About an hour later.
The sons and daughters of the Wang family brothers and sisters successively brought over all the things collected in their respective homes.
These things include antique cultural relics and works of art, strange stones and jade, and even top-grade seal stones that have been cut in all directions but not carved, etc.
Almost without exception, these treasures are valuable and extremely rare.
Obviously, this is a treasure given by the old man of the Wang family to his children and grandchildren. It can even be said to be a family heirloom left to their family.
It is a pity that Mr. Wang died too early and too suddenly, and he did not have time to clearly explain the true value and significance of these things.
After his death, these treasures were taken out and sold by his unfilial descendants, which wasted all his efforts.
Seeing these valuable treasures, even Xiao Ran was very excited, and his eyes suddenly turned redder.
After pretending to conduct a serious appraisal, he increased the purchase price by another two million US dollars, reaching US$11.3 million, which was very generous.
Boss Zhai and others who were still staying in the antique shop, as well as the appraisal experts and collectors in the live broadcast room, had eyes that were almost bleeding with envy!
They all complained secretly.
Scolding Xiao Ran was too ruthless and a complete profiteer!
If it were them, even if they spent 20 million US dollars to acquire these newly acquired treasures, they would still be willing to do so!
It's a pity that they can only watch and covet.
No matter at the scene or in the live broadcast room, no experts or collectors jumped out to disclose the true value of these treasures.
This was taboo, and no one was willing to offend Xiao Ran at the huge risk of retaliation for the prodigal sons of the Wang family.
After more than two hours of visit and evaluation, Xiao Ran finally finished checking and evaluating all the goods in Songshizhai.
In this short period of time, it is destined to be just a quick visit and evaluation, not to mention in-depth and careful research and appraisal.
But that's for other forensic experts.
For Xiao Ran, there is no such problem at all.
With just one glance, he can determine the age and value of items in antique stores.
The so-called visit and evaluation is just a formality, just performed for others to see.
After the visit and assessment, Xiao Ran, Elaine, and the Wang family brothers and sisters returned to the reception area, sat down on the sofa, and started talking.
At this time, the lawyer hired by the Wang family has arrived.
The bullshit expert they hired to evaluate and appraise it had also arrived at the scene.
Originally, this so-called appraisal expert had some ideas and even wanted to prevent the Wang family from selling all the goods in the store.
However, when he saw that the person who was preparing to shoot all Song Shizhai's goods was Xiao Ran, and offered a sky-high price of more than 10 million US dollars, he immediately chose to shut up.
This guy knows very well that if he dares to break the rules and interfere with this business, he will not only attract crazy revenge, but also become infamous.
Once the tricks he played in Songshizhai are exposed, he will no longer be able to hang out in the antique circle. Who would dare to ask him to do an appraisal?
After sitting down on the sofa, Xiao Ran glanced at everyone present, and then said with a smile:
"I am quite satisfied with the goods from Songshizhai and am willing to purchase all the goods here."
"As for the transaction price, it is the US$11.3 million we just negotiated."
"As long as the transaction contract is signed, I will pay the price immediately and complete the transaction as soon as possible."
Before he finished speaking, the Wang brothers and sisters were all beaming with joy, and they were so excited that they could hardly sit still.
This is definitely a huge sum of money for their family.
Excluding donations and money dedicated to the Pelos family, each family can receive millions of dollars. Can you not be ecstatic about it?
But how do they know how much the things they sell are actually worth.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a huge golden mountain.
After calming down a little, Wang Yude was ready to speak.
However, his sister beat him to it.
"Mr. Xiao, I would like to make a request."
"When the contract is signed and the payment is completed, can you divide the payment and pay it to each of us separately?"
"In this case, we will avoid secondary distribution."
Upon hearing this, the rest of the Wang family all echoed.
Wang Yude's face darkened instantly, his expression was very ugly and a bit embarrassing.
Obviously, the relationship between the Wang brothers and sisters is not as harmonious as they showed.
Xiao Ran had already expected this situation.
He smiled and nodded.
"Of course, no problem. As long as the total price remains unchanged, you can choose any payment method."
"But this must be written in the contract to avoid any legal disputes in the future."
"My personal lawyer has drafted the contract. You can take a look at it first. If you have any questions, we can discuss them on the spot."
After finishing speaking, he forwarded the contract that David had just sent to the Wang brothers and sisters.
Next, these prodigal sons began to review the contract and discuss it in low voices.
Xiao Ran took Elaine out of the reception area to admire the treasures on display.
As soon as they reached a museum shelf and before they could stand still, Boss Zhai and several other antique dealers came over.
Coming closer, Boss Zhai immediately said impatiently:
"Mr. Xiao, now that you have visited and evaluated all the goods in Songshizhai, you will be able to get them in your pocket soon."
"After you get these treasures, can we talk about the transaction?"
"To be honest, we don't want to enter the treasure mountain and come back empty-handed!"
Xiao Ran looked at these persistent guys, pondered for a moment, and then whispered:
"It seems that you are very persistent. In this case, it would be a bit unkind for me to refuse."
"When I successfully get everything in this store, you can choose two treasures to buy, but only two."
"And it depends on what you pick. There are some treasures that I won't sell."
"As for the transaction price, it is 20% off the market price of those treasures."
Upon hearing this, several antique dealers immediately beamed with joy.
"Great! Mr. Xiao, if everyone can pick two things, we will be satisfied."
Before the cheers could end, Xiao Ran poured a basin of cold water on them.
"Mr. Zhai, in this situation, before new sales channels are developed, you'd better keep your wallet tight, cash is king!"
"No one knows how long this situation will last, one year, two years, three years? Or even longer."
"ah!"
Boss Zhai and the others exclaimed in surprise and were all stunned.
They simply cannot imagine that this special situation will last for two to three years or even longer!
If that happens, even if their antique stores don't go bankrupt, their lives will be extremely difficult.
After a pause, Xiao Ran continued:
"Due to the absence of Chinese buyers and tourists, almost all top auctions of Chinese antiques, cultural relics and artworks have been cancelled."
"That's why Songshizhai used this method to liquidate. If the situation was normal, they would never be so miserable!"
"You are also doing business with Chinese buyers and tourists. You still need to think about how to do your next business!"
After the words fell, Boss Zhai and others fell silent, their faces extremely solemn.
At this moment, that guy Wayne suddenly walked over.
"Sean, I have people buy the portable safes, aluminum alloy suitcases, and painting bags and tubes of various sizes that you want."
"All the boxes, large and small, add up to a total of two to three hundred, and there are dozens of painting bags and tubes. If they are not enough, you can buy more."
"The security company has also been contacted, and the escort fleet can come at any time to transport these goods."
Xiao Ran nodded and then whispered:
"Okay, everyone has worked hard. I will thank you very much later."
"Put the things outside first. After I finish signing the contract with the Wang family, I will bring someone in to pack them."
"You're welcome, Sean."
Wayne nodded in response, then turned and walked out the door.
In the live broadcast room, there was an exclamation of exclamation.
"Holy shit! This is the rhythm of a house raid! Xiao Ran is really cruel and ruthless!"
“But it’s really a beautiful job, and it’s very relaxing!”
Marionette exclaimed.
"Xiao Ran, what do you mean by this? Do you want to transport everything back to Los Angeles?"
"How many days do you plan to stay in San Francisco? When can everyone bid on the treasures you found?"
Brother Hua asked in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately responded in a low voice:
"That's right, I'm going to transport everything back to Los Angeles and clean it up slowly when I get back."
"Everyone, please wait patiently for a few days. Don't be afraid of being late for a good meal!"
Following his words, sighs immediately sounded in the live broadcast room.
In the blink of an eye, more than an hour passed.
After having a quick snack, Xiao Ran and the others continued to admire the various treasures displayed in Songshizhai.
Suddenly, there was a roar of a helicopter engine outside the antique store.
No need to ask, it was that guy David who brought the people here.
