That morning a local collector who learned about the Mummy came to visit Suthiluck's residence.
Uncle Liu had told about the background and character of the person in detail to Kong before he met him, and taught him how to deal with the situation.
"Sorry, you came too late, I had destroyed the corpse and sprinkled the ashes into the ocean so that it able to return to its homeland!" Kong said, sitting down crossing his legs and trying to be calm.
"Do you think I will believe it?" He grinned and lit a cigar to make him look bossy. "I respect your father and mourn for him, so I'm...delaying my visiting to here! I think it's time to start the business again, don't you agree?"
"Why do you think I'm still keeping it?" Kong lazy to have a chit chat.
"The price of the mummy is even more expensive than the life of your father and brother, I don't believe you are willing to burn it just like that?"
His words made sense, but in fact Kong really wanted to burn it, if only he didn't come back to life and now haunt his house.
"Well, unfortunately I didn't think like that, I just thought that damn Mummy was the cause of my father and brother's death, why should I keep it while I have to lose my family? I couldn't wait to destroy it to get revenged!" Kong said.
"So I decided to cremate it and make as an offering so that the spirits of my father and brother could be in peace! How brilliant my idea was, right?"
The collector did not reply, he silent and thought for a moment while enjoying his cigar. He couldn't believe that the young man in front of him so...foolish, so he's not going to hesitate anymore.
"I have evidence that you smuggle an illegal artifact from China, if this revealed, you're not only have to give up all assets from the excavation to be confiscated, you may also hardly escape from court and your family's auction business certificate will be canceled!" he threatened.
"You may report me if you can prove that I hide the artifact in my house..." Kong said casually, even though he did not know what kind of evidence the man had, but he obviously knew the purpose of him wanting the benefit from it.
"After all, I was planning to close this business, because I didn't study archeology for my undergraduate degree..." add Kong.
"Well, maybe you don't care, but even if you aren't proven of keeping the mummy, but you will still be asked for responsibility of obliterated the historical heritage, except..." he paused then again took his cigar while signaled to his men.
Kong raised his eyebrows and grinned.
"You can prove that the mummy shipping address is not direct to here!" the old man show a folder that containing the original document of shipping and mummy photographic evidence.
Kong look at it in a glance, and immediately recognized the document with his name, address, signature and his family stamp.
Kong regretted his decision to use illegal shipping services, but at that time he had no choice, it the only company that was willing to accept the job, but he did not believe that he would get betrayed, or actually his actions had been monitored.
Kong gritted his teeth but remained calm to face the situation. "Mention your conditions to me!" said Kong while make a gesture and broadly smiled.
"Hahaha..." The man laughed and handed his cigar to his men. "Well, at first, I wanted to buy 60% of the auction company's shares of yours, but as you said you wanted to close it, what if..." he paused before continuing.
"Leave the management of the business to me, with a calculation of 5:5, besides being able to keep your family's legacy, you can enjoy the benefits of it without the need to intervene!"
