Ten minutes later, Davis had already taken Xiao Ran and them to the study on the second floor.
Many antique artifacts and works of art stored on the second floor are treated as furnishings and placed in various rooms, looking more harmonious.
Instead of being seen as goods on different shelves or stored in vaults, as on the first floor, it looks messy.
In addition, the antique relics and works of art stored on the second floor also look more exquisite and more valuable.
As soon as he entered the study, Xiao Ran saw a small bronze sculpture on the desk, as well as several other items.
The moment he saw these things, he immediately pretended to be pleasantly surprised and said,
"Wow! Isn't this "Portrait of Miss Bogarni"? The godmother of abstract sculpture
" "Davis, I didn't expect you to have the work of the modern sculptor Brancusi, I don't know which "Portrait of Miss Boggani" is this?"
"With the current market situation, this 'Portrait of Miss Boggani' is worth at least $20 million, and selling it should solve your troubles, right?"
Hearing this, Davis couldn't help but show an embarrassed smile on his face.
The next moment, he shook his head slightly.
"Sean, the abstract sculpture on the table is indeed the famous "Portrait of Miss Bogarni
" "But it's just a copy, as we all know, the Portrait of Miss Bojani is in the Museum of Modern Art in New York
" "Compared to the original, this replica is slightly smaller, and there are differences in details, the two are not exactly the same
" "Another point is that this replica was made in the middle of the last century and is beautifully made, It's also an antique work of art,"
After listening to the explanation, Xiao Ran's face immediately flashed with regret.
And in the depths of his eyes, there was a hint of smile and a hint of joy.
In the eyes of others, this "Portrait of Miss Bogarni" is indeed a replica and has little value.
But in his eyes, this is a genuine top antique work of art, worth a lot.
The appearance of this "Portrait of Miss Bogani" proves one thing.
Brancusi, a master of modern sculpture, created a total of four "Portraits of Miss Boggani" instead of three!
People only know about the existence of the three sculptures, ignoring the sculpture of the same name, thinking that it is just a copy.
For Xiao Ran, this is definitely a big leak that cannot be missed.
And this big leak is not known at all, you can collect it yourself, instead of selling it.
"Hey! It turned out to be a replica, and it made me happy,"
he said regretfully.
Then he walked to the nearby museum, not admiring the Portrait of Miss Bogani, as if he had lost interest in the statue.
Davis did not notice the slightest abnormality, and also walked towards the museum shelf, continuing to introduce the antique artifacts and works of art displayed in the study.
"Sean, this is a general helmet of the Polish wing cavalry, more than three hundred years old, and it is worth a lot,"
Davis said, pointing to a helmet on the museum's shelf.
The helmet was a little deformed, and there were not only traces of rust on it, but also traces of knives and axes, which looked like that.
But in Xiao Ran's eyes, this Polish wing cavalry general's helmet looked like it was made three years ago, not three hundred years ago.
Several appraisal experts from auction houses obviously saw this, so they did not take this helmet with them.
Just like before, Xiao Ran only appreciated and did not speak.
When Davis asked for his appraisal opinion, he just smiled and didn't say anything more.
Seeing his performance, Daviston understood.
I acted out it again!
But this guy didn't give up, and he continued to perform, in case he succeeded.
Next, he took Xiao Ran to look at all the antique relics and works of art displayed on the second floor.
In this process, Xiao Ran's eyes flashed with surprise several times, but he did not show the slightest flaw.
In the blink of an eye, nearly an hour has passed.
After the tour, everyone returned to the first floor, sat down in the living area, and talked about business.
Without mincing around the bush, Xiao Ran came up and went straight to the point.
"Davis, I'm quite satisfied with the location of your antique store and the situation of this Baroque
building" "I want to buy this building and antique store, and all the goods in the store, but I have to see the list of goods before I can decide
" "You give an offer, if the price is right and reach an agreement, we can sign the contract at any time
" "Whew!"
Davis secretly let out a long breath and relaxed a little.
With the location of this building, if it is successfully sold, it will definitely be a huge amount.
At that time, in addition to paying off the arrears, there will be a large amount of money left, enough for yourself to enjoy your old age.
But he did not immediately give an offer, but pondered it.
After a moment, he suddenly replied
, "Sean, have you found valuable antique artifacts or works of art in my shop?"
"That's why you're going to eat all the goods in the store before you ask me to provide a list of goods?"
Xiao Ran did not answer this question, but just smiled softly.
His performance made Davis more firm in his judgment.
But let him want to break his head, but he couldn't think of what Xiao Ran found in the store.
He fell silent again, lowered his head slightly, and remained silent for a long time.
After a few minutes, he raised his head to look at Xiao Ran and said tentatively:
"Sean, if I only sell this building and the antique shop, but not the goods in the store, will you still accept it?"
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Ran shook his head firmly.
"If you don't include the goods in the store, even if it's only one less than it is now, the deal will only fall through!"
"In fact, I have a lot of options, and now in this depressed situation, there are countless antique shops that have been transferred, and many have closed down and liquidated"
Hearing this, Davis and his lawyer were stunned.
None of them expected that Xiao Ran would be so resolute and fearless!
This guy must have found something in the store, maybe even priceless antique artifacts or works of art.
However, he knew nothing.
In this case, there are only two outcomes for yourself.
One is to accept reality and agree to a deal.
Transfer the antique shop along with all the goods to this ruthless Chinese boy, and then watch him pick up a big leak.
Another result was to reject the deal.
Hire a top antiques and art appraisal expert to come and verify all the goods in the store.
In that case, there would be a huge price to pay and a huge risk of not having any new discoveries.
With their current economic situation, they simply cannot afford this high cost, nor can they afford such risks.
Unless a second buyer appears, willing to take over the building and the antique shop without asking for goods.
But at present, all walks of life are in a depression, everyone is clutching their money bags, where to find a second buyer?
Thinking of this, Davis couldn't help but feel that the roots of his teeth were a little itchy, and he was also very helpless.
This is Yang Mou!
It is to take advantage of the current depressed environment to force yourself to submit!
In fact, Xiao Ran really played a one-handed yang scheme.
He didn't worry about Davis withholding all the goods from the antique store and then finding a top expert to do the appraisal.
Let's not mention the high appraisal fee, Davis is reluctant, can he afford it!
Even if he gritted his teeth and paid for these expenses, those expert experts may not make new discoveries.
The treasures that the experts of the three auction houses did not find, these experts and scholars hired later may not be able to find them.
If Davis never finds these unknown leaks, he can only sell everything.
At that time, Xiao Ran casually arranged for a subordinate to come forward to buy, and he could still get it and save a lot of money.
Seeing Davis' uncomfortable expression of constipation, David secretly gave Xiao Ran a thumbs up.
After thinking for a moment, Davis said in a deep voice:
"Sean, this deal is not small, I have to think about it, I can't give you an answer immediately
" "Pulling a list for all the goods in the store also takes some time, it is a very troublesome thing
" "When I think clearly and make a list of goods, let's talk about the follow-up transaction"
A smile flashed in Xiao Ran's eyes, and David did the same.
They understood that Davis was preparing to drag it out for a day or two, and then find an expert to come over and palm his eyes, so they said so.
"No problem, Davis, I have enough patience, but I still hope you make a decision early
" "It's time for us to leave, looking forward to your good news, let's see you later"
Saying that, Xiao Ran stood up and shook hands with Davis to say goodbye.
He and David then took their leave and walked out of the antique shop.
