Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 927 Buy
A cooing sound interrupted Yang Dongxu's concentration on the bronze.
He turned his head in embarrassment and smiled apologetically, but his eyes couldn't help but fall on the Hayes Peak. It was too big.
Especially when observing at such a close distance after taking off the coat, if a man has poor concentration, he may easily get the nosebleed scene in the movie.
You must know that Hayes is more than 1.8 meters tall. With such a tall figure, her pair of breasts still make people feel so majestic. I am worried that she will lose her balance when walking.
"The car is outside. If you don't have anything you want to buy..." Tuoyi, who was paying attention to the sword, suddenly turned his head and gave Yang Dongxu an ambiguous smile that every man would understand.
"No...I'm just watching..." Yang Dongxu wanted to explain something, but when he thought about it, the matter became darker and darker, and Tuoyi's smile became even more filthy as he explained, so he simply
Ignore this guy: "Can you show me Mr. Craven's thing?"
He simply changed the topic and pointed at the bronze vessel that he had just observed that seemed to have been casually thrown on the ground.
At this time, the price of the cross sword has reached a high price of 3.6 million pounds. Even if the sword really has some magic power, this sky-high price has reached the ceiling.
Therefore, those who could afford the price and wanted the sword did not want to increase the price because they felt it was not worth it. So a few people did not increase the price, but discussed in a low voice.
"You're too polite, is that it?" Although Luo Fu wanted someone to buy the Cross Sword at such a sky-high price, he was very anxious, but he had to try to stay calm, so when Yang Dongxu spoke, he tried to keep a smile on his face
Less stiff and more enthusiastic, he pointed at a bronze statue over half a meter high.
This statue is very in line with European art aesthetics. There are many sculptures of naked women and men on it.
"No, the one next to me fell to the ground."
"This." Luo Fu walked over. Then he looked left and right as if to observe what this thing was, and then recalled it, because there was no small explanation label next to this thing. But after turning his mind for several times, he didn't think of this.
What is this thing?
So he started looking for the gloves he was wearing when he was moving things, because they looked too dirty, and he didn't know how long they had been left in the basement. They were brought up when he was moving the collection.
Because the first transactions were all jewelry, which were all packed in clean jewelry boxes, so he took off his gloves and threw them away without knowing where.
"Whoever can move this thing up first?" Luo Fu said to his son who was sitting far away.
I will be delivering the items purchased to the buyers later, so I must not get my hands dirty.
Little Kraven's eyes were full of disgust, and he was obviously afraid of getting dirty. But he also clearly knew that how much money he could sell for today would affect his life in the future, so he tried his best to keep a forced smile on his face and walked over to move the things over.
.
"What is this?" Troy couldn't help asking as he looked at the thing in front of him.
"How do I know?" Something shrugged, "I was just curious and came over to take a look."
But while he was speaking, his eyes narrowed. If anyone paid attention and observed carefully, they would find that his pupils contracted instantly when he saw this thing, and then he was suppressed with extreme excitement.
"This thing seems to be the head of some animal. There are cutting marks on the neck. It may have been cut from a bronze statue of some animal." Hayes, who was still blushing, said.
Yang Dongxu reached out and took out a handkerchief from the table. It contained high-end red wine and cigars, and the things he used were very particular, so there was a white and silky handkerchief on the table instead of a tissue.
He picked it up with a handkerchief to observe it, and weighed it in his hand. Yang Dongxu said, "The shape should be that of an animal's head. It's quite heavy."
"It should be a rooster head." Tuoyi, who was sitting next to him, looked at the bronze animal head in Yang Dongxu's hand and said, "Are there any famous bronze rooster statues whose heads were cut off?"
"never heard of that."
Many people shook their heads.
"Are you talking about the Gallic chicken?" The bearded man who was the first to buy the brooch said while puffing on his cigar and running his palms on his female companion's thighs.
"Haha... I might have to go to France and ask about this." Everyone in the room laughed. Even the Luo Fus, who seemed a little embarrassed about selling their property, laughed loudly.
As an EU country, the UK and many EU developed countries do not deal with it, or in other words, in their view, everyone except themselves is indigenous.
I think back then, the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets was so powerful, not to mention the European Union, and it was not taken seriously by them when looking at the whole world. But now, when talking about France, all kinds of romance, all kinds of fashion, and all kinds of high-end tastes are always mentioned. Look.
To the point where they walk with their necks raised.
"I haven't heard of any particularly famous rooster statue with its head missing. Maybe it was something my grandfather got from the old man and piled it up with some groceries in the basement." After laughing, Luo Fu said.
If it were at other open trade fairs, even he wouldn't know what this thing is or its origin. But it would definitely be trumpeted and the price would be high.
But he obviously couldn't do this in such a private circle trade fair. After all, he wanted to restore the glory of his family. How could his noble self tarnish his reputation like this just for a little money?
"No records?" Yang Dongxu asked casually.
"There really is no such thing." Luo Fu shook his head, then pointed to the back, "There are no records of anything in that area, so it shouldn't be anything important.
But it was placed together with those porcelains before, maybe it came from China instead of France. My grandfather came from China at that time...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend.
But in fact, my grandfather did bring back a lot of things. Maybe because he came from far away China, and the cultural surprise, these exquisite things were not recorded in too much detail. If you want them, I can send them to you.
Already."
The reason why he was so generous to Yang Dongxu and spoke with honorifics was naturally not because he knew that Yang Dongxu was very rich. Except for the royal family, in the eyes of many British people, all other wealthy people were nouveau riche. There was no elegant nouveau riche at all.
The reason why he was so polite was because Yang Dongxu was brought by Tuoyi and was in Tuoyi's manor before. He could clearly see Tuoyi's respect for the oriental man in front of him.
What's more important is that Troy is now one of the main buyers of the sword, and he is also very powerful in the UK. A rusty-looking animal head of unknown origin is not valuable to him and is used to please him.
Troy is a great deal.
Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows, then looked down at the bronze head in his hand, "Well, I want a few pieces of porcelain over there, plus 100,000 pounds for this thing."
He pointed at some vases and plates not far away.
"No, no, no, you have packed all the 50,000 pounds." Luo Fu waved his hand quickly.
In fact, Europeans and Americans also like exquisite porcelain. After all, China means porcelain in English. However, in ancient times, foreigners did not have such advanced porcelain making technology, and the distance was long, so the porcelain exported from China was a high-end product.
.
Nowadays, if rich people want to buy some stylish porcelain tableware, they first choose porcelain from Japan or France. Because the porcelain from these two places gives people a very noble feeling.
On the other hand, in China, the birthplace of porcelain, porcelain is obviously an ancestral craft, but it just cannot be marketed. The porcelains Yang Dongxu pointed to are not expensive antiques, but are things from the late Qing Dynasty.
And it's not the relatively rare single-color glaze or blue and white, or filigree enamel. It just looks relatively exquisite, an ornament in the houses of some wealthy families in Kudat, or simply tableware.
"Just those few items, 100,000 pounds, you continue to do your work." Yang Dongxu obviously had no intention of bargaining with Luo Fu.
In other words, this small amount of money is not worth owing a favor. Neither he nor Toi's favor is so cheap.
"Then...then it's one hundred thousand pounds." Luo Fu's eyes paused on Yang Dongxu's face for a few seconds. He noticed the impatience in his eyes, and Luo Fu smiled awkwardly.
In fact, he didn't seem to care just now, but in fact he was trying to test it. He had been observing Yang Dongxu's expression to see if this oriental man valued this bronze and knew whether he wanted to 'pick up the leaks'.
The current observation is that the Eastern man seemed to be really just curious to see what this bronze was at first.
Finally, when I said it was free, the other person raised his eyebrows and felt annoyed, so he just bought the thing to show that he was not short of money.
This kind of reaction was familiar to him. Many Chinese people came to study abroad, or Chinese businessmen came to the UK to do business. When provoked, their favorite way to do it was to throw out a lot of money to prove that they were not short of money.
In Luo Fu's opinion, such an approach is undoubtedly a very vulgar performance. How can a person's nobility and power be disguised with dirty money?
It's just that...it would be nice if all the money of those country bumpkins was their own, so they have no class and no money. God has been taking a nap these years.
After paying the money, Luo Fu asked his son to pack the things Yang Dongxu bought. Because it was not an important thing, there was no special packaging box. In the end, little Craven had to use a cardboard box to pack the things he bought.
Glancing at the porcelain that would be worth hundreds of thousands a piece if he took it back to China, and the bronze that was suspected to be a national treasure, just piled randomly in the cardboard box, Yang Dongxu felt a little mixed for a moment, angry and helpless.
