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, which was too big.
Especially for such a close observation 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 all men knew.
"No...I'm just looking..." Yang Dongxu wanted to explain something, but thinking about this matter, it became darker and darker, and Tuoyi's smile became more dirty as he explained, so he simply Ignore this guy: "Can you show me Mr. Craven's thing?"
He simply changed the subject and pointed at the bronze vessel that he had just observed that seemed to have been 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, the sky-high price has reached the ceiling.
Therefore, people who can afford the price and want this sword do not want to increase the price because they feel it is not worth it. So a few people didn't raise the price, but started discussing 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 more than 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 him fell to the ground."
"This." Luo Fu walked over. Then he looked around and seemed to be observing what this thing was, and then recalled it, because there was no small explanation label next to this thing. But after turning my mind for several times, I still didn’t realize what this thing was.
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 just now were all jewelry, which were all packed in clean jewelry boxes, so he took off his gloves and threw them somewhere.
"Whoever can move this thing up first?" Luo Fu said to his son 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 obviously knew in his heart 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.
"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 here to have a look."
But when he spoke, his eyes narrowed. If anyone paid attention and observed carefully, they would find that his pupils shrank 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. The high-end red wine was paired with 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 the head of some kind of animal. It's quite heavy."
"It should be a rooster head." Troy, 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 Luofu and his son, who seemed a little embarrassed about selling off their property, laughed loudly.
As an EU country, the UK and many developed EU countries do not deal with it, or in other words, in their view, everyone except themselves is indigenous.
I think the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets was so powerful back then, and even the European Union was not taken seriously by them when looking at the whole world. But now when we talk about France, we always hear all kinds of romance, all kinds of fashion, and all kinds of high-end tastes. I saw them walking 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 stacked it with some groceries in the basement." Luo Fu said after laughing.
If it were at other open trade fairs, even he wouldn't know what this thing was or what its origins were. But it will definitely be a big boast and a high price.
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.
However, it was placed together with those porcelains before, which may have come from China rather than France. My grandpa came from China... Sorry, I didn't mean to offend.
But in fact, my grandfather did bring back a lot of things. Perhaps because he came from far away China, and because of the cultural surprise, these exquisite things were not recorded in too much detail. If you want it, I'll give it to you. "
That's why he was so generous to Yang Dongxu and spoke with honorifics. Of course it's not because he knows that Yang Dongxu is very rich. Except for the royal family, in the eyes of many British people, other wealthy people are nouveau riche, and there is 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 Troy'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. In his opinion, a rusty animal head with unknown origins was not valuable, and it was a good deal to use it to please Troy.
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, European and American people also like exquisite porcelain. After all, China means porcelain in English. However, in ancient times, foreigners did not have such advanced porcelain-making skills, and the distance was long, so the porcelain exported from China was a high-end product.
Nowadays, if wealthy people want to buy some stylish porcelain tableware, they first choose Japanese or French porcelain. Because the porcelain from these two places gives people a very noble feeling.
Looking back at China, the birthplace of porcelain, it is clear that porcelain is an ancestral craft, but it just cannot find a market. The porcelains Yang Dongxu pointed to were not expensive antiques, but were items 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, like the ornaments 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 also testing. I have been observing Yang Dongxu's expression to see if this oriental man values this bronze and knows if he wants to 'pick up the missing pieces'.
The current observation is that the oriental 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, showing that he was not short of money.
This kind of reaction is familiar to him, from many Chinese who come to study abroad, or Chinese businessmen who come to the UK to do business. My favorite thing to do when being provoked is to throw out a lot of money to prove that I am not short of money.
In Luo Fu's view, 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 there is no class, then there is no money, and God has been dozing off 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 brought back to China, and the bronze that was suspected to be a national treasure, which were piled randomly in the cardboard box, Yang Dongxu felt a little mixed for a moment, indignant and helpless.
