A treasure-appraisal maniac

Jason said it implicitly, but in fact, he only said part of it.

Although there are many good things in the royal family, there are really not many people who know how to appreciate them, including their Majesty the Queen.

But after all, this is your century-old inheritance from the royal family. It’s not bad to keep it as real estate. Don’t businessmen in China like to get a few antiques to show off, let alone the dignified royal family.

There is another very important reason: the royal family has no money.

The maintenance expenses of hundreds of millions of yuan a year have already made them stretched and have a headache. Where can they find the extra money to maintain the collection?

Some may say, how much money can be spent on maintaining a collection?

hehe!

Saying it can really scare someone to death.

Antique collections are quite expensive to maintain.

Take the Shenzhou Official Museum as an example. The annual maintenance cost of a third-class provincial museum is at least 300 million Shenzhou coins.

This includes labor, equipment, materials, technology, etc., each of which is a huge expense.

As for Lu Fei's museum, that's even more exaggerated.

Lu Fei invests an astonishing two billion yuan in management and maintenance costs for the museum every year.

Not to mention anything else, the annual replacement of security equipment alone accounts for one-third of the total investment.

Others say, how much money can your museum make in a year?

After investing so much, can you make back your money?

Nonsense, of course not.

If Lu Fei expected the museum to make money, he would have fainted in the toilet from crying.

What the museum displays is also a kind of culture, and the purpose is cultural circulation.

Not only Lu Fei’s museum, but all mainstream museums in the world, none of them make money.

The annual ticket revenue can cover labor expenses, water, electricity and venue expenses, which is already quite impressive.

Let’s give you the most direct number!

The Shenzhou Archaeological Headquarters allocates more than 8 billion to local museums every year. Do you think it can make money?

Although the royal family's collection is not a museum, the number of cultural relics it collects is no less than that of any mainstream museum, and the quality is much better than that of mainstream museums.

The more valuable the cultural relics are, the higher the maintenance costs are. This is inevitable.

The next big thing is security costs.

From an intuitive point of view, the royal family's collection is roughly the same as that of the Thomas family, and the architecture and internal structure are also similar. It is just that the quantity is not as large as that of the Thomas family, but the quality is not inferior at all.

After Lu Fei annexed the Thomas family, he once learned about the maintenance costs from Murray. The total annual maintenance cost of the Thomas family collection exceeds 1.8 billion U.S. dollars.

Of course, the Thomas family is not short of money and invests the best, but then

No matter how careful the budget is, if you want to protect the quality of cultural relics and safety hazards to the maximum extent, with the scale of the royal family, the annual funds required will not be less than 800 million U.S. dollars.

Such a huge expense would cost them their lives, and even if they squeezed all the oil out of their bones, they might not be able to get it back.

The most important thing is that they think it is not worth it.

If it is a necessity, forget about the money you have to spend.

There is not a single knowledgeable person in the entire royal family. It is totally uneconomical to spend such a high price just to show off.

With this kind of earth-moving method of maintenance, hundreds of thousands per year are enough. Although the quality is definitely not as good as the former, the essential purposes of the two are also different!

The former requires high investment in maintenance and can be enjoyed at any time.

No one in the royal family knows anything about it, and they don’t have this hobby, so there is no need to appreciate it.

Spending hundreds of thousands to build a warehouse to store these things is enough.

Of course, Jason couldn't say this embarrassing thing openly. After all, the royal family also wanted to save face.

Fortunately, Lu Fei also understood the general idea and did not dig deeper.

"Sorry, I misunderstood." Lu Fei said with a smile.

"Mr. Lu Fei, you're welcome.

You are a collector, so our maintenance method will definitely not catch your eye. It is normal for you to dislike it. "

Um!

Lu Fei nodded with satisfaction, saying that this young man could talk and had a future.

“Jason, can you show me your registration slip?

There are so many treasures, it is unrealistic to appreciate them one by one. I will take a look at the registration list, and if you are interested, just take a look. Lu Fei asked.

"Of course, no problem, please wait."

Jason happily agreed and did not shy away from Lu Fei. He walked to a locker at the door, opened the drawer, took out three thick registers and put them on the desk.

Lu Fei came over and looked through it with interest.

Not to mention, their registration is really detailed. Not only does it have various detailed information about the antiques, but each object is also accompanied by photos, which are clear at a glance.

Lu Fei took out his cigarettes and lighter, and was stunned for a moment when he was about to light a cigarette.

"Prince Jason, is it allowed to smoke here?"

"Well"

Jason was embarrassed for a while.

Jason thought to himself, there are no smoking warning signs everywhere on the walls, can’t you see them?

This is a fire prevention area. Do you think we can smoke?

He originally wanted to refuse, but thinking of Lu Fei's special status, he hesitated and held it back.

I still hope to hug Lu Fei's thick legs. It would be unjust to offend Lu Fei because of this problem. Anyway, I am by his side and there will be no safety risks, so just let him be! Jason said it implicitly, but in fact, he only said part of it.
