God-Tier Like System
Su Wang glanced at Christopher Yard beside him and remained silent. Shortly after, Su Wang left the Baoming Auction House, realizing that the celadon lotus flower vase was not suitable as a birthday gift for his grandfather. The islander next to him, unable to do anything to Wei Ken, looked at Christopher Yard and Wei Ken with an ugly expression. Just as Christopher Yard and Wei Ken were about to leave, a faint voice suddenly came from behind: "Brother Ye, please wait. I am Shuiko Ogawa, the father of Xiao Chuan and Mu. I want to ask you to save my son, Chris. Can you do it?" Christopher Yard was stunned upon hearing this voice. He then looked at Wei Ken next to him and sneered, "Mr. Shuiko, I remember you were just trying to drive me away, weren't you?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Chuan and Mu, who were already filled with anger, became even more furious. Based on the reports from their subordinates, Xiao Chuan and Mu knew very well that Christopher Yard was likely the one responsible for Chris falling into a coma. They had heard about the acupuncture techniques of traditional medical practitioners before. It was said that they could cause instant fainting and hallucinations. They used to scoff at it, but now it seemed that they had to believe it. After inquiring with the manager of the Baoming Auction House, the manager provided Christopher Yard's information. Xiao Chuan and Mu were shocked to learn that he had saved several patients who were on the verge of death. He even cured asthma, which was considered incurable, and extended the lifespan of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. This method could be considered a miracle in the history of medicine. After all, even the most skilled doctors couldn't achieve such results. Although Xiao Chuan and Mu didn't know how the manager of the Baoming Auction House obtained Christopher Yard's information so quickly, they could almost confirm that Chris was the one who manipulated Christopher Yard. Xiao Chuan and Mu were both well-known art auction houses in their country. They were major shareholders of this auction house, holding 40.52% of the shares, giving them almost absolute control. They came here with a great purpose. Several decades ago, when the island nation invaded Madrila, they unearthed a tomb that contained a large number of precious artifacts, including their grandfather. Due to limited time back then, the only artifact that could be excavated was this celadon lotus vase. If they had more time, they could have obtained even more treasures. Because of this, Kawaguchi Hideko's current auction house was opened by their grandfather. Over the years, their grandfather had always been obsessed with the tomb in Madrila and even wanted to send people to secretly excavate it. Now, the timing is just right. As Kawaguchi and Ki were discussing in extreme fear, they are conducting the auction in order to attract attention while secretly searching for the location of the tomb. It has to be said that this is indeed a great plan. Based on the vague map drawn by their grandfather, Kawaguchi Hideko has already narrowed down the location of the tomb to a certain range. By conducting professional surveys and using technological means, they will eventually discover the entrance to the tomb. At that time, all the artifacts will belong to them. The entrance to this tomb had already been dug open by tomb raiders in the past. Now, as long as they find the entrance, they will be able to steal the artifacts inside within a short period of time and then secretly move them away. Unfortunately, at this moment, Chris had an accident."Mr. Kawaguchi, that was my son being reckless. As long as you are willing to save him, I am willing to agree to any conditions you propose." Kawaguchi Hideko's face looked very unpleasant. Among their entourage, they naturally brought along highly skilled doctors who were considered outstanding in both the island nation and Madrila. Unexpectedly, when they examined Chris, they found that he had already been scared to the point of urinary incontinence, heart disease, and even other illnesses. However, after taking medicine and using professional instruments, they found that it was all useless. Chris never woke up. The doctors were also sweating profusely afterwards. They used the instruments to diagnose again, but still found no signs of life. It was only when a subordinate reported Christopher Yard's situation that he hurriedly rushed over. If he had known that Madrila had such skilled doctors, he would never have brought Chris out. Upon hearing Kawaguchi Hideko's words, a smirk appeared on Christopher Yard's face as he looked at him and said, "Are you sure?" As if knowing what Christopher Yard wanted, Yuko Ogawa's eyes flickered for a moment, then she looked at Christopher Yard beside her and nodded firmly. "Well then, Mr. Ogawa, I won't beat around the bush either. One of the conditions for my intervention is that blue-glazed lotus vase, as well as the location of the tomb you discovered." Christopher Yard sneered. Since it was something everyone knew, there was no need to beat around the bush. Ogawa and Ki had already mentioned that they came here to excavate more artifacts, which naturally meant digging up tombs. When Yuko Ogawa heard the first condition, her face remained calm, as if the blue-glazed lotus vase was not valuable at all. But when she heard the second condition, her expression suddenly changed. "Heh, Mr. Ogawa, for the sake of my life, I can give you the blue-glazed lotus vase. But as for that tomb, it's all made up by me, Chris. How could we possibly do such a thing in Madrila?" Yuko Ogawa's eyes flickered again, then her face returned to calmness as she said lightly. Christopher Yard's eyes turned cold when he heard Yuko Ogawa's words. These islanders really didn't give up easily, but this was also within his expectations. If the islanders gave away the location so easily, he himself would find it hard to believe.Of course, once Yuko and Ki spread this information, it was unlikely that they would have a chance at Brentwood City's tomb. Not only the government, but even tomb raiders would be mobilized. It was wishful thinking for the Ogawa family to get a share of the spoils. Christopher Yard snorted coldly and said, "Well then, let's sign the agreement first. Otherwise, what if I cure your son and you go back on your word?" Yuko Ogawa's eyes narrowed slightly, and there seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction on her face. But her eyebrows showed a hint of delight, and she directly extended her right hand, saying, "Of course, Mr. Yard, we must sign this agreement."
