“And how can we verify the authenticity of his information?” “Exactly, we don’t even know what his message pertains to!”
“1 billion is no small sum!”
The crowd deliberated these points.
Several were ready to curse at Yamamoto.
But in the end, they all agreed.
The Emperor instructed his secretary, “Bring Mr. Yamamoto here, please!” Minutes later, the old man entered the conference room.
He greeted the familiar faces, regulars from the news, with a slight nod and a smile.
“Mr. Yamamoto, I agree with your proposal and will offer you ten billion!”
Yamamoto, unperturbed by both honor and disgrace, seemed to have anticipated their agreement. He responded, “Very well, Your Majesty. Once again, trust me, this information is indeed valuable. I am a patriot, my grandfather participated in many wars. Were it not so, I would not sell this information, perhaps I would wait for someone in greater need or for a higher price!”
The Emperor nodded, not bothering with further conversation.
He signaled his secretary, who produced a prepared contract.
The contract was simple.
Payment in exchange for a secret.
Yamamoto inspected the contract closely, fearful of any hidden clauses.
After reading it thoroughly, he said, “I have evidence to prove the veracity of my information. After I provide the proof, you must deposit every cent into my account!”
“Of course, as long as you can provide proof!” the Emperor responded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTen minutes later, Yamamoto signed the contract.
Then, he affixed his seal.
All eyes were on him, awaiting his story.
“This tale is long, if those present have time, I can tell it slowly!”
The Emperor gestured invitingly, “Please, do tell!”
What followed left everyone breathless.
When they discovered that there was more gold in the Changbai Mountains than the initial estimate of 200 tons, they all gasped.
It was 500 tons.
Unbelievable.
Luo Feng had already obtained over 200 tons.
That meant there was still over 300 tons remaining.
This news was worth far more than the one billion they had parted with.
No wonder Yamamoto had initially claimed his information was as valuable as Luo Feng’s gold discovery.
After all, if Luo Feng had found 200 tons of gold and Yamamoto’s information hinted at 300 more tons remaining, was he wrong?
“This is unbelievable, where’s the proof?” The Emperor, having somewhat regained his composure, asked.
“Of course, I have it!”
Yamamoto opened his mobile phone, flipped to a photo, and handed it over. “This is the receipt given to Petrov after we received all the gold!”
“The receipt was later stolen back by us. The officer wanted to burn it, but after he left, I retrieved it!”
The first one to look at the photo saw the clear evidence of fire damage and asked, “So where is this receipt now? If there’s a physical object, it’s certainly better than looking at a photo.”
“It’s in the safety deposit box at Mitsubishi Bank!” Yamamoto gave his account number and password.
He held nothing back.
After all, the contract was signed.
These were all things that the other party should obtain.
In the end, they were looking for treasure for money.
And now, it seemed Luo Feng had found 200 tons and wasn’t showing signs of stopping.
With so many people aware of the secret, many treasure seekers would likely target the Changbai Mountains in time.
Thus, their chances of finding the gold were not great.
It might be better to sell the information they knew.
After all, they were just after the money.
“So where is the remaining gold?”
About fifteen minutes later.
The Emperor had someone retrieve the receipt from the bank safety deposit box.
Upon seeing the words on the receipt,
The Emperor was convinced.
But there was no indication of where the gold was located.
“Huh.”
When Yamamoto heard this question, he wanted to say, ‘Are you an idiot?’ ‘If I knew where the gold was, would I care about your ten billion?’
‘I would have found it myself by now.’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“If I knew the location of the gold, I wouldn’t be selling the information to you,
Your Majesty!”
Seeing this, the Emperor chuckled, “Very well, thank you, Mr. Yamamoto. We will remember your contribution when we find the gold!” After seeing off the old man,
The meeting room lightened up, dispelling the gloom.
While it wasn’t all the gold, 300 tons was no small amount.
“Contact them, hire a helicopter to take them to the mountains. Also, invite some of the veterans who participated in building the Changbai Mountain military fortress in Huaxia to analyze where the most likely hidden military strongholds would be!”
Someone began to question, “Those retired veterans, their visas, they probably cannot be obtained!”
Such individuals going to Huaxia, wouldn’t that be a slap in the face to Huaxia? The very individuals involved in past transgressions, desiring to revisit the old place?
“Then let them transmit the map from there and have them analyze it in the Cherry Blossom country!” came the response.
Regardless, the Emperor was determined to seize the treasure.
Those 300 tons of gold, only the Cherry Blossom country was fit to possess it.
Others must step aside.
“What, we’re to continue looking for gold? Is this some kind of mistake?”
The team previously dispatched to the Changbai Mountains to search for gold were dumbfounded upon learning that they were still expected to continue the search.
But they had no choice; they could only obey the orders.
And when the helicopter arrived, it directly transported them into the depths of the mountains.
Of course, it was nearly the same area where Luo Feng was.
“Is this information real?”
“The report says, there’s still 300 tons of gold in the Changbai Mountains, yet to be discovered?”
“So, the 200 tons of gold Luo Feng has already found, is less than half of the total?”
“This is too crazy, isn’t it?”
“I think the Emperor would not jest about such a matter. Since he has given the order to continue the search, the information is definitely not unfounded!” ‘Given the circumstances, there’s a high probability it’s entirely true!”
