was unfair in his heart.
When Hans came back to deal with the book, Li Du patted the cover of the huge book and said: "The year before last, this book was worth 11.5 million US dollars, and the quality was not good, so you must sell me at least 15 million US dollars!"
"No problem!" Hans promised, "I'll contact the customer right away!"
Less than an hour after he made his promise, someone came to his door, claiming to be a member of the Audubon Society, and asked to see Li Du to see the "Birds of America" they had got.
Li Du was very surprised, and said to Hans: "You are really efficient, is this association in Phoenix?"
Hans sneered and said, "Uh, I didn't contact you..."
No matter who contacted, they came to buy things anyway.
Li Du arranged to receive them in the study, and "Birds of America" was placed on the desk, occupying almost half the size of the desk.
There were five people who came this time. The leader was a bald white man wearing glasses. He was about forty years old. His name was Bravo Thompsey, and he was the president of the Audubon Society.
The other four people are also from the Audubon Society, and their identities are not low. Some are activity directors, and some are financial directors.
