In the previous life, after 2000, the state and some wealthy businessmen bought some animal heads from foreign auction houses and donated them to the state. At that time, the prices were already very high.
Meng Haisheng felt a little regretful. Why didn't he remember this earlier? If he could go abroad to pick up bargains in the late 1980s, the price would be very cheap, just a few thousand dollars.
It would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to go abroad now, but that is cheaper than the millions of dollars bought after 2000.
"Master Zhou, who reproduced the twelve zodiac animal heads?" Meng Haisheng asked.
"I heard that it was reproduced by a master of cultural relics restoration. I heard from the grapevine that even if a master of cultural relics identification came, he might not be able to identify it."
"He is so amazing. Master Zhou, do you know his name?"
"It's Wu Jiang."
Meng Haisheng just felt that the name sounded familiar. He seemed to have heard it somewhere.
Zhou Wenqi took out a few exquisite brochures from his bag and distributed them to everyone. Meng Haisheng saw Wu Jiang's photo at a glance. He laughed in his heart. Wasn't this the one who fooled the Hou family by buying fake porcelain?
However, Wu Jiang in the photo was wearing a Zhongshan suit, his hair was very neat and clean, and he wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He really looked like a scholar.
"The twelve zodiac animal heads look really good. Dad, are you interested in seeing them?" Meng Haisheng asked.
"Okay, let's go see the national cultural relics." Meng Guangzhu was very interested in national cultural relics and agreed readily.
"Then it's settled. Tomorrow morning we'll go to the cultural relics exhibition, and maybe we can buy some souvenirs of the bronze heads of the twelve zodiac animals. Qianqian will be back in the afternoon, so let's go to the airport to pick her up."
"Okay."
"Master Zhou, do you know where the real heads of the twelve zodiac animals are now?"
"I heard that most of them are in Mexico, and some are in Europe. A few days ago, I talked about the heads of the twelve zodiac animals with my old friends. They said that someone in Mexico wanted to sell the dragon head last year, but for some reason, there was no news."
"If all the animal heads can be recovered, it will definitely cause an uproar in the country." Meng Haisheng thought to himself. July 1st is coming soon. He plans to buy a few animal heads to add a bit of joy to the country and build momentum for the Fourth Continent Group.
"Haisheng, do you plan to go to Mexico to buy the heads of the twelve zodiac animals?" Zhou Wenqi asked.
"Yes, I have this plan." Meng Haisheng smiled.
"That's just right. We Hong Kong businessmen also have this idea. Recently, we have been asking around the world about the whereabouts of the twelve zodiac animal heads."
"I will contact you when there is news. We can jointly purchase the twelve zodiac animal heads and donate them to the country."
"Master Zhou is righteous!" Meng Haisheng sighed.
After the banquet, Meng Haisheng kept the matter of the twelve zodiac animal heads in mind and planned to let Zhang Lei check whether he could buy back the animal heads that he intended to resell first.
As for those that were hidden, he planned to defeat them one by one and buy them back slowly.
The next day, the old Meng family and their group went to see the cultural relics exhibition in a mighty manner.
The twelve zodiac animal heads were laid out in a row, which was very spectacular. Meng Haisheng looked at them one by one, and his heart was full of emotion: if you are weak, you will be beaten. Only by becoming strong can you have the right to speak.
The cultural relics exhibition also exhibited a lot of porcelain and jade.
Meng Haisheng and Zhou Wenqi discussed while looking at the cultural relics. The focus of their discussion was not the historical value of the cultural relics, but their current market price.
"I have a vase that is similar in shape to this Tang Sancai vase, but the pattern is different. Master Zhou, how much do you think I can sell it for at the auction house?"
"It's hard to say. Tang Sancai is rare. You have it and you are not short of money, so keep it. Otherwise, when you want to buy it back, the price will probably increase several times."
Meng Haisheng nodded, not wanting to say that he had collected a lot of antique jades in the 1980s, including seven or eight pieces of Tang Sancai.
When the tour guide next to him was explaining the cultural relics, he couldn't help but frown when listening to their conversation. If others didn't understand the situation, they might mistakenly think that they were here to rob the cultural relics on display.
In the afternoon, Meng Haisheng led everyone to the airport to pick up Meng Qianqian on time.
He Zhen walked halfway and bought a bouquet of flowers on purpose, wanting to give Meng Qianqian a surprise.
Meng Qianqian, who had been on the plane for more than ten hours, just felt exhausted and didn't want to say a word.
She was alone with two children, and even with two nannies to help, she was still so tired that her head was buzzing.
But when she saw her family and lover standing not far away waiting for her, all her tiredness disappeared.
"Mom and Dad, why did you come to the airport?"
Meng Qianqian's eyes were slightly red, and she took two quick steps forward to give Qu Lan a big hug.
"Are you tired? I heard from Haisheng that you wantSitting on a plane for more than ten hours, with two children, I feel very uncomfortable. "
Qu Lan has experienced the hardship of taking care of children, so she can naturally understand how difficult it is for Meng Qianqian.
"Fortunately, I have a nanny to help me, so I am not that tired."
"You said you are not tired. I see that you have such heavy dark circles under your eyes. I am afraid that you have not slept well. Let's go home quickly. I will help you take care of the children and you can have a good sleep."
"Okay."
Meng Qianqian talked with Meng Guangzhu and Qu Lan for a long time before finally seeing He Zhen holding flowers.
She rolled her eyes at He Zhen directly, because it was because of He Zhen that she, a full-time mother, almost became a frequent flyer.
"Wife, you have worked hard."
He Zhen smiled and stuffed the flowers into Meng Qianqian's arms.
"It's good that you know. "
Meng Qianqian accepted the flowers and finally smiled at He Zhen.
Meng Qianqian came back and there was another bustle, but Meng Haisheng's attention was not on this.
He asked Zhang Lei to check the matter of the twelve zodiac animal heads and soon there was a clue.
When he got home in the evening, he immediately turned on the computer and checked the email Zhang Lei sent him.
Sure enough, just as he remembered, the first to appear were the horse head, tiger head, and ox head.
These three animal heads have been traded recently, the horse head has reached 450,000 dollars, and the other two are also about the same price.
It seems that he is going to take action Hurry up, otherwise the price will go up.
After thinking it over, Meng Haisheng wanted to let Momo do the purchase of the animal heads.
She went to college in Mexico. Although she majored in physics, she also achieved good results in painting and made many friends.
If she bought the animal heads privately, it would definitely not attract too many people's attention.
He could also take advantage of this time to quickly find out the whereabouts of other animal heads.
The faster the speed, the lower his purchase price will be.
If it takes too long, some unscrupulous businessmen may raise the price.
