Chinese Captain: Gattuso's First Love

A few days had passed since then.

George's solution had been pretty good.

Too troublesome? Then don't do it!

He had not merely threatened Villas-Boas and Higuain. He had also promised to provide them with some assistance in Milan afterward. After all, even if his father found out, he would not say anything about this matter.

A slap followed by a sweet date—it was enough to make Villas-Boas and Higuain swallow their pride and accept it.

Taking a few Chinese artifacts had been a simple matter for them in the first place, and those items often could not be sold anyway. Handing them over to George was not that hard to accept.

The matter's satisfactory resolution left George very pleased as well.

The things the British had taken were no ordinary relics. As professional thieves, they had quite a good eye for such things.

This included, but was not limited to, Gu Kaizhi's Admonitions Scroll, Dunhuang murals, Han dynasty swords, even older bronze artifacts, all kinds of blue-and-white porcelain, and quite a few royal possessions.

The more George thought about it, the more he felt he needed to go a step further.

He could give Villas-Boas a few priority targets when the time came. At worst, he could offer him some extra money as a reward.

The money certainly would not match the value of national treasures, but it would not carry the risk of attracting MI6's attention through black-market sales either.

They had robbed the British Museum so many times already. If artifacts on the level of its signature exhibits started circulating, they would definitely cause plenty of trouble.

He still needed to make more money.

George felt he should take on a couple of advertisements in the United Kingdom, then use British money to buy back the artifacts
