MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 49 Top 200 cities No. 1
Lyasim asked Li Xiaoshuai, what were you talking about just now, it seemed to be quite lively.
"I just repaired a copper incense burner that was not underestimated. Many people were surprised."
"Li, you are an excellent collector, and all of our appraisers at Christie admire you very much."
After these words were translated by Shen Nan, it was like a thunderous sound in the small shop hall, which stunned everyone. It is absolutely difficult to make the appraisers up and down the dignified Christie Auction House admire.
Most of the experts are very proud people. Which one would easily admit defeat? Now, in front of so many people, both appraisers admit to admiring Li Xiaoshuai. Yes, and his eyesight is so good that the experts of foreign devils have to be convinced.
Cook also asked Li Xiaoshuai, did you find any porcelain today?
"Yes, it's a good thing that you will be very interested in."
After translating, Luo Yang immediately thought of the blue and white teapot that his cousin bought in the morning, which is called nondescript. He was still wondering, is that teapot also a treasure? It doesn't look like it?
Ai Hua also understood English, and he urged Li Xiaoshuai to take it out quickly so that everyone could see.
When the thing was taken out, Luo Yang saw that it was the blue and white teapot.
Cao Ping became suspicious when he saw it, and he wanted to ask questions politely. The teapot had already been snatched away by the foreign devil named Cook, and the guy called out, "Oh, the cake seller."
Well, as soon as the cake is sold, everyone knows that there must be a drama here, and they are all waiting for the news to be released.
I saw Cook staring at the teapot for a while, and then looked at the emblem at the bottom of the pot, and finally took out the magnifying glass and kept looking at it, muttering in his mouth and saying these things, and his face was full. It's like a ghost.
That's not all, he turned the bottom of the pot over again, pointed to the emblem and asked Laamsi to come over and take a look. The two stared at Li Xiaoshuai for a while.
"What, do I have crumbs on my face?"
Cook said, "No, I saw your face covered in gold coins."
Once these words were translated, everyone immediately understood that this nondescript teapot is also an antique, and it is an antique that can be auctioned.
Luo Yang was in a hurry. He asked Li Xiaoshuai what the mystery of this teapot was. You should tell me quickly, you will be too private.
Li Xiaoshuai said that many people think this pot is outrageous, but it is indeed an antique, but he is not from the Rabbit Country, but from Germany.
This teapot was produced by the German Meissen Porcelain Factory during the reign of Emperor Wilhelm I of Germany. It can also be said that it was produced by the German Royal Kiln Factory.
Oh. Now everyone's doubts were resolved.
No wonder it looked a bit nondescript. It turned out to be foreign goods. As for the two foreigners, they looked thrilling, because it was the imperial porcelain of the German emperor, and it was completely understandable that it could be photographed.
Shen Nan, who is in charge of translation today, will look at Li Xiaoshuai again, and he will look at him with the eyes of a demon. I wondered how this little Chi Lao had such a good luck, and the German imperial kiln porcelain could also be received.
That's not all, it's even more surprising that it was collected in West Lake City.
And his eyesight, where did he learn it from, why is it so powerful.
After thinking about it, this is a rare opportunity to learn experience, and Shen Nan will not miss it.
The pot was watched by turns in the crowd, and everyone looked very carefully. Because this is about economic benefits, if I can pick one up myself, I will send it.
As soon as the German teapot thing was over, Luo Yang took out another oil painting, put it on Lyasim's hand with a smile, and motioned for him to take a look too.
"It's an old painting," Lyasim said with certainty.
Following Shen Nan's translation, everyone focused their attention on this gray painting.
It's not bad, the picture can be vaguely seen that this is a landscape painting, there are many flowers and plants on the picture, and the others are hard to understand.
It took another long time before the Laiasim sighed and said that this is a painting by Sir Matthew Smith of the London School of Painting at the end of the 19th century, and it is still a masterpiece.
He also asked Li Xiaoshuai not to deal with it, it looked too ugly, and I was sorry for the famous paintings of the sages.
Seeing Li Xiaoshuai's look at him, Zhang Ruoxuan knew that he had another trick to change, "Tell me, I'll buy it for you."
"Two catties of good flour and a plastic washbasin."
"That's all?" Zhang Ruoxuan still didn't believe it.
After a while, Zhang Ruoxuan came in with a flour bag in his left hand and a plastic washbasin in his right. "Hurry up, let's open our eyes."
Seeing that Li Xiaoshuai made a pot of noodles, Luo Yang still wondered, is this restoring ancient paintings or making cakes?
Shen Nan said in a translator, don't be surprised, He Nian is repairing ancient paintings.
Well, foreign experts have approved it, let's just wait.
Li Xiaoshuai put the oil painting on the table, pulled out a small dough from the basin, kneaded it into a stick in his hand, and rolled it back and forth on the screen.
Now everyone can see that Li Xiaoshuai is using dough to absorb the dust on the screen. The dough is soft, sticky, and does not hurt the picture, which is simply a clever idea.
Luo Yang exclaimed in his heart, today is considered to be an eye opening, there are days outside the sky, and the words of the ancients are still very reasonable.
Soon the picture is much cleaner, and the picture also shows the characteristics of simplicity and elegance. Few people know who the author of this painting, Matthew Smith, is, but everyone can conclude that this is a painting by a famous artist.
Ai Hua: "Brother, you are omnipotent. You are proficient in everything from porcelain, Chinese and foreign painting and calligraphy, furniture, and bronzeware. I don't even support the wall, so I will serve you!"
Li Xiaoshuai also asked Shen Nan if his teapots and oil paintings could go abroad?
The answer is that these are foreign cultural relics, which are not restricted by the domestic cultural relics law and can go abroad.
Later, Shen Nan translated this sentence into English, and the two foreigners immediately understood and said that they wanted to let two things be photographed. The auction, of course, is their own Christie's auction house.
Li Xiaoshuai frowned and said, "This painting is worthless. The lesser-known painter has reached the top of $300,000. Is the auction a big deal?"
Laiasim said that ~www.novelbuddy.com~ would smuggle the underlying transactions, and he also suggested that he had a way to sell this painting to the UK.
Li Xiaoshuai: "You can take the painting now. After selling it, give me $220,000. Anything more will be yours."
"Ok" This time, there is extra money, and Lyasim is happy.
Luo Yang calculated the account in his mind. When the painting was bought, it cost 1,500 soft sister coins, and now it is sold for 220,000 US dollars, which is about 1.5 million soft sister coins. This instant is a hundred times the profit.
Doing antiques has a bright future!
In my heart, I also have great confidence in the large incense burner imitating the official kiln that Li Xiaoshuai bought with 250,000 yuan to build Yongjiang Antique City. He thought that the worst thing would be a Qing Dynasty official kiln.
Oops, this is another 100-fold increase. It's scary. With tens of millions of profits, how many years have to be spent working hard for the mahogany workshop of my own family?
In the end, Li Xiaoshuai's German teapot was also circulated in private. However, the price of this one is relatively high. Li Xiaoshuai did not set a price, but let Cook inform him of the news at any time. In the end, it is up to him to decide whether to buy it or not.
Seeing that it was time for lunch, Ai Hua waved his hand and left with Li Xiaoshuai. . . . . .
Passing by the street stall in the market, the stall owner who sold oil paintings just now saw this painting that had changed a lot, and dragged Shen Nan to ask, did you buy this painting?
"I bought it, you sold this painting?" Many stall owners gathered around this meeting, wanting to hear the inside story.
Shen Nan said, bro, you have misunderstood. This is a famous painting. Just now, they handed it over to a foreigner and sold it for $220,000.
"220,000, or US dollars. Wow; ah ah ah..." The stall owner burst into tears. . . . . .
