Chapter 115: The Great Indian Adventure (Negotiations)

“WELL! If you don't mind verifying it, then I think we'll need to renegotiate a new price that we'll be happy with both parties! A price that will really satisfy both you and me! Dmitry Mavrommatis opened the skylight and spoke brightly.

"Of course I don't mind, but I think you'll need to get this young lady's consent, the whole documentary is still in the production stage, and you two may have to sign a non-disclosure agreement or something! I don't know much about Brabra, Lucy ......"

"It's not that much trouble! After all, it's not an official movie, and there's no need for such an exaggerated thing as a non-disclosure agreement. But if you want to watch the film, we need to find the 35mm film projector from the big pile of luggage! ”

Forehead! This is a bit unexpected. Fortunately, the 35mm film projector was very conspicuous, and Wu Liang had a lot of people on his side, so a small film screening was ready in the box in less than ten minutes. Since all the film was still unedited, no one knew exactly when the statue would appear, so Wu Liang could only take Dmitry Mavrommatis to look at it from the beginning.

“Shit! God bless! This is what you also encountered at the Padmanaba Swamy Temple? How did you survive? The tape was mixed with a video of the corpse of a giant snake, and Dmitry Mavrommatis and Erry Black couldn't believe their eyes.

"Well! How did you survive? Of course, I shot all the rockets in one go, and then I killed them with a rifle! Wu Liang didn't want to get too involved in this topic.

"Oh! It's so big, I can't believe there is such a monster in nature, how long is it? ”

"Length? At more than 18 meters, it should be the longest snake in the world! ”

Dmitry Mavrommatis grabbed Wu Liang's arms excitedly: "Why didn't you bring it out?" Compared to its value, this 16th-century statue is a clay toy, is it still in place? Can you find it? ”

"Take it out? You must be kidding, you also saw that there are only four of us, such a big monster weighing seven or eight hundred kilograms at a length of eighteen meters, how do you tell us to take it out of the rainforest? You know, there's more to that forest than a python, and we're going to die with it! ”

“OK! Mr. Wu, I'm sorry I was a little too excited just now, and asked a stupid question, let's forget about it! Now that I'm sure you and your friends did go deep into the rainforest, I just want to ask one question---- if you could ever find the body if you went back now?" Dmitry Mavrommatis asked very seriously, word by word.

"I can't guarantee it! The last night we spent in that hellish place, the night after the serpent was destroyed, everyone was almost scared out of the heart attack, and all kinds of gigantic predators were very purposeful in the direction of the great snake's corpse, and God knows how much more snake would have left after being patronized by so many diners, maybe not even bones! It was also a very unexpected fact that we were able to preserve this image. ”

With no desire to watch it on, Dmitry Mavrommatis paced back and forth in the small room on his own, ignoring the reaction of his colleague Eri Black. "Mr. Wu, are you interested in serving as our guide to take us back? I'm willing to pay a high salary of $200,000! ”

“SORRY! Mr. Dmitry Mavrommatis, I admit that $200,000 is a very large amount, but I must tell you the truth, I am the first time I have come to India, and the first time I have been in the rainforest in my life, and I am really not qualified to be a guide, and it will kill us all in it! However, I have a good candidate to recommend to you!"

"Oh! Thank you so much! I guarantee that this sculpture will give you the highest price, and of course it is within my authority! ”

“GREAT! However, before recommending candidates, I would like to remind you that it is best to bring more people with you before you go, and you must bring as many heavy weapons as possible! If it weren't for those rockets, I don't think I would have had a chance to sit here and bargain with you. ”

"No problem, people who listen to persuasion live longer, don't they? I would convince my superiors to send a whole squad of mercenaries heavily armed. ”

"Lucy, can you help me get Teddy in!"

"Coming soon!"

Teddy, who was excited to leave India tomorrow and start a new life, soon followed Lucy to the house. "Boss, you called me?"

"Teddy! I know you're under a lot of financial pressure, and you have a $200,000 short-term job right now, I wonder if you'd like to try it? ”

"Wow! Two hundred thousand dollars? Such a large amount? Boss, I can't do too complicated work! ”

Dmitry Mavrommatis pointed to the picture of the corpse of a giant python on the wall and said: "Gentleman, you don't have to worry at all, the job is very simple, you just need to take us to this place!" ”

"Are you going to go to that cursed place?" Teddy's face was full of surprise.

"Don't worry, we'll bring a lot of people, you just need to make sure we find that place."

"But I can't guarantee that this big guy is still in place!"

"We don't force the integrity of the corpse, even a few bones or even a few teeth are a big gain!"

Teddy sat on the couch next to him, holding his head in his hands and thinking carefully for a while before gritting his teeth and accepting this super-paying job: "Demi... Sir, I'm still worried, but I need that job, and with this money, my family and I don't have to worry about life anymore! ”

"A very wise decision, but, Teddy, make good use of the two safe houses we have prepared, and remember to protect yourself!" Wu Liang took out a few grenades and handed them over: "Pay attention to keeping a distance when using it, more than five meters, five seconds delay!" ”

"Mr. Dmitry Mavrommatis, congratulations on finding a very reliable jungle guide, isn't it time to reprice this thing?" Patting the statue in his hand, Wu Liang reminded.

"Oh! Of course, I'm capped at $350,000 for 16th-century antiquities, and I think that's more than enough to repay you for the news! ”

The blonde bartender protested, "Hey! Man, you actually bid 35,000 for something worth 350,000 in the first place? It's too dark, isn't it? ”

"You have to understand, I can live with these saved funds, who doesn't want to make more!"

Wu Liang didn't care much about this little money: "Three hundred and fifty thousand, it's not too little!" No problem! Cash or transfer? ”

"Of course it's a transfer, who would run around with so much cash in a situation of chaos?"
