Chapter 1052: An Old Friend in Los Angeles
Los Angeles, in an office of Golden Eagle Discovery.
"Fake! Steven's bastard really went to Costa Rica, and the battle was not small, it seems that the news we found out earlier is true!
That bastard is ready to join forces with the Costa Rican government and Columbia University to explore the treasures of Lima buried on Cocos Island!"
Cook said through gritted teeth, his eyes flashing with jealousy and greed, and both eyes were green, the same color as the dollar!
That's the famous Lima Treasure! The second largest treasure in the world that exists is enough to make everyone crazy, and he is no exception!
If you find the treasure of Lima, it will surely cause a sensation all over the world, attract countless attention, and make everyone stunned and envious!
More importantly, there are some innumerable gold and silver treasures in Lima's treasures.
If centuries-old legends are true, then whoever finds the treasure of Lima will immediately become a super-rich, there is no doubt about it!
But unfortunately, it is not himself or his own Golden Eagle Discovery Company that owns the treasure map of Lima and is about to go on a treasure hunt in Cocos Island!
I'm just a spectator at the moment, and I can only watch as those damn New York bastards get closer and closer to the Lima treasure and grab that insanely large fortune!
"Boss, that private detective has fallen into the hands of the San Jose police, presumably the police who Steven reminded them, those New York bastards have always been very cautious, and it is basically impossible to follow them.
This piece is completely useless, what should we do next? Do you want to find someone again and keep following Steven's bastards? Or I'll take a few brothers to San Jose and keep an eye on those guys!"
One of Cook's men said, his eyes also flashing with greed.
"No! It's so hard to track down those New York bastards, and there aren't many people in San Jose who can do it, and even if you go to San Jose in person, it probably won't work.
We've fought those damn New York bastards more than once or twice, and we've suffered a lot of losses, and we know a lot about the strength of those bastards.
I don't want to admit it, but I have to say that those New York bastards are very tough, especially Steven's bastard, who seems to be able to do anything!"
Cook said through gritted teeth, his eyes full of hatred and his expression hideous.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of the tragic experience in Boston before, and the past was vivid, and it was unbearable to look back!
Ever since Steven's bastard arrived in Boston, he has been constrained everywhere, falling into the trap dug by that bastard again and again, and being pitted crying without tears!
Several times, I almost lost my life in Boston!
What's even more infuriating is that Steven's bastard actually used the FBI and the Boston police to set up a trap for himself, and almost let himself go to prison to eat jail!
If it weren't for the fact that he had money and paid a huge price, he might be living in a federal prison and even become the male favorite of other inmates!
As soon as he thought of this, Cook hated the roots of his teeth and his eyes spewed fire!
"You're right, boss, Steven and his gang of bastards are really tough!
Cook's subordinate nodded in reply, his eyes equally full of hatred.
He was also in Boston, and had been through everything, even nearly losing his life in the cemetery of the Old North Church.
After adjusting his mood a little, Cook continued:
"If that's right, Steven's bastards are going to San Jose this time to sign a joint exploration agreement and discuss the composition of the exploration team, the departure date, and so on.
Costa Rica is a sovereign and independent republic, and a matter as big as the exploration of Lima's treasures will inevitably hold a press conference to explain it to the outside world.
In a day or two at most, the matter of their tripartite joint exploration of the treasures of Lima will be made public and revealed to the world, which will definitely cause a sensation in the whole world!"
"That's true! If Steven's bastards were exploring alone, they might have kept it a secret until the end, but here is the Costa Rican government and Columbia University, so it must be made public!"
"There's no need to follow Steven's gang of bastards, and finding someone to keep an eye on the deep-sea salvage ship Intrepid anchored in New York Harbor may be a surprise for the unexpected.
Cocos Island is located in the depths of the Pacific Ocean, and if Steven's bastards go to Cocos Island in search of Lima's treasures, they must use deep-sea salvage ships in case they need it!"
"Okay, boss, I'll arrange for someone to go to New York right away!"
"Since we can't secretly follow Steven's gang of bastards, let's fly straight to Costa Rica, put everything on the table, and negotiate face-to-face with those bastards.
My goal is to join this expedition and turn it into a quadripartite joint exploration operation, and get a piece of the pie, even if it costs a certain amount!
If that bastard Steven refuses to join us, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being rude and using some off-the-plate tricks, who let that be the treasure of Lima!
Smith, gather a few brothers, and prepare to fly with me to Costa Rica to negotiate with Steven's gang of bastards, I don't believe it, I will lose to that bastard this time!"
As he spoke, Cook's eyes showed a hint of murderous intent, as well as unforgettable hatred, and uncontrollable greed!
As soon as the words fell, Smith immediately nodded in response:
"Okay, boss, I'll inform everyone and get everyone ready to go"
Then the guy turned around and left the office and went out to get busy.
In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.
A white Gulfstream G550 private jet roared from Los Angeles International Airport and flew south through the sky.
This is Cook's idiot's private jet, and the flight destination is none other than San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, located in Central America!
At the same time, Ye Tian and the others were sitting in a conference room of the Intercontinental Hotel, communicating and negotiating with the official representatives of Costa Rica and the delegation of Columbia University!
Tomorrow we will sign a tripartite joint exploration agreement, and then hold a press conference to officially announce the news.
Before that, some things must be communicated and coordinated in advance so as not to affect the signing of the joint exploration agreement.
Time was limited, so instead of going out to enjoy the sights of San Jose and experience the city's nightlife, they came to this meeting room after a hearty dinner and a short break.
"Mr. Flores, and several others, given the pristine rainforest environment on Cocos Island, we must control the size of the expedition team for the safety of the expedition team.
Columbia University's School of History's eight-member research team, led by Professor Douglas, is just the right size to move in the rainforest.
I hope that you will not have more than 12 people involved in the joint exploration, except for the two gentlemen from the Ministry of Police and Public Security, you can coordinate and arrange the rest of the personnel yourself! I will not interfere."
Ye Tian said with a smile, looking at the few Costa Ricans sitting opposite.
"There are only 12 people! Isn't it too few? We have a total of four departments to participate in this joint exploration, and there is no way to arrange personnel at all!"
Flores, Minister of Culture and Youth, shook his head and said, obviously disagreeing with Ye Tian's arrangement.
"There is an old Chinese saying that there are more soldiers than more soldiers! Exploring treasures in the rainforest will only get in the way and increase a lot of unnecessary risks, I don't want to see that!"
"Eight from Columbia University, twelve from Costa Rham, how many of you will be sending to participate in this joint exploration operation?
"There's nothing to say about this, except for the armed security personnel who protect the joint exploration team, there will be no more than eight personnel in our company participating in this exploration operation, including me!"
Ye Tian quickly gave an answer, his demeanor was very relaxed and full of confidence.
Hearing this, the Costa Ricans on the other side were immediately dumbfounded and fell silent.
Seeing their performance, a narrow smile immediately flashed in Ye Tian's eyes.
There are certainly no more than eight explorers from our company, but fully armed security personnel can be twenty, thirty, or more!
Dude can even hire an army for as long as he needs to!
In addition, the deep-sea salvage ship Intrepid is on the high seas near Cocos Island, and there are people on board to provide support at any time.
When the tripartite exploration operation begins, Cocos Island will become buddy territory, and it is entirely up to me to decide, even though it is your Costa Rican territory!
After a little thought, Flores spoke:
"Steven, we still need to discuss this matter, and we can't give you a definite answer for the time being!"
Ye Tian nodded, chuckled and said:
"I understand this, I just hope that it won't be delayed for too long, and it won't affect the signing of the joint exploration agreement tomorrow, okay, let's move on to the next topic......
While they were negotiating, the news of Ye Tian's appearance in San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, had spread rapidly!
A lot of people, a lot of news media reporters looked here, and everyone was very curious.
What is that bastard Stevens doing in Costa Rica? Did you find any more treasure?
