Chapter 451

After putting down the wine glass, Lawrence opened two boxes, took out a black velvet bag from his inner pocket and handed it to William,

"Mr. Devonshire, this is the desert Star Sapphire and mouse, rabbit bronze head you asked for. Now they are all yours.".

Took the velvet bag, opened the bag, took out the desert star inside, looked at it and said with a smile, "have you cleaned up the head and tail?"

"Of course, sir, count Russell's way of obtaining these three things is secret, and he certainly dare not disclose the information of these three things to the outside world"

then Lawrence asked cautiously, "if you need, I can help you to clear the ownership of these three treasures, and guarantee that even if you take them out for auction tomorrow, there will be no problem.".

Thank you. I can handle it myself.

William has long had the abdomen case, how to deal with these three treasures with ownership disputes, and he will not leave the handle to Lawrence as a fat man.

I left Lawrence for lunch and talked about other animal heads.

During the conversation, Lawrence told William that he had found out who had the horse, the dog and the pig. Now he was talking about the price with the owner of the treasure. There were only snakes, chickens and sheep. There was no news in the antique circle.

William sat in his chair and thought silently that the chicken head should be in the castle of Siche in France, while the snake and the sheep were on a stranded ship,

so after thinking about it, William said directly to Lawrence, "before you still owe me 9 million pounds, today you sent rats and rabbits, then you still owe me 7 million pounds, right?"

"Yes, sir," Lawrence nodded.

"Give me the horse, the dog and the pig, and we'll get rid of the debt. No problem.".

"Of course, of course," Lawrence almost exclaimed excitedly. 700 pounds for a horse, a dog and a pig can not only make a fortune, but also immediately complete the agreement with William.

Lawrence, who had seen William's methods, immediately said, "I'll talk to the treasure owner this afternoon and promise to deliver these three treasures to you tomorrow. I'm sorry, Mr. Devonshire. I have to leave first. I'll see you tomorrow.".

"Ha ha, I like your attitude, Lawrence. Maybe we will have a lot of cooperation in the future." William stood up and shook hands with Lawrence. "I'll wait for your good news.".

"No problem. See you tomorrow, sir.".

"Well, see you tomorrow.".

Seeing Lawrence off, William said to Sunday, "help me find out if count Russell of France has a niece with the same title as count.".

Yes, sir.

A few minutes later, the Sunday meeting reported, "Sir, count Russell does have a niece, named Gabriel Russell, but their relationship is not very good"

"what's the relationship between them and me?" William narrowed his eyes and said, "is the ownership of the castle and all the items in the castle of the Gabriel family in the hands of the bank?".

"Yes, sir, the ownership is in the hands of the Bank of France, the price is about 160 million US dollars, and the Chateau Siche is part of the north corner of the Chateau Chantilly complex.".

"Chateau Chantilly? Can you ask me if the whole Chateau Chantilly is for sale? "

"Sorry sir, I don't think anyone dares to sell Chateau Chantilly. You'd better die. The reason why Chateau szech can be sold is that the Chateau is owned by Ms. Gabriel's family and separated from Chateau Chantilly by the adjacent lake.".

"Ask, let people ask and no loss," William said, "as long as they are willing to sell the price to discuss, and then tell the Bank of England and my personal lawyer Anthony, I will become the owner of the castle today.".

"Well, sir, although I think you're wasting your energy.".

After a nap, William got up, went to the parking lot and drove to France. Two and a half hours later, in the Chantilly area north of Paris, outside the Chateau Sich, William got out of the car. Anthony, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately came forward to help William open the door.

Good afternoon, boss. The contract is ready. You just need to sign this document. This 230 year old Siche castle is yours.

He took the document in Anthony's hand, put on his special glasses and scanned it. He soon told William that the document was OK on Sunday and signed his name on the document with the gold pen that Anthony handed over.

"Congratulations, boss. I'll contact Miss Abigail about the collection reception in the castle. Will it be sent back to England or stay here after identification?"

Anthony said that, a burst of French language quarrel sound came, William turned to see a beautiful woman in dozens of meters away from him and a few men in suits quarreling loudly.

"Transport it back," he said to Anthony. William looked at the man who had been standing a few meters away and looked like he was in his 50s.

"Hello, Mr. Devonshire, I'm Pierre, the general manager of the Bank of France. I'm glad you can invest in France." Pierre and William shook hands, then said with embarrassment,

"I'm sorry, sir, that Miss Caroline Russell is the daughter of the former owner of this castle. I didn't expect that she would make trouble at this time, but don't worry,It's no use for her to make trouble again. The complete ownership of this castle was already in our bank's hands in June this year. There is no doubt about this. From the moment you signed the document, this castle covers an area of 1200 hectares, eh

Pierre pauses for a few seconds for fear that William is an Englishman and is not used to calculating by hectare. "You are the owner of the 2966 acre castle.".

William nodded. "I don't doubt that, but, Mr. Pierre, is this castle still occupied? I don't want to buy it and deal with historical issues with my former owner.

"No, don't worry, we have arranged the family of the former owner of the castle in a villa in Paris," Pierre pointed to an ambulance leaving the driveway. "That ambulance is here to meet Gabriel's grandmother.".

"That's good," said William, squinting at Pierre. "Can you tell me if your bank owns the whole Chateau Chantilly?".

"This, this," Pierre looked at William in surprise. Before, he thought Anthony was joking with the Bank of England. He didn't believe that anyone would want to buy Chantilly castle.

"Don't doubt, I really have a plan to buy it all. Now the problem is the ownership of Chateau Chantilly." William looked at Pierre with a smile. "If it's in your bank's hands, do you have a plan to sell it?"

"Mr. Devonshire, are you sure you're not joking? This is a building complex comparable to the Louvre. This joke is not funny at all, and even if we want to sell it, all the people in France will not agree to it." Pierre wiped his forehead nervously.

"So the ownership is really in the hands of your banks, not the French authorities?"

Pierre nodded blankly.
