16, we could start the next phase of the plan
"Gu Cheng, that's far too kind of you!"
"That's right, Gu Cheng. If it hadn't been for you, whether we could have made it back alive would have been a question mark."
"You can't be blamed for this. Like you said, who could have predicted we'd run into something like that?"
Everyone felt a little embarrassed.
Gu Cheng had specifically warned them aboard the cruise ship.
He had told them to forget Sun En's tomb and never mention what they had encountered to outsiders.
Otherwise, it could very well bring them enormous trouble!
So now, when they mentioned Sun En's tomb,
they all referred vaguely to "something like that" to avoid inviting trouble.
"No, no, no. You were working for me this time. Of course I bear responsibility for what happened."
Gu Cheng said, "So I just had someone transfer your entire share from this trip into Jackie's account. Since it's a fairly large sum, Jackie, you might need to
wait a little longer before you receive the notification."
To his surprise, before he had even finished speaking, Jackie's phone rang.
Jackie took his phone aside and answered the call.
A moment later, he returned and looked at Gu Cheng in astonishment. "Young Master Gu, you transferred a billion to us?!"
Gu Cheng smiled and nodded. "That's right."
"As we agreed, the three Bronze Heads were €10,000 each, which comes to 450 million Dragon Yuan at the exchange rate. Add the ten tonnes of gold, and a ten-percent
share comes to about 400 million. Consider the rest compensation for the fright you had."
"Young Master Gu, this..."
Jackie Chan looked rather troubled.
He felt they had barely contributed anything this time. Taking a billion for nothing left him feeling uneasy.
