Chapter 23 The Glory of Picking Up Leaks

The other party's lawyer Jin obviously knew Robert Terry's status and style of conduct in the industry. Therefore, after consulting with his client, the butler John, for a long time, the lawyer Jin apologized to Yang Jing on behalf of his client under the reluctant gaze of the butler John, and then the lawyer Jin hurried out of the police station.

"Let's go, there's nothing we have to do here." Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang waited in the police station for a while, entered the sheriff's office and negotiated with Holmes for a while, Terry walked out of the sheriff's office and greeted Yang Jing easily.

After leaving the police station, Yang Jing said, "Mr. Terry, thank you very much this time."

Terry waved his hand with a smile and said, "This is what I should do, and you are also a student of Professor Johnson, so I should come forward to solve this problem for you."

The fat man asked curiously: "Mr. Terry, is this resolved? The people of the Vardy family no longer hold us accountable?"

"What are your responsibilities?" Terry asked back, "This matter has nothing to do with you. Obviously, the three paintings in Mr. Yang's hand made the people of the Valdi family jealous. Yes, those three paintings should indeed belong to the same group of works as the paintings collected by the Valdi family. Unfortunately, no one can prove that these three paintings were brought out from the Valdi Castle, so they can only doubt and cannot hold you responsible."

After a pause, Terry continued to explain: "This kind of thing that has no evidence and only relies on suspicion is untenable. Moreover, the other party has no confidence to be tough on us. Therefore, in the confrontation just now, the other party admitted defeat and took the initiative to revoke the accusation against you."

"In other words, we just settled it privately?" Yang Jing asked.

Terry smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, in your Chinese words, this is a kind of private settlement. The other party has no evidence to accuse you, and we don't want to make things worse. Therefore, after they saw that they had no chance to return these three paintings, they decisively admitted defeat. In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, we did not sue them for slander and slander. Private settlement is actually the best result of this matter."

As he said that, Terry opened his car door, then raised his hand to look at his watch, and then said to Guo Xiaoxiang with a smile: "Chris, my time this time is two hours and twenty minutes. I won't give you the time to go back. The fee is 1,500 pounds. Please call me to my account again. Well, we met this time. If there is a place to need me in the future, even if I call me, I will still serve you at this price. Who told you to be a student of Professor Wilson?"

The fat man nodded with a smile and said, "Mr. Terry, don't worry, I'll send you the money after I go back. Thank you very much this time."

Terry pulled up the car door, fastened his seat belt, then waved his hand, and disappeared in a flash in the car.

Yang Jing looked at the gradually disappearing car and shook his head helplessly.

The fat man smiled and said, "What's wrong? I'll be embarrassed if I'm invited to the police station for coffee?"

Yang Jing was stunned for a moment, looked at the fat man and said, "I just felt a little emotional. After all, those three paintings are indeed..."

"Shh! My ancestor, don't say you want to return those three paintings!"

Yang Jing gave the fat man a blank look and said, "How is it possible? Even if I was kicked by a donkey in my head, I would not return the three paintings. That was my buddy who picked up the bargain, why should I return it? The people of their Vardy family themselves don't have any eyes, so I can't blame me for picking up the three paintings from them. In our country, this is called picking up bargain? What many people dream of!"

Hearing Yang Jing say this, the fat man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought you didn't want those three paintings anymore?"

Yang Jing smiled slightly and said, "Let's go, I guess if we sell paintings again this time, no one will dare to say anything."

In fact, not only in the UK, but also in other developed countries, the requirements for antiques and cultural relics are relatively strict.

Take the three paintings Yang Jing bought this time as an example. As long as the Valdi family can prove that these three paintings were indeed brought out by Yang Jing and the others from Valdi Castle, they can ask Yang Jing to return these three paintings in an "improper way". If Yang Jing does not agree, the Valdi family will definitely sue Yang Jing.

After all, when Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang were cleaning up the garbage in the Valdi family, they signed relevant agreements with the Valdi family. Not to mention those three paintings, even if they were slightly more valuable, if the butler John did not allow them, they would not be able to bring the things out of the castle without authorization.

These three paintings are of high value and are originally within the scope of items that are not allowed to be taken out of the castle in the agreement. If Yang Jing had not made various preparations based on his intuition before publishing these three paintings, perhaps these three paintings would have been brought back by the Valdi family.

But now these are nothing to Yang Jing. A few days ago, he went to the Greenwich Handicraft Market according to his intuition, bought some sketches there, and used a Li Dai Taoshou method to successfully bring the three sketches into the sketches he purchased, so that the origin of these three paintings can be explained very well.

Yang Jing spent 300 pounds to buy paintings on the market, but he found a bargain. British law would not care about it. After all, buying these things is your own will, and a purchase agreement was signed, so no one could say anything else.

But once these three paintings have been proved that the Valdi family was really brought out from their family's castle, then Yang Jing will definitely not be able to protect these three paintings, and will even sue for it and go to jail.

From a legal perspective, his behavior can be completely classified as "theft", and it is a very large amount.

Now that the Vardy family cannot provide evidence to prove that these three paintings were indeed brought out by Yang Jing from their castle, the origin of these three paintings is completely fine.
