Chapter 349: Chapter 270: Safety, a Problem

billion Euros!

Even Sean Knight, after hearing this, his heart jumped!

He had seen a lot in the treasure hunting world, but he couldn’t help being moved by the 2 billion Euro treasure!

Van Derick and Cheryl Suweton’s expressions also changed.

Seeing the expressions of the three people, Eric Barber felt more confident.

"So, let’s talk about the distribution of the treasure after we find it..."

Eric thought the situation was stable, so he entered normal mode.

First, set the basic tone, otherwise some things would be difficult to discuss later.

Sean Knight was distracted.

Kyiv Ross Duchy?

Why does this place sound familiar?

Kyiv?

Sean Knight had studied geography well in middle school, often scoring 100 points, and often played the game of report place names with the girl sitting next to him with a map.

Kyiv often appeared in the names reported.

And in recent news, this place name also appeared frequently.

The next second, Sean Knight blurted out:

"Kyiv! Isn’t that in Ukraine? There’s a war going on there!"

Van Derick and Cheryl Suweton, who were thinking about the 2 billion Euro treasure, suddenly reacted after hearing Sean Knight’s words!

That place is a war zone!

Van Derick and Cheryl Suweton’s gazes fell on Eric Barber, and they both carried clear hostility.

If he can’t explain it clearly, then they would just part ways.

Eric was shocked, thinking that Sean Knight was amazing!

He connected the Kyiv Ross Duchy and Kyiv so quickly!

He didn’t know that the vocabulary in China’s language is different from the Western Realm.

Some things have a heritage.

However, fortunately he had prepared in advance, so he explained with a smile:

"Don’t worry. I’ve investigated it. Although the army of the Golden Khanate were fighting the Kyiv Ross Duchy at the time, after they captured the king, they went to the Dnieper River, which is located in Belarus now. There is no war there, so you don’t have to worry."

Upon hearing his words, Sean Knight relaxed.

If they really went to Ukraine, he would definitely not go.

Too many people who went there in the past to pick up cheap deals ended up being drafted to the front lines, and going there would be like courting death.

"Are you sure?" Sean Knight asked again.

"Definitely. I can’t joke with my own life." Eric Barber solemnly guaranteed.

Van Derick’s smile faded, saying, "Eric, it’s better to make such things clear in the future. It’s easy to cause misunderstandings."

Eric hurriedly nodded his head.

Although he was also a top treasure hunter, the scale of this operation was a bit too large, and the situation was more complicated, so he really needed others’ assistance.

Otherwise, he would have gone alone.

Without help, he couldn’t handle it. So now he had to lower his posture.

Cheryl Suweton glanced at Sean Knight, her gratitude flashing by in an instant.

"Alright, everyone rest assured, safety is my top priority." Eric Barber didn’t want to dwell on this issue, so he changed the topic:

"Next, let’s talk about the distribution. Since I found the information, routes, and target location for this event, I want to take 60%..."

As he said this, he looked at the other three people.

The other three said nothing, waiting for him to continue.

"Each of you gets 10%, with half of the remaining 10% being used for early investment.

This includes the hiring of security personnel, the provision of supplies, en route replenishment, and the cost of renting transportation.

The other half is for contingency funds, to be used in case of emergencies.

Of course, I will cover the initial expenses. How about it?"

The three looked at each other.

Sean Knight thought it was fair.

After all, he hadn’t contributed anything, and he was found just because of his big name. Taking 10%, which according to Eric’s estimates, was also 200 million US Dollars, and it felt like he was getting it for free.

Isn’t that good?

This was different from the last treasure hunt with Hans Hunter. Hans was half an outsider, and he had searched several times without any results. This time Eric had made full preparations, and brought three experienced people.

So he thought it was okay.

Of course, the other two also understood this reasoning.

"No problem." Van Derick nodded, his face regaining its harmless smile.

Sean Knight and Cheryl Suweton also nodded their heads.

"Alright, let’s discuss the route of action next..."

Eric took out a map, marked with a thick line showing a route from Paris directly to a small city on the banks of the Dnieper River.

"This is the route I initially planned. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to bring them up."

Sean Knight was not familiar with the area and shook his head directly.

Van Derick and Cheryl Suweton had more experience and raised a few minor issues, which Eric answered one by one.

Sean Knight could tell. They planned to rent a plane and fly directly to Belarus. The plane would carry supplies and several off-road vehicles.

Once they arrived in Belarus, a team of hired mercenaries would be waiting for them. Then they would carry their supplies together and drive to the target location.

"The target area is about several hundred square kilometers, so be prepared for a long-term treasure hunt." Eric reminded, "At least a few months. I will guarantee the basic supplies, but as it will be very cold there during winter, you also need to prepare some supplies yourselves."

A few months?

Sean Knight was a bit stunned, but then understood.
