Chapter 765: Codebook From Berlin

"This codebook comes from Berlin and was donated by the generous Mr. Woolley Fergus. ≯≧≥ Speaking of the origin of this codebook, it has to be traced back more than seventy years ago. As Churchill's translator, Hugh Rancy Believed to be the first Briton to be allowed into the bunker where Hitler hid after the fall of Berlin. In that dank bunker, he was told by Soviet sentries that he could take something from the bunker back to London as a gift. Memorial. In Hitler's conference room, he took one of the volumes of the Bruckhaus Encyclopedia, and this codebook, which was placed on the shelf."

"After returning to China, he handed over the code book to Churchill, but this code book was not taken seriously. The war has been won, no matter what information is recorded on it, it is not important to the British who have defeated the devil After a symbolic deciphering work, the codebook was sent to a museum in London together with other memorabilia. After several rounds, this codebook came to a collector from Berlin, that is, our Generous Mr Woolley Fergus."

While speaking, the host looked at Woolley Fergus with a smile on his face, and the latter also nodded with a smile, expressing that you are welcome.

"No one knows what is written on it. The messy characters are like the graffiti of a madman. If it is not a leader's nonsense at the last moment, then he must have buried some shocking secrets... But these are not important anymore Yes. It once belonged to a demon, but now it will be used for a great cause. The starting price is one million dollars, and each increase must not be less than one hundred thousand. All proceeds from the auction will be used to help those who are homeless due to war Returnable people!"

As soon as the words were spoken, someone in the audience raised a sign.

"One million! Thanks to the first—oh, my God, two million! Mr. Fergus from Paris directly raised the price by one million dollars! Thank you for your generosity..."

The auction is conducted in an open manner, and the host will offer words of blessing to each bidder, no matter how much the bid increases. Perhaps frightened by Mr. Fergus' financial resources to directly double the price, the host tapped the hammer twice but no one raised his card.

Jiang Chen glanced at Carmen Rothschild's direction, and saw that he was sipping red wine indifferently, as if he was not very interested in this product.

"Are there any interested buyers? If not - three million!"

Jiang Chen held up the sign.

"One time for three million! Two times for three million! Three times! Deal! Thank you Mr. Jiang Chen, your generosity will be remembered by everyone!"

3 million to buy a laptop, in the eyes of those who don’t know the truth, they are full and have nothing to do. Collections with no artistic value will end up in history museums at most.

There will not be much room for appreciation. However, this was at a charity gala, no one would think so, and the sights that looked at Jiang Chen were mostly praise and blessings.

Everyone believed that he wanted to do something for the poor from the bottom of his heart, so he directly increased the price by one million, and offered a high price of three million US dollars.

There were only two people who didn't think so, one was Jiang Chen himself, and the other was Rothschild sitting at the other end of the venue.

The auction will continue, but there will be nothing interesting about the next lot on display. Jiang Chen paid attention to Carmen's side. Except for the pen he used, he only took pictures of two things. A fifteenth-century Western European knight's armor, a winery in Croatia.

In fact, Jiang Chen was quite interested in that winery, but when he thought about it, Croatia seemed to be located in the Balkan Peninsula, and his thoughts faded a lot.

The Balkan Peninsula seems to be the gateway to Europe for refugees, and it is even more chaotic now. After buying a winery in this place, Jiang Chen felt that he might not have much interest in going there for vacation. And speaking of it, he seems to have just bought a golf course at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan, and the engineering team he hired is converting that golf course into a private estate that is not open to the public.

After a while, hire a few more gardeners, plant a vine in that manor, and let's set up a winery for fun.

Just as Jiang Chen was thinking this way, Mr. Rothschild had already won the bid for the manor with 90 million US dollars.

The auction came to an end, and Adam Galloway announced to the guests present the funds raised by the auction, a total of 420 million U.S. dollars. Adhering to the principle of openness, Mr. Galloway made a promise to the people in accordance with the usual practice. The official websites of many charitable organizations, such as the International Red Cross Society, can monitor the whereabouts of this huge sum of money in real time, and invite people from all walks of life to jointly supervise.

Finally, he once again thanked generous entrepreneurs such as Jiang Chen and Rothschild. Especially Jiang Chen and Rothschild. The combined donations of these two people are almost equivalent to half of the funds raised by the audience.

After the party, Jiang Chen ran into Rothschild who was also going to the elevator on the way to the elevator.

"So, what is that funny thing you're talking about?"

"Didn't you already take pictures?" Carmen said with a smile.

"Are you referring to the $110 million painting, or the graffiti book that Yuan once used?"

"Haha, you're really humorous," Carmen couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud, "That's not some graffiti, but the original unsolved mysteries of the last century. Some people say that it records a passage of the Third Reich. A little-known secret. Some people say that it is a treasure map. MI6 has never given up on deciphering the code book, and the copy has been lying in the confidential archive. Of course, there is something the host said That’s right, so far no one has been able to crack the secrets recorded in this code book.”

"Do you think I can decipher it?" Jiang Chen joked, "You overestimate my strength. I'm afraid that if this original document is in my hands, it will also be the fate of lying in the archives."

"Then it's not my problem." Carmen laughed and teased Jiang Chen, "I just said it's an interesting thing, but I didn't say that you will definitely find the Nazi treasure."

Items worth more than one million auctioned at auctions are usually delivered by special escorts to the home of the winner. However, at Jiang Chen's request, he took the codebook directly from the auctioneer after paying the money.

After sending Xia Shiyu back to the hotel, Jiang Chen took the three million dollar codebook back to his residence on the top floor of the Central Building.

When he got home, Aisha had prepared the bath water for him, and the water temperature was just right.

Under the service of Aisha, Jiang Chen took a relaxing and pleasant bath. Wrapped in a bath towel, he returned to the study room from the bathroom, took the briefcase containing the password book, and Jiang Chen sat directly at the desk.

The black and gray cowhide is covered with the dust of history.

There is nothing written on the cover of the code book, only a small engraved swastika flag can be seen in the middle of the cover... (To be continued.) 8
