Chapter 147: Chapter 146: Seller’s Market
Pasamadi had touched it for a full two minutes before reluctantly letting go, and then motioned for Kiriayat to handle it, but Sean Knight immediately stopped him:
"Did you see it? Is it what you’re looking for?"
Kiriayat was somewhat resentful, but it was Sean’s object, and he had no choice.
He said a few words to Pasamadi, and then nodded to Sean Knight:
"Yes."
"Alright, let’s talk about the price." Sean said.
"We indeed offered too low a price before." Kiriayat said sincerely, "So we plan to offer two hundred million dollars - this is a very sincere price!"
"Please." Sean pointed to the door, "I’ve said before that you had one chance to bid, and you wasted it. Goodbye!"
Kiriayat was somewhat anxious, and he hurriedly said to Sean:
"There’s room for negotiation, please do not rush... "
Then he said something in a language Sean couldn’t understand to Pasamadi.
Pasamadi glared at Sean and said a string of words, followed by a few not-quite-standard English sentences:
"This price is already very fair! Three hundred million... "
Sean glanced at Kiriayat and laughed.
It turned out that the translator was still taking a cut for himself!
Kiriayat’s face turned red.
"Three hundred million won’t work either. Too low." Sean still said that, "You guys should go. I believe other Indian chiefs would be willing to take a look at this totem pole!"
Sean didn’t indulge them anymore and directly drove them away.
They really had no sincerity.
After they left, Sean touched the totem pole, enjoying the cool sensation. It was quite comfortable.
However, it disappeared after a while.
Could it be that such an aura slowly gathered?
But for the time being, Sean didn’t find any use for this aura.
After putting away the totem pole, Sean left the container.
"Lock this place." Sean said to Jason Caldwell, "Find a few people to watch it, and don’t let others approach."
Jason Caldwell readily agreed.
"The next auction starts tomorrow, Bosuns, do you want to come and take a look?" Jason asked.
"No, thanks. I have more important things to do." Sean thought for a moment, shook his head, and then drove away.
Returning to the villa, Sean received another phone call from Kiriayat that night.
"My father said, five hundred million dollars, we’ll offer something worth five hundred million dollars in exchange for the totem pole."
"Not enough." Sean was very firm, "Far from enough!"
"But our Tumiya Tribe doesn’t have much more assets... "
Kiriayat said with some difficulty.
Sean still held the same tone:
"Then go find it, go borrow. In consideration of your relationship with my uncle, I’ll give you two days. In two days, I’ll contact others.
There are collectors in New York who are interested in this totem pole. I think they’ll be very generous in paying for it!"
At Sean’s words, Kiriayat panicked:
"Please reserve it for two days. I’ll discuss it with my father now!"
Kiriayat hung up the phone, and his father Pasamadi was by his side, listening to the whole conversation.
Kiriayat relayed Sean’s words, and Pasamadi’s expression turned ugly.
Although there were not many people left in the Tumiya Tribe, they still had some money.
They were the first group to partner with Europeans that swarmed into America and the first Indian tribe to join the US army.
Although some people were killed, they still retained their vitality.
Moreover, as guides, they helped the US army plunder the wealth accumulated by several Indian tribes over thousands of years.
However, they had never seen the legendary totem pole before.
Pasamadi didn’t think he would see the legendary totem pole, which was said to symbolize the common god worshiped by all Northern Indian tribes.
It possessed magical powers!
Having touched it personally, Pasamadi indeed felt its magical power!
The Totem Pillar must be in our hands!
"You go and tally up some of our assets here, those villas, farmhouses, companies, figure out how much money they’re worth."
Although Pasamadi is old, he still hopes to be young.
Mainstream American society looks down on Native Americans, but Pasamadi comes from that era and has heard magical stories about his ancestors since he was a child.
They are the true masters of this mainland region!
America has no history, but the Native Americans do!
Although the stories are passed down from mouth to mouth, they are still history!
The legendary Totem Pillar is right in front of him, and he has already sensed one-ten-thousandth of the magic it holds —how could he let it out of his sight?
It must be taken!
Kiriayat Taylor is somewhat reluctant.
The land the Americans left for the Native Americans is in the west, far from the prosperity of New York, and he can’t bear to let it go.
His father was tallying up assets with only one possibility: to exchange these assets for the Totem Pillar.
He hadn’t touched it yet and didn’t know what the use of the Totem Pillar might be.
He was not willing to give up his luxurious life for that cold object.
"Go! Otherwise, I’ll take away your management rights! You know, you are not my only son!" Pasamadi saw through Kiriayat’s thoughts.
Kiriayat unwillingly went to count.
"The properties in New York State and nearby cities, including seven villas, eleven farmhouses, one commercial building, and a total value of around 700 million dollars. We brought a 50 million dollar check here today..."
Kiriayat reported in a low voice.
Pasamadi thought for a moment and said,
"Give it all to him!"
"Without leaving anything behind?"
"Nothing! With the Totem Pillar in our hands, we will quickly have even more assets! other Native American tribes will offer us their wealth!"
Pasamadi finally revealed his plans.
Kiriayat instantly became excited.
If that’s the case, then just give it!
The second day, Kiriayat came to negotiate with Sean Knight.
In the living room of Sean’s villa, Sean looked at the assets guarded by Kiriayat’s two bodyguards with great surprise.
Not knowing much about these things, he asked Kathy Lewis for help.
"Seven villas, eleven farmhouses, one commercial building, and a fifty million dollar check..."
Kathy was also a bit taken aback.
The Totem Pillar is worth so much money!
"The total value of these exceeds eight hundred million dollars." After looking at them, Kathy said in Mandarin to Sean, "There is an authoritative valuation from institutions, no problems."
"Well, let’s... exchange." Sean thought for a moment. Eight hundred million, almost there.
His bottom line was originally a billion, but it seemed difficult to achieve.
To be able to negotiate up to eight hundred million was already quite good.
He also didn’t want to keep this thing in his hands any longer.
Sean went to the freight yard with his people, including Kathy.
When they opened the container, Kiriayat wanted to go in to inspect it, but Sean refused.
He went in first, and after a while, he called Kathy in.
"They are desperate for this Totem Pillar, which may be related to its unique feel... I’m just guessing. You have a touch."
Kathy was a bit puzzled.
However, she had witnessed incredible events when she was with Jeremy Knight, so she didn’t refuse and touched the Totem Pillar, feeling its pleasant sensation.
Then Sean directly "drained" that sensation and let Kiriayat and the others in afterward.
One party handed over the Totem Pillar, the other handed over the documents and procedures.
There was still a process of handling the procedures, and Kiriayat promised that he would cooperate fully.
He also sensed a faint breath of that magic.
Could it be that his father was looking for this?
