[But I can tell you this, as long as the platform and the underlying code are set up, even without me, others can complete the subsequent iterations, although the success rate will be lower.]
[In fact, the success rate I predicted was 15%, but due to the condition of my body, it has dropped to 9%.]
In the two communications with Dark, Lin Mo could feel that Dark was as straightforward as the system had evaluated, a person who disdained hiding the truth and usually spoke his mind.
It was somewhat like most of the science-minded men Lin Mo had encountered before, only more extreme in personality.
[Okay, I understand.]
Lin Mo frowned slightly.
Two hundred million US dollars, 1.4 billion Renminbi, it’s not a small sum.
He wondered whether all those treasure boxes combined would be enough.
Even if they were, he’d need to figure out how to sell those treasure boxes first.
How to sell them…
Through contacting buyers on the deep web?
Or perhaps…
Suddenly!
Lin Mo had an idea.
He tentatively asked, “Mr. Kevin, to be frank, I don’t have that much cash on hand right now, would you accept other methods of payment? Like gold, jewelry, diamonds; I have a batch of decent stuff here.”
“Of course, if you only accept cash, that’s fine too, just give me a few days and I’ll arrange the cash.”
If he could trade the items in the boxes directly to Dark, that would be ideal, saving the trouble of finding buyers.
In his current situation, he really wasn’t in a position to trade openly.
If he sold them slowly, it would indeed take time to handle more than ten billion, not to mention it was troublesome. He couldn’t sell just within the country; he’d have to make a trip to another country to avoid being targeted!
[Do you have a lot of jewelry and gold on hand?]
Dark answered, [Yes, you can send me photos of those items, and I will have someone appraise them for you. As long as the value matches, I can assist with the sale.]
[Great, no problem, thank you for the trouble.]
[Goodbye.]
[Goodbye.]
After hanging up the video call on the deep web, Lin Mo returned to the storage where the treasure boxes were kept and said to Zhang Li, who was resting on the side, “Xing Jiang, come help me out.”
“Okay, I’m coming.”
When Zhang Li came over, Lin Mo pointed at the treasure boxes and said, “I need to take photos of the contents; they’re useful. I’ll do the shooting, and you help me hold them.”
“No need to take photos of the gold.”
As Lin Mo had anticipated, among these piled-up items, gold was the least valuable!
“Alright, I understand!”
Zhang Li didn’t ask why they needed photos and began taking items out of the boxes one by one for Lin Mo to photograph.
Lin Changshui and Li Jinshan saw what was happening and also came over to help.
“What’s going on?”
“What is this for?”
Lin Mo briefly explained, “I just contacted Tai, he has a secure channel and asked me to take some photos.”
“That’s really good!”
“I was just worrying about how to sell all these good items!”
Most of the items in the treasure boxes were gold, with only some diamonds, jewelry, and agates remaining.
The quantity wasn’t as much as the gold, but it still took over an hour to photograph everything.
It couldn’t be helped,
for some items, one angle wasn’t sufficient; sometimes it was necessary to shoot from several angles.
And the process of photography helped them sort through the day’s haul.
It must be said, good items are good items,
even though they weren’t too knowledgeable about jewelry, they could tell that these things definitely weren’t cheap!
Besides, most of the good stuff had been obscured by the useless gold, so they hadn’t been able to appreciate the beauty of top-tier jewels at first glance.
After finishing the shooting, Lin Mo didn’t send the photos right away but turned to the three men and said, “Each of you pick one item, to take back as a gift for your families.”
However, all three men were quite reserved, repeatedly declining.
“There’s no need for that, it’s better to sell everything, these items are too valuable.”
“Yeah, son, there’s no need to pick.”
Lin Mo ignored them and took the initiative to pick up a red bead, “It’s fine, take it. It has some commemorative value.”
“Xing Jiang, listen to me, you pick one first. Whether you keep it for yourself or gift it to my sister, pick one, otherwise Dad and they will feel too embarrassed to take anything.”
Lin Changshui also chimed in, “Right, Xiao Xing, you take one. You’ve been working hard these days.”
“Yes, Xiao Xing should take one, you’ve been busy.” Li Jinshan added with a smile.
Seeing that all three were being polite, Zhang Li felt it was difficult to refuse the generous offer.
And honestly, while sorting the items, he had indeed spotted something he especially liked.
“Alright, then I’ll take your advice.” Among the pile of treasures, Zhang Li picked up a not-so-large pink diamond: “Bro, I want this one. When Siyu gets better, I’m planning to give it to her as a present because Siyu once said she liked pink diamonds.”
“Sure, no problem. And you’re so cautious, not knowing to pick a bigger one! Also, what Siyu, she’s now called Li Meiru! Don’t make a mistake!” Lin Mo laughed and then turned to the two elders and said, “You two dads, don’t be modest, pick something for my two moms, make them happy when you return.”
“Now that you mention it, I haven’t bought anything for your mother in so long, must be ten years, right?” Li Jinshan was quite sentimental and then without saying much more, he symbolically picked up a Buddha pendant from the pile of worthless gold, saying, “This one is nice, the Buddha’s depiction is very vivid. Your mom believes in this, I’ll take this to make her happy.”
